There is no need to hold secrets - the economic model is not based on restricting access to media.

The songs are distributed DRM-free on IPFS which is peer-to-peer[1]. It remains to be seen how well Camp Chaos and its fans are able to host and pin this into the future as the media storage requirements are heavy - but that is an economic rather than technical discussion.

"arm secure" ... why can't the hardware designer do something simple and clean: remove this arm stuff, don't forget to allow ppl to remove physicaly and easily the bluetooth and wifi modules.

And now, time to write some assembly (without abusing the assembler preprocessor...), coze compilers (aka backdoor injectors, or absurd and grotesque bloats) should become, finally, useless (well some hardware vendor drivers will be provided as gcc/linux C dialect...)
> ...Especially if there is a very common refactoring bug and you get a pepperoni pizza instead of a pizza with one of the most natural toppings like pineapple.

Exactly! The DRY'ed example in the first section should read rather:

def make_hawaiian_pizza():
make_pizza(["ham","pineapple"])

This demonstrates the omnipresent dangers of untested copy-paste.

I curate a slowly-growing public Spotify playlist called "Flowstate: Repeatable FTW", consisting of strictly instrumental tracks spanning various moods / vibes, mostly ambient / chillout, with steady beats and no jarring transitions, suitable to play on repeat for deep work sessions. Enjoy!

Galaxy Watch 5 Leak
When Steam stops selling a game because of licensing issues and you bought it before, you still have it in your library and can download it from their servers. How and why is selling movies more complicated?
Every time I read an article like this, "why <often cited best practice> is overrated", I think, yeah you are right in theory. But most places I have worked, these best practices were not overused, but underused. If you have the problem that your coworkers create unneccessary abstractions, I envy you, because I have so often had the opposite problem. Maybe this is not the case if you work in a great software development team. But if you work somewhere where they do software development on the side (science, hardware, etc..) it is the main issue.

People not able to factor out functions or structure their code in a readable way. Variables are called v1, v2, v3. Unit testing seen as a waste of time. CI seen as a fun toy. They lack the experience to even notice the difference.

Maybe I'm becoming a curmudgeon, but I think many people would be well served by just googling "<my programming language> best practices", learning the acronyms like DRY, and just following them. And when you have gained some experience, sure, then you should question the wisdom and not follow it blindly.
Cool site. I’m from NorCal and enjoyed hiking in the Sierra Nevada, but I wasn’t familiar with the SPS reference. And it takes some digging on the Sierra Club site to get any definite reference. SPS is so specific and obscure. Why not a link to Wikipedia?
Lots of people hate MS because of their monopolistic practices in the past.

Myself, I always despised the company because of the complete shit quality of their software, starting with DOS. That was a pile of crap from day 1, and while much has changed since then, you can still see the complete disregard for quality in so much of what they do.
IMO, young kids need a phone that only has family numbers on it for texting or phone calls. No internet.
Because not everyone lives in the UK? And even if you do, ISPs can store data long-term, waiting for the laws to change and then retroactively find which customers they should keep a closer eye on.

Not to mention the non-ISP groups which also monitors the DHT for who downloads content they "own", ready to serve the data to governments at request.
>It does when I need to get a repair for something I bought that is still under warranty.

This simply doesn't scale through the entirety of society, because its only relevant to you and your relationship with the content provider.

If I'm being challenged on the ownership of movies on my personal laptop - having a publicly accessible register of my purchase of those movies is entirely more useful to me - and society at large - than the "private receipts stashed in a drawer" model you propose is superior to NFT's.

>Also: does keeping a cryptographic key safe scale through the entirety of society?

Yes. I can depend on it if I need to defend myself against claims of piracy and theft of intellectual property, no matter where I am in the world.. Having a globally-accessible register of my licenses is quite a bit more useful than if those receipts are stashed in a paper file somewhere remote.

I had an old iPad (before retina) and used it for general tasks, sometimes. My newer hiDPI iPad has become my primary device for everything but actual work.

I would never have read a book on the old iPad, I read several in hiDPI. It really changes the way you read if the fonts are (perceptually) as crisp as print.

It’s really not a huge hurdle. You have to install a few tools. If you’re a backend developer, this shouldn’t be too challenging. And what you get in return is:

Tailwind: CSS done right, in my opinion. If you haven’t tried it, it’s amazing. It’s a no brainer if you’re not great at CSS (which a self-proclaimed backend developer would not be).

React or Preact: it’s much better than cobbling together strings of HTML or using some proprietary template system. You build views with JavaScript and a teeny bit of syntactic sugar.

Vite: I haven’t used, but I do use esbuild which it abstracts. It’s fast, and gets out of your way so you can bundle everything up nicely.

If you add TypeScript to the mix, you now have one of the most advanced compilers in the world helping you catch your mistakes early.

I know it’s popular to bash on front end folks. I’ve been writing front ends, back ends, embedded systems, and more for over 20 years. These tools legitimately solve some gnarly problems and have turned an area I previously hated (web front ends) into one I kinda sorta like (or at least don’t hate).
The number of spam connections emerging from China and Russia are huge. For small firms who might not have the expertise or the budget to host things on CloudFlare, wholesale blocking off IP addresses from the two countries results in almost 100% decrease in spam.

I have a VPS which I maintain for myself to experiment with different services, and I do the same. The number of spam attempt to connect on my ssh port went down from around 10k per day to 1 per week.

If that were the case there wouldn't be an energy crisis in every country without nuclear power. Yet the less nuclear power a country has the more electricity prices have risen since 2010.
Do you the famous (and maybe fake) quote 'The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them' ?

It's the same here, but with selling energy to "capitalists".

What Europeans might have seen as purely economic affair for the USSR / Russia was just means of getting money to grow and support its army, to buy Western politicians and media influence, etc.
Having a relationship based on mutually beneficial economic exchanges is an important reason why one would treat their economic partner nicely. It’s perhaps not the reason, but it is a reason.

Given how peacefully it collapsed and the huge potential for mayhem, I’d stay away from altering the timeline.
I've become a big Polyrhythmics (https://www.polyrhythmics.com/) fan over the last year. Their music is high energy and somewhat repetitive so it works well for programming. They have produced a large number of tracks over the years.

For an introduction to their sound, I suggest Spider Wolf (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JZtrD2z5RDo).
60 FPS = 60 F/s = 6 F/100 ms - so where did you get 10-30? That would mean 90-270 FPS, you don't need that much for a cursor.
We've had 3 DSG cars between us - no problems so far. Mind you, they were under warranty and we get them regularly serviced.

My current car is a 1l 3-cylinder DSG Kamiq - which I am pretty happy with. Only complaint being the slow starting touch screen and the move away from physical buttons (e.g. for heated windscreen).
The Type of Love That Makes People Happiest
Ah good point. To me arts = artists, not entertainers, but you are totally right they should probably be included. When I think art I think paintings, statues, not movies or books but that's a shortcoming on my end.
Arguably one could say that this is a typing (as in type system) problem

`makePizza :: PizzaType -> [Toping] -> IO (Pizza)`

Seems to carry all that information by just accepting a PizzaType symbol and a list of toppings, `IO` communicating the side effect.

Highly dependent on what local brands are available. Look for unflavoured kefir or plain yogurt that isn't 0% fat.
Since the article comes from a “crypto”-related site, perhaps I can make a metaphoric (& mildly schizophrenic) response without getting downvoted. Google is USD and Meta wants to be Gold. The % of businesses that accept mainstream currencies have always been the same. What’s left are businesses that people still find socially unacceptable.

I really enjoy Alain's work, but your comment made me think it might be because I'm really unfamiliar with old philosophers. Would you mind pointing me to the ones you're referring to and whose work is approachable for a newcomer?

There are people living in some national parks or amusement parks. It's not that weird if done right.
The dot command is always what seems lacking in the various emulation layers. Either it doesn't work at all, or doesn't work the way you expect. As a dot command addict, this makes me sad.
They should have looked into consistent or jump hashing.
Even with up to medium complexities a simple useContext or React.Context is enough.

And with NextJS it makes react state management very scalable and rarely need redux at all IMO.
Gotta give Trump some credit: he managed to cripple more opposition party supporters than any politician since the civil war.
Why is it not the first elevator in my direction? I’ll need to walk the same distance if it ends up being the third. If it is the first I saved walking to the median and back.
The concept seems to be similar to the "Gridscale Storage"[0] system sold by Stiesdal technologies[0], which claims a round-trip efficiency of 55-60%.

The important insight here is that per Carnot's law[1], the higher the storage temperature the higher the theoretical max efficiency for thermal storage. Stiesdal had an initial concept that stored at even higher temperatures (1000C) and used a standard power plant steam turbine for converting back to electricity. But these turn-key solutions are probably more realistic.

If you are interested in realistic renewable energy, do browse the Stiesdal pages: Henrik Stiesdal [2] was pretty much the inventor of the modern wind turbine (sold the upwind 3-blade design to Vestas, CTO at Siemens Wind Power): He seems to have a superb intuition for industrializing heavy machinery. I am keenly following his advances into electrolysis and floating offshore wind power.

And then when someone asks for help with a legacy system say, "let's look at the docs together and I can help you take care of that yourself so you are not depending on me".

Not all will react well to that, but those who are also looking to grow in the org will see there is an opportunity to grow some valuable expertise, with you as a mentor.
It's important to remember with most of these thermal batteries is that they are limited in efficiency by the laws of thermodynamics, both when putting the energy in and then again pulling it back out.

The net round trip total power loss is usually well above 50%.
The idea definitely was to make the complex programs we write in Python more accessible to a larger audience who typically don't program or know Python. So, they can play with it.

Something I am trying to explore is a visual tool to build ML models.
I was unfamiliar with this issue. Was their name Yellow Horse in English? Or was it supposed to be written in a language not available so an English translation was used?

I have a feeling that if it was written in the original language it would go through, since many English names also have adjective noun original meanings like ‘beautiful flower’.
Argue that legacy system needs to be kicked off the kerb, that you do not wish to be the sole owner of these. By making it someone else's problem you will share the pain, and therefore add a voice of "discontent" to change.

For time management, there isn't any silver bullet, and we just have to work around hard constraints. Btw one solution might work for you, but not necessarily.
> You have to hope your hospital uses CPT codes and not, say, DRG coding, or something else entirely, otherwise you'll need to look up those codes too.

This is a bit of a misunderstanding. CPT codes are part of professional services billing, while DRGs are exclusively for inpatient acute care billing. If you are admitted to a hospital, you’ll probably have to deal with both.
Feels like there's a 10-year cycle of this:

1. Companies lock down access until everyone starts pirating, broadcast rights become increasingly worthless.

2. A company realizes that this is a great opportunity to provide easy access to all of the media and becomes wildly succesful. Broadcast rights suddenly become very valuable.

3. Goto 1

> Wealth is not a fixed pie (PG).

I've read a fair bit of PG's writing but hadn't dug into The Pie Fallacy referenced here. Wow, what utter nonsense. I've certainly not agreed with everything PG comes out with but this is a new logical low. And it's not just the usual problem of an oversimplified analogy not accurately representing more complex systems, the analogy[0] isn't even internally consistent with itself.

Digital Markets Act passes, but enforcement is a worry
Where Are the Microelectronics Engineers?
Theoretically you’re right.

Practically you’re not though, because as history attests, the USSR dissolved peacefully and thorough all the ups and downs the economic relationship survived.

This is perhaps why the warnings from the US were ignored for so long: they were based on self-interest and they had a track record of being wrong for decades.
The German Green party showed in multiple occasions that it's completely anti-science. They pick scientists that support their agenda, and then represent it as the one and only truth.

They are basically a spiritual successor of the middle-age Catholic Church. All they talk is about sacrifice, suffering in our earthly life for better afterlife, bans, and restrictions. The only difference is that instead of God, they swear by "Klimawandel".

And of course, it's not relatively rich Green party members and supporters that suffer from their policies. They keep their SUVs, flight regularly, and the poorer half of the population will need to save the planet.

Atom energy is bad, but fracking is obviously fine for them. What a bunch of hypocrites.

I hope the Green get off their moral high horse or get replaced before they do even more harm to the German economy, wealth and even environment. They are just the most destructive force leading Germany to collapse.
The general approach is to refactor/generalize when creating a third version of something. With the first thing, you don't know if it needs any common functionality or what an appropriate abstraction will look like. With the second thing, you have some similarities but not enough information to know where the abstractions should be -- here, repeating yourself is OK.

With the third thing, you should have enough information to work out where generalizations should be. Even then, only generalize what you need to at the time. Going overboard can add unnecessary complexity, so it is generally a good idea to be conservative in what you generalize.

As you add more things, you can refine and evolve the system as needed. At this time you should have a better understanding of the system and what parts can be shared and generalized.
I like this.

It is very hard to find out if the definition already exists or not in the codebase. This can lead to multiple definitions of the same thing or the truth.

anyone has a good way to deal with this?
In my workspace, the issue isn’t that junior developers consistently DRY too much or too little, instead they make dramatic mistakes in both directions. However, the code that repeats itself unnecessarily is way, way easier to fix than the code that tangles itself up like the left pineapple example.
It does not have to be via the same method; what the attackers discover from the first compromised machine may give them access to other machines. It seems clear this is what happened here:

Employees are under constant advanced spear-phishing attacks on various social channels and one employee was compromised... The attacker managed to leverage that access to penetrate Sky Mavis IT infrastructure and gain access to the validator nodes.
Depends on what you mean by "Linux laptop", but Dell XPS Developer Edition (comes with Ubuntu) have matte display options.
Sveltekit with typescript and adapter-static.

Sveltekit scales down very well: if you need only CSS and HTML for some paths, that's all you write in your svelte files, and that's also all users download. At the same time if for some other paths you need more Javascript, you can just add it there, without bloating the JS bundle size. Svelte's built-in stores makes it also possible to also do very complex state management, if that's ever a need. With vite under the hood the dev experience is lightning fast.
That's a pretty cool setup, but $6310 is about as much as I make in 3 months (Latvia), so it's definitely out of my price point. That said, it's pretty great that you can run containers and orchestrators (at least in some configuration) even on Raspberry Pi's or other SoC boards.

Right now I just have two local servers that have x86 200 GE's (35W TDP), some value RAM and a bunch of Seagate HDDs because that kind of storage is way cheaper than cloud offerings, and a few VPSes in the cloud, alongside WireGuard.

Though personally I'd most likely go for something boring like Ubuntu LTS, K3s and Portainer/Rancher for management. Actually Docker Swarm also works decently.

As long as you're settled on the OCI standard, it's a pretty great landscape out there!
It's not purely drag and drop, but not complex either

I personally go for lit[1] and sometimes typescript, and that's it.
Typically use open-wc[2] to have a starting template under a minute.

Then I use any of the front-end libraries that add bells and whistles. Vaadin coming on top [3]

I'm a backender, I don't have time to, nor want to learn the specificities of a framework. And I don't want my users to have to pay the cost of many dependencies that I'm not using the full power of.

Add firebase or supabase with netlify for deployment, and I'm done.

Isn't it smart to invest in Nuclear? Sure, there might be drawbacks right now but if we invest in research and improve it we might find a way to make it "greener"?

Also we seem to be focusing on space exploration again. To take off we're always using fossil fuel. I'm going to take a wild guess and assume that you cannot take a ship into space with wind and solar. Also a wild guess but if we develop nuclear enough we might get smaller generators that are able to help a ship take off and then continue to have energy while in space. I know too little to make these claims but I'm sure the smart people here can help me understand if I am wrong or correct :)
I would be surprised if it's really THAT easy to find any arbitrary movie ripped in full Blu/UHD quality without any transcoding, dowloadable within 30-45 minutes (average rip time). New Hollywood releases, sure I can buy that, back catalog stuff that's even the slightest bit obscure? I doubt it, simply because how many people are currently torrenting e.g., a full bitrate UHD copy of Django (1966)?

I've heard it repeated many times over the years that movie torrent sites are a magical one-stop shop where every movie in the history of cinema is available instantly and in full quality, but I've just never seen it except for new release stuff. Now perhaps the story changes a little with private trackers, but in order to use those you have to be an active seeder. Now you've moved from a simple DMCA bypass to actively distributing pirated content. Thanks, but I think I'd rather rip purchased movies onto my Plex server.
