I don’t like self-promoting in comments but this feels incredibly coincidental. Just a few days ago I published an iOS app called Beluga which tries to reproduce a “Twitter-like” experience on top of JSON Feed (with some extensions) and RSS. The app does all the work on the device and uses an S3 compatible account to publish a feed and a statically generated mini-site.

Do you currently keep up with every clause in every contract and law? Doesn't seem like a new problem.
I've done the same for years. I think most of the ill effects of mate come to people because they're "overdosing" inadvertently.

If you steep a "tea" quantity of mate, I've found it to produce a remarkably long-lived, smooth, non-jittery sense alertness.

The only times I've ever felt like how coffee or black tea make me feel, is when I put in a 1/4 cup of mate and drink it the traditional way.
Why do you claim that renewal price is $12? How did you come up with that number?

The article also mentioned money going to other people working on the game. Unclear how's much that is though.

Edit: this also touches on a grievance I have with progressive taxation and annualized retirement savings. These guys might have been in a Lowe tax bracket for many years and be back in a low tax bracket depending on how sales go over the years. The one time they hit it home they are in the top tax bracket and can only max out tax advantages from retirement contributions for that one year. They'd be in a much better position in this regard of their income was spread out. The entire system is build assuming people earn pretty much the same year to year. Same for other self-funded founders with exits.

I don't know what percent of jobs could really be WFH. Not everyone is a programmer. Do we really expect healthcare, education, construction, transportation to shift to WFH?

I also believe that WFH increases total miles driven because people are more willing to move to rural areas where driving to do anything is longer.
If it is narcissism (never their fault, poor self-esteem, big external ego, manipulative, entitlement, can create a good impression then backstab) then it depends on whether it is a friend, or yourself.

If your friend has narcissist tendencies, the usual advice is to very carefully extricate yourself, there is little hope of change. See https://youtube.com/@SurvivingNarcissism Skip first 40 seconds and the last 2 minutes of his vids.

If it is you, then seek the opinions of others on your faults, without hitting back with excuses. We can easily see faults in others. It is hard to see faults in ourselves, and even harder to change our behaviours. See https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CUp5iBYroBA

I agree there is a problem with high healthcare costs, and food costs especially now.

However what we saw with covid stimulus and unemployment wasn’t the “everyone’s now an artist” outcome that is suggested with UBI.

We definitely saw creatives able to express and build their visions into the world, thanks to the money and additional time.

But we also saw, and still have ongoing, many people who choose not to work [0]. Some percent of these people are suffering from substance abuse. Not to say this is purely the outcome of UBI, but I can’t imagine it helps those individuals with such proclivities for abuse.

Personally I think we should have a good UBI at the least, qualified for individuals who make under a certain amount and who are able and working, or legitimately looking for a job.

There’s a reason many trust fund kids go broke or dive into substance abuse. Sure there are examples of families who would not do this under similar circumstances, but giving out money for no work (assuming one is able to work), leads to hedonic pleasures unless the individual is purposely aware and trying to avoid such sand traps.

It's hardly surprising as amelioration starts to hit, the economic losers bring out the army of voices to try and head off things. And, it would be foolish to assume this is not what's going on, because every single prior case of regulatory end of life for an industry has included this kind of "growing skepticism" -including well meaning skeptics who independently voice positions which are leveraged into "told you so" positions in opposition. (see a well known UK "alternative energy cannot scale" website by a now dead statistician which is very well written but is also now 15-20 years behind improvements in science)

I am completely not shocked that this is being seen, and more importantly being reported on. I would be amazed if it's not picked up and carried by News Ltd which has a significant AGW amplification posture, despite its denials.

If you want a clear signal of change, look to the Insurance industry and defence. Both have a requirement to consider 20-50 year window investment consequences. Both are pretty confident that AGW has costs they want to start to understand. They started this posture several decades ago. I don't see the insurance or re-insurance industry as a bunch of Kumbayah singers, nor defence-materials industry and strategic investment. If they see a problem, then its pretty damn real.

I think the insurance industry is going to declare parts of Louisiana and Florida an insurance free zone. If you want to live there, be super rich and self-insure, or be very poor and wear the loss. The middle ground is told to go elsewhere.
I don't think that would apply if it is possible to compile the app yourself and install your modified version by side loading it.
Is there a way to provably destroy a piece of information? The closest thing I heard of was the Z-Cash "ceremony" [1]. If there was, we could create messages that are provably and absolutely timestamped.

Another possible way would be crafting the message in a way that requires a low-entropy system, like a living human person, a sophisticated computer, or an immense power source. But, this would only be useful on extreme time scales, or within limited space.

I think you can also speed this up by incrementing i to the next candidate window end (increment by window_length - count). I.e. given "abcdefggqwertyu", if your previous window was "[abcdefg]" and you see that "g" conflicted so you reset count to 0, the next possible window is "[gqwerty]". So you don't have go through the intermediate windows like "[efgqgq]" because you know that count can never be 4 within there.

Edit: I think your solution already effectively does this, it's just that because you maintain invariant that the window always contains unique chars to avoid any additional datastructure, once the window start gets reset to "[g]" it needs to build back up the intermediate state one char a time to works it way back up to [gqwerty]. So the best case is approximately linear if count gets reset often, worst case is O(NW). The method I was thinking of directly tests the next window starting from its endpoint backwards, to do this you need a hashet. I think that would achieve on best case O(N/W) effectively sublinear, worst case is still O(NW) though.
In another subthread, we realized my memory was wrong and we were measuring millisecond collisions. The serving ID imbalance was a side-effect. Also, it might've been an int16 I was thinking of but turns out the whole thing was shadows on cave walls.
> You can say a lot of negative things about Apple, but their incentives lined up with the end users more often than companies like Meta and Google.

I would say this is one, and by far the most important case, where Apple's incentives aggressively oppose those of the end users'.

Whether this is enough to tip the balance of which company is 'worse' is a value judgment, but I cannot fathom how people argue in good faith for this blatantly anti-consumer and anti-fundamental-freedom vertical monopoly that is enforced with strong crypto. Crypto should be working for the user, not against them to secure Apple's ability to rent seek on all economic activity that passes through the user's device. And no, the two are not fundamentally coupled, as Apple will have you believe.

You can print more crypto. You can't print more Bitcoin.

You could make a competitor to Bitcoin, and thereby print money that way, but it takes energy. It takes energy to make new Bitcoins. And people can't use their energy for two things at once, they have to pick one. Only one blockchain can (in the long term) maintain and secure a position, the one with the longest proof-of-work chain. The others won't remain stable.

Mathematics takes time and energy. The more Bitcoin secures itself the more the other crypto gets pushed out of the mining market.
Exactly the opposite: their task, assigned by Congress, is weapons work. Period.

But pretending to work on "carbon-free energy" is good for funding, just now. Four years ago, being all about weapons opened the tap.

Make no mistake, there is no story here. There will be no "unlimited free energy" from this, or any other fusion project. The fusion startups are spending down investors' money with zero possibility of payback (Helion conceivably excepted), because if they did get Q>1, they have no workable way to harness it. ITER will not even try to produce one watt-second of electricity. Its follow-on demo reactor won't start building until 2050, if not further delayed.

We know the way to get unlimited free energy: solar. Build more, get more. It doesn't have bomb scientists making inflated claims; it just works, and better every year.

It’s as if the original comment is jealous more than anything else.
I remember a cute trick Windows did (at least in the ~XP days) where if a window had focus, it got more CPU cycles. You could, for instance, create two identical console windows running a program that just does math in a loop, and if you give focus to one of them and let them churn, it will start to out-strip the other.

Of course, the underlying problem is that it's not always easy to know where the user's attention is (or if they have walked away, as you mention), but it was a simple "somewhat right" trick.
yes, after that, the chosen letter location should immediately automatically be clicked. It's optimized for Linux, but the Windows version should work the same. Maybe I missed something? I'll fix the latter tomorrow if so.
I started drinking Mate later in life, and definitely recall it sitting weirdly in my stomach at first. You might want to try drinking it in smaller concentrations? i.e. steeping for less time, with a smaller quantity of "tea".

A random theory, but since the chemical profile of Mate is quite different from coffee, it might be your body going through selective withdrawal from coffee that's producing the "weird" effect.
Or who thought they deserve more than their game cost! I just sent them $100 on top of the $30 I spent on the game.

But where do the ads go? How do publishers or authors (or content aggregators) monetize the content? The reason RSS is dead (unfortunately) and social media is very much alive is because of a pact between content aggregators, publishers, creators, and advertisers.
I’ve played for about two hours over the last decade. So playing the game hasn’t given me all that much pleasure. But I got considerably more pleasure reading Let’s Plays, so I dropped the 30bux on general principle. Congratulations to them.
Be that as it may, a number of positions at LLNL, including many of those affiliated with NIF, require that candidate is a US person and is eligible for a DOE security clearance. A security clearance is not necessarily binary on being a US person, but a number of national-security related positions may require not only the clearance, but also that the candidate is a US person (or outright forbid foreign nationals.)
Hey! Glad you find it useful. I spent probably five hours yak-shaving/bikeshedding on it one weekend afternoon and figured it would be nice if maybe it'll save some other people some time tweaking the UI.
I'm sorry dude, I definitely meant at least 200k, not no more than 200k. Source: I am the world's leading expert in what I meant. I honestly can't see how that can be misunderstood, either. You said SC2 gets 25k views, and I said, "The reason LoL gets 100-200k is..." and then went on to talk about how much better funded LoL is. How can you read that any other way than, "The reason LoL gets so many more viewers than SC2 is..." ?

> ...by an entire order of magnitude...

I chose such a low number, ironically, to avoid a conversation like this one. When you're suggesting that a number is high (as I was), it makes sense to choose a lower bound because it makes your claim stronger. Suppose I had said that LoL events get 5M - then you could've replied, "Nuh uh, here's an event that only got 1M views!" If I had said 1M, you could've said, "Well here's one that only got 500k!" I chose the lowest number I could that would still support my point (which, again was that LoL gets a lot more viewers than SC2), to be more confident no one could argue with it.

If you respond, could you please clarify what you think my argument was? You said I made up a number to make my argument more legitimate. What argument? What could I have been arguing that would've been strengthened by suggesting LoL's viewership is lower than it really is?

Mio Mio Ginger Mate was acceptable, but not good. But they also had something Guarana Pomegrenade, which was better. While were at Ginger, ever tried Bundaberg? :-) Lux Mate Mint sounds interesting, but never had it, so far.
hohlraums are not expensive because of base materials, but because today we generally produce them as one offs and the process is incredibly man hour intensive. The DOE "roundtable" on the announcement today addressed this.

That's called bankruptcy. And it happens with great regularity. Note that even viable businesses can go bankrupt, all you have to do is mess up the payment on enough bills that your creditors have a credible case that you are in default and no longer willing or able to fulfill your obligations.
I was playing Diablo 3 one evening (I use my real name), and the guy who I was grouped with was streaming on Twitch. Reasonably big name streamer. He looked up my name, found my personal resume website, played the small game on there. His viewers play the game. It is just some super simple stupid little space invaders game. Next day I wake up to several hundred emails in my inbox from various people just randomly talking about game dev and software development. Several trolls of course. Couple of "are you interested in a job?" pings. An interesting phenomenon.
I'd wager it's because of the step back the player takes from the actual world. Like, Dwarf Fortress adventure mode exists, but it gets tedious. Carefully deciding which molar of your opponent to grab while grappling isn't the most engaging gameplay. But when you take a step back, and are making general instructions to your dwarves like "Go fight these goblins", the added complexity makes for some very memorable moments.

Combine that with a gameplay loop that basically demands a sprawling amount of new things to do (since the dwarves basically handle themselves in the steady state), and you've got a recipe for some truly expansive games.

Plus every modern game in the genre is directly inspired by Dwarf Fortress, who is made by someone who really seems like he just wanted a way to get people interested in his high fantasy world simulator.

RSS doesn't have any concept of interaction between users. In social media, replies to posts are delivered to all of the original post's recipients.
My point is in relation to the post above, where its about Apple's marketing. It is improving, but it looks different to the average consumer when you say ""we have improved the security of x" as opposed to "we have fixed these existing defects that did x".

In relation to someone being annoyed that Apple doesn't openly say the former. It's because of their marketing and image that they say the latter, it always have been.

"The increased traffic risks among unvaccinated individuals extended to diverse subgroups, was similar to the relative risk associated with sleep apnea, and was equal to a 48% increase after adjustment for age, sex, home location, socioeconomic status, and medical diagnoses."
Do you have a Yaupon brand you can recommend? I tried some in college and found the taste too bitter (like the leaves had been improperly-stored for way too long, kind of like how basil tastes when poorly-dried).

But I'm very into the idea of finding a good Yaupon, insofar as it reduces the carbon footprint of shipping things around the world & such.
It also can serve as a decent primary air barrier as long you don't put big holes in it.
Never made sense how any software would consider the year value as _two characters_ when an integer works far better. There's even a 0 epoch date for crying out loud.

Seeing "Fairlight" and "Floppy" in the same sentence probably recalls a different set of memories among some others here. My first thought was wondering whether they had released anything on 8" floppies.
> But where do the ads go?

If we look to podcasts as a model — 490K new episodes in the last 90 days, delivered to users and to aggregators alike via "not dead yet" RSS — ads are placed inline with the content. There is no RSS-related "pact" that precludes the relationships you mentioned.

Related analyst estimate: "US podcast ad spending will surpass $2 billion in 2023 and will account for nearly one-third of digital audio services ad spending." https://www.insiderintelligence.com/content/us-podcast-adver...
Eh, the ‘mistake’ was intentional, near as I can tell.

I remember those days before snowflake and Blaine was desperately trying to keep the lights on. It's why no one had time to talk to us (marketers and related disciplines) back then. Even Facebook said "all our focus is on acquiring users. You have no choice but to meet us on our terms because we own the eyeballs." Everything was growing so fast. Hard to believe that was only a decade ago.
