There are a couple of ways they can try to detect devtools being opened. As the sibling comment implies, the most popular way is to detect a sudden viewport resize, and you can avoid that by ensuring your devtools are set to open in a new window before opening them.

The only other ways I'm aware of are:

- Detecting the keyboard shortcut, ⌘⌥i or equivalent, which you can avoid by using the browser menu, and

- More riskily, evaluating a `debugger` statement and detecting whether evaluation paused. I'm not sure you could do anything about this one, but it would certainly be obvious to you whether it was happening.
You need to do mediation. You think too much about abstractions. And is not able to focus on what is real.

You can try other apps as well but waking up app was the one I found best.

Odd choice for an ethical firm. MindGeek was previously known as ManWin, and was not known to be particularly ethical. Rebranding didn't really change much.

Nor does the industry lend itself to especially great behavior.
Yeah, and you can’t interview naked. What I say is true relative to almost any other industry
That’s partially true but you said “cycling isn’t safer” when the available evidence is that it is. Even in the UK, you’re more likely to be killed on the pavement by a car than by a bike. Say what you like about numbers but cars aren’t supposed to be there. That fact alone should tell you something about the difference in danger.
Just wait until our upcoming reality hits the conspiracy theorists and religious fanatics. Climate change is going to herald in Dark Ages 2.0. I suppose the upside to that is eventually there will be an Enlightenment 2.0 also, and hopefully we'll get there faster than it took the first time.

BTW, Dark Ages 1.0 wasn't even the first time humanity has been through a dark age...

...honestly, it pays to study history to start understanding what's headed our way.

We've been here before.
By that metric, walking is the most dangerous mode of transport. Somehow seems illogical.
ChatGPT Is Completely Down
Couple thoughts:

1. Correctly designed dev tools shouldn’t be detectable from the app itself, especially not if the tools are passively used for observing. This can be abused by malicious actors who can make it harder to detect and warn others. It can also cause heisenbugs.

2. One if those malicious actors is apparently Mailchimp. I don’t use it so I’m not affected. But from a meta-perspective it’s concerning when direct user-hostile actions are normalized by what most people consider “legit companies”. The same could be said about fingerprinting and many other tricks.

3. Meta-meta point: if you’re running a business that does this, the open web is not for you. You don’t belong, and you should try building your own proprietary stack instead. I don’t mind wolves, but please stop dressing in sheep clothing. There’s a paradox of tolerance at play here.
Point being that traditional stylesheet based CSS is all but obsolete now. Any dev can pick one of ten thousand component libraries, slap a few utility classes on the element, and call it good enough.
> Only sRGB colors are supported -- why not linear?

sRGB is smaller for storage. All actual calculations (alpha blending, gradients) are already done in linear space.

I'm not sure doing calculations in linear space is actually a good idea though. Most art programs and the web use sRGB, so accurate conversion isn't possible.
The Corvids – Birds with brains (ravens, crows, jays, magpies)
Is this JEP going to make that possible in Java?
If it's detecting resize/sidebar, does the new "Search Google for foo" sidebar window trigger it too?
On the other hand, it sounds from the thread like the result of the deviation from the spec is "you can't run userspace binaries unless you built them with a binutils that's working around this", so it's not just a "weirdness the kernel has to deal with" kind of thing.
I understand and agree with what you said. But I'd say what you're describing is how people are affected in a superficial level. In the façade they present to strangers. However, I interpreted the original post to mean that, in an intimate level (within a group of friends who trust each other), it won't be that different. But yes, it may be that you are in a place where for whatever reason you can't form meaningful relationships with others. Usually that happens to people who leave their countries, rather than the ones who stay. But sometimes, it can be the other way around.

Anyway, I think the original point is that you really live in the small group of friends and your interactions with strangers, while also part of life, it's less meaningful. So, you can find a culture that matches you more closely, but unless the culture you are in is completely disgusting to you, you're probably optimising the wrong thing.
Interesting, that's what I was curious about. NEON is a bit slow last I checked, but at least Apple is sticking to spec here. It does make me wonder how much performance is left on the table for ARM architectures that want to emulate x86, though.

...it also raises the question of how emulated titles fare against translated ones. It would be fascinating to see how something like Dark Souls Remastered performs through Yuzu vs DXVK on Apple Silicon.
Contemporary expections for personal careers and the mode of modern work is fundamentally hostile to people/families having children. Legally mandating parental leaves aren't going to stop private sector businesses from subtly discriminating against new parents, and parents' work-life balance is tilted towards children for at least the first decade after childbirth.
If you are doodling around ts-node is great, but if you ever want to produce a ts library someone else might want to use it immediately becomes a endless eldritch nightmare maze of byzantine frustrating options almost all of which come with trade-offs.

Having typescript built in, having zero complexity, none of these compile-down difficulties is just so liberating, so much bad you don't have to tangle with.
Just emphasizes how much the "existential threat" stuff is a scare tactic to advocate for regulatory capture.
So should we write malicious actors to feed it the wrong information? It doesn't have to be nearly as smart as it can control the conversation.
We need laws to prevent pawning off people we dont care about onto automated care. Everybody should be against this.

> Firstly, technology moves fast but business's move slow.

True. This is one thing that gives me hope at the moment, especially since my country is notoriously slow in adopting technological chance anyway, lol. It's easy to forget that not everyone lives and works at the bleeding edge.

> If you are the one leading the charge then you're probably not the one they are going to get rid of when they start needing less developers.

Yeah, I am very curious and eager to learn by nature, and I grasp new concepts and their relationships to other topics quickly (other's words, not mine), but I've been burned before, so I've become more cautious. I don't fit the profile of a typical nerd so I lack credibility right off the bat even though I have outperformed self-proclaimed seniors on more than one occasion. I've found myself naturally unafraid of taking charge but sometimes people won't let you. For example, I was working on a project where I was technological lead and the dude from another agency we were working with (and kinda dependent on) was referring to me as (non-technical) "project manager" constantly and refused to talk to me about technical matters. Things like this have happened with middle-aged men quite often, who tend to dominate the field where I live. Sorry for the tangent but it might explain some of my cautiousness.

> But it's his dream and that's what he decide was best for him.

Glad to hear it felt right for him. I feel I'm not in a position where I can afford following my dream at the moment.
So why does your status page go back that far?
Now that we can see Vulkan is around 4/3 more power efficient than Metal on the same hardware, I wonder if Apple will budge on their not-invented-here syndrome and allow for a real vulkan.kext on upcoming macOS versions. That would solidify it as not only the best graphical workstation OS, but also the best gaming OS, in my opinion. Part of me thinks they're avoiding this in worry of stepping on Microsoft's toes.
"still can't map their network drives, press stupid buttons"

To be fair, a lot of this may be due to lack of organizational knowledge transfer. I might be able to map a network drive at home, but I'd need someone to tell me what the location and stuff is if it's a pretty-existing drive at work.

But then again, maybe I'm one of the shitty developers you're talking about. I know I'm a low performer.
There is still a lot of momentum because the 2nd and 3rd wave have yet to be burned.

Pre-COVID I was a at a F500 that had gotten screwed pretty hard by an Azure deployment than ended up costing TONS more than anticipated. Even after we made it clear it would be a lot of OpEx. "Sales engineers gonna play games" -- and they did.

New gig is just going down that path, and is, go figure, seeing the same problems. Burned by Azure, and now getting bilked for every last dollar by GCP.
Noob here. What's wrong with file system routing?
No, of course not. These are some of the edge cases I alluded to (did you read both paragraphs?) Political cartoons of erstwhile dictators and competitions for employment are exactly such edge cases.

What you are groping towards is an attempt to find absurd counterexamples that throws doubt on the principle being proposed. This is fine, provided that your interlocutor didn't specifically allow for those counterexamples (which she did.)

If, as a general rule, your ethic permits you to ceteris-paribus harm others, you should probably at least examine your ethic.

That this sort of baseline humanism is now controversial speaks volumes about our cultural debasement.
Depending on whose underpants they are, you may not need a Step 2...
That's expected as that's how transformers are trained. I do have to clarify that it's not likely to be other people's chat session, but more likely to be training samples.
On AWS the default quota for GPU instances is ZERO.

Recently I had to do some performance testing. In the past I would have quickly started 5 or 6 instances of different types, run my performance tests, shut them down and be done within 2 hours.

Since AWS introduced zero quota GPU instances, I had to request quota for one specific GPU instance type in one region and then waited 24 hours till it was “approved”.

At that point I completely gave up on AWS as being a viable part of any GPU architecture.

It gets no less scalable or elastic than that.

I literally could have gone to the shop and bought a fleet of machines and built them at home in the time it took AWS to approve a quota of one GPU instance in one region.
You hired 1 in 50 people you interviewed? Did you have time for anything else? Were you not constantly angry at the rest of the hiring pipeline for wasting your time?
Indeed - I fudged things a bit by talking about TCP there. It would have been clearer if I just discussed IP instead.

> TCP and UDP just have completely separate spaces of socket addresses

But so does SCTP, and ICMP and IGMP and ... -- so rather than enumerate the protocols we can just describe this property of IP.
I used ChatGPT to get a refund from Mailchimp when their CKText editor failed to load on International Women's Day, preventing us from sending an email promotion that day.

I opened the web inspector to show the library erroring when Mailchimp tried out a to load it, and also provided a screencast.

I wasn't blocked, but I did receive a refund.

So this must be a relatively new thing!

If I were the OP, I would complain and request a refund.
> I’ve learned that often people get the most upset about things they haven’t paid for. Free as in beer, free as in outrage.

This is not irrational. I know if I use something for free, I am paying for it in some other way, e.g. I will have ads targetting me, I will be locked in for the future etc.

I don't even need to understand what it is, as I know full well there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Therefore I feel I did pay/ am paying something, and I will be infuriated if the service I rely on is yanked.
A large portion of elderly people don't have vast real estate holdings. Wealth inequality is solely divided along age lines.

Also, elderly people have lots of free time to pay attention to politics and show up to vote. In elective democracies they can become a strong voting bloc in order to prevent politicians campaigning on such platforms from gaining power.
I left Twitch in 2017 and all of these things were true then as well. I worked with quite a few smart people and the perks and comp were great, but damn so much toxic crap going on, and seriously poor management.
Your looking at the wrong "elites". Look at who is preventing 30 story apartment buildings and then you'll know who actually runs the city.
Seems like an ambiguity in semver, actually.

I understood that to mean you don’t have to break updates into their major, minor, and patch changes. Like if you’re at 7.88.2, you don’t have to put all your patches into update 7.88.3, then ten minutes later release 7.89.0 with your minor changes, and then ten minutes after that release 8.0.0 with just the major breaking changes. You can instead bundle them all as 8.0.0 because a major change can contain minor changes and patches, and besides it’s far more convenient to not have to break apart the update.

I do appreciate the logic of your understanding, that “breaking change therefore major version bump” does not imply “major version bump therefore breaking change”.
> Srsly, the expectations on new grads is stupid high

Is part of this because not too long ago, Facebook + Google were basically giving the top new grads $175k signing bonuses to convince as much top tier talent to work for them as possible (and things of this nature)?
> Obviously the resolution, frame rate, and software integration in metaverse will be somewhat better than SL; aside from that, can anyone tell me the difference between modern metaverse and SL, also how does that difference translate into profitable sales?

Most of the modern metaverses are worse than Second Life. Their big advantages were VR, browser and mobile clients. Second Life is getting most of those features now.

Their dev team finally got out of "can't do" mode.
(That's client side. Server side, they still have trouble fixing long-standing bugs.)
They hired some good game devs, and graphics started to get better.

* Frame rates have increased substantially.
There's more multi-threading in the clients now, and the servers have
been upgraded to better AWS instances. Still OpenGL,
but work is going on to use Vulkan.

* Graphics realism has increased, again. Physically based rendering
with high dynamic range lighting is in test. Not subsurface scattering,
though, so skin still looks plastic under some lighting. Graphics
realism is becoming comparable to GTA-V, but not Red Dead Redemption.

* There's a mobile viewer in test. Uses Unity as the graphics engine.[1]

* Full body tracking is in test, and being demoed. It's striking to see
how someone rigged for full tracking dominates a meeting.

Second Life may end up being the metaverse, after everybody else fails.
It's one of the very few systems with a large, continuous world, one
about the size of greater Los Angeles.
Facebook failed to deliver much, the NFT guys delivered even less, and
the people who announced and didn't ship probably never will.

Cloud is a no brainer when you’re in growth mode. In that scenario, you’re always wasting incremental money in capacity by swinging from feast to famine.

For the parts of your business that are steady state, cloud can be dumb, if you care about spend. At any significant scale you can trade flexibility for control and reduce cost. The other benefit is capex vs opex and how that affects your taxes - cloud makes it easier to shift to a pure opex model, but it’s not an exclusive ability.

It depends on you however. It’s almost always a good deal to buy Office 365 or Google. If you have a heavy cyclical business, it’s probably smart to rent vs buy compute. Pay AWS October-December and turn everything off in January.

At the end of the day, any CTO who has religious beliefs about this stuff is an idiot. Execution and cash drive these decisions.
Came here to suggest this - I'd have first run the numbers if running on a desirable cost IaaS to see if that was a comfortable middleground. It still amounts to self hosting everything yourself, except for compute, networking, storage - the basics (which are deceptively difficult when you account for secure access). And you get nice APIs to automate with still. Don't get me wrong, it might end up being more expensive at a threshold still, but do you really want to do your own... everything? Load balancing, DNS? What a total waste.

That said, some hardware companies have APIs to do most of that stuff - a little human runs out to fulfill your request if need be in some cases I think. Still like... much to worry about.
I don't have a stake in it (don't barely use Docker), and don't know all the details of what happened or who it affects how (I was, fruitlessly, hoping to get them when I clicked on this piece), and this still reads like a piece by someone who is friends with executives at Docker and set out to defend them.

His basic point seems to be that this decision wasn't about Docker's revenue, because it's effect would only be a "rounding error on [their] income statement."

If the cancellation of free teams plan isn't expected to have any non-trivial effect on their income statement... doesn't it just make them look even less competent for taking on so much bad PR for... what? Why _did_ they do it? OP says everyone knows taking away free things makes people really mad, that's no surprise. So if not for affects on income statement, then... what?

The OP argument is... because they thought the plan wasn't serving users well? I mean, I guess.... but the users would seem to disagree? And the OP doesn't really specify what about it wasn't "serving users well", just that Docker execs said so.

At any rate, the way a company behaves if it wants to look like it's in a stable position, and making sober careful decisions about long-term directions -- especially if they want customers to believe they are not about income but about serving users well -- would be having a much longer deprecation period than 30 days. Perhaps ending creation of new accounts in the deprecated category, but allowing existing accounts for a year maybe.
It might be harder to detect if you open it as a separate window instead of docking it to the bottom/side of the window.
I really wish people would stop writing articles about how bad Horizon Worlds is. There are so many better and more popular VR experiences out there.
Interesting potential. I could see the use for sidebar conversations and not looking embarrassed raising a hand and asking a dumb question. Or just stopping the flow of the lesson.

Out of curiosity, for this

> Experts of distribute system couldn't design a simple stateful system or articulate any distributed algorithm.

What do you picture as an acceptable answer? Leader election via broadcast? Simple link-state routing? Something more complex?

It almost sounds like part of the problem is convincing competent people that the bar is lower than they perceive it to be.
Not when you're working at a company that wants a specific design. Tailwind and CSS-in-JS have their own issues.
> Why? Isn't economic activity a very good proxy for normal human life, good living standards, and the capacity to adapt to any conceivable challenges?

It's not a bad proxy, but it surely is not as good as actual excess death as proxy for "normal human life, good living standards and the capacity to adapt". Economic activity is means to those ends; excess death is a measurement of how far we can attain them.
Its all about interest rates, the rest is irrelevant. ChatGPT is very hyped.

Also, you are not competing with new talent, unless you are entry level.

My assumption is that by next summer, interest rate will go back down to 1.5% (the long term growth based on demographic) and than you will see tech rise again (as it is still the only growth story around).
That is not true. I learned linear algebra on the job as it became required. Just like everything else I’ve needed to learn.

This whole “gaps” argument is just people who’ve bought into a system. People coming out of uni have “gaps” as well just different gaps… gaps rich kids have so it’s ok with Google.

As someone living in Portland, I'll add to this that there's a general sense here that Street Response does a great job at handling these issues in a way that's both humane and efficient, while at the same time pretty much the entire city would agree that the police here have been intentionally both slow and unhelpful for years.

I think the biggest takeaway here is that having smaller organizations focused around specific areas, and that have legal intervention power but aren't inherently organized around violence, can help with public issues in statistically significant ways, and do it for cheap. PSR's budget is $12.6 million/year, compared to Portland police getting $249 million in 2023... and yet PSR by itself has reduced police dispatches by 3.2%, reduced fire department dispatches by 3.2%, dramatically cut down on the number of people taken to the hospital as a result of calls, and gets wildly positive reviews from both the general public and the people they respond to, who consider them extremely trustworthy compared to the police.
