I recently set up the dev tooling required to develop a Win UI 3 app. I had some ideas for toy projects that could benefit from being native GUI applications. For example, I was thinking of a Picasa replacement that supported some niceties that I would have liked, such as true HDR photos (10-bit, wide gamut, high brightness).

This should be easy, right? As far back as Vista, the WPF framework had 16-bit and even 32-bit per channel wide-color, and HDR UI support.

Win UI 3 -- the absolutely latest / next-generation user interface framework for Windows removed all such support, scraping it out of the WPF SDK that it was based on. Everything is SDR, 8-bit, and sRGB only forever now!

Meanwhile, Web dev, Macs, TVs, and phones are fairly consistently wide-gamut and HDR capable.

The best GUI app I can make for Windows is a web application.

No wonder Microsoft themselves use Electron.

To be honest, I'm not really sure? I'm going through my settings now and can't find anything. Only multi display setting I have enabled is "When using multiple displays, show my taskbar apps on TASKBAR WHERE WINDOW IS OPEN", under Personalization/Taskbar in the settings app.

But you're now getting the worst of both worlds. It was not uncommon back in the day you could buy a copy of the software which was bundled with the source code. Now you have to pay and you don't have the source code. You're just trapped into an ecosystem you have no control over.

I of course understand your point that software developers need to pay rent, but i'm interested in exploring other possibilities, such as non-profits gathering donations to pay for development/UX (like framasoft does).

Now, the same problem applies to all kinds of workers, from bakers to carpenters. If we take a look at the wider picture, why would anyone have to pay for rent and food? Wouldn't we all be better off if we did what we loved and shared unappreciated tasks more equally so that money doesn't get involved?

It seems like we have a "these people are not getting paid enough to pay for basic survival while doing their critical job" discussion every other week.

Of course, but they shouldn’t be hit with an arbitrary fine on top of that. The fine goes directly to the government’s coffers, and not to cover any liabilities incurred.

It’s kicking a man who’s already down.

Not necessarily. In most cases it just didn’t make sense for them to hire a lawyer who specialised in the GDPR (I believe they were hard to come by and expensive in the US and the rest of the world), so they just decided to HTTP 451 instead.

The article is paywalled so I'm not sure what Graeber says, but I'm pretty happy with the system Ireland has recently being following. Essentially put difficult questions to the public through a citizen's assembly, random 99 citizens who are basically in a jury like system.

Ads can be applicable to you, but not in your interest. My go-to example is if they target certain political views in order to discourage them from voting.

That said, non-targeted ads doesn't mean irrelevant. They can be contextual, e.g. DuckDuckGo's ads are not targeted, but based on your search terms.
Yes and the ads are carefully crafted to stay within the law. It's not a drug; it's a dietary supplement that may help with your condition, but (small print) it wasn't officially evaluated and it's doesn't replace a treatment. Technically true and legal, but it's not what the customer think it is.

Overall it's a net negative for the individual customer and society at large.
It's actually getting wild "out there". WordPress was once a really good choice for a blogging platform. Now, majority of the "popular" plugins are strictly businesses. E.g. You can use our API for 100 calls a month, either pay up to use this plugin more or wait another 30 days to get another 100 calls.

And yes, it is mostly the cost of convenience. For example, I manage my own server not because it's cheaper (which it is), but because I don't need to pay extra $50 a month to get a "managed" experience.

Same goes for very mundane tasks like image compression. You can pay some company to do it on your behalf, or you can go to GitHub and grab a fully functional library to compress 1,000 photos in an instant.

One thing that I think is usually absent from this is the fact that most copyleft licenses are being interpreted by the industry has having a SaaS loophole[1][2], which makes the economics of developing software much more attractive. On one hand you get to use all GPL'ed code for free, so your developers have to build much less things in house, whereas you also exploit the economics of rent vs sell as other commenters have explained. It's a double whammy for the software industry which would have high margins by just using a "sell" model anyway.

That being said I believe the SaaS loophole plays a big part in this, a lot of code that is out there today would have to be re-written to be sold in a traditional model and still be compliant with copyleft software licenses and usually this is not mentioned in these discussions.

When people simulating real-time physics, it's almost always a bad idea to use semaphores like that. Instead, all pieces of the systems are normally simulated in lockstep. If the system has sufficient computations, a simulation step can be parallelized to use multiple CPU cores, but they are synchronized at every timestep of the simulation. Otherwise it will inevitably fail, there are way too many reasons for unfairness in the scheduler: other processes, hyperthreading, NUMA, unequal cooling/throttling, and more.
I think you can still advertise health and religion related items you just can't use a persons health or religion as target parameter anymore.
As the draft says [1]:

> Trivially convertable to SPIR-V

> Constructs are defined as normative references to their [SPIR-V] counterparts

> All features in WGSL are directly translatable to [SPIR-V]

> Features and semantics are exactly the ones of [SPIR-V]

> Each item in this spec must provide the mapping to [SPIR-V] for the construct

So WGSL is essentially just an alternative representation for SPIR-V.

But I don't see how this compromises the viability of webgpu.

This is important to realise:

> Lawmakers will now have to negotiate with the Council, representing the 27 EU governments, which has shown no interest in tackling online advertising in the DSA.

As I understand it, the vote essentially determines the mandates of the representatives who will negotiate with the Council on behalf of the Parliament. Out of that negotiation will emerge the act that will actually come into effect.
Google does not show any retargeting ads on SERPs?

Edit to add: I’m into 3D printing and when I search “new printer” from a normal tab, I get a mix of 2D and 3D printer ads on my Google SERP. From the same device and search term 10 seconds later in an incognito tab, I get only ads for 2D printers.

(I’m fine with this state as I’m interested in 3D printers, but it seems like I’m being targeted here rather than just my search terms being targeted.)
Not surely, but they should be vetted and government CAs should be made exempt in my opinion until the user explicitly allows them. Otherwise the chain of trust is compromised. It will never be perfect, but government ambitions will get more specific if a newer generation takes hold in politics.

They don't want to ban targeted ads based on political views? Is this because the politicians don't want to ban the techniques that they use to get reelected?

And do they want to ban ads targeted by "customer lists". Both Google Facebook allow advertizers to upload email or FB-ID lists, and will target an ad to show it only to people on the list. This (http://ghostinfluence.com/the-ultimate-retaliation-pranking-...) feels a lot more spooky to me than advertizing target to wide categories like health - I don't want or need to see products that are are for menopausal women, impotent men, or deaf old people since I'm not in any of these category.
Well the same is true with any selfhosted office suite. With of course the main difference that Office365 is limited by Microsoft APIs, and downtime is not dictated by your bug usage or infra. Good luck working when Azure is down or your have connectivity problems.
I love Dostojewski (german spelling) as well. I just finished "A gentle creature" and once again Dostojewski caught me off guard. He has such a talent in describing human behavior and motive - especially the morally ill traits. I believe there is a piece for everyone of us that we can profit of and understand ourselves better. This recent story opened my eyes for some inner happenings that I feel and know of but couldn't really work out. This really set me on a trip forwards. Thanks Fjodor!

> I think regular cannabis use attracts a certain type of person. That type of person can vary in their ability and intelligence, just like any type of person.

This matches my personal experience as well. I’m good friends with someone that holds a high-level FAANG position and consumes weed every day. While working. Attending meetings, coding, managing large teams, the whole she-bang. It’s unbelievable. They say it “calms their thoughts” and allows them to focus.

If I tried to code while high, I would end up wasting 3 hours just fiddling with the text colors in the IDE or just space out in a wormhole of deep introspection.

I think you're thinking too small. Someone with clout would need to talk to each government and get them to agree to a set of rules around this and consequent taxation. The alternative is getting no income from this, why not just make it clear and simple and make it make sense for each country.

Private jet charters? I wish i was that rich.

Senior living homes, hearing aids? My father climbed Elbrus this summer.

The list goes on...

Apart from remarketing ads - like if i visited online store for telescopes, i see astronomy-related ads (plus yes, astrology-related too lol) for a while - almost all other ads i'm seeing online are truly bizarre and have nothing in common with what i want to buy. At the same time, badly needed things that the search engines could provide, are sorely missing - for example, many convenient flight connections are searchable manually online - by combining separate flight legs myself - but missing from online searches on sites like skyscanner...

We can talk about opt-in after we first ban general use.
