It's not quite that straight-forward, though, in that there are two competing goals: Small size and looking as similar as possible to the original. We're explicitly willing trade accuracy for size. How much depends on the use, but sometimes we're willing to trade away so much quality that the artefacts are plainly visible. And we're willing to trade more accuracy for size when the artefacts doesn't distract. For some uses compression artefacts are better than misleading about the original, but for other uses, misleading changes would be preferable as long as they don't give fewer noticeable artefacts for a given size.
A sandwich shop is selling you an item for a price. Handing you the item you bought isn't rendering a service, and so there's nothing to tip for.

The idea of tips as feedback is fallacious - a server doesn't know if a 15% vs 20% tip is due to their performance or just the person tipping. And the service has to be really bad to leave no tip at all (and even then, there are plenty of people who do this regardless of service). Furthermore, especially with a to go order, customers won't even see their orders until they get to where they're going and unpack. The real incentive/feedback in the restaurant industry is whether customers come back.

The answer to the larger topic is just say no to attempts to expand the terrible practice - the original Uber had it right. And stop making excuses for not paying attention to dark patterned UIs, like being perpetually "in a rush" or worried about the people behind you in line. Take some responsibility for knowing how much your order should cost, so you notice when the big number disagrees.
Indeed, I'd rather use Discord than MS Teams if I wasn't allowed to use Slack. But in reality we'd probably get engineering departments just switching back to IRC and hastebin.
Someone else recently notice their website wasn't indexed by Bing and they've got a similar message. The whole story is thoroughly documented. Maybe Codeium can follow their steps to resolve the issue?

That argument makes no sense.

Russia doesn’t lose all leverage the moment they shut off the pipeline. They still have the leverage from being able to turn the pipeline back on, which impacts competitors and customers by giving the option.

Blowing up the pipeline takes that option off the table for the foreseeable future, and with the advantage that it doesn’t cause immediate dangerous supply shocks to Allies since it was already off.

Win/win for the Allies (though if public, Western Europe gov’ts would have no choice but to be pissed in public), not great for Russia who has their last leverage knocked off the table.

I personally don’t have an opinion on if the US did or did not do it, and I doubt we’d know for at least several decades.

But the US has done lots weirder stuff with far less concrete potential benefits before. hell, nearly anything the CIA had been caught doing in the 60’s or 70’s has far less plausible justification!

No what the guy told me is that they can't replace batteries because of lack of repairability. So their "battery replacement" is really a full device replacement (even though my device is otherwise in mint condition), and therefore they won't do it until their own diagnostics tell them the battery is dead. And of course I found lots of people sharing the same experience on forums, their diagnostic tool is set to never tell them the battery is dead.
Basketball is not a one-on-one game. Steph Curry is arguably the best shooter ever (also better than MJ in that regard), but no one considers him the best all-round player. Lebron didn't lose to Curry, the Cavs lost to a superior Warriors team; there's a difference. The Bulls with MJ were the best team in the NBA and even when they were without MJ they still had the third best record in the NBA ('93-'94). James has been the best player in the NBA most of his career but not always on the best team; no way were the Cavs a top seed team without him.
I saw this as well for most of 2022. Our company was hiring, and my founder friends would pass me the layoff lists, but I'd never hear back from the people I pinged.

If anyone is struggling and is on the mid/senior/director side of their career (3+ yrs), I'm helping place people at my friends Seed and Series A companies.

VC money is still there but pumping into Seed/Series A companies with more upside now rather than insane B, C, D companies that have no profitability in sight.

There is such a weird cult around this in recent years, sometimes it feels like we're entering a modern dark age.
Wrong. The transactions everyone is talking about here (whether Bitcoin or conventional financial transactions) fall under the banking laws, not the ones about simple purchases.
I don't agree that speech is not a force unless it makes a threat.

Think about what makes you consider "threatening speech" a "force": presumably it has nothing to do with particle physics... is it perhaps that the act of speech itself causes people to adopt behaviours they wouldn't normally adopt? ie.: that it can carry some coercive weight? That it can be used to exploit/endanger vulnerable people in some circumstances?

Speech may be a very very weak force in most (or even "nearly all", just for the sake of argument) circumstances, but there are tons of examples of speech being a powerful force, causing large social and historical shifts. There are both positive and negative examples of this.
Drastically still looks way lower than Samsung flagships (12GB).
It's ironic because you would think companies would want engineers who actually are eager to work there.

When connecting to companies through recruiters, you're expected to still come up with some semi-BS about why you're so excited to work there. But you need to go through the motions because the places you are actually excited to work won't even interview you.
The strange thing is that other search engines like Baidu and Yandex get this right...
I'd expect it's a large number, because I'd expect that most of the people who like the old UI also turn off telemetry.

When Ars Technica did a redesign a couple of years ago, they didn't launch with a dark mode because their telemetry didn't indicate that many people used it. There were a bunch of comments from users asking for dark mode, so they polled subscribers and the numbers who used dark mode were massively higher than the telemetry indicated. Turns out that the people who used dark mode were also the kinds of people who used strict ad blocker profiles which blocked the telemetry
If I am reading the POSIX spec correctly,

test 0 -lt "$1" 2>/dev/null || exit $?;

should be enough to get what you want in a compatible shell.
Yep, you should definitely be wary about joining a startup in a drying industry, like B2B. Ask yourself if the customers/clients of said startup are still able to afford spending money on the product. If the customers themselves are another tech company that is struggling due to their VC money going away, probably not the best choice.
Best to look at commercial fast chargers as a convenience service. You pay more for a 1/2 liter Coca-Cola at the gas station than you would for a two-liter bottle at the grocery store. You pay extra for the convenience of it being right there as you get gas and for it being pre-chilled. For most people's daily use, charging at home will fulfill their needs. If you take a long trip, then you will end up paying convenience rates. But unless you frequently take long trips, it's a small share of the annual cost of using the vehicle. And if you do take frequent long trips, perhaps an EV isn't the best choice for you at this time.
No - it won't happen. The core editor is open source.

At best, MS has some limitations around running some plugins (that they also develop) that require the licensed version of VSCode, rather than the OSS build.

Most of those plugins either use MS servers (ex: Live Share) or use toolchains that MS is historically more closed with (their C++ toolchains).

Generally speaking - you can use OSS Code today, without any issues. There's a flatpak here https://flathub.org/apps/details/com.visualstudio.code-oss and many distros package it as the default...

I run arch and it's in the repos as simply "code" - https://archlinux.org/packages/?name=code

I run this as my default everywhere, and it works a-ok. There is a small subset of devs that would likely feel some pain losing the closed extensions, but the total impact feels overblown to me.
I think you are right but this site is mostly for the "Temporary Embarrassed Milionaires" crowd that identify more with those large companies than with the average worker.

The irony is that many of them are actually part of this layoff reading this and still they don't agree with what is really happening.

The inevitable periodic 'crash' that is part of the capitalist system is a feature, not a bug. It helps suppress wages, keeps workers in their place. So I think you are right on the money.

So many more layoffs will be announced in the coming weeks. But remember: all companies will show (record) healthy profits none the less.

Even the hacker news crowd that lives lavishly and is mostly unharmed by all of this should not feel save at all, you are just as expendable as the anonymous warehouse worker or fast food person.

Speaking of which, the 100K+ tech worker has more in common with the average fast food or retail worker than the owning class: you are worker slaves that fear for their well-being if without work.

Unfortunately I'm afraid the HN crowd is just too comfortable to realise that capitalism is destroying everything, from freedom and autonomy to democracy to the environment.

The UC Davis AR Sandbox is awesome, happy to see there is still work on keeping the idea alive. I've built one for my school quite some time ago and honestly it's just so cool playing with it I almost wish I had one for myself.

This one specifically seems so much more polished than the UC Davis research project with a dashboard for configuration such as color maps, contour lines, sea level, etc. which had to be changed in config files previously. The calibration also seems automated? I distinctly remember the calibration steps to be a major pain.

Also I'm really thankful for the Sandbox project since it was what first got me into using Linux as my main operation system, since I was the only one in the whole place which any idea what a "Linux" or a "package manager" was.

The only part of this project that still gets me a bit mad is the need for the Kinect, it's been getting harder to find X360 versions of these recently and specially the cable to connect it to a computer (in case of using the XONE version). I really wish there was some kind of hardware alternative to it.
Google. I'm done with Google search and waiting for some new competition. My results are filled with spam and cloned fake sites. I barely use Google any more
> 2) Why not document what the issues actually are on that page, so that the website owner doesn't have to guess?

To be fair, why a website doesn't crawl/index isn't always obvious from a search engine's end.
Binding offer (of minimum UL, DL, and maximum latency) AND service must be available within 5 business days at the listed price with no surprise fees.

Failure to fulfill the offer should have a maximum penalty of compulsory purchase of the claimed property at 2x the greater of current market or last purchase price if offered. A penalty structure for late service (E.G. 1 month wait) should also be an option. Maybe 1/100th the value of the instant buy requirement per month (rounded up) of non-service.
> No need to hesitate - you've worked 10 years in FAANG, you'll get 10 jobs offers per month if needed. So, just do it.

Are you certain this is sound advice at the current time?

They are not exactly 'inferior technology' and there are uses for them. But you are right that diabetics these days don't generally take them.

There are generic long lasting insulin alternatives, but none that I know of are available in the US. I believe that's what CA wants to do.

It's because I wrote this app with cross platform software targeting mobile users. Web was an afterthought, so probably one of the packages isn't compatible with web. I put it there mainly for demo purposes. You'll have better success using it on your phone.
The greatest of all time is always understood to mean the greatest of all time so far. Nobody is pretending this is predictive of the future.

Credit where due, spreadsheet applications were already established AND bundled into suites by the time Microsoft got around to leveraging their market position to make Office the de facto standard. But, yeah, I owe most of my career to making real web apps out of badly designed, hard to use, vile to share, yet somehow better than nothing Excel workbooks. Even with all the modern trappings, and besides specific applications like Photoshop or CATIA, you could probably still run a company on just email and Excel, because people will make Excel do whatever they need, no matter how lumbering the monster becomes.
Watching my grandfather slowly die in at-home hospice care, seemingly in great pain--though he was not lucid--was personally radicalizing. The family is told to administer pain meds as needed, but if they don't pick up on the wink, wink, nudge, nudge, the patient languishes in needless limbo.

Literature targeting families reassures them that despite jerking, moaning, and death rattles, their loved ones are not suffering, but hospice providers have very good reasons to want families to believe that. Just now, I found this study that concludes that caregivers are awful at detecting pain in the dying:

> Agreement between caregivers' subjective assessments and objective neurophysiological measures of consciousness and pain was very poor.

> Conclusions: Caregivers' subjective assessment of level of consciousness and pain during CSD is unreliable compared with objective neurophysiological monitoring. Our results suggest that assessments of patient comfort during CSD could have been improved substantially by including objective monitoring of level of consciousness and pain. [1]

In my opinion, it's outrageous that more research and effort is not made to ensure our hospice care is actually effective in giving patients a painless death. Current practices have similar scientific rigor to blood-letting.

> The point being made by the cited article is that a tiny interpreter that activates days or weeks after an app goes live can't be detected by any app store review process. You have no idea how many such droppers are active in the iOS App Store because only Apple can look for them, and nobody knows if they do or to what extent they do.

The point being that Apple doesn't allow information downloaded from random places to be executed as code in third party apps at all. This is literally the reason for the Webkit only policy.

Google does allow it, and they (very predictably) have no way to know if that code will be malicious or not.

Which is why Ars had to warn Android users that they had to be wary of apps downloaded from the Play Store.
On phones, just as on desktops, there is no way I'm visiting any web page, or using YouTube, without uBlock Origin or SponsorBlock. Couple that with other stuff like YouTube Vanced or Tachiyomi, and I'll keep my Android over an iPhone.

A source is a witness. A witness to an experiment or an event. That's the truth we need to get back to
Operating 8.8.8.8 likely gives Google a near-complete list of every active domain on the internet, and new domains show up there the second any 8.8.8.8 user queries it - which is likely well before anyone links to it. I have no idea if Google use this data for hints to their crawler and indexer, but if I worked there I sure would.
I don't know how many people know it, but FOSDEM's video recording infra is a technical masterpiece:

All the rooms have a live capture device sitting on the speaker's desks. This not only streams every room live on the website, but also deposits the feed on a server .
By the moment your speech is finished, you receive an automated mail with a link to cut your video. It is a limited web editor where you can change the beginning and the end of the stream, and changing audio channel too (talks are recorded with 3 mics).
You can accept the video as it is or do some adjustments and, voilà: a quick ffmpeg and the video is online ready to be viewed in a couple of hours.

I don't know you, but I am not aware of other conferences where the video recording is managed with such a DevOps pipeline.

I've been doing this stuff for decades. It has become an unbearable career. It's too late for me in life to change it as there are other circumstances that have made certain paths impossible for me to do. I'm screwed.

Hi Rayiner, you are spot on with your analysis. My name is Eric, and my non-profit, Project Insulin, is tackling this problem head-on as well. We are developing a biosimilar insulin and will distribute it directly to patients at cost. The drug development process is still expensive but much cheaper because of the Biologics Act that was passed in 2020. When going through the FDA approval process, biosimilar insulin makers don't have to do phase 2 trials, and their phase 1 & phase 3 are focused on interchangeability with the reference product rather than proving that insulin is a way to lower high blood sugars.

Another obstacle, as you pointed out, is that there are few manufacturers who produce synthetic insulins. From what I've learned in my discussions with manufacturers is that many are transitioning their facilities to a focus on mRNA drug manufacturing. Therefore there is a limited set of manufacturers who don't make insulin but have the equipment/facilities for it (in the U.S.).

On an iPhone 13 pro right now but miss a few things about Samsung/Note series phones:
Stylus. Better web browser options. Dex. 360 support. knox/secure secondary area. ability to install multiple versions of same app (eg for two diff whatsapp numbers). fingerprint sensor. custom launchers with better widgets. better youtube clients. chromecast receiving. windows and side-by-side displays. And I actually really liked the ability to remap the bixby button on older devices as a dedicated back button. I fully suspect future iPhones will have more hardware (ish) buttons on the sides of phones. or dedicated touch points on the phone rim for certain functions/programability. Especially since 'Shortcuts' are a thing in ios.

iphone wins hands down for battery life, processor speed (especially video/processing), and arguably for some aspects of camera.
