Well it really depends of the stack.

You probably heard of phpMyAdmin. There are many different product depending on which stack you're dealing with.

Personally nowadays I'd just make a copy of production or whichever env has the issue, try replicate locally. For that I mostly use SequelAce.

You can share the SQL queries and the results as CSV to insert in tickets and such. Screenshots are not great indeed. You could export what you want to share to a blank db. If sharing is such an important aspect, look at products such as phpMyAdmin for whichever stack you're using, you can share deep links of the admin which is essentially a search result.
Ah, thanks for reminding that. They've removed a bunch of hook redirection facilities IIRC, and all hell broke loose.

I'm not using Windows as an operating system close to a decade, so I forget (or don't know) things like that.
You know “my platform, my rules” wouldn’t bother me so much if we didn’t go to a freemium model. Freemium is just usually to worst combination of commerce/ads there is. So suddenly I am no longer the client they are serving.
Its not about them identifying potential sources of income, its how they do it.

I have absolutely no problem with a guy in a plane pointing at pools and taking notes and knocking on peoples doors.

What I do have a problem with is unnecessary surveillance of the innocent.
Not so new age... but in IRC, the evalbot in #bash, did use something similar with QEMU:

> Initially, Qemu is booted and its state is saved. On each evaluated command, this state is loaded (giving a usable shell in less than one second), a command is fed on stdin and the output read on stdout.

The social aspect of GitHub is the only reason I'm considering it over GitLab for a new open source project. Reducing discovery seems like it could be harmful - they should really provide readers rough comparative traffic to better justify this..
Pretty sure this is happening already. I started to get some messages on linkedin that include some details from my descriptions, but it feels super unnatural, like a template was filled with some data mined content...
The nearest esso to the bay area is in Canada. You sure esso is found all over the US?

A bit of poking around suggests that esso is ExxonMobil and would therefore be sold in California under the Mobile brand.
You are missing a huge point. MySpace and Friendster didn't got out of fashion suddenly because social is not "sticky". Friendster was heavily burdened with scaling issues, design complexity and bugs that basically force moved users to FB which remained fast, slick and extremely usable. Similarly, MySpace just couldn't engineer features faster that users wanted. The big point here is that social is very hard engineering problem and FB excelled it in early days. They are currently failing, in my opinion, because their newsfeed algorithm shows too much content from groups and much less from friends. The group content is something people will like initially but becomes monotonic later and so they quit.

So, the social platforms have failed historically because of engineering issues that their competitior excelled at.
I guess those things are a compromise. Being able to use that concept easily is a joy. The implementation prioritises developer convenience over syntactic purity. It’s a shame we can’t have both, but I accept the trade-off.
There is simply no such a thing as one size for all but unfortunately USB-C was created for that.

Differences between all those different standards and/or variants are huge and thus doesn't really matter how you name them, it's for sure going to be messy. Making it worse, they keep adding more sh*ts to it.

I used to know all my cables on which can do what. Since USB-C, I seriously became no idea at all, they all look the same, but differences are just like heaven and hell.
Same here, I ditched mac for Framework, tried Windows, nope, fans always on, Ubuntu, battery died when lid closed in < 2 hours and fingerprint scanner didn't work. Fedora, same issue. I sold it and bought an M1 Pro. Nothing wrong with it so far. OK it was 3 times the price, but you get what you pay for.

Yeah, and Meta uses Rust and contributed to a mass atrocity in Myanmar and is facing a $100BN+ lawsuit. Does that mean we should all stop using Rust because Meta is not only using it but also sponsoring the Rust Foundation as well?

I think you know the answer.
But even though payment has not yet been finalized, you HAVE engaged in a contract with this airline. If airlines start cancelling flights maliciously, they'll be in a lot of trouble.

And even if they're not malicious. A bus company in my country got fined (or, denied millions in subsidies) because they didn't meet their target of bus routes / bus lines (they get subsidies to drive routes that don't pay for themselves). They couldn't get enough bus drivers due to the Panny-D and everything else going on.
I've been lucky enough to have gotten on a boutique track early in my tech career; accordingly, I enjoyed my professional well being having often been catered to, and I made a principle out of minding others' well being as well. I always had something to do or someone to help, or at least a ladder to lead me to a somewhat better place than before.

However, all of the glimpses I've had into the tech industry at large more often than not would find endless swaths of powerless serfs, governed by incompetent and indifferent bossmen ganging up to hide their incontinence; and of course, outside of tech this was even worse. I think that quiet quitting is a perfectly rational strategy if that's where you're at.

thanks for pointing it out, I corrected it =)

As a german when I hear about bad privacy my first thought is always of the UK ;)
They call it "AI", but I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if they've just run some basic pattern recognition on their stock of aerial GIS imagery, searching for blueish rectangles on land tagged as residential. It's probably the sort of thing that could have also been done 20 years ago or even more.
Impressive work by GAMI who are working on it since decades. AVWeb made 2 videos on the subject of leaded avgas and on how hard it is to get it approved. In addition, the FAA launched several failed attempts with the industry at large.

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F-WngVMJBQ The Long, Twisted And Slightly Ridiculous Story of Avgas Part 1
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mvse4Xhzwuk The Long, Twisted And Slightly Ridiculous Story of Avgas Part 2

When reading the announcement, it looks like some municipalities in California started banning the sale of leaded avgas and I suspect that helped to push the FAA to finally move in approving G1000UL. Not surprisingly, they will start providing it to the California market before the other states. In the announcement on avweb.com (https://www.avweb.com/ownership/fuel-news/gami-unleaded-avga...), they also credit Mark Baker from the AOAP to encourage the FAA to complete the project.
Why with a battery? You will need a power supply to power the monitor anyway, so I would just use an Intel NUC or any other mini PC.
In Greece it was nearly 17,000 pools undeclared https://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/02/world/europe/02evasion.ht...
Three minutes for the HTML change, one minute for the code to invalidate the caches, and at most one to handle what happens when someone replies or quotes the old tweet while the edited one replaces it.
I'm very eager to see more developments in the fresh start times!

The main reason why snapshotting became interesting for us, is because we're running development servers defined by our users. A development server could take a long time to start, sometimes minutes.

So even if we can start the VM fast, the most important speedup for us is on the user code that we cannot control.
That sounds... overly complicated (from Ryanair's thing); they have the customers' details (passport, address, payment details), just send them a bill or have them sign a promise of payment and send them on their way.
If a language has a string type then it has an edge over Zig.

Also would likely lead to even more overbooking, screwing real travelers more often.
They shoould ban the sale of knives in India. You know... It is a murder weapon and used to kill people!!

Useless people sitting at the top. Don't know any way to manage except for ban or kill...
Kinda surprised author uses GPT-3 to generate JSON and then a template to go from JSON to the reply.

Why not have GPT-3 generate the reply?
> And no, neither google earth or bing or apple have detailed enough picture quality to identify anything.

Google is involved in the project. This almost certainly uses google earth’s data
So when are we seeing the sunset date of leaded fuel? The government should step in and set it to help the industry move along
From next year they may ship iPhones from china and India simultaneously
While true, the Lady at the desk still would not have let them pass. and once the plane is gone...
The thing is, iOS's security and application model was like that since the beginning. Tech-minded people buying into Apple ecosystem knew these details from the get go. I personally accepted these terms before getting my iOS devices, for one.

It's not like the Android ecosystem, which started as an open source free for all mobile OS, which iteratively locked and closed down, starting from Google integration to OS and boot loader level.

Now, Google is preparing to throw Linux kernel out of Android for a even more tightly controlled Fuchsia kernel. I'm hoarding my popcorn and wait for the day when the hardware vendors stop building their Fuchsia drivers to control how they deprecate their hardware, and fine-tune their bottom lines.

The response from the community will worth a watch.

Also, in pure irony, Apple is preparing to allow application sideloading.

Interesting times, indeed.
I feel fairly confident we in the UK are heading into a deep and long recession/depression. I really hope I’m wrong, but I really don’t see how we get out of the current situation quickly.
> Personally, I thought the muddled Proc, block, and lambda situation a mess

Why not use one (probably just block) for everything? Coming from ruby 10 years ago.
Which still could have been easily identified by a plane ride too
It’s weird the tone of the article, like this is a wonderful thing! Well done AI! Now what’s next for it to spy on?
Thanks a lot! I knew only eightcolors, somehow, I think it's been posted here before. I loved all the others as well with a slight preference for kuroma and ohh1. They've been bookmarked!

If you ever beat 97 at reach 100, let me know, I'm dying to find out if and how someone reaches the end! There's a "trick" that'll get you reliably in the 90's but I think it's a dead-end and you cannot reach 100 with it.
Cannot agree more. I returned 3 USB-C docks in a row. It didn't matter cheap or expensive, none worked fully as expected.
Well I started in the 90s so I never used boostrap and always thought it was rubbish. That said, I could see how it gets you off the ground quickly.

I'd say... Use whatever you're comfortable with unless you want another problem to solve.

Nowadays the cool kids have all moved towards tailwindcss. It feels to me like a successor to bootstrap... It's bootstrap that only exports what it needs of itself. The problem is the disgusting html semantics that comes with it. How much do you have to hate CSS to duplicate weird class names, which are in essence a shadow of CSS within the code?... Over and over. It's like the 90s all over again and putting all the style within the html tags!

So I'd say, use bootstrap if you're comfortable with, it's fine, or roll your own.

I've used bulma[1] with some success for a small project, the problem is I always end up fighting the framework. It's hard to find one that doesn't limit you in some way, or pollute the namespace with a ton of junk you'll never use. On the other side of the stack you have tailwind which I'm becoming allergic to.

It's worth learning CSS, there is nothing hard. Most of my products/site are custom CSS. It's easy to jump back in and inspect old code. CSS stays CSS. Those frameworks come and go like the resume piece they started as.

It drives my CPUs insane, so...no, thank you.
What if the image processing is only allowing them to detect potential undeclared pools, and they only issue the corresponding fine once it has been confirmed by a guy in a plane (or at ground level) who has been sent to double-check?
Chocolate crossiants and iced lattes in Leicester - is she having a laugh ...
They're doing the same thing in Italy.

Yes, there are aerial photos since the 50s, no, it's not possible for humans to scan all of them, not in a life time.

> 10 people in a neigbourhood that have "saved" 300 bucks a year.

That's not the point.

The points are:

- social justice, if I pay you have to pay. If you don't pay taxes to IRS what happens? I bet they use a lot more than AI to find people who eludes them...

- undisclosed pools (and other undisclosed properties) are a proxy for other illegal activities. For example in Italy villas of sentenced criminals are usually hidden. This way the State could find them and confiscate them.

Anyway in Italy they have already discovered more than 20 thousand undisclosed pools. And the job is not done yet.

EDIT: I work in an insurance company, we use similar techniques to identify buildings in satellite images and compare them to same pictures after a flood or a fire, to estimate damages.

It could be done by human eyes, It would take years.

This way clients are reimbursed swiftly and can start rebuilding what has been damaged.
A kind of megalophobia? Mixed with what cosmic horror invokes, the feeling that you are nothing in an indifferent universe. Knowing just enough about the universe to know you are nothing.
Sorry, meant to add - a service like you describe would need to pull out just the relevant text, and then deal with a host of potential copyright issues.
YouTube is plagued by unnecessarily padded content because I believe creators were rewarded depending on how much time they spent watching their videos (and hence number of ads that can be shown). Vast majority of YouTube videos I come across can be reduced by 90% in length without any loss in information you are seeking. YouTube needs to simply change incentives for the content creators and TikTok will have a massive competition.
This requirement was actually pushed on Boeing by Southwest. They insisted that the MAX not require training for their pilots, and with Southwest being a large 737 customer with other good options (A320), Boeing found a way.
Yes it's a good point, this is one of the reasons that we wanted the fork time to be low. If we keep it low enough, the connection won't break and other users won't notice it. That said, for some things (like terminal access) it's impossible to hide it.

Practically, 99% of the forks will be done from the `main`/`master` branch of the repo, which is read-only for everyone on the team. So the mini-pause isn't breaking in those cases.
Yeah, certainly, there isn't much they could do than complain afterwards (probably fruitlessly), sadly.
Not far off from something like:

IEEE 802.11af-2013.

Which I like to read with the "af" translated the popular parlance of it's time.
I ran into many of these same problems when trying to replicate ROS environments five years ago. It's not Python's fault, it's just academics being bad at releasing software. After all, why would they?

In a university, ten steps to replicate the PI's personal environment is perfectly fine. How would releasing a single binary make their life any easier? Why would they bother?
>I think Meta really screwed up by not creating a stand-alone Reels app

The fact you don't know of Lasso, but do know of Reels is telling of how well that strategy works.

That's a ridiculous argumentation. This infrastructure was not built or maintained "just do idenfiy those 10 people in a neigbourhood that have "saved" 300 bucks a year". It exists for lots of different, likely more useful use cases, and this is just another added usecase that can utilise already existing infrastructure for no added cost.

Your statement is comparable to calling it ridiculous that we have roads "just so an ice cream truck can sell ice cones to neighbourhood kids during the summer". That's obviously not the main use case for roads.
Twitter is so safe in comparison...
Just curious whether you have checked out Nim. I love it coming from Python, curious to know what Crystal offers apart from Nim for Python users.
Well apperently this is based on "covid".

Even on their planes here, you will not be able to buy anything with cash.
If there's life / alien AI in the neighborhood, they already know about us.

That's relatively frightening.
That's not how that works.

I can have 150000 euros which I can use in an emergency, like being unemployed, long sick leave, needing move out of country due to family reasons OR I can risk not having it available when I needed and earn some money. Without the profit I have no reason for the risk.

Furthermore, me not investing removes a house from the renting market which makes it harder for people with less income, specially young people. To have a place to live because the same house will be available for purchase through a mortgage... and mortgages are not good.

You have to make a 10% down payment and you're almost always tied to a flexible interest rate... so people with less economic freedom are the ones to suffer the most.

You might disagree that things should not be like this which is fine, I'm only arguing over what happens now.
Yeah, that's part of the "good enough" onboard audio.

But I doubt that gaming was the key driver at that point, it surely was the demand for work PCs to play the new .wav soundeffects of Win95, which led to mediocre onboard audio with Software MIDI-synths.
I vividly remember VIA onboard Audio everywhere, with gamers still putting Soundblasters in their PCs (fighting the BIOS to free up the IRQ and DMA ports) for the better quality and games still being developed for "Soundblaster 16".

Good times :)
While I am confident that there will be a recession, indeed probably already in one, I suspect it will only really impact the poor and brexity parts of the country.
> And no, neither google earth or bing or apple have detailed enough picture quality to identify anything.

We have a (small, legal) pool. One year we bought that inflatable green alligator pool toy which was so popular -- one of these

There was a time you could see our pool alligator on google earth.
Content and data are not advantage. Creators can simply re-upload their content to Insta/YouTube to increase their revenues. It's already happening. It will accelerate if Insta/YouTube provides right incentives.
> Banks have excellent security. But often the restrictions are so onerous that productivity suffers.

I once worked a very short stint as an external dev at a private bank (6 weeks).

The side entrance we used had a revolving door-style airlock with enough space for a single person to stand, protected by a card reader using unlabelled RFID-style cards.

This was obviously to ensure that for every person entering, there was exactly 1 card swipe, no one could hold the door for anyone else, etc.. Real claustrophobic in there, to the point where it was impossible to step through the revolving door, you had to do stutter steps while the door revolved around you.

So obviously this airlock was broken at least 60% of the time. Its replacement was a normal door next to it, which was left completely open instead.
> Which still could have been easily

I believe your definition of easy is a bit faulty.
You missed the part where they illegally used private data to ascertain every individual in the area.

Then cross reference et cetera.

There was the illegal part, at the beginning. The police could have just put in the effort and checking on information from various channels, determined the same information. However, that requires effort and occasionally intelligent actors. So, instead, they do the illegal part, scrub that from the record, and pretend they figured it out, with a pencil and a pad!
Oh please. If they have to do it they should go the satellite image way, way less pollution, less noise and at least a chance to get everyone not just a bunch of random unlucky people.
A lot of companies don't support addresses with a '+' in them. I'm really surprised by this because this doesn't seem to be super uncommon.

There's also companies that don't allow some words in email addresses. For example, on AliExpress, you can't use 'aliexpress' in your address.
