It feels like the root-cause of the decay and ruin is, by the end of the writing, a total lack of qualifying competence in leadership or government. the bungling amentia is so agonizingly glaring as to lead one to question if it, as the casualties pursuant to the fall of the raj in india or the bengal famine, were an intentional petulance...an act of thoughtless spite after having been made to atone for an atrocity and capitulate to the will of a people that had for so long been subservient to you.

the ruling party embraces fragments of political systems they observe, as a child might mimic their favourite tv cartoon character, but at the end of the day the jangling discord of kleptocratic nihilism drowns out whatever character features the government hopes to project abroad.
Retool is a great product, but I don't think your reasoning is entirely sound.

> do you want to risk with a startup or an established product that reasonably solves your problem

I think it depends greatly and I don't think this is a hard-and-fast rule. If you're adopting a product that is easy to replace and doesn't have huge vendor lock-in, and the startup offering solves your problem better than the established vendor, then a startup might be a better choice. Windmill is an open source product, so even if they went out of business, you'd still have access to the code which is a great way to avoid some amount of the risk surface area.

I switched to Apple Maps as part of an attempt to de-googlify my life. It's pretty good 95% of the time. That 5% inconvenience is worth it, to me. However, after seeing the OSM mentions in the comments, I'm inclined to check that out... Apple Maps doesn't have offline navigation, and I wish it did.

You've posted four comments now in someone else's launch thread. One was arguably maybe ok (though also arguably kind of rude). But you're going overboard now, so please stop.

Whether it's YC-funded or not, each startup deserves to be the focus of its own launch thread. There will be plenty of other opportunities for you to make a case for your own startup.
They said windfall taxes were something no US politician would talk about.

There's literally been a bill in Congress since March that's been referred to the Ways and Means Committee about imposing a windfall tax.

So it's not only something that US politicians talk about, it's something some have even proposed in Congress.
The reason why you don't know is that you've decided in advance that it's not actually needed.

.astro is not actually like MDX at all. MDX extends Markdown, Astro does not, it extends HTML. MDX is a variant of JSX, Astro is not, it supports things that JSX does not like void elements. Astro supports text inside of script and style tags, JSX does not.

If you think you can rebuild Astro with "a few extra preprocessor rules", then by all means go for it. But you're going to fail.
Thank you. I'm always happy so if she's happy, I'm ecstatic.

> How on earth is a windfall tax supposed to reduce inflation? Adding taxes makes goods/services more expensive.

Because a lot of price hikes haven't been because of inflation. They've exceeded inflation. Another word for that is "profiteering" (or "price gouging"). It's the reason why it's typically iellgal to profiteer off of a natural disaster, for example.

Put another way: Exxon, Chevron, etc are raising prices not because costs have increased but because they can. The record profits they've all recently announce bear that out.

So a windfall tax does a similar thing to increasing interest rates: it's a form of wealth redistribution. Raising interest rates diverts money to banks and investors. Taxation diverts money from corporate profits to the government who can then use that money for the people who are most vulnerable because of, say, the skyrocketing cost of gas and rent.
Maps' ads are a little more pernicious than billboards. You'll note that Google doesn't display all the businesses that appear on a map every time, but if you pay up it will display your business, even make it prominent.

OSM shows all businesses (as far as their data goes) and that is the right way to go. There are ways of dealing with clutter. The fact that I can't find what I know is there on Google Maps (unless I do a text search for it) is infuriating and a deal breaker.
Mapbox offers traffic data that they collect themselves.

I don't know how accurate it is compared to the tons of Android smartphones sharing their location to Google, but in areas with many Tesla it is good enough.

I watched the movie "don't look up" about the end of the world from a celestial object and it shocked me because of the parallel with the climate crisis. I've the same feeling as some of you, it's too late to avoid major disasters. And it's freaking me out
I remember reading somewhere from someone on the google maps team that the most difficult challenge in maintaining google maps is keeping up to date and accurate information about the millions of small businesses in their map. Being able to trust the information about restaurants and businesses is why I use google maps.
I think the clue is in lazy people. I mean lazy in the sense of, "if you want to solve a problem give it to someone lazy". Python offers a huge ecosystem of useful code that mostly works and just does stuff.

If you're learning to code to get something done, the distance between "Hello World" and something useful is so, so short.
You can make positive assertions though. E.g. attack might have been simple in which case it's possible to produce indicators that cover 100% of variants. Or it could have been complex and indicators either don't cover every possible attack or they produce large number of false positives.

Another thing to mention would be how long in the past you were able to look. E.g. in this case they have found out that the bug was introduced in 2021, were they able to inspect logs covering all of that period or did they only had limited logs/other evidence so it's impossible to know whether anyone used this opportunity or not?

That's a "did you just tell me to go fuck myself?" solution. It didn't work for AMD and it won't work for anyone else. Developing a CUDA-to-GPU compiler and runtime stack is an immense amount of work and customers or "the community" can't afford it.

Although for completeness I'll note that Intel's GPU architecture is documented: https://01.org/linuxgraphics/documentation/hardware-specific...
That sounds very similar to the electromagnetic accelerator by Hyperspace Pirate [1]. The difference is that it uses magnets to accelerate the balls instead of mechanical oscillations. And there is no stream in a strict sense.

> You can show a person a couple pictures of a dog, and they can construct a 3-D mental model of a dog, and what it looks like from all angles and in all poses. Yet you have to give thousands of examples to do the same thing for a ML/DL system.

By the time a human brain can do this, aren't they also exposed to thousands of examples? How do we learn to speak for example? It's a long painful process of trial and error. How is this significantly different from a supervised learning algorithm? Teaching a child to catch is very similar. At first, they can't recognize the trajectories of thrown objects very well and they aren't coordinated enough to move their hands to where the projectile is. After time and many repetitions, they get to the point where they can catch a ball without consciously following the ball or can even catch without looking based on initial trajectory.
But couldn't it effect the observable behaviour of the time it takes to execute?

My city used to hold at least two big, good, dev conferences a year. Neither did anything this year, even remotely. I'm not sure how new folks are supposed to get started in this environment. Very difficult. But I would add that networking correctly at a good university, by building connections with young, industry-connected instructors, was how I got my start. Ironically they were impressed by my attendance at these conferences.
I setup coder self-hosted on a hetzner server, and it was great (and cheap). pair that with a vpn and pihole (same server), and you have a great home-base machine to do all your heavy lifting on.

It was especially cool connecting my ipad and having the ability to work (although somewhat impractical without a separate keyboard).
Right. But that means, in my eyes, that Signal's official builds are _exactly as untrustworthy_ as Signal's server is; if I couldn't trust Signal if they said they didn't log non-E2EE messages, I don't see why I can trust Signal when they say they don't have a way to retrieve plaintext messages from their client build. If we're talking about liability if claims are false, I should be fine using any chat platform which claims to not log messages, right?

The RoTT thing isn't that relevant IMO; if we're under an RoTT-style attack, everything is off. But crucially, that's a different threat model; I can trust my compiler independently from Signal. I don't feel like I can trust Signal's client independently from Signal's server; either Signal as a whole is trustworthy, or they're not.

Now I agree that if we had some kind of verifiable or reproducible builds, E2EE would make sense. If anyone could download Signal's source code, build it, and verify that the binary is identical, we would have the "normal" FOSS defenses, where we could assume that some security researcher would do that now and then.

Justice is an ideal, Law is the compromise taking justice into account. Oftentimes justice may be blocked for the exact reason the parent comment outlies; you have good intentions but the long term ramifications are abused to bring anti-justice.

e.g. this is party why the death penalty is so unevenly implemented. Not because some or most people genuinely feel no crime is worth killing a criminal over. But because there are many issues over an irreversible sentence like death when the evidence isn't 100% ironclad.
Of course it is C++, that is what IO and Driver Kits use.

App developers use the Objective-C and Swift userspace libraries.

The newly released header only library for Metal in C++, is a poor man's binding, that wraps the C API of the Objective-C runtime, without the Metal frameworks written in a mix of Swift and Objective-C.
> The problem with your strategy is that it requires you to be aware of your own mistakes. That doesn't sound like a robust strategy, unless you're investing huge resources into sophisticated tooling and have drastically restricted the expressivity of your programming environment. That exists and is fine, and I even addressed that in the blog post too.

Those "huge resources" and "sophisticated tooling" could just mean something like Erlang, where fault isolation is a core design principle.

But fault isolation works in simpler systems, too. Here's a recent example: I wrote a function that automatically generates a table of contents for an HTML document. While extensively testing it, I ran across a number of edge cases that would lead to faults (mostly due to messy underlying libraries, but also due to programmer error). I fixed all that I found, but I still didn't feel comfortable not adding a generic exception handler to the function.

In case that an exception is ever thrown in that code, the function will just return the input HTML unchanged (and log an error, of course). That's graceful degradation, and a good example of recovering from a potentially unknown fault.

Similar situations can often be found in many applications. Not all functions are essential, and we're not always 100% confident about all parts of the code working correctly.

(Note that I'm not talking about Rust here, I lack sufficient knowledge about it. It's possible that this strategy wouldn't work in Rust for reasons of memory-safety or anything else.)
Google has a lot of POI data, but it's not necessarily good data. What POI data do you find missing in Apple maps? Most of the recent issues with retail establishments changing hours has also affected Google Maps in my experience.
Or YouTube? The homepage and literally every video are full of recommendations.
Just put out an update on the database to correct the missing icons. As channels change icons the old links go dead. Should be back to near 100% icon coverage now.

As far as "elements out of focus and missing some borders" goes, I think this may be referring to the choice to have channel descriptions pop-up on hover in the lists rather than cluttering the screen with text. It may be something else, we do use a gray background underneath the page headline (with the channel title, subscriber count, large red "View on YouTube" button, and channel icon), for example.

Of course, we'd love to hear more feedback on the page design choices.
In which case, the second paragraph applies.
Thanks for the comment -- the regulations in Europe for this vary from country to country. So for the mobile piece of this (the pro/core plans), we limit signups to countries where such requirements don't exist. However, roaming after subscription is allowed.

PGPP Relay service, on the other hand, is available for use anywhere.

Also, we only provide eSIM based mobile data service, so we aren't technically an MVNO.
I am 100% in on OSMand and the whole ecosystem, but I still curse out loud every time I have to enter a street address into its address "parser". I know it's a hard problem, but it's horrible. None of the app's other shortcomings are meaningful to me.

The CDI specification is what takes Java from "good" to "incredible". The dependency injection pattern makes Java a hybrid functional language, where all the state can be stored in the CDI container. This eliminates a whole class of bugs and simplifies a codebase allowing for pervasive use of composition.

Stuff like Microprofile, Quarkus, ActiveMq, Tomcat, and even JakartaEE are gravy on the cake.

AMD CPUs with iGPUs are a very different product from their CPUs without, regardless of what the nomenclature might imply.
What I tend to recommend folk do in the synth-diy community is to find existing designs like Yves Usson's yusynth stuff, and make a "cover version" of it. Draw the circuit diagram, and from that draw the PCB, trying to keep them as close as possible to the originals.

That way you're climbing the "using the tools" learning curve separately from the "laying out designs" learning curve, which makes it all a lot easier.

If I had invested 2 million in the day Biden was elected 11/20/2022 in Chevron Stock:

November 9, 2020 $79.40 per share. Today the stock is trading at $155 per share.

So if I bought those 25,316 shares for two million the day Biden was elected. And sold today I for $155 per share. I would net $1,924,050 million $!

It looks like the president is failing at his mission to destruct the oil and gas industry.
I was a googler working on Google maps at the time of the API self immolation.

There were strong complaints from within about the price changes. Obviously everyone couldn't believe what was being planned, and there were countless spreadsheets and reports and SQL queries showing how this was going to shit all over a lot of customers that we'd be guaranteed to lose to a competitor.

Management didn't give a shit.

I don't know what the rationale was apart from some vague claim about "charging for value". A lot of users of the API apparently were basically under the free limits or only spending less than 100 USD on API usage so I can kind of understand the line of thought, but I still.thibk they went way too far.

I don't know what happened to the architects of the plan. I presume promo.

Edit: I should add that this was not a knee-jerk thing or some exec just woke up one day with an idea in their dreams. It was a planned change that took many months to plan and prepare for with endless preparations and reporting and so on.

I've looked at Kivy in the past, but it didn't seem mature enough to rely on, especially for deploying to iOS/iPadOS. I just spent a couple of hours going through their documentation, building their example "Pong" app, and deploying it to macOS, iPadOS, and Android. All went off without a hitch, though I didn't mess with signing or trying to release them to the various app stores.

I'm going to say Kivy is more than capable of the things I'd want it to do. Looks like the roguelike I've had in my head may make it onto the screen in the near future!
Indeed. Darwinism is about evolution, and does not touch on Origin of Life - only what happened once Life had already been sparked into existence. A lot of people have mixed the two up, especially religiously because of failing to recognize that difference.

The reason phylogenetic trees can be so thorough is because evolution is real.
