Hi, I'm the author of the cmdr2 UI and installer (that iFire linked to). I'd be happy to contribute the 1-click installer used by my project. It's a battle-hardened installer (over 100k installations on all kinds of PCs and networks), and I'm finishing up a rewrite in python, so that the installer code is easier to maintain for others.

I'd be happy to submit a PR to your project, if you're interested in using it. I actually got it working with your project a few weeks ago, so I know it works with your repo.

I've opened a github issue as well, so we can talk there if you'd like: https://github.com/invoke-ai/InvokeAI/issues/1042
Many build tools write caches to hidden folders in the home directory. You can see them with ls -a.

e.g. .npm, .sbt, .gradle, .cargo etc.

The compilation result of the code is often in the root directory of the project, such as maven, the sbt project will be written to the target directory, and the cargo project will be written to the build directory.

The cache files mentioned above cannot be scanned and cleaned by CleanMyMac.
Say this could be mass produced. What are the beachhead markets? What are the moneymakers?
Everyone has different experiences, my path was admittedly much easier than many other people.

I haven't had any alcohol in about 2 months. Prior I was consuming 1-3 drinks per week, almost exclusively beer, and almost never 3 drinks in a day. I got sick with COVID, found a podcast episode talking about the effects of alcohol and thought I'd give it a listen. [1]

The long and short of it is that alcohol is harmful to a laundry list of biological processes, and any minor benefits that might exist are absolutely dwarfed by the negatives. I wanted to feel as good as I could as fast as I could, so I haven't had alcohol since. Even my minimal consumption was affecting my sleep quality more than I realized.

I found the podcast to appeal to the logical side of me. If you made an honest list of pros and cons to consuming alcohol and were given the choice to have a drink after being raised without any exposure, you would say "why would anyone drink that stuff?", yet regular consumption of alcohol is deeply engrained in our society.

Right now I'm not drinking at all. I've been offered many times and heavily pressured a few. Alcohol hasn't been an issue for me, but it makes me feel awful for people who are battling alcoholism.

i got covid - and then murderous acid reflux which i'm on medication for. I used to have a beer after work (just one) nearly every day. Since June - i've not drank once until i got over covid (2 months later). Here we are nearly 4 months later and a single drink just feels aweful to me now. The liquid just sits in my stomach taking up room like it's not supposed to be there, and i'm getting no joy from it whatsoever. My night is pretty much ruined now if I do have a single drink, and reflux gets worse too.

It looks like this was happening because the book is too far down the list on that site so the algorithm assumes its unimportant. I'm improving the algorithm now to account for these cases.

You'd prefer to create excess misery to satisfy a sense of vengeance? Versus just solving the problem?
There's a solitary joy to a nice car meal. I'm not afraid of people, but I like the privacy of having a meal in my own car versus a fast food restaurant's dining room (doubly so since COVID).

On one hand I believe the theoretical patent is very important to promote innovation. If you, the inventor, can get guarantees on your sales for 10 years (which is reasonable, imo) then it'll encourage people to make more stuff. I don't think patents are wrong.

However, the way patents are filed is wrong. There's so many issues with first to file. It's a good system when your office sees 100 patents a year. All of them are likely to be novel, and likely to be made by independent inventors. The problem we have now is there are entire companies (IBM, Google, RAND, TI, etc) that exist solely to farm patents. In fact, there are so many patent farms disguised as businesses I challenge you to sit, think of something, and search for a patent for it. I guarantee you one exists. Moreover, pursue the patent office if you never have. The definition of invention, especially in tech, is so vague it may as well not exist. Vomit some smart sounding stuff on paper with drawings and you've got yourself a patent that, if written correctly, will almost certainly produce a profit. Hell, take a cat and draw a stereo speaker on top of it. Call it "animal sound machine". I guarantee you if it hasn't already been done someone will do it. Better, draw a cat with a USB stick duct taped to it and call it "IP over Feline". Devise a stupid protocol. Then sue every idiot who thought it'd be funny to make one. This is seriously how lame modern patent law is. You might even be infringing on a patent with IP over Feline because someone already "invented" transportable storage.

I don't have a solution to the problem. Part of me wants to say one patent, per inventor, per term (10 years). You have the option of canceling a patent to put a new one in. But this seems like it's too strong. Maybe there's another way that legitimate inventors for an appropriate amount of time, and also disincentivizes patent trolls through some measure. Maybe we could start with "common good" patents (as determined by a board of smart people) being invalidated.
No just regular right wing fascism with majority rule and violence and disenfranchisement of minorities.
Honestly? They are doing something “productive” over the weekend but may be burning themselves out or won’t experience the good parts of parenting that weekend.

Don’t mean to put down those who don’t have kids - like myself - but I’m sure the grass seems greener elsewhere, especially when you’re tired.
They probably watched it just for the layout of the B-52 which was classified at the time. IIRC, Kubrick was worried about being investigated by the FBI! From the wiki that quotes a DVD special,

> Lacking cooperation from the Pentagon in the making of the film, the set designers reconstructed the aircraft cockpit to the best of their ability by comparing the cockpit of a B-29 Superfortress and a single photograph of the cockpit of a B-52 and relating this to the geometry of the B-52's fuselage. The B-52 was state-of-the-art in the 1960s, and its cockpit was off-limits to the film crew. When some United States Air Force personnel were invited to view the reconstructed B-52 cockpit, they said that "it was absolutely correct, even to the little black box which was the CRM."[17] It was so accurate that Kubrick was concerned about whether Adam's team had carried out all its research legally.[17]

The Soviet doomsday device was actually made known to the US too, just like the movie, it was the Dead Hand, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Hand

From the designer,

> It was designed to lie semi-dormant until switched on by a high official in a crisis. Then it would begin monitoring a network of seismic, radiation, and air pressure sensors for signs of nuclear explosions. Before launching any retaliatory strike, the system had to check off four if/then propositions: If it was turned on, then it would try to determine that a nuclear weapon had hit Soviet soil. If it seemed that one had, the system would check to see if any communication links to the war room of the Soviet General Staff remained. If they did, and if some amount of time—likely ranging from 15 minutes to an hour—passed without further indications of attack, the machine would assume officials were still living who could order the counterattack and shut down. But if the line to the General Staff went dead, then Perimeter would infer that apocalypse had arrived. It would immediately transfer launch authority to whoever was manning the system at that moment deep inside a protected bunker—bypassing layers and layers of normal command authority.[12]
They only advance it when the US President is a Republican.
That’s for sure, I’m still pretty sure I couldn’t figure out a foolproof way to draw giant figures.

Fascism has a lot of mean, you trying to minimize it doesn’t change anything. The silver lining is the fascists in power are failing fast, hopefully before we fully end up in the fascist endgame of all out war.
Stay away from bars.

Stay away from friends who drink.

Turn off any and every advertisement about drinking.

Drink lots of water, juice, and coconut water. Edit: I would avoid soda, but seltzer water and flavor is fine.

Donate the equivalent amount of drinking money to charities.

Remember this: your life is cursed once if you drink. It's cursed twice if you pass it to others. And three times if you make drinks. Keep your life uncursed.
That explains why my former employee had signs of a crossed through Bento in their bathrooms (here in Tokyo). The sign also said to refrain from napping or using your phone in the restroom. How exactly they found out what people do in the stalls remains a mystery.

According to my former coworkers, hiding away in bathrooms is endemic in ブラック companies. The company I worked for was a game company, so they also had nap rooms for the inevitable crunch time.

If you are looking for a job in Tokyo, watch out for nap rooms and bathroom signs that says no food.
Log4J was not a case of "simple" deserialization. The feature that caused the vulnerability was designed for remote execution of code. For this reason I called it out explicitly as an exception.

Vulnerabilities in the serialization library are a separate class of bug. This gitlab bug wasn't a serialization vulnerability, it was a flawed assumption about the structure of the data. The serializer did its job just fine.

In the case of Jackson's @class tagging, the key thing is that Java will still force you to think about the type. If you expect the `id` field to be an integer, you'll have to eventually cast Object to the class that you think you have, and that cast will fail if you got something else instead. There's no way for a redis command to make its way into an int field.
Sounds like you don’t drink much at all already and you dislike being a little drunk. That shouldn’t be too hard to stop altogether.

Mostly it’s about having other options. On the weekends when you crave for drinks, try mixing complex virgin cocktails. They’ll probably bring the same kind of guilty pleasure you’re after, without the drunkenness. You can also get into tea or herbal stuff.
Just get into something else that requires you to pay attention to what you’re drinking.
Meanwhile on some UIs, I can click buttons after they're drawn and they do nothing unless you wait for half a second or more.

We have .NET Framework (Windows only), Wails (Golang + JS), Tauri (Rust + JS), Electron (JS), Flutter (Dart), just to name a few.
My main concern with all these technologies is which one should I use?
Many of these tools rely on JS. Despite the fact that JS has many flaws, I do not like the idea of using JS (Vue, React, etc) for the UI. I rather prefer to do both backend and frontend using the same language.

I would like to use a tool like Tauri or Wails that relies on Python and that let me choose the underlying framework (Django, Flask, etc).
That will be great for packaging a web application as an executable.
Tried VR gaming via a warehouse-based company. https://zerolatencyvr.com/

Even with a warehouse, it was obvious that a lot of levels started with you having to turn around as you'd hit the end of usable space.

So even warehouses are not going to cut it.

But I disagree with your "2 minutely different screens" point. I see VR as being like Surround Sound. Yeah, you can play music and watch movies with mono or stereo audio - but the immersivity does add significantly to the experience.
Machine Learning models must also think about trusting trust
After so many years that idea should be laughed at at court. Patents are one thing but waiting for your "free" codec to gain usage across the world only then to reap the benefits should be called fraud.
It is so you don't have to trust sysops, theoretically. The system admin won't be able to view the contents of the VM. Hyper-V supports this as well.

It seems you only show top 3 levels by default, then allow manual toggle to show/hide nested replies?

Also for long list of replies, you also only show first few.

This design may helps "smaller comments" to surface when the conversation is relatively "mature".
ImpNet: Imperceptible/blackbox-undetectable backdoors in neural networks
I agree that military IT has been atrocious. I disagree that NMCI was "damn near treasonous levels of awful." NMCI was a large, Department of the Navy (DoN) -wide contract that had incredibly challenging tasks it needed to complete to be successful. The first few years were bad but it got better over time and, by the time the next transition was set to happen, it was running pretty smoothly.

When people complained about not getting the things they wanted, what they were really railing against was the fact that they didn't get what they wanted all the time anymore; the military grew accustomed to telling someone "I want X" and it happened, regardless of cost, lifecycle sustainment, security, etc. NMCI forced the DoN to develop and articulate requirements properly, write good contracts, budget for software and hardware sustainment, and generally operate professionally.

In short, I would take an NMCI computer and enterprise services from 2010 versus a Marine Corps Enterprise Network computer and enterprise services from 2022 any day of the week.

Disclosure: I have been a Marine Corps Communications Officer for almost 20 years; starting before NMCI. I worked at the regional and enterprise levels to transition ownership back from the NMCI program/contractor to government owned.
Hyper-V?
I'm not sure that UX is really the problem for VR. I think the tech itself needs to improve. I bought an Oculus Quest (the newest one) to experiment with immersive workspaces but the motion detector wasn't good enough to allow me to work without using the controllers.

Furthermore, the resolution also meant I couldn't see code on the virtual screens unless I zoomed in significantly.

IMO that's an impediment to the majority of the further use cases.
Thank you. I just found it now on my own on desktop via their "About this forum" footer link, wasn't obvious to me when I quickly glanced at it on mobile earlier.

If you get a new job they can re calculate spousal support. That's been the rule for decades, and MRA FUD notwithstanding courts will not force a spouse to maintain a job they hate to maintain the ex spouses standard of living... Unless there's evidence that you are taking the new job for the purpose of lowering your spousal (or child) support obligations, in which case they will impute income. (But note that appellate courts have been more willing to strike down imputed income orders than they traditionally were).

A post divorce party increase generally does not result in higher spousal support unless it might restore an earlier level of spousal support, but either way it would increase child support.
Can be either, but saws are more common.

The process is referred to as "wafer dicing".
Maybe we should just make it common practice to do:
Array.prototype.flatten = Array.prototype.flat

Similar to "* { box-sizing: border-box; }" has become standard.

If they can't add an official .flatten for backwards compatibility now, we can assume they never will, right?
It seems that in order to use the default rules, the target name needs to have the same name as the source file, e.g.

file: file.cpp

so specifying the "exe" filename as the output seems to be already a custom rule, so it doesn't seem to work without manually calling the selected compiler.

Another issue is that indeed, CC+CFLAGS is supported by default (implicit) rules, but as soon as the user tries to build a custom rule (which is 99% of the time), the support is lost unless explicitly adding it.

Third issue is that it seems that implicit rules can be different by different implementations of make, i.e. BSD make can have different rules than GNU make. Even if we consider only one implementation, then default rules can be different to each platform. The docs state that the user should consider the output of the `make -p` command in order to see the rules, which gives me an impression that different implicit rules can exist on different Linux distros, depending on how `make` was compiled (not sure what is the de facto state).

I mean, it doesn't sound simple.
Yes, but remember that the UN Security Council has a habit of fabricating evidence. Colin Powell was never trialled for showing “proof of WMD in Irak” and he died in 2021, with no penalty for his lies.

That happened with every recent war. It’s a habit of fabricating evidence, not mere clerical errors.
Only for English
Fully agree with every single word in this article. Particularly the bit about "identity statistics".

Also, regarding failure of notation: I've been arguing for a while that the notation we use for probability is highly problematic and effectively eggregious abuse of notation. And not just the whole "belief vs frequency of hypotheticals", but even the simple fact of what it represents. Does p(x) denote an event? The whole distribution? The distribution over a particular space?

An apologist might rightly point out that p(x) is actually shorthand for p(x=X), where x is the event and X is the distribution. But even this screams confusion.

For me the ideal notation would have been something that makes it explicit that the probability describes a set of 'sampling events' from a 'pool', e.g. Prob_{x}(X), where x is the set of events, and X is the nature of the distribution (i.e. a function which returns frequencies/beliefs over a domain).

And probability density functions would be denoted as actual derivatives, e.g. d/dx P_x (Cum.Normal)

> It's a really crazy move from Dolby since they have at least a few products that use Opus

Seems like the strategy here is going to be to use FUD to leech small amounts of money from individual hardware device sales from the companies that can afford to pay it. It's just rent seeking. So long as they never actually sue anyone for their use of Opus, it seems like they'll be in the clear as far as the Opus license goes.
Oh it's definitely impressive, I just couldn't help laughing.
There are different ways to make money, some more impressive than others. Compare e.g. painting a painting and selling it, vs mugging an old lady in the street.
Except that you can't query across anything, because that would be useful.

One of my "acid tests" for a well-designed UI is if integrates metrics with configuration.

For example, VMware will show cute little inline bar charts of CPU and Memory utilisation when browsing virtual machines.

Similarly, some firewall or load-balancer products will show "hit counters" or similar stats next to rules or virtual servers.

For the other 99% of products out there, it's up to the end user to manually perform the "join" by clicking around the GUI. There may be an API, or a scripting tool, but without fail these won't provide a robust link (a foreign key) that would actually make this easy.
I've suspected for a while now that not many people on the Android team (and most Android manufacturers) are not actually incentivized to care about improving existing products/fix outstanding bugs
Okay, maybe I'm missing something here, but how? Per wikipedia (1), opus is licenesed under bsd license. More relevant, on their own site(2) they tout opus as "a totally open, royalty-free" codec.

My question is, how can someone just step in, say "this mine, give money" and the world just goes with it? Did the opus developers (inadvertendly) use some patented tech? Do hardware makers use it? Or do Dolby and Fraunhofer have patents so broad that they cover anything encoding audio?

According to Raymond Chen, this usually happens when software relies on undocumented APIs or undefined behavior. When Windows removes undocumented APIs or changes behavior not covered by the documentation, such apps break and people blame Microsoft. For example, I remember one app used to programmatically find some kind of "Print" menu in Windows' desktop environment and call it to implement printing functionality. When Microsoft changed the UI of the desktop (shuffled the menu items around) the app broke and people immediately blamed Microsoft, even though the app is to blame because the exact location of the menu item was never supposed to be a public contract. If an app is a widely used one, Microsoft usually used to create "shims" which detected funky behavior like that and corrected it to make the app work again. I think they don't do it anymore after Windows 8, that's why apps started breaking more frequently.
Android offers the same thing. The point here is about the google pay services which is a highly priviledged service inside any android and so will be apple inside any iphone.
Exactly, here in silicon valley the housing is so expensive that even if you can afford a house with FAANG salary you'd have to keep doing it for next 30 years to be able to actually own the damn thing.

Argh - yes it can. Bell explicitly have a pretty trivial one in one of his early papers. QM cannot be explained by a non-contextual hidden variables model. (The simplest physical version of contextuality is locality - so as Bell showed you cannot explain quantum theory with a local hidden variables model).
