I would argue this means the users of the higher level language need to learn the language their tooling is written in, or consider switching to the underlying compiled language altogether where possible.

My entire career has been with scripting languages, but I think the pendulum is swinging again and they are back on notice.

Anything that isn't strictly a scripting need is orders of magnitude more ergonomic to do in a compiled language than it was a decade ago. Why fight it?

I'm still watching the developments of WASM closely, because while JS does the trick and always will, if you can build an app in a language that produces an equal or better result in WASM, why wouldn't you consider it from an engineering point of view? Then there would no longer be a language split.

There's a lot of "ifs" here for sure, but the possibility exists that the languages we currently use are not the best for the task. I think when we see projects like this, it's a good opportunity to reflect.

I once saw a blind man step out of a bus shelter onto a pavement. A cyclist who was riding on the pavement immediately hit them and knocked them to the floor. The cyclist did not stop, they just shouted 'Sorry' and carried on cycling up the pavement. If cyclists wish to have a good reputation amongst the general public then as a group they need to realise there are some really bad apples spoiling the bunch, and work with everyone else to call them out. I have never ever seen a cyclist call out another cyclist for poor etiquette, and I wish it happened more.
I recently tried this on my setup, two Roku clients and a plex server. Despite my best efforts I could not get subtitles to work unless I had an account signed in with the preferred subtitle options configured for the account.

About locks - nobody ever picks locks, only brute force is used.

If the lock is a cable lock, it's worthless. If the lock is solid metal over 5mm, it can only be cut by angle grinder. Once you are in angle grinder territory, whether it's 5mm or 15mm doesn't seem to matter. So i think there is no point spending over $100 on a lock.

Additionaly, you can use a hydrawlick jack to break d-locks, but that doesnt work on chains and is very dependant on how exactly you locked up

FWIW, I live in one of the least right-wing cities in the US (Baltimore), and cyclists here report that aggressive driving towards them is common.

A few have reported that pedestrian aggression towards them is common, too.
I think each AI generated image should have a steganographic signature with data on the system generating it.
It is not just the mass, the design is critical as well. Check pedestrian impact tests, on regular cars pedestrians can roll over while with tall cars or SUVs they are simply splashed against it.

I haven't seen the QMK firmware, but there are multiple ways to accomplish it. Here are a few that I can think of:

A popular technique is to use tapping term, which is where tapping one of those buttons two, three, four, etc. times in quick succession will trigger something different like a dash or slash.

Some keymaps are configured to send regular characters when buttons are quickly pressed and activate "layers" when buttons are pressed and held. A layer would contain the dashes and slashes. Another layer would have numbers. Other layers for modifiers like F1, F2, F3, etc.

Alternatively, one-shot layers are a type of layer activation where one tap activates a layer and the next tap activates the desired dash/slash/etc. character. I would prefer this method for this type of device because it likely requires less taps than the tapping term method and doesn't require fingers to hold down buttons like the previous one mentioned. It also pairs well with one-shot mods, which is the same concept, but for shift, control, alt, the windows key, etc.
Of the three cases in which defendants were charged with battery assault because they did administer CPR, only one was convicted. And that was because "the patient already had a signed 'Do Not Resuscitate' order and received CPR anyway in their nursing home,"

But most states fully protect bystanders who sincerely try to help, Murphy stressed. Some states even have "Duty to Act" laws that establish fines specifically for bystanders who are medically trained to provide CPR but choose not to help when an emergency unfolds. (Minnesota, Rhode Island and Vermont are three such examples.)

To be fair, I think it's both. If the "sausage making" is grotesque, even an exceptional marketer would struggle :)

A coder who understands what public signals are valuable can give a marketer something to work with. That might include "code quality" but it's probably more than that. Visible activity, responsive processes, valuable features, etc. Just guessing, though.

> As a long-time Unity user increasingly interested in alternatives, I find the choice of a non-standard language to be very offputting, moreso than the thought of returning to the pain of C++ to work with UE.

As a professional developer, yes, I love seeing popular languages I know. When you build a product that includes a programming language, you find out maintaining and expanding the language is a herculean effort, and so I can understand from just the financial perspective why Unity switched to C#.

As a Dad, what the OP was saying is right - Godot's language, while non-standard is much more approachable for a child than C++ (or most other popular general purpose languages).

A few years ago my wife had her registered bicycle stolen after I screwed up and left the garage open. We reported it stolen and only took 3 days for it to make its way back to us. It made its way back to us because the cops stopped someone for looking like they too nice of a bike, so that's a whole other problem, but registration works.
I don't buy that at all. That is an awesome program that I did not know about. However, they also support Gemini PDA, which is only one of Planet computers devices. And Pixels are well-known to be the among easiest to flash devices out there, and there is no shortage of third party ROMs available for them. From what I read on the SF forums, it's a sort of google boycott despite the fact that flashing a rom gets rid of the google in a pixel.

Further, look at the list of devices they work on - not at all a list of phones easier to flash than a pixel.

It's not exactly a success (except from the most selfish and financial perspectives), it's more like proof you can abuse your users and get away with it.
They changed their core purpose and the algo that supports it from being a tool to stay in touch with friends and family to a delivery system for ads and paid content.
It's something like a /48 for each second m^2 of Earth's land surface. Single addresses are not a useful metric, as IPv6 works a lot more with prefixes (groups of addresses, to simplify management and allow things like auto-configuration). The smallest prefix that you would assign to a VLAN with auto-configuration is /64. So /48 (or 65 536 subnets) in IPv6 would be the equivalent of /16 (like 192.168.X.X but global unicast) in IPv4. That is what normal businesses usually get. Home customers should get a /56 of IPv6, that still leaves space for 256 subnets with basically unlimited hosts in them. Not too bad I think.
>Don't expect it to pay rent for the first 7 years, after 7 years, expect to pay 1-2 months of rent.

This. Work on several projects simultaneously. Success often doesn't come once you deploy, it's a gradual buildup over the years. Ten extra users this month, 12 extra users next month. It's a snowball.

If you ship and sunset your project after 3 months because you didn't get 100,000 signups, you are stopping too early IMO. Instead, automate everything, try to run at zero cost and leave it alone for a year or even better 3 years and go work on something else or get a full time job.

I had a project make $100 for the first 2 years and $30000 in year number 3 without making any substantial changes.

> A sufficiently high base rate would lead to this situation even if the vaccine was 99.9% effective.
In principle for these factors alone statistically yes, in reality we know this isn't the case. Calling it a vaccine is calling it broken. Calling it a preventative treatment to improve your outcome is more accurate.

The studies showing reduced admissions are either grasping at statistical straws or a reglorofied statement of "This is a novel contagion in a herd without immunity at which some unknown percentage may be clinically at risk from genetic or environmental factors."

The strongest environmental factors we now _know_ (and had clear statistical evidence for as of July2020!) was vitaminD and a few other well defined risk factors.

Hospitalisation in the UK due to exclusively COVID factors reduced dramatically as the pandemic went on due to less strong concern once almost every a&e had seen the full disease cycle from admission to treatments to outcome. Not to mention most COVID cases at hospital in the UK were either contracted there in the younger age groups or they tested positive but this wasn't the concern at the time of admission.

One of the major concerns in May2020 was that "up to 30% of the working population may be off it at one time if the virus spreads according to China's numbers and the economic cost of that is too high..." In hindsight this statement didn't compare to the damage of being frozen by indecision combined with no global trade for 2 years, so...
As for guessing how many would end up in hospital report 9 models said the peak would be over 2million needing a&e at the same time, despite the model not combining medical risk with any mortality factors, this was simply 10% or so of total cases if 20M or so we're ill at the same time.

Again, as a preventative treatment for clinically at risk people (who we did a great job of identifying based on medical history in 2020) we should have never had a 2nd global lockdown, unfortunately the particular group all vote a certain way so...

> If you think Google, amzn, msft or whatnot exist in a competitive marketplace like restaurants and refrigerators.... it's just foolish.

It may not be competitive, but they are also pretty easy to walk away from. I've never been a customer of Google's, and haven't purchased anything from Amazon or Microsoft in many years. What do you really need from them? Not like what would be nice to have, but what do you really need? If you are buying from them it is because you like what they have to offer and are voting for it to continue.

I have no doubt indirectly purchased things from all of those companies and I'm okay with my vote landing that way because the product offered was exactly what I wanted. If it wasn't what I wanted, why would I buy it? That would be silly. I could easily exert pressure on the vendors I do buy from to stop buying from the above if there was a problem. They don't offer anything I truly need either.

That, of course, doesn't mean I'll win if I change my vote. If the problem is only in my mind, nobody else is going to care and the vote will land in their favour, not mine. Voting isn't about an individual. That is where it seems you are confused.

> It was something Google did to it's vendors

The changes Google had to make ultimately impacted its vendors, just as any business changing their ways no doubt impacts its vendors. My transition to non-GMO soybeans in response to consumer demand meant I was no longer buying the equivalent seed from GMO seed vendors. However, the situation all started because Google's product was no longer pleasing to the customers, which prompted the customers to stop being Google's customers until they changed their ways.

> In any case, there is no "vote."

Indeed, there is a vote. You can vote yes (spend your dollar) or you can vote no (do not spend your dollar). The entire public, even children, are eligible participants in the election... Unless they've been voted out, in which case they need to change their ways to be voted back in.

That doesn't mean your choice will win, of course. Voting is not about the individual.

No, it's not doable with donations.

I mean, there might be a couple people who do that? I don't know of any. (And it's been tried.)

In general, companies don't donate - they need a concrete benefit they can show to the tax agency. Eg, they will pay to contract you to add features.

So you're left with individual contributions, who have less money than companies. And the overhead of dealing with payments.

Daniel Stenberg, of curl fame, confirms that it's hard to make money off of donations, starting at https://youtu.be/jVT37EmND8I?t=1688 .

We can look to curl as an example. https://opencollective.com/curl#category-BUDGET say they've had $200K in contributions, which after fees is $178,598.94 raised.

Over a period of 3 or so years.

After decades of development, and as one of the most widely distributed software packages in existence.

Find a customer willing to pay you to work on it.

Figure out the market size, and what they are willing to pay.

Figure out at what point you're willing to give up dream, in case your plan (and pivot(s)) don't work out.

But do not, not, NOT, depend on donations to meet your financial goals.

Ugh, I feel like this is being a regular thing I need to look at with Plex...

Has anyone tried any alternatives that have a decent Apple TV client?

I have tried looking a couple times over the last couple years and that is always my blocking point.

Ideally not a third party one, I know Jellyfin has a third party option but it always seems to have issues on my library and needs to update its cache (or something) and my experience with it was not great. Kodi seems like it might have one, but it isn't available through the App Store.

Bonus if it can somehow import my watch history (but not required, that is a minor issue).

As much as I hate Plex and all of the unnecessary features they keep adding, they seem to be the only one with a decent client.
(Note: US-centric)

Please read the latest copy of your employment agreement before doing this. In the US, it is not uncommon for employers to claim everything you do, on or off the clock. Some places restrict this to "related" work, others do not.[1]

Some employers will say they would never claim your work, but it's what's written down that matters. If they won't, ask them to sign an agreement. I've had broad swathes of my personal projects excluded from my employment agreement just by asking.

[1] I had an employer who claimed everything. Their view was they paid for your existence, so they got everything you did, regardless of whether it related to the firm's business. I was tempted to ask if they claimed people's children, but quit instead.

I was really excited to share this with my creative (& art) director(s) until I saw the pricing. It could be that I'm just too frugal, so I sent the link onward anyway. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure we'd be more than happy to pay for this. It's just that my first, personal reaction is that the monthly pricing model either feels too steep or is an awkward fit.

Why not pay per access or usage for each template with a slight markup against competitors for ease of use? The tool seems great but the current positioning made me want to immediately compare it to Adobe CC or even Figma. Granted, I haven't really given it a proper workout, but Adobe CC (pick your poison) and Figma both have more features. Figma is even cheaper. CC is also entrenched in everyone's budget, is only marginally more expensive, and has well established marketplaces for similar templates.

I think you’re right - foods like this seem like they should be once per year indulgences rather than weekly or biweekly.

And yes, it is an odd discrepancy but smoked and grilled foods are combined in a few of the studies I came across. I suppose they both contain the same carcinogens, and the goal was only to measure those carcinogens and not so much to evaluate specific foods.
"AI artist" doesn't add any of its "own flair". It builds exclusively on past experience and work of humans. And it also directly completes with them without any thought of credit or compensation.

People are really underplaying how damaging this is going to be for the industry. It's going to completely decimate it. You can already see people using names of artists in the DALL-E prompt to get "their" work for few dollars avoiding any copyright or social issues.

Artists will suddenly be competing with AI on price and time - why we should pay you living wage when we instantly generate something close enough.
