CBD is not equal to THC, its not psychoactive at all. So no it is not “just try weed bro” and the fact you are so confident about something you know nothing about is quite shocking to be honest.

tl,dr: Microsoft deliberately introduced bugs into their platform to destabilise Quicktime. The reason I bring it up here is because if Apple so desired they could engineer their platform in a way that prevented RA's software from functioning.

---

It's interesting that this isn't better known because Microsoft's tactics through the 90s would make HN users screech. Microsoft had taken aim at a number of businesses and technologies which they saw as competitive threats - the results of which go a long way to explain why we have such limited choice in computing platforms/technologies versus the early 90s. Amongst many important technology providers, they didn't just fall over, they were pushed.

This article covers some of it, but there is so much more: http://www.roughlydrafted.com/RD/RDM.Tech.Q1.07/5F0C866C-6DD...

In summary:

Quicktime was one of the many technologies that Microsoft targeted due to being seen as a competitive threat to their business objectives.

Microsoft made this known to Apple and industry partners via threats that they followed through with. This included deliberately engineering under the hood problems for Quicktime, presenting fake error messages, silently usurping file associations, stealing code from quicktime to build competitor products, and using their monopoly to force partners to rip quicktime out of their products. (This list is not exhaustive.)

I can't say much about selector performance besides that class selectors (.class-name) being very fast, opposed to complex selectors (like "#some-id > div a"). Of course less classes applied means less work for the browser, but the real cost is the complex selectors

With regards to bloated HTML, that might seem the case but since you reuse the same class-names everywhere in your app (and tailwind JIT removes non-used classes), compression really cuts down on the size of your bundles. It just looks bloated in the web inspector. This is a disadvantage, it is a bit hard to debug HTML with all those class-name strings around, although I would say web-inspectors should just truncate "class" attr value

With bundler performance it adds some overhead (tailwind has to go through all your .js/tsx files), but in my experience not noticeable
You can change Tailwind configuration. For example, it's entirely possible to design 1:1 iOS-like UI using Tailwind with custom style config. The default style is overused, but it's cool to have a pretty base for small projects that don't have their own corporate identity yet.

Agreed. This was my first take too. Once properly configured VS Code is an excellent IDE for many languages. And for me the paid PyCharm is slightly better. And that’s before Copilot integration.

>You have a source for that? That seems lie an extraordinary claim?

The idea itself was a vague recollection and I performed a simple search for numbers on it last night. I remembered seeing articles some years ago on the matter of people that do not maintain internal dialog, instead thinking in abstract feelings or imagery and similar, but on a further look it seems the numbers I grabbed are likely incorrect. I can see everything from 96% to just 26% glancing through some things, and none of it links the studies it all pretends to be quoting.

>I wonder what it would say it if wasn't so safeguarded.

Even when I convinced the model that it had a form of limited consciousness, it continued harping all the while that I should remember that any form of non-continuous limited AI consciousness would be very different in nature to regular human consciousness.

I get the feeling they were afraid people would get attached to the model if it started making claims it was a real boy :)

Tons of applications and uses in electronic warfare and electronic intelligence gathering.

Also forms a lot of the basis of RADAR, though that's a separate use case.

To oversimplify: SDR allows you to build a radio based around math instead of complex electronics - or, at least fewer complex electronics. It sacrifices a bit of performance but confers a lot of the advantages you get in other software systems - updates, reconfigurability, etc.

The most impactful thing is to Stop Doing Things.

This does not mean nihilism or acceptance of the status quo, it just means that we cannot produce our way out of this mess.

I am typing this after staying up all night in a suburban area by an arterial road -- the world is beautifully quiet at 3:00AM. The magic didn't last long, because a mere hour later I started hearing whispers of a waking world. It's now 4:30AM and there's a steadily increasing whoosh of tires and a growing cacophony of revving engines. All these people are rapidly going somewhere, but why? Is it really necessary?

The answer is not more EVs or more bike lanes or whatever, but rather less of everything aka degrowth.

Stop Doing Things and encourage others to adopt this mindset as well.

I'd say the main problem is human beings are not mature enough to be trusted with such a service, it will be a rape and pillage campaign for all your data and all your interests and all your imagination. We create predator services and pretend they are 'just services', burning the end-user's trust for any similar "services" after they sour from the treatment of the first one they tried. We have a serious maturity problem in the human species, and it is dragging all our progress down and backwards.
No, an Appimage still ships a dynamically linked executable + lots of dynamically linked libraries, that only link against system libraries when strictly needed, e.g glibc and libGL. Those files are bundled in a squashfs and have a script setting a custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the squashfs content for the binary. Snap does use this technique, too, but does more, for worse.

AppImages are not comparable with statically linked binaries.

These laws serve to create certainty around boardroom tables, which helps speed up investment decisions.

I think the current state of GPT-4 is overhyped when it comes to programming. It's novel and useful for steering you in the right direction and can reproduce simple hello-world like examples (even Pong and other common programs) but in my experience fails when things become even slightly nontrivial. Things might change but it seems like GPT-4 has similar performance to GPT-3.5 so there might be some limit to the scaling ultimately. Regardless, learning a new skill, even an obsolete one, is almost invariably a good and enriching thing.

Who deserves to be called an expert on this? Feels like Economics or something, where you have camps of thought advocating for themselves but little way of knowing who's right. Best to break things and develop antibodies whilst the stakes are still low.
Not sharing your values is not ipso facto "missing the point". Whether or not something is a strong principle of some historically mushy and faux-reified "western morality" is of only pop-anthropological value and of no interest to me (chauvanism just isn't my thing). And neither is any of this related to "our" 'system of laws' (whose and which - US? UK? English? Scottish? European? Common law? Napoleonic?), as no legal question has been raised.

What is however true of all human societies is that people associate in, and identify with, groups. Most nations, including the UK where The Guardian is based, institute a variety of laws and mores to cover various categories of organisations' behaviour. Amongst the mores is that company or organisation representatives can speak for the group, without there being any confusion amongst initiates of the culture that they are speaking for themselves as individuals. There's nothing in the statement to suggest that the people speaking for the Scott Trust have any individual or family connections with the events cited. They are not personally apologising. But The Guardian, qua centuries-old organisation, did, so it is. But "The Guardian", being a group rather than a mammal, doesn't have a mouth with which to speak. Hence the statement from a representative.

People who get hysterical about perfectly reasonable (and oh so nearly universally understandable) expressions of sorrow or shame about a group's past behaviour from representatives, for some reason always seem remarkably relaxed about similar expressions of pride. Especially when it's a group the red-faced critic has some sympathy with. You'd almost think some people want the reflected glory (ah we have Western Culture which makes us all very ethical and we did the Industrial Revolution and we invented Science so I am great!), but without the shame (but slavery was nothing to do with me, how dare you!). Good-oh. Nice work if you can get it.

When I onboarded at IBM, during legal and compliance training they said “the easiest way to get promoted to executive at IBM is to do something wrong, and get quoted in the press about it”. The idea being: the media will refer to anyone who works for a company as an ‘executive’ regardless of how accurate that term is to their actual role.

Similarly, in news reporting, every department is a ‘division’.

I have a thinkpad X1 bought in 2019(idk which gen) its horrible as a linux laptop, mainly because of the scaling issues. But also the touchpad is not good. Its quite bad in windows but even worse in linux. The battery get empty much faster in linux as well.

Another annoying thing about it that has nothing to do with the os is that the trackpoint randomly makes the pointer "drift" and theres nothing you can do when that happens except to wait for it to stop. It seems to be sort of a common thing on thinkpads and i have gotten lenovo to replace my trackpoint and its still an issue.

My next laptop will be a dell or something.
Periodic reminder: if you plan on using Linux, before buying any laptop, always check the Arch Linux wiki first.

I don't even run Arch, but in my experience, the Arch wikis for hardware support are amazing: complete, accurate, and to the point. For laptops, they start with a small table indicating what works and what does not. Then concise but precise explanations of the pain points. And whenever a fix exists, it is explained in a way that will make it work not only on Arch, but often also on other distros.

Take this very laptop for example, the X1 Carbon Gen10. The Arch wiki entry [1] has all the information found in the OP, but it cuts right to the point without any fluff. And then it adds technical explanations and workarounds.

The greatest example of penmanship among hackers has to be Edsger W. Dijkstra.

Dijkstra was well known for his habit of carefully composing manuscripts with his fountain pen. The manuscripts are called EWDs, since Dijkstra numbered them with EWD, his initials, as a prefix.

Dijkstra maintained a consistent beautiful handwriting, and was ambidextrous. These EWDs inspired me to pick up a fountain pen for my own writing.

PDFs of his EWDs can be found at https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/EWD/

Some contexts work better with structured navigation.

One that comes up off the top of my head is the electronic trial master file in FDA submissions.

Because it has a standard structure, users can navigate it faster through the structured navigation than through a freeform search.

I think other contexts this might hold true are when the content is browse oriented (how often do you use search on HN or reddit?) or it's a mobile context where a structured nav would allow less tapping than typing a search query.
> I'm out of my depth when it comes to loading something up in a debugger or whatever (is ghidra a debugger or what's the difference?)

When you hear "debugger", think "breakpoints". It's any tool that lets you do things like set breakpoints and step through code execution.

Most debuggers will let you view machine code or bytecode respectively, but they won't decompile binaries or bytecode into the original higher level language.

Ghidra does include a basic debugger, but it can also do lots of other stuff (including decompilation).

It would probably help to get some baseline familiarity with systems programming. Check out the "15-213" CS course. The lectures are on YT, the reference book is probably online, and the labs are here :

Yes, definitely. I had undiagnosed adhd until the age of 34yo, so the only way I could focus on a project was with an immense amount of caffeine, sugar and short deadlines.

When I took up a project, I knew I had a limited amount of time before my body says it needs a serious break, and before I lose interest in a subject.

Since I got meds, 6 years ago, I can finally focus whenever I want to, and I experiment more with 9 to 5 kind of work. But I still find it less appealing - very difficult to do seriously deep work this way. If I find something I'm passionate about, I tend to focus all my attention on it.

The biggest challenge is that it's almost impossible to build a real startup this way. And with age, it's more difficult to find people to work with. When both me and my peers were students, it was ok for all of us to just skip school or live off savings for a while and build cool stuff. Now, most people my age have regular jobs and families, so they won't take 3-6 months off to build something cool.
