Sorry, I was really vague there.

If you run syncthing on your mobile device, you could make edits to a local copy of your plain-text content, and have those edits auto-committed/rendered/synced when they hit a computer housing the actual git repo.

I personally despise typing on my smartphone because I'm so much slower on it and I'm much more error-prone this way, but I use something like this for managing my personal todo.txt file and it works pretty well.
That seems unlikely to happen in the near to medium term. For that to happen, everything would have to be rewritten using a quantum algorithm and language, and run on quantum hardware. Imagine writing a web browser in a quantum language, within a quantum computing software ecosystem. It's hard to see how that would have any benefit.

If you are talking 100 years out, though, who knows?
This is where I'm at. Like thats honestly not much log data. But what are they actually logging? I imagine there is a LOT of repetitive data.

Fun Tailwind play story: I developed nearly my entire site using it. All the IDEs were simply slower. With Tailwind’s component based approach, it was no problem to develop each part in isolation and plug it in once it looked good on their playground.
The point of the article, perhaps not stressed enough, is that there are stable systems that can be very difficult to control. Zeros in the right half-plane don't indicate instability. They indicate nulls in the transfer function for unbounded inputs.

Poles in the right half-plane indicate instability. Zeros in the right half-plane indicate something a little more subtle. I believe the article is about the latter.
This is an excellent post.

> Create a simple end-of-workday routine (like reviewing your calendar for the next day and clearing all of those used coffee mugs from your desk) to signal to your brain that it’s time to switch out of “work mode.”

I think this is key. I had a 40 minute drive home. I don't miss the drive. What I miss is the demarcation of my workday and transition to free time. Maybe I could switch in and out of tennis shoes, like Mister Rodgers used to do.
For me I'd just like to hear a story and any relevant details. But the news orgs usually take a small bit of information and the rest is their opinion and extrapolation without much evidence. You know because sometimes they will reach a "verdict" which is opposite what the judge and jury reach after days of reviewing all of the evidence. I've realized it's up to me to find all the info, and try my best to determine the truth, which sometimes is quite literally impossible.

You can actually create a graph by using k-means similarities as edge weights. Then you do graph clustering on it. (using any algorithm, but louvain is one of the saner ones ... clique percolation, girvan-newman etc all have known problems).
I think a possible problem with this concept is the assumption that its application is a constant. It's definitely a bad thing to produce in the extreme _all the time_, however from time to time, depending on the industry or pursuit, an otherwise unhealthy obsession is admirable and necessary. Without such a thing, many of our innovations and industries would not exist today -- Tesla was pretty "toxically productive," it could be argued. Certainly in his case, he probably took it too far at times, but we'd be in mud huts with no running water if individuals such as he were not permitted to operate as they see fit.

If an individual or group of individuals doesn't want to be hyper-focused, fine, don't do it, but it's a dangerous thing to judge others who may be different for being different form you.

You misunderstood the parent comment. They were saying if the law changed then the US presidential election (or frontrunners if they compete in the primaries) would be Arnold vs Elon.

Meanwhile, Elon could not run against Arnold for governor of California: Elon is not a citizen of California and Arnold has been disqualified from running again since 2011 due to term limits.
Both - it first generates Terraform and run it on our servers to configure your AWS account (a bit like CI but for infra). And you can connect a dedicated GitHub repo for infrastructure that will get Terraform synced into. So after you make changes to your stack (for example, add a service or a database, or update an env variable) Terraform will get updated and pushed to that repository.

Not on my side, but it wouldn't be the first time some third party advertising server would be serving malware. Malvertising will restrict itself to only some visitors to make sure it's not detected and blocked too quickly.

The massive cookie wall I'm met with when opening this site makes it clear that it's probably impossible to determine which third party is responsible this time.

You can read the article safely here: https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fweb.archive.org%2Fweb%...

The web archive also seems to be redirected for some reason, though that might as well be intentional.

Edit: thinking about it, this might also be an attempt to use first party tracking to bypass third party cookie restrictions. Maybe they're A/B testing a new advertising tool?

Also, in theory if everything is efficient, the publisher can still extract value from used game sales as that supports higher initial prices.

At this point, even if the current system aren't conscious right now, if they start "to be awake" at some point, most of the current flow of information will be some kind of future input they'll get access to when they start to "think" by themselves.

> I don't want to be conscientious of the cost of my search usage, I fear it will inconsciously reduce my search usage and access to knowledge.

Sure, but this whole adventure won't last very long if the company loses money even on paying customers. If your usage costs them about $30 a month but you only pay $10, who will pay the remaining $20? Someone has to finance your access to knowledge in the end...
They're not primarily about individual performance, but if a company decides to cut X% of some group, it's going to make an effort to cut those it can most afford to lose, which is going to tend toward those they evaluate as lower performers, accurately or not.
Ahh I totally forgot about this. I'm wondering if you could make this work with any YouTube app where you can't use content filtering (like the app for Roku) across your whole network by creating a CNAME from youtube.com to youtube.com. in DNS? Though maybe that wouldn't work since DNS queries see those two domains as equivalent since '.' is just a delimiter.

I should be a responsible adult and pay for YouTube Premium, but I also try really hard to limit how much time I spend on it. Also, because of how annoying and intrusive the ads are (I'd say they're more frequent than regular TV commercials), I refuse to fall into their dark pattern to give them money. The harder you push me the more I resist out of spite :)
The 2008 paper released by the DOE pegged lights at 6.63TWH per year across all segments in the US. That's 0.02% of electricity usage in the US at the time, which extrapolated is still only 44 TWH in 2008. With 100% LED lights, the usage would be 0.663TWH according to the 2008 DOE paper. I'd assume we aren't quite there, but even so, much more than 2-3 TWH on holiday lights nowadays would be shocking.

> Even if a billion households had 50 strings of LED lights each and kept them lit 24/7 for all of December, they'd still use less energy than the annual usage of Bitcoin.

On the final math, at 5 watts per strand, you'd wind up with 182.5 TWH. Bitcoin at 150TWH-250TWH puts it into the ballpark. Nice.
I've decided that enjoying my life is better than making less $/h than I'm currently worth. I'll only accept more work if it pays more than that. My goal is to constantly maximize that figure.

I could accept all jobs regardless of pay and make more money by working at all times but that suffers from a serious case of diminishing returns. It's harmful for my self-worth and self-respect when I put in extra effort to make less than what my time is worth. So I just do nothing instead.
The whole cloud streaming games thing is weird to me. It seems to be something that only appeals to people who don't have any gaming devices at home. If I'm at home, where I have the best connection and it's okay to use, I have consoles and my desktop PC. If I'm not at home and I'm on my phone with a very good 5G connection (300Mbps) and fairly low latency, it feels awful. If I'm visiting a friend or at an office (in Germany), where I don't have any of my gaming devices, it's likely the internet there will be awfully slow too.
And it isn't too difficult for something to elevate itself to root anyways. It could just include a basic key-logger which would work on most systems and wait for your password. Unless you're on Wayland, you can see for yourself by typing `xinput list` and `xinput test <id>` using the id of your keyboard.

We collectively tried the approach you’re describing, and we stopped doing it because it sucks. It looks nice in simple cases, but the lack of encapsulation or locality makes it impossible to change upstream styles without breaking something somewhere else. Also you have to use horrible BEM-style names to avoid accidental collisions between styles from different parts of your app, which kind of ruins the elegance in itself.
The article refers to this kind of complexity:

That's not how lightning works. While it's true that the transactions are off-chain there is no trust element involved.

A channel between 2 entities is backed by real bitcoin and a scheme to manage the ledger based on bitcoin primitives (multisignature).

Lightning is just a series of channels + routing, so in effect it's a path of channels between you and the party you are transacting with + ledgers of those channels updating with the value that is being moved. At any point in time you can close any channel and materialize however bitcoin you have on your side.

You are not there only one. REs look like gibberish until you understand them. To me Rulex looks like gibberish but the REs they turn into make sense. I don’t think the syntax is inherently more readable, and the whitespace insensitivity + comments feature has been in Perl and Ruby REs for decades.

The difference with external dependencies is that they are in a sense independent from your code. The real devastating aspect with log4shell is that log4j couples and integrates itself with deployed code.

You can't just upgrade log4j without pushing a new release of your applications in the way you can say roll out an updated nginx or logrotate or kibana or whatever.
20 years ago the sugar lobby told everyone that sugar was good and fat was bad.

I'm all for banning specific ingredients and processes that are known poisonous (like BPAs for example are banned in many countries, deservedly) but unilaterally deciding what's healthy and having quotas for healthy foods is extreme. It will be the sugar vs fat thing all over and only the rich will benefit.

Just to make sure I understand what you’re proposing, taco trucks and ice cream shops would be illegal in your ideal world yeah?
Yes, but haven't you heard that productivity has gone up since we've moved to WFH? You'd probably have like 30-40 tick marks now if you toured all their homes.
Very impressive! The one-click demo works like a dream compared to the old PC Gamer demo disk. I did have some stuttering and one moment where my character kept walking for a second after I let go of the button, but not a deal breaker for a demo.

The biggest technical problem I saw is that right clicks aren't fully captured (I'm using Safari 15 on Catalina) and they open a context menu over the game.

If I were to keep playing this game, it wouldn't be through Stadia, for the reasons listed above. But I am much more likely to buy a copy for my PS5 than I was before. Good Job, Capcom Marketing Team!

> It is a shame that open source is much more of a subject in the world of programmers than in the world of user interface designers.

Is that actually a disadvantage?

Different people have different tastes. This is true for both the aesthetic and utilitarian aspects of user interface design. Our software should look and behave differently to reflect that reality, and the metric of success ought to be maintaining enough interest in the software to sustain its development. (In the case of open source software, that is attracting enough contributors. In the case of commercial software, that is attracting enough customers.)

Indeed, attracting more people may be more of a detriment than anything else. It may alienate the most dedicated contributors or it may attract users who do not contribute. (How many times have we seen open source developers gripe about their product garnering users who place excessive demands upon them?)

It would have required much forethought to predict, in 2002, that realtime communications would be happening in the browser. Thus WebRTC was born. But a tragedy of WebRTC is that it is not by-default compatible with SIP. WebRTC authors could have specified SIP as the signaling protocol over websocket, but they left the spec open ended. I feel two ways about this: glad for choice, but disappointed that the choice most often made does not allow for interop with the "legacy" realtime communications protocol, SIP.
Don’t Fully Spec Your M2 MacBook Air Out
It's a big topic. But 5/12 false positives tells you nothing about accuracy. You also need to measure the number of true negatives and false negatives and what not. Accuracy tends to be worthless for most use cases when the event being predicted is rare. If you're predicting a 1 in a million event always predicting NO gives you a 99.9999% accurate model.

Many medical tests are 99%+ accurate, but the false positive rate, meaning the probability that you don't have the disease given a false positive test is still extremely high. Like 90%+. Bayes law fucks us all.
