This reminds me of one aspect of my hearing loss that's been hard to explain.

Amplification doesn't fix everything. My hearing loss is complex, a mix of conduction problems in the middle ear and something neurological as well. I can hear very high and very low frequencies surprisingly well. There's a big bite out of the main speech band, though.

I find that speech, with background noise, that goes through a mediocre microphone, 200 - 3000 Hz pass filter, and then a digital compression codec, and then through a loudspeaker -- no matter how loud -- can sometimes be nearly unintelligible to me. It's loud enough. But I can't figure out which sound that's supposed to be. It's just too distorted.

I take my hearing aids out to listen to music, most of the time. Despite usually being able to better hear the melody and lyrics with the hearing aids in. Because I know the sparkle you speak of, and it's wrecked by all but the very best-quality electronic amplification. Some people think it's odd that I'm finnicky about quality speakers, etc. when I'm half deaf. But every decibel of SNR counts when I lose most of it in my head.

(And I too hope one day they can fix that for both of us.)
No but it does make you a soldier. That's the entire point here. We don't care what they thought of themselves, we care what they did.
> , like slow or calm traffic.

Perhaps that depends on the context a little. My city has removed some lights in my neighborhood, in favor of 4-way stops, and traffic is much calmer. No more the gunning it to try to make it through the intersection when it's green or orange. It feels so much safer when on foot or biking.

Compared to what it was before, it's a real improvement.
I wonder if Twitter would be in the right to deactivate musk’s account. They’re a company & he’s clearly trying to cause them harm. I see no reasons as to why it wouldn’t be justified. (Hilarious too, I might add.
Fundamentally, Bevy prioritizes different things than many of its competitors, and is actively experimenting in all of its domains.

Some of the larger distinctions:

- Everything lives in the ECS

- The ECS is incredibly ergonomic: basically just structs and functions

- Systems are automatically run in parallel based on their
type signatures

- Rendering is powered by a composable rendering graph

- Everything is modular, and engine code looks like user code

- A culture that cares about genuinely good, up to date docs

As we grow to properly cover more areas, this list will grow. I'm one of the core contributors to Bevy and I can assure you we're not interested in writing "yet another game engine" <3
Who says this is targeted at hobbyist game developers?

Someone liked the idea of writing a game engine in Rust and so they did. I wrote my own sidescroller engine when I was 16 as well, although there were existing things around and it thought me a great deal about how to tackle multiple classes of problems.

Now the bevy devs seem way more experienced and if there was already a game engine that ticked all their boxes they might not have started developing a new one. But the point here is: Not everything is a product with an clearcut target audience — and not everything has to be.

Projects like these ultimately help the whole field of game engines to move on and innovate.
They can certainly do it but it’s end Twitter as a going concern.

People like to pretend.
Releasing a cracked version of an application is not covered under that exemption. I'm honestly flabbergasted to hear you suggest it might be.
I'm too lazy to read the article... which flavor of Linux are we talking about?
Already a discussion here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31042187
Heh yeah I just came back here to say the same thing about the other article :-)

Sounds like the violence was NOT a real thing.
That wasn’t my point at all. They are specialist magazines stocked my particular places.

Because it’s not 2007, no matter how hard you wish it to be.
What they can produce it for only matters as a lower limit on the price.

If they can produce it for $1k, and are the only ones who can due to patents, they'll still sell it for whatever the market will bear. Potentially rather choosing to sell 1M units for 100k each instead of 100M units for $1900 each (although I expect too drastic attempts at artificial scarcity would cause the government to expropriate them).

Either way they'd be guaranteed absolutely mad profits if they managed to create this, which is why some people will be willing to throw money at them fully expecting that it's most likely bullshit just because they don't want to miss the opportunity in the unlikely case that it's not.
Well, that's not what the posted link shows. It just shows that their support is very slow. The problem was eventually resolved.

That's still not good, but I don't like clickbait.

Here's the workaround from the end of the thread:

"Remove your SPF records (just delete the TXT record) BEFORE going through the iCloud record addition/validation. This should fix it for you. Their validation system appears to be buggy and is not handling multiple include:statements properly."
It's interesting that you don't deny The Ukrainian Azov Battalion are Nazi's, nor do you justify why we should side with them.
The biggest advance I can think of is using security as an excuse to gather and monetize data.

Different people have different attacker models. I can imagine something like this would be perfect for keeping a mostly airgapped machine to access archives of documents created by Windows. (Or to use legitimately licensed, pre-everything as a service software in perpetuity)
errno codes aren't used in the exit codes of command-line tools; they're used in programmatic APIs like syscalls and libc functions.

There's no standard for process exit codes, other than "zero for success, non-zero for error".
Interesting given that ARM MTE on Android is only becoming a thing on Android 13, so I wonder where are those millions.

Besides ask Termux guys how much Linux is Android.
If I had to summarize the problem it would be that there is too much financial capital and no market signal to tell people to stop producing more financial capital.

You have this huge amount of money that you must dispose of for which you demand x% of return. All those startups can deliver x% returns but they can't use all of your money. So you stop giving them money and instead give it to those that are promising x% and taking as much funding as they can get their hands on, fully aware that they could run their business with much less funding and then you end up with all these absolutely gigantic money losing unicorns with the hope that you can sell them to other investors and let them be stuck with the loss by telling them that some sort of monopoly forms which will make it worth it.
I don't understand your perspective. Perhaps you could share some elaborating resources?

So far as I can tell, Russia now controls some 40% of the worlds grain production which feeds much of Europe and North Africa, 70+% of neon production needed for semiconductors, the main source of nuclear material for French energy, the main source of fuel for German energy, and a great deal of raw materials and commodities besides, such as timber, palladium, etc.

They now also have avenues to trade in energy in means other than the dollar, something which was not possible before, and have experience against modern NATO weapons. They are, so far as I can tell, far from screwed.
More than one thing can be brutal at the same time.

There's video of people being beaten, crushed in doors, etc. That's brutal. That there's more brutal stuff out there doesn't mean it's not brutal.
Thank you, I agree with this perspective. The content density from a professional IDE is higher than what I get from a terminal editor. I can't imagine tooltips using the same font size as the rest of my code. I don't like it when the UI elements use monospace fonts.
The difference between a crackpot and a prophet is their reason for believing what they do. And their thinking couldn't be more different.
I'm not sure why people keep asking about this -- it was a transparently desperate ploy by the defendant to portray themselves as victims, and it didn't work.
I'm guessing there's a word missing: "What was shocking to me was NOT how brutal but stupid it was."
This is similar to why Russians like Putin as much as they do.

Life under the Putin regime has improved material standards a lot, compared to the disasters that preceded it.
Well, yeah. Those sessions are aimed at their colleagues, who know 99.9% of the subject and only need to be taught about the .1% that is novel. Such presentations are for people at the very limits of the field, learning the things that push the boundaries. It's not a tutorial aimed at bringing newcomers on board -- even if that "newcomer" is in a slightly related field.

They'd be just as lost in a presentation by a PhD in your field explaining their work.

That's before you get to the fact that most such presentations aren't very good. Presentations are yet another skill unto themselves, and few PhDs have actually mastered it. I think of them as more like infomercials. If you actually want to get on board with the material, you'll go read the paper or talk with the people. Or better, both.

There's a famous cartoon putting this into perspective:

https://matt.might.net/articles/phd-school-in-pictures/

It's just the fact that there's so much to know that any one person only has the ability to know a tiny, tiny slice of it. Anything else looks alien. You could figure it out with time put into it. But you have to allocate your time, in whatever way seems best.

It's not a bad idea for you to put some of your own time into making good presentations. It's a tricky skill to learn, since it's subjective, but at core it's about empathy -- imaging how the world looks from somebody else's perspective. That's a good talent to have, no matter your field.
That's not a solution from Apple support. That's the solution that the USER came up with, after support was satisfied with "nuke your DNS zone" as a solution and closed the case.

This all can be fixed with a simple regex, once the right person gets involved.

But it seems a week is not long enough to get someone who knows how to use `dig`, and can create a bug report for the appropriate engineering team.
> people and establishment media are angry because free speech and freedom of the press is going to be protected.

The only expectation that doesn't strike me as a naive howler is that the censors will have new targets, not that some altruistic, enlightened billionaire-king is going to save us poor proles.

The notion that the "good" billionaires will save us ought to be repugnant to anyone who wants to live in a free and open society.
Was this ever a real problem, before or now after the individual mandate?
My rudimentary Win10 setup is such a gaming-only system, only Apps installed are Steam, GoG, Epic and Origin. The Spam that comes from those apps aside (mostly sales popup banners/notifications), I still receive the occasional "Your windows is at risk because you don't use OneDrive", or "Windows Defender has not found anything" or "Hey, this is our new Edge browser we installed and placed a shortcut on your desktop, want to make it your default browser now?" spam.
Wow that's a very bad law.

I don't think so at all. The system is designed so that the American people, in the framework of the system, make it run. There's no need to worry that we only got the 2nd best person in the job, because we're not counting on their excellence to work miracles for us.

While on the other side of the coin, it's still possible for a bad actor in that position to wreak a lot of damage (especially given the historical erosion of controls on government action and the gradual abdication of Congressional oversight).

So it's more important to avert a potential disaster, then to avoid the cost of missing our one potential savior.

I’ve noticed that many people in this community almost reflexively reject any mainstream narrative.
Yes thanks, that's the exact kind of info I felt TFA was missing. Sounds like violence was not really a factor, just an excuse.
Yeah, I had the same experience. They reply super fast and with no bs. As a support engineer in the past life, I really appreciated it.
It's a poison pill. My short version understanding is that if anyone tries to control 51%, they can issue more shares to make it too expensive.

There may be some kind of WallStreetBets technical maneuver around it. But it doesn't sound like it will be easy
There are also letters between Roman governors complaining about Jesus and his followers. Regardless of what other notions one discounts, the fact that Jesus was an actual person alive at the time should not be one of them.
This means Twitter's board probably isn't interested in accepting a buy-out at a significant price premium. Very curious to see how this develops, and I'd love to know what's going through twitter's boards' heads.
Elon apparently lined up his offer with a talk at TED:

https://blog.ted.com/elon-musk-talks-twitter-tesla-and-the-f...

Interesting war-of-words going on among the twittizens, many people fearful over a platform where their ideological enemies aren't banned, many free-speech-maximalists getting the champagne bottles ready.

Personally my move was a small position in $DOGE in hopes that it becomes the micro-tipping standard, but I don't know that it really has the TPS for that. I do think Twitter could be much more valuable then it is with better self-moderation tools so that you're not exposed to the trolls, bots, and culture wars if you don't want to see it. Let people tweak their filters and share blocklists, that kind of thing. There's so much panic about letting people speak freely, but really the danger is algorithms rolling dice on what accounts to amplify. Just show me what my network is talking about and stop injecting "what's popular" into my feed.
Thank You! I needed this all my life!
I sometimes like to read on paper so I've used this to collect articles into an epub and then I can convert it to a PDF for printing. However it would be nice to find a faster solution for collecting articles and removing unnecessary pictures.

> Take either on a bad mood day with bad weather, a dirty house, and stuff on your mind... and you won't have a good time.

That doesnt sound like the start of an apparently very promising candidate for treating depression and PTSD. Just goes to show how different experiences are, I guess...
As a non Ukrainian on the other side of the world, I disagree. I don't expect either America or Russia or Ukraine to be mature around the use of nukes at this point to do this "game". Hot heads, egos and emotion all around.
Um this sucks? https://imgur.com/a/DgIK2y1
To be fair, it's generally discouraged to speak ill about a previous workplace when interviewing/working at a new job as it may reflect more poorly on you as an individual than the company you are disparaging.
A person who thinks they are healthy but goes for an annual checkup just because it is covered by insurance is still benefiting from this.
No.

... I don't actually have an argument. I just wanted to keep the 'No' chain going. Sorry.

You make some astute and fair comments but this one just jumped out at
me as terrifyingly wrong

> "We are under rule of the internet."

Good Lord! No! If we are "under the rule" of anything it is the Rule
of Law. In Britain, unlike USA, we are "subjects of Her Majesty", such
that the Law is mediated through a parliamentary democracy. You have
it slightly different under a republic. Either way, despite general
cynicism we are lucky enough to enjoy governments that serve us, and
long may that last.

The internet is nothing but a tool. It damn well serves us. And it
does so if and only if we ask it to. Your's is precisely the sort of
expressions that gives me concern, please reconsider what you are
saying.

One of my favorite features of SQLite is its memory mode. It makes writing tests really quick and easy compared to having to spin up a test Postgres database and then deleting it.
Idempotence is usually used when talking about effectful code. Modeling the state as part of the input/output seems to run counter to that purpose, because that's how you create a pure model of an effectful program. It's useful to talk about idempotence when running the function zero times is different than running it once, which is hard to do in that framing. As you say, "on the same input" is difficult to reconcile if the state is part of the input.

If we consider the state to be part of the input, then it's easier to say that when f(x) = y, then f(y) = y as well. In other words, f(f(x)) = f(x). Which, as it just so happens, is literally the mathematical definition of idempotence which the programming concept is based on.

In any case, this still gets to the same overall conclusion: the point is to arrive at a specific destination, not to move towards it. That shift of perspective is helpful in framing problems towards an idempotent solution.
The worst variant I know on this idea afflicts several intersections in my daily driving environment (west side of Portland): stop signs with little addenda saying "3-way stop". So one direction doesn't have to stop. And they don't tell you which one it is. Is that car coming from your left going to barrel through, or not? Maybe that's a stop sign over there, maybe not, it's hard to tell from the back. Come on.
This is massively oversimplified.

- the cost of having access to more than you need: cognitive load and tooling for filtering, larger repositories require more tooling work to be performant

- there's also the atomicity of change and past changes which one can see/understand
I think there's an easier explanation for the effect, and that is people are just not very good at judging their skill level, and due to reversion to the mean, low-performers probably overestimate and high-performers underestimate.

And also, I think there is actually a tiny bit of DK going on.

And then, as you say, it gets amplified by the pseudo-literati.
> people who think they are acting virtuously, are in fact the perpetrators of harm, without knowing it; so convinced they are of their own virtue.

They say majority of Russian people really support Putin and his war on Ukraine. Similarly many Germans supported Hitler and his invasion of Poland. I think the situation in Russia is now very similar to the early Nazi Germany.

It could happen here too. But I hope and pray if there's anything good about Putin's war it is it makes people realize Fascism is alive and well, and will not go away by itself.
Nothing could have been done to lessen the chance of of conflict except arming much more Ukraine to the point that it's not worth atracking it, I can't see anything else.
The point here is that the ski trip is not a perk, but an investment in company productivity via social lubrication. The company believes it is getting more for its money by sending the team on a ski trip, than it would depositing those same dollars into people’s bank accounts (even ignoring taxes).

I have been remote for six years and I love it, but still some of the biggest leaps forward in trust and communication I get with people happen when I spend time with them in person; and some of the most fruitful products and tech I’ve been involved in conceiving weren’t in a meeting set up to conceive them, but accidentally, while having a drink and being in the same room as someone I didn’t plan to be with.

Everyone is different and I’m not saying you should be forced to do any of this. I recognize that often these situations are just painful, depending on who you are and who your team is. Just saying the dollars have a specific purpose when being spent in this way.
The solution is simple. The platforms should take full advantage of the protections granted by Section 230, while designing the platform to support pluggable 3rd party moderation. You don't want to see Nazi posts, or have them reply to your tweets? Opt for a moderator that provides that. Third party moderators could even supplement content, particularly those that go viral, with fact checking or contrary views as chosen by the user.

Will people still opt for no or biased moderation and be susceptible to fake news? Certainly, but with some tweaking, proper incentives, and quality trusted moderation, it would be enough to improve discourse and fact finding compared to what we have now, which is one dominating group controlling what we think and see.

Cgo Does Clear Errno
I have this installed and have used some of these sometimes; it is good. (I do not use all of them, though)
I scanned through that talk and I didn't think it looked hard to understand.

I haven't built the kind of tooling he's described but I've used it professionally (Tensorflow, PyTorch) and thought a lot about what's under the hood.

For that kind of math though there is no substitution for doing a good amount of it with your own hands and I paid my dues.

On the other hand I even though I am "just" a coder with a PhD I used to get most of the Springer-Verlag CS conference proceedings from the new book rack at the library and read them on the bus or on the toilet until they shut down the engineering library and quit buying new physical volumes.
There is literally a link titled "ISO Download" at the top of the web site.

Claiming that "oh, that web site isn't actually offering the download, it's actually a torrent file hosted on a Telegram channel" is not the defense you think it is.
These types of "optimized" images are notorious for having viruses and other changes that compromise the entire system. Just disabling updates is a huge red flag. If this stuff bothers people, there are viable alternatives. Even if this effort means well, it's a terrible solution to a problem that's only fixable by eliminating any and all dependencies on Microsoft.
Yep, Microsoft is in a similar boat. There is a reason for why Red West part of the main campus is often referred to as Red Vest.

Even outside of that, about half of the people I used to work with at MSFT were lifers (7+ years easily, a good number of 10+, a few 15+). Not judgement whatsoever, it sounded like a win-win situation for all sides involved (them and the company). Most of them had kids, families, and the primary reason for staying was great life-work balance and stability. They weren't "delusional" or anything, they knew all the tradeoffs of being a lifer, and they've made an extremely reasonable decision to stay.

Note: what I said doesn't seem to apply to most Azure teams, as I've heard some wild stories from people who switched either to or from Azure (i.e., they experienced how it is to work at both Azure and the rest of MSFT). Azure is intense.
And yet, very stupid people are too stupid to recognize that they're very stupid.

Not a single word in that blogpost changes anything about that.
