Hyundai owns Genesis/Ioniq and part of Kia so it's not exactly the same.

I think the parent commenter was talking more about a company specializing in the EV platforms like Hyundai-Kia's EGMP or VW's MEB on which other companies would build cars.
There’s a discovery of an unexploded WW2 bomb in and around Nuremberg at least every year or so, followed immediately by the evacuation of the neighborhood around it before the experts come in to defuse it (hopefully not have to explode it).

This is particularly exciting when they find one near a major train station, like in Nuremberg about six or seven years ago, especially midday or afternoon…

They’ll be finding those things for the rest of my toddler’s life.
I have read that metals like aluminum, copper, zinc, and iron can play a factor in the onset of Alzheimer's, but that might be related to the amyloid plaque theory.

I regularly take zinc and iron supplements and have used aluminum based deodorant, so I hope there's no relationship!

Or second-run/revival theaters. I used to be very involved with a film group undergrad. We could get weekend audiences for a thousand people or more for relatively recent (but no longer still in theaters) movies and hundreds for older films.

These days, whatever preferences some people may have for seeing films in a theater with an audience, attendance has dwindled to very few.

Hmm, I wonder what other high-visibility areas of research suffer from similar problems
Committees, like all decision-making entities, are sure to make mistakes. This is a good argument for multiple independent funding sources for research.

To some extent these exist, like HHMI. This article does not go into detail about why those institutions did not fund different research, which would be interesting to explore.
It looks to me exactly like a golf cart that had a body kit put on it. Same proportions.
The ones in the toilet are the ones you actually read. So, your example tells its own story.

Which ones on the shelves are within reach of your arm from the chair? They're most likely to be the second set, the ones you need, in crisis. The rest? they're ego, history or sentiment.

My partner and I almost exclusively read kindle now. Our books are organized as "in your room, they're too dusty to have out in the world any more" and are mostly alphabetical, fiction split from factual, with reference books buried because we don't refer to them any more, and few opened these last 5 years. Some of the beautiful ones are behind UV resistant glass.

We check the cookbooks periodically.

I don't keep books in the bog any more. I used to read Brant Parker, Johnny Hart and Bloomsbury there. My mum kept Georgette Heyer, and Elle (in french) there. My dad had his stash of Edgar Wallace.
Regarding the latter: This is not how Schumpeter works, this was not about investment strategies, or currencies.
No worries! The same sentiment is what keeps me enthusiastic about programming day after day :)

So computer monitors have support for a communication protocol called Display Data Channel which is normally used by the host (Mac, PC) to get info about supported resolutions, frame rates, signal timing etc.

On top of that, a command interface has been created called MCCS or Monitor Control Command Set [1] which allows changing brightness, volume, input and a ton of other aspects of the monitor, by sending specific bytes through the cable. That cable can be HDMI, DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, VGA, DVI. It doesn’t matter, as long as it has dedicated wires to carry the I2C signal.

I2C is the 2-wire communication protocol used by DDC, and it basically defines things like “a pulse of 5V (volts) of x milliseconds followed by 0V of y milliseconds means the 0 bit. The 1 bit is represented by a pulse of 5V of 2x milliseconds”. It’s a bit more complex than that, also defining TCP-like features with data frames and ACK packets, but you get the idea. It’s something that both devices agree on so that they can send raw bytes using 5 volt pulses.

I’ve created Lunar as an adaptive brightness app for macOS after finding out about a little CLI called ddcctl: https://github.com/kfix/ddcctl

That’s where I learned how DDC packets look like, where to place the payload (brightness value between 0 and 100, input ID, etc) and how to write that to the monitor using the macOS I2C APIs.

When Apple Silicon came out, none of that was possible anymore so I had to go looking around kernel assembly and private macOS frameworks for “the Apple Silicon way” of writing data through I2C.

If you’re also curious how I learned that, it’s a very cool domain called “reverse engineering” and I learned it while working as a Malware Researcher at Bitdefender. A bit hard to get started, but so many gems to discover once you know how to open binaries in IDA/Hopper and look around their disassembled code.

The latest WMF "vanity project" is Wikidata, started in 2012. It is currently getting more edits than the most popular version of Wikipedia, and has been playing a pivotal role in the "open-source information" ecosystem.

The default way that most networking devices are managed is crazy in this day and age.

Like the post-mortem says, they will put mitigations in place, but this is something every network admin has to implement bespoke after learning the hard way that the default management approach is dangerous.

I’ve personally watched admins make routing changes where any error would cut them off from the device they are managing and prevent them from rolling it back — pretty much what happened here.

What should be the default on every networking device is a two-stage commit where the second stage requires a new TCP connection.

Many devices still rely on “not saving” the configuration, with a power cycle as the rollback to the previous saved state. This is a great way to turn a small outage into a big one.

This style of device management may have been okay for small office routers where you can just walk into the “server closet” to flip the switch. It was okay in the era when device firmware was measured in kilobytes and boot times in single digit seconds.

Globally distributed backbone routers are an entirely different scenario but the manufacturers use the same outdated management concepts!

(I have seen some small improvements in this space, such as devices now keeping a history of config files by default instead of a single current-state file only.)
Sun did have a firewall by the early 90's. It had application-level proxies, and you'd have to configure applications to bounce through it if you wanted to get to the Internet. In many ways, this was more secure than today's default for firewalls where you can make any outbound connection you want but only the inbound connections are filtered.

Note that I'm not arguing that Sun was a leader in security, but they did make some efforts that other companies didn't.
Is co-pilot distinctly different from the auto-complete feature of VS2022? I started using that a few months back and it gives far more complex suggestions than VS2019 but I wasn't sure if this was "co-pilot" or not.

USB-C is already becoming the norm, though. The market is working, and it's not necessary to make it illegal to invent an alternative that may be better. What makes this regulation extra baffling, though, is that everyone already has the ability to vote directly on whether they want devices to use USB-C. They vote with their dollars when they buy a device.
3rd party developers can only do so much. 'Study level' just isn't possible in MSFS. For example, yoke position is not linked to control surface position. Move the yoke full deflection and you only might only see the control surface move 5% if you are at a high speed. If you model an aircraft in the sim accurately without these geared control surfaces then it will pull 20G turns at 200Kts.

MSFS gets the most basic parts of the flight model and controls fundamentally wrong.

This speaks volumes about the need of standardized encrypted cloud storage protocols.

It always surprises me how fragmented the entire space is:
Syncthing "untrusted devices" support is still experimental, Nextcloud does support encryption, but it's hard to judge how trustworthy it is. Gocryptfs and ecryptfs should be solid, but they are hard to use in a browser or on mobile. Resilio, Borg, Tarsnap, EteSync -- yet more protocols, and without clear security analyses.

Same holds for commercial cloud operators: support for client-side encryption is starting to appear (Google Drive), but without an open, standardized client you still need to trust software from the cloud provider, which mostly defies the point of encrypting in the first place.

We’re not talking about “punishing” individual kids. We are talking about the policies adopted by non-profit colleges with respect to use of their endowments. I don’t see any problem with basing that decision on the desire to reduce income inequality—inequality that’s being driven in large part by armies of upper middle class people who have been pulling away from the middle class over 30 years just as even richer people have. What’s wrong with universities structuring their financial aid policies with that in mind?

that's an interesting point, but in practice I don't see how it's meaningful. If you write down a plus code and end up in a similar area, you contact the person with the address and figure it out without much issue. If you can't contact that person again, well you're at least most likely to be in the area and can ask around for directions.

with w3w if you can't contact the person with the address again, you've no idea where on the planet this place might be.

My pet hypothesis is that Alzheimer's is the effect of fungi on the body. I think depending upon genetics we have a certain resistance and as we age it weakens. Possibly early onset Alzheimer's could be any factor of exposure levels throughout one's life and or from genetics possibly weakening the resistance of the body towards fungi. While the type of dementia that most elderly develop is possibly the outcome of long-haul exposure to fungi. I've already read some research between fungi and Alzheimer's but not all. I'm just someone who has/had family members with the illness and I'm curious about it. edit: whoever downvotes me, please reply because I'm very curious on if you're downvoting for any specific reason from research that makes you highly doubt my pet hypothesis.
This article is really focusing on the negatives... Sequoia led the $5.5m Series A investment in Unity in 2009.

Sequoia made billions on that investment. Yeah, if they had timed the market better and gotten out sooner, they could have made even more billions. C'est la vie.
I've used Copilot to help with writing verbose unit tests. It can do it as long as you keep an eye over it (basically like an autocomplete), it definitely cannot produce robust test cases on its own though. If you try to do that, it won't take "meta-tests" to figure out they don't look right.
Not sure how common it is, but you can get serial OOBM devices accessible over cellular which would then give you access to your equipment.

I'm surprised more places don't implement a "click here to confirm changes or it'll be rolled back in 5 minutes" like all those monitor settings dialogues

The Alchemical origin of “Hermetically Sealed” (2007)
I’m baffled by everyone questioning whether it’s worth $10/month.

I’m certain Copilot gives me more than a 2% productivity boost. That’s a conservative estimate (I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s more like 10-15%). If you consider 2% of what a developer makes each month, it comes to a lot more than $10. I’m not based in the US, but Levels.fyi suggests it’s not unusual for devs there to make $200K/year, that would mean $16.6K/month, 2% of which is $333. Maybe that’s a bit reductive, but the point is, $10/month is negligible if it gives you a noticeable productivity boost on a developer’s income.

And by the way, I don’t particularly love using Copilot. It can be annoying now I’m over the honeymoon period. But I think it’s pretty clear it speeds me up by a noticeable margin, and time is money.
Sure it's a limiting factor if you're bringing the whole family grocery shopping, but that's probably less than 5% of all car users.

I also agree that I’d never assume copilot is right when it blurts out code, and that “writing code” is not the hard part — but I’d note three things I found from using copilot pretty intensively over the past year or so:

1. It has shifted some of the code-writing I do from generation to curation.

Most of the time, I have to make some small change to one of the first options I get. Sometimes I don’t. Sometimes I get some cool idiomatic way of doing something that’s still wrong, but inspires me to write something different than I originally planned. All of these are useful outcomes — and unrelated to whether someone is “actually thinking about what they’re writing”.

2. It has changed my tolerance for writing redundant code, for the better.

Like many programmers, I tend to optimize my code for readability first, and then other things later when I have more information. Sometimes, my desire for readability conflicts with my desire for code that avoids redundancy (e.g., “oh but if I put these three cases into an array I can just use a for loop and don’t have to write out as much code” etc. etc.) — and my old bias was avoiding redundancy more often than not. But copilot is really great at generating code that has redundancy, which has often helped me write more readable code in quite a few cases.

3. I refactor code way more now.

In part this is because, given code that already works but is not ideal (e.g., needs to be broken into more functions, or needs extra context, or some critical piece needs to be abstracted), copilot does a fantastic job at rewriting that code to fit new function prototypes or templates. IDEs can help with this task, for a few common types of refactoring, but copilot is way more flexible and I find myself much more willing to rewrite code because of it.

Copilot is not what many people want it to be, in much the same way that Tesla’s Autopilot is not what many people want it to be. But both do have their uses, and in general those uses fall into the category of “I, as human, get to watch and correct some things instead of having to generate all things.” This can be very useful. (FWIW, it takes some time to adapt to this; I teach and mentor a lot and I found myself relying on those skills a ton when working with copilot.)

We shouldn’t discount this usefulness just because these systems don’t also have other usefulness that we also want!
The fact that researchers can and will speak out against consensus is exactly why I do “trust science.” I don’t trust consensus theories to be accurate at every instant in time, particularly in areas that have received more limited scrutiny (or where experiments are expensive and time consuming), but I generally do believe that it’s the very best process the human race has ever devised for arriving at truth.
No they did not. You have to train on only fully permissive code to ensure that is not a problem
Part of the pitch is that it helps you learn new languages, which I do sort of buy.

But yeah, the hard part of writing nontrivial software isn't typing code, it's the software architecture and design.
In several years time, the US semiconductor industry will go under like the auto industry, the paper industry, the textiles industry, the home components industry, the steel industry, the electronics industry, the home appliance industry, the ....... (you can finish the list for yourself).

All of those new Chinese fabs will be out-competing the older US fabs. And the US is in too much debt to be able to afford the billions (trillions?) required to upgrade its crumbling technological infrastructure.

And all because the Chinese were perfectly happy buying hundreds of billions of dollars worth of semiconductors every year, and those sales to China were banned. Another case of "foot, gun, leg, bang!".

And the performance argument isn't even just about CPU time, right? The fact that JS is heavily event-friendly, and all of its IO APIs are non-blocking by default, gives it an automatic advantage over busy-waiting languages like Python, and also languages where concurrency means writing threads manually. If your web server spends most of its time on IO (network, DB, file system), as many do, JS acts as a lightweight task-delegator to a highly parallel and performant native runtime.

I haven't worked on a large-scale JS back-end myself, but this is the case I've heard others make

But Ethereum is a technically superior option for both cases. It does what Bitcoin can't do, but it also does what Bitcoin does better, and has a roadmap to improvement beyond that. Bitcoin is still wildly slow and destroys the environment, and Ethereum is on track to mostly not do that, to say nothing of "post-Eth" projects like Pulsechain.

Now, I'm sure Bitcoin will enjoy name recognition for some time, but in my experience, always bet on the tech.
