Sorry about that. I don't think I'm leaning on any super new browser/JS features, but if you share your FF version string (or an error in the console) I can try to troubleshoot what's missing!
I’m confused about deleting comments and renaming variables unless TASC itself written in Applesoft. Which seems crazy.

> As the author added features, he kept hitting the Apple ][‘s 48KB RAM limit

There was a language card that could replace the upper 16KB of ROM with RAM, but of course, you’d still need to have the interpreter somewhere.

I’ve never heard of TASC before, but Beagle Bros also had an AppleSoft compiler (released in 1986):

I do not think your combative tone is necessary. Pretty much everyone slightly on the liberal spectrum and plenty of conservative people would agree that what America did in Vietnam was immoral or a blunder or an embarrassment or a betrayal of the ideals of freedom and democracy.
You can install LXD on Alpine without snap and it works great.

It is. I guess I was extrapolating without explaining. Whatever results they get from this test at sea level, they should be able to predict the efficiency for a Space Based Solar System. I wasn't necessarily saying their test verifies that Space Based Solar would work, but just that they have the information to determine if it would.
The right has always capitalized on a self-perception of victimhood, above almost all other things other than common religious beliefs.

The left have generally actually been victims, or have advocated for victims. But then there's the privileged wealthy middle-class suburban left, who should rightfully relate to the position of advocate, but instead desperately want to be victims themselves. So they study the victims around them, introspect deeply about what kind of victim they really are, then come out of the closet dressed in their best imitation of that sort of victim. And being privileged, they are indulged.

one of the fun things about "modern" troposcatter modems is they're pretty much the same as the more advanced SCPC satellite modems you might see in use for a dedicated piece of transponder kHz in the C or Ku bands, and a geostationary-based link between two locations. I've only done a tiny bit of troposcatter but it's my understanding that the extreme loss in the path generally results in using fairly rudimentary modulation (like QPSK 1/2) with a vast amount of FEC in the total percentage.

> E.g. if you want to buy some FLAC music files from somewhere else, it won't "just work" anymore.

The thing is nobody* does that.

There are a few. That’s why I added the asterisk. But realistically very few people actually do it. Especially compared to the number of iPhones they sell every year.

If you were using MP3 files, you wouldn’t have an issue. Or AAC. There might even be others. Apple really likes to make things easy, but they tend to only do it for the common case. That’s what gets the most use, that’s what makes the most people happy, that’s what they focus on.

If you’re the kind of person who wants to do things that are far out of the mainstream you’re never going to be happy with an iPhone. You can use other apps as other people pointed out. But I wouldn’t expect this to ever work in Apple’s music player. It’s the same reason you can’t have root, re-theme your phone heavily, replace the dialer, or a lot of other heavy customizations. That’s not what they focus on.

It’s just their ethos.
The V extension is more akin to the various SIMD extensions of x86 (SSE/AVX) or ARM (NEON) than a GPU system. I’m sure one could make a GPU based on RV-V, but the extension is more GPGPU like than a pixel/shader pipeline.

But you don't have to worry about or understand the Android security updates - they are applied without you even having to do a firmware update. As you indicate, security updates are not something you should have to worry about.

And just because they are applied by the play store doesn't mean they are closed source. The play store itself is closed source, but the security updates to the OS get published via the normal processes.

Android is open enough to allow competition, eg. Amazon's Android, Microsoft's Android runtime, etc. are all done without Google's permission.

To me, that's key, but I'm not trying to tell you whether open source should matter to you. I just wanted to clear up the stuff about the security updates because I think the Android way of doing it is now better than Apple's method.
> I don't see how this follows. The ultraviolet catastrophe (or other divergences) says we have to fix something, it doesn't say that we should choose a weird ad hoc fix.

My point was that we have accepted GR even though we know it implies a divergence at the center of a black hole, which we know exists. We assume the math is probably mostly right, we do have a huge curvature at that point, but it can't be literally infinite. We assume that if we had a slightly better theory (probably quantum gravity) that would fix the divergence without changing too much else.

By contrast, we couldn't say "the theory that predicts the ultraviolet catastrophe is mostly right, we're just missing a tiny piece to stop the divergence", because we had good experimental evidence that atoms don't collapse almost very quickly at all. So, while the infinity alone was a motivation to look for a better theory, it was the extreme contradiction with experiment that motivated a fundamentally different theory instead of an adjustment.

> But the invariance arguments and procession of mercury would be grounds for taking it seriously. Einstein's argument for the theory depends only weakly on MM.

Looking this up some more, I had a mistaken impression. The independence of the speed of light from the velocity of the source was already relatively well established by 1905 - in fact, this was part of the motivation for Maxwell's equations from 1865. Maxwell's equations had been thoroughly tested and were well accepted, especially because of experiments by Hertz in 1900. However, the dominant concept was still that light is a wave in the luminiferous ether - but several attempts to measure the interaction with this ether had produced null results. Even what we now call the Lorentz factor had been experimentally measured through experiments on the speed of light in a moving medium (then thought to be a drag coefficient between the medium and the ether).

Einstein then came up with the idea that constancy of the speed of light should apply in any reference frame, not just some special frame defined by the ether. That means that not only is the speed of light independent of the speed of the source (which isn't that strange for a wave), but it's also independent of the speed of the observer. This was only experimentally proven much later, in 1932, by the Kennedy-Thorndike experiment.

Still, SR followed from theories that were well proven empirically, and had obvious experiments that could falsify it.

> This view suggests that a physicist in 1915 (or 1925, etc.) should not try to work out properties of gravitational waves, for example, which seems obviously ridiculous to me.

Well, I think here there is a difference between trying to work out consequences of an otherwise well-established theory (such as working out exactly how gravitational waves would look like in GR, or arguing based on Maxwell's equations) and trying to come up with a new theory that modifies existing ones (such as grand unification or some solutions to BHILP).
That's a highly commercial story they're telling there. It's all PR. I'd bet that it was canonical who approached Mozilla and offered compensation. After all Mozilla is always looking for money.

If offering a Deb is such a major issue for Mozilla, why are they still offering a distro-agnostic one that works just fine?

This whole story just doesn't make sense but fits in perfectly with Canonical's obsession with making snap a success.
>None of those are major cryptocurrencies

Sure, but this is circular logic. They're not major anymore because they're dead.

>and the blockchains of many of those which are now effectively worthless continue to exist in a handful of nodes around the world, showing the resilience of this enterprise structure.

Yeah and I still keep copies of old Word 95 documents around, so if we're going by only "time spent existing" then the data structure used in Word 95 documents is much better and more resilient than blockchains. Of course that's a silly way to look at things.

>a blockchain is inherently far more widely distributed in its infrastructure providers and datastores

This is not even remotely close to being true. Nothing about blockchains makes them inherently more distributed, you can very easily deploy a blockchain on only one machine and keep it that way. The communities around them might be more distributed but that's a different discussion that isn't really related to blockchains.

>In this case they are too big to fail on their own, not too big for society to allow them to fail

I'm sorry I don't understand what the difference is. The definition of success here is "society sees it as useful" so the mode of failure is the same either way.

>It is a good thing for the world at large when a shared ledger becomes increasingly robust to failure due to its own structure becoming more resilient. This makes for a more reliable platform for financial and social interaction.

Sure, I can agree with that, but these statements have nothing to do with blockchains or cryptocurrency at all. You could say the same thing about a digital cash becoming more robust.

Hello. For me it's monologue (inner dialogue) or vague/shadowy fleeting images.
Or singing songs to myself. I can rarely keep an image in mind for more than a moment, and it's always mostly colorless, not detailed.
In Canada it is down to our telecom oligopoly, which our government protects by (a) refusing foreign competition and (b) installing industry heads to run the consumer protection regulator, i.e. allowing the oligopoly to capture the regulatory body.

In actual fact, our telcos were heavily subsidized during their formative years, granting them a monopoly, rights of way, and helping to pay for their infrastructure. In return for a guaranteed profit margin, we had extreme control over their pricing structure and guarantees of service quality and coverage.

Then we allowed them to be privatized and deregulated, in exchange for which we get fucked. Which is, as far as I’ve ever been able to tell, the inevitable outcome of converting public services to private.

I'd be worried about mixing up business and personal chats and photo galleries. Like if I need to take a picture with my work phone it's usually of something work related.

Or forwarding the wrong meme on a business chat, or attaching the wrong file in a family/friend message could land me in trouble.

It very obviously is. They're rejecting advertisers who project misinformation around climate change.
IANAL, so happy to be corrected, but my understanding is that EU and US law work in quite different ways. EU law sets general rules, and law courts decide what that means with reference to existing legal precendents. US law is very, very specific about what each clause means and how it should be interpreted.

Every time I see these kinds of discussions I wonder if quite a few of the disagreements are due to e.g. US commenters worried by the relative lack of specific details.
Yes unity wasn't bad and it wasn't shoved down your throat.
I guess. It's not hard to figure out what it needs and install them, though. It's what I do on my debuntu systems.
Yes it did previously (when it was forced the 1st time with...20.10 I guess?) but on 22.04 at least the feeling is basically the same that with the .deb I had on 21.10. I upgraded a month ago when it was still in beta so my memory might be already tricking me.
I thought window was pretty limited on modern OS?
i'm sure perception is cool when reading, but arguably it's cool mostly because the imagery leads you to _feel_ certain ways? when an author describes a moonlit scene with the protagonist alone at the edge of a lake watching the patterns of ripples on the water... that instills some meaningful emotion in me. perhaps a feeling of solitude, or that of a calm evening where i feel in-touch with the world. so... to what extent does limited imagery decrease the emotional potency of a scene?

a few people have told me "yes, i still feel something when i read that scene. it's more that i can't imagine any of the character's faces". i haven't met anyone who says they feel literally no emotions when reading any scene, but that doesn't mean they don't exist, nor does it mean the emotional response isn't attenuated.
Exactly, it's like how the current scientific consensus is that the earth is round, but many enterprising individuals are busy trying to prove their theory that the earth is flat.
Except with snaps, its like using a desktop OS on a server, which is not really OK.
Moreover, if you think the current 7.12% yield is great, if you look at the recently released CPI numbers it may be adjusted to 9.62% in May.
In my opinion by the time you're going to the trouble to clear a flat plot of land and get into the construction project of erecting a several square km sized receiver array, you might as well just go whole-hog on commodity ground mount photovoltaics on the same area of land. And totally eliminate the cost of the satellite.

There's plenty of contractors out there who specialize in building such things from existing COTS systems/subsystems and components. Look at the specifications and size of some of the large ground mount PV systems in China and India. Margins are very thin in this business and very competitive on $ per kWh feed-in tariff rates paid to contracted systems. The construction process has been optimized to nearly as good as it can get now. Labor is a major cost.
Not a lot better, but in public MUCs your JID is hidden to everyone except the server the MUC is hosted on. Also MUCs can be configured to only send a limited amount of history to new participants.

For this reason I'm somewhat uncomfortable joining Matrix rooms over bridges, since it leaks my XMPP address and participation to everyone forever.
What makes snaps so ideal for IoT? I'd think all the extra overhead causes major headaches on resource constrained platforms. But I'm not really in IoT.
I've found Nokia/HMD also okay.
Oh wow, that's seriously amazing! It's great to see others enjoying my crazy ideas :) These old systems sure can be a lot of fun. You definitely get your moneys worth!
Nope. I still have trains of thought. It's just auditory, conceptual, emotional etc not visual.

I do get distracted with thoughts (even ignoring other people sometimes) most likely same as you or anyone.
> The scientific consensus used to be that the sun revolved around the earth ...

Ever thought about why it took so long for this particular "scientific consensus" was reverted? Because geocentrism could explain the motions of planets pretty accurately, and the easiest actual evidence of heliocentrism was that apparent locations of stars should move very slightly following the motion of the Earth (i.e., parallax) - the effect was so small that the first measurement was made in 1838, about 200 years after Galileo's death. Until then, the apparent absence of parallax was a scientific evidence against heliocentrism.

The lesson to draw is that it's not sufficient to have its proponent put under house arrest in order for a new theory to be accepted by the scientific community. Your new theory has to first explain all the things explained by the existing theory, and then some more that can not be explained by the existing one.

I'll leave it to readers to conclude what that means in the context of global warming.

Honestly I'm depressed by the level of discourse here. Otherwise mostly intelligent people are basically resorting to "Well some groups of people have been wrong about various things before, which proves that this particular (unrelated) group of people can be wrong, so instead of addressing the problem they say we have, let's debate for the umpteenth time whether the problem is real, again."

It's a classical stalling tactic, and IMHO the only proper response is "Get out, adults are talking."
Yes indeed, very early on it shows the equivalence of summing over position/momentum states. Depending on the desired answer one is much easier to calculate.
You can make the distribution different by eg duplicating some of the data a lot, which you might want to do to improve the actual purpose of the model (translation). Any other purposes (having opinions on gender) is just a coincidence and not being optimized for/regression tested.
When I first met the D&D alignment chart, it was enlightening. It can explain a situation like this so easily - namely, that the person you met is a lawful evil type. Like a concern troll on the internet, bad intentions are hidden behind a legal, orderly facade.

I don't think these types should discredit the movement. I do wish they wouldn't rile up folk so much though. Change is hard as it is, it's very unhelpful for the cause that they behave in such a bad way.
I'm not familiar with iOS devices, but..

> * Apple requires you add support to new devices to push a new build. (this is the principal policy decision).

Doesn't the original, old app run unmodified on new devices anyway?
The iPad is different from the iPhone. I don’t blame you. Even a ton of big Apple fans are not happy. The recent iPads are very powerful but the OS is still substantially similar to what the iPad 2 shipped with (which was designed for a phone). The power is locked behind the OS. It’s a pain.

An absolute roar of approval would go up if they announced fixes to iPadOS at WWDC this year. Or any year.
The current commercial state-of-the-art is quite a bit higher, 25.6Tbps or thereabouts using a full 40 channel/color DWDM and 400g modules. But yes, copper or RF is IMO a non-starter for any new deployments.

If you think google/netflix staff are going into the office and grinding out 40 hour workweeks - I live in the bay area - this is a total lie.

They are paid very well, many especially non-engineering roles have VERY flexible work setups.

Netflix had a big strike over Dave Chappelle

"Transgender Netflix employees and co-workers will stage a walkout next week protesting the streaming giant’s decision to release Dave Chappelle’s latest comedy special"

On Spotify we had the demand for employees direct editorial control of the Joe Rogan podcast:

"Spotify staffers are now considering a walkout or full-blown strike if their demands for direct editorial oversight of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast aren’t met."

I don't listen to Joe Rogan, but I don't think my work environment is necessarily helped by the staff at spotify taking over his show.

So these are the content strikes (the public side of internal pressures).

The question currently is, do you want the loudest voices to control all conversation?

Then for sure, support these strikes and have things taken over by these staff.
What Do Browsers Say When They Phone Home?
I read the article. I've read other articles of hers as well. And I don't read her that way at all.

What she primarily is, is someone who insists on experimental data as an anchor for physical theories. She's not totally against theory that isn't backed by experiment (despite her last paragraph or two), but given multiple competing theories that cannot be experimentally verified, she is unwilling to accept any one of them as "the truth". I don't think she's wrong in that.
That's Canonical's PR line. As someone working at Canonical during the discussions, I can tell you that's not true.
