Make this a service that’s integrated into development tools and only bills for the icons that land into production (noninvasively by scanning them at CI stage for example) and you could get business. As of now, the price/icon is only attractive to enterprise who typically already need to design their own icons to establish identity. So you’re left with small scale who may just skip your offering for a completely free icon set.
Is Eating Shiitake Mushrooms Good for You? Here's the Research
The current Indian practice of retroactively applying modern nationhood to prior conflicts to erase them as wars has plenty of historical context. Under that paradigm, there was never war on the Indian subcontinent. Just domestic skirmishes. Between armies. Raised by kings. Of…provinces?
Deep learning libraries are free; GPT-3 is not a library, it's a pretrained model. It's offered (for a fee) through an API. The company offering it (as much as I dislike their naming OpenAI, while being all but open) spent considerable amount of money training it, and is paying more in hardware costs for each instance you send through their API.

Actually, even though training models is very expensive, most models are even available online for free! A large collection is on HuggingFace (including GPT-2, which is essentially a smaller GPT-3), and there are studies proving that the quality is essentially the same. You can literally just download and run them, pretty much like... a free library.
Author here- thanks!

You are totally correct, if Fivetran fails on any of the tables then we'd likely see issues in the tests.

My thinking was this was ok, as I'd prefer my tests to fail than me blindly continue with missing data. Obviously a more sophisticated solution would be to page directly on this, but in the name of minimalism, it seemed like an ok solution.

There's also a Fivetran audit table that I considered using, as it contains data like this:

```
{
"id": "9b21ce1e-6889-4e3f-ab8f-889425d1a9dd",
"_fivetran_synced": "2022-02-04 00:11:27.413 UTC",

"message": null,
"progress": "2022-02-04 00:10:55.757 UTC",
"rows_updated_or_inserted": "3",
"schema": "core_production_public",
"start": "2022-02-04 00:10:57.576 UTC",

"update_started": "2022-02-04 00:10:55.756 UTC"
},
```

But figured that would have the same issue. That said, I think this is a valid approach for anyone with the more sophisticated alerting!
I found that it is possible to turn around my dopamine triggers, away from consumerism. For instance, I use my bike to get food for my family at a local farmers store, 5 km away, once a week. I think of it as going on a hunt - your family needs food, and you can only get it through biking the 80 kg of food that is needed, even when it is raining, snowing, or you are exhausted and really feeling not good. No excuses.

And suddenly, after a while, every time I return from "the hunt", I feel like I accomplished something. I also value the items I carried with my own muscles higher - when I drink a beer, I _feel_ the effort connected to getting it, and I enjoy it more. Going with the car, vice versa, feels like I did not succeed.

I observed that similar tricks work in other contexts for my reward center - e.g. taking the train, instead of flying to a meeting. Or, buying used stuff or repurposing old stuff, instead of getting new stuff. Or, putting effort into getting something _not_ from Amazon, but maybe a local store nearby. You name it. I still use my old bike, which is now 24 years old. If I pass someone on his new race bike, it feels much better than the other way around (passing someone with a brand new car, bike etc.). Suddenly, I don't _want_ a new bike anymore, I feel satisfaction when continuing to use my old bike.

Reflecting on the article - you are in control of your motives and goals (the 'wants'), you do not need to let society or enterprises define those.

> Temples which also acted as banks financing large merchant navies

This literally goes back to the Bronze Age and Carthage. Rome’s public treasury was a temple. (And the claim that India was peaceful before colonisation begs explanation for the country being dotted by gorgeous forts. Who were they fortifying against?)

As someone with Indian heritage, I think I can safely express bemusement at the mirroring of 19th century white ethnocentrism in modern Indian exceptionalism.
The article itself is the citation, and provides plenty of evidence and arguments for this.
A more detailed look isn't as obvious. There is a lot of variation within the big racially defined groups.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_groups_in_the_U...

In many places of the world, certain groups were discriminated against because they were richer than average (Jews in Europe, Chinese in SE Asia, Igbos in Nigeria).
From my personal experience, it's slow, a pain to use outside of a few "happy paths" and there are better options out there

What does Open Source even mean in this context? To me this would mean getting the source files for the icons.
Longer-term, we need to move to browser-native GUI, yep. The nice bits though - the entire document loading, rendering & editing works in the browser now.
I work a lot with icons, even submitted some of my own design to materialdesignicons set.

These sets look nice. However, that's the only good thing about them. Subscription model is ridiculous for this sort of things, licensing is unclear. So I'll pass on using them.
>It would never occur to me to create a programming library where you have the 'basic' open source version and the 'optimized' commercial version.

We can say that this exists for the wireless networking drivers.

Generally IC is marketed with the features enabled with commercial driver, but shipped with open-source driver.
This is very different from learning to index I think. This is about storing data in the weights of a model.
In the original theory of the neutrino they were thought to be massless just like the photon.

However, experimental evidence suggests that observed neutrinos oscillate between the three neutrino flavours over time & the sane way to allow for that theoretically is for them to to have slightly different small masses. The Wikipedia pages on the Neutrino & Neutrino Oscillation give a good overview.
I think it's because there's so much abuse going on. More and more I'm hearing about it becoming normalized to buy a product, use it once for whatever purpose, then return it again.
You could grab quite a lot of this from the OVAL feeds that multiple distros offer.

Getting a verified POC is a much harder problem.
> Between that and how Mobile Firefox still has to use platform browsers

That's only on Apple platforms - FF on Android uses Gecko (but then they go and arbitrarily limit the extensions you are allowed to install anyway).
I beg to differ, and until Rust community acknowledges they are relevant, there are industry domains where C++ will keep its dominance.
I worked for the main commercial alternative (starts with C). The main draw for users was the extensive library of royalty free stock media. Literally millions of items. Also the features were far ahead. Also a sales team and 2000 staff. I guess it all adds up. Maybe start with getting funding and a few account managers?
You should sit down and think about how Google makes money instead of reading whatever is on their support page.
> Runs shockingly smoothly once it starts, though.

On what hardware? I've got a 2019 MacBook Pro with i9 and 32 GB of RAM, and there's a noticable delay (I'd guess 200~400-ish miliseconds) when clicking any elements with Firefox or Chrome.
A more rigorous version of this can be found in the book, Conflict of Visions by Thomas Sowell. What you're calling a lens or worldview, he calls a "vision". He precisely defines two visions that are at opposite ends of an axis and which differ only in a single assumption: an intuition about the span of human nature. He then proceeds to show how this single intuition leads by logical extrapolation when combined with unambiguous facts to lead people to opposing policy preferences.

It's really a very powerful analysis, because it's Occam's Razor compliant. The theory is simple yet has great explanatory power.
> though a small fraction of their total R&D budgets

Not at the time of the grants.
To my knowledge, most of the people working on Rust, the project, are employed full time at Amazon, Facebook, Google, Microsoft etc. There are a few folks who benefit from sponsorship from some crypto firms but I think that’s the minority.

While it’s a legitimate concern that many jobs appear to be from the crypto industry, I wouldn’t worry too much. Whether they’re scams or not, the entire community benefits from the software they sponsor and open source.
Same with the alphabet. Someone has to teach you what A means and how is it pronounced.

That is quite a normal task in human civilization, we do not come out of the womb pre-programmed to be literate.
With LibreOffice, the nice thing is you can chose. if you want all of the above - install the native version.
Also make sure that you print the document with solid bar over confidential text, and then scan it.

Replicating this process digitally is quite hard. Most pdf editors will put a square over the text, so that the original can be easily recovered.
I mean... to be honest is better than most of the personal websites I've seen. But, the execution of the design is spot on, I think part of the success is due to that :P
G suite legacy free edition for personal use
It looks like Google is considering a bespoke solution for the 'G Suite legacy free edition' users for non-business use.

I found the following link in the Workspace help pages:

https://support.google.com/a/answer/60217#nonbiz&zippy=%2Cwhat-if-i-use-g-suite-legacy-free-edition-for-personal-use-and-dont-want-to-upgrade-to-a-google-workspace-subscription

> What if I use G Suite legacy free edition for personal use and don't want to upgrade to a Google Workspace subscription?

> Upgrading to a Google Workspace subscription is a seamless transition for all customers currently on the G Suite legacy free edition.

> However, we understand some customers may not use their G Suite legacy free edition for business and may be interested in other options.

> If you have 10 or fewer users in your group and do not use your G Suite legacy free edition for business, please sign in to your administrator account to provide more information.

> <Sign in to an administrator account (doesn't end in gmail.com)>

> Note that even if you decide you don't want to upgrade to Google Workspace, you'll still retain access to additional Google services and paid content purchased though non-Google Workspace services made with your legacy edition account (such as movies purchased on Google Play). Learn more above.

The <sign-in> link turns into a google form when logged in.
I was able to fill it in and specify that I'm only interested in personal use.

----

From the same page - it also seems like they'll provide a way to migrate to a non-Workspace account:

> If I don’t want to upgrade to a paid subscription, can I transfer my data?

> In the coming months, we'll provide an option for you to move your non-Google Workspace paid content and most of your data to a no-cost option. This new option won't include premium features like custom email or multi-account management.

> You'll be able to evaluate this option prior to July 1, 2022 and prior to account suspension. We'll update this article with details in the coming months.

Well I'm actually up to a $100 now, which is about twice my burn rate, so you might as well say I've broken even already. To the moon, baby.

To be serious, it's notoriously difficult to actually make a profit off search. I guess we'll see if Kagi will be able to eke out a market for itself, that may change things. Right now, I think investors will look at Bing and go "yikes".

Doesn't go to say I couldn't build a fantastic search engine with more resources than my current shoestring budget, the hard question remains: Why isn't this just a waste of money? Would take one hell of a sales pitch to gloss over that concern.
Is there any reason why it's impossible to use iCloud or any Apple sign in? I can't find anything in UTM documentation.
I have a German bank and am a US citizen. No problems here. I've seen this reposted online on several occasions but living here and knowing other Americans here I've not actually heard any stories of people being denied a bank account. No idea if it would work but I suppose you could use something like Wise to bank here - it gives you an IBAN like a normal bank so it should work.
Only to a certain extent. The question is not only if something is possible, but also what the most convenient way to express it is. Effect handlers do have some interesting ideas for programmer-level interface, like user-defined typed commands and dynamic pairing of commands with handlers. In this sense, C++20 coroutines or Boost Context are lower-level, and maybe not the most convenient building blocks for implementing complicated concurrency scenarios, yet alone effects that do not look like concurrency at first sight, like exceptions or different forms of mutable state.
But its not stable/finished - only dead. The devs just left the project. OO has only been getting sparse bug and security fixes for half a decade now. Security issues stay open for years.
That's neat that there is a term (and even a Wikipedia page) for that behavior.

The satisfaction vs usage of angular is astonishing, but I wonder how much of that usage is legacy angular?

One way to read the graph would be that there's a lot of angular just quietly getting on with the job and it's a solid choice, but another would be that there's a large amount of legacy angular out there that people aren't very happy with.
My experience was also very good. I've accidentally racked up like 250 USD in charges, and after contacting support, I was given a refund and just told to be "more careful next time". The support guy also told me that he made a similar mistake when he was paying with it.

On the other hand, the fact that you can't set a hard stop on charges is terrible.
I just want to comment and say thank you for linking to old.reddit instead of the worse standard version.
Disclaimer: My knowledge of pre-western-influenced Indian history comes from reading a (probably bad) translation of the Bhagavad Gita and Wikipedia history summaries - and as such my insight necessarily is slanted. Those sources, though, do make me question your line of argument though, that the Indian subcontinent somehow was run by enlightened merchant/philosopher princes being determined to fair exchange of goods and peace.

Other societies had trade focus - I'm thinking of the Hanseatic League and Renaissance Venice - but they also had a military arm used to "protect trade routes", which all too often meant discouraging/destroying other people trying to attempt trade on the same routes. I would not be surprised if we found the same being true for Indian merchant navies.
>Consider the ampersand symbol "&", which is recognizable to many people who don't know the French word "et".

Which - to nitpick - is actually Latin and pre-dates French by several centuries:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampersand

it has a tradition in English as well, where it has actually more use than in other Latin derived languages, and actually the "ampersand" in English comes from a corruption of "and per se and", losing its original connection to "et".

In Italian the character is called "e commerciale" and in practice it is only used in the (anglo derived) names of firms (besides of course programming), in French it is esperluette, in Spanish it is called directly "et" (or Y comercial) in German it keeps the original relation with "et" as Et-zeichen (also Und-zeichen).

It is a very good example, as it is a symbol that originated in Latin, but which meaning was slightly changed by English and actually remained in common use only there, and survived centuries to "land" as a common symbol in computer scripting and programming.

About the floppy disk icon, it is IMHO a higly debatable one, like the (manilla) folder of the type used in vertical file cabinets, now that these are either completely extinct or only survive in a small number of offices.

I.e. the symbols were created in times where the object represented were extremely common, and as such were a good exemplification of a concept, but think also at the icon Winzip or similar use for compressed archives, a file cabinet inside a (compressing) C-clamp (in times when old-style metal clamps have become rare) compared to the (senseless) one where the symbol is a rectangle with a partially opened zipper.

So, personally I struggle to imagine symbols that could replace them "universally", i.e. there is the risk that any developer/designer would start using different images, creating a modern Tower of Babel.
History of Women in Computing: GNU Girls
Well there is also that Mozilla likes to proclaim how much they care about privacy but then keeps adding telemetry and a million of other ways that the browser leaks your data without any easy way to opt out (when it should ALL be opt in) not to mention the search deal with the anti-privacy devil. So I disagree that we have seen whether a focus on privacy is enough only whether privacy maketing without actually backing it up is enough.
I've heard of Netlify and Cloudfare, but only vaguely know what they are. I think this is about the third time I've said this in these posts but - I will look into this too! Thank you for the suggestions :)
For testing, I've been exploring vitest which is missing from this list because jest looks unmaintained and has growing pain with typescript and esm support.

https://vitest.dev/

It's a drop in replacement for jest. The only change you will need to make in most cases is adding an explicit import for expect, describe, and it. It works without any config with esm and typescript.

It's also 5x faster in development.

It integrates well with vite which is the bundler I use.
Thanks for your answer! I think it‘s a tradeoff between syntactic simplicity and explicitness. I enjoy languages like Scala or Rust that are more explicit, but I enjoy Julia as well (partly because of its simplicity).
See my comment below but again - this is reposted online everywhere but I've yet to encounter this even one time in my 10 years here that US citizens get denied an account or get complaints from their bank about FACTA.
Don't feel too bad about it: in most cases it was previously plundered from someone else.
No, the goal of the laws is to make it more difficult for non citizens to vote. Claiming otherwise is, um (re-reads up thread), disingenuous.
That's a reasonable analysis. I do think Google has grown about as it can legitimately grow, which means the only way it can maintain an appearance of growth is by cannibalizing itself. The increasingly aggressive use of search ads are probably an example of this.
Qt clearly deserves the credit for having a WASM runtime that gets us a working GUI toolkit. But this was still a gigaton of work to pull off inside LibreOffice (starting many years ago, actually natively using Qt as one of the GUI toolkits in the code, over to porting the build system, how the mainloop runs etc etc).

Also note that using Qt here is mostly a shortcut to get a demo out, longer-term we'd want to use native browser gui.
In the UK, so YMMV.

i found a math structure that looks and relates like the blocktime universe
disclaimer, the first page may take a few seconds to load

tl;dr

if you organize binary numbers of even digit lengths into a hierarchy (according to specific rules of unfolding), you end up with something that looks & selfrelates like the blocktime universe, (or less ambitiously, like the tracy widom distribution)

by looks i mean — you can see, in broad strokes, (a) being & nothing, (1) inflation, (2) big bang, (2abcd) the event horizon & cauchy horizon & singularity, (3) expansion, then entropy in three parts, (4) where dark matter is stronger than dark energy, (5) where dark matter is roughly equal to dark energy, (6) where dark matter is weaker than dark energy, (b) heat death

by relates — you can see their relativeish & absoluteish beginnings & ends — where they're coming from & where they're going to

& fascinatingly, the more digits, the more the resolution of phenomena — ex length 4 has no blackholes, length 6 has blackholes, and length 8 has blackholes with hawkings radiation & er = epr, etc

...

altogether, artists take their inspiration from nature math etc & this looks to me like what may have inspired the creator to have made the universe the way it is

...

three analogies that might help you to understand what I'm seeing here

infinite periodic table hierarchy of physics phenomena

pnp spotcheck for processual & physics theories

the serial tone row & ursatz of the universe —

— music is a dimensional reduction of being

...

one important disclaimer

theres no equations, only preschool math & ravensmatriceslike thinking but with force projection

by force projection i mean — the numbers are positions & the relations between the numbers are relations, but you have to inject your own forces & momentums to figure out how to get from one number to another — fortunately we've got the standard model

...

one application of this

we used to think that the big bang came first, then inflation, but now we know that's not true

but what if we had this structure, we could've saved decades of theorizing & checked the answer

similarly, we used to think that blackholes were inescapable, but now we know that they aren't

but what if we had looked at this structure & its relations at digit length 8 & ... etc

...

one fantastic thought

just as physics informed math & now math physics, so too will music inform physics & physics music

...

how did this come about

i wanted to write one really good poem & decided to set it to binary numbers

then i wanted to figure out how to relate my words to these numbers musically
I wanted to try it but I couldn't even get it to work between my and my wife's watch (or my friend's for that matter). It simply doesn't work.

But yeah, I wouldn't see me using this function for the reason you mentioned. It's "too wild". Perhaps now with the user profiles it would be possible to not allow messages when you're in certain modes (like "work" or "do not disturb"). Can you do that or does it have to be always on?
