The world's already full of businesses that've found ways to turn Status Symbolism into elite, exclusive markets. A significant slice of the world's wealth (certainly dwarfing NFTs!) is routinely used in such manners.

Most give the purchaser a physical bauble to go along with their status symbol, but at heart, the excess of trillions being slung around daily for the purpose of symbolic elitism is certainly nothing new created by NFTs.

They merely embody the concept in a new, ever-so-slightly more useless (than much of the world's spending) manner. But let's not pretend they're some grand new evil the likes of which we've never seen. Oh no. They are certainly not that.

And that is my answer. What happened to them? Nothing. Merely the inevitable, slow collective realisation that the status symbolism embodied by NFTs is actually a pedestrian, everyday concept, and thus perhaps not so special or innovative after all...
I do the catch-all too, it works with the free version but will it still work with the paid version, even the cheapest tier ? At this point I have given around a crazy number of stuff@my.domain addresses, some of them for pretty important stuff, and while I don't mind paying for the service (I really like the GMail UI, matter of taste I suppose, and that justifies the price for me), I really need the feature as loosing it would be nearly as bad as loosing the "primary" email address.
I get the used dosage every three month and I can assure you, it is very noticeable.

However, I have no idea how other sedations feel, so who knows if they are a good placebo. Could be.
AFAICT they were a loss-leader with some of the cheapest cloud storage prior to this update, and this brings them closer in price to AWS/Azure (although still slightly cheaper). I wouldn't expect price changes from other platforms in response to this.
I suspect it will look like Amsterdam, or Venice, or any number of cities that figured out how to cope with existing at or below sea level.
The experimental numbers haven’t changed since Interop 2022 was announced.

That is, there hasn’t been a new version of Safari Technology Preview, which is what the experimental numbers are based on.
You’re amortising a lot of software developers and sysadmins with your AWS bill. It’s also in-trend so a bit premium.

They’re not reasonably equivalent. But I don’t doubt that Amazon is laughing to the bank still.
My licensing exam was computer adaptive. We were wanded, turned pockets inside out, videoed. You couldn't eat, take jackets on our off or anything. Lots of rules around how you sat at the table. These must be a fair bit lower tech for the cheating to work. You could wear earplugs and earmuf style sound suppression which I did. Wouldn't be super difficult to have audio in -> but I don't think it would have done much good.
Sure and that's what this library bridges. I see the appeal in remix for building interactive apps the "remix way" with forms, relying on web/http conventions etc. I also like that it brings nested routing back to metaframeworks. None of that will translate well to native. As an api+website framework it doesn't look more appealing then next.js to me, which is a little more unopinionated and thus easier to adapt to cross-platform.
You "get along" until you don't. What better moment would be for that than a war?
That's correct. And we can't draw false equivalences either; we should consider the scale of the wrong. For example, I would consider loss of life to be quite a bit worse than loss of Yandex.
I wonder what is going on at Strava. It feels like peak Strava was some time around 2018. Since then, it seems like features have only been getting disabled, hidden behind opt in flags, or moved to the paid plans. I completely understand the decision to move things to paid since their service does cost a lot to run and the subscription isn't expensive, but where are all the new and cool features that should have come out over the last few years?

And I wonder if the article is correct in that they are pivoting away from segments. That seems strange since segments seem like the most compelling feature.
Personally I really hope they don't add this. Imagine how annoying to have to decline a "please turn on notifications" on every news site on your phone (which you're spammed with on desktop).
Thank you! It would be great if you could share feedback via email, Discord or Twitter!
OpenSearch is a standard. Visit Yandex in Firefox today, and you'll see Firefox happily offer to add Yandex to your search dropdown. The green plus shows you that it's an option.

It's also in the right click menu for the address bar.

Why does Mozilla need to include Yandex as a default option?
There's also some nodes that only work on the paid version (or add a watermark if you try to use them) and there might be restrictions on using OpenFX plugins.

IMO, Resolve Studio is pretty reasonably priced considering that version upgrades have been free for many years (unlike Adobe and others which cost hundreds annually), but it's not FOSS and there's still people for which a $300 one-time purchase might be too much.
> On reasonably non-esoteric desktop hardware it's robust. On most laptops (unless you're using an external 4K screen) it's also perfectly fine.

I hate when people trying to defend Linux prepend their "defenses" with "most X", "reasonably Y". Because once the the counterexamples of stuff not working in Linux show up, they just shield on "well, I didn't say all of them", "well, it works for me".

Look, I've been a Linux developer and power user for 20 years, I've compiled Linux Kernels several time, I've tinkered with OSS, ALSA, Pulse, WinModem firmwares, USRobotic modems, SSD/Trim params, Bluetooth, printers, games, graphic cards, countless Linux versions and whatnot.

My current PC is Linux Mint exclusively (I even play on it using steam ), but being realistic, it is NOT the case that Desktop Linux is "robust" on PCs or Laptops. There is always something, there will always going to be an issue that will make you have to tinker with it one way or another always.
Until Apple moved on, then obviously they had to respond, because waging a version number war is better than actually making a decent, usable OS.

Hint: people don't buy Macs because they're at version 11 (or 12 now), they buy it because the experience is much more polished than whatever Microsoft has been puking out in the last decade.
Sorry, but not. I keep my 9-5 strict. I'm not into the game of getting more money in exchange for my scarce free time. If the company needs people to work on Sunday mornings, they can hire them (i.e., SREs). I can't understand why it is becoming so normal for regular (senior) developers to become slaves of our companies by working more than 40h/week; the general excuse is "you build it, you run it, you fix it". If we are into writing robust software, I'm all in, but that's a totally different thing.
> Studies done on the negative heath consequences for recreational users are largely irrelevant to medically prescribed users, because your average recreational dose is an order of magnitude (or more) higher than the average prescribed dose. Increase the dose ten-told, it acts like a different drug altogether.

What you're saying applies in other cases, but in the case of ketamine, the recreational dose is one or two orders of magnitude lower than the clinical dose.
Virgin is a DOCSIS service and I'm fairly sure you have to use their CPE so there aren't any connection login credentials that the user has - this is most likely just awful security on their part.
Wohoo to :focus-visible support.

The suffering is over!
I think this can make sense. The recording devices ideally should have their own integrations with Apple Health so the source pushes to all the data repos rather than repos chaining the data along.
This looks great. Love the docs, task board, community and philosophy (focus on good UI/UX, rust for speed). Congrats! Good luck in gaining traction for the project!
Don’t misinterpret my comment as approving of this behavior. But it just occurred to me that this is a societal issue not a tech issue. We have billboards on the highway, on buildings, before computers we had tv in the home that pushed ads. So really this is just tech catching up.

70% of the population is overweight, if people can’t bother to care about their body / health then why would they care about being spied on by telemetry or denied access to their licensed content via DRM?

It feels shitty to think about, but it seems like this is just a tech extension to some of the flaws in society, rather than a problem that’s unique to tech.
I love Windows Aero. The "flat" bullshit that came after it is complete garbage.
WebVR 1.1 Removed from Chrome
I don’t believe the author would’ve put the same emphasis on the gender ratio if it was all male speakers.

That they consider an all female group a noteworthy observation is exactly what’s antiquated about this kind of thinking. All male group? Business as usual. But fill the stage with women and suddenly it’s “saying something.” — The implication that Apple is putting them on stage to virtue signaling they’re a female lead company.
How often do doctors even need to do this? Everything they do probably has a standard operating procedure printed out in a binder that can be dictated by a nurse. The training should be in learning how to take those instructions and turn it into action, not that as well as having to memorize all the instructions that are going to be referenceable anyhow.

Maybe if the training were more like the former than the latter, fewer med students and residents would be pulling all nighters on some amphetamine. Personally, going into an ER I'd rather be met with well slept, focused hands that consult the relevant information, rather than a sleep deprived zombie barking out protocol they hypnotized themselves into remembering.
That sounds amazing until you get a system that is complicated and the part of the system you work on relies on an unstable dependency upon which you have no control. Oh no, my service isn't responding to 99.9% of requests within 250ms!? Boom, page at 2am. The service that is responsible for the alert either doesn't have monitoring set up correctly or at all or they aggregate their metrics differently, so on average, all of their calls are 5ms, but for all of your calls, maybe they're taking 2-3 seconds.

It's a nightmare that I escaped after three years. I was driven from a happy person to someone who hated his life. It took me a while to realize it was my job. The worst part is my management told us that the on-call pay was already "baked into your salary." I switched jobs internally. No more on-call. Strangely, I was able to keep my pay without having to wake up in the middle of the night any more.

Oh yeah, and you aren't the only one who wakes up. Someone sleeping in your bed may be an insomniac and may have just fallen asleep. Your alert wakes them. Now they don't get to sleep for the rest of the night. Now you and they are both sleep deprived and irritable. It obliterates personal relationships. Maybe your kids overhear you explaining to someone what is going on in the next room.
Whenever anyone asks you about your job, PTSD triggers and you spend ten minutes venting.

I am so, so, so glad I'm no longer on call. I don't know what they'd have to pay me to get back on it, but it's at least 2x, and even then, I couldn't last for over a year.

You don't get to go to movies. You don't get to join your friends when they go biking or hiking or camping. You get interrupted in the middle of parent-teacher conference. You have a laptop next to you at the 4th of July party. You get interrupted in the middle of a shower. You don't get to host Thanksgiving or Christmas because you may have to work in the middle of making dinner. You're about the roll the dice to take the first turn of a game you've been promising your kids you'd play with them in the first attempt in a long time to be a decent parent, and your alarm goes off, you work for the next three hours, and they play without you.

There is no 40-hour work week for software engineers. There is no union. You work your normal days then you also get to work normal nights. Then you work a normal day again either fixing the problem that caused the alert or spend 6 hours in post-mortems explaining what happened when instead you should be sleeping.
"In 1914, Feminists fought for health care for women" just doesn't have the same click appeal as that title.
Are you getting it all at once or as an infusion? Considering this is given as an infusion over 40 minutes, this seems to be a pretty mild dose consistent with mild analgesia and well bellow the recreation and dissociative doses based on all the charts I just pulled up, but I'm not personally experienced with K ;)
You don't need to touch HTTP to extend features though. Most of what people care about is the HTML/CSS/JS web api which can extend at any time. No user or developer was ever excited about a new version of HTTP which really only helps performance.
Right on, thanks for the answer.
Actually, this is false. Somehow the rest of the world sees America as the ultimate cornucopia! But it is not - even less so in the political life! I always have to pick between two presidential candidates, most of the time hating both with an equal passion! The European model can have issues like the bargaining needed to have a coalition, but it still is much better than bipartisan America giving no chance to any other political platform! Same with many other things 1, 2, 3 - a fourth choice is one too many! This goes against the principles of competition - imagine a world where you only have to pick between Oracle and SQL Server - it would be nightmarish, right? For example, I would vote for a more conservative party, which does not see Climate Change as Al Gore's scheme, meanwhile, have a more practical way to solve climate issues than AOC! So, it's really hard to vote in America if you're not the typical Democrat or Republican who trusts the Party like its God!

After the "special operation" Putin's rating went up - it's very convenient to say the approval rating is manipulated, but I doubt it knowing some Russians personally. Meanwhile, Biden's rating fell. And maybe for a good reason, otherwise being a populist would have brought us WWIII.
> That change is going to probably hurt a lot more than looking left or right.

It would hurt less if we'd spent the last couple of decades thinking and talking about adaptation, and taking steps in that direction, instead of wringing our hands. Or, for that matter, if more coastal cities and nations had acted like the Netherlands, who have been managing sea level rise for more than four centuries now (an excellent example of what adaptation can accomplish), instead of like, for example, the city of Miami, which has had drainage issues for decades and has done nothing about them.
Who pressurized Mozilla this time for this virtue signaling move?

Surely they should have removed Google search by now and replaced it with a privacy friendly alternative since Google has been known to be involved with mass surveillance and having contracts and actively working with the three-letter agencies and simply handing over your data to them? Once again, they still can’t move on from Google nor can they get rid of them since they are on life support with their money.

Firefox is compromised, even with DuckDuckGo. Might as well switch to Brave Browser and use Brave Search.
So true. When Chrome is first with a new CSS feature, it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread.

When Apple does it, it’s looked at with derision.
How do you run a major corporate Twitter and not realise audience is in various countries and thus laws.

Esp for a UK group - the threshold for getting into trouble in UK for opening mail is quite high legally
Right, I concede that "developer evangelist [...] at the company's Ignite conference" is slightly more reputable than just "random dev". That said I don't believe it materially changes the argument.
Maybe the earpiece transmits sound conductively? When I go to the ENT's office, the audiologist does some tests on me with conductive headphones and usually the point of contact is my skull an inch or two from my ear
You know how you can tell you have a good propaganda machine? It's when you launch a war, your poll ratings shoot up. When you kill loads of people in your war, it doesn't come out in the newspapers, it comes out in the Lancet, two years after all the depleted-uranium dust has settled.

That's the first gulf war.

In comparison, the Ukraine-Russia conflict is honestly the worst war from a propaganda perspective, for the aggressor, in living memory. If you're at the point where you have to eradicate independent media just to stem the bleeding from every somewhat-honest person's first impression of what you've done, you've completely lost control of the narrative.

Obviously, it is a war of aggression, but that's true of a lot of wars in my lifetime. Rarely has a war of aggression in modern times raised so much opprobrium, and the basic reason for this is the absolutely puny soft power of Russia.
My suggestion to improve the algorithm adds no barriers to the user. Reddit is already using an algorithm to sort comments ("Best", no idea how that works), so it's certainly feasible that they could either improve that, or offer alternative algorithms like "Insightful" or "For You" like I recommended in the article.

The modal on downvote does add a barrier, but maybe it would reduce downvote=disagree. Or maybe not. I don't know. Either way it could be worth testing, though obviously wouldn't be as impactful as changing the algorithm.

Happy to hear recommendations on subreddits on higher quality discussion, especially pertaining to things like politics and current events where it's very difficult to find high quality discussion.
Ukraine War – Where Is the US Navy?
I'm going through this right now.

Really great team, great project, great codebase, loved a lot of things about it.

Then a leadership change happened. I've got a new job, gave my notice, and hopefully will keep in touch with the people I like here. Very bittersweet time.
The Benefits of Venture Capital in Web3
Do you know how many things are across from the Pentagon? Why would anyone bother smoke-testing a crosswalk?
You should definitely switch to Linux. It works very nicely, but frankly even if it did not it is less infuriating dealing with technical issues that will probably be fixed eventually than tolerating daily disrespect from some corporate overlord who feels entitled to dictate how you use your computer.

It's like quitting social media - mildly inconvenient, vastly better for your mental health.
I suspect I'll end up using this ASAP just for the useParam hook, as it's a pattern I like quite a lot (page state as query params) and is a big ol' pain to maintain and deal with edge cases.
And Aspel, or Contpaq for accountants in Mexico. Among countless of real software used for real productive things.
If you dismiss that it’ll never come back again. This goes for all their music, tv, etc. services. And this also goes for features like Siri and Apple Pay, if you opt out there’ll be a reminder in settings and if you decline it’ll never come back.
Here's from Vangers' website https://web.archive.org/web/20100114235648/http://www.kdlab....:

> All the worlds in Vangers were created with Surmap A.R.T., K-D Lab's proprietary terrain editor, and the accompanying voxel-polygonal technology.

How do you figure you can render a voxel without any sort of polygon?
It seems like your thesis is we can make them cheap, let's just throw them out?

What is it about sustainability that is wrong to you, why is pollution and resource wasting better?

Dishwashers to me seem quite simple (compared to say washing machines; just based on having repaired all my home appliances). No reason a dishwasher can't last a lifetime.

My mother's first microwave is still going, about 40 years old, meanwhile newer appliances last the mandated 2y warranty period then break very soon after.

We've been seduced by shiny new things and it's pathological for our species. Companies have played to it because those interested in only money have taken them over.

We're in for a World of hurt this Century as energy and resources shortages hit, I wonder if we'll learn.
> WebKit added support for lazy-loading images with the loading attribute on the <img> element, providing web developers with an easy way to instruct the browser to defer loading certain images until the user scrolls near them

Maybe there's hope that I can then just turn this off on a browser level? I've got gigabit internet at home, and your images popping in on scroll makes it feel like I'm on dial up.

Lazy loading images is at best user hostile bandwidth saving, and it's not even that much in this day and age.
I keep a backed up list of all my 2fa codes in a password/key encrypted storage. I am trying to avoid the kind of situation you described. I have A LOT of accounts with 2fa now, and losing access to the 2fa app would be an incredibly frustrating issue as I would lose access to many accounts.

At one point I actually had a couple backup codes for some important accounts in my wallet, such as to my email. My thinking was that if I ever lose my phone and need to login to my Google account on someone else's device I would at least have access to some backup codes to get me in ASAP.
Concurrency Deep Dives: Building a Java timer/scheduler from scratch
Yeah that is fair, there is a lot of people who need certain software which is not available on linux, but I was wondering what can the linux community do? I mean the guy at the parent comment described a problem which was easily solvable, and other people instead decsribed problems on which linux has no control over, if the vendor of the software you need for you business doesn't bother to create a software you need for your business for linux, bring it to the vendor of the software you need for you business, not to linux
Maybe they just need a better slogan... like... build browser better ;)
I beg you to create a bunch of files with >35 char names and then try to work with them. I bet you'll be looking at all that wasted blank space before and after the text box and wanting to scream WTF at the dev team that lets this obnoxious user experience stand.
> Google cloud has to be the most confusing product suite known to mankind. What an unbelievable mess.

No, that's AWS.
Which is weird given that the term that allows them to modify the terms explicitly referenced number 18 as an exception.

The only valid argument for it being legal to discontinue this on you is that G-Suite is not GApps, and both are discontinued services anyway, with Google Workspace being the current offering. Which is presumably what they would argue if sued over this.

Their research doesn't just integrate depth maps into a TSDF - it uses NN's to incorporate surface priors.

I don't recall you having similar real-time meshing functionality in 2016-2017, Andrew. Can you show what you had?

As far as I'm aware, Abound was the first to demo real-time monocular mobile meshing: on Android in early 2017 (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9CpT-sy7HE), and iOS in early 2018 (e.g. https://twitter.com/nobbis/status/972298968574013440).
> Developers can now enable Navigation Preload in ServiceWorker to improve load performance and avoid ServiceWorker startup delays that block network requests

Does that mean <link rel='preload'> finally works on Safari?
