Interesting! I had went out of my way to add support for TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA384--because I consider older versions of Safari critical for my audience--but the way I did that dragged in TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_CBC_SHA; I've gone ahead and filtered out SHA1 (so maybe / hopefully this will help).
Not sure about this implementation, but most virtualization implementations, including most KVM/libvirtd/QEMU ones, support shared directories.
An issue with wheels is that bringing them up to correct tension takes time, even if someone or something is guiding the process. If the wheel is going out of true, then it wasn't properly tensioned. In that case, a machine isn't going to motivate a shop to do a better job. Deming said: "Quality control is a management problem."

According to fairly widespread bike folklore (i.e., in the absence of real stats), machine built wheels tend to start out with insufficient tension. Correcting that one issue will result in a more stable and longer lasting wheel. I've seen this on two bikes in my family's fleet, both were new from bike shops, and of reputable brands. Our oldest bikes, with hand made wheels, have stayed put for decades.

Nothing of value to add, just to thank you sincerely for putting into words what I had been feeling for the last 3-4 years, but didn’t know how to do it concisely or how not to sound like a Cassandra. My individual solution is to stay employed in an IT job that pays the bills and that’s it, I do not want to change/improve the world through IT, much less so do I want to do something interesting at work. Ellul was right.
In the big picture Facebook etc are a bit of a blip. Tech as in antibiotics, sewers etc have increased life expectancy at birth from 20-40 years to 80 or so, famines are rare, stuff like smallpox gone. Going forward we have AI, uploading, immortality, interplanetary travel and the like. I'd chill out over the current stuff.

Aslo check out stuff like Pinker on war https://www.ted.com/talks/steven_pinker_the_surprising_decli... and Ridley https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMxe73iJPbo It's easy to think things are getting worse because that's what the press reports because 'horror crash' get's more clicks than 'things not bad really' but if you look at history they are getting better in most ways. For instance as to things getting Orwellian, Orwell was writing after the holocaust, WW2 and communist famines killing tens of millions. Facebook ads are quite mild in comparison.
2D panels in VR are interesting for me, but not a killer feature.
What would be a killer feature would be a VR designer for blender, unreal, unity etc.

Blender starts going there, but not yet for SVR: https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/2.83/getting_started/conf...

I think, this would be a way to really differentiate from closed platforms (which I also expect Apple RealityOS to become).

Unfortunately, the expectation that easy to use apps and tools for creating and consuming VR content will only be available only on closed platforms is quite reasonable.
As much as I wish you were wrong, from what I see in avionics, I suspect you will be right. Many of the companies developing these products simply do not pay enough or have a suitable company culture to attract top-quality software developer talent. These companies will ride out legacy practices and mindsets for as long as they can get away with it.
Yep, sadly, I totally agree with you.

Some/Many employers are really attached to controlling their employees -> so they want to see them on time, at their job etc.

Nobody will rebel, when told to come back at work and stop remote working.

A lot of people are already so dependent on the system that they will fight to protect the idea: "Oh but it's important for social life to actually go to work".

Wealthy Romans also did this a lot; typically under the guise of building a _family_ mausoleum, and in no way centered around the builder, goodness no.

Actually, ‘mausoleum’ is an example in itself; the building that the word derives from was almost certainly built during the lifetime of the guy who was buried there.
Clojure has that built-in and it’s great. Works wonders when testing things too: write a small test in a comment block and you can edit/evaluate a function then move to the comment and see the result immediately.
I wonder why statements that are devoid of meaning would stimulate vehement disagreement.
I grew up, to a large extent, on various message boards in the 00's, and I remember when many of us got blogs and it was great. But this was the major change with Facebook, and that's really what made it mainstream to put your thoughts and feelings on the internet. Suddenly you were the same self on the internet as off it.
In December 2021, I decided to check the state of macOS virtualization using parallels 17.

Parallels has exceeded my every expectation and seems to be full of “It just works!” Presently running an instance of macOS 10.8 (Mountain Lion) in Parallels 17, but I don’t know if it offers GPU support.

Maybe check using a trial version?

What? To keep your existing license you copy the text of the MIT license, add the statement about requiring a logo and remove the parts about being able to use the code commercially, and add an extra paragraph that has the text you already have: to use commercially you have to sponsor. It’s not about changing your terms, it’s about being clear about what license applies. Hybrid with MIT and other implies that the MIT license somehow applies yet it does not since your “other” invalidates a chunk of what the MIT license allows. Just removing those bits and not calling it MIT is enough.

If that significantly cuts into your time to do other stuff then I don’t know what to say.

> if somebody who is willing to pay approaches me with the same concerns

I’m not concerned about the license per se. It wouldn’t stop me from paying if I wanted to use your software. It’s just that to everyone looking, before even evaluating it, you’re sending a dishonest message, that somehow the MIT license applies when it clearly does not.

I would create a license.txt file that contains a copy of the MIT license text with the commercial use phrasing removed, the need for displaying logo added a second paragraph before the warranty disclaimer stating that you may use the software commercially so long as you sponsor (same text you already have). Then I would link it from the readme with an explanation: proprietary license that is similar to the MIT license except with the conditions of logo and for commercial use requiring sponsorship (existing text more or less). Clear, simple and should take you no more than ten minutes to fix.

My objection is that you are claiming it’s under MIT license and using the MIT licenses name recognition, while applying changes that very clearly make it not MIT license at all.
Transitioning an existing C codebase to checked C has to be easier than transitioning to Rust.
An important difference between tobacco companies and big tech is that the latter sells tools to political campaigns.

So far as I know, there was never a system where each cigarette could advertise a politician, but if there were, when world today may look different.
One space after a period. Not two!
It shouldn't, but as network effect shows it works. It is easy. It provides some (felt) value for the people using it.

A cigarette does the same. It provides value the moment it is lit and the first drag enters the lung.

I quit smoking a little more than 9 years ago. There are still quite a few moments I miss this felt value.

I quit Facebook about a year ago. I still keep the account but removed everything I ever posted there. Still as I recently started to do genealogy my SO showed me the groups she uses for that on Facebook (it is the only thing she does there). So probably I will start using FB again once I dig deeper into my ancestors as these groups are really helpful and provide value.

If these groups were some other place I would gladly be there. Sadly they are not.

You need to edit spongebob-cli to add the arguments to the code where it calls mpv. It sounds like you're just running it and providing the arguments to its prompt.
We worked with Continuity for our raise. PG was not involved.

They definitely required balance sheet, income statement, financial forecasts etc.

Much more than a deck and a one page memo. It all has to do with what stage you are raising at.
Hi - I work on proof systems for Mina. Our proof system does not require any trusted setup. It uses a polynomial commitment scheme based on the setupless scheme used in bulletproofs (the version we use is close to the one described in this paper https://eprint.iacr.org/2020/499.pdf), which is based on the hardness of discrete-log.

Some SNARKs use pairing-based polynomial commitment schemes, which require a trusted setup (and some require a trusted setup for other reasons.)
You might be able to go to reveddit.com and run your profile through it?

It shows banned and shadow-banned content.

Subreddits are banning people for simply participating in blacklisted topics / subreddits.

Reddit's censorship has gotten so bad I think it's a real societal risk considering how prevalent it is.
>no reliable way to get a fixed income

You could buy an annuity from an insurance company. A quick Google search shows that $2mil should buy a 40 year old about $70k/year for the rest of their life.
Probably a lot.

It is impossible to realistically evaluate yourself --- due to obvious and unavoidable bias.
>> find it quite interesting that no single human ever has achieved even close to [160 years].

Human mortality varies widely, but one relationship seems constant: death rate increases exponentially with age. A mortality table from 2011 shows males age 40 have a death rate of 2.1 per thousand; at age 100 the death rate is 357.9 per thousand. That's an increase of a factor of 170 over 60 years, or about 9% per year. Mortality graphs are almost straight lines on semilog plots. Different groups (men versus women, different countries, etc.) show different y-intercepts but the slopes of all these mortality curves is about the same.

From this we can deduce that males aged 104 (in this sample) have about a 50% chance of dying within the next year: another way of saying their life expectancy is 1 year. Mortality rates which increase 9% a year, will double in 8 years. So a male aged 112 will have a life expectancy of 6 months. At age 120, 3 months. And so on.

That's why we don't see many humans older than 110 or so, and why no one has lived past 130.

Reddit will ban you if they detect that you are using multiple accounts, especially if you get banned from a sub. Just changing IP and create a new account doesn't necessarily work. Neither does just changing browsers, you have to go an extra step and change the fonts you have on your computer because they obviously use the font list for fingerprinting. And also block WebGL for reddit domain.

All that effort isn't worth it IMHO for a site that has a very bizarre policy as what content or speech they find acceptable and what they don't. There is a few good subs yes, personally I can't support a website where its admins let the website be moderated by very questionable individuals, sex offenders when there are minors on their websites, and let these mods manipulate people with mental issues and autists into delusion and nonsense.

There's a fundamental problem that not many people see. It's our attitude towards time.

This attitude is setup as an unfair game. Instead of just living our lives alongside time, we are actively fighting against the time we have and wanting to make every second count.

We then go to these platforms to find some sort of social validation and compare ourselves to others in the process. This makes us more lonely than ever. That gives us some sense of failure in our own lives as we might not be as successful or as far along in our journey as other people who are publicly sharing theirs. It's a losing game. The house always wins.

It's not about blaming humanity or ourselves for letting it get this bad. It's about taking drastic action today to do your part. Practice digital minimalism and have digital sabbaths on the weekends. Only use technology when it's necessary for you. Find better ways to spend your time on things you're truly passionate for. It's a long journey, but it sure as hell is worth it and makes you happier.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "engineering". Is the government supposed to fund a professor's company somehow? Is it supposed to be through the university?

Some of that does happen now, but it always starts out as research. Many universities have a "industry partnership" program, either directly selling the research or starting companies to commercialize the research directly.
> maybe each SSE response re-sends headers, which can be larger than the message itself?

That's (long) polling, not SSE. The only overhead for SSE are the "data", "event", etc pseudo header names and possibly some chunked-encoding markers. Both are tiny though.
You should’ve seen the storm of outrage on Twitter though. It’s actually rather a charitable take on the typical mob mentality that was on full display.

A single deep breath and a moment’s consideration would have revealed that this kind of thing is totally normal in space exploration. The outrage was driven purely bu the fact that it was Musk, and by the wording of the report, along the lines of “evil billionaire’s out of control rocket slams into moon.”
Degrees get verified on background checks. If an employer wants to age discriminate, that won't stop them.
Don't think of the correlation as between WalMart's low pay and the current wave of shoplifting as being direct, think of as karma.

For decades WalMart has pioneered low prices and below-sustenance wages. For much of America WalMart is the face of devastated small towns and the complete loss of local economies.

It's probably not employees of WalMart stealing steaks and single pairs of underwear. It's probably everyone else who no longer has a local job opportunity, has lower wages because their family business folded to WalMart, or has trouble feeding their kids because the closest job now only pays $12/hr because _all they have to compete with locally is WalMart_.

You cannot artificially depress the wages and economy of an area and then complain that everyone around you is doing poor people things (stealing to stay alive or pay rent). No sympathy for WalMart from me.
Targeting Transparency with Scraping and Cheerio
I once had a conversation with the head of an Aboriginal group in Australia - until recently (i.e. when the Europeans came) they could get by on a couple of hours of hunter-gathering a day and spend the rest of the day enjoying themselves. Makes you think!

This comment should not be disregarded so easily. The reason why deep sequence learning has the best results in generating complex, highly contrapuntal music (it's more like noodling or improvisation than an actual compositional process, but it is generally compelling at its best) is precisely because of the loosely grammar-like structure mentioned in OP. The algorithmic operations they play with are not very well defined but the background theory is sound, and closely reflects what music theorists and composers in general have written about the subject in the 500 years or more it has been seriously studied.

As for deep learning models which create good contrapuntal music, see e.g. 'Biaxial RNN' https://github.com/danieldjohnson/biaxial-rnn-music-composit... by Daniel D. Johnson, who is now at Google Brain but wrote this as an independent(!) researcher. (Note that the existing code requires Python 2.x It would be interesting to forward-port it so it can work with Python 3.x and a maintained version of Theano. Replicating the model using Tensorflow would also be quite worthwhile.)

If you're interested in Bach's work specifically, the "BachBot" and "DeepBach" projects are also interesting but less accessible.

Example output for all of these models can be found on the Internet, just look around for it. The proprietary system AIVA is also worth mentioning because even though it's so proprietary and secretive, the compelling and "serendipitous" music it manages to come up with is a tell-tale sign that it's actually doing well-founded deep learning stuff behind the scenes, much like the aforementioned open systems. Note that much of the released output has been orchestrated (AFAICT) manually by humans, but at some point I was able to find some piano-format reductions that are most likely very close to what the AI actually created, somewhere on the official site.

> It is more complex than that, because certain kinds of cross-site requests has always been allowed. GET and POST requests are allowed

Request headers and body content-type are also a factor for POST, anything which couldn't be set through a FORM is forbidden.

The most common issue is that the request is only simple if its content-type is `application/x-www-form-urlencoded`, `multipart/form-data`, or `text/plain`. JSON POST requests usually run afoul that. The second big issue is setting bespoke headers as only Accept, Accept-Language, Content-Language, and Content-Type (restricted to the above list) are simple. There common sticking points are headers like Authorization.

I define "social media" as anything that manipulates content visibility based on metrics that aren't related to the content itself or user's direct inputs. Because of deliberately deceptive terminology in play this definition will inevitably sound kooky.

Yes, BBSes/forums, chats, NTP news groups and mailing lists are not "social media" in my book. It's important to note that the word "social" in social media was always a kind of marketing ploy.
> The government should be a neutral referee

Has this ever worked in any place on earth ?

Also your very notion of having a referee means applying rules made by a higher entity, which is the gov itself ? Even assuming your vision of the gov just makes fewer simpler rules and don’t change them, we fall into what we are seeing right now with the Olympics: outdated rules that are as arbitrary as it can, and fall short at every corner of reality, gamed through every nook and cranny , with everything staying in place only because the main actors have never been the participants but the countries and corporations.

Wow, that's depressing.

I was in jail with a guy who was a total mess. Nice, but seemed pretty mentally-disabled.

One day a new guy came on the block. "Wow, what is George doing in here?" "You know him?" "Yeah, I know him. He is one of the greatest musicians I ever met. He can play any instrument like a savant. I knew him a few years ago, just after he inherited $4m when his father passed. He ended up getting in drugs and everyone would hang out at his house." "Wow, who was his dealer?" "Who was his dealer?! EVERYONE was his dealer!"

I'd been keeping George in coffee, because he didn't have a single cent on his commissary account (which is rare in jail, even the worst criminals usually have someone out there). Poor George had snorted or injected $4m of drugs and everyone had sold them to him and partied with him until all the money was gone and George's brain was cooked and he went around shaking his fist at the sky until he was arrested. And not one of his hundreds of "friends" would put a cent on his account.
OLED's look better than almost anything, but they start to wear out quickly. If you don't mind replacing an expensive panel every couple years it might be great. If you want to keep it 10 years it needs to be treated carefully or it will look worse than other tech for most of it's life.

One of my OLED panels clearly shows reduced output/color accuracy in areas with r/g/b test screens. The most obvious is 10 minecraft hearts from the HUD on the full-red screen.
