If iPhone started reneging on privacy guarantees, I for one would switch to a dumb feature phone the same day.

The fact that Facebook got decimated by the controls added indicate the level of concern people have when offered a choice.
My 5600G idles at 22W whole system (wall power). However it has the cheaper chipset, not the x prefixed one, no video card at the moment and just one NVMe ssd for storage. It does have 4 x 16 Gb ram sticks so you can go even lower if you get 2 x 32 i guess.
you can instead use the <html> and/or <body> tags as extra containers for that.
People who use screen readers would probably be very supportive of plain text Web sites. Web devs usually do a lot of work to make a Web site accessible.

In any event, email and Web sites are completely different things. Different communication mediums require different communication styles. Advocating for a certain style on one does not mean you have to also advocate for the same on another. The question would be "does rich-formatted text substantially add to the medium of email," and I think the clear answer to that is "not really."

An example of a good use of rich-formatted text contributing to an email would be coloring responses to questions. I see this one a lot, e.g. "my responses are in RED." We had the > quote style for this already, which was pretty good until an email thread started to get really, really deeply nested. In plain-text, at some point, somebody would have to edit the quotes down. There was a marginal advantage to having styled text to clear this up. Was this advantage enough to have to suffer through the majority of emails where this was not required and the formatted text was rife with extraneous or useless widgets?

I really want to see a programming system which has the visual nature which this book projects, and the deep data ties to make it all workable.

That said, these days I mostly just hack at 3D designs using OpenSCAD using either BlockSCAD or the nascent OpenSCAD Graph Editor.
I'm not sure I understand. The Australian system is weird that it isn't a insurance based system (like e.g. Germany), but they give tax insentives to high earners to get insurance. However those insurances don't pay for the basic stuff paid by the medicare system, but for extra things, for example you get faster treatment for elective surgery.

I agree that images only through AI should be removed from art sites.

The issue with AI art is that the only human contribution in those pieces is the creation of the prompt and the curation of the final image. Without sensory and experiential inputs of its own, AI can only interpolate between real images and styles. So an AI generated image doesn't add much artistic value since its not expressing any new deep truth or factual understanding of the real world.

Well isn't all art just a derivative of another piece? The issue with that statement is that art is fundamentally a communication from a human artist to a human viewer. At the level of AI prompt creation and curation, you act more like an art gallery owner rather than an artist, which doesn't communicate artistic values in the same way as does an original piece derived from the experiences, history, and skill of a human artist.

Dall-E 2, Stable Diffusion, should be used for inspiration and helping with minor elements of a piece, but someone passing off an AI generated image as part of their portfolio is disingenuous at best

> Money crimes should be prosecuted and solved at their start points and endpoints, not within the financial system. Failure to adhere to this standard is why we no longer really control the money in our bank accounts anymore

That's easier said than done. It's drastically easier to catch crime by it's results (money) than in the act. Famously that's how Capone was caught. And what would be the advantage of that, to anyone? I doubt that erroneously flagged transactions are a real problem. Do you have any numbers on the matter?
> somehow I shouldn't be allowed to hide my transactions from randoms on the internet

You can do this. But it doesn’t come without risk.

If you kept using Tornado even after it was found Pyongyang used it to launder money, yes, you lose your money. It’s analogous to local law enforcement announcing a laundromat has been laundering money for the mafia, and then—months later–someone getting upset the clothes they dropped off have been seized. They may eventually get them back. But there is reasonable suspicion in the meantime.
it's one of those things where when you notice it it's already too late.

Because remote storage is either my fork of the code I work on, or my private repo which I develop my own software.

Of course it's a branch other than master/main, even if it's on "remote".

The thing is, I do not always continue developing on a single/same system, so I do "transfer" commits. I push unfinished code to its own branch on remote, pull from other system and continue developing.

When the code completes and passes all the tests. I merge to either development to prepare for the next version, or to master if the utility is small enough.

The place where the development branch lives doesn't matter, and --amend ing a single commit during a feature development is not the most correct way either.

Oh, and I don't use GitHub for my own software. That part is over.

Although we talk a lot about disruption, only very few technologies are truly disruptive. You can tell by the panic and awe in the air whether you're dealing with real disruption or incremental change.

Dropbox made filesharing easier. It's a good product, but not disruptive. Nobody panicked that Dropbox would make their job redundant.

Uber was hard on the taxi industry, but fundamentally you still have drivers taking people from A to B. First you had to call the cab company now you use an app. It's an improvement, but not truly disruptive. Not like level 5 self-driving cars would be.

Amazon and Walmart by contrast did disrupt entire industries. Independent book shops and mom&pop retailers saw the writing on the wall. They knew they couldn't survive facing this kind of competition, and largely, they didn't.

Stable Diffusion (and similar tools) fall in this last category of truly disruptive technologies. It's going to destroy the livelihoods of the majority of independent artists in a way that looks inevitable to me. These new tools boost artist productivity by 100x and that means good artists will be producing much more art than ever before. This pushes cost down and quality expectations way up. Some artists will adapt and thrive in this new environment, but the majority won't. It won't be long until making a living with photoshop will become as hard as making a living playing guitar. This is good for society but bad for many individual artists.

There will be a backlash. People will insist that SD art isn't real art. Artists will fight back, and lose. Because SD isn't going anywhere. This is what disruption looks like, and it isn't pretty.
Well, yeah, it would make sense.

That's the reason checks or 200€+ bills are very rarely accepted anymore in businesses (in Europe at least), because they were very often fraudulent.
If they are keeping your article cached, what's the point of saying it's a high-performance blog? Saying it's slow because the CDN down means that it's just slow... You can have a 'high performance' blog run on a raspberry pi zero if it's globally cached by someone else, but then I wouldn't say that's high performance.

Cool article though. Agree on the ructe part, and I dislike how whitespace is handled. I wish Jade/Pug templates could be done in rust but will check out Maud.
It's not at all a quirk of DNS.

No, Tornado Cash is code, not a service operated by any entity.

North Korea also used HTTP for navigating websites which helped them hack targets and also launder more money. Banning Tornado Cash is like banning the HTTP specification/IETF for that, instead of going after the group in North Korea doing the money laundering/hacking.
This reminds me of what someone from the 8 years from now will say

if this is left unchecked I also will be out of a job like those useless artists all were.
Just going to point out that Tornado cash did invoke chainalysis oracles for all of their interface tools. The problem is that on ethereum it's not possible to censor a deployed contract.

There is a possibility that miners could collude not to authenticate blocks with tornado cash transactions in them, but that gets into some interesting game theory in a globally distributed system. Not every miner is subject to US law.

It's a very fascinating story.

Agree to this. Aan Apple fan acquaintance of mine recently said he might put away his phone because he could achieve everything with his watch and earpods and wanted to increase his concentration. He said he'd do his WhatsApp with voice messages and also call like that. He was fine with no display.

The issues with git performance on Windows are a lot more complicated than the number of files.

Firefox is great, I've been using it for the past few months. It required some customization, yes even to the source code to get it to my liking. For example you can't override CMD+P or use CMD+Shift+C to toggle the dev console so I had to make a patch [1]. I also had to develop a couple of plugins that were missing [2]. It's a joy to use knowing you're giving the middle finger to Google, your data is not tracked and stolen from you by Google and making the way for a more free internet. Sure sites like YouTube are slower to load (bc Google makes them so if not on Chrome?) but those are minor inconveniences and there are not a lot of them. So I'm very happy with Firefox and wish more people would tolerate a slight initial inconvenience and make the switch.

[1] Also made a Mac OS launcher filesystem hook to auto apply the patch every time the browser updates.

[2] Yes, I packaged and published them too.
If you had control over the algorithm, how many votes do you think you could change?
Cleaning up commits can also make it easier for reviewers to audit your changes. For example by breaking up a larger feature into steps that don't warrant their own pull request because they are too granular. Or by separating changes that I maybe did only to make things look more neat.
EVs can regenerate almost all the way to a stop, and only need to apply the brakes to hold the vehicle stopped.
I don’t see why AI generation would be restricted to stock art. There are plenty of very impressive results already that will displace artists further down the chain.

I think of it more like, If an artist can support themselves doing commissions of low quality art so they can support their high quality art, that’s better than if they had to drive Uber.

They can just focus on obvious cases: people that upload new images at an astounding rate, people who forget to remove the AI watermarks, and people who simply admit to using AI. No need to turn it into a witch hunt where you accuse everyone of using AI.
That said, much of modern mathematics is still fairly informal, with “the proof is left to the reader” implicitly showing up in nearly every written sentence for the sake of brevity.

No need for complicated calculations here... Back of an envelope:

- The energy density of LiIon batteries (or molten salt, or liquidy nitrogen etc) is roughly 100x smaller than that of gasoline/diesel/bunker fuel in weight terms and 40x smaller in volume terms

- The efficiency of electric motors is roughly 2x that of large diesel engines

So the amount of batteries needed for the same performance is 50x larger in weight and 20x larger in volume than the oil it carries (which for a big container ship is 6,000-10,000 tons I think). Which would be impractical.
And how do you define artistic value? If you don't even know if an image is generated by an AI or not, what is lost?
> If a smart contract does something illegal, the person who deployed it has no more responsibility than if someone does something illegal with encryption software downloaded from Github.

If I rig up my car to explode when someone walks by whistling the right tune, am I without responsibility? I didn't blow up the car.. the car blew itself up.

Obviously I'm at fault. There is no debate here. Any automation you create is acting on your behalf - and you are liable for it. If I hire a hitman.. I am guilty of murder.

AI or software isn't some clever loophole here. If you deploy an autonomous money laundering system.. you are doing money laundering.
It's going to be more like you put on the only oxygen mask in your seat row but you're the reason why there aren't more and also the reason why we need to use the masks in the first place.
There is no cause and no effect, as far as I understand it. “You” spend most of the time in bizarre states and only once in a 10^^^^^^(…)^^^^^10 seconds chances can reconstruct the next, previous or just different step of a reasonable continuous experience, including all memories “you” “think” about in this moment.

But in my opinion this is overengineered. States not only don’t have to come in order, they don’t have to form a continuous “movie” at all. An infinite amount of “current” moments with all the past and current reality already embedded in is sufficient.
Well, "expert" in "a good manager need not be subject matter expert" carries way too much weight.

A good manager doesn't need to be an expert on the matter, but he needs to understand it. Otherwise, he can not do risk analysis, planning, or stakeholder communication.
with open ledgers everyone can see your revenue. This isn't something businesses want to show competitors. Anything that can obscure your wallet (which gives away how much you own as well as shows income) can help obscure this data, which is extremely valuable to some types of businesses.

I'm sure there are other examples, but this is a good one off the top of my head and I personally have used mixers for this very purpose - to allow someone to pay me for a white-market trade without exposing how much crypto I owned in my wallet.
What other VCS has the same tooling, free-as-in-free-beer online services, and broad base of surface knowledge as git? When I started studying my TAs brought out a cool new tool called Mercurial which was my introduction to version control. Guess how often I’ve used it since. Git is the software equivalent of the piano: easy enough to wield but difficult to master, mechanically simple but highly intricate, standardised in many different shapes and sizes with incredible variation, and truly ubiquitous.

Apart from its ubiquitousness, these are all neutral features: there are lots of crappy piano players out there who might be better off learning a different instrument, but if you don’t have any other preference it’s hard to go wrong with the default choice. Git is one of those tools where it’s really not worth the trouble looking elsewhere unless you know what you’re looking for, because there’s value sometimes in going with the flow. Whether it was for the best that git was the tool we all settled on, I think there’s some good in the fact that we settled on something.
So, I need a rust compiler, to compile jakt which will compile their web engine which does not really exist currently, only forks of c++ code. To bootstrap the rust compiler written in rust, I would need static binaries of this compiler.

The first words which come to my mind is "convoluted and expensive SDK".

That said, I have not checked on rust syntax lately to see if it became insane like c++. Last time I had a look, it was not, but it was a long time ago.
The problem I see here is that ML-generated art may be based on real art.

While human painter may repeat style of fragments of work of other artist as homage, computer software does it more as plagiarism.

This isn't much different than issues surrounding Microsoft GitHub Copilot.
It should simply be a new "hey guys, look at this cool prompt I came up with" category. Using AI for easy upvotes, unwarranted clout or spam should be banned.
I think it's understated how well the current U.S. centered alliance has worked. I've never seen a name for it (G7 Alliance, maybe?), but it's broadly Western Europe, U.S., Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and South Korea. There's no one treaty uniting all the countries, but there are many overlapping treaties and alliances, and they tend to act in concert (if you look at which countries have sanctioned Russia during the recent war, it's almost entirely this group). This group also has a massive amount of people, wealth, knowledge and productive capacity. And though the U.S. is the linchpin and definitely the most powerful member, members are free to disagree and no one member calls the shots.

It's also interesting, because there doesn't seem to be any competing power block. People talk about things like BRICS, but that's little more than a conference between countries that don't share much in common and often are rivals as much as friends.
Honestly, I don't know, but I would assume Ruby's OO performance is better than Perl's with a very large extension (Moose), where some optimizations just aren't possible, given the core architecture of Perl, but I'm really getting above my pay grade in what I know about Perl internals (which is almost nothing, really, that's some scary looking stuff in there!).

I do look forward to the new class system coming to Perl based on Corrina, but I also can't comment on how performant it's going to be, either. My guess is that going ahead on this large project was based on answers to questions like, "is it going to be more useful than Moose?" "More performant?" Because if not, why not just use Moose?
Thanks for your comment.
Yes, AI predictions is yet another function within the app. These predictions focus on short term price movements of common stocks. It does not predict the price itself but aims to have an educated guess on whether the price will go up or down in the coming month. If the prediction is >50%, the price is expected to go up, otherwise a price decrease is expected. A separate prediction is made available for each common stock, and predictions are updated on each market day as more data is collected from markets. 2 different short list of stocks (one for penny stocks only, and one for the rest of the stocks) having the highest algorithmic price increase likelihood are made available as well on each day. As the prediction confidence gets closer to 100% (or 0%), the algorithmic expectation for a price increase (or decrease) gets higher for the stock. For these short listed stocks with highest price increase likelihood, sell target and stop loss figures are shared as well, which are determined based on recent volatility of each stock. (In case you are interested in technicalities, I have used LSTMs as the AI algorithm, which is a type of sequence models that considers in which order things happened in the past when generating predictions.) Worth to note that predictions are indicative, and should be evaluated by also considering technical indicators, financials of the company and even latest news, which are all also available within the app. On each page, if you press on the ? (which is at top right corner), you can find more information on how to use each function within the app.
I hope this answers your question. Thanks again for your feedback.
Technically, Scots as in those born in Scotland and still living there voted to not be British. The vote was open to all living in Scotland (above the age of 16), which includes many people from the other nations such as England who may (or may not) consider themselves Scots, and conversely some people may consider themselves Scots but not live in Scotland.
I'm not sure what happened but Dark Sky went from awesome to awful in recent months after the Apple acquisition. Is it just me? Going from "no rain all day" to actively raining with a huge storm 2 hours later. The app does update with this info, but very close to the actual storm.
Great news, helping people get rid of their stolen goods, aka "fencing" is also illegal.

No it doesn't. Unlike desktop parts the mobile chips are single die, it's the separate IO die which seems to be the primary reason for the high idle draw. Current gen AMD mobile chips are pretty much even with Intel at idle and significantly more efficient under any load metric.

That's not what they said. They said they feel guilty for being happy that others will suffer immensely while they get to skate relatively unharmed. I agree that some folks do feel unnecessarily guilty sometimes, but I don't think that applies here.
