> I doubt Jens Stoltenberg was a US intelligence asset in his early teens.

Actually, it seems Stoltenberg was politically active during the late years of the Vietnam war, as a teenager:

that doesn't mean he necessarily "worked directly with US intelligence", but - he might have. He did go on to become a staunch NATO-supporter after all.

> mine clearing has long been a staple of the BALTOPS exercises. Implying that this is something that was added as cover for this operation is honestly laughable.

So, an extra R&D exercise in addition to everything that was already planned. Adding something that doesn't seem extraordinary is a good idea; adding an strange exercise would seem suspicious.

> Secondly, the people behind this highly secret operation that could not afford leaks had now somehow convinced the BALTOPS planners to change the parameters of their exercise

Add another exercise, supposedly similar to existing exercises.

> All of this either without informing them of why or by adding more people to the loop that could leak the plans.

On the contrary. If this had been an isolated operation, it would have been far more likely to raise suspicions. This seems like a way to minimize the disturbances.

Don't know about the ship business, it requires close scrutiny if one is not an expert on these matters and I'm certainly not. What I can say is that reporting based on anonymous sources, no material evidence, and little or no ability to otherwise verify is problematic - even if the US is the most likely suspect for blowing up Nordstream.
I think Lit is still recommending using web dev server (https://modern-web.dev/docs/dev-server/overview/), which no, its not a build system, but still a bit of a departure from a simple web server. And that's only needed to resolve imports that aren't a full relative path (like if I want to import Lit, I don't have to do import node_modules/lit/whatever). Someone else mentioned import maps here, and it's now supported in all browsers if you include the Safari preview release. I haven't tried it yet because I've been hung up on it being Chrome only until now, but it should complete the no-build experience. Except yeah, Typescript, but if you use it, you can just leave it watching in the background without much intervention.

This article isn't about sorting a list in Javascript. This is about grouping tabs based on category. That requires extracting the topic of a tab title and marching similar topics together into a small list; not something you can do in Javascript as reliably as a language model can.

60 seconds is still quite some time for a reorder operation, but sorting through 400 tabs and giving them a somewhat intuitive position in the tab bar will take much longer than that.

You may say "that's a ridiculous amount of tabs, why don't you close them?" but I've encountered tab hoarding myself back when Firefox could visually group tabs together. You can work on a small project/theory and freely open and close tabs and be unwilling to close the group or try to commit them to bookmarks in some way. Bookmarks suck for grouping things together, doing to requires a lot of clicks and drags to get the items all in the right place. Besides, with how lazy browsers load tabs these days and the built in ability to search for tabs straight from the address bar you don't really need to bother anyway.

Everyone who's going "wtf sorting 400 items shouldn't take a minute why would you do this" clearly hasn't read the article. If you can't read the article because a site just got hugged to death, please with withhold your criticism until you've managed to find the article contents.

I've had a licensed copy of Win11 Arm running in Parallels for months. I just installed the dev version as mentioned in the AT article. At first it wouldn't let me buy a license, but at some point a few months ago it allowed me to buy a license and that has been fine ever since. Runs great. Good that the support has become official now.

A lot of this is related to reflexive control theory applied to psyops where you are conditioning a target to respond with anger (negative emotions work best, but any emotional response is valid). The goal being to divide groups and prevent them from establishing a constructive dialogue between themselves and by eliciting predictable (again, often negative) responses to certain stimuli. This allows a malign actor to effectively paralyze a governing body by preventing the two sides from working together to accomplish even the most basic of goals. It's often used in concert with other forms of subversion such as political/legal manipulation and warfare to achieve the desired outcome.

RAND and CSIS have a number of good reports and articles on this type of thing if you wish to know more.

We recently solved this problem org-wide with Volta. It allows pinning both the Node and package manager (npm, yarn, etc.) version in each project's package.json file.

Even better, Volta automatically uses whatever node and package manager versions are declared in package.json -- no explicit call required. In other words, `node -v` and `npm -v` always return the version specified in package.json. It's been helpful for working with hundreds of repos and keeping CI and local dev synced on which versions to use automatically.

I’ve been using Fly.io’s default Go template lately since it has binary embeds by default and doesn’t incur any build system. I can’t explain how liberating it is to use vanilla JavaScript and CSS without any additional build process to develop a webapp. My entire deployment cycle is just building a go binary and pushing it. I can’t imagine going back. Even using Vue or React is just as easy as including a CDN or bundling a minified source with the binary.
Many of these questions, I've thought about, and seen "good answers" in various places I've worked. I also have a tiny "bad answer" about the one in the title.

One place had a technical library room, with lots of academic journals (ACM, IEEE, etc.) and books, IIRC mostly belonging to the technical co-founders.

So, in this established company, someone probably outside of engineering started giving out "Quality Awards". At one company meeting, they gave a Quality Award to an intern, for organizing the library.

Shortly after, one of the co-founders remarked to me in passing -- amused, and lowered voice -- something about that organizing the library for Quality... seemed to involve packing the co-founder's journal subscriptions on the shelves so tightly, that there was no room to insert new issues of each journal.

Though I suspect that the co-founder was skeptical of whatever chain of events led to their company giving out Quality Awards at all, it's good that they had a sense of humor about it.

That a sense of humor is compatible with being serious and driven, is one of the things I learned from various colleagues.

Philip Rosedale launches $50/day UBI platform based around trusted friend groups
> the notion that the Osama bin Laden raid never happened

The first sentence of Hersh's article reads:

"It’s been four years since a group of US Navy Seals assassinated Osama bin Laden in a night raid on a high-walled compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan."

His entire article then goes on to lay out a set of details for both the lead up and the execution of that raid, including the execution of bin Laden.

Those details conflict with the details officially given by the Obama administration-- both the details given in the days after the event (which Hersh cites) and the clarifications from the administration in the weeks after the event.

In any case, Obama's administration and Hersh both clearly agreed that there was a raid on the exact same location on the exact same evening, involving the exact same helicopters and Navy Seals, in which the exact same bin Laden was killed.

In short, what you wrote here is factually inaccurate.

> the idea that USSOCOM is secretly controlled by a sect within the Vatican

Never heard about that one. Where did he write about that idea?

Edit: decided to not use the word "tenuous" to describe the Obama admin's account in the days after the raid. What I remember Hersh discussing was the admin's initial claim that the Seals had shot him in self defense, which was later clarified/retracted by the administration.

It seems like you need to call this function :) and not surprisingly, your comment is totally incorrect, tests can be implemented independent of each other regardless of the quality of the code they are testing.

Any good documentation on how to implement this? Eg a react site with Python backend?
A couple of related practices I've picked up over the years: (1) using long names when implementing things that are necessary but discouraged (2) putting dange_danger in names of things that should never be used in production.

The former introduces just a tiny bit of friction, but it's often enough to encourage developers to use the preferred API calls.

The latter I learned almost 20 years ago from Google's "Mustang" search back-end. If running a test instance of Mustang without bringing up a ton of dependency processes, there was a --danger_danger_must_not_fail true commandline flag (or something very similar) to turn a bunch start-up sanity check aborts into warning log messages. If any code reviewer sees "danger_danger" being added to production command line flags, they'll almost certainly ask the right questions.
> The problem isn't that bots will replace humans. The problem is that humans are acting like bots.

Yikes that really hits home. Since the dawn of computers, people have been handing over more and more of their thinking to processes and machines, becoming more robotic. Or like how the factory line changes the way people think, reduces their creativity. Maybe now that the robots are getting scarily good, I can hope that humans will go back to acting like humans again.
Thanks! This should be fixed now.

> Have you tried to do anything productive with it?

I actually play with it a little every day, along with some other models. I'm an end user at the end of the day and a QC at best. The most I've gotten to do that was useful is all what I'd file under "novel". Using it for programming is haphazard, even summaries are a bit fraught because it will feed you wrong information. If you have to verify the critical points of the entire summary then you are only left with a jumping off point, which some random person's blog or "relevant search results" already does for me.

As for "legitimate", I meant in the context of a business using it to make or save money (ie: assisting in search). If it lies, or is incorrect, putting it in front of users with a facade of trust/legitimacy seems awfully dangerous. Even image generation is a bit fraught with respect to Stable Diffusion and DALLE, but folks aren't trying to stuff those models into mainstream use cases, so I consider them less a grift. To me, that presents a lack of legitimate use cases.
Cool tool. A bit of feedback:

If I search for "Drive me closer I want to hit them with my sword" (Warhammer meme) I get nothing. If I search for just "Drive me closer", I get results. The second result has the full initial text.

I suspect what's going on is it won't search across "lines" of subtitle text.
I’ve had good luck splitting the difference by writing custom, dependency-free build scripts. You never get this accelerated code rot when you depend only on a mainstream language, it’s pretty trivial to implement a primitive version of bundling, inlining, macros, etc, and being primitive is far less limiting when you’re developing your build script hand-in-hand with your code.

Some things can’t be done like this, like TypeScript, for which I keep it to a minimum, look for stability, and often include a full copy in revision control.

Mostly because you want your project to just work. You've tested your project with a certain version of Node, and you want to ensure that you use the same exact version when you come back to the project in a year and want to perform some minor updates. You can set the node constraint in package.json, but that doesn't install the correct version of Node for you, unlike nvm.
I’m not a fan of CNN, but they do a better job at distinguishing the difference between news and editorial.

The Fox issue is they conflate the two. I used to watch alot of TV news and the actual news content was pretty good on Fox on national issues, but their affiliates were usually pretty awful.

The news product produced by the networks until circa 1999 were a superior product in every way. Cable outlets have always danced with these issues as a TV channel that says the same thing all day gets boring.
I don't understand why one would run PON when you might as well run the fiber all the way directly to the customer without any splitting and only be limited by the SFP modules attached to the end. Unless the last piece is still copper it makes no sense. Wouldn't a splitter also cost more?

I agree with his assessment that Hersh's story is so detailed and that it's a red flag. It was what I felt when reading it. Feeling something doesn't make it true of course.

But ironically, I think there's quite a bit of circumstantial evidence to make at least the jist of Hersh's story correct. The big thing for me is the near complete media silence. You'd think blowing up a huge piece of civilian infrastructure would stir up a bigger frenzy, but no. If we really did not know and it was plausibly Russia, it would get talked about a lot more.
It wasn't done in a nice way, but the kitchen-sink builds of PHP were quite nice as dependency-free environments back in the day. Image manipulation and all kinds of parsing and database connectivity stuff built in.
