You can’t sideload NetworkExtension VPN apps on macOS, the entitlements for them to work are only distributed for App Store apps.

This is why you can’t download WireGuard from the WireGuard website. You have to identify yourself to Apple with an Apple ID (which requires a non-disposable email and working phone number) to download free privacy software.
I don't think anyone was arguing contrary to the idea that settlers had both the means and motive to conquer and subdue the natives.
I think where we disagree is whether there is a large enough demand for these non-physical games.

VR is selling bad enough as it is.

Having seen friends drop out of VR for various reasons, I believe that the main draw, more so than immersion and more so than social presence, _is_ the physical movement.

Oculus' top sellers list seems to confirm that belief.

I'm not denying that there is demand outside of exergames, but contrary to the articles clickbaity headline, they're not "the point".

Edit: *Currenty. This will change once VR becomes accessible and comfortable.
Show HN: Baytyab – (Re)discover couplets in classical Persian poetry
I created this website some time ago, but I don't think I ever shared it widely. Baytyab, besides being a palindrome in the Dari transliteration, roughly translates to "couplet-finder".

I've been learning Dari (and Pashto!) for most of my adult life as a second language, and classical poetry was always something that I had struggled with.

I thought that if I ever came across a word I didn't know when reading a poem, it would be great to throw that word into a search to find other couplets that use it to get a better "feel" for the meaning in the classical context without having to crack open a dictionary.

There is another mode I added that I like to use when playing an Afghan game with my wife called "baytjangi" (couplet-wars). In baytjangi, two people trade couplets, but your couplet has to begin with the last letter of the couplet the person you are playing with just shared. Obviously I'm not very good at this game so when I get stuck I like to just throw in the last word of the couplet my wife shared to get a couplet to allow us to keep going.

This was my first time writing a website in pure HTML + CSS, and also my first time writing an RTL website. It was a great learning experience and I'm still very proud of this today.
It has been 14 years since the bitcoin white paper, how long will we be in the early stages of crypto?

On unique use cases, maybe but I am convinced the vast majority of crypto usage today falls in 2 camps

1) those speculating to make a quick buck

2) believers who want crypto to work

Both of these camps are working against mass adoption.

1) because for a speculative investment to be successful it must go up, and who wants to spend a currency they think will go up? Remember that guy who bought pizza with his bitcoin? What an idiot right, he traded currency for food?!?

2) the believers hold decentralization as above all else and see crypto as much a political tool as a product, they will sacrifice efficiency and convenience for this, the majority of people in the world won’t.
I mean, I know they cite Wikipedia, but that's just a straight-up scrape of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_Engineering_Body_of_K... except in this rip-off it mysteriously chooses to omit Software requirements from the hyperlinks. What is the objective of this site?

Good call on Sour Grapes though. I had thought you meant that one. I also reallllly enjoyed it!
> But the entire point of VR is the controllers, not the headset

Not to be rude, but have you used modern VR systems much? The above sounds exactly the opposite of what it's all about.
You can't ask people in 2022 to upload their own face to your site, you don't even have a privacy policy, not that it would help much. Come on man.

This was the use case I had in mind. My company generates exports that are either PDF or PNG/JPEG images from the DOM using Puppeteer. We really wanted to support SVG but every option we explored had pretty significant rendering issues, meaning an entire rewrite in SVG would have been required.
> 1. I can articulate precisely what problem I am trying to solve.

> 6. I have a Plan B in case my solution to my current problem doesn’t work.

> 9. I can clearly articulate unknowns and risks associated with my current problem.

These rules imply one of 3 things about the author:

* That author only encounters problems that have been fully solved before

* The manager gives zero weight or value to discovery

* The manager expects the whole project to have been fully specified before starting

Yikes, that's toxic! I think it's important that engineers have the mindset of understanding the problem, but that means that figuring out the problem is part of the work! Which then means that engineers should definitely have periods where they don't understand the problem, where they don't have a Plan B yet, and don't know what the unknowns are, because they can't know what the solution will be until they've started the work.
You’re absolutely right. To me this is an argument that we need much more standardization and fine-grained details about “comfort level”, and control options.

Many games seem to implement motion and interaction controls internally, which is great for experimentation. But for many games, that isn’t the main point. In those, the user could instead select one of their own personal control schemes. Maybe some of those control schemes could even be extensible, for games that want a familiar UI, but also want to experiment a bit.
It's a really interesting point. I've had to go through quite a bit of trouble to get non-keyboard HID devices (like Yubikeys) "un-Dvoraked" so that they work as expected.

"not that it would help much" -- Any ideas on what would help much?
Feed the chaganaut!
I guess that's inspired by the famous "plan to throw one away (because you will, anyway), from Freed Brooks if I remember correctly.

IMHO it makes sense if Plan B is much simpler, but not as efficient as Plan A (remember, this is a game developer, everything is about efficiency). You build Plan B is a prototype, and could still fall back on it (and iterate on it) if Plan A fails.

If Plan B is more complicated than Plan A, doing it first sounds... dumb.
Just the mere fact that they intentionally chose an overtly political focus indicates poor judgment and misplaced priorities --- not the sort of people I would choose to do business with.
That elephant from a different angle: adults that grew old staring at glowing rectangles and are now highly resistant to change of any sort. At one point people thought that was stupid, too. What if future change comes mostly from your generation fading into irrelevance and dying off?
Actually, the best protest of Saudi Arabia was carried out by Mayoshi Son of SoftBank. He working with such people as Adam Neumann of WeWork lit billions of dollars worth of Saudi money on fire. A few more years of this, and Saudi won't be able to afford to do stunts like this.

Yet this case had zero evidence other than a coerced confession. There was 100% (of zero) evidence available. The original judge and jury had nothing to go on but the confession.
I was confusing them, and I agree with your assessment. Thank you.

Anyone who has a spouse or children should also consider that in the very unlucky event the worst happens and a divorce or child support or alimony order is ordered while working for a FAANG, the judge may consider your FAANG income as your 'imputed income' in the future so taking a lower-stress job may not incur recomputing of your support orders. That is, your choice may look something like "grind at FAANGs forever" or wither in jail and/or always on the edge of bankruptcy. That's enough to scare the shit out of me from working at this double+ salary high-stress jobs.

This is not legal advice, IANAL.
>Continental (French/German) philosophy seems to just lean into it and can be nearly unreadable; some of this is translation issues, some people say this is because their points are so deep they can't be expressed in clear language, and some people say this is because French people don't respect philosophers unless they don't understand what they're talking about.

Considering much of continental philosophy is a response to Kant and/or Hegel, I don't know how you're able to convince yourself of this rather reductionist take on the history of that conversation (because this isn't even close to fair) unless you've never read Kant or Hegel, and don't understand why it would follow that the way one writes is implicated by the conclusions of Kant/Hegel.

This goes as far back as Nietzsche, who never stops talking about why form/content divide is completely misleading and a historical artifact itself, some examples off the top of my head, paraphrased, like "The Greeks thought Socrates was refuted by his ugliness"; "Spinoza purposely writes in a style to make you think his argument is mathematically irrefutable, as if it were dipped in bronze", "naming things is the first form of political power", etc, etc. This theme carries threw from his first book to his last.

There's more to this story when you get to the likes of Heiddeger, Derrida, Foucault, etc so I'm condensing for brevity, but its just strange to me that you approach continental philosophy as some arbitrary veering off course when there's a well-vetted history as to why it takes such form over time. You're not actually making some argument from first principles (the conduction of philosophical discourse looks like this...") nor are you demonstrating an exhaustive accounting of European philosophy, you're merely demonstrating you've already made a certain philosophical commitment, and that's that.
....what? How do you read what they wrote and come up with that question?
I wish you would edit your comment to indicate that the country of Pakistan is not a s-hole but the current government is and possibly also the fanatical religious culture is.
Learning to read is a lot harder for deaf people, yes. For deaf people sign language is their native language, not the spoken equivalent, so imagine speaking one language and having to learn to read another.
I belong to 120 person food co-op. Its operated out of the basement of house since the 80s. We're a different model than described here, its a hybrid of a buying club and a grocery store. All of the labor is unpaid, you must be a member to shop, it has limited official open hours but everyone gets a key and can shop themselves whenever they like. Most people pay a 20% markup on goods but people that have extra responsibility pay less.
Does that include education (uni/boot camp)? Because honestly I think unless you went to a school in a tech hub city, they didn’t teach you everything you need to know about CS.

Have you read the seminal literature (the thing they didn’t teach you in ugrad)? Gang of Four OOP design patterns, Patterns of enterprise architecture?

You might ask your employer for a subscription to O’reilly books online.

I don't particularly like vim keybindings - actually the very fact that they become so much of a consuming hobby for many people speaks to me of real problems with them. But their availability in so many tools aside from vim/nvim makes them very practical, given things as they are. It's a bit like QWERTY. Ubiquitious presence can be more practically useful than intrinsic advantages.
Many deaf people can read. But, people often find it easier to communicate in their first language. ASL is not English, it's a different language.
The fact you think half of the things you listed Republicans are doing are either fascist or fascist adjacent shows why this is such a bad idea. Most of those things are things every ruling party does or aren't fascist.

Not to mention, just calling Brazil, Italy and whoever else potentially fascist is ridiculous.

Fascism has no meaning anymore because people like you. If you want to actually fight against fascism don't call everybody fascists.
I too miss the good old days where the information you wanted was buried somewhere in a 100 page phpBB thread and you had to manually search through it 1 page at a time, with each one-line comment taking up half the page with avatars and signatures.

Good times. Sad that things have moved on to systems that don't suck quite so much but that's progress for you.
Sure, but we're not talking about salary cuts or a shared-success model as the only possible alternative. Why not just do away with equity compensation or bonuses entirely, and pay people more?

(I mean, I know why; equity compensation is a much cheaper way for a company to compensate employees than extra salary or even bonuses.)

I think shared-success is a fair model (regardless of whether or not it's good for morale or productivity) when the company is small enough where you can at least somewhat understand how an individual employee's work contributes directly to revenue. But companies grow past that point, sometimes quickly.

Having said that, I think I made out very well with equity comp at my last company, much much better than I would have done if there was no equity comp, and we all just had higher salaries. But I think that outcome isn't common, especially when you only consider employees in non-executive positions.
Have you reported the bug? If not, please do. Things won't get fixed without people actually helping with the experience.

I am in the same boat with a gfx03 card. What patch did you use? The ones here? https://github.com/xuhuisheng/rocm-build

I also tried to compile pytorch with its Vulkan backend, but ended throwing the towel as LDFLAGS are a mess to get right (I successfully compiled it, but that was only part of the build chain, and decided I had better things to spend time on). I wonder how that would perform; ncnn works pretty decently.

Part of the problem here I think is the author is focusing on more metaverse style VR and also experiences that are more "documentary" like (as in watching a sports game) vs actual VR games. In my opinion VR is amazing for lots of video games (like a shooter or a flying space game) and the technology has seen tons and tons of development here. It is fairly mature (although takes a fast PC still) and attracts high end developers and artists. A project like "Poker Stars VR" is probably not very attractive to top end 3D artists and VR developers because it is kind of a boring use of VR. People want to work on cool stuff.

In my opinion what we really need is the metaverse but for hackers. A bunch of business suits meeting in real life or VR will always be boring and sterile. But a place that has the magic of early IRC where a group of whitehats and blackhats anonymously can meet virtually? That could be pretty damn cool and result in some whacky crazy avatars and out of the box environments. Imagine a completely P2P capable hackerverse that mashed together something like Mr. Robot and A Scanner Darkly and your friend shows up looking like a cybernetic android dolphin. You won't see the suits Hug in VR - they're all about Handshakes ;-)
> It's an odd feature of aerospace history that many prototype aircraft that never went into production become "cultplanes". Some prominent examples are flying wings, Avro Arrow, B-70 Valkyrie, anything designed by the Nazis in 1945.

I don't care about the other planes on the list, but the B-70 Valkyrie absolutely deserves to be a cult plane.

It is one of the most visually striking and beautiful planes ever built. Combine that with an absolutely insane performance characteristics and engineering, and you can see why it is a cult plane.

Sounds too good to be true, you don't mention cost anywhere. You can't scale this without paying interpreters. I dare say, you won't have a 48-hour turnaround on movie-length content either, without a low bar for quality.
It’s more that English isn’t necessarily their native language, at least if born deaf. ASL is not signed English, it’s roots are French, and as far as I understand that wouldn’t make French their native language either. ASL is their native language, and it has no written form (afaik).
Until I see ads when using uBO, I don't have a reason to change. And I don't see ads.
Good question, and I don't think my answer will satisfy your needs, but it does mine.

The only long form text that I ever write is in markdown.
I do miss the `gq` command from vim, but in general I just do a single line break after every dot.
Markdown ignores a single line break in the middle of a paragraph, so it works out okay.
I even found it almost convenient to edit text like that because it's easy to move lines around.

In code documentation (which I do a lot of), I have to manually wrap the lines of course (just like anyone else). That's where I miss `gq` the most. :)
That’s not really what I associate with EA?

With Nick Land, maybe, yeah, I guess.

Honestly it reminds me most of how some people try to spin Bitcoin’s power use as a good thing.

The comment does have some similarity to a point which I think reasonable, but doesn’t quite capture the thing.

Specifically, it questions happiness as a goal. This, I think, has something to it, but not quite in the way they said. For an individual who is neither unhappy nor “feeling nothing”, “being happy” is, I think, a questionable goal, as I think it puts things backwards.

But, valuing others being happy, is, I think, very often a rather good heuristic, as “things that make someone happy” are often “things that benefit them” (though not always. Non-voluntarily chemically inducing a euphoria in someone, doesn’t benefit them. ) .
Looking at “how happy and satisfied are people generally” is a pretty decent heuristic for estimating how well things are going for people overall, though this heuristic can be goodharted.

Perhaps somewhat better than “how happy are you” would be “how well are things going for you? How much do the general states of affairs align with your preferences, and how is the rate of change of the degree to which the general state of affairs aligns with your preferences? How’s it going?”.

This combination of things is, I think, closer to what we should ideally want for each-other than “happiness”, but, “happiness” is still a pretty good approximation in most reasonable circumstances.

(It is best to avoid the unreasonable circumstances where it ceases to be a good approximation)

Anti-fraud in cash is limited to authenticity, something that any half decent crypto currency can accommodate as a fundamental.

There is no conceptual reason why a distributed cryptographic currency could not take the place of cash for in person transactions. In realty crypto has many other issues, but not this one.
I'm not an insider to the medical care industry, but I have plenty of friends and family who have worked there, and that is what I've heard from them over many years. Certainly, there is a lot of variation in quality within every segment of that industry. Perhaps the idea I have picked up is that managed care implies managed costs which implies fewer options and opportunities to obtain better than common-denominator results. Just the process of maintaining good relationships over many years with good physicians, together with knowing that they are not operating under onerous productivity constraints, and that they care about me and will act accordingly, has helped me maintain a positive attitude, a physically active lifestyle, and willingness to persist in doing my part of the process of staying alive.
Interesting. I haven't actually used concepts yet. Kind of sounds like type hints for generics, in the same way that type hints for e.g. Python are very best-effort rather than actually sound.
There is tons of stuff out there. Its a thing in construction that you dont have to worry about anything archaeological below X feet because X represents the lowest we have found human remains(Clovis). But everybody involved with digging has stories about finding stuff way below that layer. And they just cover it up because nobody wants the job to be stopped.

I love the concept of a CSA. We've tried it a few times. It's such a great idea and I want these things to succeed. For us, we canceled after a few weeks each time because the ones we joined were all setup similarly: once every week or so, you get a bag of food, whatever's in season. That leaves us having to figure out what to do with all this stuff we don't normally cook and don't have recipes for, and that the kids aren't used to eating. These are all solvable problems but I guess there was too much friction in adapting our lives to it. I'm not sure if it's actually easier to make shopping lists and drive to the store to buy exactly what we need, but it's what we were used to.
Watching the video, they mention that in order for the red team to reach their goal (downloading Google Glass schematics), they had to pivot from the users they compromised with the plasma globe (who were not working on the Glass project) to users on the Glass team. They seemingly did that using an image attached to an email that executed its payload when the email was opened. They didn't elaborate what the payload did, but mentioned that it "captured the user's fingerprint" and enabled them to use that to access the Glass schematics.

Although it sounds much less exciting, this sounds like a much more serious exploit than a compromised USB plasma globe - embedded in an image and requiring minimal user interaction to execute. I wonder whether they identified a novel 0day in a common image parser or something.
Also probably fewer people in the comments telling you your art project that breaks eggs whenever the stock market falls is "stupid and gay".
