I’ve no association with Retool, but used to lead product for a popular thing that had both cloud and on-prem options.

On-prem is a real pain in terms of delivery. For a lot of customers there’s long lead times and change management processes to navigate to upgrade to a new version. There’s a wide distribution of environments and network topologies that introduce often surprising edge cases. There’s a whole lot you don’t control or don’t have visibility into. Which is almost by design and perfectly fine - it’s why the customer chose on-prem!

But… the trade off is you really want high conviction your new feature is perfect before it goes on-prem. You can just flip a feature flag to temporarily roll back some capability if you uncover an issue. It might take your customer months to negotiate with their internal stakeholders a deployment window for an upgrade.

Now obviously that’s not true of all on-prem customers. But it was true for such a large percentage of them that it was more pragmatic to accept it as the general case rather than have a higher velocity flow for the handful that would adopt new capabilities at a pace closer to Cloud customers.
On the other hand, if you think you did your best, but you keep failing... maybe you actually are wrong about something, and the world is giving you a honest feedback.
"Songs to play while I cheat on my boyfriend"
then why wouldn't they just say that rather than leaving it out and saying a bunch of other stuff? Why say they don't want to work with Twitter when they clearly would rather work with Twitter if the API was still available to them?

like I said, all your words taken together need to make sense, or they are open to reinterpretation and critique. This is the autistic way of sentence analysis.
I would say a more type-oriented mentality would make this kind of bug less likely; thinking of -- as a magic value rather than a different kind of thing from a regular argument makes it easy to forget the distinction, and a mentality where you're "sanitizing a string" is far less reliable than one where you're transforming between two distinct formats.
But Twitter did not close down or pivot into a rideshare company.

Yes, they did close down third-party access to their platform, but that is completely not the same as those other things you mention.

I doubt most Twitterific customers have any idea what a third-party API platform is, let alone Twitter's shady history with how they've treated API developers. Your average Twitterific purchaser probably just thinks it's a premium Twitter app that lets them do Twitter things, and would expect that app to continue working as long as Twitter exists. (Which it still does!)

> On any reasonable viewpoint that's a risk accepted by the purchaser, not the app seller.

If your definition for "reasonable" is actually the definition of "unreasonable", sure. Twitterific's customers should not have to take on the consequences of the risk that Twitter would shut down third-party access to their API. That is a risk that Twitterific took on themselves as a risk to their business, and they should have a plan for what to do in this case. And that plan should not be "beg our customers to pay us for not providing a service anymore". It should include them pro-actively refunding the unused portions of any subscriptions (super gross that they didn't do this, double-super gross that they're begging for "donations"), and then responsibly winding the company down (assuming they don't have any other still-viable products that could keep them going). It sucks that they'd have to do this, but that's what can happen when you bet your business on someone else's platform.
This is clearly on the darker side of gray-hat. Hate to be preachy but anyone seeking to emulate this sort of attack-finding should consider their ethical obligations as a computer scientist and follow best practices for responsible disclosure. It appears this was completely ignored here, including sharing stolen sensitive data of normal people with whoever can plead a case.
I love how you blatantly break site guidelines by insulting people then jokingly tell them to relax when they get annoyed with the asinine comments
> The CCI has ordered Google to not require licensing of its Play Store to be linked with mandating installation of several Google apps such as Chrome and YouTube.

For me (Europe), https://www.fastlystatus.com/ (linked from the link you shared) works and reports no issue. Reddit (listed as one of the victims) also works. So the outage is probably not global.

...and it's up again.
Got it, so the issue isn’t anti-trust law. It’s IP law that, by its very nature, forces people to produce inferior mousetraps.
> What you seem to imply here is both Congress and the Executive branches should just commit more crimes because it's currently popular to do or think a certain way.

I never wrote "should".

The actual in-fact reality is that the court's credibility is very important, and that, as there are both legal and illegal means for the other branches to circumvent or punish them, they've repeatedly decided differently than they probably would have without that pressure and those threats.

That's how the court works. It's effectively how it has always worked. It's not apolitical (never has been), it's not immune to public opinion (never has been) and they've always relied on consent of the other branches to enforce their decrees (that fact is the very justification for why they're allowed to be so insulated from direct public input in the first place)

[EDIT] Ah, I see where you got "should". That's a paraphrase of Jefferson and Madison's opinion (among others), not mine, so take it up with them.
What actions would you propose when Twitter has turned off their API access and basically ignored all requests by developers, users and the media for an explanation?
> I don't get why folks find this depressing. If everything can be done by AI and robots - humans won't need to do "work" for all of our needs to be met. Ie, we can all go on perpetual holiday and/or work on things we truly love.

Ideally, yes. In reality, I think it's naive to think it will play out that way. Capitalism won't allow it to work that way.

Someone who has lost their job to a robot doesn't suddenly get to retire. They still have bills to pay. Just because the farms have completely automated their operations won't mean food is free.

https://www.redditstatus.com - the Reddit status page is showing Fastly London ‘down for maintenance’. Lots of sites are having an issue for me in the UK (including Reddit), even bbc which is usually always up.
I don't think any consular officer would hold it against someone if they truthfully tell "yes, I've been arrested", even if the documentation doesn't confirm it. During an interview they would most likely ask about the circumstances (whenever they know no record of it exists or not), and telling them "I was arrested for [cite the reason if there was any or say "an unexplained reason"], they openly told me they wanted my money, but still it is being detained by some formal authorities (or someone pretending to be such) so I had to answer truthfully" is very unlikely to be a problem. They'd tell the truth, and it's not like they did something wrong.

I mean, immigration is extremely stressful process (been there, done that, currently repeating for my spouse), consular staff are demigods who literally rule over people lives, and people have a lot of superstitions, but I highly doubt it's going to be an issue.

I had a late passport renewal, which is considered an administrative infraction where I've lived. I have no idea how this translates to "have you been arrested or convicted of any offense or crime" on DS-260, so ticked the box just in case. Naturally, I was asked about it - I've explained that I don't know if this counts but that's what happened, and that I'd rather mistakenly mention this than fail to disclose. And everything went perfectly fine.
Compression formats can be made to handle rsync, even if it isn't a thing out of the box - in my ignorance gzip is the only example I'm aware of.

Every time someone posts one of these that seems to be the case. "Patrick Collison personally slapped me in the face and keyed my BMW for NO reason!" See comments where it turns out they're selling anthrax to baking blogs branded as instant yeast.

My point was that the Tonkin incident was reported incorrectly and did not match fact; as we found out some decades later.

Tying that to this thread: why is what’s reported about the airlines taken to be fact? (And I’m not speaking as if I mean this is malicious (as the Tonkin incident was) - just reported incorrect from fact for other “capital friendly” (face saving) reasons.)

Didn’t someone say “believe half of what you read…” somewhere?
The right wing has absolutely no values or principles any more and is totally about performative obstruction and opposition to anything they don't perceive as far right as they are, as demonstrated by McCarthy taking 15 rounds of voting to get elected to Speaker of the House by his own majority. They're much more passionate about using gas stoves and abusing drag queens and electing pathological liars than any "traditional" conservative issues.
Some 3rd party apps did mention before they would comply with such a rule if an ads API existed. But they don't exist and now with almost no dev left at twitter, it was unlikely to happen anyway.
Ghost is one option. It’s modern and clean and can import content from WordPress: https://ghost.org/docs/migration/wordpress/
Incredible! So the problem is not -- but the problem is that it is checking the wrong thing to begin with. Why even parse the string, sudo already had the list of files when it constructed the string..
i answered a similar comment in a parallel thread, but if that's what happened they should just say that and not say "we don't want to work with twitter anyway" when in fact they do.
Easy to clean, modulo things which breach the sealant and stain. Can be used as a dough board or make-pasta-like-martha-stewart work surface (see above re: sealant) or if you are a real slob to cut on (see above re: sealant)

Can be installed with pre-carved draining slots to sink, so gets rid of the "where to I stash this ugly plate rack" dilemma for would-be insta-princess shots.

Mainly, "it's fashionable" -By now, the 1970s avocado-colour toilet suite has probably moved into historically preserved home space. Stone benches were actually a thing in worker housing in the early 19th century. 'Het Skip' in Amsterdam and the Bauhaus designed worker flats have concrete sinks and workbenches on this design pattern. Amazingly functional for mass production at that time, long lasting (see above re: staining)

My family told me that ChatGPT came up from the pulpit AT CHURCH

Me? I made a few comments like a scared luddite when ChatGPT solved two of my outstanding engineering problems instantly.

I got better. But this is exactly right. The world in general now knows about AI and ML. It’s a pivot point.

You've straw-manned this. Netflix and Twitterific are the same thing: you pay a subscription and you expect to receive value in return.
They never mentioned publicly, they never communicated it.

But you can likely guess that this is about ads.
And mainframes run on concrete floors, maybe construction companies run the world by that logic?
I don’t know if you’ve been paying any attention but Twitter nuked the API keys for the most popular 3rd party apps with no warning and no point of contact to appeal. Blaming on the app developer is willfully blind.
So Bare-metal is excellent for smaller boards, like ESP32, Teensy 4.1, or the tiny microcontrollers like AVR DD / ATMega, PIC, and STM32F4 or STM32G0. So are lightweight OSes like FreeRTOS. There's also Arduino (set of libraries), which is somewhere between a proper OS and bare metal.

Rasp. Pi however is extremely powerful, far more powerful than any computer we had in the 90s or early 00s. The idea of running RP4 "bare metal" is rather weird to me. RP4 has so much processor power on it that a proper OS seems like a no-brainer.

-----------

Looking at Ultibo, it seems like it has a threading library (https://ultibo.org/wiki/Unit_Threads), so that makes it an OS in my eyes (at least as much of an OS as FreeRTOS).

Hmm, I think from a marketing perspective, they should discuss how Ultibo builds compare against minimal-Linux builds? It'd be great to compare Ultibo-Hello World vs Alpine Linux-Hello World (Alpine being the smallest Linux I'm aware of). Maybe have a comparison vs Ubuntu for good measure as well.
asdf is still better than having lies sprinkled in randomly.

What atoms are they using to entangle to create a qubit? How exactly are they entangling these qubits, and re-entangling them post-measurement? I can't find specifics on the quantum CPU architecture in terms of the actual atoms used for entanglement, and how any of the supposed qubits are re-entangled between measurements.
Is an interesting case

IMAO This is a trap to force the scientist to introduce religion in their work. Researchers should not spend their time studying religious concepts to validate religious questions. Is bad for them. In the best outcome, the scientist will lose valuable time and their prestige will be linked and borrowed for a religious agenda. At the worse case if the answer is not the same as in the religious books it will spawn more and more questions and the scientist will soon find themself tangled in an hydra of philosophical minutia, and fighting against a closed group in the undesirable role of outer enemy that must be critizised, cancelled or menaced with the goal to reinforce the sense of community.

This people should be redirected directly to ask any religious doubts to a religious figure. Period. Don't let them abuse of your time.

Zoologists are not trained into the subtle details of the concept of kosher. This is the work for a Rabbi. If the Rabbi needs a biology book to study the question, the researcher could kindly suggest several sources so he can start learning.
Yeah to get the working result I had to reword the problem a little. In my post I kinda assume you could fine tune a model to do that. It is a little cheap though.
If two US presidents in a row (and probably more) can bring classified information home, who are they to request me not to?
The reason they are for LGB only, explicitly dropping the T, is because modern transgender activism redefines homosexuality to be attraction between people of the same gender identity, rather than the same sex.

As a result, you have situations like, for example, males identifying as lesbians expecting actual female lesbians to be open to dating them, and accusing them of transphobia if they decline. This is a problem as by the usual/previous definitions, the former are heterosexual males who are imposing themselves on homosexual females.

This sort of thing is what the LGB Alliance was set up to oppose, given that most other gay rights organisations (Stonewall in particular) have fully immersed themselves in the ideology of gender identity.

My contribution through Smile was $102. I also thought this was very small for the amount I order, however, combined with other Smile customers donating to the same charity (Feeding America) Smile generated $846,092 in donations to the charity. That made me feel better about the combined effect.

I did the whole thing from scratch. I was not trying to emulate anything in particular, I was working with what we had in the hardware to optimize.

Apple laptops can charge each other; I believe the second one you plug in charges the first.

I haven't tried a feedback loop however.

A possibly more useful scenario that I've seen when power outlets are scarce is daisy-chaining multiple laptops to the one that is plugged in.
The 2000+ billionaires in the world sure do have amazing timing. Truly flawless almost.
I maintained an adversarial browser extension with around 100k users that added stuff like tooltips and keyboard shortcuts to a browser game, for about 3 years. The reward was the developer copying a couple of my easiest ideas, then sending me legal threats and banning a bunch of my users (who were their paying customers). The engineering time they spent (quite a bit) trying to detect my extension or break it could have been spent doing things like adding ARIA roles and alt text, but they don't care about people with disabilities.

I kept it going for 3 years because I cared about the people who used it, and the developer struggled to block it because it's hard to outwit someone who worked on web browsers. In the end though, it's not worth doing free work for a company that doesn't respect the needs of their customers. Go elsewhere.

This applies to all goods and services. If everyone else is charging a fixed fee on top of a proportional one, and then one vendor advertises having no fixed fee, you can be certain that they're recouping it some other way - be it a steeper slope, non-linear pricing, or just a bunch of extra fees that will materialize after they lock you into a contract.

Yeah cause we should totally have a top secret no fly list
I ordered a pair music monitoring speakers. Only one came in the box. Amazon wouldn't accept my return because I only returned one speaker, not two. I had to fight them on the weight of the 'two' speakers they shipped me and finally they realized they were hit and that based on weight the package they sent me couldn't have contained two speakers. The amount of time that took locked up a fairly large chunk of my funds for way too long. I will never make a high dollar purchase on Amazon again.
No, I am referring to monetary grants by Wikipedia themselves, which are only a Google search away, if you'd care to look.
Am I missing something? It seems Maia didn't share the data at all, and only offers to if someone can demonstrate they will use it responsibly.

Moreover, depending on the contents of the list, this likely offers proof of what is generally suspected, that the no fly list is a form of discrimination and authoritarian overreach, targeting people that haven't been convicted of a crime but are "suspected" due to race, religion, etc. The whole thing is probably unconstitutional/illegal, but it's hard to prove that since it's been secret.

This seems like a clear case of hacktivism- trying to expose an unethical government program for what it is, so that it can be stopped.

> they've repeatedly decided differently than they probably would have without that pressure and those threats.

To quote the "Dude" (Big Lebowski reference) - that's like, your opinion, man.

Each of the recent high profile cases are clearly constitutional issues, despite the populist sentiment to the contrary. Further, for some of these issues, Congress has had the entire history of the country to set correctly - and has chosen not to.

You should be angry with you Congress people, not SCOTUS. SCOTUS doesn't get to make up laws... but somehow people have come to believe they should when it's "righteous" or "morally right". SCOTUS doesn't even consider those factors, they only consider the text itself. Congress is free to consider those factors, but doesn't...
