N3 is actually much worse than expected, it’s essentially a marketing node to satisfy contractual obligations and the expected gains from N3 won’t actually be reached until N3E in another year+.

This means that Samsung’s 3GAP/2GAE (both with GAAFET) will match their density and release timeline…

https://www.notebookcheck.net/TSMC-reportedly-ditches-its-N3...

Even TSMC is hitting delays and diminishing returns, and costs are spiraling faster than density - N3 alone is ~40% more expensive than N5, both in wafer and validation/tapeout costs, for only ~30% higher density in real-world products. And remember that’s the fake N3 now and the real N3E will undoubtedly be even more expensive.

Rumors are that all 10 of TSMC’s top-10 customers have cut their orders next year and they have 50% less utilization than expected, which is really bad for the node economics. So TSMC may finally have found the point at which costs have spiraled past consumers’ willingness to pay.

Like Tor, Freenet attempts to provide anonymity by obscuring the ultimate origin of any given request

Unlike Tor, Freenet can't be directly used like a VPN.

Unlike Tor, Freenet nodes don't route to specific origin servers, but also provide storage to the network. Data is "inserted" to announce its presence, and then cached along the path of any requests. This is supposed to both provide robust access to popular data and provide plausible deniability against any given node operator being responsible for the data (the extent to which it succeeds at either aim in practice is a subject of quite some discussion).
Well for one thing, IPv6 adoption hasn’t reached the point where it’s worth talking about blocking IPv6 addresses to block sites. Maybe it’s just a funky section because of editing (maybe IPv6 was added later) or clouded thinking by the author? A benign explanation seems more likely to me.

Millions of people are in places where acknowledging that they want abortions[1] or miscarried[2] can pique the state's interest, along with people who are trans[3] or have trans kids[4].

We have police using web searches to prosecute women for abortion[1], we have states compiling lists of transgender individuals[3] and we have parents being investigated by the state because their kids were open about being trans[4].

Right, cause your claim was substantiated much better.
He is shameless. I second this comment.
Got a reference for volume? Sol had either the most or second most active wallets.
Huh. Now I wonder if that system is regionally different. My experience was back in Germany, and delivery times were (unless it was a rare book) pretty predictably about a week.

Googler's network environment would be extremely good so it's not weird.
Correct, he didn't need to do them at all. He went off and did them anyway. This is what Yak Shaving is - optional, nested distractions that you engage in and which take you away from a task that you intended to perform. I don't understand what you mean about prerequisites.
As the article mentions, the research is amateurish. The experimental designs wouldn't pass muster at any tech company.
Not to mention that no one would ever be insane enough to turn off electronics and then say "right, now IFR your way in". You're flying VFR, you're going to have eyes on the runway.
Epubs from most suppliers use Adobe’s solution. Which has been cracked for years.
The objective is for the plaintiff to demonstrate that he has standing. His standing is the loss of real money he paid for a product, and he can easily demonstrate how much he paid. If he decided to base his standing on something like "I might one day develop a health problem" then it would be far more complicated for him to prove.

I doubt that Lazazzaro has much of an academic economic focus on the figure he would pay. It's just that he would have paid less than he did.
Working at Acquia we had a bunch of devops who preferred Linux/thinkpads/things with docks.

They never worked correctly, and these folks spent a non trivial amount of time diagnosing them, even taking up meeting time to explain the latest arcane fix that was needed so $whatever would come up properly after sleep.

They would also complain that dev tooling wouldn’t work for them when they were maybe a handful out of hundreds with MacBooks.

When the day came they were forced to migrate to Macs, they grumbled as expected, but their productivity went way up.
That's planned, as I recall.

Carbon is great, but I highly recommend looking into the lenovo t14 lineup. Especially interesting is the ryzen chipped ones. You can get a base model and then easily upgrade components, I did this and upgraded the panel and SSD if I remember correctly, saved quite a bit of money that way.

It's fatter than a carbon but more performant, has more ports, and is much more extendable / repairable in my opinion.

edit: I really hope framework comes out on top here though because I really hate that lenovo has started soldering RAM and the state of consumerism and e-waste in our industry is genuinely completely out of control at this point.

I really need to go ahead and pull the trigger on buying a framework laptop... it's just so very hard to give up that lenovo keyboard!!
this has been known forever, very inflammatory article imo.
Is that really a fact? It seems like _scientific fact_ is a misnomer. Nothing can ever be a fact in science, even with 95% consensus.
"Without any notice to Cloudflare, an Austrian court had ordered Austrian Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to block 11 of Cloudflare’s IP addresses."

Maybe if Cloudflare actually paid attention to email sent to their abuse address, they'd have seen some correspondence. They ignore it, and, after avoiding answering questions for ages, finally admitted that they ignore it.

They are so complete hypocritical, since they block IPs all the time, and they couldn't care less about collateral damage, unless the collateral damage happens to be their paying customers.
This is absolutely worth $10 a month.

For a family of 4, maybe, maybe not. I'd argue still yes, though. It needs to get bought by Apple or at least white labeled by Apple to make free as part of Apple One for families.
I think that's always been an issue, less weight for anonymous.
If there is a defect, it's in git-lfs. Picking a reasonable default is not a defect.
Someone correct me if I am missing some nuance here but I think the two MacBook options aren't contenders for best laptop running Linux. The drivers simply don't support basic things like the touchpad or wifi (at least not without extensive reworking and a modified kernel). Perhaps in some years Asahi Linux will be functional as a daily driver on the newer ARM/Apple Silicon but it's definitely a hobby laptop right now, and not close to being "best laptop for Linux".
> 1) What are the downsides to having your search history monetized? Is it the ads served to you across websites that use the same network?

Lots of people value privacy in and of itself. If you don’t care about Google recording and mining your search history, then a core value proposition of Kagi doesn’t apply to you. Kagi is targeting the subset of the market that cares enough about privacy to pay for it.
Principle of least surprise. Nagle’s is disabled in Go, except in Windows. The OS default is to have it enabled. I thought this was probably some weird accidental configuration in git-lfs. Then it turned into “aha, this is the source of all my problems on my shitty wifi”
Apple silicon MacBook is not a good choice. Love what the Asahi people are doing but come on. Terrible idea.

I learned React via https://www.roadtoreact.com/

But then I discovered Svelte(Kit). It seems to give you the benefits of React while staying closer to plain HTML/CSS/JS. For example, Svelte templates are just HTML with some special syntax added (vs JSX).

There are probably way more job openings for React devs, but the Svelte job openings seem to be slightly higher in quality.

My point with my comment was addressing the GP's claim about fingerprinting being pushed to JavaScript in an arms race, which is what's happening and is something that NoScript can't really stop unless millions/billions of people start using it.

NoScript is great, I use it, but isn't a solution to fingerprinting via JS if you actually want to talk to the servers that fingerprint that way.
But you can make an API to expose the browser version. You don’t need to parse a cursed string.
1. It disaligns the incentives. As the customer, I want the best search results. As the provider, google wants me to click ads. These are not always compatible.

2. Personalized weighting just means I can downweight websites I know to be not what I'm looking for, like Pinterest, and I can upweight websites that probably are more like what I want -- stackoverflow, wikipedia, etc.
That is all well and good in an academic setting. Many distributed systems in the real world like having time bounds under 200 ms for certain things like Paxos consensus within a datacenter. It turns out that latency, at some level, is equivalent to reliability, and 200 milliseconds is almost always well beyond that level.
I wonder if Kagi gets significantly better results than Brave's? I almost entirely moved to Brave from DDG, and the difference is like night and day, but could Kagi's search really be worth $10/month? I could use some more Brave vs. Kagi comparisons.
I have the HP Dev One and it's pretty darn good and inexpensive.
System 76 is the first Linux laptop I’ve liked. Have had intermittent issues with the touchpad after updates. Solid machine.
OP is completely right that this is bad design because the fundamental issue is NOT that multiple giftcards are being made - the issue is you cannot have a Kindle shopping cart.

No matter how you spin it, that's Amazon being difficult in the hopes that a few lazy shoppers will "just" buy things as they see it and not track their spending.

Likewise, .epub is a garbage format. DRM does not belong on books.
As a consumer, I do not need you to speak for me and decide which freedoms matter to me more. I can do it myself. I prefer it this way.
> Could it be that some parts of the mainstream media sees Musk as a partial replacement for Trump, a great source of over-done outrage stories, clicks and ads?

I think a bigger factor is that some parts of social media sees Musk as a partial replacement for Trump.

And, particularly, that the part of social media to which Trump was most valuable for several years (before he was finally booted), and which has failed to draw Trump back recently despite very visible efforts, and which Musk now owns, sees him that way.
The author has devised a logical argument based off drawing equivalences between similar sounding words ("forelegs" vs "four legs"). The absurdity of the conclusion that a horse has infinite legs and the novelty of the invalid leaps in reasoning makes the story humorous.
If only you hadn't used Breitbart, funded by the very people who seek to ensure most people have a near-zero impact on public policy.
Startpage used to be Google with personalization off. So the results tended to be "better". (Haven't checked if this is still the case.)

It's still !s on DDG and Kagi.
I think a lot of times unless you are operating at hyperscale and bps matter, most business data analysis is more art than science. Ex, if you have < 200 sales in a month and you want to report this, it's totally normal to want to pull it into excel and fiddle with the numbers, make ad-hoc corrections, divide those 200 sales up in very subjective ways, etc. The smaller the company the more the reporting layer is only a weak approximation of reality, there isn't enough there to create a narrative around. "Hypothesis testing" such data is honestly a waste of time.

Of course you want to be intellectually honest about it, and I agree that cherry-picking the "right" data can be a big problem in the wrong kind of organization. I remember one time a Jr analyst I managed was asked by the CEO to create a certain chart. I was not looped in. The CEO then used that chart to convince himself and many others on the executive team to make a huge product change that ended up being a complete disaster.
> for each of the purchase I created a new virtual card and bought them. After a few minutes my Amazon account is blocked for suspicious activity, and ALL my kindle library is wiped

Accept for the sake of argument that this is a real signal of fraud. If I visit a store five times in a day and present a different physical credit card every time, they can refuse to take it this time or call the police, but they can't just force their way into my house and take back everything I had bought the previous times.
That is what Tor is for. If all you need is protection from authorities, Tor is enough. Freenet is content-focused, designed so that not even the original uploader can ever remove popular content. Tor protects people and speech from the police. Freenet protects files from everybody.
If you draw a zero centered on the origin, it describes a two-valued function y = ±sqrt(1-x^2) which is odd. Zero is odd if you really really REALLY want it to be.
I do agree... but I'm a FTE in that's been in my current position for 7 years. I'm not worrying about which way the burn down charts go (and sigh when the estimation is removed - well, at least it's in the history).

I occasionally think about how to implement PEF/REV ( https://www.fincher.org/tips/General/SoftwareDevelopment/Bug... - though https://lostgarden.home.blog/2008/05/20/improving-bug-triage... is another approach) in Jira (long ago, I was part way through implementing it as a plugin in Redline).

The issues that I've had is that as long as there is someone else that is doing the maintenance or support, or the tenure of the developer is closer to the job hopping average - technical debt is ignored at nearly every level.
It being reasonable is what's in dispute.
I doubt this will happen. Cache is way too important. I would be very surprised to see chips with less cache in the future. I guess we will see in 10 years where the industry has moved. Currently a LOT of the transistor budget is blown on things we don't really need.
Del.icio.us was awesome, then they changed the way it worked, which killed it.

Much the same was true of Napster.

Both were amazing ways to discover new things based on shared curation, which got wiped out when commercial interests took over.
I'm using a T14 for my work machine. I would not have recommended it until last week, when it got a firmware update, but since then - it just works, and I'm really happy with it.

The lawsuit ruling said unlicensed games could include/present a copy too, despite trademark.
> What are the downsides to having your search history monetized?

Beyond the obvious privacy concerns I'm not going to bother repeating, it really depends how it is monetised - is it only used to target ads on other products or does the search engine itself have ads?

The former option is potentially fine as long as you're happy with the privacy concerns. The latter option (which is what Google is) directly incentivises them to degrade search quality so that you spend more time on the search engine and potentially click an ad.

Furthermore, when it comes to a large company such as Google that also happens to control ads/analytics on many other sites, it incentivises them to preserve ad/analytics-infested sites in search results (since they make money and/or collect data off it) despite those being very good signals a site is spammy and should be downranked.

(for antitrust reasons they will never explicitly talk about prioritising sites with their own ads or explicitly degrading search experience - however the unspoken rule is that projects/ideas that might improve the experience and lead to less ad impressions overall might not succeed for various innocent-looking reasons, giving them a layer of plausible deniability)

A user-funded search engine doesn't have those misaligned incentives and can beat SEO by using common hallmarks of spammy content such as presence of ads, analytics, affiliate links and other marketing tools (used to measure the effectiveness of the spam) as negative ranking signals. This will be difficult to evade by the spam sites because the same techniques they'd need to evade search engine detection (such as self-hosting and proxying the ads) are common in ad-fraud and would be prohibited by their advertisers, thus cornering the spammers in a game where the only winning move is not to play.
I think this is vastly overblowing the upbringing of babies.

Honestly, if it mattered that much, we'd have a global epidemic of behaviour disorders due to poor parenting in the very early years. But that just isn't the case.

These days you can be attacked based on etymology of your chosen words. Not prosecuted, but people definitely can make your life harder.
Maybe federally (or even state-wide). Locally you can have a MASSIVE impact, and local politics in many ways trickles up to the national level.

Dev tooling is about what OS most of your devs use - if most of your devs are on linux, then, the tooling will work well there. I saw this happen to a dev that preferred osx when they came to the one dearly missed linux house I worked at. My point is that tooling working or not is not really a relevant criticism of an entire OS or platform.

I will say that what happened to your linux people at Acquia has happened to me when I was forced to switch to OSX for some kind of vague security reasoning at a job once. My productivity plummeted, I can't believe the defaults in OSX people just... live with for the most part. Sure, a tiled window manager isn't for everyone, but truly, people just accept a new window opening and flying off to some apparently arbitrary portion of the screen, at a completely random seeming width and height? People truly just have a massive dock taking up a significant portion of the bottom of their screen? Eck.

I know you can customize all that but that took me a long time to wrangle OSX into an acceptable dev environment, and that's before I get into all the issues I had with various packages. Lord forbid you want to use emacs. This as well is arbitrary, maybe I should "just be a vscode guy" cause that's what everyone uses, but they already spent the money on hiring me so it's like, consider the economics of "forcing" devs to switch just because you think they'll be more productive on the shiny aluminum slab you prefer to use.

And... if people messing with their docks is actually causing a productivity issue, bring it up in performance review lol. Spend less time fiddling with your 2x4k monitor dock and more time just coding, on the laptop screen if necessary, oh woe. I'm guessing the true productivity issue is less that the hardware isn't working and more that the fiddling is fun! If I wasn't fiddling with my docks, I was fiddling with emacs, or, my personally built keyboard config, or, whatever else!
Parents need to have a well defined set of diverse solutions and know how to sample from the search space effectively instead of current epsilon greedy approach
For what it’s worth, I’ve been on MacOS for 7 years, 2 of which have been on an M1. It’s been fabulous.

The corner cases of M1 support have mostly disappeared. I left a review here several months ago that was edging towards negative, but I have to admit, the ecosystem has matured substantially. Even pytorch has a native M1 mode now.

The best part is, when something does require a recompile, it zips by — compiling is almost fun again just for the sheer joy of watching a big build finish in ~30 minutes when it used to take hours.
> I don't follow. Nationalization might add more slack, and more resilience, but it'll be so much more costly to operate.

Who cares? The point of nationalization is costs don't matter, we just see it as a cost we bear because transportation is important for civilization. The primary mode (for better or worse) in the US is public (roads) and that "cost" is not covered by anyone.
Arrow keys: That’s actually consistent, F2 toggles the two modes (Enter and Edit), and the current mode is indicated in the status bar. See for example https://www.omnisecu.com/excel/worksheet/excel-cell-modes-re.... It’s a bit like Vim modes.
TLDR, an empty source file:

Not sure why the Wayback link was necessary, though.
Not really, not on this thread. The debate is valid (though maybe not in this hyperbolic framing), but this is subthread where I'm responding to someone who "picked their jaw up off the floor" at this "defect" of a very obvious default in the Go standard library that has been there I think since its inception, as if no network software in the history of software had ever deliberately disabled Nagle, rather than that being literally standard socket programming advice for decades.

(Again, being standard advice doesn't make it not debatable!)
Yeah the distinction is leading vs trailing nodes. Automotive uses older nodes for cost and nobody is building any more of that. TSMC is trying to get them to move to 22nm nodes but so far that’s not what’s used, it’s 40nm and 65nm and 90nm and such.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/17470/tsmc-to-customers-time-...

Paradoxically there is actually some capacity available at the newer nodes now, because of big cancellations from major customers. But using them involves major design/validation costs and higher wafer costs etc, and the things that automotive and RF and power chips do doesn’t really scale.
this is the result of the annas-archive people mirroring the contents of their crawling project onto ipfs -- huge props
These days you have to go actively searching to find such on Freenet. And as journalists proved multiple times¹, if you do go searching, you’ll find a lot more of it in the clearnet via forums accessible with Tor than in Freenet.

And for the highest security in Freenet (the friend-to-friend mode), you need to have friends whom you trust not to go to lengths to spy on you — friends would be able to run statistical attacks if you transmit large amounts of known content. And such trusted friends are what people who want to access child abuse content do not have.

I've been having a good time with Kagi but I can't figure out how "In fact, it costs us about $1 to process 80 searches" can be possible. That's on the order of Midjourney, DALL-E, and Davinci-003 and they're shoveling GPUs into furnaces to power their servers.
