It sounds bonkers, but one of the reasons I pushed for moving my company’s app to React was because the useState hook reminded me of Reagent’s ratoms. I believe that was at least part of their intent. The catch is that you can’t really enforce immutability or atomic updates in plain JS, so they built hooks into the library as a workaround.

There’s not much of a cognitive difference between “defining a reagent component which uses ratoms and calls a pure function that derefs, updates or swaps them”, and “defining a react functional component that uses hooks”. It looks weird to have the “atoms” inside the render function instead of outside, and there are the aforementioned limitations (“the rules of hooks”), but it’s a compromise to get the feature into JS React in a consistent, performant manner.

I’d love to use CLJS/Reagent or even go full re-frame on our front-end codebase, but that’s a hard sell at my company since I’m the only dev who’s ever played with Clojure.

Vendors are greedy and sanctions are relatively easy to dodge, especially if the customs are told not to interfere too thoroughly. If anything, Apple hardware in Russia now costs ~20% less than it did in January. iPhone 14 is already available, too. Maybe the situation will change in the future, but no sooner than when EU will stop buying oil and gas from Putin.
There was sufficient pressure on USDT, as well as cashing out to the point of USDT briefly dropping in price by a few cents, so this isn't quite accurate.
What is Google going to do? Web scraping is legal and that's all that NewPipe does. I'd love to see what happens when YouTube requires a login.
The price is slightly punchy for a monthly subscription, but probably worth it considering the amount of valuable content on there and the amount of ads. Think they have a lifetime subscriber here!
But people are watching TikTok content on Youtube, so I think that's their point.
I guess images generated by computer systems that use if/else technology and mathematical vectors. /s

That's probably how lawyers will put it.
I’m going to bet the opposite - no school is so flush with cash they can pay a 3x premium per laptop for students thet offers the same functionality. This seems like a misguided approach to obtain mass market appeal.

AI generated images have the potential to be art in the eyes of the beholder, but let's not pretend that generation is the same as the mental, physical, and spiritual flow state that goes into painting or drawing a piece.
the only truly illegal thing is to not have enough money
In the worst case your funds would be frozen for a couple months then you’d get a letter saying we are closing your account for compliance reasons and attached would be a cashiers check for the balance of your account. Then they’d file a SAR that would get put in a queue behind the millions of others because the government only reads a small fraction of them.
It’s funny because, I can make an image and they wouldn’t know it’s A.i generated.

Yes. This is why I don't really buy all this talk of Intel is "dead and finished" and will "fade away" in the next 5 year ... Even though Intel has an inferior product to AMD, they are really good at selling their product and don't mind indulging in unethical (or even illegal) market practices to do so. They still have a lot of money and they use it well to undercut their competitors. AMD shines in technical competence against both Intel and Apple, but is weaker than both when it comes to marketing and selling their product.
FYI, the way it works in most states is that 0.08 is the "per se" limit. this means that having a BAC >= 0.08 is enough for a conviction. it does not mean you're guaranteed to be fine if your BAC is below that. if you get pulled over for any reason with a BAC >= 0.04, there is a good chance that you get arrested and face charges anyway. it's just a bit more work for the prosecution.
Fractional reserve banking means that banks must reserve a fraction of the deposits. They lend out the rest. The deposit is still on record and the obligation to repay it still exists.

If a bank never takes deposits, they have nothing to lend out. If Tether was printing Tethers without having deposits in place, they're not doing fractional reserve banking.
OTOH, I'm desperate for a tool that's "like Notion, but better", where my primary definition of "better" is that it's not slow/bloated.

I don't mean to be dismissive, but there's no doubt there'll be plenty of other places to host images like this.

Does Stable Diffusion and the like automatically add some kind of steganographic code to images so it can be automatically detected, e.g. and not added to future training sets? Obviously this could be removed deliberately, but it would prevent the vast majority of cases.
That is exactly what I find so inconsistent about the Aryan Invasion Theory. If the Aryans did indeed immigrate from Europe to India, why did Aryans in India invent the Brahmi numerals (which eventually became the Hindu Numeral System, and when Arabs came in contact with Indian Mathematicians transported it to Europe) while Europe had dumbed down Roman numerals for centuries? Why was no Vedic Knowledge or Sanskrit left behind by these Steppe nomads? I don't recall even a single instance of any migratory group not leaving behind any trace of Knowledge of their culture/traditions in their native lands.
Thanks for the feedback! No way to enter the answer, people can keep score any way they like:). Will think about how to make it clearer in the app, and look into fixing the back button
The only thing incorrect here is that Sanskrit is a syncretic language created in India through influences from Central Asia and the local languages. There are many words even in the rig Veda without any central Asian influence.
I'm in the US. Interesting to see such a discrepancy in app sizes … here's what I've got:

Home banking 1: App 382MB | Docs 10MB

Home banking 2: App 346MB | Docs 5MB

Home banking 3: App 302MB | Docs 38MB

Finance 1: App 265MB | Docs 212MB

Finance 2: App 301MB | Docs 16MB

Insurance: App 204MB | 3MB

That brings the average size to 350, or 300 for app only. I know it's not apples to apples, but kind of surprising to see such a wide gap.

Maybe it's all the advanced ML code that banks are running on our devices …

There's a couple of services I subscribed to in the last year as an experiment and YouTube premium is one of them, probably the most successful. Love not having ads, love being able to play in the background on mobile even more.

Now if only I could pay YouTube for more API calls instead of playing games with quota appeals.
I always find it interesting that after his disappearance, he ended up being found living in Japan, with a fellow chess master friend. Even after all that time, the U.S. still attempted to prosecute him.
This is purely a PR stunt for the shareholders confidence in Andy's leadership. We've been screaming from the rooftops for years, then they hire someone even worse as HR head, Beth Galetti, who clearly shares distain for the companies talent.

Andy, you've known about the culture problems for years, the fact that you're just now acknowledging them is only because the business is hurting, and burning out all the talent. You're scared shareholders will get involved if this isn't fixed. Sadly, this won't fix anything, this is the culture YOU built.

Slack releases platform open beta powered by Deno
I was worried the popup would be perceived this way, but the typical entry point to an app like this is a traditional homepage which completely blocks your view of the app. Maybe that would be better just due to people's expectations, but I wanted them to see the app right away.
They have just released an update which appears to resolve this issue.

The better comparison seems to be if Adobe were to offer an ad-supported version of illustrator and their other offerings. I'd be fine with that. (I'm in a similar boat to you. $30+ a month just isn't worth it for the hobbyist use cases I have. $10 or $15 was something I could muster.)
The citizens of the internet generally don't want to pay for many things, they get upset when the product vanishes or changes, and get upset when they become the product.

I feel like there's just a cycle here where you get advertising monopolies dominating and everyone else comes and goes / has no chance ... because nobody wants to pay.

If the money doesn't come from uses where does it come from?

He could try to play that card if he wants. Since we're going full hypothetical here I suspect he'd be removed by Russian military command if he tried. If not then it's WW3 for real; there is no 'tactical' nuke scenario that doesn't lead to a wider war.
The stories within this are awful, but why does anyone imagine things are better when euthanasia isn't an option? People in other countries also get left in care homes, sitting in faeces for days. Some wait weeks or months for suitable pain relief and other palliative care.

We should absolutely be looking to fix the underlying issues, but euthanasia isn't working against them, it's another treatment to minimise suffering. When your choices are inappropriate suffering or inappropriate death, why is one better than the other?

That's well before you consider —and I mean really consider, working with— what it is to rot away with a neurodegenerative disease. Giving people an out at an appropriate time by an appropriate mechanism has to be better than losing yourself.

But no, that doesn't sell the Spectator. "SOCIALISM KILLS THE POOR" seems much more their tone.
Youtube premium is the best value video subscription there is and its a win-win: You can a clean ad-free experience and both Youtube and the video creator get more revenue.

You can do the same if you have a lot of USD in the first place or alternatively with reserves. Printing Tether isn't required and it is questionable if a pump and dump at quite this basic of a level is profitable on average.
Germany seizes control of three refineries owned by Russian oil company Rosneft
I am a volunteer working on the ISO 20022 standard and we use Ecore, an object modelling system that was designed to bootstrap UML, to represent financial messages.

I developed a toolset for working with Ecore that was adequate for what I needed to do. I took a crack at bootstrapping UML 2 but I found there were "chicken an egg" problems that I figured would take me a month to resolve, probably some important objects would have to be duplicated but then hidden from the upper layers.

(Resolving "chicken and egg" problems is something I do very well but I've been burned by spending a month working on something I felt uniquely inspired to do and then spending much more than a month trying to sell it and finding nobody gives a damn.)

UML has a fascinating vision which parallels the W3C's vision of the the semantic web, particularly "executable UML" ought to be possible, but it is held back by vendors who thrive on almost-functional standards that require proprietary additions to really work.
The battle over online content has always been a battle of dual entitlement: People who think they're entitled to getting content for free and people who think they're entitled to getting paid for content they publish. It's OK that both can be wrong.

I would have thought so, but I’ve noticed here and Reddit that every time YouTube ads are brought up, people come out of the woodwork to announce that they proudly pay for YouTube premium. “I hate the ads so much, thank god for premium”
Maybe one day! I’d like us to do something like this but it’s probably more than a year in the future.
I'll add these!
Ok but US money markets are not backed by Evergrande debt
I think there's a pretty big misunderstanding about what, exactly, Premium funds. I get that ads are annoying, but if you're not paying for the service and you're blocking ads, you're not just hurting Youtube/Google, you're hurting content creators.

It's my understanding that, per viewer, Premium pays content creators more than ad impressions. Remember, that's per viewer. For even the very large channels, their Youtube revenue is primarily ads, but it's because their Premium viewers are a small portion of their total viewers.

Make your own choices. I'm not going to tell you what to do. Just don't play mental gymnastics over it and understand what you are actually doing when you make the decision to deprive funding "out of principle".
Dad, let's go home. Please.
What language and ecosystem do you like using? I'm curious as to what ecosystem isn't terrible unless it's just C with vendored dependencies.
Well other than that with $1,200 commuter/cx bike you are getting much better quality kit, and are still getting a load of exercise.
This looks great!

And a $300 Chromebook in and EDU environment will last 5-7 years. I wonder if this laptop which is ~4x the price can last 15 years?
Yeah - YouTube is one of the few services that actually allows you to pay to escape the ads. If you value that, pay for it (I do). This doesn't free you from "sponsored content" from the creators themselves, but that's generally easier to bypass.

I wish it also allowed you to escape the incentives that cause them to design the app to be crappy (default to 'home' instead of subscriptions), but at least they also let you turn all of that tracking/history off.

If only the other ad-driven services allowed such an escape hatch.

I don't work for Framework, but my guess is that AMD doesn't make a chip with powerful enough IO controllers to operate the Framework. It's a shame, because I also like the Ryzen mobile chipset, but even the M1 wouldn't have enough IO bandwidth to drive 4x Thunderbolt 4 ports at full speed. Love them or hate them, this is part of the Intel 'package' that you're paying for.

Besides, now is a terrible time to start offering AMD laptops. You want them to drop a 6000-series laptop when the next-gen mobile Ryzen chips were announced less than a month ago? Have some patience!
I suspect that Getty makes most of their money from licensing current interest photos to news orgs.

I don't think that particular business is going anywhere (I hope -the last thing we need, is faked-up news images).

It will probably go the way of vanced as soon as it becomes popular.
Yes, Rust is much easier to write and faster to learn than C++. This makes Rust better for many cases, but you can't really say it is more powerful.

C++ templates are hard to learn and understand, but they are one of the most powerful constructs we have in any programming language, I miss them when I work in other languages.
I wonder how often they have to replace those low priced chrome books, however. Maybe there is a good value proposition in buying a well powered machine that can be updated by an IT department in an age where laptops are never upgradable.
Amen. Worked for AWS for 6 years. 6 years I'll never get back, 6 years of abusive practices, corruption, lies, and bullshit. This is the bed they've made, let the sleep in it.
Right click to do anything with the emulator isn't much of a UI :)
Competition is great, and you'll never see me use PayPal for personal concerns over their own anti-consumer practices, but I don't see any particular value in introducing side-shows to the event.
Stripe was a real contender for PayPal because it was playing the same game. Now they actually compete. Introducing a "competitor" that is promising to NOT play the same game just means that it's a novelty. There is value in it, but it isn't going to change the monopolistic landscape because the powers that control that sector got that way by survival of the fittest. Disruption has to prove that the fitness test was invalid. And, in money, that's a LOOOOONG history of fitness testing. The financial industry is the "theory of evolution" of the business world. Its machinations are rock-solid, as far as anyone is concerned.

And, to be clear, that's not to say that they don't evolve. It's been a VERY recent trend for financial institutions to deal in social responsiveness as a metric for financial success. The whole "ESG" framework wasn't thought up by controlling parties, it was DEDUCED by analysts and bureaucrats watching market trends as the world changed. And this type of evolution is WHY finances are so rock solid - finances offer the most auditable ledger humans have ever created. We can run data analytics on finances for the rest of eternity and get amazingly predictive results.

So yeah - when other parties show up to the plate, offering to either disrupt the status quo based on solid analytical data, or to throw their own weight around (wherever it came from) within the status quo - I'll be 100% on board. But there's nothing I find substantial about a company that is pretending that eschewing the ESG methodology will make them competitive. Happy to invest some interest if they start making some headway, but until then it's just another tantrum thrown by people who are mad that they can't make money and say they hate people at the same time.

But I will at least commiserate that we deserve better than our monopolistic overlords. I'm hoping there are more people willing to play the game in our favor (rather than for the interests of the money class), even though that isn't immediately and overwhelmingly profitable.
They will get there I'm sure! But they also need to build a business along the way
If Russia uses tactical nukes then god help us all. If one though we were living in interesting times at the moment, they will soon think these are boring times.

If a country invades a neighbor, claims it’s now part of their sovereign homeland while the neighbor is still actively defending, and then uses nukes based the justification their newly occupied “homeland” they just invaded is being invaded by its defenders then it means any country with nukes can use nukes to invade and grab neighboring territory

At the very least, everyone is going to get nukes

Actually, I was thinking I'd like to see a Framework laptop with an ARM CPU. There are ARM based Chromebooks after all.

Other than Apple's M1/M2 chips, there aren't any ARM CPUs that can match the raw power of x86, but Apple has demonstrated what's possible. And it would do a lot to resolve the battery life.

Yeah, obviously the thing we want to maximize is the energy output per labor input, since the whole point of having this energy is to use as an input to further labor-saving processes. Chopping wood with an axe is bad on this scale. Coal and oil are much better. Renewables have the potential to be even better, if they aren't already.

Thanks for these, they are a good way to voice something that I've always felt was a problem with the EROI crowd's thinking.
They will get there! But they need to build a sustainable business
I am (personally) a bit disappointed that you'd work on a Chromebook version first, before tackling AMD or a version with a dedicated GPU.

I'll need a new laptop soon, and would really love to see either and ideally both of those.

But for the company it's probably a good move. Get help from Google on battery optimisations, open up a new market and hopefully get a sizeable order from Google directly, all without a crazy amount of re-engineering...
I wonder if this is a lower powered dual slot card, simply because the buyers of workstation models from HP, Dell etc would be unreasonably hamstrung by a three slot model - traditionally these systems have a full powered x16 lane in the location that would be taken by a three slot cooler.
I think grills on plastic bladed fans are an anachronism. Most fan blades used to be metal (some still are) and those can likely hurt you badly if you stick your finger in the blades. Plastic fan blades came later, but by that time people expected fans to come with blade guards so they do, even though they now serve no practical purpose. I can stop my plastic-bladed box fan by flicking my pinky finger between the blades and it doesn't even leave a bruise. But I leave the fan guard on my metal bladed lasko, I think that fan might cut my finger off if I tried the same trick. Those metal fan blades are fairly sharp and have a lot more momentum.
There are many reasons which were cited, but in the end, we don't know:

- take over the newly discovered fossil gas reserves from in-land and at-sea of Ukraine.

- terminate for good the since-2014 donbass border conflict by taking over the donbass for the pro-russian ukrainians (which would become russians) and brutally expelling the pro-ukranian ukrainians.

- "getting" rid of a 4000 weaponized neo-nazi "azof" bataillon.

- "drug addicts" ???

- the religious-grade "greater russia" (similar to the relgious-grade "one china" with taiwan).

I play dota2 (on elf/linux ofc), mixed ukrainian-russian teams are from the best in the world, and are _CURRENTLY_ competing. Will they be considered "traitors" in their respective countries?

It does not make any sense at all, really not.
How is that better?

If I'm spending my money on a slot, I have the chance to get my money back. Gatcha takes my money forever and when the game is gone, so is everything I spent and won. For that reason, Gatcha games and loot boxes are even more predatory, because they are giving an advantage to people and pumping up their sense of pride.
