I'm not sure that PocketBase would be suitable for your use case, but it is distributed also as a Go package (see https://pocketbase.io/docs/use-as-framework/) and you could combine it with any other GUI Go package (fyne, go-astilectron, etc.)
He doesn't address the problem of in a large project, sometimes it's better to copy and paste a function to avoid the extra library dependency. DRY and over coupling are two forces that must be balanced by the engineer. Dry is more important at small scales, over coupling is more important at large scales.

Then that points to another problem: that the people who have this adaptation aren't doing anything to eliminate its necessity (e.g. contacting their representative about dumb labels on things, or sending negative feedback to a website that has a bunch of useless text on it).
This - definitely, any platform with a userbase that's substantially comprised of children and which offers free communication is going to be a complete disaster requiring ridiculous amounts of moderation and careful parental involvement.

It is clear that Roblox have failed to deliver the moderation capabilities necessary to market their platform as "safe," and are more interested in making money.

But the jabs at Robox employees for furry-adjacent follows on Twitter, and another for retweeting some fan art that happened to be from a problematic account, are totally random and unfounded - what's that got to do with anything?

And the half-baked "money laundering" investigation distracted from the issue at hand and deserved either a second post and more investigation, or none at all.

There are radionuclides in those casks with half-lives of 200,000 years - much longer than human civilisation, and much longer still than the lifetime of a human writing system. We don't even know how to make a label that will make sense in 200,000 years.

This attitude only makes sense if one's view is that humanity isn't going to last more than 10,000 years.

Unless we can find a way of rendering nuclear waste safe, then we have to find a way of making it so inaccessible that a future civilisation is unlikely to come across it by accident, and so secure that even a major earthquake won't cause it to leak into the environment.

Storing this stuff in metal tins on the surface isn't even a gesture at a solution.
When I started working on Sun systems back in 1991 the first terminal I used was an old model that didn't support all the cursor controls, so my only option for editing was ed. I worked that way for a year, so for a long time I was more comfortable in ed than vi. Of course on most systems nowadays ed and vi are now different modes of the same editor, as the article notes.

From the perspective of reading/writing CSVs programmatically, I actually prefer that it's a common character. You'll discover very quickly whether the parser handles escapes correctly.

For the future reference of anyone wanting to write text-replacement addons, using one of the techniques here https://stackoverflow.com/a/50537862 rather than simply doing `body.innerHTML = body.innerHTML.replace(...)` will avoid the problem of breaking links/scripts/CSS that happen to have your target phrase in the URL.

I don't expect this will change your mind, but the base-pay cap was increased significantly last year. Also, a few years ago the sign-on bonus changed from being paid lump-sum to pro-rated, so there's no more claw-back. The RSU vesting schedule is still the same, although that might be a boon for anyone accepting offers in the last year (cash push, stock down).

Theoretically, yes; in practice most private equity is no better at management than the people they are replacing. Often times they miss the fat and cut the bone instead.

It's hard to actually see what provides company value and what is actually expendable. Remember that the whole idea behind free markets is that you can't perfectly know and precalculate every input and output of an economy; you want a distributed set of economic actors making decisions for themselves. And large businesses are not immune to this - they operate not like tribes, but like little mini-economies unto themselves. If we actually could "cut the fat", command economies would have worked and America would have collapsed instead of the Soviet Union.
> And how can I leverage my wealth of knowledge to become a successful entrepreneur?

Entrepreneurship is a distinct skill that's different from being an engineer; or even being an administrator in a business.

You can start a business around your knowledge; just assume that using your knowledge is going to be 1/3rd of your day-to-day activities. The rest of the business is going to be doing things that are probably unrelated to your knowledge.

Is the "content" described as "Movie Title" or "License to view Movie Title for a limited time arbitrarily determined by us"?
Agreed. Including those killed the tone of the article. It reads like a hit piece.
LiveView can handle that pretty well, you can setup a click or validation handler for your live view / component. It then hits the handler function on the backend and you can have the component updated in place. Since it only sends the diffs down it's pretty efficient on the round trip, at least not something to worry about compared to the hundreds of api calls most SPA's will make.

So the flow is 1) click the checkbox 2) call sent across the open socket 3) backend does it's logic to figure out what it needs to do 4) backend returns the small diff of changes 5) frontend alters dom.

> It's just sad to see how little actual science is respected in Germany.

What part of this entire discussion has anything do to with science? Is anyone actually contesting the science?

Is it a discussion about the number of orbitals of uranium atoms? Or is it a discussion on which entities handle the long-term financials obligations, whether we favor or not decentralized grids, whether we favor short term or longer term solutions -- which in turn depends on whether the (possibly international) risks are long term or short term, etc. Not much of the later is "science".

Politics is not a science and never can be. This entire story -- the word "green" itself -- is as unscientific as it gets. Not in the "science contradicts it" sense; I mean in the "this is neither provable nor falsifiable and science has nothing to do with it" sense.

That's a pretty clever hack, nicely done!
A bit OT, but I've always found that beyond 2560x1440, I can't really tell the difference on a laptop-size screen. If anything, the only 4K laptop I've owned was a bit more troublesome than the 1440p ones because so many applications had scaling issues that I had to deal with.
> And what I've found is, this doesn't make people read your documentation. What it does is it makes people stop asking for it. Hence my belief about it being a ploy more than anything else, again, perhaps not consciously, but in effect.

I can't say it always stops people for asking them. Even when they've commented on the documentation when it was shared, even when the conversation started around a link to the documentation, I've found people one month in when it's time for them to do something ask for documentation with the implication there is none, and if you provide it in the meeting where they're trying to prolong the process they just insist they need time to review it despite having had at some stages a month to do so (or having left comments that at least indicate they already did)
the irony of this thread is beautiful.
In most cases I find `sed -i` to be more convenient than using ed in scripts, but the paradigm is a little different.
It does - and you can do it multiple ways.

The obvious way to do it is as follows:

* Setup an excel sheet with "Name" and "Age" in A1 and B1, then put some sample data in.
* Highlight the data and go insert -> table and hit 'ok'
* Where it says Table Name: put in "Users"

If we want to refer to the array of names in that table, you would now say =Users[Name] in a formula.

As another example, if we wanted to find the average age, we could simply say =Average(Users[Age]) passing in the ages as an array.

If we made another two columns - MathsScore and EnglishScore, we can either automatically create a column adding these up ([@MathsScore]+[@EnglishScore]), or alternatively these ranges can then be used in spill formulas.
Trusted execution environments can serve all kinds of useful purposes. Secrets management (TPM/tokens/etc.) is a very common use case, as is DRM (though I don't expect too working DRM on a RISCV system).

If the chip can be disabled or if its firmware can be controlled with custom signatures (i.e. a ROM managed through an open boot mechanism such as coreboot) then I don't see any problems with such a core, even in a fully FOSS system.

It's unlikely that this freedom will actually be given to customers, but I don't see any theoretical problems here.

> Aren't "modern" nuclear plants such as the EPR all a) very late and b) massively over budget?

The Finnish one was both due to epic project management failures, from bad suppliers with dodgy welds, to changing the reactor design as it was being built to accommodate future regulations. Flamanville is also late and over budget for much of the same reasons (shoddy project management and unreliable suppliers; this time the concrete was out of specs as well). These sort of issues get sorted naturally if yew build in series instead of one-of-a kind.

The Chinese did not have any problem building two, and the British one is progressing more or less as planned.

Also, the EPR is not really a modern design.
It sounds like they are completely failing to scale their moderation teams with their platform. This is extremely dangerous and causes real harm. They need funded ML engineers, human reviewers, policy experts, product engineers, data scientists, and the will to protect people. Like any massive social network this is a moral imperative.

I don’t know what the current state is of their roadmap but I hope for everyone’s
sake that they get their act together quickly.
It's not usually needed (especially these days), but there are times that it is better to repeat every possible iteration by hand and not have a loop.

This is a technique called loop unrolling. It is done for performance reasons. This is something we used to do at a company working on games for the old feature phones (think Nokia 30/40/60 series stuff). The devices were very limited, there is no direct control over J2ME garbage collection, etc... so loops could very noticeably slow down games.

We initially wrote code with loops, then would performance test and manually unroll when it was necessary. Eventually this became very burdensome and we eventually... wrote code to unroll the loops for us and that code of course had loops in it because it was build code that wouldn't ship.

There are other performance situations where this technique applies.

This may not have been the situation there, but I think it's important that rather than assume stupidity from the outside that we try to ask why.
Sarcasm noted, but still this just reeks of a cheap attempt to rally the troops before Mid terms.

Sorry what's your contention? or do you have one?

Backprop is backprop on CPU or GPU - it just runs (way) faster on GPU. So while you can do some stuff with NN's on CPU, you can do more stuff with NN's on GPU.

Further, the sources you reference are from before advances made in software and hardware for massively parallel GPGPU architectures (CUDA), so it's kind of a moot point anyways. Those researchers may have had access to such a system, but you definitely couldn't just `pip install pytorch` on your gaming GPU in the 90's...

Yes indeed, but at least some of the acts described in the blog post would land "normal", non-stock-listed forum operators in front of a court: aiding gambling activity and child abuse are serious crimes.

There are numerous laws that detail the responsibilities of operating anything on the Internet that is targeted towards children, and Roblox seems to be completely ignoring these. Not to mention they are ignoring their moral responsibility of protecting their underage users.

Roblox needs to shut down Robux redeeming immediately and prevent any kind of interaction where one account has not been verified to be of age and accounts that have been verified, and maybe allow interactions between close age groups. It's not that hard to do so.
Personally I think the cultural demand of AR can be met by other means.

For instance a phone can lock on to QR codes in the environment and add content over what the camera sees. (I have content that is good to go for this model but I gotta learn ARKit and fight with the App Store to get it to you.)

I went to an interactive art exhibit (imagine some hippies are making Disneyland on a shoestring budget) that scanned a sand table with a Kinect and projected contour lines on top of them. Disney can reskin Space Mountain quickly by just projecting something else.

It seems to me that people aren’t doing everything they can with projectors either directly onto surfaces or using half mirrors like “Pepper’s Ghost”. These are mainstream for musical performances but I’d like to see somebody do a sketch comedy routine with one.

> GUI tools. There was Frontpage and HoTMetaL and some others. These were actually pretty decent because there wasn't so much you could do with HTML. You could drag'n'drop your content, then clean up manually if you wanted.

This really helped me power up my HTML skills. I initially hosted my site on Geocities, and later my university's home directory based hosting. I first created documents by hand using a basic text editor for Macintosh (often: view source on another site to copy something nice over), but I later found GUI tools like Frontpage with some basic templating features built in.

Once I figured out what the GUI tools were doing, I could more easily understand how to create documents manually or - eventually - generate them dynamically from perl cgi.

It's easy to look to the past with rose colored glasses, and while the technologies then were much simpler, they were also terribly hard to discover and much more limited.

Apart from they wreck perfectly viable businesses…

Let’s take Debenhams in the UK as an example

- Used to own all it’s stores
- Got bought by PE (who attached the debt they used to buy Debenhams to Debenhams so the PE group now owe zero)
- Split the stores from the retail operation but made the retail operation lease them on ever increasing rents
- Sold the stores to British Land
- Eventually Debenhams retail can’t afford the rents (as they only ever increase), and the debt payments so goes bust

Similar patterns with PE acquired companies not being able to afford their debt payments is common, coupled with PE companies extracting any free cash as a dividend shortly after purchase

What PE companies are doing isn’t culling the weak but extracting the most they can from businesses and then leaving suppliers, employees, pension scheme members to pick up the cost
