What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Up?
The idea here seems to be that it's OK for people to watch hours of TV a day every day.

I find it amusing that they consider TV-watching "the traditional British way". It's the traditional working class British way, sure. It's a status symbol here to _not_ have a TV, or to have a tiny one like 15" in a large room.

The issue is really that doing _anything_ mindlessly is a waste of life. TV, flicky flicky lighty box things like TikTok, and World of Warcraft enable that in exactly the same way.

And yeah, I played years of that shit when I was younger. A complete waste. Am I still here? Sure. Did it have some minor benefits? Sure. Would I recommend it? No, huge waste of time.

There's also an enormous difference here in that older people often can't really do much else. My grandma finds it difficult to read books because her eyesight is going and lots of physical pursuits are out for obvious reasons. Cosying up in front of the TV is comfortable for a woman living out the end of her days.
If he doesn't call it Full Self-Moderating, it's an opportunity missed.
Dominos Pizza allows you to monitor in real time the status of your delivery on their website after checkout

Dominos doesn't even verify that you own an email address when you register one. I have received Dominos delivery updates sent to my email address for pizzas delivered to a person who doesn't even live in the same country as me. These updates contained a bunch of PII information about the customer including their exact home address depicted on a map inside the email.

Web developers: verify that people own the email addresses or phone numbers that they register!
Original title: "«Peer Community In», un système alternatif de publication scientifique" ("Peer Community In", an alternative system for scientific publication)

The project (the website is in English): https://peercommunityin.org/

Portal title: PCI, a free recommendation process of scientific preprints based on peer reviews

> Following submission by authors, the thematic PCIs evaluate preprints in their scientific fields based on rigorous peer-review. After evaluation, the PCIs may recommend those preprints, to make them complete, reliable and citable articles, without the need for publication in ‘traditional’ journals. Authors who need to publish their article in a journal can publish it for free in Peer Community Journal or submit it to a PCI-friendly or other journal [...] The recommendation of an article is an editorial decision made by a recommender based on at least two rigorous peer review and after one or several rounds of peer reviews. The recommendations are published in the corresponding thematic PCI websites with a DOI and can be cited. // Once recommended by PCI, articles become citable valid references, similar to journal articles, but they can still be submitted to a journal or directly published in the Peer Community Journal

From the submitted article, by Denis Bourguet (cofounder of Peer Community In; Director of Research of INRAE - Institut National de Recherche pour l’Agriculture, l’Alimentation et l’Environnement):

> [PCI opens the way for a re-appropriation by researchers of their evaluation and publication system, and a greater transparency in the chain of knowledge production]

> [The project was conceived in 2016... because of the problems of restricted access to publication and high costs. // In France, half of publications... are inaccessible to the public]

> [In Europe, the reviewed pre-prints are recognized by the European Commission [and many more entities]. [In spite of making further publication in a journal non needed], researcher can also submit their validated and recommended pre-print to a scientific journal] [...] Starting from 2021, articles recommended by a topical section of PCI can be published directly in the Peer Community Journal, free and open]
I remember being at University with one of the founders (maybe late founder?).

I recall him working on audioscrobbler as a 3rd year project, and was quite impressed with it, mostly by the fact that it actually worked and recommended me something I liked.

It maybe started as a plugin for one of the popular audio players at the time (name completely escapes me though).

Only other thing I remember was him being super passionate about it, and wanting to carry on development after uni.
How to Maintain Mental Hygiene as an Open Source Researcher
The United States, judging by voting numbers in the last 2 Presidential elections. 50% is obviously a rough rounding, and serves as a figure of speech.
It totally makes business sense for them to not have to depend on Microsoft (who have their own gaming business) for their customers to play games, we all win when consumers have meaningful alternatives.
Being from Canada and ready to start a family it’s is not affordable to purchase an electric vehicle size of SUV and doesn’t have a reliable network of chargers doesn’t help either. Also there are not a lot of incentives for electric vehicle buyers.
My grandma probably watches about that much TV, but it’s mostly quiz shows and live sports. Not sure I’d leap to the same conclusion as you here.
As a European it just seems weird that sometimes the heritage that is a few generations old is pulled out of thin air in order to give some meaning in the modern day. If your family migrated to the US in the 1800s, you ain’t German, Irish or French no more. Yes, we have the same heritage, but the fork happened so long ago, that you cannot relate to the experience of something that happened later in Europe or elsewhere. Similarly how I cannot go to some German-heritage community in the US and relate to everything they lived through.
Like I said to the other commentor, I'm all for advocating for massive funding for FOIA for all agencies. However, that is absolutely not what the Epoch times is doing with deceptively edited headlines like this.
Why is he not asking other Twitter employees, and if he’s going to ask the dev community, why frame it as an interview to be an intern- to an intern?

If he was merely asking for help it would be less controversial.
It's just false, i'm in the closed beta and there are a lot of people that use it for other things than games.
When they find a bug or have a suggestion he give them the same consideration as anyone.
It basically means you can now try the upcoming release, not just stable vs experimental, which is the choice we had so far. You can select it on a per-game basis, so if things don't work in stable you can select next.
Spreading misinformation is a VERY different thing from constructive discussion of different takes on an issue. Anyone taking offense to a request like this can't tell the difference.
The term for this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaborative_filtering
zsh's autocompletion is highly configurable, so you can probably make it behave like bash. But I guess using bash would be better if you prefer its style of autocompletion. However, you should be able to use tab key for completion by default. If it doesn't work, maybe the following command can fix it:

bindkey '^I' expand-or-complete
I would probably prefer if my grandparents (~80) watched TV for 6h a day. Instead, they spend a similar amount of time on their smartphones, reading conspiracy blogs. And recently started to prepare for the imminent doom. Only thing worse would be an elder with dementia that is constantly shopping on amazon...
In the short term, you wouldn't want to run databases in WASM. You could, but it's not really worth the effort, as long as the WASM runtime allows TCP connections, you can just connect to any hosted DB as usual.

For performance, we ship three compiler backends: LLVM (fast execution, but slowest compilation), cranelift and singlepass (our own compiler, very fast compilation and you can compile untrusted code - but slowest execution). There is a slowdown, but the goal is to keep that at a minimum (proper performance tracking is on the bucket list). We are pre-compiling the python.wasm (which was already pre-optimized when the compilation to WASM happened) with LLVM, so you should get assembly that is very close to the native execution, with the exception of the necessary VM overhead. The goal is to make it so that the interoperability gains are worth the performance hit.
My politicians ideally shouldn't. And absolutely should lose elections when their dirty laundry is aired if that's what the voters think when seeing the truth.
All these music services today suck compared to last.fm.

I’ve got like 30k songs played and discovered on last.fm and I stopped using it when they ended the service as it used to be years ago.
I've seen users with 1.7 million scrobbles on Libre.fm (which means they imported their scrobble history)
> It's not that the algo is any worse than human recommendations, it's just that it's an average of all humans likes, which will never fit your exact personal unique preferences because they aren't you.

But that is a difference though, because humans possess empathy: algorithms don't. Step away from music for a second and consider movies: if all your algorithm does is recommend movies because Person X likes Movies 1, 2, and 3, it will take many layers of metadata tagging before the algorithm figures out that it shouldn't recommend Movie 2 to Person Y (even if Movie 2 is a star-studded, Oscar-winning classic), while a human being could probably spend 30 seconds looking at Person Y's viewing history and realize, "Ah, this person has very few action movies and zero horror movies in their viewing history; they probably don't like violence. I would not recommend they watch Movie 2."
I keep getting “offers” of 10% equity to literally program the whole product that doesn’t even exist yet. Startup bros want 90% to send emails. The crazy thing is people do take those offers.
That's the way music-map.com works, and it is absolutely fantastic.

But no, that is NOT the way these other services recommend things.

Spotify, for example, recommends music that it thinks is related, but not necessarily liked by both groups of people.

For example, a person who likes Black Sabbath, and really technical instrumental metal, probably doesn't like the comparatively simpler slipknot. While some people who like slipknot may like black sabbath, but even less will be aware of really technically advanced instrumental metal.

music-map.com will take that into account. When you say "my three favorite bands are", you're not going to see slipknot show up in the result list, because people who mentioned those technical bands tended not to like slipknot.

But if you go to spotify and listen to sabbath, you'll see slipknot recommendations, because there is overlap, right?

I just went over to music-map right now, and sure enough, black sabbath and slipknot don't overlap, even when you do searches of the bands individually, let alone if you enter multiple bands.
2 Years at Twitter
The internet you want no longer exists.

Stealing your account talking about propane sounds like a great way for me to inject spam/propaganda right in the middle of a group of trusted individuals. And this is exactly what we see countless times. Accounts with bad passwords get compromised, spam, then banned.

You're using a shared resource, you need to use it responsibly.

High five, my current account is also from 2005. I listen so much stuff and also forget as well, but the heart button is the life saver. Still scrobbling every day.
Still no pubg, afik :(
According to my profile I'm scrobbling since 7 Aug 2007. I'm even paying for the "Pro" version just to support the site (and for the feature that allowed me to change my emberassing old user name).

I don't check it very often any more but for some reason I still like to look at the graphs from time to time, even if I don't really hunt down recommendations based on that.
Technically it's fine, but it sits badly with me.

Ultimately their business model - we don't need to log/track/whatever your behaviour to show you advertising because we make our money off hardware - was a big differentiator for them compared to all the other tech companies. If they remove that, then they're removing one of the main reasons I stay with them.

And that's really the point - at some time soon they will stop being the "iPhone company" and they'll become "just another company" and this is just them preparing for that day.
This is where WASI (WebAssembly System Interface) comes in.
It does, and once you get useto how priorities work even on a new game I rarely need to override a pawn.
Yep, my misunderstanding.
> I've heard of Twitter accounts getting banned because they mentioned some of these subjects in context of criticizing them. (which is the opposite result that would be expected)

My comment above is the very reason for this discussion. Not using the site is the same as suggesting not commenting here, which is nearly nonsensical.
None. I’ve tried quite a bit. Amphetamines/Methamphetamine is the only thing that works well for me. And daily exercise + lots of sleep.
Honestly, handwriting is mostly just practice, kind of like art. The exceptions are generally medical sorts of things (including stuff like dyslexia).

In that vein: Have you tried learning calligraphy? If you use the more traditional nib shapes (even if using a fountain pen), you'll likely form letters in a different manner than with a ball point pen. You can move from more traditional stuff to things that look like print or cursive that you like. And then it is just practice.
I recently read a frightening article which postulates that a move towards digital currency will make NEGATIVE interest rates feasible for Central Banks.
It's so good addon. Im so happy that I discovered it and through this DKFM radio.
"Access your data[...] for a specific tab" basically describes what a bookmarklet does (where by "specific tab", you mean "a given page—the one loaded in the focused tab when you activate the bookmarklet").
Because overtime we can wear down the idea that a public facing username is some kind of unique identifier.
Sad indeed. Many people waste the last 2-3 decades of their lives on TV. I’m not entirely sure why, but an assumption is that they prob didn’t live a very sovereign life in their younger years, have grown increasingly disconnected from themselves through life, and by the time they’re older have completely lost track of what makes them come alive/is healthy.
ESA presents new generation of ESA astronauts
I think Lynyrd Skynyrd put it best in Simple Man:

Mama told me when I was young
Come sit beside me my only son
And listen closely to what I say
And if you do this it'll help you
Some sunny day oh yeah

Oh take your time don't live too fast
Troubles will come and they will pass
Go find a woman yeah and you'll find love
And don't forget son there is someone up above

And be a simple kind of man
Oh be something you love and understand
Baby be a simple kind of man
Oh won't you do this for me son if you can

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this oh babe if you try
All that I want for you my son is to be satisfied
Nothing except that the system has an HDD and not an SSD.

I've seen this numerous times with fresh Win 10 installs on hardware I had just serviced.

Just a couple of weeks ago I resolved this situation for my brother who has a fairly old desktop with a 6th gen i5 and a hard drive. The system was completely unusable because windows 10 had so much crap running in the backround polling the disk, keeping all his software waiting. Disk was completely healthy. Did a full reinstall, barely improved. Installed an SSD, and it was like new.

Some interesting holes in that spec:

> What to do with leaks out of temporaries? : p = (s1 + s2).c_str();

> pointer/iterator invalidation leading to dangling pointers

I feel like those are relatively common memory safety pitfalls, not obscure corner cases. The Core Guidelines have been in the works for about 7 years, I think? It's not clear if/when these will ever be addressed if they haven't been addressed by now.

https://isocpp.github.io/CppCoreGuidelines/CppCoreGuidelines...

There are other things mentioned in the list that look suspicious, but they're less clear. So, unless I'm misreading this, then I stand behind my original assertion that there is no safe subset of C++, but the Core Guidelines are certainly better than nothing... assuming they're actually used/enforced in real world applications. Other people are welcome to have their own opinions.
This seems important. When you chase the links, you'll find the paper, and a github repo [1]

Even there a warning can be annoying - as often a private window needs to close very quickly.
Valid discussions and critiques on the prescribed narratives are all labeled as "misinformation" conveniently and expressly because the holders of the legacy media narratives are in power and do not wish to be challenged. Common examples are: medical practitioners blowing the whistle on vaccine injuries, or recommending treatments to illnesses that have been demonized by media outlets.

You would be shocked at how many things no longer exist, but previously existed with incredible support and numbers behind them. Everything from Facebook groups, YouTube videos, blog posts, websites, etc. -- too many mediums to list, and yet, unreferenceable here because they've been taken down by the liberal moderation machine who's unwilling to view their opponents as valid participants of grander dialogues, so instead, enact policies of erasure rather than honest debate.

It is not a fair game when those who are in power _are_ the ones deciding what can and cannot exist in the public scene, causing them to remain unchallenged, and prevents their political opponents from obtaining power by suppressing their use of the standard avenues of communication.
I have. Most long running commands of any kind blocks until it is done.
Linux and Wine open source ecosystem have always been resource constrained. For this reason, they have not been able to deliver the polish Proton brings to make the Linux gaming available for mass markets.

If DRM locked frontend like Steam is the price to pay for it, it is a small price. Eventually their changes get upstreamed and it improves the ecosystem overall.
proton now has an opt-in beta build
Not necessarily.

Rejection/objection handling and sheer persistence aside, I'm unsure if many of the sales tactics employed in door-to-door or high-pressure sales cross over into enterprise software sales.

From what I've seen, high-pressure sales relies heavily on manipulation (i.e. invoking feelings and emotions within the customer to drive them towards an outcome) over value, and encourage volume (i.e. grinding, hitting as many houses/people as you can) over quality (i.e. qualifying, qualifying again, then maintaining those relationships for as long as possible, providing value all throughout). They're the same techniques that people high on MLM pyramids or closers in call centers employ. FUD can go a long way.

Also, enterprise sales cycles are much, much longer. Six months is fast in this space. The deal sizes are much larger, so the process is worth it, but because high-pressure sales typically deals with much smaller amounts, closing fast is key.

More emphatic people can probably make the switch easily, but the less-sophisticated hustlers and pseudo-grifters would get outed pretty fast. Interestingly, the reporter of this article stated that the salesman they followed is interested in going into real estate and has already dabbled in crypto, where those personalities tend to do very well.

Also, many of the sales folks that I've interacted with did not have high-pressure sales backgrounds. In fact, many of them were engineers at one point or another!
>> (and for the feature that allowed me to change my emberassing old user name)

Still brutally pissed that after more than 10 years with the same account, and even with Premium, Reddit wont let me change my old short name, which is related to my deadname as a trans person.

Of course; support requests have been completely ignored.
Ok, correct. I did not know about that. Thanks for the clarification.
More commonly, the original transaction looked legit, but turns out after a few days not to be. A common medium is a cashier's check; they seem more "real" than checks, but they aren't really, and it can be a week or longer before you find out one is bogus.
I have no idea if it's related, but on chrome on my phone most of the page was solid yellow. Took a while to realize I'm supposed to scroll and the things show up.

I don't like this 'trend' of the things appearing with an animation as you scroll, I find it irritating and sometimes confusing.

Anyway, the problem here seems to be that the threshold is way too high, it only triggers when you scrolled the whole content away.
Same reason we recycle domains.

I think it’s “magic” in same sense that, say, Ubuntu used to be in the beginning. There were other distros too, but none did mix it all together for easy of use/polish. So ignore the hype and enjoy benefits to the ecosystem.
Thanks, would hiding the counter during the game and revealing the counter once finished work? Or you'd prefer to get rid of it completely?
> But last.fm doesn't do human review either, right?

No, but to be fair, that's not my use-case. My use-case is going to forums of like-minded individuals and saying "Hey, I need more music like _____. Take a look at my last.fm profile and suggest something I'd like."

I use it the same way book lovers use their Goodreads profile, I suppose?
Aw shucks,low compatibility.

Do you really think watching TV vs internet usage really different for warping political views?
It is the same thing, with two tiny changes:

1. different-size projected squares are replaced with same-size circles

2. the tweet's image puts the north pole on a corner; the projection on the upthread link puts the north pole on the face.

Keeping the corner at the north pole does make it easier to understand, but it's still a stereographic projection.
While too much of anything is detrimental, I don't find watching TV to be a waste if you are enjoying yourself. Recreation is important for mental health.
It's a bit more than flipping a switch with the anti cheat. Those are absurd systems which use every a bit of trickery on Windows to both detect any manipulation and hide themselves from being interfered with. They both load up as Windows drivers and check for things like enforced driver signature. Steam will need either perfect compatibility with everything they do, or EAC and others will need to cooperate to provide SteamOS-specific versions.

It's in EAC interest to not work on wine out of the box, otherwise it would be too easy to work around.
