If the split so nicely mirrored political boundaries we wouldn't be having this discussion. We're having this discussion because incompatible ideologies are fighting for control of one country.
I don't think it's this simple. RCS is implemented by carriers and is a feature of mobile service like SMS. It has a qualification/accreditation process. iMessage is an internet service.

If I were Apple, I would not budge.

I haven't used iMessage, so I don't know how it behaves, but my own personal RCS experience has not been good. I am on Google Fi and make heavy use of Google Messages and specifically their web app. I have a Pixel 4a 5G - a good mid range phone. Three Messages configurations are available: regular SMS/MMS, RCS (i.e. Enable Chat Features), or SMS/MMS routed through Fi; RCS is not available if you route through Fi!

I have a couple of really long message histories, and with RCS enabled, it got to the point that I could not keep the web app connected with the phone, open chats, or in some cases see/respond to messages; I'd try to send a message and it would sit at 'sending' for 5 minutes or more, making it very difficult to have an actual conversation with someone. Turn RCS off, and the send/receive delay disappears. Route through Fi as well, and the web app works a lot better and it doesn't get stuck opening conversations.

As another commenter pointed out, it's probably better to use an actual chat application instead of Messages for this. But that's not what I use :shrug:. And my experience, on my phone, is that RCS is not usable at all, and I'm just on SMS/MMS as a result.
Apparently adding a new member to a group text with an android user is a much less pleasant experience than if everyone is on imessage. I'm the android user causing problems so I dont really know the details :P But honestly that the guy singled out the "one android user" who was making his life difficult was disconerting to say the least.

I almost always have my phone on silent for that reason. I like to check my phone when I want to, not when it wants me to.
This sounds like the best you could possibly do!

It seems like that was your point
By wafer doesn't sound like the correct comparison as we mostly care about top nodes for this. Revenue actually sounds better to correct for that. Your link also shows that Intel sells their old nodes to others further skewing the per-wafer comparison.

Wafers at 14nm or better would probably be a good metric for who has the volume behind top nodes to then be able to stay in front. If that's TSMC by a large margin losing the mobile and GPU markets has really done a bigger number on Intel than I had assumed before.
I think if I was in law school and I was being told about these defamation laws and the potential for someone to be sued out of virtually their entire wealth, that would not have sat well with me. But here we are, and Alex Jones' antics prove to be an excellent rejoinder to those doubts.

Still however, I wish the laws were more selective about which funds are ripe for being taken from. E.g., Alex Jones should have to pay up for money that was made from the source of the problem (the podcasts in this case), if he had, say, funds attained from a side-business of roofing, those should be untouched. And if he continues with his roofing business, maybe we shouldn't be taking all of those funds. Otherwise, I fear we are really just erecting disincentives for them to be good and upstanding contributors to society. As losing defendants of these battles are likely to be a perilous group, the issue probably deserves more careful handling. What are your thoughts?
But then it will end up in the atmosphere again shortly after. I think the idea is to achieve a reduction in CO2. However, is there a process that sucks out CO2 more effectively than trees doing photosynthesis?
I recently unplugged an nvidia card from a machine because of kernel panics with the nouveau driver.

Of course I can install the proprietary one, but that means I can no longer just upgrade the system and expect it to work after reboot.
This is reductive thinking under the guise of "objectivity" imo.

What does "complex" even mean here? How do you measure it or quantify it? You can't - and then your "objective" house of cards comes tumbling down. You can't correlate anything with hand waves.

GHC is doing fine. I say this as someone more tuned into it than you. Moralizing and catastrophizing about this bug is a waste of everyone's time. The bug is fixed, the process inefficiencies that contributed to it happening are being corrected. It's software development 101.
Jones is already back on his show deriding the victims, saying he won't pay, and soliciting money. Given his conspiratorial bent and the type of people who support him, I wouldn't be surprised if this doesn't hurt him as much as you'd think, because it reinforces their world view and will make them double down even further. Even if he ends up paying out substantial amounts, which would take years, I think he'll be just fine. The only thing that would really take him out would be if he went to jail for fraud or something.
The article name-checks IJ, but they have a separate projectional language workbench: https://github.com/JetBrains/MPS#readme

Yes, this is a massive pain.
The thread here seems like a dumpster fire to me. Everyone here is worrying about lock-in to an open standard, so I want to clarify things.

WebAuthn is an open standard. It's a way for you to prove to a website that you have a specific private key. There's no lock-in, because the key is portable (unless you don't want it to be). There's no privacy issue, because the key is unique per website. There's no security issue, because it's unphishable and can be unstealable if it's in hardware.

If you don't like Google or Apple, use your favorite password manager. All it will have to keep is a private key per website, and you're done. No usernames or passwords. You visit a site and are automatically logged in with a browser prompt.

This is amazing, it's the best thing that's ever happened to authentication. It's something the end user cannot have stolen. Can we be a bit more excited about it?

EDIT: If you want to try it, I just verified that https://www.pastery.net/ works great with Passkeys even though I haven't touched the code in a year.

That means that django-webauthin also works great with Passkeys, for you Django users:

https://pypi.org/project/django-webauthin/

Also, the latest Firefox on Android seems to work great.

Framing a belief can matter when it is first presented to a person. For example think about the phrases "reproductive rights" vs. "baby killing" or "estate tax" vs. "death tax". If you are first being introduced to these concepts, it matters how it is framed to you when you first start forming your opinions or beliefs about the idea.

To be fair, I don't think Apple has opened up iMessage either, otherwise this problem would have solved itself already with a third-party app.

With all due respect, I don't know what I could possibly point you to. Rust is just a better language than C or C++. It eliminates many classes of bugs that are pervasive in those two languages. It's a true 10x advancement over mainstream languages of the past. It also has been getting plenty of traction all across the industry, from Facebook and Amazon to small startups and open source projects like the Linux kernel.
That's true, but are TVs and comics in your pocket or beside your bed 24/7 like phones? Are they computers that also directly attach you to several friends, family, acquaintances, and strangers instantaneously across several avenues? Do they notify you that you are "missing" something? I don't think there's any example in human history of things that have garnered the daily and sustained use of human attention more than smartphones, tablets, and the Internet.

There is the book The Shallows: What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains by Nicholas Carr that covers this stuff and points to research.

There's also the Wall Street Journal article by him called Does the Internet Make You Dumber?.

> Is this because they're really that good or due to schools controlling the situation by banning (or otherwise not supporting) other highly capable calculators?

It's the latter, but note that it's because of the College Board, not any individual schools. It's basically impossible to launch a competing calculator since there's a whitelist of calculators for the standardized tests (https://apstudents.collegeboard.org/exam-policies-guidelines...), and students will want to use one of them all the time to be familiar with it for the tests. And if you do manage to get the College Board to deem your calculator worthy, you'll have to basically make your product as bad as TI's (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28344087). And it's even worse for foreign countries' equivalents to the College Board, e.g., in Portugal, where it's literally a requirement that they can't be open source: https://www.reddit.com/r/freesoftware/comments/vgiwk2/calcul...
Would be nice if they had some wide integer primitives instead, like a u128. That would be nice.

For me it sort of fell on my lap as I wasn't really going out of my way to find a remote job. I was just in need of more work. It was 2013 and was still using Craigslist for job hunting, mind you. I was looking for a better opportunity as I was "benched" a lot with an agency that didn't provide constant weekly work.

The key was probably that they were a small startup with some degree of desperation because they were ghosted by a previous developer and needed a replacement quick. I also had fit the tech skills they needed (experience in a particular PHP framework, CodeIgniter). The founder was pretty flexible and forward thinking, as, probably from being a former developer himself, let all his developers work remote. The pay wasn't that good but the work was comfortable and got me familiar with web app development in a company that actually uses their tech product to make money for them.
Boox Note Air or Nova 2. Nova 2 is more for books at 7.8" but can PDFs in a pinch. They are eInk but run Android and can run the Play Store. The built in PDF reader is good, ePub is ok.

> Short of a rocket engine, the way to accelerate beyond 1g with a wheeled vehicle is to have a downforce fan.

This electric vehicle is accelerating to 100kph (~28 m/s) in less than 1.5 seconds, which is an average acceleration of about 2g, if I am not mistaken.

Looking around, I have seen 4.0 given as a representative friction coefficient for drag racing tires, which would imply a corresponding peak acceleration of 4g without aerodynamic assistance (again, if I am not mistaken.)

Which seems to indicate that his end game is to hope for the broader political winds to shift so radically rightward that this judgement against him is somehow unenforceable, perhaps because the very enforcement apparatus has been destroyed by that shift.

You know why they wanted to differentiate iMessage? It caused issues with SMS. They knew it. They wanted an easy out for the incompatibilities. It is a problem with the "plebs" not Apple. The "plebs" were just holding their phones wrong. After all, even iPhone users don't know how to hold their phone. How can "plebs" be expected to know how to hold their phones if iPhone user can't?

Apple could fix this if they wanted to, but they don't want to. They know it sells phones. It is intentional.
Float16s are useful in ML and compute workloads where they make it possible to double the throughput of vector based instructions (SIMD in CPUs / GPUs) at the cost of a lower precision which can be acceptable for many such workloads.

Those are individuals who should be tried independently of Jones. By that standard, anybody who goes and commits a crime because of song lyrics should find the artist tried as an accomplice.

It's not "walking on eggshells," it's a matter of legal accuracy. You may not like it, but it's important for maintaining a fair courts system (without which, we forfeit a civil society and revert to tribalism).

I'm going from memory, but I have looked into the actual definition of a monopoly in the context of anti-trust. If I recall correctly, it doesn't even explicitly say that you need a market majority. It basically says that if you have undue market influence and power and use it then you have a monopoly. A market majority is simply one of the most common ways that that is attained. Again, that is from memory. I'd have to search for the language again to be sure.

Like you point out though with it being tested in court, maybe precedence is strong. Those laws and definitions were written a long time ago. Today's companies like Google, Apple, Facebook, and Amazon are very different from companies of yesteryear.

So far no part of the argument you've presented has had anything to do with US defamation law, just for what it's worth. If you're trying to be persuasive, that might be the part of your argument you should opt to shore up. In the alternative, you could adopt the somewhat more popular strategy of "the entire edifice of US defamation law is incongruous with the Constitution and should be thrown out". That argument is wrong too, but it'll get you farther.

later edit; I wrote the following I think as the reply below was being written

If you watched the Texas Jones trial, you saw the jury be instructed in some detail on what forms of damage they could and could not attribute to Jones. But you can also just look this up; there's no shortage of documents on the Internet that lay out the procedure for attributing damages to a proven case of defamation.

Long story short: if you damage somebody's reputation with false statements and, following causally from that damage, they suffer losses because lunatics start harassing them on the street, you are in fact liable for those losses.

You realize you can have multiple devices for Passkeys, right?

It’s webauthn. Which means you can have one or more of the following, in any mix you wish: yubikey, iPhone, Android device, password manager that has said they’ll support this (1Password, Bitwarden, Dashlane, and probably more).

Password managers will sync the private keys between devices as well. So, as long as you can access your password manager you should be able to use that.
Before you comment with "So you want us to write everything ourselves?", make sure you read the paragraph that starts with "Many people will argue that not using a framework means write everything yourself. This is a false dichotomy."

This seems depressingly common by Big Tech these days: appeals you can initiate yourself are shams (if you're even lucky enough to get a real person to look at it at all, they probably won't have the authority to reverse anything beyond the most obvious clerical errors), and the only way to get a real appeal is to use a back-channel like having a friend who works for them, trending on social media, or getting the press involved.

You don't have to be a wine snob to realize this is false. If the world's so full of fantastic cheap wine, it should be easy to find it. But try most of the bottles sub-$20 in most of the USA and they will be crap.

Moreover, if you are a winemaker and you know you have a flavor bomb on your hands, why would you only charge $15 for it when you can charge $25? These are businesspeople, not idiots or philanthropists.
There’s criteria for defamation. Jones likely met them, but it didn’t matter here because he lost by default in the trial due to his overwhelming failure to engage with the legal system in his own defense.

If an artist published songs with lyrics that met the criteria for defamation, and then people heard the song and committed crimes, the artist would be liable for defamation and the listeners who committed crimes would be guilty of those crimes (notably, defamation is civil, not criminal).

If you’re curious what constitutes defamation, it’s not a complex list: https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/defamation .

I thought this was funny when I went to work in Korea for a year, as an American, with a bunch of other Americans; all of us stationed there in the military. Upon arrival, the other Americans immediately told me: "You need to get Kakao. It's how you text in Korea." I complied, but I often made the point that it was just another mobile app that they could install and use even back in the United States, and something like Hangouts would work just as well in Korea. When I moved back to the United States, I kept using Kakao to stay in touch with some of my old co-workers who were still in Korea, and this blew their minds, including some people who were otherwise quite tech savvy.

Note that I don't think many of us were using Kakao to talk with native Koreans, which would be a good reason for using it. Honestly, we didn't mix much. Nearly everybody on my contact list was an American.
