> Safari (especially on iOS) appears to have become the new Internet Explorer, holding back progress for everyone. The table in the article certainly suggests it.

Ah yes. Tables. Let's look at the actual text and text in some linked articles [1]

=== start quote ===

Last year, Google began requiring AV1 support for new Android TV and Google TV devices

...

[1]

Google is requiring makers of Android TV devices to support AV1 starting this month. Additionally, Google also seems to push makers of smart TVs and streaming devices not based on Android TV to use AV1 for YouTube.

Google has long forced device makers to use the free VP9 codec for 4K YouTube streams.

=== end quote ===

So, Google is abusing its market position to ram through its own standards. But sure, it's Apple and Safari who are the bad guys.

Github copilot is like a search engine for code without the distracting elements of a traditional search engine, for me atleast.
> The latest GNOME versions are even buggier, and when it does work, it feels like a toy project compared to KDE.

This is an interesting viewpoint. My ideal DE is one that is "invisible", so to speak, and I've found that GNOME comes closest to it. I want to launch whatever program I'm using and focus on it's window. KDE has too much chrome, too many elements, so many options. It feels too "busy" to me. Ditto its apps, e.g. comparing okular to evince. Too many buttons, too many UI elements (I know I can remove them, but I don't want to have to, and all the functionality they expose I can do on evince using keyboard shortcuts), and all I'm interested in is the document I'm reading.

To each their own, I guess, I just wanted to put forth the alternative viewpoint.
Yea helping country invaded by barbarians that destroy whole cities, rape and kill civilians les masses also openly speak about using nukes is same as destroying government elected in fair election (vatnik-meme.jpg).

Russia was attacking west for past 10+years on the cyber-front they even blew up few ammo depos in Central Europe (European Union and NATO countries), assassinate people living in UK without consequences, they were corrupting German politicians with Gasprom money, they were killing opposition inside and outside their country for past 10+ years.

They are barbarian nation and should be stopped and that was common knowledge for everyone living in Central/Eastern Europe and post USSR central asian countries for decades.

It's good that US and West wake up and I'm hoping Russia can get proper XX/XXI century leap in mentality sooner then later cause they definitely stopped growing as society about 1960. (or they can go all in and get destroyed in conventional war vs NATO both options seems good for everyone that isn't Russian oligarch)
Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Given how the protocol is used in practice it does require a lot of support. I understood the parent comment as them only supporting Google.
I looked at the source a few years back and saw more than a few functions that looked like the result of decompiling machine code to C. I didn't spend much time trying to see if that's true or not, but in the end it doesn't seem to matter. Still, if you like the game, you should keep a local fork of the repository, just in case.
Similar issues arises with such documentation in error messages. There now has to be a process to make sure that all such information is always accounted for and updated correspondingly when the system changes.

> Something went wrong, but I don't want to tell you what.

is somewhat disingenius of an example. Error logs should tell in exhausting detail what went wrong. Ops needs that to analyse the situation, and the vendor will have much less trouble reproducing the error. However, suggesting specific fixes could be disastrous. Furthermore, documentation should already be in a form that operations can be expected to work with also in crisis situations.
The LEAN/Toyota production model had this catastrophic failure built in because it got rid of all slack.

That meant that all buffers we're removed and any interruption caused cascading amplifying consequences.

You get something like a pandemic and the consequences mean that interdependent feedback systems get broken.

You read all these 1990s TPS books that are like "we switched to this system and there's no costs! Everything was better"

This is the fundamental risk tradeoff coming back. It's always there, as reliable as a natural force.

The classic works but like Womack always had that red flag. It's like 300 pages of skimpy on exacting procedural details and zero talk of downside. Everything works as long as 100% of your arbitrary selection of infinite supplies can magically appear on the loading dock perfectly on time (well usually it actually can, except when it can't)
You just need to make sure you are not violating any travel visas.

Most regions you tend to be allowed to stay 3 months in a 6 month period on a tourist visa, so as long as you aren't overstaying, you are fine.

The only problems you would face are when leaving a country, if you overstay you may be not welcome back and/or fined.

On entry to a new country, the border agents will be the judge if you are welcome or not.
And San Francisco will continue voting in the left wing govermments that produce these outcomes.
Linus Torvalds is not gate keeping official browser, search engine, maps and even package manager for linux. Also I don’t think he is making billions by allowing people to fork and yet not change kernel
Product suggestion was........a tactical vest [?] that was permanently out of stock on Amazon ???

How does this pair with a primary theme of defiance....

TIL forms of non-admissable legal evidence [polygraph, barking dogs] which are nevertheless considered useful to a judge. This tool sounds similar.....not useless, not definitive.

> People don't want to seriously grapple with these sorts of harm reduction arguments

Because there's no evidence it works and the idea makes no fucking sense. It approaches the problem in a way that all experts agree is wrong.
From One Man's Vision for His Kids to Global Teaching Aid: The Story of GCompris
How many people get fired for underperfoming? Maybe one could work at their own pace and ignore all that culture BS. It won't get you a promotion or more money, but if they're already paying you a lot, then sanity is easily worth more than a promo.
Don't spend too much time on your tools. A carpenter doesn't spend hours obsessing over screwdrivers. Reprioritizing todo items is not for people with ADHD, like most of other productivity hacks.

You need to write stuff down, use it as a guidelines to stay on track (hardest part), and tick it off. Everything else is waste of time that masquerades as "productivity hacks."

The goal is to outsource your list of things to do because you have a fallible memory, but the biggest goal is doing something that drives your life forward. Don't get stuck looking for the new productivity fad or rewriting your todo cli.
No, you're advocating for a system that generates sick content and hoping against all evidence that it somehow means there's less CSAM.
Depends on the definition of a particle, and 'virtual particles' aren't the same as 'real' particles. As I said above it'd be a good idea to change the name, it'd stop lots of confusion.

> This area is already well explored

It's not well explored at all and you just made that up lmao.

That's akin to the idiotic arguments of the past that "allowing people to see homosexuality will make them homosexual!"

Completely ridiculous.
How well your results align with the Big Five personality test (free and validated) then that would be interesting.

What you can do is

- lexical filtering by applying a blacklist of artist names on the original prompt

- perceptual filtering - drop all generated images that look too close to copyrighted images in your training set

- re-captioning based filtering - use a model to generate captions for an image and apply filters on the captions; you can also filter by visual style

- CLIP based filtering where you use embeddings to find nearest neighbours, and if they are copyrighted then you can drop the image

- or train a copyright violation detection model that takes generated images and compares them to images from the original authors

Copyright enforcement struggles are going to be interesting to watch in this decade. But I think it will slowly become irrelevant, because anything can be generate again slightly different until they finally pass the filters.
What if it was a green, yellow, or pink apple, or an apple painted violet? She would also need someone to tell her the common name of the new visual sensation she experienced. In any case, it is just another phenomenon in the bucket of 'being Mary'.
If the other browsers could implement their engines, you would still have the option not to install them.

Since they can not do it, you don't have that option.
No i think having identical cores who can slow down and deactivate features on-demand or deactivate itself is a better use of space.

>you can't run the big cores at full throttle all the time because they just use too much power.

Yes you don't do that...not even on servers (sometimes).
> As far as I've been able to read, those sites aren't in the final assembly in Shi's papers - just in the primers.

Where did you read that? Kinney explicitly asserts the opposite, but I can't figure out what he's referring to. Someone else linked to Figure S9 from their 2017 PLOS Pathogens paper, which indeed seems not to contain the site in the final assembly. I've edited my other comment here to reflect that.
I always remember it by thinking about a cathode ray tube - on that, the flying electrons are called "cathode rays", i.e. the cathode shoots out the electrons that came in from the external connection. The power supply pushes electrons into the "cathode" terminal on the device. That is, "positive current" flows out of the cathode (in the opposite direction to the electrons).
My nc has that as -C, no -c option.
If they care enough about their posts to sell themselves, then its on their own interests to own the publishing platform.

I guess we should be happy that at least aren't articles published as tweets.
>The function won’t be “postToNsa()”

How about "_NSAKEY"?

In practice Microsoft's thousands of unintentional backdoors would be indistinguishable from a small number of intentionally placed ones. Spy agencies don't even have to bother.

Is this guy enough of a public figure to require the actual malice standard? Because for a private citizen, you would only have to prove that the accusations were wrong, assuming the topic is also not considered to be of public concern.

But maybe chess championships and champions are a big enough deal to be considered public.
So 'home' would be hotel room in this context I expect.
REPL is extremely helpful for me aswell, I normally just develop whole blocks in a REPL interpreter like nodejs or IPython. And just copy the working code to an IDE.
"Jackson’s thought-experiment about Mary challenges physicalism in the following way. Physicalists claim that physical science can fully explain consciousness. However, when Mary sees the red of the apple, says Jackson, she learns something new, despite having previously learnt all the physical facts about colour vision. Thus, argues Jackson, Mary has come to know a non-physical fact; so proving that not all knowledge is physical."

I can't see how this result proves anything. Consider the analogous experiment of "Mary learns to cycle by reading books". Surely she can learn all the physics behind cycling without truly knowing how to cycle, and one could similarly conclude that there is something beyond the physical mind behind this skill. Nevertheless, we can use reinforcement learning to teach an ANN to cycle, and that doesn't mean our robot has acquired a metaphysical consciousness.

You can still interpret both results from a physicalists perspective as in "some learnings require specific physical stimuli".
I'm not great at eye contact. Especially when I'm focusing on something I'm trying to convey. But that could probably help. I remember the most intense feelings of being not listened in situations where eye contact was not possible. For ex we were walking side by side or doing something manual facing away from each other.
Maybe for the same reason the names of famous cities (especially if already famous in the past) are translated into foreign languages.

Examples.

Roma is Rome in English and Milano is Milan.

London is Londra in Italian but Manchester is Manchester and Liverpool is Liverpool.

Livorno (a small Italian town where English poets liked to spend their time) is Leghorn.

Aachen (a German city that used to be the residence of Charlemagne) is Acquisgrana in Italian.

Nobody has been translating city names anymore but Londra is going to stay. Aachen is not very famous but probably Acquisgrana is even less so. I should check current history books of schools.
you can retrain on completely separate data - I am currently doing this.
Ah yeah, I remember when a friend's company struggled for weeks with some terrible slowdowns on their Azure-based cloud infrastructure. After hours on hours of support calls and emails and weeks of hair-pulling, everything suddenly went better : after careful interviews with Azure support team, they understood that their VMs were running on hosts in two different racks, and that the link between the racks had just been upgraded from gigabit to 10-gig when the ToR switches were replaced.
Freedom on the Net 2022 Report
Sounds a great, I'll keep that in mind when I need a source of randomness next. No need to work with the ugly <random> interface, when the API I already use, gives me randomness.
I sure hope they never change this lovely feature.
The latest Electronic Design to Delivery Index (EDDI) report for September (available here [1], but behind a free subscription) indicates this as well, with a general increase in component supply. IC's are still low, but have been increasing since the seemingly largest recent dip in supply in May 2021.

It's going to be interesting to see the report for October to see if the trend is continued.

It is just because we are used to their shapes.

The french horn is not exactly the paradigm of beauty. Or a player blowing into an oboe (it is difficult to imagine that gesture producing such a beautiful noise; does he need to make that face, really? Indeed, he does). The posture with the violin is one of the most awkward one could imagine, also.

When those violas are played (as seen in the videos), the shape is least visible.
I think i read somewhere that Michal is working on a 3rd edition, maybe ask for a free/cheap digital upgrade if you buy the 2nd ed?

One of the managers started to really push the come back to the office. He even made some arrangements for our project to have a separate place in the building where only people who work for this particular project can sit. We have about 20 people working for the same client. Sound like a good idea, doesn't it?

Nope. We're all scattered over multiple teams where most of the people in that team are working directly for the client. A client that is stationed in a completely different country. Out of all the people the manager wants to see in the office only one person is someone I directly work with. The rest of the people from my team I will most likely never see in person, since they live abroad.

So, the value proposition for coming to the office is something like:

1) Lose an hour of sleep

2) Waste nearly two hours trying to commute using public transportation OR half of my daily wage by using taxi/Uber to save an hour of commute time

3) Sit in the open space office for 8 hours having no privacy whatsoever and being distracted by people who I do not even work with

4) Do all my work with a team who is stationed in an another country anyway, so I need to constantly use MS Teams or something similar to communicate

5) Spend significantly more on food (can't really cook for myself in the office) or have to go through the mess of packaging my own food (and never really have it as fresh as I want)

If I agree to come to the office on the regular I will do the same stuff I do at home, except I will spend more of my own time and money to do so. And all of that for what, some random conversations over coffee? Spending time with people I am not sure I want to be friends with? Pretending I will collaborate with that one other person more effectively? It makes no sense.

If they want me in the office they better give me a really good reason to do so. Reimbursement of time and money lost commuting would be a good start.
Absolutely yes. 3 letter agencies need more democratic accountability and control. CIA is not the only one. But NSA as well, and probably others.
And are you sure all countries allow you to "reside" there and work, even though your clients are outside of the country, and the payments are being made into a foreign bank?

I think grandparent's question is legitimate. In most cases the authorities probably don't care much how tourists (or, people with tourist visas) spend their time, but I also wonder if all these nomads follow the letter of the law to the dot -- which would be a feat with the laws of 78 countries.
Just don't say you are visiting for work if you are entering on a tourist visa and you will be fine.
Would LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE to see this ported to the Switch or released on Steam!
Furthermore, it would be seen as a huge betrayal of Ukraine. From their eyes, it will be a repeat of 2014, Russia got in, took some territory, the big players intervened with some sanctions and so, and Putin/Russia got away with it. So probably in 8 more years, or way sooner, Russia will regroup, and attack again to take some more territory, and after that, probably some other country as well. Russian and Ukrainian military telegram channels these days discuss that behind the current olive branch from Kremlin, is a desire to regroup troops(they're having losses on the battlefield daily), wait for winter to pass in the meantime training well the conscripts and rebuilding the loss machinery, and attack again in Spring. So not even 8 years of peace as it was last time, but around half a year, in exchange for quite a bit of Ukrainian Territory.
bumped into someone holding a giant knife while opening the door to leave my apartment in soma.

Bike stolen in locked garage in locked bike cage with u lock. Usually take it in my apt, but stolen the one time I left it overnight.

Saw techies get shoved into fences on embarcadero

Wine bottle thrown across the store in Safeway. Saw things being stolen from Safeway ~25% the time I went shopping. Mentally Ill people perpetually wandering the store.

Saw many physical altercations between security guards in Walgreens many times. Saw someone being tackled then spitting in the Gaurd’s face while trying to be held down.

People following me while my parents were visiting shouting profanities

Seeing car break ins in the middle of the day.

Many scary situations

Lived there 9 years. Can confirm it got much worse in the past few years.
I use a 300 lumen one, and it's the same, reflection is just not a problem at any reasonable distance (like over a metre)
Same with i7-10850H on a Dell 5411, I eventually disabled hyperthreading completely as well as some sleep states to make it quiet.
Impossible to say without knowing about things that are probably still classified.

The failures become public, the successes would just kind of quietly dissolve into the background and maybe nobody would even know the CIA was involved. Success could also be something that didn’t happen that nobody even knew was something that might have happened.
But they were never alone. Every other ex-empire or wannabe-empire has played the same game. Just look at irans agents popping up wherever there is war in the middle east, so just because its the biggest figure on the board, does not mean its the only one to be called out.

And regarding south american democracies.. well, they almost all inherited a racist, pyramid scheme of society from there colonial times. Which almost always even when democracy prevailed failed to reform, just exchange figure heads and the gravy train runs ever onward, with a different conductor.
A different group of families takes over and rules the distrought masses.

True democracies are in the hearts and minds of the people and are really tough to extuinguish, which putin just currently finds out the hard way. Its more then voting, the state becomes the property of every citizen, in there mind and stays that way even when temporary toppled.

Ever wondered, why some countries are such a rodeo ride for dictators and others aint? Its this.
The "we ought to be in control of our destiny, we were once and we will be again, cause the big men will die one day". Everything before that is democracy waiting to become real, some of them were the democracy was glued on from above even reverted with "broad public support" back to dictatorships (Turkey).
Yep, it's better.

One datapoint: Looking at the "Human rights protection" index, US stands at -0.17, and China at -1.2.

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/human-rights-protection
My theory is that the US knew the sorry state of the Russian army and tried to start the war by having NATO flirt with Ukraine. The goal was to get the Russians involved in a war that, when it was lost, could result in regime change in Russia.
Dunno, I'm always wary when something appears too self-evident to investigate. That's usually when there is a lot more nuance than I'm aware of.
> I have no doubt that very similar arguments were made for every single involvement of the US in other countries politics.

Oh that changes everything! “Sorry Ukrainian folks and freedom fighters, even though it applies now, we can’t use this argument again, since we used it as a straw man before! So long.:D”

> And hey, it might be a worthy cause for the US to get involved. Or we may fuck it up entirely and make the situation far worse than if we had just stayed out.

Right, because Russia is just [insert country], and not a terrorist state that threatens the world with Nuclear annihilation.
I can tell you the drug sniffing dogs in use in Queensland, Australia in the late 2000s absolutely were basically “dowsing rods” (I was involved in illicit things at the time and went past/was sniffed by drug dogs over a dozen times and was never caught or searched despite having illegal drugs on my person, without much of an attempt to hide them). I’ve shown my partner how the handlers give a signal to the dogs to “mark” someone for a “probable cause” search too.
Because marketing is way different than being a musician. Completely different skill set.

There is the wrong saying that is, "If you build it, they will come." Wrong-o.

You have to create drip email marketing campaigns, blogs, pictures, drop new music all the time, videos, all kinds of stuff. Just posting a song on Patreon won't cut it.

Record labels, music venues all have marketing machinery to promote. They do. It is expensive and time-consuming.

But if someone does it right, direct to consumer, then it could be a lot more lucrative, for sure.
