> but hey, QCD isn't either (still waiting on that Grand Unified Theory)

Note that there may well not exist any GUT. However, QCD can't be correct until it also accounts for gravitational effect, so what we're waiting for is a theory of Quantum Gravity that is consistent with both QCD and General Relativity.
Petroleum-fueled vehicles are the same, for the same reason.
When I go outside I can barely see any stars, unlike my ancestors who saw a sky utterly filled with stars.

Then I go on my computer and I can see more stars, with more details, than my ancestors even imagined.

I can't decide if it's a worthwhile tradeoff.
Well to be clear what I'm saying is that they literally murdered a whole generation of engineers, scientists, and technicians. What are you supposed to do from that starting point? Had they not captured train loads of Nazi scientists and literally stollen every significant piece of technology developed in the west for 20+ years it would have taken them FAR FAR longer to develop a lot of this stuff independently. They essentially cut themselves off from the global community and purged all of their talent. They had to bootstrap science and engineering somehow.

No doubt, absent the stalinist purges and closing off of the USSR, then Soviet scientists could have equally participated in the science and engineering going on in the rest of the world.

I wear a ring while typing, usually on my index, middle, or ring fingers. Couldn't handle wearing it on my thumb at first because it kept tapping/scraping against the keyboard or the mouse and it'd get distracting in a bad way because I usually rest my entire palm on the keyboard.

I keep it on a chain around my neck on occasion, but if I'm wearing it, then: the way I type nowadays is by resting my wrists on my laptop (or a wrist rest if I'm using a PC) so the part of the finger my ring rests on never touches or comes close to the keyboard.

Those ergonomic wrist rests are pretty good at helping me maintain a decent workflow while compromising with whatever is adorning my hands. They're not necessary though, I usually substitute those with a thick textbook, blocks of wood and whatnot depending on my needs at the time.
That's Marxism in a nutshell - capitalism requires a slave labor class to prop it up.

Hello, I'm Viktor from Ukraine, the author and founder of the Animation CPU mobile coding platform, which I've been developing for 10+5 years.

2 years ago during COVID-19, 2014-2022 war in Ukraine and financial pressure, I wrote to Amjad with my ideas about mobile coding and was looking for support.

He was introduced as a judge in the Pioneer.app remote accelerator and as an investor, and I had reason to trust him. As a result, he copied 5 ideas out of 5, about which he said that they say "I still do not understand what your project is about" and silently copied everything. I am a programmer with 20 years of experience and this looks like the biggest YC programmer scam in the world. Considering how russian maniacs want to steal everything and destroy Ukrainians and European civilization.

I asked Amjad to help my project, make a donation and help Ukraine, but he never did.

Lets try my original mobile dev project https://twitter.com/AcpuStudio

No icebreaker, but related in context of energy density:

In the dd(1) case, we're talking about "having any pipe involved at all" vs "no pipe, just copying internal to the command." The Linux kernel pipe buffer size is only 64KB, while my hand-optimized `bs` usually lands at ~2MB. There's a big performance gap introduced by serially copying tiny (non-IO-queue-saturating) chunks at a time — it can literally be a difference of minutes vs. hours to complete a copy. Especially when there's high IO latency on one end, e.g. on IaaS network disks.
I usually fly at 350 feet above ground level, which results in fairly good details.

I definitely recommend getting the commercial drone pilots license if you haven't already.
My MacBook Pro died from humidity while I was trapped in the amazon rainforest during the panedemic, and I had to do some work, so I bought an USB keyboard in Iquitos and I set up a development environment with postgres, vim, tmux, ruby, rails etc, inside Termux. Small screen, and no devtools in mobile browsers, but worked pretty good otherwise.

I wish, but I doubt it, and even if parents clamored about protecting their kids the proposals from at least some state governments tend more to the "give all teachers guns" side than to anything resembling gun control.

I know I wouldn't have felt very safe in school if I knew the teachers had weapons. I saw plenty of teachers melt down at school, including threatening and striking kids, especially in high school. Remember when "going postal" was a thing? Do you suppose public school teachers endure as much stress as postal workers?

I was never too worried about school shootings when I had young kids, but I homeschooled them most of their school years. Not out of fear. Then when my oldest daughter was at college I saw on the news an active shooter at the school she attended. It turned out to be a crazy person waving a gun around (no one shot) but scared the hell out of me. When I was in elementary school we did nuclear war drills -- crawl under your desk, know where the nearest fallout shelter is. That threat seems almost comically remote now, compared to the number of people with guns and behavioral disorders among us.
Suits gabbling. Sample:

> But please invite the verification team to the table. I might have another generation, and I’d like an option or a mode here. I’d like to flip this over. I would like to have multiple choices and options all the way through that. The verification person will sit down and tell you to validate and verify the core. But for every option, you’ve doubled the work, because you now need to test with and without. We all love the idea of the freedom and innovation — as long as we have some standards here to tape out on a reasonable timeframe.

When two waves interact it's more like an elastic collision, isn't it?

From the article it wasn't clear to me if these extra high-energy particles they were seeing as fuzz in the data (which are heavier than a photon) are actually unexplained mass or a situation of conservation of energy meets special relativity (kinetic energy -> mass).

If you put enough energy into separating quarks, I'm told you get extra quarks. So an energetic system where the masses don't add up doesn't seem like an epoch defining mystery to me. So what are we missing?
Presumably you understand how DNS records (and more generally the entire domain name system system) work. Do you think your system would work for someone who did not have any of this background knowledge? I feel like this is still a significant barrier and at least part of the reason why most people use gmail/hotmail/yahoo etc.
Yes, there is plenty of evidence for this; see for instance the WireGuard paper. Numerous code size comparisons have been done here.

Further, that is not what the WireGuard paper concludes. For instance: the paper makes a note of the fact that WireGuard is designed to be implemented without dynamic memory allocation, which is not a function of lines of code (in fact, it probably adds lines of code).

You do you, but as a practitioner in this space, I'd say using OpenVPN or IPSEC in 2022 without some powerful compatibility, regulatory, or network complexity concern to support it is malpractice. You might disagree, but I think you'd be in the minority of security engineers on the point. Feel free to ask around! The codebases for OpenVPN and the IPSECs are reviled.

I would love to have an ideas and people genealogy where you can select a thinker like Rousseau and have a graph of the main ideas in his works and their predecessors.

Think about his amour de soi. Did it existed previously anywhere else? Who talked about something similar earlier?

I'd die for something like that.
Being skeptical of cutting edge research is a lot different than distrusting science. There are plenty of people out there denying special relativity, evolution by natural selection, or believing all of western medicine is invalid, based on extrapolation from stuff like this.

I won't speak for all textbooks, but generally stuff you find in there should not be the same as what you find in journals, and is much more settled. Big caveat that that isn't necessarily true for younger sciences without long-established theory, say exercise physiology or social psychology, but something like a chemistry textbook is pretty damn trustworthy.

And those are what people who aren't actually scientists should mostly be educating themselves with, not newspaper science reporting sections.

Mark is for sure doing a bad and out of touch job presenting The Metaverse to normal people. He's right about his bet though. The infrastructure he's building is going to pay off. I think a lot of the popular criticism at Horizons has to do with people seeing it as a video game. Which it isn't. But you have to build off what is familiar to people and that's going to be 3D video games.

I'm no Zuck booster either. I wish John Carmack never would have gone to work for them, I wish they weren't doing this, and I think Zuck is gross. But the growth in this space is happening fast and next year is going to be very interesting. The momentum in the 3D recursive and reprojected computing space has just had some major leaps. I'm going to do everything I can to focus on open tools, but there's no doubt that Meta will continue to do pretty well as it expands.

To be frank, especially for anyone who hasn't lived in LA, the LAPD doesn't do anything for the public unless it's something involving guns and/or gangs.

It's not unlike how developers mark most bugs as "won't fix".

I've seen active break-ins and robberies in LA, and called the police only to have nothing being done in those situations. While anecdotal, I'm afraid this is a really common experience that has only gotten worse with COVID-flation.
The solve rate for grand theft auto is almost always the lowest rate across felony crime types, just below other property theft. The highest solve rate is for murder, and LA hovers around 50% for that.

> Kids are basically financial suicide unless you're crazy-rich.

Or if you're very poor, then the more kids you have, the more you receive in benefits. Many poor people manage to have more kids than middle class people.

The middle class parent thinks "if I have another kid how will I pay for their college?" The poor parent just sends their kids to community college or if they're amazingly brilliant and get into Harvard, then they'll get a free full ride because they're poor.
The market for security cameras is very old fashioned and plagued with proprietary implementations. ONVIF is the standard that allows interoperability with desktop Video Management Systems and other devices, is the protocol that allows to glue together end to end systems.

Some alternatives are starting to appear, but this is an industry that moves really slow. Things only seem to happen when a new player disrupts the market and starts taking market share, as AXIS did with cheap IP cameras back in the day.
I’m having a hard time drawing a conclusion of “practically the same” for a device you’re free to remove at any time without consequences versus one that gets you sent back to prison for a parole violation if you voluntarily remove it.

We like to pick on Amazon disproportionately I think. At least in my situation, Apple and Google know far more about me in the most terrifying ways than Amazon. Apple has access* to my entire Phone and over 12 years of phone backups on iCloud. My most intimate conversations, photos, medical and biometric data, etc. Amazon has access to purchase history, not much more since I don't use Alexa.

I'm not frustrated personally, but I know a lot of people who lost their faith in what the organization does.

No one is branching off, but a pretext that your personal take on things must comply with some sort of argumentation protocol that is the only valid blueprint for discussion isn't convincing. Moreover you've managed to somehow unwrap you single comment into a fully fledged dialog while ignoring that their roadmap (the big picture) is not exposed to the public. Given we can only judge isolated decisions, they seem what they are — rather not aligned with the expectations of the userbase.

Personally, I see a pattern of Signal making news in rather negative connotation rather than positive lately.

When it got traction, I felt like it's a new day and the future is bright. But since then, they went with a series of rather ambiguous decisions that sidetracked from previous claims.

EOS for SMS is again one of controversial decisions, I mean, we're in a thread started by a person that went above to clarify reasoning behind the press release.
And before it was a year of server side repos without any commits, and then the public got a feature no one asked for — MobileCoin integration. And echoes of intent about it are still heard across the table.
Have you shown them all the interesting and useful features that comprise the git ecosystem yet? Things like GitHub, maybe with its releases, wiki, issues, discussions, etc., perhaps GitLab with its ops/CI/CD features, etc.?

That's true, there are definitely ways to make this work if we're confining these to very restricted spaces with active monitoring.

Planimeter founder here. I remember doing back of the napkin calculations on frame time and latency years ago and thinking that the fundamental constraints game developers face could not be overcome. The closest you could get would be to have edge nodes everywhere, and even then, you couldn't do it.

That is to say, there is no future in this universe where real-time, predicted gameplay can currently fit within 16ms (60 FPS) let alone 6ms (144 FPS).

You blow the budget immediately. Today's implementations lag several frames (overbudget). For myself and other game developers I work with, that's just unacceptable, and I don't know anyone right now who is considering software-level or gameplay-level accommodations for streaming the game over a service.

Take an empty game (update nothing, draw nothing) and send black over the wire. You blow the budget.

Note that a- is a different prefix than anti-. a- means "without", whereas anti- means "the opposite of". So, being a-theistic means that you are "without god(s)". Being anti-theistic would meant that you oppose god(s). An amoral thing is a thing to which morality doesn't apply (for example, weather phenomena are amoral). Anti-moral would mean something that is opposed to morality, which would probably make it immoral (such as a human killing another human that hasn't wronged them in any way).

No. And to be clear, it depends where the pdf is : if it's inside another app, like adobe scan, you can't unless you share it from the other app and retype your mail. If it's already in "Files", then you are lucky and some apps -like gmail- allow you to pick from "Files".

If you wish for Adobe Scan to store the scan in "Files" automatically, well, you can't. You have to "share" them individually FROM THE APP to "Files".

And I think you will understand, now : this is the same shit show when trying to upload something via FTP. Like family photos.

The UX is stupid. The workflow is abysmal. The discovery is inexistant. The teams responsible for this at Apple don't care, as it's been like this for _years_.

> I don't think Russia has the same cultural attitude toward casualties and attrition that the US has, and it seems to me that their objective is more than a pure grab of territory.

And yet they eventually left Afghanistan. The casualties became too much, and arguably helped toward the collapse of the USSR.

Putin may be willing to accept unlimited casualties, but the Russian population isn't. Not for annexing eastern Ukraine.
I’m not sure a captcha would help though. These aren’t intentional attack requests, they’re “legitimate” requests by a clueless developer’s app that happened to get popular.

> a git-based comment system, is beneficial?

I don't need no db or a web API to store comments. A db need some moving parts to serve http, a third party service is unreliable in the long run. Comments can be stored as part of a static site, like in json for csv format, as it's frequently read but rarely written. Static files are easy to integrate into any webpage, easy to backup, migrate and grep.

I realize there are some problems yet to be solved, e.g. mask email address of the commentor.

This looks to cool I didn't know anything about perceptual hashing but the idea makes a lot of sense. I'm curious if the system lose its effectiveness if a user shifts an image a few pixels, reflects it, or apply a certain filter that makes all pixels have a slightly different tonality. I'm also thinking of some system maybe a small ML program that applies a minimal amount of noise to the image such that to the human eye it looks the same but pixel-wise is totally different.

What you did here?

Listing 3-5 things in positive tone about going to the office.

Listing 3-5 things in negative tone about working remote.

It is just a point of view. Let's see how I fare:

I love not to see people wanting to bash others in the face, not having heated discussions but calm and easy to control meetings that are up to point because you cannot just speak louder over people on a remote call. Love to provide actual value instead of hanging around coffee machine and bike shedding.

I am fully aware that there are people who rather go drink beers or have coffee with their coworkers than spend time with their family or neglect house pets they got because they felt lonely even if they live in a small flat in Berlin.

Hiring people from outside EU is not that easy/cheap - you either go via intermediary that will rip you off or you will spend time/resources on finding good people. Screening/hiring people from your own country is much easier, handling any issues that may arise after you hire them is also much easier.
It's hard to realize this until you try something and suck at it.

It's especially hard if you've basically been good at the things you have done in life, not realizing you either got lucky choosing things you were good at, just tended to be drawn to things you were good at without realizing why, or got jobs at things because others realized the good match...
Exactly, but only via a repo.
