cool service - bookmarking this. I notice they do not have locations in all major cities though (missing Austin, TX).
10 years? You're very generous. I think we should write down our predictions exactly as a personal reminder of how wrong we can be in our understanding of the world in general. Most of us tend to just brush it off, which is why we constantly have analysts on tv explaining with hindsight why someone else's predictions for the past year were off, to ironically follow with predictions of their own for the coming year. And on the circle goes.
So your suggestion is to return the homeless people to their natural habitat in the woods, so they can forage for berries as nature intended?
The majority of which come from food waste that's left to decompose in the landfill. Those could and should be separated for composting. The released methane and stuff can also be captured.
Stem cells. Last time this type of therapy was in the news some woman got injections in Asia and had bone fragments growing in her Eyelids.
Is there a fundamental truth you know that is being denied? I commute to Market St weekly and my own experience is that the city is emptier and less vibrant but not unsafe for workers going on about their daily lives. Poop and homelessness are plenty, sure, but that's sort of always been the case and not a new phenomenon. Am I now participating in denialism by sharing my own experience? How does your experience in SF look like?
I have used swarm optimization methods that have consistently provided better solutions than alternatives for optimizations of solution spaces in alterst 3 different domains. I am not sure what you are talking about.
I've done this, I really wish I could recommend this.

When the NAT punching works it's great. However (AFAIK) there's no option to use the lighthouse as a backup for when NAT punching fails, and when NAT punching inevitably fails it just doesn't work, even when everything can talk to the lighthouse.
I've switched various OSes in my life, adapting to them and adapting them to my needs as possible NOT trying to bring the old one paradigm in the new OS. PowerShell IMVHO might be more powerful than shell scripts BUT is so horrid just in mere language terms that I doubt more than very few Windows users would learn it.

Consider a thing: usability matter.

A second one: my OS is mine, not one that decide on my back, surprise with silent upgrades that lock shutdown or bootup, that show ads inside something bought to work with etc. All this characteristics makes Windows a crappy system no matter any paradigm. In Windows the user is not at the center, is just a data cow to be milked giving back crumbs in exchange.

GNU/Linux is still crappy for many reasons, but at least have a certain usability and stability, witch make it far less crappy than Windows.

In Enterprise terms Windows have done far more work than GNU/Linux witch formally makes Windows admin a far easier job in an enterprise, however I see Windows admins always stressed and without much free time to evolve the infra they manage, while GNU/Linux ones sometimes are stressed but not for most of the time and those who want can spare time to improve...

Windows is a product made to munge money, nothing wrong with that but that's means that's an anti-user product. And that's matter MUCH.
I still haven't played through all of Thimbleweed Park, but I managed to get my GF into adventure games after I bought it for her on Switch and she played through the entire game.

It's a fantastic game, It's basically what I always wanted out of an adventure game when I was a kid, and what's more the touch screen is a perfect interface for adventure games.

It was disheartening when 3D FPS games took over in the late 90s and MS fortified that with advertisements targeting the 'bro' segment for their new Xbox console and Halo franchise.

I was worried that Grim Fandango (still my favourite, omg that soundtrack) was the swan song of the genre but I'm so pleased to see that gaming as a whole has exploded and game development is so much more accessible than it used to be so that the genre has found it's niche. I genuinely think that an ipad mini form factor is utterly perfect for the genre so it pleases me that kids of a new generation can explore these neat little story worlds once again.

Also it's good to see that Disney isn't smothering the video game IP that they got when they bought LucasFilm. It seems like this is them testing the waters, and I hope that it is a resounding success that encourages them to do more with that goldmine that is LucasArts.
There is a precedent for that with the reproduction Amiga motherboards that came out a couple of years ago. Those were actually just pcbs but something more accessible would be cool.
>> proper carbon capture and sequestration?

Just skip the burning step. Get electricity from sun/wind/nuclear and "sequester" the trash. New branding for landfills: "Early-cycle carbon sequestration and storage facilities". They could sell carbon credits for every ton of carbon they inter in their below-ground solid carbon storage facilities.
Half of these are the problem I faced and solved with the bigger iPad Pro. I prefer it to my macbook for a lot of things, and that’s what I’m typing this response on.

Would you have the same approach to desktops vs laptops ? You would sure acknowledge that a 5k screen tower desktop on Gb LAN, TBs of disk space, no compromise CPU, powerful graphics card with an excelent keyboard is a better coding machine than a MBA in the absolute. But I don’t see someone explaining using a laptop for the same tasks as “working back from the solution to the problem”. Different form factors have different trade-offs and their pro and con.
They don't know it by name, but if you tell them that with IPv6 they could ditch their mobile phone service (their home router can run a SIP trunk just fine, so all they need is a non-NATed connection), or that you could create a FON-style mesh network where you could make money by becoming a hotspot provider, they would be more interested.
> Why is the Fed attacking the stock market?

The uncomfortable answer is (possibly) that a subsection of the elite have all sold mass amounts of stock and bought cryptocurrency...or, at least that's what the optics & legislation seem to indicate.
HARM is more of a defensive missile at this point. The strategy revolves around SDB and JSOW saturation attacks. Both are mildly stealthy weapons with long ranges, relatively low cost and aircraft can carry large numbers of them, particularly the SDB
In the UK snoopers charter was supposed to specifically target child porn, the actual wording of the law made it legal for your bin man to see your internet history for any reason.

Do they actually use their massive unchecked power to target child porn? We don't know because it's unchecked the government doesn't report on how the law is used it just uses it.

If the government actually used it to lock up a thousand pedos that would be pretty great it would get me voting for that government so why haven't they reported how success-full this law has been in the 4 years its been in affect? we haven't heard a peep, probably because there hasn't been any success for them to boast about.
> Is it because imagining a dog relieve itself on the street is less offensive than imagining a human doing it?

Yes? How is it not?
Even Microsoft's native applications can feel off. For example, I use Outlook for my email and really dislike its editor. When I type, I want the text to snap into existence immediately as I type. In Outlook it feels like it glides into being and doesn't even keep up to fast typing. Word is like this too, but fortunately I don't have to use it very often.

Because of this, I write longer emails in a text editor and paste it into Outlook when I'm done.
Kudos to Google for doing this but this could be even more effective if Google committed to say, 15 years of security updates or something along those lines.
I agree with this.

There was not a single new ability which ensured that humans became the most dangerous hunting animals, but an ensemble of correlated abilities, and improved sweating was certainly one of them.

Regarding the dogs, that is why their relatives are seldom important predators in warm climates.

Even the best adapted to warmth among canids, like the African hunting dogs, have to remain much smaller than the large wolves of cold climates, for adequate cooling.

When you compare humans with African predators, humans still have better cooling, but the difference is not so large as when you compare them with domesticated wolves, a.k.a. dogs.
In your mind, you can expand the code to make it clearer:

This is just my digital garden for ham radio. I just launched it last much so there isn't much information on there at the moment.
It's fairly hard to do that in a monorepo world, because (in theory) upstream can't merge anything until downstream tests are passing. Moreover, if you do break something (especially out of laziness), you get reprimanded. And if you really wanted, you could still require downstream approval for upstream changes.
Ah, yes. Conspiracy theorists, long known for logical consistency.
I missed out on the Amiga era of games, sadly. There is a charm and beauty to those, but I seem to have missed the era for it, and got spoiled by better technologies.
I agree with this and I've also been remote for more than a decade. The only time I have seen folks try and start implementing these things has been in meetings with folks who are managing teams that have recently become remote.

I also don't think that the introvert/extrovert distinction works well. I am quite a social person; I participate in quite a few activities like climbing, playing music, or ecstatic dancing. Recently I've been spending a lot of time busking and really enjoying my interactions with passers by. And I also really like to be at home, alone, getting stuff done-- work or writing music or whatever.

I have much preferred having more agency over what that looks like, and that rarely includes just chatting with co-workers. Fortunately, my coworkers all seem to feel the same.
Thankfully git is everywhere these days, and git on windows comes with most of the coreutils. I hope IT isn't telling you you're not allowed to use source control. Microsoft owns GitHub after all

IIRC, licensing was partly motivated by the formation of Amdahl in 1970, to lock in OS/MVS and the other 360/370 operating systems to IBM hardware.

Yes, exactly. And if one can't ever be satisfied with that, at least momentarily, then they are stuck in whataboutism hell.

> This. When you feed bears, you get problem bears.

> The National Parks system knows this, but cities like SF and Seattle do not.

It should be noted that homeless people are people, not animals.

Also, don't park systems kill "problem bears" (e.g. https://calgary.ctvnews.ca/waterton-lakes-national-park-staf...)?
It’s not that you can’t find fixed rate, it’s that ARM rates would be lower and you can get more house for your payment. As the sibling commented, realtors want to close.

Obviously you’ll just refinance in a few years when rates go back down to zero or your house is worth 80% more /s
> Stockholm syndrome.

Stockholm syndrome is a fake condition invented on the spot, with no supporting scientific evidence or other basis, by the person most responsible for a particular incident of excessive police violence unnecessarily endangering hostages to leverage misogyny to discredit criticism of that event.

It being cited by advocates of increased violent policing as an explanation as to why the people who would be subject of that policy don’t support it is…perfectly on-brand.
That's completely ridiculous. There was an entire decade of windows before windows 95. Very few people in 1995 would have had a 10 year old 286 PC, yet never used a GUI.
I don't understand why they didn't use the Do-Not-Track header. It's perfect: a client sending DNT is explicitly denying consent to any form of tracking before the page is even rendered. The presence of such a header should cause web applications to automatically delete any and all tracking javascript from their pages at the very least.

No idea why it turned into this cookie banner nonsense.
Now that's an unexpected memory! Do you remember watching a TV cartoon by the same name?
The real reason I liked the pinephone so much was not the price tag, but the replacement parts [1]. I didn't go for the librem cause it's an overexpensive bet with no sight of any repair parts.

Before that I only bought android phones where I knew that I can find either scrapped parts or replacement parts on ebay.

Middle America's 401k gets hammered (pushing retirement off x-years) and small set of tech workers can't buy as much? Seems more harmful than good. fwiw, I don't have 401k/and I own a tiny amount of stock.
I do remember giggling like a maniac when the parrot option would be to lick something that you normally would never consider licking.
"The consumer tech industry as a whole has gotten more serious about self-repairs in recent years."

More likely the tech industry has become more aware that the momentum for Right To Repair legislation is gaining and they are going to be compelled to do this sooner or later. I would be more impressed if Google and Samsung started making phones that were meant to be easily user-serviceable in the future.
I’m sure this feels like an accomplishment but in practice it provides nothing over git/source control as usual, and any number of reliable open or free hosted file sharing options.

What specifically is missing in the current ecosystem of electron state moving technologies that this solves? Why this instead of git and a Wireguard based mesh of devices (to offer my current setup as an example; there are others).
Farmers markets and lively cafes don’t solve homelessness or drug addiction. Like you say, they just become easier to ignore.
Crime is systematically underreported in SF compared to other cities, except for murder I’d guess.
Shocking, isn't it? All of the well-adjusted, professional people I know prefer uncomfortable places, expensive food, and overzealous law enforcement.

Seriously though, I can't imagine what point you're trying to make here, other than to share a deep insensitivity to other people's suffering.
FBI seems to have murder data for 2019.

https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-...

According to those tables the state of Wyoming had a murder rate of 3.4 per 100k and New York city had a murder rate of 3.8 per 100k. It doesn't seem right to me that "You're much more likely to get shot" in Wyoming versus NYC. I think, based on the data, that you're slightly more likely to get shot in NYC. Furthermore, in the last couple years murders have substantially increased in NYC.

I suspect the person you are responding to is also invested in a certain political narrative.

People complain about progressive polices, but from what progressive candidates lol

The left is powerless, we got trounced in the last election cycle and none of our policies, even popular ones like weed legalization, has been implemented.

If anything conservative policies are more widely implemented, and are what is failing.

The current model of policing is a failure in many ways, and now it can't even keep the peace anymore, it's pathetic. But who is going to evict your grandma so a real estate company can but hey house and sell it without the police?
From the paper: "In this work, we continue the scaling line of language modeling improvements and train a 540 billion parameter,
densely activated, autoregressive Transformer on 780 billion tokens of high-quality text."

The number of parameters is nearly the number of text tokens. So aren't they simply overfitting a lot?
...and we only do it if all tests are green, obviously.

I picture the collective hackernews nodding in unison, muttering 'obviously.'
No that’s all packsging. It’s only 34% for plastic which is worst of them all.

CA is one of the most “progressive” states.
SF is one of the most “progressive” cities in a progressive state.
Chesa is one of the most “progressive” DAs in a progressive city in a progressive state.

Progressives have complete control of the legislation and the enforcement and this is the result of their policies in action.
Actually, the MiG-25 was designed to catch the XB-70 Valkyrie, which is why top speed and cost were the priority requirements. Speed because it needed to catch it, and cost because there had to be a lot of them built if they wanted to protect the entire territory from supersonic nuclear bombers. And it should've been able to catch the supposed mach 3.1 speed of the XB-70. The Valkyrie was cancelled of course, but the Soviet Union kept using (and selling) the jet.
Good points. I don’t know of anyone has done the kind of deep analysis they’re advocating for though.

As a broad brush, I still think it’s fair to say in 2019 SF was around the middle of the pack for the top 100 cities in terms of reported crime per 100k known people.
This seems such a good trick. We could even do it at cloudflare rule level I guess.
That's literally what that means. Most of the time it isn't intentional though, at least in the sense of preventing the user from leaving.
OK, cool. So it's like how everyone tried to make "on fleek" a thing a little while back?

There are many reasons the "-by-1" doesn't make sense.

* If a vector is an n-by-1 array (a "matrix"), why not an n-by-1-by-1-by-1-by-1?

* What is a row vector in something like a function space? Is sin(t) a row or column vector?

* You _can_ think of a matrix as acting "to the right (on a column vector)" and "to the left (on a row vector)", but this disrupts the notion of a matrix as a linear function acting on a thing (since it can act on two things). It's much more consistent to define a matrix acting on a vector, m(x), independent of "direction" and then define the transformations that let you go in the opposite direction (take the transpose of m which is a whole new matrix).

* Are physical quantities like velocity a row or column vector? Convention dictates they're column vectors, so in what scenario would it become a row vector? If I have a velocity, v1, that's a row vector and another, v2, that's a column vector, is it appropriate to calculate the projection of v1 onto v2? Should the projection operation be "aware" of the orientations? If all vectors are the same ("column vectors"), this isn't a problem -- you can always define the projection operation without special cases.

* In matlab specifically, if you have an n-by-1 array `a` and a 1-by-n array `b` with the same elements, then `a(i) == b(i)` but `a` and `b` are not the same thing.
> Yes, and that's part of the problem - holding property shouldn't be a viable retirement plan

It's how many retirees in high living cost around the world fetch their income (when their retirement < standard of living cost of the city).

I don't see that as a problem for those who work hard and made good decisions throughout their life.

> If they want retirement income they could sell the houses and buy an annuity or invest in productive enterprises (or buy government bonds back in the day - which is no longer an option, unfortunately).

Riskier. Why should they?

Blaming them for holding one or two properties for retirement income is pretty much scapegoating the victim of the situation given for them: they made the best investment choice and they're being told that they're part of the problem.

I see many people blaming "shareholder's" greed too when it comes to investment.

The truth is that majority of people are just trying to secure their future and it's hard to blame them because their choices are guided by their surrounding (what's given to them).

I would look into the Government (specifically the cities, municipalities, and urban planners). They have the power to shape our environment.
Because cookies are useful functionality that should be used in our best interests, not to pad some corporation's bottom line via surveillance capitalism. We shouldn't have to block cookies or anything, they're the ones who have to stop creating software that is essentially malware.
I’m sure everyone knows it but it’s in almost all cities that had a very prominent defund the police movement. In Seattle and other Washington cities like Olympia they just don’t have a police force that is capable or even allowed to act. In Olympia for example a homeless person constantly goes to the same area and pisses and shits on the sidewalk. He stood in front of a glass window of a salon and shit in front of everyone and the business called the police only to be told that because they were just a tenant at the shopping center that the police would not come out. They made a rule (I dont know if law) that only the property owner can call the police now, and becaus the person shitting wasn’t inside the store, the property owner had to make the call. Like seriously? Property owners are banding together to hire essentially a private police force to patrol now because the government won’t police. Apparently only the businesses care about safety because the city councils do nothing and voters dont change anything.

Something Apple could do is extend macOS’ finger-pointing at resource hogs. It already lists egregiously heavy apps in the battery status item, but if it did something more visible like show a notification (or maybe even paint a red outline around windows of offending apps, it’d increase user awareness and thus pressure on developers to do better when it comes to efficiency.
"One technique we repeatedly used was creating artificial extra load in the live site. For example, we would do a lot more memcached reads than necessary. Then when memcached broke, we could quickly switch off the duplicate queries and have time to come up with a solution."

As much as I want to hate this, it's actually genius and elegant in its simplicity.
> And now you have an unmodified AGPL with additional restrictions as much as you want to.

Sure, but Neo4J didn't come close to doing that. They just appended the Commons Clause text, which is not at all clear about which bits of the AGPL are superseded or nullified, and has some obvious flaws (eg. "as defined below" should have been changed to "as defined above").

The chronically homeless are incapable of benefiting from affordable housing because that's not why they're homeless in the first place. It's pretty much always mental health, drug and alcohol addiction.
I've been testing Mutagen's file sync through DDEV on a Drupal project and it's pretty nice!

The project is way more snappy than using NFS mounts on the Mac (which was already WAY faster than bind mounts), and DDEV has file ignores set up correctly so the project's media files aren't synced and disk usage isn't doubled.
