I think it would be great to have two streams. Purchase a specific X.Y.* version, revision updates for free, and purchase other updates, OR subscribe at a much lower cost monthly to get all updates for any version. Just like JetBrains, if you stop the subscription, you keep what you have.
For me, and many others on Twitter, updating the DNS worked (I used 1.1.1.1). Though I'm not sure why.

The naming scheme used by the National Park Service is so confusing. My only contribution is that "National Park" means funding has been designated via Congress; "National Monument" means designated via the executive branch.
Very cool.

I made a video a few months ago about how to befriend dragonflies. They'll let you pet them if you have the right approach. Message if you'd like to see. Not trying to spam youtube vid/self promote.
I'm pretty sure the US has insured deposits up to a sizeable threshold, so no, the vast majority of customers would not have been FTXed, I think.

This is something that keeps coming up: the regulations and institutions in traditional finance exist largely because it already went through the same pain that crypto finance ia going through now.
I agree with the sentiment and think that legalizing drugs like psilocybin is a positive step. But I have learned from seeing the consequences of drugs like fentanyl and meth that some substances are too dangerous and addictive to be available to the public. And in practice, cities don't have enough resources to deal with the consequences associated with them that you've listed. It is not practical to allow the use of drugs that consistently drive people to lives of crime and dependence. Often lives are damaged irreparably and the societal costs are incalculable, but emergency bills and social services can alone be staggering high.
I like having the option to do a long distance road trip. It's easy to find gas stations and it only takes a minute to fill up.
I rarely see charging stations and I doubt it can recharge in just a minute.
100% of those hundreds of mastodon followers will have your posts in their Home timeline, while an unknown but tiny percentage of your twitter followers will have your posts in their timeline.

I don't know of any mastodon servers that report view counts, but interaction on mastodon (replies, likes, boosts) is reported to be dramatically higher per follower than interaction on twitter (replies, likes, retweets).

Your mileage may vary, but it seems to be pretty consistent.
It's easy to crap on EJB, lots to disagree with, but vendors like WebLogic were trying to do interesting things with them when they were ascending. I recall they had a nifty feature where if you were trying to call a remote EJB and the container knew it was deployed locally, it would automatically do a cheaper local call instead of RMI. It was awkward as hell, but it did do that, and it was faster. J2EE also had the concept of people _roles_ as part of its prescribed SDLC, something we could benefit from exploring, especially the _deployer_ role.

Ideally we could flexibly deploy services/components in the same way as WebLogic EJB. Discovery of where components live could be handled by the container and if services/components were deployed locally to one another, calls would be done locally without hitting the TCP/IP stack. I gather that systems like Kubernetes offer a lot of this kind of deployment flexibility/discovery, but I'd like to see it driven down into the languages/frameworks for maximum payoff.

Also, the right way to do microservices is for services to "own" all their own data and not call downstream services to get what they need. No n+1 problem allowed! This requires "inverting the arrows"/"don't call me, I'll call you" and few organizations have architectures that work that way - hence the fallacies of networked computing reference. Again, the services language/framework needs to prescribe ways of working that seamlessly establish (*and* can periodically/on-demand rebroadcast) data feeds that our upstreams need so they don't need to call us n+1-style.

Microservices are great to see, even with all the problems, they DO solve organizational scaling problems and let teams that hate each other work together productively. But, we have an industry immaturity problem with the architectures and software that is not in any big players' interest in solving because they like renting moar computers on the internet.

I have no actual solutions to offer, and there is no money in tools unless you are lucky and hellbent on succeeding like JetBrains.
I'm kinda happy with the way things turned out. For a moment, my understanding of reality was upside down with how many mediocre and clearly pointless projects were generating so much money.

With every crypto hype cycle, I actually go through the motions and create a smart contract project and become completely disillusioned with the hype. I thought ERC20 tokens were bullshit when I realized it's just updating keys in a hashtable.

I worked in Solana and was surprised to find out that a developer can update a program at will. No one is really talking about this and this seems like a disastrously shaky foundation to put your money in, along with programs being difficult to audit.

There are some NFTs by amazing artists which no one cares about. The ones with the most popularity are modern-day clip art pieces, with copy-paste scripts and marketing strategies.

I think web3/crypto will have mass adoption, but when it does, it will be much more boring and seamless with what we have today, with large companies managing blockchains and governments issuing their own coins.
Banks use other secrets, like my birthday, or the date my national ID card was issued on. These can be found out by fraudsters, too. But not having my bank details public helps.
Early adoption isn't for financed purchases.
Tesla seemed too complicated to me, I’d be an early adopter(actually early consumer). Just drive a Honda or Toyota.

But I heard friends bought a Tesla since an online order was easier than dealing with car dealers.

And Tesla is not a sports car or a luxury car. So why buy them.
Evan, thanks for taking the time to write this up. I helped resolve your particular issue on NYE and I’m acutely aware of how painful it’s been.

I broadly agree with a lot of your statements. The lack of clear communication and the repetitive requests for information during the review process isn’t good. We’re working on striking the right balance between giving good users relevant information without giving bad actors a roadmap to defraud Stripe. And we need clear channels to escalate when users need to. While I’m happy your issue was resolved, the process isn’t where it should be yet.

I wasn’t aware I was taking a revolutionary stance. This is a common sentiment in my community.
I know it's not necessarily what you meant, but to be clear I don't think it's 'writing satirically' - rather the given prompt was expected to produce something satirically amusing.

ChatGPT certainly 'knows' what satire looks like, but it wasn't asked for. It also knows what breaking news looks like and what text about leaves looks like, but putting those together isn't the same as understanding (as a human would) that doing such a thing would be (or would benefit from being particularly) satirical.

...but maybe it could? I'm sure if you asked it 'would a breaking news story about leaves falling from a tree be satirical' the answer would be along the lines of 'yes, leaves regularly fall from many trees, most often in Autumn. Trees that do not drop leaves are called [...]'.
As someone who doesn't want untrusted devices on my network, I'd want to be able to encrypt SNI at my firewall.
Ok, so what happens when several of your dependencies never ported?

This isn't strawmanning - this is literally the case for a codebase I'm working with today.
You can decriminalize risky health decisions without legalizing them. There are other costs to such actions other than economical cost.
The person you're replying to said "If you want my help with just about anything code related, that's a call. Screensharing is way easier for me to see what you are talking about, and it's much easier for us to be on the same page if we're both looking at the same thing."

I think that's an entirely reasonable position. How does this depend on "If both people are working on the same thing"? If I'm trying to help you debug something, and it feels like pulling teeth when I know I could solve your problem with a 5 minute screen-share, I'm probably going to choose the 5-minute screenshare over the hour-and-a-half of 10 different messages spread out over random intervals. The GP said the exact same thing:

It's also a massive peeve of mine when someone asks a question on messaging, refuses to have a call, and then proceeds to take forever getting back to me. It's one thing [if] I say something like "Try this, this, and this. Let me know what works" and then I can get back to my work.

But if I'm trying to step you through something and you sometimes reply immediately, sometimes in 5 minutes, sometimes in a half hour, then you get to have calls whenever you want my help from then on.
I’m a unionized employee who is currently waiting on finalized legal language for a new contract.

A lot of my time will be spent reviewing a diff between the current agreement and the proposed agreement but it’s a 500 page document. I might give this product a try just to see what it spits out. I could see this being incredibly useful if it could write a plain language, non-biased, summary of changes.
Not surprised to hear about this at all. Stripe's customer support seems completely powerless most of the time to do anything about anything complicated at all until you start yelling at them, a huge change from 4 - 5 years ago.

Makes me sad to resort to that but I just don't know what to do anymore. Stripe, can you build a better escalation system if anyone there is listening?
As am I. If you want to make your own personal decisions, you can't rely on someone else's money.
If a team requires a synchronous meeting to coordinate that feels like an opportunity to replace the meeting with something else that is more efficient.

I don’t know these circumstances but I completely agree with the premise of not allowing indefinitely recurring meetings. Perhaps it’s better to simply limit them to say 10 occurrences before they must be reconsidered, participants reevaluated and so on.
It does amuse me how frequently people seem to start their prompts with 'Please'!
If this extortion practice isn't a common curse of Etsy stores with her scale of revenue, I wonder whether it might actually be a competitor (who gets the sales and customers whenever her store is down).
It knows exactly what it's talking about. It understands the relationship of leaves trees and wind. It knows what a news article is. It knows what an interview is. To think that passage is a failure of GPT is incredibly obtuse.
Yeah Maronites weren’t exactly keen on the ottoman empire and would even oppose them and wage rebellions at times throughout history.

Yes, its true. I never use store, I install store apps if I need them (I don't, just My Asus shit) via winget. Otherwise, I use chocolatey for everything.

You don't need store, and it is not your friend. Its terrible.
Not only that but there's nobody there bc who tf actually wants to LIVE there? That's why.

But research stations in the poles are exactly why it's useful to have research stations on other planets. It solves the "if only we could..." problem.

As for his other points, microbial contamination can still happen with robots. I definitely agree that we should be sending more robots/rovers out to Mars before we send people as well as experiments like sending something to produce and store oxygen there just so we know it can be done. Hell, the rovers weren't even able to clean their own solar panels - at one point they had the fortune of a dust devil blowing the dust off the panels.
I use it. HTH.
They will. Just not anytime soon.

Would you consider doing the same for a fun free software project that just aim to share knowledge about how http works?
Then you'd be contravening the prompt. ChatGPT was able to understand this nuance (to create a satirical article) and accomplish what was asked.

You should reflect on what this means when you and OP, who presumably are both humans, failed to understand this task.

If instead you expect it to not answer, then provide escape hatches in the prompt: if request is nonsensical, refuse to answer. Then it will actually refuse to answer.
If only transcribing from screenshots could be automated somehow... Maybe in 50 years.
> I told the contacts at Stripe that I would do a write up about what happened from my point of view to help them understand what happened to me. I figured it would be good to do that write up publicly to help both Stripe and potential Stripe customers understand what happened and how it was resolved.

Sucks that you had to get to this point, but thank you for taking the time to do this and being rational about it. Being able to review what went sideways is invaluable for big companies and complex processes on their end. Having customer input can really help push things in the right direction for everyone (including existing and future customers).

(FYI: not affiliated with Stripe. Just glad to see people pushing things forward in a way that is not only productive but can have positive impact on people.)
Although all vulnerabilities affect cloud services and/or mobile apps (SaaS and similar areas) looks like this eventually leads to closely interact with the single vehicles. Which raises questions about the recent Cybersecurity UNECE Regulations R155 and R156 that any new vehicles manufacturer must take into account while submitting a new model for approval in Europe and other areas. Those regulations explicitly cover the vehicle itself and not connected cloud services. Should an urgent revision extend coverage?

You mean, pre-2014? They’ve already taken post-2014 “Russian” territory.
Perhaps we should coin the phase 'embedded microservices'.
Good luck! I used to live in a place that frequently flooded. Never again.
As a woman who finally gave up on twoxchromosomes because I felt is was a bit too toxic I somewhat disagree on it not being toxic. It seemed determined to paint women as perpetual victims of toxic men. Ironically it also seemed determined to paint men as bad if they didn't protect women (yes, this is an exaggeration. No, not all and perhaps not even most posts/comments were this way. It just happened enough and it made me angry enough that I decided avoiding that subreddit was best for my mental health)
Twitter is optimized for engagement with twitter, specifically with advertisers on twitter. The site doesn't prioritize your tweets, it prioritizes those likely to drive further engagement (with the site, remember, not with you).

Many people with very large followings on twitter have reported that with even 10% or less as many followers on mastodon, they're seeing more engagement in terms of replies and like and boosts than they see on twitter for the same content.
yes! wind, solar and decentralized buffer storage can make us independent from both mined fuels, uranium and fossils, real fast once there is a political willpower to do so.

Merkel as a quantum physicist, a PhD at that, knew how to read statistics and forecasts. her exit from nuclear was an incredibly wise and far sighted political measure. I hope we'll be wise enough to stick with it.
Fuel really isn't a problem there any more, and neither is logistics broadly speaking. They received hundreds of thousands of tons of military support. Supply up to the Ukrainian border of specific weapon systems is, specifically slow political decisions. It seems there is no consensus that Ukraine should decisively win.

And even if they get an Abrams that has half the range they'd take it at this point.
>I suspect the point is to let Putin drain his resources into Ukraine.

Ukraine isn't a black hole. Russia draining resources in Ukriane comes at the cost of Ukraine's own resources, in money and human lives, both economical, civilian and military.

The longer the war goes on, the more lives Ukraine loses, the more refugees (usually young skilled people) leave the country and the less chance they will return later to rebuild the country.

It's terrible for Ukraine to prolong the war.

The favorite prank played on me was coworkers changing my wallpaper to a "funny" picture, then renaming *.jpg to *.old and replacing the original *.jpg's with the same "funny" picture. So when I went to change my wallpaper back, it seemed like it didn't work. Harmless (mv *.old *.jpg, slightly more complicated, obviously) and funny!
It's very expensive and it's electric.

I don't have a £50k+ budget (here in the UK) to spend on a car and I am still cautious about the practicality, maintenance costs, and resale value of an EV.

At the moment it seems that Teslas/EVs are fine in term of practicality if you only commute locally and can charge every day at home, but then that makes the price tag even less palatable. So I intend to keep my diesel (boo!) for as long as I can and see where things go.
Or America, China, or India where similar laws exist.
I hope this quote from the Carmack essay shows that his argument isn't necessarily restricted to game development:

---------- style C:

void MajorFunction( void ) {
// MinorFunction1

// MinorFunction2

// MinorFunction3

}

> I have historically used "style A" to allow for not prototyping in all cases, although some people prefer "style B". The difference between the two isn't of any consequence. Michael Abrash used to write code in "style C", and I remember actually taking his code and converting it to "style A" in the interest of perceived readability improvements.

> At this point, I think there are some definite advantages to "style C", but they are development process oriented, rather than discrete, quantifiable things, and they run counter to a fair amount of accepted conventional wisdom, so I am going to try and make a clear case for it. There isn't any dogma here, but considering exactly where it is and isn't appropriate is worthwhile.

> In no way, shape, or form am I making a case that avoiding function calls alone directly helps performance.

I don't know how well it works with screen readers, etc., but https://livecode.com might work well because the code is English-like -- it still uses things like [] for arrays and () for precedence in calculations, but in general there is much less use of symbols.

Another possibly odd suggestion is https://www.jsoftware.com/#/README Natively, J is nothing but symbols, but crucially, everything can be redefined. So this is possible:

plus =: +
3 plus 4

7
equals =: =
5 equals 2 plus 3
1
4 equals 2 plus 3
0

It's an array-based language, but it doesn't have to be used that way.
People on Twitter are saying...
There are alternatives, but you will find support horror stories about all of them. Unless they're very new, maybe. Certainly PayPal/Braintree is no refuge from this sort of madness.
Would you be able to provide support for dotnet 8 alpha? Super interested in this, but would need iOS,MacOS and wasm... Seems like cross-compile support for all those targets are already in 8.0.0 alpha?
That all seems totally reasonable to me, much more reasonable than Putin just wants more land and after Ukraine he would move further west. I especially agree, even if you manage to overthrow the government, it will be a long uphill battle to achieve anything remotely resembling stability.

This leads to the next question, why does Putin want a regime change, after all regime change is not an end goal? What other avenues are there towards the underlying goals, i.e. how could he change strategy or where could be ground for a diplomatic resolution?

Can anyone from India confirm if this proxy server [1] is enough to bypass the block?

>Very sturdy cable, too -- very resistant to damage.

depends on the cable, but yeah, it can be. for permanent installs into post facilities, there is a much smaller cable that still qualifies for the higher bandwidth signals, but much thinner cable. it is lighter, easier to pull, and requires so much less space in the racks. this is convenient when cabling patch panels, routers, etc. it does tend to not hold up as well if you have to bend past 90 degrees though.

> If disagreeableness does not help individuals attain power, why do so many people believe that nice guys (and gals) finish last?

Perhaps because jealous and petty people are naturally inclined to have contempt for anybody with a higher status than them. By hiding behind platitudes like that, they can conceal the immature motives of their contempt and instead claim a moral high ground as an excuse for their failures.

That seems like the most obvious explanation to me at least.
In my experience, class invariants are among the very most useful techniques for enabling rapid development of features while managing mutable data. They allow you to "make stuff work" at a faster pace than otherwise.
