That's fair enough! I was unaware of that history. But my point wasn't that the issue was "a big fail", it's that the GP was unfair in assigning the responsibility of that failure to "some newcomers [who] write code (and documentation) with this" while "the people who really know to handle these cases" are fine. The responsibility should have been on the people pushing for the experimental array indexing code to make it work safely with the existing usage of boundschecks that existed in the ecosystem and the existing documentation. It's a fundamental disagreement between whether the onus of code safety is on the user (who is responsible for understanding the totality of the libraries they're using and all of the ways they can fail) or on the programming language (for ensuring the stability and correctness of its code, documentation and ecosystem when making changes).
I have used Hubitat to control lighting, shades, and locks in my home since 2018. There is no reliance on outside services or an internet connection. If the company ceases to exist my device will continue to work at least as good as it currently works today. However, there are many third party drivers written so it is conceivable development could even continue.

You CAN interface with other outside services if that's your jam, but at that point relying on Hubitat continuing to exist is no different than relying on those other services to exist.
> I cycled through these noticings. Just like on the beach a few years prior, for a moment I felt that there was no distinction between me, the train, the tunnel, and the space we were all moving through. Nothing to grip or hold on to.

I like to imagine what the Earth and everything on it looks like to a neutrino.

In the last few years or so I've been practicing letting go the compulsion to be doing Something Else in addition to the Main Thing I'm doing. For example: the urge to listen to a podcast while I'm doing the dishes. Among the worst is the urge to listen to music while I'm listening to music, or the desire to play a videogame while I'm reading a book to my child. Part of this change is because I don't want to break any more dishes for lack of attention, but also because attending to the Main Thing feels more valuable now in that if it doesn't require 100% focus my mind can wander, or just let the neutrinos stream through, and afterwards I appreciate the break.

Here's the screen grab of when it decides to cut across the yellows (see the path plotted). The car is clearly visible in the oncoming lane with headlights on. There's also another car closer in the farther left lane. Neither of them is detected in the visualization. This is where a system with more robust sensors would detect objects way earlier and would never decide to cross lanes, whether it's double yellow or not.

Here's after it has crossed the yellow lines. The car is again clearly visible, but no detection yet. Clear perception failure.
Why can't non-institutional actors achieve the same level of privacy? Seems like it would be much, much easier for smaller actors since they are dealing in much smaller amounts..

Even if the claimant wins the case "just" in California, it impacts all companies doing business in California. And since almost every large (US/World) business operates in California, this ruling will help all consumers/customers of those companies.

(Late addition): In fact, it seems that SFConservancy _wants_ the case to be tried "just" in California, hence the fought in Federal court and brought the case back in a State court. Perhaps the advantage is that it's easier to win the case at State level, but the ramifications of a win will be US-wide, or even Worldwide, as explained above.

Possibly because punctuation, capitalization, and miscellaneous mistakes make the comment really hard to parse. Some people may just give up and regard the comment as what it "smells" like: The type of troll comment you often see on HN.

Even allowing for that it is worded rather... inciteful.

I parsed your comment as: "Some organized people will take advantage of GPL software, very few care and are willing to defend it, while the vast majority are indifferent. I do not intend to elaborate."
I don’t know that the changes would “kill the site” but I think it depends on how popular you want it to continue to be. Both public fora and exclusive clubs coexist in this world. I doubt one can have a truly open forum that has the decorum/behavioral norms and intellectual rigor of an exclusive club, though.

I'm somewhat surprised you're not familiar with n-gate!
I have been using bash for decades, not only on Linux, but also on other UNIX-derived operating systems.

Less than a year ago, I have tried zsh, without a definite intention to switch to it, but eventually I ended always using zsh for interactive use, while continuing to use bash for scripts.

I have benchmarked some scripts with both zsh and bash, but I have not seen any significant difference in speed.

While there are a few scripting features originally introduced by zsh (most of the brace expansion variants), bash has also incorporated them many years ago. Besides those, both bash and zsh implement the ksh93 features, so there is little reason to prefer one or the other. Therefore I have stuck to bash for scripts.

It is hard to say exactly why now I prefer zsh for interactive use, because there is no killer feature, but mostly various small details.

For some reason, zsh seems more responsive, when interactive. I rely a lot on autocompletion and the default autocompletion rules in zsh are more powerful and also the zsh autocompletion seems faster.

While in most cases I prefer the way zsh handles autocompletion, there are times when zsh annoys me by trying to be too smart, e.g. it will never autocomplete "mkdir" with the name of an existing file. I need that frequently, when I want to create a subdirectory in which to move a bunch of related files, with very long names that I do not want to type, but I want to edit slightly to make a name for the new subdirectory, so I have to use a workaround like autocompleting a "ls", then editing it into a "mkdir", while that was not needed in bash.

In zsh I use a much more complex shell prompt that I had used in bash, which displays a lot of useful information in a format that avoids confusion with the command lines or with the text output of the executed commands.

After switching to it in zsh, I have discovered that such a complex shell prompt is also possible in bash. Nevertheless, after using it in bash I have discovered some bash bugs. The too complex shell prompt confused bash and the text cursor became desynchronized with the correct position in certain contexts, so I had to revert in bash to a simple shell prompt.

I think that you should give zsh a try for interactive use. After using it for some days you will see if you prefer it to bash or not.

Now I prefer the interactive zsh, but there are no large differences, bash and zsh are similar and mostly equivalent, because whenever one was improved somehow, the other also copied that feature soon.

I had completely forgotten, but when I have tried for the first time to use zsh as a bash user, I have spent some ten minutes of great confusion, until discovering that I have to add to my ".zshrc" the lines:

bindkey '^[[H' beginning-of-line

bindkey '^[[F' end-of-line

bindkey '^[[3~' delete-char-or-list

in order to have the line editing keys with which I was accustomed.
"But you don't know which ones we count as mDAUs" and "accounts that look like spam are actually real" are not as good a defense as he thinks. The product is still affected by spam and fraud even if it's excluded from advertising metrics, and accounts that look like spam are not good for the product either even if they happen to be real people for whatever reason.
Parent is right, sort of - it's only in US for now. It would be interesting to see this tested in other courts of law and included in trade agreements.
Because it is most definitely not enough for what I want.
I've learned, rightly or wrongly, to basically ignore the significance of court rulings unless they're the outcome of a protracted Jarndyce-v-Jarndyce-esque process litigated by huge companies with huge legal defense budgets, with all appeals except maybe SCOTUS exhausted.

These decisions otherwise seem to get overturned in the future when you have a party with sufficient motivation+resources which is incidentally when they would matter the most.
Great piece! I’ve had a rambling zen practice for over 20 years and little of it has been the tranquil, peaceful experience that people imply when they colloquially call something ‘zen’. But totally worth it. And as you rightly pointed out, the act of just noticing can be done in motion as well as at rest. Thx for sharing…

It is possible, with a whole lot of caveats, that fancy grain-free dog foods may cause health issues.

https://www.akc.org/expert-advice/nutrition/fda-grain-free-d...

Again, caveats a mile long. No RCT, no systematic reporting, overall small number of cases…but there is at least some association with super fancy boutique diets and dilated cardiomyopathy.

But beyond that: not exactly swimming in good evidence that feeding dogs something beyond, I dunno, Purina Pro Plan, ends up in significantly better health outcomes for dogs. I mean, I love my dog, I'd do a lot for my dog, but there better be a stack of evidence a mile high that I should be paying 3x or 4x for boutique dog food. From everything I can see, keeping him lean and active is going to do a lot more than getting some “paleo” dog food that’s hyped by a TikTok influencer.
What's the barrier to entry for publishing a book through Packt?
It is regular thugs — sent by officials, secret police, mafia bosses, or persons taking more than one of those positions — who smash windows 9 times out of 10. However, your logic takes unwarranted turn to “power of propaganda” and “people of Russia”, probably because there's plenty of stereotypes of how “people” in any country behave to use.
> - Avg time to complete code review

Doesn't this depend heavily on the size of each PR? Sometimes it makes sense to have small changes, sometimes to have sweeping refactors. These would have vastly different times to complete a code review, for reasons unrelated to team productivity.
Hope it works out and it'll pay those utility bills ^^.
to add, as you know, this is part of a more general problem about type level programming vs write your own compiler vs the non composability of DSLs, where Julia folks in various other non ML domains like PPLs and fancy arrays have been wondering about how to do things that get compiled away, without relying on compiler heuristics or generated function blowups: https://julialang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/256674-compil...

Another non ML example I discussed with some Probprog folks is that there was an arxiv review of PPLs and Julian ones that heavily rely on macros don't compose well within and across packages. The same mechanism for composability which Dex uses for parallelism and AD (effect handlers) is what new gen PPLs in jax and Haskell are using for composable transformable semantics, so maybe that's worth looking into.

We've been having some discussions about how to bring that to Julia, but stalled on engineering time and PL knowledge. Eventually wanted to talk to the core team about it with proposal in hand, but never got there. Let me know if you'd like to talk to some of those folks who have been involved in the discussions as you design the new compiler plugin infra.

You are correct; an Android-based e-reader with a simple stand Bluetooth keyboard could work. I have used a Remarkable and Dasung Not-ereader for this purpose.

I believe creating an e-ink device is, in many ways, a new category of devices that requires changes to the hardware, software, and many other areas to create a cohesive experience for people.

In the long term, I see it as a process of creating an ecosystem of e-ink devices that is open-hardware and open-source.
My wife had a great time breastfeeding our first. Guy could eat and did. Zero issues.

Second, she needs a bottle to supplement, and even there she is not as great an eater.

The reality - fed is best in my view.

If you are getting so into breastmilk hype you are letting your kid get hungry I think that's a bad call?

The only irony is that one of the richest countries in the world has supply issues for what may be a critical item for children.

Good thing we are being told repeatedly that inflation and supply chain issues are "transitory", whatever that means. Rumor has it that there might be a strike on west coast ports? That should help sort things out!
I didn't consider it flag worthy personally I thought it was merely unclear and needed clarification as to what you were asserting.
Ok, nationalistic totalitarian socialist-corporatists, then.

> Why? Twitter included lurkers in its dataset, this article didn't, why should that impact stats in the direction of fake accounts being smaller?

Because you usually don't create fake accounts to lurk, but to do "something".

I'm speculating, but even when you create bots to boost follower counts you'd probably make them post now and then so as to seem "active".

It makes sense that the proportion of tweeting accounts being bots is much higher than the proportion of lurkers. And since there are also more lurkers in turn than posters, I would say that the real number is much lower than that.
When I lived in Scotland, Tropicana was the luxury juice option for the piss poor student I was.

And it definitely mattered that the label boldly proclaimed the name Tropicana, because that meant no need to read further in, just check if it was my preferred kind (no bits).

With the name missing, I'd probably end up not buying even if I had the funds specifically for it, because it would be easier to grab some juice from concentrate.
Blockchains are really just a shared public key cryptography system. It solves the key distribution problem and makes using keys easy for developers and users.
> So just rubberstamp your pr with a nit to score awesome on the first two?

If you're saying you can CR your own commits, that's a different problem to discuss unrelated to the numbers.

If you're saying you're coordinating so closely with the other devs on your team that they're picking up your CR's immediately and they're able to legitimately approve them with just a trivial nit, then congrats - you're "gaming" the system in exactly the way it's designed to be "gamed." In general, if devs are talking to each other and aware of what each other is doing, efficiencies are high and latencies are short. If no one is talking to each other, efficiencies are low and latencies are high. Talking to each other and coordinating with each other is a good thing.

Sounds similar to what I used in New Zealand quite a few years ago. However their system wasn't confined to mobile apps. Is pix mobile only?

Also in that system payments reconciled that evening, it wasn't instantaneous. To be honest I preferred that. I was able to fix a payment with a mistake before it went out.

I didn't ask about what was wrong with fish farming.

I said: you don't want to cut out ALL agriculture, even though a big part of present agriculture may be unsustainable.

So why do you want to cut out ALL fishing and fish farming? I know the answer is that you're a vegan, but that doesn't cut it if you want to convince those who care about sustainability.
Collectivism as a means of ordering a society necessarily tramples individual liberty, which yes, generally speaking, is bad. Communism is a subset of collectivism, just one of the flavors we've seen, so it is a collection of ideas that may be judged by their outcomes as bad.

Has zero to do with tech, however.
Ah yes, mainline support was the more condensed description I was after! That is indeed where it's at; if you are stuck with out-of-tree or vendor binary-only distribution, you're screwed.

It can be a bit of a hassle if all you have is something like "926EJS" as supported core instead of the SoC name "F1C100s", but either way, browse the linux kernel for support for your SoC to at least get a feel for its support status. If a (compiled) device tree for the SBC is available and the bootrom is either super small or open/free/libre, you can expect good integration and long life out of the device.

Even in the worst case you'll be able to follow generic buildroot or yocto instructions to get it running with up-to-date software.
Yes, Discord + uBlock origin on Firefox or Librewolf is the way I use Discord.

uBlock catches a lot of trackers, too.

I use TrackerControl [0] and DDG browser's tracker blocking feature. Discord is one of the worst offenders. I simply uninstalled the app.

Since it's not defined in the article, the "DEW Line" is the Distant Early Warning like, a string of radar stations in the far northern regions of Canada designed during the Cold War to provide early warning of incoming planes or troops from the Soviet Union.

Terraform is great for certain tasks, but even they advise against using it for local execution. Whatever you use it for you really need a provider and their module system isn't very intuitive either. Ansible has/had potential, but sucks in a lot of ways too. Unfortunately, as much as I dislike certain aspects, it really is the best generic automation tool available at the moment.
Since we're talking about linux and networking: does anybody know an updated book similar (in spirit/approach) to "IPv6 in Practice: A Unixer's Guide to the Next Generation Internet" by Benedikt Stockebrand ?
I think the generally good advice "never invest your own money" resonates fully with the notion of "never put your heart into it".
This is exactly what’s happening with crypto.

A user’s transaction on Coinbase rarely represents an actual transaction on the blockchain. A transaction actually represents a row in a Coinbase SQL database, which Coinbase will eventually batch and then convert into a blockchain operation.
The classic thing you’re not supposed to feed dogs: chocolate.

Which is definitely true. But what I didn’t realize is humans are the outliers in terms of chocolate. Theobromine is toxic to a wide range of mammals, and humans just happen to metabolize it much more quickly.

That applies only for Common Carriers.

Skype is not Common Carrier. It's an Internet Service which ISP's have been deadset on avoiding getting classified as covered under Common Carrier obligations because it would entail, according to them, enormous harm to the profitability of the sector due to the cost of increased regulatory compliance".

Telco's/Telephony must provide pen register/tap capability. Internet services as of yet need not. Until you become big enough for Federal LE to start harassing.

The relevant regulation in question is CALEA.
Works great for trivial cases where there's no interdependency between array elements. As soon as you need to access, for example, adjacent elements, you want to be able to just iterate over 1:length(X) - 1 and access a[i-1] and a[i]. This is the most direct way and thus easiest to get right. Abstractions only make it more error prone.
Isn't that the point of things like cloud-init, and other system tools. Ansible may not be great at deploying, but the whole purpose would be to catch the drift using Ansible.
Yep, it wasn't too hard to get it working. I modified my theme slightly to get rid of the search bar that doesn't work, and I hid comments, since those won't work either.

I have been in this situation post-hire. I asked for outstanding shares and other documentation about my options. I never received anything. Just a single "You have X options" line on my pay summary.

Unsurprisingly, my options turned out to be the typical startup-style employee incentive options which were invalidated/worthless upon the company being acquired.

I was young and new to the industry so didn't know any better at the time.
So it's hard to change? You don't say... Do we have any choice about it? No.
It might be some sort of opaque incentive where gov goons tell you they’ll make life difficult for you if you don’t comply, but I certainly have not ever seen this being an open requirement. Signal still exists, for example.
> This is what web3 is trying to get back to.

No, it's trying to extract money out of clients for every transaction they perform. Moreover it requires all users buy into the cryptocurrency Ponzi to participate in that rent extraction. So you trade real money for Geoffrey dollars in order to pay money to read a fucking tweet.
> If someone loans you BTC, the supply of BTC has not increased.

True when someone does it, false when a fractional reserve bank does it.

When someone loans money to someone else, money physically changes hands and there is no concept of a reserve. Banks are able to maintain the illusion of full reserves even though they operate in a state of perpetual insolvency.
That is assuming that the whole "we got hacked" is a complete fabrication. It is possible, but isn't it completely short sighted?
