My recent F-Droid blog post explained what UnifiedPush is in detail, basically:

> until now, the only option for push notifications was Google’s proprietary service, Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). UnifiedPush is a new alternative that allows you to get push notifications without being tied to a single company.

> Applications that support UnifiedPush can receive notifications via a dedicated UnifiedPush application that maintains a single server connection to receive all notifications. We call this “UnifiedPush application” a distributor;

Conversations is now a distributor, and UnifiedPush-supporting apps like Element or Tusy can receive notifications through it.

sure, I guess I'm wondering who is the target audience and what are they supposed to get from it? As a cautionary tale, it seems both incredibly specific to your exact product area, yet also lacking detail to make it a case study that I felt I can learn from.

Not trying to be negative in any way, I was just a bit confused as to the intent and purpose.
I currently use a pi-hole. In a home of 2, we have 74k queries per day. That would effectively be a 4 day trial... so I can understand the other person's frustration.
When at home, I alternate between my phone, and my chair. When on the phone, I lie down and scroll, which fixes any issues I had sitting, and repairs my back before I sit down again. The only caveat to this is my phone is a consumption device and nothing productive ever gets done on it, apart from the odd teleconference.

For offices, I've heard many of the trendy offices have bean bags so you can comfortably use your device.
> When a society is run by people

I tend to find that idea is adjacent to conspiracy thinking.

If society is being “run” by anybody then either (a) they could do a much better job of it for themselves, or (b) they are very good at hiding.

“Powerful” people seem to often have the same problems as the rest of us: they seem to be on the receiving end of systemic issues they don’t understand as much as any of us, they often work long hours, they still get tragic family issues and chronic health issues.
I’m sorry that happened - that was hard to read :(

In my opinion, in ANY relationship if someone demands full control of all communication, then they are trying to hide something.
Importantly with aircraft the time you have to correct an error that requires human pilot intervention before you crash is far greater than in a car. This is basic critical thinking... But so many people say we have autopilot why not driverless cars? Well obviously driverless cars are orders of magnitude more sensitive to error conditions on open roads than a plan flying in empty space.
Definitely not expected, no. The two are different versions of the app, though.
The argument here is that society holds the humanities in contempt because their students aren't held to any meaningful standards --> aren't taught to do anything useful. I think that is dated, but was the sense ~10 years ago. Today, they are seen as an active threat to society by many, with their one main contribution being promotion of intersectionality / DEI / attack on freedom of speech & meritocracy.

That's interesting, thanks. I can see how practical techniques will make most sense if they are closer to what you're doing.

I'm wondering how to bridge that gap so there is some assurance for the organisation as well as training for the developer.

Learn to differentiate between facts and editorials/opinions.

Alternative media isn't very good at presenting basic facts correctly, something institutions still do well and can only spin so far. Alternative media outright lies about facts.

I don't mean to sound rude, but honestly, if this was the team's original idea for YC, then either the two co-founders are extremely qualified and talented, or YC has begun funding moonshots in the dark. It doesn't take much thinking to easily conclude that it's a bad deal for devs.
The amount of what you owe is fixed at the time of a 0% interest BNPL purchase, just like a real purchase. Even if the interest rate is not 0, it’s still fixed.

It’s not a margin account where you have to call it if the value dips too low over time.

What in such simple concept is so hard for you to understand?
I use YouTube as a juke box, or background noise quite a bit. However, thanks to Long Covid, I really have a LOT of time on my hands that I can't otherwise use actually outdoors doing things, nor do I have the budget that I'd otherwise have from a job to be able to buy stuff and work.....

Ok... maybe I do have an addiction ;-) ;-(
Perhaps this might work for you:

When I was playing World of Warcraft too much, I decided that each time I saw a loading screen, I would do a small amount of pushups or sit ups. Nothing crazy. 5 or 10 or whatever. Less if I was tired, more if I was bored. It was a tiny physical barrier that made me think more cautiously about what it was that I was doing, and kind of "broke the loop" of the mindless activity I was doing.

Perhaps you could institute something similar. Each time you open a new tab, you do some sort of physical distraction that gets you out of your chair. If pushups and sit ups aren't your thing, it could be something as simple as "Get up from the computer and walk around the room for 20 seconds". If there are stairs in your house, you could walk up and down them once. If you don't have stairs, maybe you could put some resistance bands by a door in your house. You walk to that door, grab the bands, and do some resistance training for 5 to 10 seconds.

The thing that really helped it sink in for me was that it was something that was physically removing me from the computer. Moving away from the computer and then coming back helped to me see just how much time I was spending there. The soreness in my arms and core also helped reinforce how much energy was being devoted to the activity, too. It became a reminder that, "Yes, I have loaded into a lot of different zones today. What have I accomplished? In the game, I suppose I made a few gold or whatever, but for me the person outside of the game, what am I actually accomplishing? The point of the game is to have fun - am I still having fun? I started doing this workout stuff because I felt guilty about what I'm doing. Is that sense of guilt fun?"
Yeah, I think homebrew keyboards are converging to a local optimum because 2D is much easier. Take a PCB, solder or hotswap the swithches, add some acrylic plates or a simple 3D print and you are done. Dactyl-like keyboards require a 3D printer, long printing times, sanding down imperfections, etc. And then the palm support story is not great.

The homebrew market is ready to be disrupted by someone who sells injection-molded components for curved keyboards, so that it can move out of this local optimum. Maltron sells separate cases, but the design is dated.

Until then, I agree, just get an Advantage or maybe Glove80.

They don't usually form out of nowhere that quickly, but they grow upwards that quickly in case of unstable air. Unstable in this context is a function of the temperature gradient of the air mass with altitude, a bit simplified: If the temperature in an air mass is decreasing rapidly with altitude you have unstable air.

What happens is that some parcel of air is pushed upwards by something (e.g. surface heating, wind over surface features, a cold front moving underneath). That parcel of air will cool down due to decreasing air pressure. But if that cooling down happens at a slower rate than how much cooler the surrounding air is, it will still be warmer and keep accelerate upwards more. This can repeat itself to cause rapidly rising air.

If there is a lot of moisture in that air, the effect is worse. Because at some point that air will have cooled to the condensation level where relative humidity becomes 100%, then the moisture that was in the air will condensate and form clouds. That condensation process will release latent heat, helping the rising air parcel to keep rising further and faster.

And these are exactly that kind of conditions that cause big cumulonimbus clouds to form, which are dangerous even to airliners. Around the tropics, these clouds grow much higher than in more northern or southern latitudes.

My reading of the article is that there are two main claims in it:

1 - There exists an optimum amount of working hours that maximize the society's wealth.

2 - A competitive labor market will maximize the hours worked, completely ignoring the optimal value.

Without any justification you accuse me of being a disinformation agent, which I absolutely am not, and request the moderator “nuke” me. This approach to this complex problem is really toxic and unhelpful imho.

I would also point out another commenter you are implicitly aligning yourself with in this discussion stated the IFR of Covid is 1-2% (or 1,000-2,000 per 100,000 using their notation). That my friend is pure disinformation!

I’d be curious if you have any comment of mine that you can point to which is disinformation, especially in comparison the the blatant example of the IFR.

Somehow it doesn't surprise me that the experts had the hardest time with the abstract art.

> With this genre it’s very hard and the idea of cohering logic is important. Most abstract paintings come from a debate about what’s necessary in the mind of the artist, rather than what’s arbitrary.

This is why I've never been a fan of this particular style - it feels to me that if you have to know and understand the history of the artist in order to appreciate a piece of art, that means it's lacking something fundamental. Basically every other style of art can stand alone - you see the painting and you can appreciate it solely for what it is, without any other context (though context may certainly add to it).

Though perhaps I am just an uncultured boor!

This is still making too much of the subject.

Every major server framework was epoll-capable within a few months of the feature landing. Again, epoll won. It's fine. It's more than fine, it's actually pretty great. It's not hard to use, at all (at least relative to other technologies in the same space). It's just not as subjectively pretty as kqueues.

For me, it’s not that I can’t differentiate, but that it’s tiresome. Major news sources frequently blend fact and opinion so it’s extra effort to read their material rather than to just read the source directly.

This doesn’t mean I read “alternative media” but being slightly better than a cesspool doesn’t mean I want to use them.
Similar for me, found solution by removing distractions.

1. Cleaned Home Screen on YouTube with adblocker with only search bar.

2. Somehow YouTube still has RSS feeds for channels. So for channels like oversimplified have RSS feeds like other feed.
3. Also no youtube app just using it in mobile browser.

I think I’m most distracted one, but using this all is resolved for me.

How do they work in California?

I think what your relatives mean is that if everyone has a stop then it'll be messy because everyone will try to go first after they have stopped...

Here in the UK they have installed 2 stops and 2 give ways at a nearby crossing and it's already quite dangerous because no-one is sure what to do: those with give-ways think they should go before those with stops, those with stops think they should go first if they arrived first... honking ensues very often. If you're lucky it ends in a very British "you go first, no you go first" contest, which is not very practical, either.
Pitting employees against one another and framing the decision to leave (or not to burn the midnight oil unpaid) is a classic tactic to extract additional value (aka work) from the worker drones. This is done in any industry as long as there is a culture in place that enables companies to create the illusion of a job not being a pure transaction.

Elements like expected loyalty (to the firm and to colleagues) and other psycho BS are there to undermine the worker in seeing that the relationship would be quite easy if it were seen purely businesslike and transactional.

My contract for example says I am being paid for 40 hours and overtime is included. It also states that my expected time at work is 40 hours.

So I trade in 40h per week for x amount of money. Why should I work even one minute more?

I know that the argument could be that of a lottery. If I put in more effort (aka work additional hours for free) I could get promoted down the road. The carrot.

Or I could be threatened to be first in line if some day lay offs would be necessary. The stick.

I don't play that game. My side business pays enough so that I don't need to bend over for my pimp (I mean employer). I enjoy the stable and secure income. But I have no loyalty to the company.

It might be news for you, many countries in the world have a very superficial presence of iOS devices, and not every company is a multinational.

Second, Web also exists.

Third, this whole thread is about macOS.
The Nokia N-Gage from 2003 definitely had OpenGL ES 1.0 as that was one of it's main selling points, 3D games on your phone to compete with the Gameboy. I remember Tomb Raider in 3D running on that.

>Initially, ES support is coming in the form of software engines. Texas Instruments and Symbian have developed the 3D Graphics Library plug-in based on OpenGL ES 1.0 for Symbian OS-based mobile phones equipped with TI’s OMAP digital signal processors. In addition, Fathammer has integrated OpenGL ES into its X-Forge game software development kit (SDK), which is used to develop apps for Nokia’s N-Gage handheld wireless game unit.

Here's some interesting presentations about early 3D on phones. Just look at all those GPU IP companies we had back then: ATI, BitBoys, Falanx, Imagination Technologies, Mitsubishi, Nvidia, Toshiba, and more.

The fee isn't unreasonable. The things they block off is. Until Apple lets me install an IPA file as easily as something from the App Store, I will mercilessly mock them for extorting the very developers that make them rich.

I'm not an expert here on water transportation but I think water is very similar to rail. Both are much more cost and energy efficient. But they require large freight volumes and sacrifice a lot of the flexibility that trucking has. Unless we change our supply chain philosophy, trucking will likely reign above all other forms of transportation.

It’s not quite a one to one. Copyright law isn’t as arbitrary as it would seem in my experience. Also there’s the conflation of two things here: whether the model is within copyright violation and whether the works generated by it are

The “color of your bits” only applies to the process of creating a work. Stable Diffusion’s training of the algorithm could be seen as violating copyright but that doesn’t spread to the works generated by it.

In the same vein, one can claim copyright on an image generated by stable diffusion even if the creation of the algorithm is safe from copyright violation.

“some representation of the originals exist inside the model+prompt” is also not sufficient for the model to be in violation of copyright of any one art piece. Some latent representation of the concept of an art piece or style isn’t enough.

It’s also important to note the distinction that there is no training data stored in its original form as part of the model during training, it’s simply used to tweak a function with the purpose of translating text to images. Some could say that’s like using the color from a picture of a car on the internet. Some might say it’s worse but it’s all subjective unless the opposition can draw new ties of the actual technical process to things already precedent.
