I agree, it happens, and it's a good idea for people to at least dip their toes in the seemingly infinite free or low cost resources out there to gauge things before spending very much money. (Again ignoring that the whole premise of these ISAs is that you don't spend money except under some reasonable "win" conditions.) But lots of people don't do that. Lots of people can't, even, though with some structure some of them can learn and be as or even more competent than those who took a mostly self-taught immediate-goal route, or self-taught-with-formal-supplementation. Seeing how little pre-college programming experience matters vs. coming in with no programming knowledge is an interesting lesson of doing college. Learning programming is actually complicated, what works for you is not going to work for everyone.
> it seems to be impossible for any Putin's friends here in the West to imagine that people in Europe do actually have thoughts, goals, outrage and fears of their own.

i'm confused by your comment, but i think this means you believe that chomsky is a friend of putin's, and that chomsky does not believe Europeans have thoughts, goals, etc.?
This was an outrageously heroic woman and a genuine journalist. Thank you for your service Ms. Baulina. Respect.
I think that's also very true, that no one should feel forced to reveal something about themselves.It's one of the reasons I don't like the well intentioned 'pro-noun' movement, I feel it may out those who don't want to be outed.

To clarify my previous post, I was referring to those who are suppressed by others from expressing something about themselves that they would otherwise share.
This is where docker really shines. Unless you’re a php developer or have a lot of experience with it, gluing it all together is best left to some clever person maintaining an upstream docker image.
Yep, graph structure of topics enables users to wander around topic space. Good for less directed, more exploratory searching.

Another graph that is useful is the graph of people -> topic clusters. See https://twitterverse.net/ . Such a graph can help rank content from people deeply invested in a particular topic, and its hard to fake because they would presumably have to trick all their peers about their expertise

We'll have our own Show HN soon but it's great to see similar ideas bouncing around. Would love to connect over email to learn more about your thoughts.
What caught my eye was the new spec includes side channels for the PSU to communicate with add in hardware. Specifically to report the PSUs capabilities.

This looks like a red flag to me. This could be used as a way to vendor lock certain features of hardware to certain brands or capacities of PSU. Get ready for DRM that checks your system all the way down to the PSU level.

I prefer a dumb PSU that just gives up the magic smoke rather than narc out the fact that I'm pushing it over is limit.
Are these assumptions based on your personal experience? I ask because mine has been completely different than what you describe.
Analyzed dozens of battlefield radio transmissions between Russians in Ukraine
The threat of coercion or bribery by a state actor is absolutely real, and has already played out in the past month.

The threat of wilful cooperation by sympathetic employees with loyal ties to their homeland has also been a widely covered in several Chinese cases, less so by Russia. This isn’t isolated to those countries either - it’s almost certainly being done by the west too.
I agree. I read the title and immediately thought the pitch would make sense. Such repetitive nature like automation in farming. There will be edge cases though and they will be hard just like in farming.
> This is exactly how it works.

Not in my experience. I've seen iPhone videos that were entirely in the HDR range despite being indoor scenes in ambient lighting lit from a single window.

> There is no reason for your graphical interfaces to reach those light levels,

Again, I'm using Lunar right now and I find it useful sitting in next to my window. Not sure how that can be considered "no reason". It's literally useful to me right now as I use it.

> how would it be possible to have HDR at all?

It doesn't have to be possible! I don't use HDR. I don't care that theoretically HDR content would clip. It's not on my screen.

I'd rather HDR just use the same brightness range as SDR. Let me choose myself where HDR maps compared to SDR. I really do not want HDR as it is implemented today.

> I don't see how the content could become harder to read,

My eyes adjust to the HDR average picture level, and then SDR appears too dim.

Some of these problems stem from bad HDR tone mapping. But regardless, I want to control where SDR white maps because my workspace is bright. And I enjoy well lit rooms.

Only if the action doesn't move to defi; if it does, the main advantage of centralized exchanges (being able to double as market makers) vanishes.

This seems completely unrelated to the story you're commenting on.
Yes thats what I see happening. On top of this there would be strict policing by Apple and Google to provide a good user experience. Carriers and banks would certainly be subscription providers. The reason why I like carriers specifically is because they invest in a core resource of the mobile computing experience. Apple provides the compute and storage, while Verizon etc provide the network. So far, Apple has captured most of the value in mobile computing due to aggressive subsidies. If carriers could take a small share of app revenue they would be getting something back. If I subscribe to Stadia via Verizon, it means Verizon can pump that money into mmWave 5G to lower the latency on that cloud gaming experience. I basically just want healthy investment into the infrastructure that matters. I don’t give a shit if Spotify gets to keep more money or not.
Also assume doctors won't care, won't do any homework for you, and will do the absolute bare minimum possible: nothing.

> Demilitarization just means it will be easier to annex Ukraine later.

The other outcome is that Russia defeats Ukraine into unconditional surrender, and then demilitarizes it anyway.
>If any, what is your advice for poor and middle class Americans?

Well first things first. Americans are mostly 'rich'. There's a political ploy about the 'disappearing' middle class but it's because americans became rich. Investment in education killed the 'middle class' by making them rich. Take this for example: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/07/09/how-america...

Yes there are many americans who have poor as a mindset. 88% of americans were upper middle or high income. The amount of americans with a poor mindset is very low. As Dave Chapelle jokes, "You're not poor, poor is a mentality. The mentality that nobody recovers from. you're broke."

So getting back to the question, say you're poor or low income. These economic problems are not your concern at all. Your concern is breaking the mentality.

You need to learn abundance and confidence. Break the poor thought. The problem or why Dave chapelle says you rarely escape being poor is that the poor mentality is hostile toward this idea.
Yeah, I think there's real room to build something very cool and useful in the space of exploration and discovery.

I would still expect that most people on FB have a higher number of ‘authentic’ relations there on average than someone who plays Fortnite has in-game. Unless all of your friends/family play it all the time as well.

I guess it depends where do you live, though. Where I’m from Messenger is still the most popular messaging platform so most people (unless they have very strong feelings about FB) have an account.

However, bicycles evolved to be ridden by humans.

Even on a personal level. My old steel road bike, modified extensively, now has a very short handlebar stem and compact handlebar. This happens to bring the modern brake/shift levers into a position where I can keep my hands on "the hoods" for many hours without having to switch hand positions to elsewhere on the handelbar for relief. Looks a bit weird, but works for me.

There's a reason the classic diamond frame bike has survived for 130+ years. People constantly invent better bikes but none of them ever seem to go anywhere, except of course recumbents and folding bikes, which really are better for a tiny fraction of cyclists. I'll bet they, too, have reached a pinnacle of evolution.
This is so terribly full of corporate bullshit snake-oil.

"User Choice Billing" => it is a feature when we don't racket you.

"When users choose Google Play, it’s because they count on us to deliver a safe experience, and that includes in-app payment systems that protect users’ data and financial information." => No, Google says that but users don't. Remember it's a racket they have no choice than using the Google store in most cases to have their device working.
No one let you the choice to install your bank app from anywhere else than the play store.

"We think that users should continue to have the choice to use Play’s billing system when they install an app from Google Play" => this is legendary as a sentence: we decided that you will not have the choice to integrate our billing system. But we said the work 'choice', so like in communist Russia, it looks like that you decided to use us (...without constraint...)

"We also think it’s critical that alternative billing systems meet similarly high safety standards in protecting users’ personal data and sensitive financial information." => Even if the user willingly don't want to do business with Google's racketeering shit, still we decided that we will decide what the user and app developer can do.
Because... fuck you!
I don’t follow this proof. If Q takes an executable program, then Q(x) is executable, but Q alone isn’t. So you can ask questions about Q(Q(x)), but Q(Q) shouldn’t type check, as the inner Q isn’t executable without an argument. Am I being dumb? How would you do this proof with types?

> So where's the real problem? For every person like my daughter, there are lots of people who spend six months, and end up not making enough money to pay back the ISA.

Isn't that a feature, not a problem? The education institution has a strong incentive to actually improve the earning potential of its graduates. This is in contrast to institutions that get paid upfront, which have no such incentive. Once you've forked over the tuition they're getting paid regardless of how well its graduates do in the workplace.

I think the learning here is that institutions offering ISAs need to be more selective with enrollment.

There are plenty of different platforms besides Spotify which have comparable catalogs and are available on all/most platforms (even Apple Music has an Android app). Their subscription prices are almost the same so the market seems to be very competitive and nothing like the iOS App Store.
This is cherry-picking.

> The West is writing all the history books

Sure, the ones read in the west. The history books read in the East are frequently written in the East.

Iran, Russia, and China have very old societies with long histories. They, among others, have their own written histories. There is nothing significant preventing western citizens from researching history books written elsewhere.

It’s not difficult to find common books/movies/documentaries which challenge the rose-colored-glasses narrative of the US / The West. Noam Chomsky, Oliver Stone, et al are “writing the history books” which violate your assertion.

There is plenty of media content which is extremely critical of US. There are hurdles to get the US DoD to participate in projects which are strongly counter to pro-US narratives, but possible to do without their participation.
I would think that the bootloader code wouldn't use any funky IP blocks - it's not some sort of driver code into which applications call, it's just a special application that runs before anything else. It has to be able to talk UART (or some other interface), check signatures, and write flash. All of these the user code can do as well.

There are many "user-space" bootloaders as well for various chips. The factory bootloader is only different in that it sits in ROM. For example, RP2040 ROM bootloader is here https://github.com/raspberrypi/pico-bootrom

How are you getting 3 days of usage out of an iPhone? I don't use my iPhone X much at all (mostly texting and occasional web browsing), but I'd be lucky if I could get 2 days out of it. Meanwhile, my last Android phone would consistently last 3+ days on a single charge.

(To be fair, I ran LineageOS without Google Play Services installed, which makes a huge difference, so it's not exactly apples to apples.)
Define P(A, S) as the function that takes as input an algorithm A and a string S and returns true if A(S) halts, and false if A(S) does not halt. The claim is that P does not exist.

Assume P exists, let Q(S) be the function that takes a string S and halts if P(Q, S) returns false, otherwise it loops forever. Q(S) is not some whacky function either, in TypeScript it could be implemented as follows:

function P(A: (S: string) => void, S: string): boolean;

function Q(S: string): void {
if(P(Q, S)) {
while(true) {}
}
}

But then you have the following contradiction:

If P(Q, S) returns false, then that implies Q(S) runs forever, but by definition Q(S) halts when P(Q, S) returns false, so P was incorrect about Q(S).

If P(Q, S) returns true, then that implies Q(S) halts, but by definition Q(S) loops forever when P(Q, S) returns true, so P was incorrect about Q(S).

This exhausts all possibilities, hence our assumption that there is such a P must be false.
>I think it's a sign of a cultural shift. Not in hacking but in perception of money.

I think it is cultural shift in both hacking and in money. Computers and internet enabled kids to consume unlimited amount of information, it enabled them to learn, communicate and play around easier than ever. Some of them play video games and some of them play with "hacking". Hacking is something like stealing money from other kids but nowadays it is in the digital realm and not only stealing money from other kids but stealing money from everybody.

On the other hand there are cryptocurrencies which enabled them to move money around with ease and without any legal requirements. It's not like the underaged high school kid could open a bank account and then demand extortion payment to be made. The only thing he must do is to download a Bitcoin wallet.

But I agree with your assertion that the line is blurred between hard cash and digital cash including in-game currencies, cryptocurrencies plus all other digital representations of value.

> Subservient? Is he saying that Biden is demanding Italian universities ban discussion of Dostoyevsky, and the helpless Italians are unable to refuse? Could it not be that Europe has suddenly found a sense of common identity in opposing Putin's authoritarianism and military expansion?

No. He's saying that Europe is completely subservient to the US, and this extreme subservience is what leads to foolish acts like banning the discussion of Russian authors -- presumably because Russian authors are the enemy... because they are Russian.

The preceding sentences say as much:

> The major effect, I suspect, will be what I mentioned: more firm imposition of the U.S.-run, NATO-based Atlanticist model and curtailing once again the repeated efforts to create a European system independent of the U.S., a “third force” in world affairs, as it was sometimes called. That has been a fundamental issue since the end of World War II. Putin has settled it for the time being by providing Washington with its fondest wish...

SAIS. "the Necessity of Military Force". brilliant stuff. CSIS for good measure. perfectly blob-ular.

i haven't heard any serious analysts say putin is insane -- they all seem to say just the opposite -- perfectly sane, rational, legitimate security concerns, etc.

i think the primary alternative Ukraine has had for years was (and still is) to declare they were never going to become a part of hostile-to-russia military alliance -- Nato, or anyone else.

people talk about Ukraine having no options - like they were doomed to die from an utter lack of indepedence if they did not join Nato? but every country in the world is constrained in some ways, even the US.

ukraine could have opted out of nato, got some security guarantees back from russia in return, probably either joined the EU or joined it in all but name, built some military alliance with other EU members within reason as negotiated with russia, etc.

nobody suffers, nobody dies, try to build up a reasonable democratic tradition, influence russian society by setting a good example of what effective democratic government looks like, etc. russia will get rid of putin eventually, and possibly grow slightly more democratic, etc.

but the US was not interested in any of that.

that's why the US is not interested in negotiating an end to the war -- instead, now we're fighting not for independence or our lives or our homeland, but 'principles':

> When asked to elaborate on his point, [State Department Employee, Ned] Price said that the war is “bigger” than Russia and Ukraine. “The key point is that there are principles that are at stake here that have universal applicability everywhere,” he said.

he didn't have to say the most important principle at stake in the Russia-Ukraine war: the principle that the US alone should continue to control the world.
