It's way easier to find "smaller" content creators on TikTok than Meta's apps. Youtube has been improving a bit in that regard but my recommendations still have too many videos I've already watched. More than half of the accounts I follow on TikTok have <25000 followers, many with average views per video under 10000, with a diverse topic range including: woodworking, software dev, comedy sketches, book reviews, history trivia, exercise tips, urban design, etc. Those who complain about seeing only unintelligent garbage are unwittingly revealing themselves to be the target audience for such content.

Least Privilege in Practice
Long long ago, I needed a new website hosted and with no other decision towards the host than I had never tried GoDaddy, I gave it a shot. Within hours, I regretted the decision immensely. In comparison to my previous hosting experiences, it just pissed me off at almost every turn. It was the first time I experienced a company trying to make the interface for non-techy types and made getting to the guts of the tech hidden behind many layers that just frustrated me to no end. I canceled my account and have never looked back.

It is just another one of the examples of a company that advertises that intensely is probably a company I don't really want to be involved.
Proxmox with native docker support would've been a dream. I know, it's easy to add it on top (since it's basically a layer over debian), but you still wouldn't get the native GUI support and the proxmox features that come with it. I don't know why they are so keen on not adding docker, and only focusing on LXC. LXC is fine, but it's pretty clear that it is far from being as popular or commonly used as Docker.

As I recall, Tenacity started with some significant reworking of the development toolchain. But I get your point: that's not something end-users normally care about.
Isn't that exactly the same phenomenon but with a positive outcome? Ford setup a long-lived foundation, and it ended up up reflecting the priorities of the future staff and bore little resemblance (or was even opposed) to those of the founder.
Ooh, that's awesome!

> Exceptions make it difficult to find failure-points in the code

My experience doing Java, Go and Rust has been completely the opposite. Exception stack traces in Java are amazingly wonderful things - they exactly pin-point the failure points in the code. The amount of hunting I need to do to find out where something failed in the call stack in Go/Rust is tedious. You need a module/crate for error tracing or you up waddling against a strong current of despair.

That is partly a cultural thing though, isn't it? I went to the USA as a camp counsellor in the 80s and was really stuck by the difference in attitude to winning and losing between the UK and US. In the UK it is generally considered ok to lose at sport, as long as you give it your best and conduct yourself in a sportsman-like manner. The US attitude (on my camp, at least) seemed to be to win at all costs. During the final week of sports competition at the camp, the boys would be so psyched up that the losing team would almost always burst into tears. Even the 15 year olds. Not all what you would expect in the UK.

It was a strange few days. The big multi-bus-sized balloon was ignored for several days while it loitered over sensitive areas, then, suddenly, they turned up the sensitivity and may have shot down hobbyist balloons. It's as if NORAD etc., were caught unprepared and had no idea which way to go on this and were waiting for a decision higher up and then went bananas.

Still there's something incongruous, it was claimed the USAF did flybys before shooting them down to ensure the balloons were not misidentified manned balloons.

This is a good point! But to be maximally precise: variations between each ISA implementation's latencies is not particularly important; what's important is that instructions on data-dependent paths are not themselves data-dependent in timing.

In other words: it's okay if AMD64 takes 9 cycles to execute an instruction while IA32e takes 7; the problem arises when AMD64 takes 9 + k cycles for k bytes of input while cryptographic engineers have tested on IA32e and assumed a constant overhead of 7 cycles.

I love how people rail against shareholder value.

But then, they fail to forget that…

Shareholders are also pension funds, people with 401k’s and rank and file employees.

The actual problem is wealth inequality and the fact that a select few burden the majority with most of the risk while they reap most of the rewards.

In one way or another employees are always shareholders even when they’re not holding any certificates.
The reality is that Autism as a whole IS NOT one single spectrum. It's a lot of different symptoms, needs, quirks, and crossover with a bunch of other mental illnesses as well, like social anxiety. Describing it as a singular variable "Spectrum" produces entirely wrong conclusions.

It's more like a 10 dimensional space, at least, with each dimension being a symptom or needs category. For example, I don't think anyone would diagnose me with autism, or even old asbergers, but I have a lot of sensory issues and struggle to parse speech and faces.

If you are aware of someone having some form of autism, and you want to know more about "where on the spectrum" they are, simply talk to them, ask what they struggle with, ask about their needs. If you didn't have to talk to a family member or nurse before talking to them, they probably don't need huge affordances.

After a decade+ race to the bottom with investment fees, ESG funds enjoy some of the highest fees out there. ESG == profit, and no big firm wants to be forced to eliminate their biggest profit makers and operate at a competitive disadvantage.

If you live in one of these states, you - the investor - will be paying higher fees for your non-ESG funds than people that live in states that let the market decide.

Yes, but “if you can” does a lot of heavy lifting here. In most cases you can’t, and this is when Rust’s ? is used.

The verbosity and complexity of `wasm_bindgen`/serialization between JS and Wasm (written in Rust) is primarily the thing I am frustrated at here when I see hundreds and thousands of Rust code. A concrete example: creating a Websocket client in Javascript/Typescript vs in Rust/Wasm.

In general though (outside of Wasm), Rust is less readable.

And with regards to Rust errors, I've found Rust errors related to Tonic and Diesel to be quite annoying/unreadable. The Diesel docs seem to blame Rust for this (can't find the docs for it right now).
Which was in itself the genius of this newton guy. It’s one thing to realise that objects falling accelerate. It’s another to realise that F=ma, and that this can model objects falling as well as a bunch of other things. Surely da Vinci wasn’t lucky enough to have an apple fall on his head ? :)
Are you saying that other hosting companies in the same level of complexity are just better, or possibly alluding that other companies might not be upfront about things occurring within their orgs? Either way, it really sounds a lot like you're minimizing the negligence and just poorly run company.

Productivity is output per hour worked, yes. What happened at the start of Covid is that many of the jobs with bounded output (services, food etc) shutdown, leaving the white-collar work which is less bounded. Less hours worked but most of the money made implies that productivity would increase.

The same thing happened in reverse in 2021. Not complicated, but for whatever reason this isn't obvious to people.

A "destructive" editor is just an editor. Your text editor is a "destructive" editor. A "non-destructive" editor does no editing, and instead stores (in a separate file) a sequence of patches to apply to the original file, resulting in your desired output. This isn't really editing, but the industry didn't do a good job at naming this stuff.
Similar experience with Brazilian Jui Jutsu. If you pick up these sports late, you fundamentally move differently from the guy that's been fighting since he was a toddler. I can tell you the second someone walks in if they have a wrestling background. Experience helps but every now and then you come across someone that's picks up more in a year than you do in 5. Just look at J Rod winning ADCC's this year as a blue belt.

CEOs act like kings and treat their office as their kingdom. Prior to the pandemic I can recall large companies moving their offices or headquarters so that the CEO or other executives had a shorter commute - the rest of their employees be damned.

These RTO moves are likely a mix of executives looking to reclaim their kingdom, backdoor layoffs, and maybe some financial move related to real estate investments or something to do with taxes. Unfortunately I'm not an expert about how companies manage their tax burdens with regards to real estate purchases or leases but these decisions seem to be about personal importance (for the executives) or some hidden red ink that isn't related to productivity of the work force.

As far as I know you can install any addons you want, you just have to create your own collection. Those default addons you see are only Mozillas standard collection.

Even do I would like there were more addons to choose from as default I can understand Mozillas choice here. And that is that most addons are not design for android and they would not work or give a very bad UX. So for many non tech savvy standard users, that just would be frustrated and blame Firefox, this decision can make sense to select god and popular addons they know works well.

But it would be great if more addons could be added ofcourse, and that Mozilla could have some design guidelines for new addons that they should work for both desktop and mobile (where it make sense). And mark in the addon store which addons that are design for both. Or maybe have a simple setting in Firefox for android that is for advanced users, there they could add any addon, but first they have to check a box that they understand that the addon may not work correctly on a smartphone.

Please don't report your own experience samples as plain universal facts. It is one of the more common means by which falsehoods spread. I have no doubt that's not your intention, and you believe what you write, but you cannot have a basis for such a bald statement, and it happens to be false.

I have seen prototypes built and discarded very frequently. Indeed in an earlier incarnation it was my own professional focus.

I have no idea how common it is in your country, or globally, or in specific industrial sectors. Usable stats in tech are hard to come by (in large part because of its ubiquity). But your statement is just false, and commonly repeated.
They aren't though. You say "help debug it" as if you are actually lifting a finger to help. In reality, you have a problem that a company provides you an app for free and wants your anonymous data to help improve it. Something that cost you nothing in terms of time or money. Also something you can opt out of if you find that agreement disagreeable for whatever reason.
This reminds me of the reason Five Guys has open containers of peanuts prominently displayed in their stores: they fry in peanut oil. Ironically, peanut oil doesn't have the allergen that triggers most peanut allergies, but explaining that is difficult, so they just went all-in with the free peanuts everywhere branding instead.
My understanding is that being able to hide Home pages predates Focus modes as it was the poor (and hard to discover) solution to what the Apps Library became (for apps that you needed installed but didn't care to see all the time).

But yes, Focus Modes definitely elevates it to another level when you've got Mode-specific pages.

Photoshop is still a destructive editor, it just has layers to separate what you're destroying. Smart objects are the non-destructive way to do it in Photoshop, but you can't really do a lot with them. A better example of a non-destructive photo editor would be Affinity Photo [0], which by design everything operates similar to a Photoshop smart object.

A lot of replies here which are based on out of date information and misunderstandings about deep learning super resolution (DLSR).

Firstly, this isn't just doing edge detection etc as happened 20 years ago. It's creating a deep learning model which fills in information based on extrapolating from looking at lots of other images and making an educated guess as to what is most likely to be present. It's a fairly new approach and works much better than previous methods, given enough training data.

This is, of course, imperfect, but claims that it's just to "look good" and is of no practical benefit are incorrect. For instance, we published a paper using DLSR in microscopy, to help experts identify synaptic vesicles. In the original images the experts had a 3x higher false negative rate compared to the DLSR images.

Finally, claims that this can't be called "super resolution" are ignoring years of peer reviewed published research in which this is exactly the name used for this approach. Yes, super resolution can also be achieved using other methods which take advantage of additional data (such as multiple images), but that does not mean DLSR has to be called something else.

(I'm not involved in ArcGIS Pro, but am the lead author of the fastai framework which underpins ArcGIS training behind the scenes, and have published papers and tutorials on super resolution using deep learning.)

Yes, you use the Yubico Authenticator app, but it's entirely local only (runs fine with all networking switched off).

It's available for Mac, Linux and Windows, as well as Android and iOS. On computers your key needs to be inserted into a USB port. For Android and iOS I use the NFC key and I just scan it against the phone after launching the app.
> You can move somewhere you don't require a car.

There are very few cities where you can get around without a car. Even fewer of those are affordable.

This is more problematic as people age. Should elderly drivers retake driving tests? Many argue yes, but no one provides a solution as to what to do when you take their license away. In most cities you'd be screwed.

The Register had a direct quote from Charlie Munger on this question.

...Munger isn't keen on semiconductors because they're too capital intensive.

"The semiconductor industry is a very peculiar industry: you have to take all the money you've made and with each new generation of chips you throw in all the money you previously made, so it's compulsory investment of everything … to stay in the game," he said.

"Naturally I hate a business like that. At Berkshire we like a whole lot of surplus money to come in that we can do something else with."

Asked about Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC) – which just delivered Berkshire Hathaway a fast and tidy profit – Munger said he thinks the company "may be a good buy at these prices."

If you got an electric bike, that could help with the sweat. The breeze with the extra speed and the reduction in effort really reduce the amount of sweat dramatically. Or just bring a change of clothes and maybe a towel if that is tolerable. For the rain, a bike poncho works pretty well, especially if you pair it with rubber boots (maybe have a change of shoes ready). For the cold, gloves or bar mitts work pretty well. For the chain grease, you can get a full chain guard to house the entire chain if you want, or just tuck your pants into long socks, or get a pant clip. Given how much maintenance people often have to do on cars, a little care to have the right gear for biking is often easily well worth the effort and cost.
