I don't, and I consider it a wasted effort. There are existing apps for messaging.

Unless your app is a social app, and even then I'd integrate messaging only if it's a core ability.

At work, the team that was responsible for the app before I came along, 12 years ago, wanted to integrate a messaging ability into our internal company app.

I was literally shocked when they told me that, since that it reflected such a disconnect from reality, reality being the app was extremely crashy, not documented, and filled with bugs, and a disconnect from what users really wanted (I'm a former user turned core dev) that I couldn't even believe these people were for real.

Btw, does anyone know a library/program which can reverse engineer a regex from multiple source strings? E.g.

14:51 [info] 51 some message
… more of 51 lines …
15:22 [error] 24 error!
… more of 24 lines …

^(\d\d:\d\d) \[(info|error)\] (\d+) (.+)$

Or maybe not a regex, but a structured pattern.

Even if used on the unlicensed bands it’s still illegal to transmit in those frequencies without a license as the UV5R doesn’t comply with the restrictions of license free radios. I.e it exceeds the max allowed power and has a detachable antenna.

However, there’s nothing illegal about using the uv5r to receive. And in reality if you only use it on the pmr446 frequencies you’re very unlikely to get busted.
Spot on about the new picture being a stream.

"Super resolution" may be the marketing term to search for to investigate your interest. However sequential image composite decononvolution hasn't solved for usually desired out of focus transition effects commonly hand waved as " bokeh" because the important contrast gradient limit of the Airy Disc is convolution.

Accelerometers are appearing even in the lowest budget cinema cameras whilst ARRI, the de facto market leader who used to be the left field upstart (finishing The Bridge Over The River Kwai, critically being inexpensive light and ergonomic of which only ergonomic is arguably retained by contemporary boxes) has just gotten around to putting one in a smaller sensor camera that costs six times the bigger sensor competition. (I'll ignore the 3:2 vs 4:3 ratio of the newest ARRI is wonderful for anamorphic squeeze and utterly wasted for spherical shooting.. and ignore RED offering very usable ratio comprises.

I really like Microsofts new standard font Cascadia Code. It comes with PowerLines, bold/cursive and ligatures.
What does it mean for a wave to quantize? That is not something I (as a mathematician) are familiar with. It feels like something that bears a lot of explanation.
I would hazard a guess that the explanation makes it decently reasonable to call this process 'a particle'.

Certainly, to me it feels like saying 'it is just a wave' doesn't describe it because this quantization is a special thing.

> While Twitter has provided some information, that information has come with strings attached, use limitations or other artificial formatting features, which has rendered some of the information minimally useful to Mr. Musk and his advisors. For example, when Twitter finally provided access to the eight developer “APIs” first explicitly requested by Mr. Musk in the May 25 Letter, those APIs contained a rate limit lower than what Twitter provides to its largest enterprise customers. Twitter only offered to provide Mr. Musk with the same level of access as some of its customers after we explained that throttling the rate limit prevented Mr. Musk and his advisors from performing the analysis that he wished to conduct in any reasonable period of time.

> Additionally, those APIs contained an artificial “cap” on the number of queries that Mr. Musk and his team can run regardless of the rate limit—an issue that initially prevented Mr. Musk and his advisors from completing an analysis of the data in any reasonable period of time. Mr. Musk raised this issue as soon as he became aware of it, in the first paragraph of the June 29 Letter: “we have just been informed by our data experts that Twitter has placed an artificial cap on the number of searches our experts can perform with this data, which is now preventing Mr. Musk and his team from doing their analysis.” That cap was not removed until July 6, after Mr. Musk demanded its removal for a second time.

Interesting. Technical limitation, or not, it's unlikely that their API was changed just to upset Musk's team. It's most probably a pile of wonky code with artificial limitations hardcoded by customer so it doesn't crash their database.

I recommend you to look at Lunduke's twitter (@thelunduke)… "Facist" depends on the definition of Facism you go by, but deeply conservative (which many non-conservative people call "reactionary")? Definitely.
Exactly!

That reason is that the process you describe takes time and space, both of which are much much cheaper outside of cities than inside of them.
True but they didn't have to deal with the complexity of the modern software where a typical project can pull in thousands of dependencies (transitively).
It's the same in the UK:

https://www.gov.uk/wind-up-a-company-that-owes-you-money

"To wind up a company you must:

* be owed £750 or more
* be able to prove that the company cannot pay you
"

That's it.
I don't know how feasible this will be but I love the idea. Very cool.
> Designing good UI is an incredible skill, one that few people gave, and one even fewer are willing to pay for.

I don't think it's even just that. If any of these companies did usability tests they'd discover quickly enough that their designs don't work. I guess they just don't bother.

I have worked in software development since the mid 90s, often freelance so I've probably been at 20-30 companies in total. All of these companies produced software that had some sort of UI. I think only a single time was any usability testing done, i.e. get a normal person sat in front of the software and get them to perform a task and see if they can figure it out on their own. Normally the process is that the designer asserts that this particular way is best, and that's the way it gets implemented and that's what the customer gets to use.

Not to mention, could the officers of the company be held in contempt of court?

That tweet seems a bit weird, especially coming from him.
It doesn’t really matter. The time to ask these questions was before signing a binding contract to purchase the company.
There are several talks by WhatsApp people who describe how they're scaled their systems. They run on FreeBSD and used Dtrace to quickly find bottlenecks in the BEAM VM. BEAM has a very good builtin instrumentation, but if you're only looking on them, you're missing a lot. Also they committed upstream many of their improvements.

Not only WhatsApp, but also the initial implementation of APNs (Apple Push Notification System) was based on ejabberd. They even used the same port numbers.
I did an ejabberd scaling training in SF in 2011, and there were several Apple guys. It doesn't mean that they're used ejabberd for sure, but it's a hint.
I guess it means that the governing equation has a solution space which is somehow discrete. I would like to know if there's a more precise definition than that!
The server was setup to use ftp.ca.debian.org, which currently resolves to 207.210.46.249, and the whois for that mentions Rogers.
A function in the mathematical sense is total (always terminates).
Agreed; I think games --- especially ones where realtime reaction is required --- are the only acceptable use of such controls. Otherwise they're just a really unpleasant "race condition".
I believe the idea is that lots of 'random' entanglement effectively concentrates the probability distribution, which is what destroys super-positions. Effectively saying things are due to the central limit theorem.

Saying 'everything is entangled' might not be that meaningful if the entanglement is random. If you want to get to super-determinism then it takes some very weird 'knowledge' in the entanglement. Rather than the entaglement being random.
JavaScript just got way faster
The designers of the LHC will be very surprised to learn their machine is just twisting fields together.

You can easily count individual photons, electrons, etc in an undergrad physics lab. How do you think that's possible with fields alone?

There's an interest in particles because there is no way to measure fields directly and the output of QFT is a set of particle-like probabilities.

This is not a trivial problem, QFT is not a trivial solution to it, and the paradoxes really haven't gone away.
The idea is, that text is great when you come to the UI for the first time. But, as you use the software every day, it's slow to read the text, so your eye becomes accustomed to the icons and you can use them as a shortcut to save yourself having to read the text. The icons should all be different shapes (as the eye sees the outline of a shape the quickest), be different color (but not only different colors as some people are color blind). I think this used to be common UI knowledge but I remember reading it in design guidelines for the original Mac OS X 10.0.

Somehow this has all gone wrong through: no text so the first time you use it you've no idea what the icons mean, they are all the same color and pretty much the same shape so you don't even get the speed of recognition.
This is the kind of use case I’d like to see more of! Less of the p-zombie copywriting neoplagiarism services with pot-luck output, more GPT-as-backend functional apps as productivity multipliers, if that makes sense.

There is a problem with {trans, homo, etc}-phobia. But this made a point of this person being trans for some cheesy inclusivity. None of the trans people I know talk about being trans, or wish to talk about it. No-one I've ever worked for would judge against someone for being trans.

In a sense, it's a solved problem - once crappy publicity videos like this can be produced, the battle has largely already been won, or the video would never have been produced.

Happy to have a conversation with you on reasoning, and apologise if I'm wrong in how I read your reply message, it feels like a curt criticism statement, not add value to discussion.

He didn't play anyone, he got played. There was a ton of way he could have sold stocks without being on the hook for a 44 billions purchase he doesn't want to close. And he even could have sold the stock without any excuses since the stock fell anyway.

He is not getting anything out of this that he couldn't have gotten in a better, smarter way. But they told him he couldn't so he let his ego get the best of him again and got himself trapped.

Even went ahead and threw out his right to due diligence, which is the part that confirms it was ego and not smart thinking, and the entire reason he cannot get a clean exit now.

What wave are you referring to?
I was thinking about when I ever use a non standard programming font, which is almost never. Just in iTerm i use a powerline-enabled font.

But then I remembered that in most Mac applications that have code somewhere, I have to switch from Monaco to Menlo as a first configuration step. I wish the Mac had a system wide font preference setting for monospaced (and serif/sans) fonts.
The article says to use both - not a preference for using absolute numbers at large scales.

If they know what Venmo's real address is, because presumably they would've already seen the real emails many times, then the sudden change of address could be noticed and arouse some suspicion. As it is, without that hint, they are even less likely to notice.
This doesn't reach Alps, it stops at foothills of them (Luzern, Thun). Of course its not absolutely flat, but it will mimic existing regular speed rail system.

Due to it not being rail, it can tackle few steeper parts (ie uphill around Lausanne, that's solid 300m altitude difference). Lausanne subway (tiniest city in the world to have one) also uses rubber tyres on the section which goes straight uphill.
You do need scalability as a fundamental component in availability.

Release cadances are important toward maintaining stability and vulnerabilities. Without a maintained application you lose availability.

You are still asking where does scalability fall in? There are several points for building a scalable system.

One is a design on load. So if you work on a ruby application you will know that typically unicorn is single threaded unless you want to do something like sidecart nginx. Not always the best.

Going toward infrastructure with a ruby system. Someone might say oh lets stand up an instance let puppet manage it.

This is where someone just decided to use an orchestration system that typically supports ruby. The flaw in this is that if you are leverage a non-binary deploy and forcing the need to use gems at setup on an application you create a massive potential for drift to exist across your instances.

Suddenly you say I will use ansible to run scripts to verify the host and applications run and that they didn't lose coherency.

The flaw with this is that you just overly complicated your system and likely dug yourself a mile of tech debt.

What you would use is a scalable system be it lambda or containerized solution liek kubernetes.

One of the biggest wins is speed and deploy cycles too. Kubernetes and lambdas are scalable solutions.

So as an application organically grows in load a scalable system will allow organic resizing on the basiss of demand ensuring that it maintains availability.

You should embed one reliability engineer on a team who can also code.
That would imply that he didn’t outplay SEC, which is a big deal. So not that smart.
Interesting, thanks, I'll have to ponder that. I'm not sure I understand what probability distributions mean in a deterministic model.
The only example I can think of is the bifurcation non-generic collections vs. generic collections in the early days of C# when you had a non-generic collection and couldn't pass it to a method which expects a generic collection, but it was the consequence of the development history of C# and is not a problem of generics per se.
google, for all its money, makes shitty shitty UI, and not only is it shitty, it feels like its made specifically to make your life worse. lemme explain:
1. Gmail on phones -not only are there tons of minor design inconsistencies, oversight like what this article shows, theres also no effective way to organise your messages. there's an option to open calendar on the bottom of the hamburger menu (also inconsistent, this menu got removed from some other Google apps) it only works with Google calendar.
A lot,if not all, of what you wrote here is true and I experienced some of it both as the end user and as an admin. However what are the alternatives for a business where most users sit on Windows? Google suite is a joke for anything but simplest tasks and config is lacking. Yes, Microsoft can be cumbersome, bloated,but it has to support 5 people shops to enterprises with tens of thousands of users and config complexities.
Jazz pianist here, I also strongly disagree that scales are useless. I had 90 minute classical piano lessons once a week from 6 years old to 16, 30 minutes of that learning scales, which in later years includes contrary motion, arpeggios etc. I'm so grateful my teacher put in the time! I practised them every day until my 30s. There's nothing better for feeling where in your hand you're rusty, always trying to make them sound as musical and even as possible. Also when you do them regularly, you can feel when certain hand movements are more difficult or rougher than usual - they're the best way of knowing exactly where you're at physically.

Not sure what you mean "you can just 'hear' scales". "You don't need to practice them any more"...except for the main reason you play them, for "warmups and physical training"? i.e. you do need to practice them. Or at least, they're the best thing to practise, I've found.

The first few years, they're so your fingers naturally play good fingerings on most things without having to think about it, and finger muscle training. After that, they're for, I guess, warming up and what I'd call more maintaining and recovering peak muscle condition than "training". 5 minutes of very fast, musical-as-possible scales and unless in peak form, your arms are falling off with muscle fatigue hehe.

Also I went through Liszt's book once and wrote down the exercises I found the most difficult, and practiced them for years. Also learnt Ravel's LH Concerto to strengthen my left hand.. But scales always.
Why wouldn't courts have the power to do that? If the court rules you have no grounds to terminate the contract then you will have to execute the contract as originally agreed upon.
FWIW, the operator for a couple of the still-running plants told the local newspaper that preparations to shut down were too far advanced to abort. They'd need to order parts in order to continue staying open, and the lead times on many parts were long, and time was already too short. The wording implied that this was one reason rather than the reason.

That was a few weeks after Russia invaded Ukraine.

> G2 tangential: same as G1, but the surfaces are tangential

This makes me think "tangential to what?".

Do you mean that, along the seam between G1 and G2, the tangent plane to G1 at a given point is equal to the tangent plane to G2 at the same point?
