I can’t get over that I posted this comment emphasizing that there needed to be more direct coverage of this space and asking what people thought they wanted that to look like and literally everyone who responded minus, like, one person, seemed to focus only on a side comment I made about onboarding.

It’s disappointing, if you ask me.
Can you prevent an app from doing this by declining? How long has that permission system existed? And what does that permission system do to apps that predate the permission system?

On windows you can just add any global handler you want, and there’s now no way to prevent apps from doing that since that would be a breaking change.
On the web, you can get the final bundle down to about 60k gzipped, which is comparable to react.

The average desktop/mobile binary is less than 2mb, but that’s with zero size optimizations to shrink the output. You can certainly get less.

Dioxus runs on a native thread and renderers into the webview, so there’s very little JS footprint and the render resources are shared among all webview on your system.

I haven’t experimented with it, but it’s entirely possible to run on a raspi with webkitgtk. We’re building a native renderer with WGPU and already support rendering to the terminal.
Non totally optimum performance is not really a problem. The real problem is that USA is huge and cover many different climates. If you drove a car from Florida to NY without taking this in mind, in theory you could end with a non working car stuck in the middle of a dangerous blizzard

I think that there is even a -5W grade for people in really extreme climates like Canada, Russia or Alaska, but I never had seen it. Maybe somebody here uses it?

The last number in oil grades will be 20, 30 or 40 typically for cars. 20 will lubricate pieces faster.
Yep, and they aren't even covered by some basic pollution standards, so they pollute a lot more than the equivalent in land or air vehicles.
Fascinating find. Not a financials guy, but my quick look at the RIOT filing says they are operating at a loss for the 2020 year. Bitcoin price has seen a significant drop since then, which would compound their losses.
No, but they would want it to be.

I asked, “Are you advocating a system where giving airtime to certain ideas, but not including incitement, would be punishable?”

They answered in the affirmative.

The justification being that entertaining certain ideas itself constitutes harm (because entertaining ideas may be proximate to harm or “increases the likelihood of harm”).

We also got into definitions of “harm”, which, in my view, were expansive. (In the sense that nearly anything could be rationalized as resulting in harm.)
“ Also, the language in the bill continually refers to High-Volume Sellers. The bill defines such sellers as having at least 200 or more discrete transactions, totaling $5,000 or more in gross revenues over any continuous 12-month period during the previous 24 months.”

“Individuals that are high-volume sellers will only need to provide their name. However, sellers that are not individuals (businesses) must provide a valid personal government ID on behalf of the seller (business) or provide a valid government-issued record or tax document that includes the business name and physical address.”

“ There are exceptions to the contact disclosure requirement if the seller does not have a dedicated business address. That means sellers that only operate out of their residential home address or have a shared residential/business address will only have their country and state (if applicable) disclosed. However, shoppers will be informed that no business address exists for this seller and the only communication available between the two parties will be through phone (personal numbers exempted from disclosure – again shoppers will be told), email, or the platform’s messaging system.”

Literally all of the concerns you keep bringing up are addressed in the bill.
You mean like OPEC does on a fairly regular basis?
Code is harder to read than to write, news at 11.
Anyone saying that 20K year revenue is a "high-volume business seller" is out of his mind (this might be sponsored though).
But we can tell.
I sent OP $1000

Sharing this here in the hope it inspires others who have the means to do the same.
No doubt this kind of thing happened, but people also just changed their names over time because it's easier. One of my grandfather's brother migrated to Canada in the 50s, and he now goes by "Vanderloo" or "Vanderlo" (not entirely sure how he spells it) instead of "Van der Loo".

Same people Dutch people named Martijn or Maarten, who will often use Martin abroad. Johan Cruijff is typically known as Cruyff abroad, etc.

Enough is relative, but the price efficiency sweet spot is very sticky.
> why the hell is vitamin C so important to us and how it helps fight off diseases.

Vitamin C puts the immune system into overdrive, which not only helps prevent infection in the first place, it also lessens severity and reduces illness duration if infected.
I think you guys are talking past each other.

It doesn't matter what happens to the rest of the network--- you'll win the same number of blocks per year, whether you're the only miner or one of many miners. You'll win a greater proportion of blocks if there's fewer miners, but the same number overall.

Only difficulty changing changes this.
In my experience that's backwards; Arch and Gentoo are far better at telling you exactly what you need to stay backwards compatible and letting you do it than the fancy commercial distros are. (E.g. compare the difficulty of running the original Linux release of Quake 3 on those distros).
LiveView here describes the approach, not the integration with phoenix. Multi-window support is coming. You can hack it together today, but we’re actively upgrading the core architecture to support multiple renderers per UI tree for declarative multi-window setups.
I’m curious about it but when clicking on the link to “Documentation” I got 404’ed by GitHub with a push to “read the full documentation”.

I had better luck at ximpel.net, taking a look at it now.
Well, that example was about a Navajo community. Quite a long way from the Pine Ridge rez. Very different people and culture.

They gave that as an example in response to the claim that the abuse of natives is historical and not actively happening. While it is not directly damage done to the occupants of Pine Ridge, it does demonstrate that the sort of injustices that destroy native communities are still occurring.
I'm glad other people can see this too. I keep being disappointed by modern journalism, and to be clear I mean from multiple sources across political divides. I hear a cacophony of lament towards Fox News, particularly Tucker Carlson. Yeah, I agree. But I put Rachel Maddow and Don Lemon under the same microscope. It makes me feel like I don't fit in anywhere. I guess I'm too much of an engineer. Just give me the data and I'll parse it myself. Everything else seems to have become corporate and ideological manipulation. "Oh, you're already angry about person X (of should be), just wait until we tell you their latest tweet. You'll practicaly sponteously combust (or should according to us)."

The ones that like to critique a certain someone for fomenting hate seem to be fomenting quite a lot of it themselves lately. I'm not convinced there is as much racial divide as I'm told by the news. Nor as mich divide in regards to gender.

Sorry, long response. I'm just really frustrated at being so consistently lied to by "official sources".
That pithy Vanguard piece is for lump sums and states “Our research indicates that it's prudent to invest a lump sum immediately” without any backing evidence.

And the article contradicts itself: it basically says do whatever makes you feel best. Arrrgh.
You should host your own copy of Tailwind CSS. As-is, it looks broken with uMatrix.
This is effectively a restatement of my premise, though I think you're also missing the larger scale of non-social (epistemic, marketing, advocacy) roles.

When Twitter was small, it didn't offer mass-scale socialising. What it did offer is far more comparable to Mastodon now.

When Twitter did develop sufficient critical mass, at least within a specific context, it became compelling in ways that compensated for any onboarding difficulties. That occurred in niches initially: tech early-adopters, the Arab Spring (a/k/a the Twitter Revolution, seen then as a Good Thing), and in particular, journalists, who live and die on hot takes and quick access.

(I'm watching the accommodation of the latter to Mastodon / the Fediverse with interest and amusement. Some factors that created strong appeal on Twitter are (still) lacking on Mastodon.)
Presumably the distinction is between people who use eBay like a virtual garage sale (selling only sporadically) and people who use eBay as an ongoing source of income.
Sure, but how much more than they penalize for quitting? Their limit is pretty much how much they can dishonestly withhold from the last paycheck, and considering the shitty pay, probably minimal.

But true, the key is to read the contracts in detail and find the least costly way out.

Or, better yet, to read it before starting and realize that the only winning move is to not play the game.
AAA game updates run to 100+ GiB these days? That can’t be right?
It's fine but then you're in "The Onion" territory. WWN has an "interesting" take on what is news, but weirdly gets some things right.
I think your points add much needed nuance, but isn't there a possibility that both are true? I.e., both your examples may be true for Native Americans in present-day Mexico while the OP's point could be true for other groups like the Lakota at Pine Ridge. (I'm not claiming any knowledge on the subject, just questioning whether both points have to be mutually exclusive)
Meta refuses to give me access to- or delete my Instagram account.

A few years back I changed the e-mail to a fake e-mail. I accidentally typo’d my mobile phone number due to which it now resolves with a Philippines prefix. This prevents me from verifying their ‘looks like you’re trying to do a suspicious log-in’

They won’t give access or delete my account despite:

- me knowing the current password

- providing old passwords

- indicating to them the old e-mail address to my account

- verifying that I have access to that e-mail account

- verifying that I own the ‘old’ phone number to the account with a phone bill (!)

- indicating I am willing to provide a scanned ID

- indicating two friend on my ‘following’ list that would be willing to verify its me trying to access the account

At this point I have pretty much done 5-factor authentication and they still won’t accede.

Thankfully I am an EU citizen and the data commissions are currently extremely trigger happy with GDPR fines, so my hope is this forced them to resolve it, or make it cost them tens to hundreds of millions for not doing so.

Fuck you and your scummy illegal practices, Meta :)
You can get down to less than 60k. It’s just the average binary that links in various system resources with no size optimizations comes out at around 1.5mb. Tiny for desktop!
one piece that is omitted from this is how the border is enforced. From the looks of it, unless you’re looking at becoming employed here they don’t really check your citizenship. That’s a win in my book.

Reminds me that when I was a kid you could travel to / from Canada without a passport (only nation with that privilege if I recall correctly) and now you can’t. I recall no real good reasoning for it other than the DOH wanted to close the loop hole, without any real evidence it was a cause of issues
You don't know what you missed buddy, feel sorry for you.
Quick reply to point out that the saying you referenced is "a stitch in time saves nine" and not "a stitch in time always saves nine". By including never in what he said, Pullman was being unnecessarily bombastic, in my opinion, especially when there are egregious counter-examples to what he was saying such as having loved a person who did you a tremendous harm (some sort of abusive relationship) and then, following his advice, remaining silent about that harmful person because your love was 'once real'.
And what does one do when you meet in person and no longer have the witty AI to carry your conversation?
My guess is that 80% are good at assessing risk, but most of us are either born or raised to be compliant, so this assessment doesn't relate well to outcomes.

Using the grandparent's 9/11 TSA analogy - talk to literally anyone - the vast majority of people will openly acknowledge that TSA screening is pure security theatre, but they accept and go through it anyway. You'll find the same thing regarding the Epstein suicide, domestic spying apparatus, etc. Most people know and accept statistically likely truth, but they play along because compliance makes for a more comfortable life.
The refresh rate on one of those videos seems to be in the 5-10 fps range, but still fairly damn impressive to have crammed Qt in there. UI looks sleek too.
> Linux takes backward compatibility very seriously. The FOSS ecosystem as a whole has the whole spectrum, so the bad apples break it for everyone.

> The result isn't even "fuck you, recompile." The result is, "fuck you, you better be constantly fixing the shit that we broke with our breaking changes."

Linux's approach to drivers is the most "fuck you, you better be constantly fixing the shit that we broke with our breaking changes" of any OS. It does take userland compatibility seriously though.
My reaction to all marketing emails is one or more of:

- Delete

- Flag sender as spammer in Thunderbird.

- Click unsubscribe link.

- File abuse complaint with sending service.

I have never bought anything in response to a marketing email.
CL yes, FB Marketplace no. FB handles the payment for things you sell on Marketplace.
TripIt does what you want, and more. (Imports flight confirmation emails automatically, and gives you an iCal feed you can subscribe to in your calendar)
There are some degrees to this though: agreed that homeschooling is on another level. But plenty of kids live in rural environments and come out fine.

I think the biggest question is whether or not there is a sufficiently large base of other kids living nearby and whether or not kids can safely get around.

Cities have their own trade-offs and I'm not quite sure what the best spot is to raise kids after having seen a large range of options, all I see is a mixture of drawbacks and benefits for each.

Right now I live in a 40k people town near a major city. This seems to be a nice optimum: have the big city when you want it, but much better quality of life and more space. I'm not sure my kids would benefit from living more rural or more in a city, but if that changes we'll be happy to move to maximize their chances.
What about that classic meme of Linus (Tech Tips, not Torvalds) running the equivalent of `apt update` on Pop OS and breaking the entire Desktop Environment?

I'd be lying if I said I'd never done something similar when trying to switch from the open-source Nvidia drivers (glitchy at 4k60, at the time) to the officially provided ones.
It has special elevated status economically because of near-zero marginal cost. Circuit boards, wires, and vehicles are brutally competitive businesses where you try to squeeze $/performance out of Mother Nature like blood from a stone. Software is so far from these physical frontiers that that incredibly wasteful architectures can create enormous amounts of business value.
Might want to add a tag line to the title. I was expecting something related to sock trading based on the name.

This looks really cool, even if I don't have a game in mind that would make use of it right now.
I merely said "I would believe". I wasn't intending to make any claims without evidence, other than that "99.9999%" is a wild overestimate.
A bit curious why this has garnered no traction (I am not OP). Has this been countered?
> tracking down old versions of libraries works

See that's the thing, everything on linux is designed to work by sideloading as much as possible, depending on thirty thousand packages that must be all installed to the perfect version by apt or else nothing works. A good system if you need to get a fully featured OS running on 100 MB of disk space, which tbf is linux's niche, but it's absolute horseshit to maintain.

Windows on the other hand tends to have flatpak-style monolithic executables, with the odd .NET framework or cpp resdistrubutable here and there, but it's the rare exception. Things tend to actually work when they bundle their dependencies. Hell, the average Java app ships the JRE along with it because nothing works if the wrong version is installed globally. Linux just takes that problem as a fact of life and tells you to fuck off.
I'd expect FB to be affected, since they're acting as intermediary. CL doesn't do any payment handling though.

Although the volume requirements may moot that.
My understanding is that you can always call them, even if your account is blocked.
Well fair enough if they're trying to make enough money for this to be a business. I still suspect they won't succeed. How many businesses are so constrained by link times on Mac that they're willing to pay to reduce them? (And go through the admin effort of paying for something.) But I hope we don't see any tedious comments here about how this is a moral outrage because all software should be fr£e.

Also `sold` is a genius name.
It's already illegal to hire illegal aliens. Why will REAL ID change anything in that regard?

Employers who disregard the law now will continue to disregard the law.
How many of us need 5-6k concurrent requests?
Are you saying headlines from the national media are always based on the law of the local municipality??
Surprising exactly no one who has been paying attention.
Capitalism also tends toward the mean at the expense of the edge cases.
> The myth of the indie developer being hurt by the App Store tax is just that.

They statistic you presented does not support that assertion.

30% of your revenue is 30% of your revenue. Indie developers who have fewer distribution channels than a big name like Epic will of course be hurt more by the requirement that they share a big chunk of their revenue with their (often sole) distributor.
I offered a job in a company that implements NATO procedures.
Its a company in Greece that implements radar software for airspace among other defensive projects.

I stayed there only for a month, i hated the objective of the job, I hated the UI custom library, I hated the way I had to test my code, I hated how much of disengagement I had to do from my morals to work on 'defense' projects.
The implications of this being what?
> Software, driven by Apple’s founder was threatening to take Apple’s market

NeXT was already a failure and was transitioning out of the hardware business. Apple couldn’t make a modern operating system to save its life and was getting crushed by Microsoft.

> Post Jobs’ death they bought a black celebrity-driven entertainment company. This was absolutely a brand threat as Apple was now associated with Tim Cook, who is perhaps many amazing things but they do not include cool.

People aren’t buying iPhones because of a producer that most outside of Hip Hop only knew because he was the producer behind a famous White rapper (Eminem).

> Microsoft’s existing businesses, if someone else got ahold of them Microsoft would have zero social footprint, which would be a big problem for them, having essentially missed out on search as well.

Under Satya, they moved away from Windows everywhere to cloud and Office everywhere.

Azure isn’t popular because of GitHub. It mostly targets stodgy old Enterprise customers that are already on the MS platform. That’s not meant to be an insult. I was a stodgy old enterprise MS dev until 2018 when I started moving toward AWS technologies (where I now work).
Danah Boyd has made a compelling alternative case (from 2007):

When Facebook opened to everyone last September, it became relatively easy for any high school student to join (and then they simply had to get permission to join their high school network). This meant that many more high school teens did join, much to the chagrin and horror of college students who had already begun writing about their lack of interest in having HS students on "their" site. Still, even with the rise of high school students, Facebook was framed as being about college. This was what was in the press. This was what college students said. Facebook is what the college kids did. Not surprisingly, college-bound high schoolers desperately wanted in.

In addition to the college framing, the press coverage of MySpace as dangerous and sketchy alienated "good" kids. Facebook seemed to provide an ideal alternative. Parents weren't nearly as terrified of Facebook because it seemed "safe" thanks to the network-driven structure. (Of course, I've seen more half-naked, drink-carrying high school students on Facebook than on MySpace, but we won't go there.)

As this past school year progressed, the division around usage became clearer. In trying to look at it, I realized that it was primarily about class.

unconditional worldwide true peace (not brought by weapons)
It sucks for people who sincerely want to endeavor for good, but I don't see any of that happening in the culture war sphere. The entire thing runs on invented grievances, word games, abusive power plays and historical original sin.

I also don't see any evidence that it's actually helping the people that activists invariably speak on behalf of.

A movement doesn't have to consist of mostly dishonorable liars to be invalid. It can simply be based on terminally bad epistemology. Like the idea that the only reason people would disagree is because they are privileged. It creates self reinforcing loops that become allergic to facts.

(Funny example: the idea of racial reparations recently popped up again in the Netherlands... except... the country already paid reparations when Suriname became independent.)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AARD_code

^ For those unfamiliar with what this poster is talking about.

tl;dr:

In a _beta_ release of windows 3.1 Microsoft included code to detect if the user was running authenticate DOS or a third-party clone and errored out if it wasn't the real thing. The code was disabled on for the actual release of 3.1 that went out to customers.

Internal memos about the code came to light during the government's antitrust prosecution of Microsoft. When this happened the new owner of the clone DOS system sued Microsoft and they settled to make the case go away and get the anti-trust headlines out of the news.
TBF, Sox is also protecting the little guy and it has the effect (for better AND worse) of increasing the cost of doing business (properly/legally). When regulating small businesses it’s important to be mindful of the overhead inflicted such that significant barriers aren’t being raised to business creation. Similarly, Amazon doesn’t advocate for $15 minimum wage out of altruism, no matter what your thought on the issue - they can afford to pay it whereas more local businesses would struggle and go under. Anti-competitive regulatory advocacy is a thing, so light touches in the SMB arena represent caution as often or more than regulatory capture.
i'm guessing that behavior isn't universal
