It is by far the most comprehensive guide on using a YubiKey as a SmartCard for storing GPG keys. I used this a few years ago and it helped clear up any confusion I had about getting the most out of my Yubikey 5 NFC.

If I'd used that hammer every day for many years and it had finally given out? If re-attaching the head wasn't going to give as good result as buying a new hammer? Sure I would.

Yeah. Apple shouldn't have enabled that by default on older devices, but it can be turned off (Settings -> Siri & Search -> Photos).
Delta II only needed to achieve orbit and only 1 of the 4 fatal missions failed to achieve orbit.

Soyuz 11 - was a life support failure (A cabin vent valve construction defect caused it to open at service module separation)

Soyuz 1 - Parachute failed so again not something the Delta II had to deal with.

STS-107 Damage to tiles resulted in failure on reentry, but again no heat shields on the Delta II.

Of the 4 only STS-51-L failed during launch.

> We will solve the charging problem by running simple L2 240V AC wiring to plugs/poles on the street.

The problem will be most likely solved by letting a private company with a local near-monopoly on public charing install chargers in on-street parking and apartment car parks. This private company will then charge several times the market rate for the electricity to use the chargers, several times more than wealthier people are paying to charge their cars.
Pretty irritating that for the last week or so, when I search classical music on my iPhone, the first result was an empty playlist that told me there is a classical music app coming.

Great. I have an app for listening to music from Apple called Music. I don’t really want yet another app and the mental overhead that comes with it.

They showed that, at least for their tasks, their definition of the task was well-defined-enough for ChatGPT. That's exactly why the comparison is useful.

MTurk is often used in these tasks in place of more expensive human annotators (e.g. grad students), and this paper says that for their case, at least, ChatGPT worked better, in the sense that, given the exact same instructions, it gave answers closer to the more-expensive annotators. Using MTurk seriously often entails extra steps intended to verify motivation, e.g. adding a question that says "select option 7" to make sure the person isn't just making random choices, or gathering more answers for questions where there was disagreement between annotators. What these extra steps have in common is that they take both more time when designing the labeling process, and cost more money.

Mmm. Should it?

Agatha Christie stories have been rewritten a bit over the 100 years she has been published, most notably "Ten Little Indians", which was released in the US as "And Then There Were None", but was first published in 1939 with a different noun in the title which I will not provoke a response by using. I think they were still publishing it in the UK up until the 1970s under the original title!

This article, however, is trying to froth up the beetroot-faced "pint of carling and a filthy joke" Union-jack-t-shirt-wearing segment over "political correctness gone mad".

Bear in mind that this is the newspaper that was founded by Fascists for Fascists in the 1930s, and most recently had a headline on the front page saying we should be machine-gunning refugee boats to stop them landing in the UK.
> they'll enable engineers to become vastly more productive (10-100x)

Will that come along with a 10-100x pay increase?

Why should I care about being so much more productive, when it won't come with any pay increase (and will likely come with a pay decrease)?
You're shoe horning a great deal of breathless pearl clutching into something remarkably dull - standard capitalism fettling old lamps into shiny new lamps with a dash of guerilla marketing.

In the last two months there's been stories about Roald Dahl, Enid Blyton, a couple of others and now Agatha Christie.

Each time there's been outrage teased in the right wing press obsessed with culture wars, a flurry of free press via over hyped social media discussion, and then yet another edition release by publishers of "original" Ye Olde UnWoke OG editions . . .

Are you seeing a marketing pattern here?

It sounds good, but of course for "security" it might not be enough. 626f6d62 is alternating letters and digits, with never more than two letters in a row. And it spells "bomb" when converted from hex to ascii.

Hungary is pretty small. You can drive pretty much anywhere in the country from Budapest on a single charge. And there are charging stations all over the country as well. I've personally driven all over the country in an electric car with no issues... well, except a few times when I ended up off-roading in a tiny Volkswagen by mistake and almost getting stuck in the mud.
Not that hard. You will eat it before it gets bad, possibly before it gets cold. If you are having a burger at a restaurant you will eat it before the restaurant closes. I predict you will eat it in about 1 hour. Seeing your post was 19 hours ago I doubt you still have the burger in front of you.
> Surnames often don't mean anything.

That depends on where you're from. Often in the English-speaking world, they do.

To take the another commenter's example, "Smith" comes from a word meaning, roughly, "craftsperson", as in "blacksmith". The ancestor that the surname comes from was likely either a blacksmith, or some other type of crafter whose profession can be described as "smithing".

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/smith

Likewise, the surname "Wright" comes from a word with a similar meaning, as in "playwright", "wheelwright" or "cartwright".
My surname doesn't have any modern meaning, it's a middle age Slavic surname. It's pretty unique and only a few 100s people in the world have it. It's so wild to me that it got flagged by some kind of a list.
Right - the vast majority of C++ enhancements since 2017 (maybe 2014, or even 2011) arn't even targeting application developers - they are meant to support libraries.
> What benefit is there other than slightly better UX

The way people (like me) listen to classical music is different from the way they listen to other kinds of music. For example, I might want to listen to Beethoven's String Quartet No. 12. This has four movements, and I want the player to play from movement 1 through movement 4 once I touch the play button. This is very different from wanting to play (say) Price Tag by Jessie J which is one track.

Furthermore, the meta data standards for music do not work that well for classical music. It requires some thoughtful manipulation to present the meta data correctly for this genre. For example, if you search for Mozart's Don Giovanni on Apple Music, and you are looking for a particular track, you may see something like this:

"1. Mozart, Don Giovanni Act ....."
"2. Mozart, Don Giovanni Act ....."
"3. Mozart, Don Giovanni Act ....."

Now the "Track Title" meta data field for track 2 probably has something like this:

"2. Mozart, Don Giovanni Act 1: Notte e giorno faticar"

If the programmers of Apple Music had read the spec carefully, they would have learned that the part of the track title after the colon is the actual track title, so they should show that first.

There are other issues with the meta data, but I tried the Apple Classical music player last night, and it is good. Finally a music player that works for me, not against me.

Well put. As great is the current financial system, seeing legitimate people and companies left on the sidelines for basically no reason aside factored in cost of applying the current regulation efficiently is quite maddening.

Also well summarized by patio11 with [1]:

> The actual probative value of SARs varies wildly; at the top of the spectrum, they can include sufficient investigatory work and documentation, produced by the analyst at the financial institution, to lead to convictions for e.g. human trafficking.

> Across the financial industry, that SAR is wildly outnumbered by “Mohammed tried to do something, we didn’t let him, and when we told him that he became agitated.”

> An example from here in Japan: an immigrant attempted to wire the equivalent of $600 to his cousin in Africa. He was asked the purpose of the wire and said it was for a tuition payment. Bank staff asked for supporting documentation like e.g. a tuition statement or student ID card for the cousin. The customer refused to provide that documentation. The bank refused the wire. The customer accused the bank staff of racially profiling him and raised his voice.

> I was not a party to that transaction and, for clarity, it did not involve any employer or business partner of mine. I winced when reading a news report about it, because this is practically ripped from Compliance training. The customer is absolutely right and they are very likely getting a SAR filed on them.

"you linked to an article by james hansen then said you can't find what he is talking about because climatologists covered it up. james hansen is one of the most famous climate scientists ever having originally presented this to congress as a world crisis during his tenure at NASA."

I know, the article I linked to is on the NASA website. That's exactly what I'm saying - guys like Hansen were distressed by the lack of warming despite their predictions to the contrary and then changed the data to create it, mostly by cooling the past. It's visible when comparing graphs of the same time period from older and newer documents. That one is an older document. You seem to think there's a contradiction here but I don't see it.

Glaciers, how do they work? Dunno, let's ask the archaeologists who know that in the past it was massively warmer where glaciers are found today:

http://www.museumgolling.at/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/9_Sch...

Oaks (Quercus) at an altitude of 1,450 metres around 2,000 years ago also indicate a climate approximately 4 to 7 °C warmer than today.

But that was in the Roman era so it can't have been CO2 making that warmth. Also very important: 4-7 degrees hotter but no runaway climate self-destruction.

Then you go off on some jibber-jabber about conspiracy theories. That's what always happens when people can't accept the truth on this topic, they try to shoot the messenger. All you need for this outcome to occur is the mundane reality that without predictions of doom nobody would care about climatology. It doesn't matter if the researchers are American or European or Chinese. Their income and prestige depends on claiming that they (a) understand the climate and (b) know how to explain all changes and (c) that those changes are controllable with sufficiently big actions. Unfortunately none of that seems to be correct.

I honestly don't see how politeness factors into this (but I definitely think the maintainers were polite enough in this case).

The person who submitted this code went out on a limb and implemented something without talking to the maintainers first. That's completely fine. I'm sure they learned quite a bit by implementing it. That's a win by itself.

It's the getting upset that it didn't get integrated that I think is unreasonable. The maintainers donate their time to write and curate code to make progress on their vision of the software.

Submitting code like this (not talking beforehand) is like giving a friend who likes photography a camera without asking what they want. There's a chance they love it, but there's a good chance they wont. If you care about getting one outcome over another, you need to communicate beforehand.

"The homepages made purely in flash was realy annoying though."

Most of them, yes. Because they were "programmed" by people not good in programming or UX design. But flash enabled even newbs to build awesome stuff - and it had powertools for the pros. The workflow I had back then, I never found again in any other tool. So it has nothing to do with not wanting to learn something new - there still isn't something alike. And that is quite sad, despite the flaws of the flash player and adobe.

(oh. and flash was for free for students and also easy to pirate)

I’ve never understood why the push notification permission doesn’t require a click to activate. Many other intrusive things (e.g. playing a video) do. Google have even gone down a long winded path of disabling the prompt for sites that have low acceptances rates which seems like a very over complicated solution.

Allowing it on page load has totally soured users on what could be a really useful tool. Sometimes I absolutely would like to receive notifications from a service without having to install an entire native app for it. Unfortunately that’s counter to the way Apple have implemented web push, requiring a Home Screen install before you’re able to use it.

> after the Qt license issues were sorted out

Much as I'd agree that GTK has proven to not be the way (either), I don't see the "Qt license issues" as being "sorted out" at all.

It did look like it for a short while after Nokia bought Trolltech and made Qt available under LGPLv2.1, but that didn't last long: Shortly after, Microsoft managed to place their mole Stephen Elop onto the CEO seat of Nokia, and Elop methodically ruined Nokia in preparation for a Microsoft takeover and threw out Qt (which represented cross-platform, a concept Microsoft always saw as as a threat to their business model), replacing it with the ill-fated Windows Phone platform. Under Digia, and even more so once splitted out as QTCOM, The licensing focus of Qt has shifted from "make it more open so as to gain wide traction" (the strategy under Nokia) to "try to force devs into commercial licensing schemes and monetize to the max you can milk out of it", and it has been a sore downhill slide into a shitty situation.

The "Qt license issues" we have today aren't the same as way back then in the QPL days of early KDE-vs-Gnome forum wars, but they are at least as bad imho. A lot of developers who used to develop mainly with Qt (me included) have since jumped ship because of that and prefer to avoid Qt too now, though the sad reality is that while there are better alternatives depending on the project, there isn't really a good free cross-platform allround alternative for Qt either. I think there is really a big window of opportunity and gap to be filled by a new modern cross-platform UI toolkit.

Hey, thanks for commenting.

The API still a subset of the Airtable API for the moment to avoid requiring rewrites of existing integrations. I do plan to expand the API in the future to enable novel features.

Most of my research is in talking to other engineers using Airtable, admittedly none used Airtable as widely as we did at my last job.

I want to deliver the best possible experience for Airtable API integrations, and I believe pricing in the speculated range is necessary to sustain that focus. It's something I'm still thinking about.

Moving out of Airtable and replicating all of it's goodies is a tricky and expensive task, I'd like to help customers avoid that where possible, or delay it at the very least.
Remains to be seen. It is not clear that China has the rule of law that the world needs in a foreign currency. Even the US has been pushing their luck on this front but they are better than China.

Economically, demographics are insanely against China and it is not clear that immigration is a viable way for them to close that gap.

Finally, their unique political system has not been tested during a period of low growth. It is not clear they have the political stability to be a reserve currency. Again, the US has been pushing their luck.

My issue is that with productivity theres a big factor of "good data in good data out". If a system is too overdesigned it often gets underutilized. I used to have complicated setups for my "productivity" but honestly I've paired it down to one google sheets time tracker with a few fancy features like time predicting on projects but not much.. and google calendar. It wasn't until I reduced my tools that my productivity increases.

I worry that overanalyzing productivity will innevitably lead people to forget the 1 rule of "do less".
