There are a lot of things that supplements are claimed to help but clearly don't. That being said there are things that have promising scientific research about benefits and this article lacks any information on EPA omega 3s separate from the others which ultimately makes me disregard any conclusion of omega 3s as a whole.

Look into the potential effects of EPA omega 3s specifically on depression and the potential benefits compared to or combined with anti-depressants. Andrew Huberman had it in his episode on anxiety and depression I think.

The impact of omega 3s on adhd is also an interesting area of research.

Using a click bait "brain-boosting" description completely misses the point of many studies that show that certain diets low in different omega 3s cause different problems for people.

The very first Unix I was exposed to was from Sun; I remember seeing the logo on their servers and thinking that those were the most beautiful computers I had seen (which isn't much because I had hardly seen any servers before that).

A little bit of that.

A lot of it is also they like having the capability of picking up the phone and getting someone to prioritize / look at an issue they care about. Good luck trying to get an OSS dev to do that for you if you're in an industry that dev doesn't like (i.e. military development).

With a negotiated support contract you have assurances that developers are willing to deal with you, that they're probably not going to just up and vanish, and that they've at least agreed to at least consider issues that you run into.
I probably wouldn't be happy, because what? Are we children?

Part of the issue is that lawyers get too free of a hand sometimes. We signed, agreed, that part is over.

Frankly I have never attended an "exit interview", and never will.

That said, if someone want a reminder sign, as you say, I'd expect the corp to sign one too, and give me a copy, as well.

>And that valuation is created entirely due to IP law.

In that case, the value of land is created entirely by property law.

A farmer has the exclusive right to land from the existing fixed supply that the entire world has available to it. He didn't create it and no one else can use it.
Whereas a software developer makes something new. Nobody else was deprived of anything pre-existing. Less justification for taking code from a developer than land from a farmer.
Yeah this is pretty sad. I play an instrument (used to hate music as a kid but somehow paths crossed). I always felt life is best to be about multiple passions instead of all in one thing (whether work or art or sport etc). This could be a great thing for "indie" hobbyists? Sure use AI for stock things but May be we will value the "local" artist more? Or chamber concerts? Or the good old fashioned private dinner with that author? Or a soccer class with Messi's old teacher/coach who lives down the road.

The teacher in me is also optimistic. May be all this AI generated will be great for teaching and democratizing art for students who cannot afford to learn or have easy access to learn!
Maybe NixOS? I've barely played with it, but this seems like the level of isolation/paranoia that NixOS seems to offer (as far as a layman like myself understands - could be completely wrong on all counts, as usual).
I assumed that chatGPT was just a supercharged Markov chain, predicting the next word in a sequence, but lots of the discussion suggests it isn't, or at least was billed as more.

For example, this behaviour isn't unexpected if it's just really good at predicting the next word statistically.
That may the difference between good world-building and what people think good world-building is.

People think that if the author doesn't know everything about the world, it's not "fleshed out". But if you look to some of the best fiction out there, the world is more suggested than built.

I think a good example of this is George Lucas. He went from good to bad by doing the thing people perceived as good. In the original Star Wars trilogy, things just are. The Clone Wars were a line. A throwaway to explain why Leia was seeking out Obi-Wan never having even seen the man. Han and all of his pre-trilogy relationships are given surface level explanations. You never go deep. What happens between A New Hope and Empire is suggested, alluded to, but never explained. And why should they be explained? All the characters know these things. There's no need to exposit these things again. You're given the impression that there exists a much larger world than the small window you've seen.

Then, in the prequel trilogy, everything is presented as backstory to some other element. Stormtroopers are the successors of the Clone Troopers who are cloned from Jango Fett who had a clone made of himself he named Boba. Of course, Jango is also a bounty hunter. Anakin is from Tatooine. Chewbacca rolled with Yoda back in the day. We know, biologically, exactly what allows people to access the Force. And on and on. Everything is given an explanation. And that, ironically, makes the world feel a lot smaller.
> Verificationism isn't some stunning riposte.

No, it's the minimum required to be taken seriously.
The `rem`, `div` and `divrem` functions also all optionally take a rounding mode argument that lets you have the behavior that matches any rounding mode, where `RoundToZero` matches `div` and `RoundDown` matches `mod`, but there are actually a total of seven rounding modes. Most of them are pretty useless, but if you need some style of division and the remainder to match, this is very helpful.
I don't know any adults who drink milk. I'm sure some do, but I wouldn't count on that as the solution to Vitamin D deficiency.

> It is completely unreasonable as a blanket statement.

I personally find your position unreasonable: that you should be entitled to use property that is not yours how you see fit, because it’s more convenient to you.

In reality, any sane organization wouldn’t punish you for reading the news on your work computer, but to assert you should be given access seems unreasonable to me. You’re paid to do a job and they provide some tools for you to use to complete that job.
So you're the one who keeps taking the company's pens ...

More seriously though, there are frequently restictions of the use of office equipment (or business equipment in general). Businesses will often overlook it if it is not a problem, say if you need a photocopy of a rental contract. They have the discretion to say no if the privilege is being abused, say if you started printing hundreds of pages a month for personal use. The misuse of pens is rarely seen as an issue since they hold little intrinsic value and are routinely replaced.

Should they be able to claim the rights to something you produced with their equipment? In most cases, no. I'm not going to say in all cases no since there is always going to be someone who pushes the limits beyond reason. (Say a person develops a piece of software with a company computer to sell on the side. Can that be construed as the business indirectly financing the development of the software by providing hardware and/or software tools?)

In general, it is always a good idea to do personal stuff with personal equipment and business stuff with equipment supplied by the business. I'm sure the coworkers who are searching for the missing pens will thank you for doing so.

Who "browses" Medium?
In Germany some banks continue offering the old FinTS API, which from the customer point of view is what PSD2 should have been (i.e. not necessarily referring to the technical implementation details of the API, but the fact that it gives more or less full access to everything you can do with your bank account, and that it is directly useable by regular customers, too).

After a quick search I found this list of banks, though no idea on how current or complete that list is: https://subsembly.com/banken.html
Hotwire: Build web apps by sending HTML instead of JSON over the wire
Hey there,

I created a new startup, and i'd like to have your feedback about it.

I've been using many messaging platforms: Slack, Teams, Discord, telegram… And it's a nightmare to manage. So I created my solution where you can have all your chat in one place.

For example, you use your favorite chat tool, and your partners, customers, and agencies use their tools - we support Slack, Telegram, Microsoft Teams, Discord, WhatsApp, or Text Message (SMS).

My first clients use StartADAM for a variety of purposes:

- External collaboration: bring service providers, clients, vendors, agencies, and external firms into your Slack team from any tool they prefer

- Enterprise: let different teams chat from their preferred & highest-performing chat app (e.g. Sales teams use Microsoft Teams while Product squads use Slack)

- Freelancing: use one chat app to interact with all clients

- Sales: bond with customers & stay organized

We're on a freemium model, so you can test it for free and let me know what you think about it!

They don’t, though. As cited in the last discussion about this, the theft rate for Apple devices is much lower than ones which are usable by criminals.
I think they're offering a paid version. which goes along way toward the alignment problem with advertising.

you want to keep making my $40 offer a better bot. The question is do you as a company turn away the opportunity to incorporate ads into the products. (paid for advice)

chatbot as a service is a good business model, but free chatbot with subtle ads is a way bigger opportunity.

I also dislike this name, as it was not clear what it does just by looking at the name.

Recently, I was adding a similar abstraction to Rust on a project I'm working on and I called it `AbstractProcess`. Like, it is some kinda of template for a process. Still don't think it's clear what it does by just looking at the name. Does anyone have a better idea on how to name such a pattern?
I have no intention of trusting our civil institutions with access to my private data. In fact, as a citizen of the United States I would like to see the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution more widely held to prohibit our civil institutions from having access to my private data.

Are pioneer.app terms to be taken seriously?
I got an unsolicited email from pioneer.app asking whether I was interested to apply to their incubator program with one of my ideas. I was amazed that they found that particular project, so it didn't seem like spam.

I had a look at what they offered and also had a scan of their T&Cs. Under IV. Proprietary rights, I found this:

> If you submit an Idea to us, we will presume that your submission was voluntary, unsolicited by us, and delivered to us without any restrictions on our use of the Idea. You also agree that Pioneer has no fiduciary or any other obligation to you in connection with any Idea you submit to us, and that we are free to use your Ideas without any attribution or compensation to you.

Obviously this not the sort of thing I would expect of a serious incubator but perhaps I'm mistaken there. Is this kind of blatant abuse of my rights as founder normal day-to-day business nowadays?

I did replied asking whether there was any protection for my ideas, e.g. NDA at least, but never got a reply.
You can import epubs in apple books. At least in macos.

I could not for the life of me find a setting to correclty transliterate Japanese names to my native language.
I only found three states:
1) Display original Japanese characters
2) Transliterate. Here the problem was, that oftentimes, it used the chinese pronounciation of the characters instead of Japanese.
3) use translated names, where a lot are missing, and then it falls back to the original characters.

openstreetmap.de (my local variant) correctly transliterates even the smallest region names in Japan.

In the end, I used Google Maps to navigate during my vacation, and everything just worked.
> So this is not a risk if your threat model is "attacker obtains a copy of my .kdbx", but it is a risk if your threat model is "attacker can modify .kdbx without me noticing, and can access my local computer or a mounted network disk to read the exported passwords".

No, the threat model is "the attacker can modify config file", which for default installation also means "the attacker can modify the executable".
The biggest weakness of ChatGPT is that you do not know the source of the information that it presents to you.

With Google, you can apply human assessment and judgment on the veracity of the information based upon your knowledge of the reliability of the source of the information. With ChatGPT that is not possible.

Good point. Reminds me of poetry, where it's the constraint that demands creativity. Necessity, mother, invention, etc.
Intel's Horrible Quarter Revealed an Inventory Glut and Underused Factories
What I recall from Erlang writings and videos is that, basically, Ericsson's C++ developers didn't want their cheese moved and successfully deployed the obvious (and not obviously unreasonable) arguments about how C++ was the industry standard, as above. I think Armstrong also admitted that the Erlang crew had a bit of a cocky attitude and wasn't great at winning others over.
> "Over the last few decades hamburger buttons have become the de facto standard to expand larger menus on smaller devices. They are so ubiquitous that every user immediately knows what they are when seen in the top left or right corner, which makes them a good user interface element choice."

"Last Few Decades"? Eh? A decade.. perhaps?

"Every User Immediately"? This is not at all my experience. Perhaps with younger users, but I've seen plenty of people younger than I even stumble over sites where the nav was hidden behind a hamburger menu icon.

This sounds like it was written by someone very much in their own bubble

Sometimes the advantage is not just the ability to do something -- I mean, by that logic, only bare-metal systems languages like Rust, C, Zig etc could have advantages over other languages.

Erlang (and by extension Elixir) has the advantage that the programmer can think at a higher level about their system. You don't have to write or configure a scheduler. You don't have to invent supervision trees. You can be sure that the concurrently-running parts of your system cannot possibly affect each other's memory footprint (though Rust gives a robust answer to this problem as well).

It doesn't make a perfect fit for every problem, but there is still a decent-sized space of problems -- I'd say "highly concurrent, but not highly parallel" -- where Erlang gives the programmer a headstart.

But unlike Linux, OpenBSD is not only the kernel, it is also the userland.

The project could start moving critical software to Rust. They could even write their own crates for this purpose, or fork others’ crates to rule out supply chain attacks.

None of this would be unprecedented for the OpenBSD project. They have forked Apache, OpenSSL, they maintain their own SSH client and server. What would be new is that now all of this would not be happening in C but in another language.

Edit: I don’t even think that the above has to be done in Rust. It could be done in any other modern language. But you also mention the complexity of Rust. In what way do you see it as an infosec problem?

To me it appears that the complexity of Rust is good. The limitations that the language puts on your code give you pain before compilation, not afterwards. It makes you do work that avoids certain kinds of memory and logic bugs.
It actually copied some stuff. Not much, but it did, and that's bad.
We already have something similar with bicycle registrations, and of course with cars (titles).

There should be a big cerimonial thing where I go to a place with a sworn in official, show my ID, and say "I hereby lock down this device for all time with the power of cryptography" so that nobody can use it as long as I'm considered the legitimate owner.

OK I'm exaggerating. But the problem is real. If you buy a second hand device this can happen, or if you have a company and a previous employee doesn't unlock it for some reason. Yeah, ideally you should have documentation of an unbroken chain of ownership and should be able to go to Apple. But in reality that doesn't happen, and I think Apple isn't the best custodian for this. They don't have an incentive to reduce the number of thrown away producs. (To be clear, I wouldn't trust current governments either! But conceptually, this function belongs in the civil area and not in private hand.)
most contractors will take cash as payment. some offer discounts. wink wink.
> In the absence of theft, it's difficult to imagine why the owner would be refusing to unlock the device,

It's generally not the owner refusing to unlock. It's the owner not being able to work out how to do it. Forgetting or not knowing they needed to do it. And/or not being contactable.
