That is true, I should rephrase to state I can rent for an unspecified amount of time. But I also do not care enough about media to care if it goes away. I just buy for the toddlers who like to watch things on repeat. For me, I just rent whenever I want to watch something,
Appreciating the American Psycho vibes in his bio:

I am sorry you went through all that. The SVP sounds like a dick, irrespective of what you tweeted/didn't tweet.

I am curious, do you still do social media just as much on the side, or is it your main job now? And do you look back at your days then and think you were tweeting too hard?
>> Leakage of credentials sure has led to quite a few compromises.

> No.

> As per my post above, they "led to compromise" because lazy syadmins have been too inept to RTFM and make full use of IAM.

You're contradicting yourself: "No, it hasn't led to compromises" but "they led to compromise because ..."

It's possible that (as you argue) AWS IAM provides strong security controls and, simultaneously, a lot of people use it in a way where credential leak _does_ represent compromise. My going-in expectation is that both of these are true. But this post isn't about whether AWS IAM is any good. Nor does the post talk about solutions -- I don't see a call to action to buy Datadog (aside from the banner in the footer that doesn't look connected to the post). So your criticism of "this is a non-problem -- everybody's just using it wrong" sounds pretty lame.
Meh, maintaining the fully automated TV show downloader I used to use was a pain in the butt and it was always having some issue or another. I'll gladly pay the $100 or w/e per month to avoid it, and I haven't had a problem like yours where something I wanted to watch wasn't available.

As I get older, I find myself more willing than before to trade cash for time, and this is exactly one of those scenarios.

Rick and Morty came close, but Youtube TV taped the episodes for me so I watch them there.
While we have been paid Jetbrains customers for more years than I can remember, their latest price hike has caused me to take pause. I see a path towards $1,000 or more per license. We are seriously considering getting off this train before it is too late.
AI is bad at music also. Even the state of the art transformer models can't produce more than a few seconds of coherent melodic phrases.
Surprise: you can already do this in Meta’s Workrooms. Opening a private interactive window to your computer while in a VR meeting works as expected, although it’s just as obvious as when you do it in a video call…
But if it's rational and has a sense of truth, then it's AGI. Which I don't think is impossible or even unattainable within a reasonable amount of time, but we're .001% of the way there, not 50% or 75%.

These models are fascinating, but the problem 'a lot of the things this model generates lack any semantic meaning' is inherent and likely insurmountable without connecting the model to other, far more complex models that haven't been built yet.

We are at the level where our models can consistently generate blocks of text with full sentences in them that make grammatical sense. Which is pretty cool.

But the next step is being able to consistently generate full sentences that make grammatical sense and usefully convey information. And while the current models do that a lot of the time, they don't do that all of the time because they don't and can't know the difference without essentially being a different thing. Because to do that consistently, we need an "understanding what things mean" model. Which is many orders of magnitude larger and more difficult than a text generator.
GP's point was that both "Everyone Prefers Women" and "Men Are Smarter" are equally "benevolent" and "malevolent" (depending on POV) and thus the adjective is "absurd" (meaningless).
I do think it kind of works that way. Take a look at who is affected by blatantly fake news. It’s the people that grew up in an era where there were just a few “legitimate” news sources. People who grew up with misinformation just laugh it off.

Not saying fake news has no effect on young people but it’s definitely a huge difference.

I think if you tried to do a similar breakdown of what it's like to design computer code in general it probably wouldn't help much either because there's rarely a rigid process - you're usually going by intuition to weigh up what's most productive to try next where the intuition was gained from experience vs jargon filled articles. I'm not sure why UI/UX design content is so thick with this kind of text in comparison though.
I've never been anywhere where I legitimately had signal but no data. When it seems to be connected buy isn't, sms mostly also won't go though. I also think there are less "remote" places in europe in general.

> Will better qualified police officers get hired with less funding?

The idea is that you remove half the police work load, hire half the officers, and use that savings to assign that removed work load to more appropriate people like social workers, unarmed traffic enforcement, etc.

Cost per officer doesn't have to change.
The banners have become more intrusive and obnoxious as the organisation has become richer. Ten years ago, they were quite mild by comparison. You wouldn't get ten reminders, the banners didn't cover your entire screen, and they didn't beseech you not to scroll away.

A couple of years ago a Wikimedia Foundation fundraising report explained why that "Don't scroll away" phrase was added:

------------

“Don’t Scroll Away”

A simple, yet effective phrase that we were surprised to see resonate with readers worldwide was simply asking readers not to “scroll away” from or “scroll past” the fundraising message in the banner. We believe that addressing the context in which people donate helps improve the donation rate.

I'm not sure that there is much of a technology jump to move into VR for Apple.
> I’m afraid if you were to defund some of those, like the DEA and ATF, they would just come after small time, lowest fruit criminals.

That's precisely what would happen. Look at what's become of the IRS. It's been systematically defunded, despite the fact that the government sees a huge return on investment when they spend dollars there. The IRS has stated publicly that they only go after middle and lower-class citizen offenders because they can't afford to investigate and prosecute the big corporations and oligarchs which are where the vast majority of tax fraud takes place (note: not avoidance, fraud). This is pretty clearly by design.
I've listened to the "combined" version on Spotify and it just doesn't have the same effect. I can distinctly remember having a "WOW" moment the very first time I tried to play all of the CDs together and certain tracks synced up together. I couldn't recreate it a second time though -- each attempt was a bit different.
You don't. But in the US I'm rarely in a place where I have no data but SMS still works. And Europe has more effective telecom service.
Syncler + Premiumize or Real Debris is fantastic and super easy to use. No server setup needed, you stream everything. Comes working out of the box and if you want to play with some settings it's in an easy settings menu.

Are those prices up to date? There are several shops in Brisbane AU that will sell drop in 12V batteris retail for 350USD per nominal kWh (about $320 per real kWh at 0.1C) including taxes. The occasional special is in the 250-300 range. Ebike batteries with higher current are in the 300-500 range.

They're highly unsuitable for an engine starter at that price though (1C BMS) and have no built in low-temperature monitoring. There are bigger systems with better safety features for about $400US/kWh available in europe and asia.

Also note that nominal capacity of a lead acid battery is often not usable capacity. I was assuming 50% DoD as usable daily capacity which may be pessimistic.
The main reason for the rocket failure is because it wasn't a rocket program. It was a jobs program. NASA actually does extremely well with its science missions, because they are actually science missions, and not jobs programs.
Wikipedia definitely has a gender problem. And a racial problem. And numerous cultural problems.

That they decided to highlight the gender problem first doesn't mean that Wikipedia thinks the other problems are ok as is.

I'm 100% certain that socializing with my coworkers was the key to my (eventual) large social circle when I moved abroad.

If anything, not socializing with coworkers would have probably left me destitute. A lot of my job upgrades involved former coworkers in some form.

To me, the MOTD is like a bulletin board where I expect messages from distro maintainers about updates and the like, and it doesn't seem like a huge deal for it to include self-promotion.

Injecting advertisements into the package manager, though, feels like a distinct level, even for self-promotion. And I am not a fan. :-\

From what the engineer explicitly details and according to your own logical rules that you laid out.. nothing was violated.

You're simply saying you believe the engineer is lying and dishonest. This is possible but there's nothing compelling about your assumption unless you provide evidence that supports it. Otherwise it's just sort of a random assumption.

I mean, Yeah sure, for example, I could assume that he also has anger issue problems that he's unaware about, but that's a random assumption... Why would anyone care? In short I'm saying what compelling evidence do you have to make your assumption more relevant?

The PC of 1981 offered so little immediate utility that the microcomputer press was desperately pushing "maybe housewives can archive their recipes" as a use case for personal computers.

Remember, it wasn't networked, and the I/O was limited to a crappy matrix printer at best. There was practically no software, and most professionals and managers didn't know how to type since that was a secretary's task.

The problem is that a lot of these problems are only solvable within the network. Sure, if you steal a bunch of Ethereum, there could be a piece of code to reverse that theft under some conditions. But if you've cashed out, there's nothing the code will do. The code is only law within the tiny walled garden they've built. So not only do you have to improve the code, but you either need to prevent people leaving this walled garden so you can enforce your rules, or you create rules outside of the walled garden - which are called laws and the entire reason crypto exists was to evade those laws in the first place.

That's why these hacks are so often associated with Bridges - because the bridges are the locations where two different sets of rules are in force and you can exploit the difference between them.
I know its anecdotal, but I grew up only having air channels (4 in total, all state-owned) that had crazy long ad-spaces, something like 15 minute intervals of _just_ ads, and 10 min of contents (series with 28 minute episodes had an hour of airtime here, half their runtime was ads). I completely filter them out, always have.

When I watch TV (seeing a boxing match, or a movie when at my in-laws' house), and an advertisement space is coming up, the TV magically turns much louder, blasting some jingle and colorful bursts, but I automatically stand up to go to the loo or get drinks or something.

With streaming services, it's something else entirely. I must skip them, I get this discomfort in me, an urge to make the obvious text-to-speech ad that was auto-generated to tick my keywords shut up immediately. I wonder if it is because its targeted to me directly, or if it is because I have the ability to make it shut up, that I get this boiling sensation in my head when they come up.

Still, I'd never pay for something like Spotify Premium or Youtube Premium just to get rid of them. Even if it were just a buck, I wouldn't do it.
So you are saying: "They don't put any effort into their infinitely more expensive product and they still sell it profitably." I really don't think that's an argument for the side you want it to be...
I would write to the author of `rip` and ask if you can take the project (including the memorable/cool name) over.

`rip` seems unmaintained (three open PRs from one to five years old). It has a name that doesn't clash with an existing *nix command and people seem to also ask for the same thing since its inception (see issue #3 from 2016).

That is fine with me, media is a completely nonessential part of life, and a seller can sell how they want and a buyer can choose to buy or not buy.

The great thing is the unnecessary middleman that used to restrict how sellers can sell is now out of the picture. Or in Comcast’s case, merged into one entity.

But that is a separate problem of government not designating fiber internet as a utility.
Maybe. But as someone who prioritizes what we build, no one asking for it is a pretty strong signal not to build it.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakthrough_Starshot#Laser_da..., the probes should be able to talk to a 30-meter telescope on earth using lasers. The data rates are very low, of course, but that can be handled by making sure the probe has enough storage for its few-hour-long transit of the system and then transmitting that back over the following months.

In a way, becoming allergic to the ads is the cure -- you need to immediately recognize the toxicity that stems from the emotional (rather than logical) appeals and the manipulative tactics companies use to undermine your own happiness and convince you to buy their products.

At this point I can't even go to a sports bar for a drink because being bombarded by that many ads is a legitimately stressful experience. If I'm visiting a family member who leaves the TV on in their living room, I ask if we can turn it off -- or mute it and leave the room. But I don't view these as problems: I'm recognizing a negative thing in my reality and trying to cut it out. I imagine it like a bug problem: I won't go to a bar where cockroaches are crawling all over the walls, or hang out in a room where a bunch of cockroaches are nesting in the corner. Ads are the same thing, but you have to be much vigilant to keep them out of your life because so many people have gotten used to them.

I hope folks start educating their kids at an early age to loathe ads. Middle schools and high schools ought to dissect ads in a dedicated (health?) class that showcases the manipulation tactics companies use to control viewers. But parents can do the same thing, knowing that school systems take literal centuries to adapt to new technology.
> You make it sound like it's a fad

Privacy is not a set concept.

If you had told my parents in their youth, that their kids would have a high likelihood of happily divulging big chunks of their private life to the world at large, as a matter of routine, they would quite literally not even have understood the concept, no matter in how much detail you would have explained all the steps leading up to that. Why would anyone want any of that?

I am building a small business in the medical field right now. People are real sensitive about their data – right until the point where they happily waive all privacy rights to push you to use WhatsApp for all sensitive communication, because, OF COURSE they'd want to use WhatsApp, what else, it's real convenient after all.

I've been playing with a language called Joy, created by Manfred von Thun, which seems to me to combine the best parts of Forth and Lisp while being simpler and more elegant than both. I suspect it might be the simplest useful language.

"A Conversation with Manfred von Thun" in Vector, journal of the British APL Association http://archive.vector.org.uk/art10000350

https://joypy.osdn.io/ (My own project) Here's a flowchart (SVG) for the interpreter loop: https://github.com/calroc/Thun/blob/simpler/joy_interpreter_...

It boils down to quotation as the primary operation, denoted by enclosing expressions in square brackets. Various combinators accept quotes on the stack and prepend (or not) one or more of them to the pending expression under evaluation (like Continuation-Passing Style), and that's it. That's the whole evaluation model.

E.g. "branch" combinator accepts a Boolean value and two quoted expressions and put one of them onto the pending expression based on the Boolean value:

true [ELSE] [THEN] branch
-------------------------------
THEN

false [ELSE] [THEN] branch
--------------------------------
ELSE

Anyway, I've been messing around with it for a few years now off-and-on and I really think it's "something", eh? (Like I'm almost willing to argue that it's status should be something like the other major models of computation: Turing Machine, Lambda Calculus, SKI Combinators, (Others? Wang Tiles?) ... I suspect Joy belongs on that list.)
