Why you should care about securing zero trust
I'm not familiar with the UI, but often for high(er) risk operations we in the CS field ask users to fully type the name of something; in this scenario, instead of autocompleting would it have helped to ask the nurse to fully type in the name of the drug?

This will not help the overworked state and the next issue I can see is confusing two drugs (marketing _loves_ to confuse people, given enough phonemes it would be easy to type the full name in wrong); potentially asking for a brief description of what the caregiver expects to happen, with a quick NLP pass comparing the "effect description attached to drug" paragraph and the 2-3 sentence "expected effect description from caregiver". Yes more paperwork, but saving lives is usually worth the extra effort. Everyone already knows the long-term overwork solution is cut down on admin & hire more personnel.

You can't buy any 5k / 27" displays other than this Studio Display and the almost as expensive LG Ultrafine.

It is a pretty unique display. Too expensive for my taste but I wish there were other 5k / 27" options. And no, 4k on a 27" display isn't even close, primarily because you'd give up a lot of screen real estate with macOS' recommended 2x scaling.
Parent comment was suggesting you can run databases in StatefulSets on k8s

>No reason to have only one giant database to do everything in

It's the reality for a lot of "legacy" services. Some of these things have 50-100+ apps all connecting to the same DB with incredibly complex schemas, functions, triggers, etc. It's potentially a multi-year project to undo that. When you do that, you're potentially introducing significantly more network hops. If a business transaction spanned multiple pieces of data in the same database before, you've potentially created a saga spanning multiple microservices now.

Even if you do adopt microservices, you'll probably end up consolidating all the data somewhere else for reporting, analytics, data warehousing, etc purposes anyway (so you end up with a giant OLAP DB instead of a giant OLTP one)
Most of the comments that I can see below are restricted to discussing the impact of announcement and demo on the Unity vs. Unreal situation. However, it turns out that here are other very relevant and important issues which arise from the technological specifics behind the demo which, although they obviously directly impinge on the rivalry, have potentially broader implications.

'Uncanny valley' issues related to face-based (as well as body motion-based) realism in simulation for both games development and video production, whilst there have been recent very significant advances in addressing them are still a (pun unavoidable) rapidly moving target, a target where this demo highlights both substantial advances and still as-yet unresolved serious shortcomings.

The advances mostly relate to the introduction of machine learning and 15TB of training data into the content production workflow to reduce a rendering job from 6 hours per 50 frames to 3 milliseconds per frame as detailed in this article:

https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2021/12/10/234977...

Returning for just a moment to the UE vs Unreal thing, those results were discussed in an article about a demo created using Ziva Dynamics's Real Time Trainer and Unreal Engine 4.26, but Ziva was subsequently acquired by Unity.

The discussion I'd be interested to see here (or somewhere else!) is about how ZRT compares with (or perhaps even fits into?) Unreal Engine's Metahuman workflow and resulting content creation and realism results.

Perhaps more importantly, how might the ML-driven capabilities of ZRT (will they still continue to be available under Unreal as well as Unity?) and ML-based impact upon realism be expected to manifest themselves

Here's a link to the ZRT 'preparation workflow', which a Z-brush user who was trialling the trainer setup says took them about an hour to produce a workable result:

This is the actual egregious thing in the breach. All of the support tool stuff seems like it was acting as designed and prevented the breach for sprawling.

The idea that at a security focused company they are passing around secrets via public slack channels is wild. That’s the thing they need to address.
Yes you are right. I wouldn't start that component if I had seen react-arborist. Since then I am looking for good file tree components. Thank you for the contribution, I will keep looking for the alternatives but in the mean time react-arborist seems like a great choice.

Yes. I have debated with myself before which route I should take. I went with the Github way, just because I felt uncomfortable making a decision like this that goes against all the examples. Perhaps it was the wrong approach. Another problem with the Github way, is that functions/code-reuseability is almost non-existent.

The first 71 minutes of the response timeline are exemplary. But then two gaps emerge:

This is why free software is what we should be aiming for, not just OSS.
It is your assumption to believe any of them are criticisms. In fact, none are.

"AppWrite is written in PHP", "AppWrite doesn't yet have their Cloud version" and "Not much progress is happening on the GraphQL side" are not criticisms, "It's not built on Postgres" is similar. These are just facts I've come across which others may like. Following each fact, I follow with my thoughts.

Christy Jacob, from AppWrite said an unqualified statement: "I'm trying to be as objective as I can, but building the entire ecosystem around a single product like Postgres ( even though tried and tested ) comes with its own downsides...", and that was my response.

This is a pointless meta discussion though, isn't it? It is childish to assume I meant everything has to be built on Postgres for me to use it, or to make it "proper". If you already think its obviously absurd, you should think why one would say it? Perhaps you misread or there is more to it.
We've made WakeMeOps, a Debian repository for portable applications with a focus on devops.

We package devops tools such as kubectl, argocd, helm, helmfile, krew, flux, devspace and terminal tools such as yq, xh, skim, bat, fd for amd64, arm and arm64.

We currently distribute 90 applications, the full list of packages is available here: https://docs.wakemeops.com/packages

WakeMeOps makes your life a little bit easier because you don't have to check the github pages of all the tools you use to check for new releases.

- the latest releases are automatically added

- old releases are kept to let users pin down applications for reproducibility

We provide docker images that should help you write clean and concise dockerfiles for your CI pipelines.

You can easily submit new applications by creating a merge request on our github repo. Packages are described using a simple configuration file format.

Everything is free and open source, check our readme and website for more information !

Don't forget to give us a star if you like the project ;)

Thank you for reading :)
That’s exactly what it’s made for :)

You can finally go outside and work on your laptop in the bright sunlight without squinting! You probably don't do this often, but it's nice to have, right?

I also ride Montague Bikes. I'll give my use case. I need a normal, full size bike for most of my riding. However, sometimes I need to put my bike and a few others into the trunk of a car - the Montague folds small enough to make this happen. To have the ability to fold it into vehicles I think there is some added weight compared to other bikes in the frame thickness as it does not have the durable standard diamond frame shape. Also, their flip down bike rack to kick stand is a really cool design.

> it's then impossible to convince product people and "stake holders" to authorize enough time and resources to improve the solution afterwards.

I suppose one attempt at a fix for this would be to make the user interface of your prototype the least prioritised part; maybe even go out of your way to make it ugly and clumsy, so the thing as a whole looks more like a prototype and less like a "solution".

That may be your opinion. I'd say it's downright terrible.

What makes it look terrible? The majority of consumer displays max out at 300-400 nits. This is the whole point of HDR, webpages are not designed with “sunlight-white” intended for the background.
String columns are expensive to compare, certainly more expensive than integers.

ClickHouse has a low cardinality option when defining a column and it's particularly helpful for strings, especially those which are logically enums or a denormalized lookup from a small source table.

https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/sql-reference/data-types/lowc...

In essence it stores integers instead of strings (or whatever) so it can use a fast int comparison when you're using equality conditions on the column.

If you want fast scanning you don't want joins. So you want to denormalize attributes that you'd normally reach for across a join. But if you can't denormalize those attributes - e.g. they change (so they'd be prohibitively expensive to update in ClickHouse) - then you can store the primary key in ClickHouse, calculate your conditions separately, then use an IN check.

Let me give an example. Suppose we have a Label table in a relational database and an Event table in ClickHouse and we want to find events which have a particular label name (or owner, or possibly other attribute even more joins away).

Instead of using foreign tables in ClickHouse and joining Event to Label, or importing the Label table, you can evaluate your condition in your relational database to get a list of label ids, and then use an IN (label_id, ...) in the ClickHouse query. That way you avoid the join.

That's fine. Discord already has thousands of conversations that I've had with people. Google has a history of places I've visited and I've had an improved Google maps experience from that data. I don't really take many pictures with people. I would say I am mostly fine with it. It would me nice if they could disclose what they collect though. I think informing consumers is a good thing.
>If you want someone to plonk down $2k for a fancy phone

Imagine there is a social media site with a friends list feature. Instead of the site owning the friends social graph there are a few transactions on chain the say who are friends with. The site looks at that data to automatically populate your friends list when you use your web wallet to sign in with them. No username/password logins needed in this world.

The user can update their own social graph completely separate from the site with them having no control over who are are/aren't friends with. Now parts of the site are still centralized meaning that they could ignore whatever is on chain, but in that case its a lot easier for a competitor to start up, the users go over there with their web wallet sign on and boom the social graph is fully imported for them. Can even have parts of their profile/nft profile picture and ENS name come over as well.

I hope that gets the gist of it, and it is still a long way from fully being realized but there are already beginnings with ENS profiles and avatars easily used between sites and lens protocol trying to make the social graph aspect. https://lens.dev/

Pretty much. 1000 true fans is essentially the backbone of the NFT argument which basically revolves around artists and their fans parting ways with cash for collectable items. With NFT tickets, the artist always gets paid no matter who is selling the ticket and how many times it get sold. I would say that this is a win for the artist.
I don't get into the OSS religious arguments.

I consider almost all my stuff to be "open source," even the couple of projects that are "source available."[0] I think that it's important to make it all available, if I will call it "open source," but there's no reason, in my mind, to make it so that people can just take my work and use it commercially.

That said, I generally like to use the MIT license, because I don't like coercive licenses. I just don't like it when people try to coerce me, so I won't do it to them.

I am currently working on a non-open-source/non-source-available project. Considerable parts of it are open-source (MIT license), but the core app code, as well as a modified variant of my BAOBAB server[1], are proprietary and locked away.

I don't think any of it is particularly awesome or worthy of secrets, but the folks I'm working with aren't as sanguine as am I, when it comes to opening the kimono, and I'll respect their wishes. I worked for years, for a corporation that had Fort Knox trade secret security. It's something that I'm used to doing.

Estimation that it has the smaller attack surface (from https://www.qubes-os.org/faq/)

In short: we believe the Xen architecture allows for the creation of more secure systems (i.e. with a much smaller TCB, which translates to a smaller attack surface). We discuss this in much greater depth in our Architecture Specification document:

If you like that sort of look back at tech history, and at things that came out from the PARC, I highly recommend "Dealers of Lightning: Xerox PARC and the Dawn of the Computer Age" by Michael Hiltzik. It's a very well-written book with a ton of insights about how a lot of the things we took for granted came to be, from our printers and scanners, tablets, programming languages, and more.

If my memory serves right, it details a bunch of things on the development of laser printers, which gave Xerox a huge edge, the creation of the PARC and the giants that joined it, and many of the things they worked on: the Alto, Smalltalk, the Dynabook, and, indeed, the Ethernet.

It's also pretty funny to read how some administrative red-tape was sometimes being circumvented.

And also a bit sad to read how things went a bit south.

I've tried pretty much every 'NeoHDL' out there, and so far Bluespec was the one that actually made me feel like it's a step in the right direction, instead of more of the same.

Its atomic transaction based modelling maps superbly well into hardware clock cycles, and after using it for a while you learn to visualize quite well what shape of RTL will be generated. Plus its standard library provides some really powerful _and practical_ interfaces/implementations that make building things fast and safe. Oh, and a lot of things you would generalize with fairly heavy-handed and bespoke abstraction in things like Chisel/Spinal/Migen/Amaranth just map directly into Bluespec's type system constructs, making interacting with existing codebases much less of a reverse engineering effort.

The Bluespec SystemVerilog syntax is a bit... quaint, but if you're used to (System)Verilog you know the deal. I personally want to spend some time soon learning the Bluespec Classic/Haskell instead, but that's mostly because I already know some Haskell...

Overall, highly recommend giving it another shot. It made me enjoy writing HDL code again after years of frustration with other offerings. It's one of the few languages out there that actually make me feel 10x as productive thanks to the strict type/runtime semantics.
