Sorry for your loss. It sounds like you had a very close relationship with him that must make it really hard.

I lost my dad 7 years ago last month, and it's been the hardest thing in my life. If it's any consolation for you, you will never stop missing him. This Reddit post really helped me during the really hard times https://www.reddit.com/r/GriefSupport/comments/d9685e/grief_...
Good to know. "yes, please let me work to death for this Japanese boomer who still uses floppy disks." I don't think so

Japanese lack of productivity stems from a lot of hard-headedness from their management. Anything that disrupts this is welcome in my book
All of this seems to be treating errors as nuisances. Go was written to treat errors as values. As someone who has written Go code professionally for more than a decade, I agree with that mantra and error checking is not really a pain point. I don't understand all the proposals that claim that it is...

Ah yes, because before Copilot it was impossible for competitors to use the code of an open source project.

This reminds me of a dialogue from Gregory Bateson's Steps Toward an Ecology of Mind:

Daughter: Daddy, why do things get in a muddle?
Father: What do you mean? Things? Muddle?
D: Well, people spend a lot of time tidying things, but they never seem to spend time muddling them. Things just seem to get in a muddle by themselves. And then people have to tidy them up again.
F: But do your things get in a muddle if you don’t touch them?
D: No—not if nobody touches them. But if you touch them—or if anybody touches them—they get in a muddle and it’s a worse muddle if it isn’t me.
F: Yes—that’s why I try to keep you from touching the things on my desk. Because my things get in a worse muddle if they are touched by somebody who isn’t me.
D: But do people always muddle other people’s things? Why do they, Daddy?
F: Now, wait a minute. It’s not so simple. First of all, what do you mean by a muddle?
D: I mean—so I can’t find things, and so it looks all muddled up. The way it is when nothing is straight
F: Well, but are you sure you mean the same thing by muddle that anybody else would mean?
D: But, Daddy, I’m sure I do—because I’m not a very tidy person and if I say things are in a muddle, then I’m sure everybody else would agree with me.
F: All right—but do you think you mean the same thing by “tidy” that. other people would? If your mummy makes your things tidy, do you know where to find them?
D: Hmm… sometimes—because, you see, I know where she puts things when she tidies up
F: Yes, I try to keep her away from tidying my desk, too. I’m sure that she and I don’t mean the same thing by “tidy.”
D: Daddy, do you and I mean the same thing by “tidy?”
F: I doubt it, my dear—I doubt it.
That is just one obvious thing to do, of course. However, you need to destroy the enemy ship first. There easiest are teleportation-oriented and lasers-oriented. Teleportation oriented is extremely easy with Crystal crew, easy with mantis/rock crew, a must for 4-pad teleporter ships. Lasers oriented, best works with those lasers that use 2 power and have 3 shots, get 3 of them and enemy flagship is dead very soon. And if you are playing a drone or missile oriented game, you just need to figure out how to use the devices you happen upon on your flight to compliment your deficiencies.
Accenture, actually.
The free expansion added cloning bays as an alternative to medical bays which prevent you from healing your crew but revive them from the dead after a short cloning phase. I remember getting stuck in one situation where my O2 system was destroyed and my crew were stuck in an infinite loop of cloning and running through an oxygen-free ship in a desperate attempt to repair the life support. Funny stuff but survivable if your cloning bay is upgraded (so that it clones faster).
I suspect in the EU they don't do that due to the PSD2 requirement to have two-factor.
Congratulations! I can't speak to bone density, but if you stick with it, you'll see big improvements throughout your life: better mood, better sleep, more focus, meeting new people... Best of luck on your journey!
If they can deliver a profitable DR platform they'll be fine. Sounds like they haven't done that yet though, if the upfronts are this big a deal.
I mean, discussions about this free-market/neoliberal political shift have been going on for a long time. To just assume state-owned industry "just doesn't work" because of that post-Soviet shift is confirmation bias on an already weak correlation.

In Sweden it's glaringly obvious that the privatizations have provided worse outcomes than before - even the free-market think-tanks are smart to avoid that subject. Unfortunately for us, they instead tend to focus on supporting voices that blame immigration for the consequences of sky-rocketing inequality. I guess they'll have to wait another decade or so before the myth building of the inherently incompetent state is on more fertile ground.

> So unless your threat model is the three letter agencies entering and bugging your house

The three letter agencies will have no problems gaining access to a house via picking a lock.

Their ability to access without detection extends beyond that.

On top of that, let’s be honest, if they want to bug someone, they will just access the mic on their phone, Alexa device, smart tv, etc.
95% of those are bots. Elon himself said it so it must be true.

I don't know what "intra-elite coordination system" means, but it probably doesn't concern me. I know stuff from Twitter gets on the news and maybe affects what some people do, but mostly the controversies that erupt on social media have to do with the social media platforms.

The biggest thing that ever happened on Twitter (which somehow contributed to Musk buying it) was Trump getting banned. That led to all kinds of earnest and serious-seeming "conversations" and "debates" about free speech and public squares and all that, but in the end what Trump tweeted all day long amounted to nonsense. Just like following what Kanye or the Kardashians do, it seems to mean something, it seems important, but think about it and all you have is spectacle and celebrity worship and gossip. Social media gives us a firehose of pseudo-events, spectacles that seem to mean something but don't. They occur only to get reported on and liked or repeated in the same social media sphere. Daniel Boorstin describes that phenomenon -- which predates social media -- in his book The Image: A Guide to Pseudo-Events in America. Read that instead of Twitter or Facebook to learn how pointless and manipulative social media has become in our culture. That some people may find nuggets of value here or there in the dumpster fire doesn't make it a good thing.

The recent rise of interest in nuclear energy is producing interesting designs, but ignores the reality that solar is already the cheapest source of energy in history. It's a source that can also be deployed _now_, instead of 10 years from now. At that time there will be a surplus of energy, and no nuclear plants will be needed. Those will be highly undesirable toxic waste generators once they come online, even the new safe ones.

Except for this one. Pinky promise.

I don't think I understand your point. But I like that you are kind.

Still, kindness doesn't stop bank robbers, scammers, violent criminals, and I don't hold any hope that it will stop anti-vaxxers.
ripgrep

But to not leave a one word answer, start searching for a feature you know about and look around from where you find it. It might help to add a super small feature yourself - when it finally works, you’ll have some idea of how the code is structured and will be able to infer where other features would live if they were there. (That might take a bit more than one addition ;))

In chromium’s case, what you’re trying to do is more like reverse engineering… I’d start with a debugger.
I got obsessed with Stable Diffusion. I get past the honeymoon period generating everything I could imagine, and now I'm trying to actually incorporate it in my daily work. Furthermore, I'm sharing my experiments here https://bits-next.p1x.in/generating-perfect-grass-textures.h...

Another new and exciting thing for me is the Gemini protocol. The simple, low-tech internet. I started porting all my texts/websites to my own capsule at gemini://floppy.p1x.in (server from real 3.5" floppy!)

The "affinity cursor" is a really lovely innovation. Most HTML/DOM/contenteditable based rich text editors end up adding support for virtual cursors that enable you to have the insertion cursor somewhere that the native browser cursor hasn't got support for (next to a floating image, end of a table row). Effectively this is what this is doing.

Internally the inline formatting will be marked as tags in a rage, exactly like html. Essentially there is a possible cursor position both inside and outside a formatting tag, but both appear as the same visual location on the screen. This is such a lovely way to indicate the difference.

So with this code:

Something <b>bold</b>

There are two cursor positions that are visually the same place:

Something |<b>|bold</b>
^ ^

Most editors "jump" over one of those positions to hide the implementation detail from users. This idea exposes it with a little tail on the cursor.

If it's CE or FDA you're after, they are not that bad at all, I was tasked with it as an intern many moons ago and could complete both within 3 months starting from zero. It's a lot easier if it's the lowest level grade of medical device, otherwise you need clinical trials which are really difficult to organize. At the lowest level it's basically just a bunch of documentation you need to present to the authorities.
> None of them, but that's fine.

Not entirely true, my server has a content moderator - it's me, moderating my own content, which is the only content that can be posted on there.

What is "kicking out people who don't play by their rules" if not "content moderation"??

> I make no profit from fossil fuels

We almost all profit from fossil fuel. Our entire lives are built around it and defined by it...

I don't really believe there will be an enlightenment, just a forced adaptation. And this will happen less quickly if we believe there is an easier solution than changing most of our ways.

We have countless examples of these. Did massively improved engines make car consume massively less petrol? No, they mostly got bigger. Improving farming? Just eat more meat and waste more food. Capable of building insanely dense but livable neighborhoods? We've never expanded our cities horizontally as much as now for cars and single family houses.

Getting a better control on the environment will just enable us to trash it more... just like usual.

Twitter was never the "town square". No single website, no matter how popular, has any realistic hope of being a "town square" short of maybe something owned by the UN or something. A website is, at best, a corkboard on the wall of some private business or domicile - and while some of those corkboards might be big and relatively lax in who can post what on them, at the end of the day someone owns it and will use that ownership to control what's conveyed on it.

The actual "town square" is the Internet itself, and every effort should be made to ensure it stays that way.
For me it’s Werner Herzogs Movies. Techno music history and culture. Waiting for Breath of the Wild 2. Visual Design. Unreal Engine. Photogrammetry. Drawing with my kids. This may appear a bit „all over the place“ but i dug quite deep into the things above except for Werner Herzog as it takes some effort to convince my wife watching the movies.
Like others in this thread making things with Stable Diffusion. I started a YouTube channel with tutorials and workflow experiments https://youtube.com/user/pjgalbraith
Honestly I think your comment shows part of the problem here, though I do understand your point. But if "mere" employees feel that they are personally in competition with basically the rest of the world it easily becomes a war of attrition and employees become kind of soldier-ants. I'd rather be my own person thank you very much.
People can in fact be loyal and productive in 8 hours per day without being a slacker and maybe have some energy left to partake in society outside of work. Nobody likes people with a bad work-ethic but if a good work-ethic is considered to require regular overtime than maybe it's time to reconsider that concept.
Radio is another place where serial interfaces are still very common to configure hardware (e.g. upload channel frequencies, or download logs).
People miscount worked hours with the fervour that they miscount calorie intake!
Also nice to see: visualization of the sum.
Work just gets so unproductive past certain point that you're just doing it to signal others how hard you're working. I had a boss in academia who insisted on having a "5 minute meeting" at 4pm. We'd be scratching our heads at one of his stupid problems still at 7pm when he'd announce he has to leave because he has a family. Usually without exception you'd solve the issues in a minute the next morning after having a good sleep.

I find there's like 4 good hours in the day for actual valuable creative work. The rest can be useful for grunt work, but there's rarely so much critical grunt work that one should exhaust themselves.

Hello from Switzerland (I'm not swiss though). I am passionate about reducing the suicide rates in Japan (I'm not japanese though). To contribute the way I envision, I'm building a business (one man show) to fund this endeavor. Easier said than done. First it starts by covering my costs, then moving on to this ambition.

They seem to have lost $221M in 2021[1] which would be ~600k/day but that seems to have been influenced by an $800M lawsuit loss - that would imply they had (theoretical) profits of ~$580M for 2021.

I have and while its true a neuron does more than the simple on/off of their artificial peers, I'd hardly call it "the complexity of a large neural network internally". There just aren't that many bits needed to represent all the parameters you just mentioned. Stuff you mention like ion channels and neurotransmitters feels like excessively mimicking biological constraints rather than something actually relevant. Who cares if the real neurons use chemical channels and electrical channels to communicate, the artificial ones can just send the same information in electrical channels for everything.

First of all, thanks for this, I've been using it today. I'll e-mail later with a longer list of comments/suggestions.

First request would be a way to sync settings across multiple machines, or at least a way to import/export configs.

I did get hit with the issue about having incoming connections blocked by default - realized RDP connections were blocked even from the local subnet, and had to go plug a physical monitor in.

I was a bit surprised I couldn't figure out a clean way to allow inbound connections from the local network, but not from the internet. The docs at https://docs.safing.io/portmaster/settings seem to imply that I can set various settings to different tiers - 7 for trusted, for untrusted, 4 for hacked, but even when I have the developer view tuned on, I just see a binary choice.

Letting trillion-dollar companies freely grind up the collective creative output of planet earth into digital meat slurry to fuel automatic content-generators seems like a bad thing.
I did that shit at 22! Not built for long hours and never was. I deeply connect with the mathematicians apology where he says 4 hours is enough work then watch cricket. Although I prefer to say kayak or something. In remember being that age and angry that my boss wanted me to work through lunch to fix some absent persons bug. Because I had done 5 hours already and humans need a break.
I don't think you understand. This has nothing to do with activists. Companies already did not want to advertise on controversial content 40 years ago. You don't see Rolex advertising on The Sun (and no, it's not only about demographics, plenty of upper class people read tabloids).

Brand image is extremely important. You most definitely do not want most brands appearing close to shitty content.

You have the same thing with physical advertising where brands will refuse their ads in some places if the perception of the space is too bad (ex: homeless people around, drug traffic...). The reason is that even if you might be interested with the brand you will now associate it with the environment you were presented it with.

Of course for Lidl it is less of a worry, but even low price brands have standards and don't want to be anywhere near a nazy content.
I can partially understand overtime when productivity is high enough that any improvements during those 8h would be negligible, and parallelism would not be a good idea (Brook's Law).

Before you ask your employees to do overtime you should find out what their typical day looks like. I have mostly worked for startups during my career, and all the wasted time and interruptions still blow my mind.

To make an analogy, it's like releasing a game with average graphics that a powerful GPU struggles to render, and blaming GPUs for low FPS instead of your poor software. You should optimize your game before you ask players to overclock their cards.

It's _your team_, the people you most closely work with every day. You shouldn't need a manager to talk to each other.
