Depending on your scale, things are really not that complicated. If you can run your company from a single machine, having two for redundancy, and two internet links for redundancy, will likely go a loooooooooong way until something bad happens...
Very interesting, thanks for the answers & video links.

I am imagining that the terminal inertial guidance --> imparting MIRV guidance phase must have been planned very delicately. Watching the adjustment rockets firing this way and that in the second video gives the intuitive sense that the process is far from easy to plan for.

>honest politician

There is no such thing

>helps no one, is just a punishment

Not true. This makes me feel better. That is invaluable.

I don't feel anything about that.

>helps people in peril regardless what their decision is

I don't feel anything about that.
I don't want to seem like I am defending crypto, but how is selling NFTs a scam? FTX was scam not because it was selling crypto but because it was an actual financial scam, a business breaking US laws.
Let's see someone go after Sequoia for their hagiography of SBF and FTX. While it could be argued that reasonable people shouldn't expect football players or supermodels to have done due diligence, they certainly expect a VC to have.
I can assure you I used the term in quotes because they are a plague on society.
> Please stop pretending that Twitter or Facebook censoring people is the same thing as China

If ~2-3 corporations control the speech, and they censor it according to their arbitrary whim and what the US government dictates as 'fake news' as the government wields the hammer of 'inquiries' that could lead to potential gigantic fines, even breakup over their heads, its the exact same thing with China's censorship.

The US government does not directly censor - it just 'outsources' the censorship to the 'free market' which has to do what the government wants or they will face inquiries, fines, regulations, break up or even persecution of their executives.

The same approach is employed in every other forms of repression and enforcement in US society too: The government does not repress people directly when they use their free speech dangerously. It just gets the police to enforce 'local ordinances' and then the courts make short work of the protesters by imposing fines on them for irrelevant things. Like how Occupy protesters were fined tens of thousands of dollars for 'trespassing' on PUBLIC property. No one's free speech was repressed. Its just that they were hooked up with fines and debt that will have them shut up and keep working like an indentured servant for decades to come in order to be able to pay those fines and debts.

> concentration camps

China does not have concentration camps. We, in the rest of the world have fed up with the constant smears and lies that the US media directs against the enemy they target. Each of our countries have passed from the same smear machine's target sights at least once in the past 60 years. The very fac that you are able to repeat such a smear on the public Internet without hesitating for even a second tells how strong is the censorship and control of 'free speech' in the US and its satellites.

Its not even 20 years after the tale of nonexistent Iraqi WMDS. You people still buy what is sold to you unquestioningly and ironically assert that you have 'free speech'.

One does not even need to mention the doublespeak of other countries having 'concentration camps', where in the US, actual slave labor are just called 'the private prison system'. The former 'concentration camp' de-radicalizes actual head-cutting terrorists, teaches them sciences, trades, and reintegrates them to the society as productive members free of charge. The latter just incarcerates people for trivial reasons to use them slave labor for their life. But the former is a 'rights problem'. Not the latter. You just 'rephrase' slavery differently, and its not slavery.

> They want to sell ads, not dominate the world.

They are appendages of the establishment that has over 800 military bases around the world. Especially around the targeted countries like China. So save that 'not wanting to dominate the world' thing.
Emulators are not remotely normal software. If there's any static or dynamic binary translation at all, there's a lot of architecture-specific stuff you gotta know.
Seconded. Bought the Criterion box set, never regretted it. Looks fabulous in the home theatre.
Oh cool. I thought it was coincidence.

BTW, there is also “active meditation”. And there’s “shadow work” and Gestalt therapy, which are both forms of actively playing out the contents of your subconscious mind (though in different forms).
> Why should anyone care/use CI/CD software because Codeberg uses it?

Woodpecker is community-run, and Codeberg is a non-profit running the biggest Gitea instance.

> You speak negatively of Gitea, highlighting a fork because they were working on a CI

The for-profit Gitea company released the integrated CI/CD that should not be trusted because it was a code dump and worked on in secret. You can read more about the hostile takeover of Gitea at the open letter https://gitea-open-letter.coding.social

> Woodpecker which itself is a fork of Drone CI

Drone CI is not open source, and does not respect user freedoms.
I found a bug in the tesla model 3 reservation system that allowed anyone to get a reservation for free. Reported it via hackerone (or maybe it was bugcrowd dont remember) and got told it was of no consequence and would be filtered out later or something. Got no bounty for hours of work.

I accidentally ordered my model 3 with a free reservation, not the one I actually paid for.

Supporting local manufacturing helps to build resilience in the supply chain. Outsourcing everything to another country can be great for margins but it adds risk via external dependencies.
So, reducing to the actual difference we have … “not them” and “promises to be different from them” …

As someone using neither of them Im genuinely perplexed why anyone trying to work in this space thinks they have a snowballs chance in hell of long term survival if they don’t have some level of critical mass. If the moment the mass reaches critical and business organisation is needed to deal with the legal and business stuff… this whole debacle is a very hardline open source philosophy shitshow and I fully expect this splinter group to eventually fail with the longer term survival of the parent project now less certain because they lost some of that critical mass right at a crucial moment in their growth towards a sustainable level of business cashflow (which is a necessary evil in order for developers working in any software to make a god damn living and not die starving in a gutter) …

So yeah, please tell me why your promises make you qualitatively better at something I would care about?

If your business/community are getting the bulk of their growth from the community of people being alienated from a much larger, older, platform… it behoves you to not make it harder for people to choose you from the other options as they walk out the proverbial door.

Still trying to understand how it all works but maybe there could be some agreed way of creating rooms, like naming them after sub Reddits.
Maybe we can stop pretending "muh free speech" is something more than a right wing talking point, and what these "free speech absolutists" actually want is to prop up right wing talking points and ban left leaning ones. Just stop the lying about.
Well, one thing that makes Rust harder is tooling. I don't seem to get around its code completion, at least in VSCode, and the docs, while mostly good, are hard to understand sometimes

I personally don't like that "structures with methods" way of doing things in Rust/Go but maybe that's just about getting accustomed
Nowadays I read it once a week or so -- I think ?

It's a great community, but much of it just the same again and again. What great content in specific do you feel you lose ?

It's interesting.. I don't have TV anymore, and basically just focus on doing my work and spending time with my family/friends ... used to do a lot of side projects / read a lot of HN ... hasn't been the case for a couple of years now.

Guess I'm getting older :)
Trithemius in particular stands out for me.

His steganography was ingenious, concealed not just behind steganographical techniques, but also by a double veil of taboo and law: it presented itself as demonology, thus pious readers would avoid it altogether, and impious ones would think twice, given the power and reach of the Inquisition.

Brilliant!
I would love for Larry David to go about his defense fully in character: "Your Honor, I stand by my statements in the advertisement, and still don't recommend anyone to put their money in FTX. Furthermore, I still think stone wheels are a bad idea, prefer natural light, defecating outdoors and doing my dishes while in the shower. As for stupid people voting and their portable music players, I despise them with a burning passion".

Probably not solid legal advice even in a trivial case such as this, but would be so funny to watch.
I'm a big fan of Adam Curtis' movies, and this is awesome for taking the piss, love it haha! I'd like to think he'd find it funny too.
"In use" is quite a stretch for Spin Launch; to my knowledge they've only launched the one test. Also a centrifuge is not really similar to a gun.

Lol, if you knew how much python code runs the world without even checking for exceptions, or with a try/except/pass ... and the world keeps on spinning.

"professionally written code" made me chuckle
> More recent ones give enormous latitude to the company's management.

That's the problem with common law - more recent ones set a different 'precedent'. The next case can set a totally different 'precedent' and you as a ceo can be part of that 'precedent'.

Still evaluates to the same.
Ostensibly, to support candidates they think will have a positive impact on society. Naive maybe, but it is a possibility at least that people donate honestly to support causes they think are good.
Text to speech is pretty much a solved question at this point, but nobody said it will replace voice actors, nor did it. It conquered TikTok, I'll give you that, but that's barely an accomplishment.

For me AI art is the same thing. It can give you serviceable material in a very fast time, but that's it. It's a Big Mac of the art industry. It's not gonna kill artists like how McDonald's didn't kill restaurants or even rival fast food chains or gourmet hamburger shops, because the only thing redeemable in AI art is you get variations of well-known styles (putting "trending on ArtStation" in the prompt to make it look good is a thing. let that sink in).
When the referendum was announced, the expected result was in the neighborhood of 60/40, but “Yes” made big unexpected gains. At one point shortly before the vote opinion polling collapsed the “No” lead as low as 51/49. Cameron panicked and started making wild promises (aye, exactly like with the Brexit vote). The result pulled back a bit, but the SNP were energized. They almost reached 50% in the next general election and have completely dominated Scottish politics since.
This argument is nonsensical. The only way to accomplish that would be to ban all product endorsements outright. Do you want to hold celebrities who endorsed VW cars liable for the VW diesel scandal? How about actors who endorsed anything that ended up being not what it was presented to be? I hate advertisement and would love for it to not exists. But if we allow its existence you can't expect all participants to conduct a deep investigation before uttering a word.
Can that file only contain a single frame, or could it trivially contain a full video with one PNG per frame?
that's true, but his lieutenants were major donors to republican candidates -- Ryan Salame was advertised as a budding "republican megadonor" at events
I don't get the strong opposition to it. Yes, CO2 is a byproduct. And yes, that CO2 might leak out of the wells. But it would still be much better than the status quo, which is hydrogen from fossil fuels, with the CO2 being emitted 100%.

Hydrogen is very much needed for chemical synthesis (ammonia for fertiliser), and can also be used to make steel. Using this would be much better than blue hydrogen. A good pragmatic solution until we have green hydrogen.
no, he's merely noting that the FTX inner circle gave to both sides, which is important information.
>that the implementation is required to be correct?

No. "Implemented" is in fact irrelevant, it is clearly not the term to use here. Because what the implementation uses is irrelevant, the question is about whether computability in one can be derived from computability of the other.
In his example the implementation also uses ".length", whether it does or doesn't is irrelevant though. Since it is not a question of implementation.

>This is beyond nitpicking.

Also known as standard practice in mathematics.
Thanks for the clarification. I’m not a crypto dev or into crypto much but I’m not into the idea of banning people for “wrong code”, “wrong speak” or idealogical reasons so I’ll be sure to stay away from sourceHut, Ddevault and codeberg.

Good luck to you none the less.
That’s great unless the kid down the road throws stones at them and they decide to declare war on all humans.

The Free Software movement originates in academia and has academic value - they don't care about receiving direct compensation, but attribution is critical, and attribution is what image generation models can't provide.
Who would have ever imagined that one of the first groups to be unemployed by AI would be artists?

I can imagine a new chain of mall stores where you come in and a counselor creates a series of prototypes after chatting with you. Pick the one you want and they will 'paint' and frame it while you wait.
But equity is supposed to go up in value because of profit and growth and whatnot, not just in price. That's why you buy it. At least in a normal universe. They still need to know there was a scam going on to be culpable for it.

Though I can see taking whatever cash payments they got back, if it rightfully belongs to scammed customers.
man how many times does the list need to explain to you that Salame was a republican megadonor.
Ok now you're turning this into a semantic argument. My view is you either did your best or you didn't because there were things (perhaps outside your control) that prevented you or whatever it may be, and hey - that's OK, but I just don't go around lying to myself or whoever else that I did the best I could when that happens.
This hydrogen is from the fossil fuel underground, correct?

The CO2 still is getting emitted in this plan, near as I can tell?
The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position that it was, is now the position that it isn't.
In the event that the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has acquired a variation, the variation being the difference between where the missile is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too may be corrected by the GEA. However, the missile must also know where it was.
The missile guidance computer scenario works as follows. Because a variation has modified some of the information the missile has obtained, it is not sure just where it is. However, it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be from where it wasn't, or vice-versa, and by differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was, it is able to obtain the deviation and its variation, which is called error.
SQL, 4GL, low-code, no-code. They've all promised a world in which managers can be coders by communicating their needs in a humanlike language. They never achieve that goal but each step does open up software development to a larger audience, including some managers. They also tend to increase the appetite for even more software, netting a desire for even more developers.
could really use carlin right about now
Why stop at financial products? If a celebrity advertises a car as safe and then someone close to you dies in a crash, should you not hold that celebrity accountable? Why didn't they look into all claims about safety of those cars?
yeah news articles really tend to highlight the "controversial" aspect. Unfortunately they are also the hardest ones to scrape...
This is like having a conversation with a wall.
Then they should share their knowledge with the rest of us and produce more good managers.
The major problem is that the AI companies are redirecting the profit from artists to themselves. The creative industry will remain, but artists won't be able to receive even one penny, companies could just 1) grab their work with absolute zero payment, 2) fine-tune a new model 3) profit on the style. Artist as a job will cease to exist very soon as they are becoming free suppliers for AI companies. Like, Uber with remote drivers controlling cars, but all drivers work for free as they claim all cars are capable of "self-driving". How is this acceptable and legal is beyond my understanding.
Maybe cuckoos do this to breed birds for their acceptance of cuckoos eggs, which might help birds learning to accept them.
That's a great article, and balancing free speech with censorship is a difficult problem. But it becomes a constant headache only on centralized platforms, where no amount of resources can realistically monitor and filter all content. This scales in complexity as the platform grows, which is the goal of any centralized service. And if the business model depends on advertising, it becomes even messier and crucial to its existence.

P2P services OTOH work on a decentralized and pull model. Users share and only subscribe to the content they're interested in. Censorship is distributed, and it's a problem for people who don't wish to see specific content. It's the way the internet works, and the existing approach of removing sensitive content applies to P2P services as well. Since there are no advertisers to appease, it's not an existential problem.
I find it incredibly funny to read "every time crypto implodes" in a statement that is positive about crypto. A system that keeps imploding and the only reason it's not staying dead is stuff like Tether cooking their books at fusion temperatures seems like it might be a net negative for humanity, no?

It's also weird to see people repeating - at scale - mistakes from the past, as if following a playbook. Finance regulation is a pretty well researched and historically attested field? I suppose greed tops all.
Yes, that’s generally a good thing to do. This tool has the potential to be much more useful for consumers of your service to document it or interact with it.
Seems like Rust is hitting peak popularity right now so there are tons of people out there feeling slightly insecure about their new language and needing to defend it every time someone picks a competitor.
> developers working in any software to make a god damn living and not die starving in a gutter

There are many examples of opensource developers receiving full time payment from the community. Krita, Godot, and more all exist long term.

You can earn a living, and respect user freedoms.
that does sound like a useful feature for uses like this, but I've never heard of it (and many phones probably come with different camera apps provided by the manufacturer... I have no idea if the Camera app on my Motorola phone is the stock one or not...).
Using a binary can be (in my experience, 99% of the time) an enormous convenience and performance boost over including a whole runtime for those languages.
Love the concept, well done.

There’s a lot of places with a ton of solar though, and you can use that for hydrogen.

It could be a potential export from the Middle East. They also have the infra already.
yeah, no. sometimes apple just decides to reinvent the wheel instead of using the cross-platform universal standard that everyone else is using. being frustrated by this is both understandable and obvious. apple's obstinance and complete refusal to implement vulkan is a large reason why game developers don't release games for the mac. thank god some third party decided to make a vulkan translation layer because that is one of the primary reasons macos has any games at all.
As far as I know, people do not have to disclose payment for TV ads because that would make TV advertising dead. Rather, I'm thinking more from the perspective that getting the CEO of a company (unbeknownst to the viewers) to pump up the company without saying they are a substantial insider is the problematic part. The issue is not failing to disclose payment but failing to disclose that your true relationship.
I know this is from a 90's Air Force video.. but it sounds like he's reading the script straight off a corporate patent application.
Sorry that was a rhetorical comment, meant to imply that the top performers understood what the current management was like and noped the hell out of there
This is a good example of changing the goal posts.

Your claim means that the Nintendo switch is not a gaming platform.

A AAA game is not denoted by how many platforms it releases on the first day.

Your other comment about mobile games is just another form of gatekeeping. Again the Switch is mobile gaming and would not meet your criteria.
“Free and open” is all well and good as long as everyone is super nice. But the people preaching freeness and openness are most often the bad guys. It’s a notion that can easily be abused to pitch totalitarianism to the disempowered because it seems like a good idea in principle, but the world has existing power structures. If you take the state now as “free and open” and attempt to preserve it, you cement those power structures in place.
”What does individualism even mean if it isn't visible?” This beautifully sums up east vs west.
Highly recommend reading Eric Schlosser's fantastic book Command and Control. It goes into great detail about the failings at the Damascus Incident, but also features some truly hair-raising accounts of other near-catastrophic nuclear near-misses.

You have…

- App Store (OSX and many IOS)

- Steam

- Epic Store

- Blizzard Store

- Crossover and Parallels to do some windows games.

- Mame and it’s like exist.

- You even have free games on GitHub.

If you can’t find the games the issue isn’t with the Mac.
