Gaming now is much better than the early 2000s. There were some great games back then, but these days there is more quality and variety in every dimension and in nearly every genre (except RTS games which got split into MOBAs and factory games).

Just think about modern games like Elden Ring, BoTW, Overwatch, TLOU2, Immortality, Celeste and Hades, just to name some of the more popular yet interesting titles that came to mind.
The cooperation happened when both parties could only benefit through cooperation, and it required trust. The vaccines were snatched (in the beginning) and the Trump wanted to "take over" BioNTech to guarantee vaccine priority.

Anecdata: My wife was addicted to the story in God of War Ragnarok.

She walked through the living room during the opening cut scene and exclaimed "Is that Toby Ziegler ZEUS?"

She ended up hanging out in the living room crafting, reading, playing on her phone, or watching her own shows while I ran around smashing and killing, and then would pay attention whenever a cut scene happened.

Movies and games are not the same thing.

But blockbuster amusement park movies and AAA video games increasingly are.
This is something that probably differs in EU and the US.

No it’s not. Whatever moral judgement the government assigns to a crime is irrelevant to a company who is staring down the barrel of a lawsuit for being party to said crime.

In the end, all it would take is one case of a pimp accepting payment for his underaged prostitutes via this company for the payment processor to be sued into oblivion, so they made the rational decision to not open themselves to this risk any longer.

I definitely agree that in balance the EU has been greatly beneficial but let's not get overoptimistic...

> Parliament is elected directly

The institution is a joke with no real power compared to national parliaments. They don't get to appoint the government, can't propose legislation etc. basically they just rubber-stamp anything which is brought by the commission by them. Barely any anywhere takes the EU elections seriously.

> made of PMs of the member states government

PMs? National governments can appoint anyone they want and often use it as a way to reward their buddies with a very cushy job (with close to zero political accountability) for a few years. Or to get someone influential/popular/etc. but whom the government finds dangerous from the country for a few years.

The process for picking ("electing") a commission president is a bit different but perfectly illustrates my point. They just appointed the most incompetent high ranking politician they could find in Germany...

> unelected PM

Just like the head of government in every single non-presidential country in Europe (Germany, Netherlands, Italy, Sweden, Spain, Austria etc... (the only excpetion is France). Anyway be any objective metric this is more democratic than the EU government.

> and house of Lords.

I agree. But it's an anachronistic and a powerless institution. Basically a retirement program for retired influential politicians...

A lot of people enjoy games that are basically interactive movies. Hell, there's a whole market for people that want a game to progress all the way through while all they do is click the same button over and over again. Saying they have nothing in common is no different from trying to keep digital artists down because it is not “real art” like a painting or sculpture.

Unless you are a purist that only want completely analog movies and completely digital games then the creators and tools are already merged. Look at the direction of Unreal Engine for a great example and how movie producers are joining game studios.
Yes and no. Some dedicated individuals and groups will come together and try. And the power struggle within will bifurcate the effort, as all human collective efforts tend so have internal power struggles. Those losing in that power struggle will look to the deniers of the need for the collective effort and with luck manipulate that population to "join" them. ..and of course, as we play our political games, the clock runs out and a few might survive.
To clarify what I mean by war - in the world wars at some point large fractions of the world population and economy were united in purpose, even though the purpose was to blow each other up. I interpret the question to ask whether there could be the same unity of purpose towards a mutual goal.
I think the solution is midway: rent dedicated servers from hosting companies that handle the co-location, hardware failure and all hosting-specific issues.

So you run your own services on their hardware (as opposed to using cloud SaaS, where you rent both the hardware AND the service).

I have increasingly become disinterested in CGI-heavy movies.

Most of the writing talent for Hollywood has moved on to writing for TV. There's more money, more scope, and they can write things that don't need to be 'spectacular' enough to get people to pay $20 to see. They have enough scope to actually build plots and give characters interesting lives rather than the 2.5 hours a film affords them. TV shows are getting better at the same pace that films are getting worse.

Author of ripgrep here. I never saw it as a "rewrite": https://old.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/11updi0/introducing_r...

You might think of it as NIH, but I didn't at the time that I wrote it. Because I saw a gap in the ecosystem that wasn't being filled. grep didn't offer the UX of a tool like ag, and ag didn't degrade gracefully to behave like a grep. (And also wasn't as fast on single file search.) That gap is what motivated me to turn ripgrep from what it was (a test bed for Rust's regex crate) into what it is now.

There's a reason why you basically never see me criticizing people about "NIH." Because it's actually quite difficult to accurately cast that criticism. Saying things are NIH is like saying things are broken. It's terribly overused.

in their case, 'fair use' seems more fair - stuff like images, if it's a copyrighted work, are featured as a small resolution thumbnail. meanwhile, AI services (image generating ones) grab a high resolution copy off the internet (which could be a ding in itself, and also a ding for other "training data" collections which "only post links" (piratebay, anyone?), create a derivative (a model) off of that copy, and then create even more derivatives off of a model (which is an already legally questionable item in itself) in form of model output (which can be as high res as one wants). text based AI services also do some questionable sourcing of material, also create a derivative, a model, and then subsequent output. and the commercialization is more explicit, "this is a service/product/app, pay us for this product, pay us for compute, etc." all of these things steer AI services further and further away from "fair use".

AI services truly do not have a strong foothold in trying to pass their stuff as "fair use", let alone trying to argue that their "use" is "fairer" than, say, wikipedia's.
The TOS for the API says that you won't use it to train your model, if someone else uses it to write articles and then you train on those there is no problem.
Absolutely. I was being sarcastic. I'm not fond of this rabid incrementation that originated with Chrome.
Windows Active Desktop and ChromeOS have shown how "great" it happens to be.

Even WebOS has support for Qt based applications, and ChromeOS had to add support for Android and GNU/Linux containers to run alongside the Chrome stack.
> Literally every EU country has health insurance as a benefit

Well while private insurance is obviously available everywhere in some/many(?) countries employers only provide it for a very small proportion of workers.
To elaborate for people unfamiliar with these situations...

In many countries the work itself is legal, but you find such fun twists as:

"You have to operate using cash because banks won't work with you because its legal in Your City/State but not at a State/Federal/National level above that",

"You're not allowed to register as a business and subject to substantial tax penalties",

"Individuals are allowed to do it, but its illegal for a multiple people to organise and work together as a business",

"Your allowed to do it, but only inside your own property, as its illegal for rented commercial or residential property to knowingly provide you such a premises"

... Generally speaking its more common that you find its a case of "It's legal for you the human individual to get paid to have sex, but... not legal to X, Y, or Z" which is how for every step forward, people in this line of work continue to face persecution. Its also sadly one of the ways this the progress gets made, by wheeling and dealing in politics, so they get the legalising change done, but had to trade away any measures that protect worker rights, or changes to decriminalise working as a business together, or to operate a dedicated premises... there's usually one or more catches left over by all the compromise needed to get any movement on the core issue... and so people look at it and go "what's the problem, its legal isn't it?"... to which the response is "well yes... but..." ... And most people have already tuned out before they finish the word "but".
Get a job. Seriously.

Almost everything you listed is heavily regulated. Why shouldn’t crypto be regulated as well?
I disagree on the reduce demand part. Companies have no shortage of ideas and products they want to implement. Execution is the limiting factor right now. I fully expect programmer demand to remain constant at first and then increase as new classes of products are made possible because of AI.

BTW, this is what’s happened with every other programmer productivity increase. No company has responded with ‘cool, our product is done’ and instead has expanded what the product can do. Customers then expect more, and the cycle continues.
> You have absolutely no way to negotiate your base salary above the band which was already known when we created the position

I don't actually want to negotiate the base salary, but I want to know before hand if all the time invested in interviews and the risk taken when switching jobs is worth it for me.

> You should care about your total compensation anyway and neither cash bonus, nor equity is covered in the disclosure, although especially for senior positions, those are very substantial part of your compensation.

No, because equity and all the other benefits besides the base salary are most of the time at the company's whim - I might or not receive them and I'll have only the freedom to choose between options offered by the company, not real freedom.

a document-based blockchain would curb publishers hard. the CDL is sadly a lousy way to implement lending, as it doesn't offer reassurance that people borrowing documents aren't replicating them. everyone lost their minds making silly useless NFTs of shitty artwork, but did any of those "geniuses" in the dying publishing empire bother to implement any NFTs of their publications? no instead they bitched about libraries being the number one cause of their profit losses (which is an absolute LIE). the problem isn't lending books (in whatever medium) the problem is a lack of an effective brain trust in the upper echelons of industry to embrace tech and use it to innovate and prosper. there is no reason why books can't be woven into a blockchain, and then license the usage to libraries for lending. everyone wins!
Already with the blame!

My concern with using `key` for this is that it’s somewhat of a booby trap for future consumers of the component. It requires some kind of documentation that you need to hope they’ll read. TypeScript won’t help you. It’s not common enough that they’ll think to go looking for it. It’ll break silently and they won’t know until there’s a problem. Is the best practice to wrap a keyed-to-reset-state component in an unkeyed component and then exporting that? Seems like an odd pattern.
When you are in a field where no legitimate actor wants to do business with you, of course there will be crime and exploitation.

If I refuse to serve black customers because they are more likely to be criminals, I am going to get a well deserved anti-discrimination lawsuit. That's because we understand that discriminating against black people will only make the problem worse. But discriminating against sex workers is fine, and indeed, it makes the problem worse.

For other jobs, the government protects its workers. For example, by making sure workshops comply with safety regulations. For sex workers, the law essentially says "you can't open a workshop", which is all but helpful as it just put these "workshops" in the hands of criminals, and leave sex workers with no protection.

So the bug where the first voting sheet shown to a user was from the same 10% of the photos turned out to be a feature, serving as a CAPTCHA of sorts to weed out the bad actors from the good.

If memory serves, some CAPTCHA techniques include showing two numbers to transcribe, where one’s value is already known. If that number is transcribed incorrectly, then the other number’s result isn’t used, and the CAPTCHA fails. Perhaps a similar technique may have also helped here?

A gradual rise of temperature is far more likely. And yes, it will be every nation for themselves but the refugees from the equatorial regions will swarm the northern and southern regions. And that will likely happen in such quantities that the northern and southern nations will not be able to prevent it. Not to mention the element of "we must help everybody, even at the expense of ourselves" people who will assist the invasion of refugees.
"Efficiency" is total Utility produced with the available resources.

> People choosing free ice cream over expensive beer doesn't strike me as inefficient.

But it is!

With the total available resources we have two options:

All get beer. Or all get ice cream.

Total utility (value/happiness/whatever) is maximized when everyone gets beer.

When resources are unevenly distributed, ice cream is subsidized, and all get ice cream.

When resources are evenly distributed everyone can make the choice themselves, and they get beer.

Clearly "resources evenly distributed" had the better outcome.

Also, there are typically multiple processes. A panic stops only one process.
Given the news just this week about Reagan it's a little funny to cite him as a prophet of unity and our better nature. He did say some good stuff, but he also wasn't above exploiting a catastrophe for political gain. It's the person he used the catastrophe against, Jimmy Carter, who actually sacrificed in the name of unity and our better nature. Reagan pitched Carter out of office.
Bluetooth from an regulations point of view has the same power limits as wifi (it's in the same 2.4 Ghz ISM band). In practice Bluetooth devices are small which limits both antenna size and desired power consumption so they tend to operate at a shorter range. If one end is a car, which has none of these limits, and the other end is a phone with a reasonably well designed antenna, you can get decent range.
I examine a set of stories that are organized on three levels: 1) the entire story trajectory, 2) segments within the trajectory, and 3) sentences within individual segments. I conjecture that the probability distribution from which ChatGPT draws next tokens follows a hierarchy nested according to those three levels and that is encoded in the weights off ChatGPT's parameters. I arrived at this conjecture to account for the results of experiments in which ChatGPT is given a prompt containing a story along with instructions to create a new story based on that story but changing a key character: the protagonist or the antagonist. That one change then ripples through the rest of the story. The pattern of differences between the old and the new story indicates how ChatGPT maintains story coherence. The nature and extent of the differences between the original story and the new one depends roughly on the degree of difference between the key character and the one substituted for it. I conclude with a methodological coda: ChatGPT's behavior must be described and analyzed on three levels: 1) The experiments exhibit surface level behavior. 2) The conjecture is about a middle level that contains the nested hierarchy of probability distributions. 3) The transformer virtual machine is the bottom level.
I was thinking the same thing. Gonna be fun to hear about this on tomorrow’s WAN. Also, how is it even possible for something like this to happen is beyond me.
He’s becoming increasingly bizarre and hostile of late to the point where he was recently straight up describing how he wants racial segregation, quoth he:

> I would say, based on the current way things are going, the best advice I would give to white people is to get the hell away from black people, because there is no fixing this

So I suspect if he’s talking about global cooperation in the case of a catastrophe, he probably means a different and less idyllic sort divided on racial lines.
With a pandemic the problem generally arrives in your country from another one - there's a major "blame game". Same with climate change.

How would that work for deprecations and new API introductions? GNOME is built on top of glib/gobject/gtk and a host of other libraries which all have to be ABI-compatible in some way. And GNOME itself is used as a base platform for applications.

Having a predictable versioning scheme helps limit the number of releases for downstream application maintenance work. You can't expect applications to have the full git tree available at build or runtime to make some features conditionally available.
European here, sorry if I misunderstood, but I always thought the "free speech" protected by the first amendment only protects your right to e.g. voice your political opinion without being punished for your particular views, not your preferences in porn (or the distribution and even existence of it)? As an extreme counterexample the government banned CSAM and one couldn't weasel their way out of such a case by pleading first amendment, right?
Yeah, it is just an accessibility setting that needs to be turned on.

Why?
The IRS gives lots of detailed guidance [1] on how to file your taxes, including specifically for cryptocurrency [2]. The SEC has given very little guidance here, mostly just repeating their normal non-cryptocurrency guidance in a way that wouldn't be informative to a securities lawyer [3], and especially hasn't addressed the way their current rules are incompatible with crypto. That Etherium, for example, has existed for a decade and become as big as it is without the SEC deciding whether it's a security makes it very hard for anyone to plan.

(I don't own any crypto and haven't ever; generally anti-crypto.)
