I'd be careful with this terminology. These models are able to generate more diversity in data than they are able to memorize. So I just want to make sure readers do not read this as "copying and combining things to make an image" in a copy/paste manner rather than the same manner that humans do (very different mechanisms) of having a broader understanding of shapes and fuzzy concepts. But I'm also a generative modeling researcher and so I'm biased to be pedantic.
So is the $34 fee a one-time fee, and it works across all devices linked to your iCloud account? If so, that makes this tip much more useful for folks with several old devices.

How does the night vision work? I assume it's not nearly as good as IR-enhanced night vision on other security cams?

Can you use Alfred in combination with HomeKit or IFTTT to trigger lights to turn on?

Not for nothing, but there does seem to be something weird going on with Canada. There's a popular argument in left US politics that "inflation" is a canard, and what we're really seeing is collusive price fixing by big corporations. But you can just look at the data to puncture that argument: corporate profits have, excepting a blip in the middle of the pandemic, tracked GDP (they're at "all time highs" because everything else is too). But profits as a percentage of GDP seem to be markedly higher in Canada than here.

OpenBSD doesn't have proper sandboxing. If you download malware it can easily steal and upload your ssh keys.
The architecture makes sense if you understand how the cloud gaming system is set up though. There's no general protocol for on board contoller wifi/SOC->cloud gaming services (yet). It's inherently a proprietary design.

It also didn't need a bluetooth chip but they added one anyway. It wasn't sold as a general controller so I don't really see the big deal. This is a nice good will gesture.
Read-only sd card works pretty well though in my experience. You can make it rw for upgrades and remount to ro once done. All the files which need write access (but you don't care about preserving) can be "saved" to tmpfs.
I just moved my Home Assistant from SD to SSD and it couldn’t have been easier. Using the USB-Sata adapter I plugged my SSD into my Mac and then used Balena Etcher to dump the HA image directly to the SSD. Plugged it into my Pi and it fired up just like it would’ve if it had imaged to the SD card. I was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was and it’s nice to have HA running off of an SSD now.

We pay $140-$160/week with no animal products. Family of four but two young kids don’t eat as much as teenagers or adults so maybe effectively a family of 2.5 or 3. Animal products would likely double this weekly spend and older kids would probably double it again.

Sure, but if the paper is never published in a journal, and just exist as a pdf on arxiv forever, you won’t treat it any different than if it was published. You’ll still ignore it if it looks crap, still read it if it looks promising, still tell your friends about it if it has interesting results, still cite it etc. In short, it doesn’t matter much if the paper was formally published.
Its internal dev-people world is different and doesn't take direct critique as opportunity (or compliment e.g. I want to contribute with my better-outcome-vision) in the same way some other projects do.

I like that he sees that ActivityPub should be so much more than Mastodon. "a truly universal timeline" of various things on the internet.

For that to happen we can't limit ourselves to just Mastodon, but start building alternative takes.

Yes, some aren't viewable on other clients, but that's fine, then they just show a link, but at least you can reply/reblog/like items.
I understand what it means, which you could have seen by reading my comment carefully. My point is that this publication process is of little value these days.
Isn't this how stores used to be run anyways? Give the list to the grocer, he get's your food ready, etc?
Anything that reduces societal trust raises prices. Security guards and anti-theft systems have costs.
Sure, you can get nerfed tools at lower license tiers. But if you can get full tooling with a UI that's more modern than Windows XP for some other language for less, why not pay less? This is why Lisp got its lunch ate in the 90s: Lisp vendors vastly overestimated the willingness of developers to pay dearly for Lisp when they can get 80% of Lisp for no or much more reasonable cost.
Yes, I misspoke when I said "there is no paperwork". The difference is that the loan paperwork does not have to be filed with the IRS, whereas a 709 does.

These laws fundamentally exist to constrain how much wealth can be passed down outside of estate tax, which is the main concern of the article you have linked. If you don't quite cross all of the t's when giving a loan to an older family member (which is the complete opposite of trying to push wealth forwards in time), it's unlikely the IRS is going to be too concerned.
That’s how most stores were run until the 60s. Also, that’s how Amazon works now :-)
While mentioning alternatives, xsv[1] can do joins on csv files instead of doing naive comma splitting. Also unlike gnu join, xsv does not require input to be sorted (afaik)

This is a surprisingly difficult problem. It's also what leads to a lot of cheats, dupes and hacks in online multipler games: you basically have to trust the client at some point.

The starting point for any such discussion is (as in this article) where all updates are done on the server. You then have to deal with packet loss and latency spikes but the real problem is subjective: it just doesn't feel good.

Imagine you're playing Fortnite and when you pressed your trigger you had to wait 50ms for it to acknowledge that your gun fired. That bullet has travel time so there may be another update if you hit someone.

So instead the client gives you immediate feedback and proceeds as if that shot actually happened. This may well include calculating if you hit the target. That target's position may be interpolated too, not the location you last got an update for. This feels way more responsive.

What if your target actually stopped moving after you shot. You get into an ordering canondrum. Now imagine if shooting that shot had recoil (which could affect both aim and position) and getting hit moved the target (eg getting hit by an explosive of some kind).

Doing all of this when latency can easily be >100ms and having it feel good is incredibly difficult.
May I ask what necessitates this level of security? E.g. work, or personal preference in terms of security and privacy?

Do you have actual argument here, or is contentless sneering the extent of your capabilities?
One option could be to have Python installed in a separate location specifically for this purpose and to NOT include it in PATH. Then it is "out-of-sight" of brew and such packages and sort. You can even make the entire location read-only once you are done with installation of Python + pipx etc.
“Something weird” is the fact that oligopolies are ruling Canada and there is way less competition than in US. Telecom is the most egregious example but grocery chains are a good example too.

I had to use recursion to build a tree in AoC '22 day 7. I needed to have both a mutable stack of current tree nodes (`cwd` if you like) and the tree structure. Or equivalently a doubly-linked tree, where nodes point at their parent. It was a bit ugly.

Because the suffix "ism" doesn't really refer to interpersonal things. It connotes a system.

Even that is no guarantee as your packets can be routed into Canada and back if they need to be made foreign.
It can be turned off, and there's very little visual indication that this has happened. The feature bugs some drivers, so if you have a second driver, they could have easily done it.
The energy cost of running an old MacBook, I assume an Intel one, may not be financially worth it. It’s probably not too bad during winter if you use electricity to heat your home and don’t have a heat pump because you will enjoy the heat. But otherwise, it’s going to be expensive.
That would make me more likely to pirate it. Currently I've been able to buy the books and strip the DRM
They should have called it 3.999 instead of 4.0, or "4.0 BETA", or "4.0 (for developers only!)" or anything like that. Anything other than giving it a new major version number without a disclaimer that it wasn't ready for prime-time. When you give something a new major version number, distro packagers will either update to it or they'll be subjected to endless questions from users asking them why the package is outdated.

> There was good reason for them to release 4.0

What were those reasons? To me, it really seems like they rushed it out because the release of Windows Vista and iOS made them feel like they had to release something to seem current and up to date.
Note - actual title leads with the F-word, which I decided to leave off for obvious reasons.
Realistically, this war is going to continue for another year or two, with the next presidential election in Russia playing a big role in how it ends. Food prices are going to increase unless there will be considerable government intervention to markets to cover the extra costs and to invest in production and logistics.
Only the first few years after publication matter, because that's when virtually all of lifetime revenue is earned. Revenue earned beyond that is usually not enough to even justify proper preservation, leaving huge archives to rot away.

The pirated copies usually come from people who defeated DRM and made it available to the public. If DRM is harder to break, it means less availability via alternate means.

Previously the liability was held by the ISP that hosted the individual website with objectionable content. Section 230 was written in response to a pair of lawsuits against ISPs, not against bigger webhosting firms like Geocities or Tripod. Without it there would be a strong incentive not to host anything by arbitrary unvetted customers.
I guess we are both aware of those mechanisms. We just assign different importance to them.

I have a question though... I just found this: https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm

Does that mean that currently US banks don't need to hold any fractional reserve? Or is this about something else similarly named?

Does US still have fractional reserve banking?

That kind of explains the surge of inflation. I guess all those other mechanisms are way to weak to counteract it.

To use your parlance, USA got nuked with money.
Agreed, but the point of (good) education is not inject revealed truth but train people to think. The different "definitions" are in reality different social contracts so there is nothing to agree on (but one can question which types are more appropriate for what type of economy etc).
The python example is missing the most important part, which is how to make your script work with external dependencies. Here is a working example.py with external dependencies:

import requests

def get(self, url):

Neither a completely unmoderated nor a perfectly moderated platform would have ever gotten to the size of the giant centralized platforms we have today. It just wouldn’t have been possible.

And I think a good bit of the problems on the internet today are because moderation is inadequate on these huge platforms, but they are passed off as safe places for everyone. It has blurred the line between trustworthy and untrustworthy, everything is now just ambiguously okay-ish.

True, that’s pretty common in industrial and commercial settings as well. Though here I’m thinking more in terms of a residential setting. Relying on a secondary fluid loop would likely raise the cost quite a bit due to the extra components required.

They’ve raised the global warming issue about current refrigerants but what really matters is the economics of isocaloric vs. vapor compression because there are more modern refrigerants[1] that have quite low global warming potential. It makes that argument carry less weight than it used to imo.

The key point I am making, and what the article seems to imply, is that people would steal less if food was more affordable. And corporations are still raking in record profits so there is still a surplus.
Similar to that, my favorite party trick is knowing how to pronounce https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mihaly_Csikszentmihalyi and finding an excuse to saying that when I run into social scientists, psychologists, and the like, who all ought to know but just refer to him as the author of Flow, the psychologist with a complex name, etc

PEP-508[0] explains the grammar for "extras":

> Optional components of a distribution may be specified using the extras field:

identifier_end = letterOrDigit | (('-' | '_' | '.' )* letterOrDigit)
identifier = letterOrDigit identifier_end*
name = identifier
extras_list = identifier (wsp* ',' wsp* identifier)*
extras = '[' wsp* extras_list? wsp* ']'

as well as explaining their behavior, albeit briefly:

> Extras union in the dependencies they define with the dependencies of the distribution they are attached to.

The resolution on . is explained by the pip documentation[1]:

> pip looks for packages in a number of places: on PyPI (if not disabled via --no-index), in the local filesystem, and in any additional repositories specified via --find-links or --index-url. There is no ordering in the locations that are searched. Rather they are all checked, and the “best” match for the requirements (in terms of version number - see PEP 440 for details) is selected.

I don't think so. Big Government uses Big Tech as a tool in its arsenal. There is no greater surveillance tool. Trying to keep them separated is like trying to keep Big Government separated from the Military Industrial Complex. They are two sides of the same coin.

The main problem with that is awk breaks down as soon as you have comma in your csv's data. There is frawk if you want to process csv with awk.
actually, sometimes "native" English is much harder to read for non-natives than a non-native writing, due to 1. less vocabulary, and 2. more straight forward sentence structure.

This is a highly unproductive attitude and outlook to have. It is precisely when families are starving that you want to encourage more people to produce and sell bread, and for people who are consuming more bread than they need to, to be as economical/non-wasteful in their consumption as possible. That is, people using bread for unnecessary uses like to feed birds, or who don't eat all their bread before it goes bad, should buy less bread so that it is available for others who have greater use of it (eating every slice, because they're hungry). The only workable way to do this is through the price mechanism. Raising prices incentivizes people to consume less bread, so the marginal bread consumer (bird feeders, etc) consume less, and it incents marginal producers to produce more bread.

Vilifying the making of profit of scarce goods like bread during a famine is exactly the wrong idea, and only makes the problem worse. We _want_ people to be able to make a profit by helping others. If as a society we shame people for selling bread when there are hungry people, ironically there will be less bread sellers and prices will go up.

The way to alleviate food insecurity is to promote more competition among food producers/retailers, and to allow price signals to work their magic. Of course, combined with a reasonable redistribution scheme to provide a baseline level of income to people.
Nix has an install step to use a package, AppFS does not -- not having a step is easier than having one. If you want to use a package, you just use it.

Additionally, I'm the author of AppFS.net just redirects you to AppFS.rkeene.org -- I'm not sure what kind of disclosure is needed when discussing it in this context though.
