What you describe as the "end of the line totally passive consumption of endorphins" we already have. It comes in various forms of drugs and you can pick the type of world blotting experience you desire.
A lot of these comments could read very differently depending on the age and living situation of the commenter. I'm a college student who likes to travel and usually doesn't have access to a personal vehicle (or I'm in cities where using a car is more annoying than not). I could probably keep up a perfectly fulfilling social life only using my laptop and its chat services, although I would definitely find it annoying. If I was forced to live without a smartphone, I'd be much more worried about the non-social things, mostly to do with transportation. I use my phone to pay public transit fare, unlock e-bikes or e-scooters, request rideshare services, display airline boarding passes, generally find my way in unfamiliar places, and so on. If I spent 99% of my time in the same city and mostly drove a personal car around, I wouldn't need those things as much.

I’m curious if you’re just misremembering or if there’s some particular reason you say that.
I would say society doesn't paint a happy picture of the future. It's hard to find positive stories of things working out well where we win against climate change, and we stop shootings in school etc. I also feel it's very hard to have real connection in a lot of modern culture, with phones and internet and tech sometimes just talking to your neighbor seems strange. I think society itself doesn't really really feel that healthy so I can imagine a lot of teenagers with mood swings and anxiety/ depression and facing sad news feel like they don't have much to look forward to. Especially if they can't be as perfect as their peers can come across. It was way easier to not compare your life pre-internet. Also health is generally lower, and that will affect your mood too.

I think that word replacement, in a court of law, might be harder to do than you think because caste is not officially recognized by American law. I'm not sure how you could prove equivalence without a definition to work from.

Hooks feel like a good system that stopped right before it became pretty. Like, an componentDidMount event is a now useEffect with no second argument? But a componentWillUnmount event is now a useEffect, with no second argument, that returns a callback?

It's powerful, and it's not that hard to use, but it's cryptic and random.

Why call it useEffect instead of some other more meaningful phrase? I mean, "componentDidMount" tells you exactly what it is. Does "useEffect"?

Why should onload things be a function, but onunload should be a function returned by a function?

Why does useRef give you a thing used for attaching handles to DOM elements so you can refer to them elsewhere, AND it gives you an object whose .current property can be used as a variable that persists without causing a render?

It's like someone complained that there were two many functions in the API, and their names were too long, so they overcorrected in the opposite direction.
There's a reason why, before door dash and seam less and grub hub, pizza dominated food delivery in the United States. And it's the same reason why "delivery pizza" developed as a style of pizza: thicker than 'thin crust' pizzas, cooked at lower temperatures than Neapolitan, a higher ratio of cheese to sauce than those two styles, not as heavy as Chicago deep dish...

That kind of pizza can be put in an insulating cardboard box, and then a warmer, and driven 20-45 minutes to a customer's house and it arrives in a condition that is comparatively palatable. It can also be made rapidly in bulk using conveyor-belt ovens.

Delivery pizza thrived on this model, and still does. Delivery pizza from a local operation (or a national chain) that employs their own drivers is still affordable and decent.

Other kinds of food are delivered disappointingly for a reason. The only styles that come close to pizza in terms of suitability for delivery are bulk noodle dishes and sandwiches (and both of these styles had delivery cultures before the rise of software middlemen).

I use sid/unstable, and like you I use aptitude, partially out of habit. I used to use stable exclusively. About a year ago I decided to try using sid permanently. I only ever had one issue (couldn't login to a gui), but that was resolved during the next update. It feels almost as stable as Debian stable, and I see no reason to try out something like arch or manjaro.

Full disclosure, I'm with ClearBlade. We have worked very hard to make our IoT Core both flexible and open. Our MQTT broker is proven at scale for some very big multi-national companies. Everything is open API to allow developers the flexibility to use what they want. We built our software to be used on-premises, on any cloud, and at the edge. All we require is Linux.

Having spent a few days in downtown seattle that surprises me, I can't think why a delivery driver would choose to use a car over something smaller.
I have always wondered my community (Park City, UT) is spending money to build affordable housing rather then just paying subsidies to make existing housing more affordable. The estimated cost for the last development under consideration was something like $600,000 dollars for one unit, and that was a few years ago. I bought my market-rate condo at under $300,000 a few years before.

There are plenty of lower-cost units available, and subsidizing rent/purchase of these would allow a small benefit to be realized by a large number of qualified people, rather than a huge benefit to a small amount of lucky people who win the lottery that is used to allocate the small number of inits that exist.
A bit too speculative. Even though this can generate images at a rapid pace the creative space does not. Rapidly prototyping is not really that useful when it comes to things in concept design, nor does it fill the niche of making an entire scene. Realistically, it's only practical uses are in doing things most artists are not able to do well, such as defining characteristics of individuals to prop and assert generation which in the current scenario it is quite useless for but it isn't to condemn the entire GAN space it will likely never replace artists. Nor the human centered design.
Recruiter Shows Job-Posting Hack to Increases Interview Chances
That seems odd to me. Modern digital hearing aids have a great many features that are far more costly in terms of processing power than a simple parametric EQ or minimum phase convolution. You should definitely be able to do so with less power consumption than for an analog one.

I can't see how hearing aid manufacturers are implementing Bluetooth, multiple speaker arrays with sound source detection, etc..., but can't make these fairly basic features available.

I would be be surprised if it wasn't simply misconfiguration.
Go on, explain how and where I changed my claim.

While you’re at it, maybe also explain how this has anything to do with the subject at hand?
Generally no - these things are designed for navigation at sea where you can generally go in straight lines between things. I’m not aware of any plotters that let you put in the depth you require and plot a route for you. You’d rely on a depth sounder to tell you that you were getting into danger, but if you’re not expecting any dangers why would you be paying any attention it?
> So, would people stop making art?

An analogy that TFA curiously doesn't touch is the advent of photography. What did it do to painting?

Painting became less and less figurative as photography became more and more accurate. The point of painting was to represent reality; but as photography became so much more accurate, that point became moot.

And so, painting went into a different direction. Represent not reality, but feelings, what the artist feels when looking at reality; something that's out of reach of photography.

AI is trying to conquer this as well. Human art needs to go further. Something weird that AI cannot touch.
I, for one, welcome our new cybernetic lawyer overlords. Who wouldn’t want to make the most reviled profession more arcane and inhumane?
I've been dabbling with text-to-image generation quite a bit lately. I also do graphic design, drafting, and occasionally doodle with a pen or pencil.

I really enjoy generating images, and I really enjoy drawing even though I'm not really good at it. I like to draw with my five-year-old, but I've also exposed him to Dalle-Mini. I think showing him dalle-mini was a mistake, and I'm going to avoid repeating it. (We are a low-media household.)

My concern about AI art has to do with children learning art skills. Will it be hard to encourage developing art skills? If a person can just ask for an image rather than learning how to make one, will they be motivated to do the work to build the skill? Or will it suddenly become a waste of time to the young mind?
> e.g. I'm not sure how they're implemented

It might help to have a simple mental model for them?

Picture there is a global variable called _currentComponent:

_currentComponent: {
previousValue: React.Element
hooks: HookValue[]
currentHook: number
firstRender: boolean
}

Each HookValue is whatever that hook wants. For useState something like:

HookValue = {
hookName: 'useState',
value: [state, setState],
}

Before your component is run, the renderer sets `_currentComponent` to your component with its hooks set to their current values.

If you run `useState(initial)` it looks like this:

function useState(initialValue) {
const component = _currentComponent
let hookValue;
if (firstRender) {
hookValue = {
hookName: 'useState',
value: [initialValue, (newValue) => {
hookValue[0] = newValue
markForUpdate(component); // some React-provided function to mark this as needing an update
}
}
component.hooks[component.currentHook++] = hookValue;
return hookValue.value
} else {
hookValue = component.hooks[component.currentHook++]
assert(hookValue.hookName == 'useState')
return hookValue.value
}

Surely not perfect, but totally useable as a model of what's going on. To be honest I wish React showed pseudocode like this in the tutorials, it makes it a lot easier for me to understand.

In theory you could take some percentage of hydrocarbon production and store it to reach zero.
I ran Archlinux with LTS kernel on my home laptop for 1.5 years and I stopped because of instabilities.
The last issue that I had was the update to pipewire, my bluetooth headset stopped working after suspend. I got fed up of tweaking configuration to make it work.
I could have reverted to pulseaudio.

But to be honest, the only major issue was an issue with pam login. I could not log in anymore after an update, had to search on the internet to find a workaround that consisted in updating a pamd.conf file in single user mode boot.
Many breaking updates were Gnome related...

Switched back to Windows 10 then 11 for a year, tried WSL2 and found it unstable (some random crashes and tmux freezes), and slow sometimes.

Now on Fedora for a few months since I am a Gnome user, I am surprised there are quite frequent kernel updates also. I am little bit less worried that an update will break something, but i'll slowly move away from the bleeding edge.
Maybe fly up Lake Erie and Ontario, then cut across New York, New Hampshire, and Vermont? You still end up over land for that last part, and you're going to rattle windows in Niagara, but it probably cuts half an hour off of the trip or so, maybe a little more.

It's all part of their plan to be carbon-neutral.

If they just implemented their technology as designed, they would be carbon-negative. So they have to cause more carbon to be released, in order to get to break-even.

They are crowd-sourcing increasing their carbon footprint via the power requirements to load their website.
This is a weird way of twisting their words. They didn't "find" the phrase themselves, as in coming up with the words, rather they found that in their experience, some programmers behave according to said phrase. You are parsing the word "find" in the incorrect way in this situation.

The latest research suggests Linear A and Linear B is the same script, but used for different languages analogous to how the Latin script is both used for say English and Polish, but with language specific adjustments.
-R is a reverse tunnel similar to -L, something very different from -D which is indeed a SOCKS proxy.
The "as long as they could keep most seats filled" was a deal killer though.

There was enough demand for one return flight a day carrying a small proportion of the overall passengers on the immensely-popular with wealthy people JFK-LHR and JFK-CDG routes.

I don't disagree with that but some OS re-installs also correspond with buying an entirely new machine. And I'm the kind of paranoid person which burns instal DVDs and then checks the DVD's checksums from an offline computer before doing an install on my desktop, for example. Now, sure, the rootkit may try to hide in my Git repos (but that's not the easiest trick to pull) or shell scripts (but they're versioned with Git) etc.

I still like it that way: a good old write-once DVD, checksum'ed, and a brand new install. Ideally on new hardware but that's not always the case.

A former co-worker of mine started a CAD/CAM software company in Russia in the late 80s-early 90s. He was targeting soviet x86 & VAX clones. Business was not bad; but the weird postsoviet economy made it untenable.

He told me:

"I was making good money on paper; but still, I had to spend a whole month's paycheck to buy four new tires for my car. They were not even particularly good tires, and it wasn't a very good car!"
-R now supports SOCKS5 too. Except you initiate it from the other side (compared to -D), which is pretty cool and gives the same practical effect.
Side tangent: Pinecone pods seem to cost 15.625% more per hour on AWS compared to GCP.

All the instance types hide away the price differences usually, so this is interesting to see.

Edit: also there is no free tier for Pinecone on AWS :(
The number of people who will pay--or can make their companies pay--$500+/hour for a handful of saved hours on a flight which mostly won't go into incremental productive work is miniscule. Most business travelers aren't international lawyers or consultants flying across the Atlantic for a quick get together. But pay a bit more to fly a bit more comfortably to be more rested/as a perk and maybe even save on a hotel room night? Quite a few people, even if not the typical traveler.
I do.
two laptops, even if I have warnings regarding usage :
if you do like (as I do) having software regarding good hw support, well, I sadly had to exclude nvidia-only-GC-based laptop because it's only vesa (means 100% loading on your CPU instead gpu), or the same regarding wifi.

I do really like openbsd. On my machines, laptops, I do have triboot win/nux/bsd. Nux is LMDE5, debian with cool/glamour/user-ended focused debian distro.
Then openbsd running isotop project, means dwm adapted for end users or devs, for the one whom have low specs of hardware (2013 laptop, still running today), plus xfce on another asus, whom wifi AND amd radeon chips are well supported.
sadly, my main lenovo have only integrated intel graphics (not so sad) but my broadcom is not detected for wifi, I use it only once a week, mainly in places I have no internet. Please be careful regarding filesystems, openbsd is a very specific area, ext4 is just nobody for that os.

excepted filesystems, wifi/graphical hardware support, plus sometime the lack of "trended"-software ports (eg falkon, and others) to the system, in less than four months I adopted it ; on my hp, Im using LO to write (or wordgrinder), plus thundie for my mails, and firefox/iridium/midori.

Veracrypt is supported since latest version. And with time passes, lot of new features, even if it's designed for specific or servers systems, makes system greater. In addition, everything is made to make the system tailored to your needs and wishes. I do really like it, including the /home encyphered part.

to finish, I would say trying openbsd is like learning arabic : only the beginning -the installation- is the most "complicated" thing, with everything in command line, including the slices (aka subpartitions) ; then I added it to grub2, then installed isotop or/and xfce and you have a good environment of work.

why openbsd?
because its C coding (best of all)
because its highly secured.
because its a demanding project for his maintainers and teams
because of purety of code
because its one among the rare systems you can use on desktops/laptops (not only thinkpads!) as haiku, whom is not a linux system.

I would add :
why-openbsd (dot) rocks

You build the future you want or you get the future someone else chooses. Keep in mind that most people don’t think about what kind of future they’re building (surely google didn’t intend to create a technical surveillance dystopia, it just happened). We’ll probably get a tech dystopia without anyone intending it.

I suspect ai music will have the uncanny valley/98% done problem for a while. For 1 I suspect the 'DJ' in your example, being an actual DJ or the artist themselves plays a larger part in how people listen to music, especially when it comes to 'pop music' (it may be less so for electronic/classical/jazz/"artistic" music.

Obviously for anything sort of focus-y, house music downtempo etc. If we're not already there, we'll probably be there soon, though I am curious if a careful listener will eventually notice the uncanny valley problem there. But pop music I'd say has two problems. 1. There's a je ne sais quoi quality that's hard to replicate, and two I imagine the corpus is just not that big. I mean sure, there's a decently large corpus of pop music, but good pop music? how many hip hop billboard charts have there been a thousand, maybe a few thousand. How do you combine Beyonce, Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston into a banger that doesn't sound too much like Beyonce', Janet Jackson, Mariah Carey and Whitney Houston without the titular character marketing said music.

This article is not worth the time to read. It is effectively devoid of facts and relies on two interviews to provide some shallow commentary.

However, it is quite an interesting fact that the current democratic administration has just dumped money on this problem and the favorable outcomes seem to lean toward California. Which has overburdened their allotment of water from the Colorado River by over 20% since at least 2012.
The "if done well" is key though.

One specific example, but Pizza delivered by apps is basically garbage. Actual pizza delivery drivers that work for the restaurant have special boxes that control temperature and humidity, enable them to easily carry lots of pizzas and keep them relatively horizonal, etc. Pizza from the app delivery drivers inevitably ends up cold and sad and bunched up to one side the box.

Pizza drivers only need one bag thing, but your food logistics service would definitely to give the drivers a few different sized containers that can keep some things hot, other things cold, be able to be carried a medium-length walk (sometimes you have to park far away), etc. and they definitely don't do that today.

Good article.

What I've found interesting is how many developers think a React "component" (which since hooks is just a function) has some special privileges or abilities that a normal JS function does not. Like, whether it will be selectively executed or what variables are created anew versus reused between subsequent calls. It seems unclear that a React component is just a function, and displays all the behavior expected in a plain old function.

While I agree it was hard to know when React would re-render in the old, class component paradigm, it seems much easier to know when a function will re-render, since it has to re-render whenever the function is called.
