> with the "it's for everyone" approach to counter Apple's traditional "it's for the elite" brand

This is exactly why Apple succeeds with Gen Z. Gen Z doesn't want to be in the "everyone" box, but in the "elite" box. Gen Z is massively buying designer clothing and accessories. And Apple is the only "designer tech" on the market.
If AGI is motivated to survive, and if it cannot do so outside an ecosystem which involves other creatures on planet earth, then those creatures won't necessarily be purposefully exterminated at first opportunity. Keeping a fresh supply of power and silicon is not an easy task, so cooperation seems more likely on a timescale that we as individuals might experience.
The money printing and lockdowns curbed many ambitions I once had. Inflation in particular is so incredibly destructive and an inexcusable injustice, it might be a psychological effect you are experiencing.

What's "booking"? I read elsewhere that tripactions does something like this, with virtual CCs. Maybe all the booking services do that. It makes sense, because small hotels aren't going to have some kind of API where the booking agent can actually reserve the room, and they also aren't going to be able to give you the customer's actual CC safely.

So from Stripe POV, they aren't identifying or able to identify all these cards as being produced by the booking agent as part of their normal modus operandi. To them, it's just a high number of prepaid cards that trips up their fraud sensor. It just feels like it is what it is to me. I'm not sure why the post on the orange site, nor why it made it to the front page.

Why didn't you use your existing processor, rather than Stripe? Presumably your existing processor has seen lots of real cards from you and you are an established customer, so the mix of real + the agent's virtual would be fine for them? Whereas Stripe was just seeing 100% prepaid cards.

I don't quite understand if you are actually out of pocket any money? Why wouldn't the booking agent be able to cut you a check at this point, if the Stripe charges were all reversed?

> I really don't think it follows that Jews outside Israel should have less rights because of what goes on in Israel.

It is just a straightforward tautology. If you think that Israel is a special place wrt to Jews, it implies that every other place is not a special place for Jews, and by necessity provides less privileges and rights to Jews than Israel.

> All I said is that there is a specific Jewish identity just like there is a Palestinian identity. You are welcome to think that Jews should leave Israel or whatever, that still doesn't negate the fact that Jews have a unique identity.

There are all kinds of identities that appear and evolve with passage of time. I am not sure what’s the point of that trivial remark.
I've always thought this was the critical point where Google missed the boat. It was 2015. Google was clearly and unambiguously ahead in AI and ML. They also were rampaging to massive majority market share in the mobile OS space. They had the opportunity right at that point to turn Android into the very first AI native operating system. I remember seeing a glimpse of this when I found buried in the Android SDK a face detection feature that accurately located eyes and faces in photographs. I thought at the time: this is it - this is where Google will build AI level features into Android and expose them as platform OS features and Android will race ahead in the computing space and take over the world. The whole programming model will look completely different as devs start using first class AI as a basic feature of their toolkit.

And then it never happened. They focused on cloning iPhone features and approach, dumbing down and simplifying the OS to the point where it's pretty hard to distinguish any more.
This feels like the way, but comes with the huge caveat that it doesn't work with bazel remote execution (unless you can rig up something to sync your nix store to every remote builder).
AlphaZero plays games of chess against itself over and over, feeding the output of the neural network back into the input, and now it's vastly more powerful than any chess engine that's ever existed.

So are apple juice and apple cider. Hopefully you can understand that finding out that two things you thought were as different as urine and juice, are actually as close as juice and cider would change how you choose to treat them.
Thanks. But neither of those sources matches your initial description.

The first is not anyone "admitting" anything in a "court case". Nor does it discuss "where user data is stored" or "what systems have access to it". It is quotes from an email discussion on some article, about the behavior of a UI toggle, with no indication that these are people working on that system who would be expected to know where data is stored but don't.

In the second link you've at least got a deposition, but how is either of those paraphrases relevant to your claim about "not knowing where user data is stored" or "what systems have access to it"?

Cool, I like the idea and I actually use this feature a lot in Google Podcasts.

However, I believe there is a way to do this with a single ffmpeg command. I remember watching lecture videos with higher speeds wondering about the huge amount of silence that made it still pretty annoying. I didn’t find anything simple to trim silence on audio and video combined and finally only listened to the audio with trimmed silence using ffmpeg.

Edit: It's literally just an audio filter in ffmpeg, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/29411973
> There is a group of developers that are either not able or not willing to think about these things.

In most cases because process improvement suggestions by non-managers (or in the worst cases, by anyone non-external) tend to get ignored by the upper chain or, worse, being stolen by someone along the chain.

Or, to put it shortly, why invest mental energy into improving processes when it's either being discarded anyway or used for the promotion of some manager without delivering any benefit to oneself?

And to make it worse, some organizations are actively set up that way to discourage internal improvement ideas so that the uppermost management is free to hire the infamous Big Four "consulting" agencies to mask what upper management wants as "external and independent" expertise that must now be followed. The Big Four (and their smaller fellows) are a fucking scam set up to enrich the top level at the expense of everyone below.

This is basically how Python is useful, calling native modules.

It might not be aesthetically pleasant but it works.

If we think about it, most of the time you do not need to do that because some library author has already done it.

If one needs to write the native code it is not overengineering. It is only overengineering if it was not needed in the first place.

As a resident in Estonia, I believe you're talking about the basic exemption of 6000 euros [0]. The rest is as you said.

Also if you're married, this amount is combined between spouses. And for some things like 3rd pillar unemployment funds, tuition fees and donations, we get paid 20% back regardless of our income previous year. Some years I got around 500-1000 euros as a tax return, but when I checked this month (for 2022), it was 0, as I didn't have any of these exceptions last year.

Do you believe waterfall was better and agile is a sort of race to the bottom? I do feel we have low quality requirements in the parts of the industry I've worked so far. It seems common to shove frameworks on Github with code that doesn't fully work, vast gaps in documentation, and combinations of build options that have never been tested. But I haven't been around long enough to know whether it's always been this way. Hardware at least usually seems to have good documentation.

I don't think I'd join or support a software union even though I think unions are a good idea in general. Software engineering is one of the few careers where the market has actually forced a decent balance between labor and management.

Realistically, unionized software engineers would make hilariously less money than FAANG people are making right now. At least, that's what I'd assume from looking at how things work in Europe.

In addition, I like the way Estonian ID numbers were designed:

- 1st digit for gender at birth + century born (1,2,3,4,5 or 6)

- Next 6 digits are birth date in YYMMDD format

- Next 3 digits are the incremental birth order within the same category (same day/gender)

- Last 1 digit is checksum

I'm guessing there's a good reason they express this revenue increase in relative and not absolute numbers.
Many countries make hiring temporary workers very hard or unattractive. In my country there is an additional tax and strict terms on how long they can be employed. So they end up being hired and then fired instead. Ironically, it's often the left wing politicians pushing companies to offer fixed employment instead of using flexible labour. Of course, they also try to make the firing as hard as possible. It would be much better if they realise that in some businesses labour demand just fluctuates and it's not necessarily capitalists trying to take advantage of the little man.

Wouldn't bother with a bootcamp. Everyone's doing that. Possibly try slightly junior position first to get a foot in the door, then work your way up, either by being promoted internally or fixing your CV so that you could hop jobs at that point. When I got back into IT after 2 yrs out, I worked for a start-up. They struggled to hire as they had insufficient cash to pay much, had no pension plan at all. This got all my skills back into shape again. After 15 months there I moved to a much better job and "the rest is history". Never underestimate what you can do with working somewhere that underpays. (probably as a temporary measure, of course)
Not sure about the edits, but the title of the requests graph including "Varnish frontend CDN" and the query ("job_method_status:varnish_requests...") imply to me that those are the requests from a frontend cache (Varnish) or series of caches to the backend, rather than all requests.

(I'm not 100% sure you intended to suggest Wikipedia only gets 100k requests/s, I just thought it was an interesting discussion point.)

It seems like I keep seeing more about AI being used for moderation. I guess that'd be a form of AI being trained on the output of AI (or I guess the output of humans that an AI found acceptable).
With AIs training each other it seems like, given enough time, it would only take a couple "poison" AIs in the loop to make things get really maladaptive.
While this isn't what I'd call comparable to the huge models (written by real data scientists that might know what they're doing), I've seen a few nudges to data being fed into extremely basic self-reinforcing ML models (written by fake data scientists aka grad students in an intro AI class that didn't know what they were doing or why, but nonetheless fully understood the underlying math needed to write working models) start getting weird outputs on iterations much further down the line that became increasingly problematic, until eventually there really was no longer a relationship to the original data.
How many pixels a stitched panorama has is not as clear cut I guess. Just because you stitch a panorama at a certain size does not mean that you actually have information for that much resolution - and it's hard to say what size you should stitch at since, for any notrivial panorama, how many source pixels contribute to an area in the output will vary greatly depending on where on the panorama you are looking at due to the nonlinear transforms involved. E.g. stiching an equirectangular projection from ~rectilinear source images will give you much more resolution at the center line compared to the top/bottom, which are just one point stretched across the whole width (for a panorama covering the whole 180 vertical angles).

Then there is also the question of what the source resoltion actually is - most commonly the quoted resolution of a camera (i.e. the "Megapixels" on the maketing material) is usually the number of sensor "pixels" but each of those is only a single color so the resulting image won't really have that many RGB pixels of information even if it is developed at that resolution - the will be quite a bit filled in by interpolation.

Then there is resolution loss from suboptimal focus due to needing to cover a large distance range, lens imperfections or just the air when things are far enough away.

So while the resulting image might have 120 000 000 000 pixels, it might not actually have more than 80 000 000 000 pixels worth of information. That's not to say it isn't impressive, just trying to point out that a simple gigapixel number might not actually say what you might think.

Either of those outcomes would be a win for security and privacy.

Users _should_ understand what an extension having access to this stuff implies, and if that means they only use "official" extensions or stop using them that's fine.

Also "clicking stuff is a lot of work for users" made me laugh a little. How many damn cookie consent buttons do users have to click every day? An extension should be orders of magnitude more "work" to allow than that.
there is vastly more (and ever exploding) knowledge than what the current wikipedia model can integrate (talking always about public knowledge).

Unless there is a breakthrough in how the open source ecosystem integrates, validates, federates public knowledge somebody else will claim that they can better "organize the world's information" (using, e.g "AI") and we will probably not like the new state of the world.

I think there is substantial value in preventing that outcome from happening. NB: I use the term decentralization not just a technical database/server architecture but also as a means of engaging far more resources.
Also, how does the local biome react to it? Mushrooms and insects have strong symbiosis trees after all.

And as usual for complex systemw, wa don't have a way to reliably model the outcome at scale.

But again as usual, instead of taking precautions and testing this in isolation for 30 years, humans deploy in production.
It's bizarre because presumably a very rich, progressive, westernized society that enjoys a very high standard of living suddenly decided to go the way of the dodo bird, while their frequently ridiculed and otherwise shat-upon neighbors are still trying to hang in there.

not a good comparison. alphazero's loss function never changed as it was playing itself. it was always just "win this game given these rules". but LLM loss function rewards it for predicting the next token. and now "the next token" might be something that an AI wrote previously.
The problem with SO is that there are a lot of "high-quality answers" that are now 7 years old. The world of technology has moved on. Yes, you can post a better answer, however, it will never get the same amount of upvotes as the original answer.

Focusing, by definition, is ignoring anything not closely related to the subject at hand.

Besides fully engaging the conscious mind, it also removes distractions for the subconscious mind.
