> They've done a good job at turning around their reputation by dedicating themselves to NMS, but it's still a shell of a promised game.

Sidenote: I don't know about the last time you checked out NMS, but by now it has way more than what was originally promised. And not just in quantity, but in terms of actual qualitative features and things to do.
First off, a small issue of terminology:

The concept behind Nomad is for guests and hosts to
pay zero in fees, no cleaning fee

I used the "log into guest account" feature of the site to book a 22-day reservation and the receipt showed this.

* $580 x 22 days: $12760.00

* Cleaning fee: $510.40

* Service fee: $1020.80

$1531.20 is kinda... not zero. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Second, IMO your "MVP" isn't demonstrating the "product" part; a well-designed reservation site isn't terribly innovative. For that matter, it's unclear from the pitch deck what the "product" is: is it the $30k/yr "Nomad Pass" that's mentioned on two slides? Is it star ratings? Is it the app guests use to measure the wifi strength? The deck mentions (on slide 20) getting bookings "irrespective of timing", maybe sourcing tenants reliably is the innovation?
Clearly not a mistake.
the spec is pretty easy to digest in my opinion. I'd start there:

On that note: the city actually spends more on the NYPD for fare evasion than they could possibly recover from it[1]. I'd rather the city just give every teenager a free card instead, and spend the savings on a tipline for complaints about NYPD officers on their phones[2].

I think you’re overestimating the demand for people who can implement a binary tree.

Then again, when I used to work more with node, I would complain daily that those kids were just reimplementing solved problems in computing … poorly. I’m working more with elixir these days and everything is so fast that I’ve never stopped to dig into the implementation.
China is moving to RISC-V to remove its dependency on amd64 and arm64, and thus to US sanctions since Intel/AMD and ARM are subject to US law.

Intel wants to keep the ability to serve the Chinese market, that means in the long terms having RISC-V offerings, hence the investment in SiFive.

Unlike Ottelini, Gelsinger is not a bean-counter who sold off StrongARM/XScale to Marvell and thus made Intel irrelevant to the ARM market, and by extension to mobile computing.
For this statement to make sense, the reader would need to assume that I think I'm the only one who didn't know this. Since I stated I didn't know this in my actual post, and since I assume you read it, I honestly wonder what motivated you to post this. If you're trying to take me down a peg, it makes no sense since I stated I didn't know. If you're trying to remind me that I didn't know and others did, well, the article that I literally commented on wouldn't exist if that was false. So again, why did you say this?

I think a more interesting point is that people in the UK and Japan specifically are poorer than you'd think they are. And they don't have working clothes dryers either.

> Darwin (the Unix layer underneath the GUI) operating system available, which is something they probably don’t want to do.

Darwin is open source, and Apple did make Darwin available[1][2], but the issues are it takes some skill, experience, and understanding to put it all together and build it, and many parts have become closed source since Apple first released. Also, there are basically no drivers for anything.

At least two projects derived from it, making it far easier to install and boot, OpenDarwin and PureDarwin. PureDarwin[3] had a couple of bootable releases, but I haven't heard much about it since their last release years ago, but their site says they've been working on drivers and a modified XNU to work without Apple's closed source portions.

IIRC, way back during the end of PPC, I was able to install and boot Darwin CLI on an x86 (probably 486 or Pentium something), but without any drivers, I couldn't do anything with it other than boot it and explore the filesystem. I couldn't even get it to network, so I couldn't install MacPorts, lost interest pretty quickly. It looked exactly like booting Mac OS X without Quartz, Apple's pretty command line.

But the PureDarwin release had X11, and by the screenshots, looked pretty neat. I intended to try PureDarwin's Xmas release in a vm back in the late 2000s, but I was jerked around a lot back then with living arrangements and never got back around to it. PureDarwin's later releases had a lot more functionality.

When I used to be driven from Arnhem to Oberhausen (ca. 199x) it's been very obvious when you've crossed the border to .de, not even because of the checkpoints, which still existed then, but because of the noises the car made when it went over the gaps between the concrete plates which probably were the same as in 194x, or so, when they Autobahn has been built.

Very annoying when stoned!
Your record–array correspondence reminded me of Nils Holmes's T3X language: it has "struct" defintions like this:

STRUCT struct_name = field_1, ..., field_N;

but it's just a syntactic sugar for

CONST field_1 = 0, ..., field_N = N-1, struct_name = N;

just so that suitably sized vectors can be used as records:

STRUCT POINT = PX, PY, PCOLOR; ! same as CONST PX = 0, PY = 1, PCOLOR = 2, POINT = 3;
VAR p[POINT]; ! same as VAR p[3];

p[PCOLOR] := 42; ! same as p[2] := 42;

It works reasonably well and actually allows for somewhat better meta-programming than e.g. C with its X-macros because you can literally loop over a struct's field, in a normal FOR loop.

The slippery slope is real. And as far as we're concerned, taking the Hijab away is one very obvious step in that direction. Just look at history.

I'm not defending the Iranian regime by the way.

You're straw manning to assume that the Hijab's only reason is lack of self control. It's one part of many things that we have in Islam to preserve morality and purity. For example, both men and women are ordered to lower their gaze.

I'm not moralizing here. I'm defending my religion and land from the assumption of the secular west that they're here to liberate us from "oppression".
I do not, since they invariably flee back to the US before ponying up anything they deem unreasonable.

I don't think OpenAI being open source would have made much of a difference. The AI cat has been out of the bag so open source models and tools would have come anyway. Once the idea is out there it's only a matter of time.

The only people keeping some AI secrets secret would be quants and perhaps the NSA.

Also the ArXiv literature explosion is proof of the Cambrian explosion.

Training the damn things though, that's the tricky part. I want to build products on your platform as that's where the money is.

"Corrective action" is quality system jargon.
Reminds me of Facebook's Flicks, which are a super short tiny common denominator time unit:

> A flick (frame-tick) is a very small unit of time. It is 1/705600000 of a second, exactly.

> 1 flick = 1/705600000 second
This unit of time is the smallest time unit which is LARGER than a nanosecond, and can in integer quantities exactly represent a single frame duration for 24 Hz, 25 Hz, 30 Hz, 48 Hz, 50 Hz, 60 Hz, 90 Hz, 100 Hz, 120 Hz, and also 1/1000 divisions of each, as well as a single sample duration for 8 kHz, 16 kHz, 22.05 kHz, 24 kHz, 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, and 192kHz, as well as the NTSC frame durations for 24 * (1000/1001) Hz, 30 * (1000/1001) Hz, 60 * (1000/1001) Hz, and 120 * (1000/1001) Hz.

Guess the project got archived. Seemed like a semi sensible high res time format that was very media friendly.

Okay but my most common case for datetime.utcnow() is that I want the time in UTC for an external system that doesn't understand timezones, you really want me to do datetime.now(tz=timezone.utc).replace(tz=None)?
Microsoft doesn't just open source stuff. Maybe it has some kind of tracking or analytics that this is a vector for?

Microsoft has contempt for humanity not to mention open source and isn't simply handing things out to the public to make the world a better place.
I would only take it seriously if Intel tasked this to its scrappy Israeli R&D, which saved the company from Itanic and Netburst irrelevance.
The article is in response to that tweet, and references a response from Lufthansa.

In the face of two conflicting statements attributed to the same source, one possibility is to believe the primary source, but another is to believe the latest trustworthy source. If you consider The Points Guy to be trustworthy aviation journalism (which I do) then it's reasonable to believe Lufthansa's clarification in response to the tweet you linked.
Actually, I think types are erased in most typed languages, unless they support runtime reflection.

I use .io because other tech folks do. Sometimes my email confuses non-tech people so I just tell them it stands for input/output.

If I could have had .com I would have taken it. .net has always felt cheap (as in, it looks second rate) to me, just personal preference.

In general, dependently typed systems lack the ability to metaprogram at the syntactic level. This is particularly true we’re binding forms are concerned. The most thoroughly pursued type theoretic way to do this is to implement a modal type system, which is technically orthogonal to the dependency capabilities of the type system, but integration of the two is tricky.
> rejecting the occasional correct program is a reasonable price to pay for rejecting all incorrect programs

I agree with you, but the C++ language disagrees very strongly, the set phrase in the C++ standard is "Ill-formed, no diagnostic required". ie the compiler isn't required to do anything sane in this case, but it also isn't required to emit a warning or error.

Hah reminds me of an issue with AT&T in the Bay Area in 2020 during peak Covid. Somehow someone with a strong background in this narrowed it to a bad RAM where it’s flipping one of the bits which breaks SSL (?) on one of the stations within the tracenet. Everyone tried complaining on twitter to AT&T since telling customer rep did not help at all (went right over their head). This issue persisted for a couple weeks but I moved before they fixed it.
> Stable Diffusion is not open source, since its license discriminates against fields of endeavor.

As a non-involved, not sure I understand this quote correctly.

Reads like Turing had 4 independent core equivalents, but 2 of them were incapable of FP; and Ampere has all 4 cores capable of doing either. But how are shaders scheduled to those cores?

As a programmer, how do I see those cores and send code to run on them? Are there basic samples?
I don't agree with you. It is a convenience but you do need to be careful. There are few (if any) commands that can be morphed into another to cause horror. All switch command completers I know of will not complete on ambiguity.

If you feel you are personally a bit random then use the try/commit mode that most decent gear allows. You package up a set of changes and try them out. You then commit them within an agreed time or the changes revert.

Why should I, as the user, spend time and create cards on a piece of non-free software which I have no control over? What if you stop the service? I tried it for a few minutes, but couldn't find a "export" feature apart from the "email us to get your cards as csv" part. An "export cards and progress" feature would be nice.

I tried adding a few cards, which seems to work fine even in the worst case scenario. It seems to work even in other languages? I haven't tested it enough to comment on how well it does though, but my guess would be as well as GPT does in the said language. This has the potential to be a huge time saver. If it could handle something like a few pages of notes and divide it up, I can see it being the new standard of SRS for many people.

As I said, I can't see myself using any non-free software for something as critical as learning.
Their #1 rated eGPU is from 2018. They don't measure latency. Their gaming FPS benchmarks don't list either resolution or quality settings, when they're even available. Their top 2 eGPU recommendations for mac don't contain benchmarks when running on mac.

Yeah, the eGPU market is a disaster and the review quality is terrible. I personally wouldn't touch eGPUs. Which is a shame because I absolutely adore the concept.
Yep, I remember thinking this was a great approach. Unfortunately, Swift doesn’t allow you to extend “non-nominal types”, which includes tuples.

I often find myself thinking of Swift as a not-quite-fully-baked attempt at making a Rust, and this reinforces my impression.
Point 6 of https://opensource.org/osd is "No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor: The license must not restrict anyone from making use of the program in a specific field of endeavor.

No banks and police in jurisdiction A will honor a legal document from jurisdiction B.

Except that that is often not the case, because of things like federalism, treaties and so on. Anyway, you're missing the point; you're now talking about a judgement from jurisdiction B, whereas earlier you were arguing that the rules from jurisdiction A could apply in jurisdiction B.

If a plaintiff goes to jurisdiction A with a judgement from jurisdiction B (eg pursuing the money as you suggested), you wouldn't retry the case under the rules of jurisdiction A. The reason is that the defendant (in this case the company headquartered in Florida qua jurisdiction A) agreed to the rules of the Netherlands (qua jurisdiction B) when it filed to get a business license there.

It would be different if a Dutch worker had sought employment with a company in Florida, and then complained when he didn't like the employment standards he found himself subjected to. It's the fact that the company committed itself to NL/EU law when opening a subsidiary there that subjects them to its judgments. The issue of the business license imposes conditions upon its beneficiary within the scope of its use.

Suppose something is legal your jurisdiction but not in mine. While you are in your jurisdiction, I can't sue or prosecute you for doing The Thing there. But if you come to my jurisdiction, do The Thing, and then return to your own, you can't shake off that liability because you don't get to bring your legal environment with you. The only exception I can think of offhand is with international diplomats, who get quasi-immunity because they are formally representing a different country, and whose embassies/consulates are allowed to operate under the law of their home rather than host countries.
It's not that there's no value in security-by-obscurity. The issue is when it's the only control. I agree that some are too quick to dismiss operational security controls.
it's certainly valid. Obscurity is cheap and easy.

The only problem is when it's the _only_ security for certain types of threat models that require defence in depth - such as credentials in authentication.
It's possible for analogue engineering to be incredibly challenging impressive and, to put it crassly, a bit crap.

I certainly don't miss the days of adjusting tint settings, headroom, over-scan and interlacing. Digital isn't without its issues of course, but even a lot of those trace their history back to analogue hacks - article case in point.

There is this side effect of digital lowering the bar though. Back in the analogue days, you needed to be a wizard to get anything done, which meant a lot of the people then seemed to care about the details more than they do now. Digital makes everything so easy that anyone can do it, which can go both ways.

I could see some TV producer reading this title and pitching a Mythbusters like show where they try to recreate crimes to show if the official version is plausible.

As far as I can tell, it is possible to draw such a scene by adding in the pieces and using the tools to paper over the boundaries and integrate those elements. It takes much more work than just generation but maybe one fiftieth to one hundredth of the work necessary for classic illustration.
All those reasons you gave can happen with or without deception.

The example you gave clearly had numerous other issues in it.

I guess I'm still not seeing how deception would be a problem if we fixed the other issues - including not corroborating the confession (there are methods for this, even with limited evidence).

I don't think "computers have caches that are faster to access than main memory" is just an implementation detail though; if you're designing data structures for a specific kind of storage you should teach the properties of that storage first and the data structures after.
I tried to read it, will try again later but I wasn't really getting it. the idea would be, .astimezone() is bad, and should be something equivalent to .convert_between_timezones(from, to), where there's some convenient way for "from" to indicate "the system time zone", but you still have to be explicit that you consider this arbitrary number to be in a particular time zone.

not following why the "this is the system timezone" must be hardcoded to be an invisible assumption, as opposed to something somewhat explicit. I mean this is literally not far off from a simple namechange of ".astimezone()".
