On the other hand, we once hired a remote guy at a company I worked for. There was no identity fraud.

He just didn't do any work. Got fired ofc.

Is that better?
Same. I like to walk around while I talk so you won't see me (and I won't see you) anyway. When I'm sitting down, unnecessary visual input (what's with your hair and are you really listening or browsing the web?) immediately distracts me.
It seems Mercedes are not going that direction at all with with the EQ range. They've gone all in, the MMI is deeply embedded into the car, speech recognition runs locally, it can control performance mode, seat massagers, huge swathes of car specific functionality, via speech, that I think Apple would have an uphill to catch up with, universally, across all vendors.

I doubt the upper tier of manufacturers would be happy with mere UI skins either.

Cars that are more like appliances, shared cars, with user customization in your phone, maybe that could work?
I have reader mode on by default in Brave, but it doesn’t always work and (at least sometimes) doesn’t display images from the article. reader mode is extremely non-trivial to implement
Toilets. Pretty amazing longevity if you ask me.
I've never used Docker (nor make). From the outside, it feels like some heavy VM thing for building isolated systems in the cloud. It's not something I'm used to seeing in the client-side ecosystem.

I just took a second look at the repo, and realized there's no package.json. Typically, an open-source JavaScript project would have one. It would enumerate the dependencies and how they work together to generate the final output.

As a JavaScript contributor, I expect to be able to type

yarn
yarn run build

into any repo to generate the output (and test any changes I've made).

I suspect the interactive web is not the author's primary platform. That's fine - it's his project; he can structure it however he wants. I was just surprised to see an unfamiliar, nontrivial dependency to concatenate a handful of lines into a bookmarklet.

Since you asked "Do you know a better way?" you can port the `npm install` line to a dictionary of dependencies in package.json. You can use wireit in that same file to chain the CLIs together, accomplishing what's currently the ENTRYPOINT line in Dockerfile.

It does the same thing that the current setup does, but it follows the conventions of the ecosystem. This makes it more available to external contributors, because they don't have to learn/install tools like Docker that aren't typically seen in JS.

If it doesn’t work with ‘this Debian nonsense’, you’re doing it wrong and you’re contributing to a bad faux dependency on bash as /bin/sh.

The Unix world is better off if there is the option of using another shell that isn’t bug for bug compatible with bash.

This behavior is what leads to systems that have to emulate ancient bloated interfaces because they need to support applications that use apis that are defined as ‘how that program does it’. That’s bad. We should avoid it. Avoiding it is a benefit.

Exercise with weights linked to lower risk of early death, study says
XSS will mean that attackers control browser UI, that's kind of bad
Like on any crime scene, who profits from the crime?

Well, a few things first:

1- NS1 along NS2 are (were) shutdown and clearly these were not going to re-open, not before the end of the war - not politically acceptable for Putin, even less for Germany

2- The war is going to last for many more months (best case scenario) or a year or two or ... No matter how long it will really last, Europe, after having survived Winter 2022 will not be reliant to Russian gas anymore. It's clear to everyone that NS1 / NS2 will likely never re-open again.

3- Based on #2, you can assume that NS2 like NS1 are just dead ...

So again, who profits from the crime?

1- USA: why would they take the risk to destroy the pipeline knowing Germans won't buy Russian gas in the foreseeable future? Their utmost priority is that Ukraine defeats Russia to send a strong message to China. They can't care less about NS2 at the moment, but they care most about unity among western countries, that's how Russia will lose and that's how they will win. Of course, Germany becoming dependent on US gas is a good thing for them, but it's not really a strategic objective, at most tactical ...

2- Russia: they are losing the war and now throwing conscripts with not a day of training on the front. That's pretty desperate move to say the least. Whenever they escalate, they see that as a chance to break unity among the west. Blowing up their (now useless) pipeline is in line with another desperate move: at least try to make something useful out of it. If Russia loses the war, Putin is just dead (at least politically). He can't care less about Russia economy at the moment.

3- Eastern Europe: their hate for Russia is very strong and they obviously welcome such a move. But like for the US, they want very hard Ukraine to win, and blowing up such a pipeline is not clear the immediate benefit. Besides, it's still a risky operation and it's not clear whether they just have the capacity to carry out such an operation without taking the risk of being detected.
That positive was gained when Russia closed NS1 supply, which was due to end on German terms.

After that win, it was set in stone that Germany was done with Russian gas.
I once found 15gb+ of Spotify cache from my 256gb MacBook. Deleted the app and use the web player now.
Staying alive, and staying in charge, are probably even more primary than winning the war.

I'm not saying I believe this is the cause, mind you. I'm firmly undecided on that one.

> I remember the Apple Music app caching and never removing any songs you’ve listened to and not showing any space it uses in settings.

Wait—really? I don't use Apple Music, but surely with heavy use, you could easily end up with a cache that's hundreds and hundreds of gigabytes large...
After testing Whisper (small model) on real recordings, some of them just noice such as chairs moving or doors being shut, I have seen that it sometimes invent crazy things. Sometimes, it infers urls from what, to my ear, is just noise or things that may have emerged from movies (like "GUNSHOT" or "The storm becomes stronger"), also from just noise. Since it often creates strange things with correct grammar, it can be hard to identify which parts that are erroneous
I was thinking along those lines, but the majority of phones are Android and I can't see a car manufacturer tying major features of a vehicle to users of Apple phones.

Do they get Google to implement equivalent Android features just as CarPlay and Android Auto are complementary now? In some ways that makes sense (you get the personal assistant you prefer instead of one provided by the car company) but it means differentiation must be limited because the car can't change too much depending on what phone is plugged into it.
In the sense that bash was better than ksh in a way that's difficult to articulate?
My heart goes out to this author, but you can tell even by his first table that he doesn't quite understand the mathematics of financial markets, the purpose of a hedge fund, how they grow etc.

1) It's plain by quickly looking at the allocation of capital in investment firms, that AUM is not made by performance; it's marketing. At best people invest when they believe a person is connected to inside information. Saying you have an ML advisor is really just a pre-req to these people.

2) Is that allocation stupid? No, it's not, because actually the powers of mathematics and by extension ML are intrinsically limited for investment returns because they are fat-tailed </Taleb>. For example this author quotes a realistic sharpe (0.8), but didn't calculate the standard deviation in his sharpe, which I would bet a large sum was _at least_ 0.8. Ie: he doesn't really know what his sharpe is. This is because equity assets behave like a student-t distributions with a degree-of-freedom parameter ~2 or less </Mandlebrot, /Bergomi, /Gatheral etc.>. Ie: higher moments such as uncertainty in sharpe, literally do not exist or converge and are unknowable. The only exception is if your strategy explicitly cuts off tails.

Once you understand 2) you begin to understand that there's no such thing as a real quant fund (ie a fund which truly makes money predictably using models) which doesn't trade a liquidity limited book that has quite advanced hedging. Wealthy people are aware of this, which is why the author can't market this product.

If you're doing something silly like holding equities without tail risk control, you literally cannot be quantitatively investing. You are just slowly rediscovering what Kelly, Bergomi, Mandlebrot, Bernay's etc. realized with a little deep thought over pen and paper (while clumsily writing boilerplate software.) That markets are entropy machines rougher than a normal distribution, and any gains come directly from information. (see: Kelly: "a novel interpretation of the information rate".)

For a high latency (ms) market data feed, the returns on information are very very small. Markets are efficient.
Oh wow. Ok I stand corrected. Wonder if they will pay.
I was wrong, it appears he will get $250MM if they end up having to pay.
yup! me too. Thats how i ended up buying a new car instead of a recent second-hand version of the same. Carplay was an absolute non-negotiable must have.
I don't follow the logic. Isn't the fact that the SEC got wise to crypto scams and started enforcing them belatedly a good thing? Better late than never, right?

From your tone it seems to me like you think the injustice here is that Kin and TON should have been allowed on the gravy train too?

Your data is rather meaningless… but I'm happy your statistic that excludes all the data points you dislike proves your theory :)
I have tried to play Eve for 2 or 3 weeks. It was terrible.

Nobody talking about the "great wars" on EVE will tell you, but multiaccounting/multiboxing is not only incentivized, but a part of the business model of the game itself. So you can see 50 ships, but it's actually 1 guy spending a lot of money. For what I have seen, these whales are central to the game, as they are the people leading the corporations etc

For the gameplay loop it's either engaging socially with the whole corporate structure, or dealing with the core game which is pretty boring with it's minigames, it's grind and it's spreadsheet-like economy.

Pvp is utterly boring and feels so unresponsive - I think I also had a lag problem (as eve consists of 1 server only, in the us, afaik).

To learn about the game you have to read entire wikis, the missions are terrible, etc

EVE is a very small game (by playerbase, even though it's not a real number because of alt accounts and bots) considering the amount of publicity it gets now and again and the grandeur of it. It's only alive because they have mastered the whole whale-based business model a loooong time ago it seems lol
Speaking as somebody who doesn't care at all about cars, the primary things that would drive my car purchase would be:

- Cost (per unit distance in fuel, maintenance, etc)

- Comfort (which includes integration with other software, ie Carplay)

I don't care about "performance"; I don't even know what that means, and frankly I don't care. The car needs to get from my house to some other point on the map and back cheaply and comfortably.
This looks really nice. Great UI and UX. How do you view Crontaboo compares against the numerous competitors?

Eve Online isn't zero-sum, it's a semi-managed economy where resources are balanced by a team of actual economists. The goal of the company isn't perfect economics either- it's about getting as many players as possible.

There are a lot of levers the company can use to move that economy. For base resources they can spawn more resources in easier to access areas, for items they can release more through their NPC traders or increase drop rates.

Even outside of that there are a lot of aspects that aren't zero sum. There are more resources in the game, by far, than are currently mined. As new players enter the game then more resources start flowing through the economy as a result. The only resource that is really limited is territory, but even that has been increased over time (such as when wormholes were introduced).

I didn’t buy my Audi for the HUD (or other UI) but I’m unlikely to buy another one after:

1. The Android based entertainment system regularly crashes.
2. The non-android based digital center cluster is designed so poorly as to have the date in two to three places and fuel levels hidden by default.
3. Safety systems that will needlessly engage the brakes because it believes that driving past the backed up left turn lane on a gently curving road is an imminent head on collision.

I’ve learned to work around these issues for the most part. Disabling all the wireless hardware reduces, but does not eliminate entertainment crashes. I memorized the steering wheel dial flicks to get the fuel gauge to display. I turn off the safety features.

Most of the car is very nice. The software stack is honestly something Audi should have outsourced to a competent development team elsewhere in the automotive industry.
It is coming. Tides are already turning as older folks die off and multiples of younger folks want housing.

The POSIX shell actually devolved from Korn and bash.

ksh88 worked very hard to compile its data segment in under 64k so it would work on Xenix running on a 286 and similarly constrained systems. The code was sphagetti gymnastics in achieving this.

The POSIX shell standard removed many features of the ksh88 language. It appears that this was done in an attempt to maintain a small footprint, but clarify the code.

This is good for embedded systems, but bad if you need arrays.
How do you know that Putin is suffering? I think this is really outlandish to say so. Putin is still selling its energy to the largest economies in the world while Europe is stocking up on wood so they dont freeze this winter.

We are curious about this set of solutions for allowing clients to run their own code on our system.

For example, a client wants to write a workflow but has a custom step that integrates with their system only. They can write the code and run as part of our workflow without us worrying about them writing something nefarious and breaking out of the sandbox.

That said, the workerd github says that this can't (yet?) be relied on to be a security sandbox.
Don't underestimate the power of desperation. If europe was literally freezing to death they would buy russian gas.
I attended community college a few years ago and took a pair of courses designed as preparation for CompTIA A+ certification. Our final project for the class was to refurbish a desktop computer and donate it.

Our instructor fired up a compressed air machine and we blew out all the dust. We checked connections and RAM, peripherals, optical drive, HDD, etc. We made sure the things booted and probed OK. We checked cosmetics on the front bezel and around the case. No wiping HDD or installing of OS was necessary here, it was strictly a hardware/BIOS-level project.

Then we were graded and the refurbished machines were all shipped off to a local student-run project that provides usable computers to worthy organizations who need them. Definitely a feel-good project, all around!

What is the point of this article? I guess it had good engagement here but ultimately doesn’t provide anything of value. Apple will get into the car business if it can offer something better. Either way the product will be wonderful if they do, and we know they won’t abandon it too. So if they get in we can see iteratively improving product that is baseline better than many/most. Does it happen? Who knows?

> Very true! I wonder if the Sierra games (e.g. King's Quest, Space Quest) were some of the "killer apps" for Tandy computers, i.e. the apps which made people want to buy a Tandy computer.

Before VGA and Sound Blaster came along, almost certainly. The Tandy 1000 line supported 3-voice sound and more colorful graphics in a manner almost identical to the PCjr, just in a less jank package. So they looked and sounded better on a Tandy than on most contemporary 80s PCs. Sierra games not only were sold at Radio Shack, but Tandy cross-promoted them in their store, even to the point of running special Sierra/Tandy demos on in-store machines to attract buyers.

So, I have to agree there is a major shortage of affordable housing.

But, I have to disagree that this is due to a lack of building.

20 years ago, there was no housing crisis. Period.

In 20 years, did the population suddenly increase by 20%?

No, of course it didn't. In fact the US population is very flat in recent decades.

What changed?

Short term rental!!! A huge portion of the housing stock purchased, much by corporate buyers, and converted to AirBnB or VRBO.

The housing crisis is 100% created by the rise of "short term rentals", a phrase that really means: "convert a significant portion of the housing stock into unlicensed hotels".

People paying per night to rent houses are never going to be out-bid by people who want to rent by the month.

This whole BS about "not building enough", is really "not building enough to make up for all the houses now run as hotels".

There has NOT been a population boom. Ask yourself: Why were there enough houses a decade or 2 ago, but not now?
Emphasis on "hell"?

I'm not even sure that "long tail" is the right phrase for it. I'd say "virtually all." The number of open source projects that get meaningful external scrutiny from security researchers is in the tens. Tens.

There is some automation out there. It is largely worthless. Some stuff is real like "hey, you've got a private key committed over here" but pretty quickly you run into high false positive rate garbage when looking at automated systems.

> It would be trivial to recreate the EVE experience in literally any MMO by just having permadeath… Am I missing something?

Yes, a few things. Claiming territory and political hierarchy are other missing elements from essentially all other MMO’s. You can claim ownership of territory in Eve. You can then set up an alliance or parent/child relationships between guilds, such that a territory is owned by a group of cooperating guilds. This political hieraechy/network controls who shows up as “red” or attackable. Also you’d need to add full looting of gear on people you defeat, as well as harvesting of their bodies for salvage.

Another aspect missing from other mmo’s is transport logistics. Also the fact that literally every ship, weapon, and piece of ammo is created by players and transported by players with buy and sell orders in a maketplace.

In short, it’s radically and fully different from any other MMO.
It's not clear to me what you are saying. This is what I got from your post:

'Russia destroys its own pipeline so as to cause fracture in the alliance.' Not sure how is that supposed to work! Care to explain?

Also, would Russia blowing this constitute an act of war on Germany by Russia? Is that like Putin saying "we don't have enough on our plate. Lets go to war with Germany"?

Russia is the -loser- here. Why is this not clear?
This question is odd to me because 10 years ago we already had apps here in Sweden showing the weather, and current radar image of cloud density so I always found these a lot more informative than looking outside.
I was arguing from the point of view of an internet user. From the point of view of an individual service provider, of course it makes sense for them to use CF. But in aggregate, the widespread use of CF makes the internet worse.
> HTML & CSS are absolutely crap platform for interactive UIs

I mostly disagree. HTML is great for plain forms, that seamlessly work at different form-factors (from mobile to desktop) with very little work. Browsers are also good at graphical outputs.

Browsers can fall down when you need rich, complex, or custom inputs: because virtual keyboards are very different from real keyboards (iOS especially poor), and touch is very different from mouse, and game consoles are something else again!

But we go where the users are, which is usually a wide variety of devices which makes browser based deployment the default choice, so you work within the limitations of browsers.
Does this apply to Edge Mobile on iOS? To my knowledge, there's no way to hide the browser chrome on that app, which is ironic considering they open the article talking about PWAs on mobile devices.
