I have heard about only a handful of Finnish artists and entrepreneurs. Nothing remarkable stands out there compared to other countries without UBI or a generous safety net, as is the context of this whole thread ("UBI would benefit artists").

Have you got any data about how Finland stands out in artistic output vs other countries? Or just random anecdotes which can be found even in countries without any welfare.
You called alcohol a "vice". Definition of vice from Merriam-Webster is "moral depravity or corruption; wickedness; a moral fault or failing." You are specifically asserting that people who drink alcohol are bad people. How is that not being preachy?

Webdev is about the only scenario, in which it would be ok; funny how you mentioned exactly this one.

However, for webdev, native linux would be fine as well.
Why wouldn't you simply have the singleton report roll-up to the next level? Something has to be incredibly wrong with the organization for this kind of stuff to happen, surely?
> A neat anecdote to summarise this, there's a company making 19 seater jets that are electric.

The ES-19 is propeller-driven, not a jet. Its no-reserve range is projected to be 250 miles. That may make for a suitable island-hopper, but is neither a jet nor a jet-substitute.
if they can easily care for 10, why would you assume they need easier plants?

their point was they love them to death. in my house, i prefer to keep fish because they do well with lots of attention. i don't keep the plants because i would over-water (over-love) and then kill them :( this is all half-joke, half-serious.
The WebSub spec recommends this approach, and I've implemented it, and I really would recommend against doing this.

It adds a tremendous amount of complexity to all of your services, where now all of your services will need to maintain the ability to answer the question 'what was your state at this point in time.'

It makes it extremely difficult to support new webhooks, and honestly in my experience nobody actually ever queries for the historical data anyway. My opinion is that webhooks just aren't the correct approach to take for anything absolutely critical. They're a great addition for stuff outside the critical path where delivery is not essential, and as long as you stick to that paradigm you can dodge these issues entirely.

Re 'thin webhooks' which require hydration:

- subject to either complexity to support historical state (e.g. what was the state at the point in time when the webhook was issued) or race conditions (two things happened, but your API only gets current state)

- honestly none of your consumers want this - they're gonna be like 'why do i have to also query an API why can't you just hydrate the payload in the webhook body'. Guaranteed.

- still probably the correct solution if the data is super private and you want to be extremely cautious about issuing webhooks for it

source: worked exclusively on webhooks and similar eventing stuffs at place you've heard of for a few years
> From my limited perspective if I can save 15 minutes a month with copilot, the tool has paid for itself.

The issue that I've seen is that while it may shave off 15 minutes of writing code in a month, it also adds another 30 minutes of debugging code that you didn't pay attention to when using it to write the code.

For an experienced programmer, even one unfamiliar with the language I believe that its time costs will be more than writing the code themselves after anything beyond the first pass is taken into consideration.

For the inexperienced programmer, this can significantly hinder the progress of learning how to program well and while it may save 15 minutes a month, if it delays onboarding or software development skill accusation by a month or two then it is by far a net negative.

Yes, it can write boilerplate code quickly - but I've found that using the IDE that I do (Jetbrains family) between live code templates and macros and current language structures, I haven't needed to write boilerplate code in a while.

Additionally, what boilerplate-ish code I have written, tends to be only on the first pass through the code. The updating and maintaining and bug fixes for an existing code base, I haven't seen Copilot or other tools able to integrate into an a large project correctly.

If you're doing rapid prototyping... maybe it would be more useful, but writing new code all the time is a small fraction of what most developers do.

Push is a bad design. The client should manage the resources on the client not the server.

Stuff like resource media queries for instance. How the server can know if user wants dark mode or light mode CSS file?
Some of these issues can also be clouded by the accomodations that are put in place for them being perceived as incentives. The impact of a diagnosis on school and university examinations, for instance (eg. 25% extra time), is widely recognized as being significant, and they are highly sought-after as a result, with some people being more adept at securing a diagnosis for their child than others.
Yeah, I use it to control my stream, it works very well. (I use it with ardour on linux)
It’s merely a corporate story (from both sides) that people made informed choice about that. It’s full of BS everywhere.

Apple fighting for privacy is BS (look at China). Ads networks not affecting privacy is BS. Reducing effectiveness of ads not affecting small business is BS. Moving monopoly in ads market from one group of companies to others being good for people is BS. People understanding impact of all of that on their privacy, small businesses, cost of digital apps, etc is BS.

Both sides spend many millions of dollars to try to swing public and regulatory view of the problem.
I have 2 computers with AMD, sleep glitches on both.

On desktop, sometimes there's no video signal after wake up.

The laptop doesn't support sleep at all, it's either connected standby = not sleeping, or hybernate. Windows says none of the proper S1-S3 states are supported by the computer.
We don’t know what was on the drive, since it was wiped. We just know the agent says they had it wiped.

Creating a situation where bribing a law enforcement officer to claim to have destroyed evidence gets you out of a criminal charge automatically seems like a pretty problematic idea.

So now you potentially go to trial with that evidence.
You fill the drive with random data. No optimization can refuse to store data that can't be deduped. There's still the likely possibility that extra capacity on the SSD is untouched but you can at least get the bulk of it.
The Connection Machine by Daniel Hillis

https://archive.org/details/connectionmachin00hill

Describes the motivations for and design of a massively parallel computer with many (millions? 64k?) of very simple processing nodes that serve as both memory and CPU. Shows how you can have "active data structures" where each item of data is in a different CPU (or clusters of nearby CPUs) and literally migrates between CPUs as computation proceeds. I think it gives an example of the parallel bitonic sort algorithm being executed in this way. A relatively thin book and relatively easy to read for a programmer.

You can also read Hillis's thesis:

I have a Novation LaunchKey Mini mk3. I like the size and the Ableton integration with the pads, but the keybed is just atrocious and I essentially never use it. Feels like spongy bendy plastic sticks (which is what it is).

I had an Arturia MiniLab mk2 for a while and like the feel much more. (I ended up returning it because it didn't integrate with Reason well, which is what I was using at the time.)

I also have a Novation LaunchPad Mini mk3 which I quite like for triggering clips and automation. I haven't tried using it for actual note playing.

I've been interested in the XKey. Does it feel like playing an actual synth-action piano keyboard, or is it more like a piano-shaped Mac keyboard?

Well, to be fair, that's partly because the trick is to not become overweight in the first place.

Well, part of it is because people describe it as "shilling," so they would rather avoid bad interactions or the perception of being pushy or sales-y.
There has been a number of solid responses but my two cents.

It isnt about the "form factor" - but the cost. Businesses buy rackmount servers because it is space-efficient.

Eventually they sell these off very cheap and unlike your desktop grade equipment business servers are built to last. while that 5 year old business server may be out of date for them, they still have plenty of life left and can be had for dirt cheap.

i have a multimedia server in my basement with 72GB ram and dual Xeon's which i picked up for around the cost of a decent desktop motherboard.

So in short. Rackmount equipment purchased brand new is very expensive, but buying old "end-of-life" gear is very cheap. The depreciation on computer equipment would put a car to shame.
You care because most often it is your problem still. For example, when you know with facts that a given technology is less error prone than another. But the other party still picks the worse one. When a year down the line shit hit the fan, it usually ends up back on you. Because you are the only one with enough knowledge and expertise to even understand the mess they put themselves in.
It's exculpatory evidence. I.e. if the Court was made aware of it, it would have undone their case.

This is exactly why adverse inference is a thing, and needs to be enforced to the hilt to exonerate, because otherwise, it doesn't disincent the State from doing the same thing in the future where they trade one of their own to really make a case stick.

The Court must symmetrically apply it's measures in disincenting pathologic behavior.

If we are only free from "draconian" action when it's convenient for the elites then we are not really ever free from "draconian" action. The first thing china did was lockdowns and masks, we did exactly what the authoritarians did, we just didn't travel down that road quite as far.
Apple started moving in this direction in 2020 with the introduction of App-Bound Domains[0]. These are currently opt in but I have always expected that, just like with the HTTPs adoption, they'll start enforcing this more strictly. With App Bound domains an app specifies ahead of time which domains are app bound and should allow injecting Javascript etc.

I expect app-bound domains to become required for all apps in iOS 16 or possibly iOS 17. There will probably a be a limit and some review on which domains an app specify as app-bound. Web browser that use WKWebView already have a special entitlement that excludes them from this.

For me, the big surprise is the Republican party turning on the FBI. They have been the party of law an order for my whole life. Even recently, the back-the-blue rhetoric was mostly coming from the right and most of the right seemed to support law enforcement and the court system. I've always thought this way of thinking was fundamental to that party, but I guess not.

Love my Seaboard Block. Fits the size. Doesn't look to shabby next to Apple stuff. It's not your typical sample-trigger keyboard, but pair it with an mpe-Synth like Equator2, learn to play it expressively, and you get some amazing results.
I suppose when viewed charitably you could say that healthy at any size had a good origin.

However, the quantifier any is the problem with the entire campaign. It's patently obvious having a BMI > 30 or < 18 is dangerous to your health. Both of these are included at "any" size. The number of grotesquely obese models being shown by fashion companies is having a similar effect that sickly skinny models had. People get the idea that this is normal and ok. Neither is ok, but the literature has shown being a little too thin (not supermodel thin, but marginally underweight) carries less risk than being marginally overweight. Neither are great, but one is measurably worse.
Yikes. Sounds like you at least leaned a whole lot!
Ironically that's kinda similar what Google FLoC was supposed to be.

These are not separate facts. FB and Google have a global surveillance network to track people which is 1) awful for privacy and 2) makes it easier to serve niche ads to people. Apple is prioritizing user-privacy which necessarily means it is more difficult for advertisers to place their niche ads.

You can frame it as "crush small companies" if you want. But that framing is just as valid as "Apple's narrative".

Third-party cookies should have never been a thing. Google shouldn't get kudos for barely rolling back this privacy nightmare they created while Apple gets punished for being more pro-privacy and pro-user.

2) Save this list somewhere, where server can read it, keyed by URL;

3) When user requests same URL, push resources from the list.

Rather than build a new compiler, I wonder if this might be easier to integrate as a static checker. IMO clang static checks are not that difficult to write. The hardest thing can be the query to find the interesting elements. But you're banning/requiring fairly high-level language elements so they should be pretty easy queries to write.

For that specific one, there was one study resembling that result, but it wasn't on teens and it wasn't looking at gender dysphoria. Which makes every part of the statement wrong. It's a harmful claim, and with enough similar untruths in an essay directed at the world the best case scenario is that she trusted and parroted a bunch of bigots without looking into the details, and that she's lying about having done significant research.
It makes life a LOT more difficult for the company. Even setting aside the administrative hassle, imagine how this works in practice.

I think a good corollary here are the intellisense functions of an IDE (e.g., JetBrains, NetBeans, etc.):

With an IDE, I know that when it auto-generates class methods/properties or auto-completes a method chain (i.e., boilerplate), it will pop out the same thing every time. With something like CoPilot, it's a mystery bag whose result changes based on what you put into it. I am all for saving time, but we can't pretend these are the same thing.

I won't try to speak for GP, but if they're anything like me, the goal is to make the things _I know I want to write_ faster (not bring in random code and hope it works). CoPilot seems like a faster Stack Overflow, but people seem to be treating it like intellisense.
I think it's a great experiment, keep doing what you're doing. Removing the footguns from C++ without wildly changing the syntax up is a solid idea.
What's the benefit of going from 100Gb/s to 800Gb/s through kernel/hardware optimizations as opposed to adding more machines to meet the same throughput in this case? I'd be curious at what point returns on the engineering effort is diminishing in this problem.

The crash in the article was catalyzed by Autopilot rapidly decelerating in the fast lane because the system wanted to slow down due to the shadow of the bridge. The car tailgating behind obviously didn’t help. Their fault, but the author of this article completely missed things obvious to most Tesla drivers, apart from the data for the lawsuit.

On top of that, the Model 3/Y doesn’t show brake lights when using its strong regenerative brakes, which is completely unsafe. This scenario is a common problem with Autopilot and why I often don’t trust it in the left lane, despite it being a great product. Regardless of how unsafe the driver behind them was going, Tesla’s system often makes trivial mistakes.

Aside from these issues, in some states, the left lane on most interstate highways is a mix of elder statesmen who drive 55mph and modern folk who drive 75-85mph. This driving culture clash leads to serious accidents, and our laws don’t reflect what is safe. I’ve never seen a driver ticketed for driving dangerously slow in the left lane when it’s posted.
