Sadly my team had to go back to npm. Pnpm has issues in resolving dependences. Also the build box didn’t have it. There were enough quirks to make it hard to write scripts that ran smoothly between npm and pnpm.

Ameliorated Windows 10 is one "distro" I use and (blindly) trust. It lacks store app support (not a problem), .appx package support (annoying when you want Windows Terminal), creating new user accounts (unacceptable on any machine used by multiple people), and has questionable "security" decisions by default like requiring a separate admin password for elevation, disabling VBS scripts, and an ugly logon screen wallpaper that requires downloading and blindly trusting a PowerShell script from the Internet to change (https://git.ameliorated.info/Joe/amecs). Frankly... if you're using it for situations that need security, you're better off running the (documented) amelioration steps yourself than downloading shady ISOs and wallpaper changers from online.

Right - every single dependency adds potentially another human maintainer who, if bribed or threatened, could release an update that exploits your project.

You can already achieve that by combining models - use a dedicated speech synthesis model for the narration, then layer that over background effects from AudioGen.

Given that, I don't think AudioGen particularly needs to add full narration. That seems like a very different problem to me, likely requiring a completely different architecture.

They say you shouldn't try to time the market, which is probably good advice. However, my approach is/was:

- back in April, moved 401k fund from S&P allocation to cash equivalent (2% yield). Note: this wasn't a cash out, just reallocation.

- Bought long-dated treasuries (10 yr and 30 yr). Allocated through July and August. This one is not doing well, but allocation was sized appropriately (< 2% of portfolio).

- pooling any excess capital in a savings account until volatility calms down.

- have a couple rentals and plan to continue holding. It will be interesting to see some buying opportunities in the upcoming year or two.

This is an extremely clickbait title.

The 50GB figure is the number of Node modules a developer has installed on their local machine that are duplicated between multiple Node projects/repos checked out on that machine. Even for the notoriously bloated JS ecosystem that seems well above average, even assuming any given developer has >1 project checked out at once.

For reference, I'm a developer primarily working in JS. I use an old 2017 MB Air with the smallest disk (120GB) and have many many Node projects checked out (including random GH FOSS I've contributed to once). I don't use pnpm & I've never had disk space issues.

Don't get me wrong, pnpm is cool. I've started trying it out and will likely convert a a lot of stuff. But 50GB is extreme even for Node.

Partnership with cloudflare, selectively enables when you are connected to untrusted networks like public wifi.

I haven't been doing anything at all, beside some mechanical tax-loss harvesting. Suffered -21% YTD returns (~$800k lost on paper) on my 3-fund portfolio, which includes roughly 85/15 stocks/bonds.

Thanks to new contributions my net worth since last year is "just" down -11%. I haven't increased the rate of my new contributions because I have always dumped all my savings in the market since forever, I never kept any "dry powder" for moments like these as I always thought it was too much opportunity cost. Actually, thinking about it, the rate of new contributions significantly decreased this year because a good chunk of my pay is in FAANG RSUs :-)

It sucks, but I know I don't know anything and I can't risk timing the market and being double-slapped (first slap: taxes to liquidate the portfolio; second slap: not catching the market rebound, when/if it will happen).

Again, it sucks when you think how much stuff I could have bought with the ~$800k I lost on paper. My parents, old-school folks, think I am completely insane and irrational for letting this happen, and they also though this in March 2020 when I didn't sell. I literally have my dad texting me every other day begging me to sell. But surprisingly you get used to it, and I do not think I would panic, nor change my plans, even if we go much lower from here.

Messages reveal how Musk and Twitter boss fell out
You can do a lot of reading on the subject. One thing you'll find repeated is the FLQ crisis' effect on housing. Around that time a large movement of anglophones resulted in a huge drop in housing demand in Montréal. The city continued building at a reasonable pace but all those old apartment buildings/low-rises/row houses are kept maintained and thus haven't dropped out of the housing stock. The unfilled housing ratio is higher in Montréal as a result. That is simple economics.
That sample at 3200 bits per second is fantastic for such a low bitrate. I also love how that works out at 1.44MB/hr.. one floppy disk per hour!
To be hopefully crystal clear: Overwatch voice chat is a privately hosted service that’s built to be used by players during overwatch games. Blizzard moderates the content of that chat to remove disruptive content, where disruptive means “chat that makes people not enjoy playing overwatch”. In general, that’s people shouting slurs at their teammates or rambling about nonsense. Changes like the phone number requirement are part of their approach to expand the preemptive blocking of this activity. And I am fully in favor of them doing this, because it improves the quality of the game.
A slight digression, but I read[1] recently that typing “thisisunsafe” while the tab has focus is sufficient for bypassing the warning.

> if you enforce another country's laws on our citizens then you're also in violation of our local laws and will be fined

This makes no sense at all. Unless you're violating your own laws, which is not what you're arguing, then you're just complying with your own jurisdiction. Yo can't possibly be advocating punishing anyone for not violating laws in multiple jurisdictions.

i find this extremely doubtful. I see the point of your statement, but i'm willing to bet 99% of all the already built nuclear devices wouldn't work today. There's no way that they're all stored in such a way that the delicate mechanisms are protected from the environment and oxidization, moisture ingress, insects, heat and cold expansion and contraction.

That a nation could make a new device is arguable, that a nation could make a device that could be delivered without flying planes over another country is less arguable. Even nukes as they stand would only pose significant threats to certain parts of a country (there was a map floating around the web a few days back of areas of the US most susceptible to the - pardon the pun - fallout from a tactical strike.)
But the rate is set off inflation, which has still been high. Whatever they set it to next, it's still likely to be about the best available place to put 10k.

Independently of XState's visualizer and more recent IDE/plugin offerings, XState allows you to declaratively specify statecharts and fsms (vanilla JS object notation), define handlers (functions) for transitions and services, and then instantiate those machines via an interpreter provided by XState. It might not be fun to do all that, say, in a Node.js REPL, but you could.

Those are great questions, and I don't think all answers exist or if there is any base level of agreement between major anarcho-syndicalists. At least I don't know them.

Note that there are distinctions between the base salary someone is paid, the share of the profits they get (on top of the salary), and their voting rights. So people with specialized skillsets would likely get extra compensated in salary, maybe in some profits. Otherwise, they can switch to some other firm that compensates them better. Note that the only thing that is being banned is for capital to wholly own the profits emerging from the labor of others. Most other features of the market economy will continue to exist.

I don't expect any society that implements an anarcho-syndicalism to be free of "human" problems. Firms will continue to have drama, and politics, and likely people will band together to screw over other bands of people in the same or other firms. These are not visions of a utopia. The attempt is only to create an economic system that has significantly less fundamental problems than existing capitalism.

Sorry, I don't have better answers.
What your proposing is forcing a site owner to host nudity/sexual content, obscene speech, etc. Despite their own personal beliefs, due to a random nation. And you literally don’t see how that’s the same as limited content for a nation such as China.

Your entire basic argument is fallacious. If tumblr stopped showing nipples due to US censorship, that’s one thing. There’s no law barring this and no one is bending to the US legal system, the site owner themselves made this choice to appeal to the largest, most valuable chunk of their demographic. And you, as another person, can make an equally capable site minus that restriction. If people demand it (as they did OnlyFans, Twitch, VK, etc), they will switch.
> If a driver cannot react fast enough to someone on a crosswalk, then the driver is driving too fast.

You can be going 25 and a cyclist veering into the crosswalk right in front of you is going to get hit. So will one appearing in the crosswalk where a parked truck on the side of the road is blocking the view to the right of the crosswalk. Those caused the fatal crashes I know of, and the drivers in both were not charged.

> Cyclists don't throw themselves right in front of a moving car.

Yes, they do.

> It's a lot safer to cross on a crosswalk, even on a bike.

The safe way to cross on a crosswalk is to wait expectantly until the traffic sees you and stops, and then cross. There is no other safe way.

Remember, you mom prolly told you not to run across the street, but walk. Same reason.

Maybe we need a setup where local cops are investigated by the FBI, the FBI and CIA are investigated by DoD's Navy NCIS or Army CID, DoD is investigated by Homeland Security or Treasury, and Homeland Security is investigated by local cops. It's hard to collude around that big a loop.
Ask HN: What Happened to SixthSense by Pranav Misty
Let's face it.. it was a thing, a mind-blowing concept that makes you feel like you are dreaming while watching his presentation. It was truly "ahead of its time" back then.. However, at present time, with the buzz around VR-AR and recently, this "metaverse" thing, I didn't arrive to any mentions of the SixthSense or its creator, so I was wondering for a quite time now whether the idea was acquired by an AR-VR company or Pranav got hired, for this specific project, by a tech company.

For those landed here by curiosity, welcome to SixthSense, watch now https://youtu.be/YrtANPtnhyg

Browsers are incredibly expensive technologies to produce. If Microsoft of all companies could not find success with Edge classic, a browser that they wrote from scratch. Added with the ability to advertise and bundle with the worlds most popular OS, then Firefox has no chance to be the bastion against Chromium.

One part of me is curious what a realistic web landscape would look like if it was all Chromium (including Firefox). I guess at first it would be great to see cool new browser APIs, but then something will be added would cause an uproar.
