> The industry does not want you programming or creating, the industry wants you to be consuming

For this to be true, logically the tools to create smartphone programs would be fiercely protected and only available to the chosen few and smartphone OS developers would never in a million years promote learning how to program on their devices.

From my end it looks like the opposite of all of that is happening.

I went to a school in "THE GOLDEN AGE" of 8-bit micros and I was the only one out of 1,100 who used the single room of Apple IIs to type in BASIC programs.

My daughters went to a school that has classes on programming, including Android development.

Turbo Pascal used to be so expensive I couldn't afford it.

Android studio is $0.00 and the (free) resources for development that apple and google openly distribute make many of my college classes look pathetic.
Not doomed in the least. I self-host vaultwarden (and many other services) on my home network and access them from mobile devices (web and/or bitwarden app) using wireguard.
No tool or paradigm will solve the problem of working for morons.

Yeah but... for your job? I'm sure we all do those side projects, but hard to imagine being able to do that on a complex multiple-member team project

Thanks for those links; I didn't realize that clarified butter came in with such a high smoke point.

I usually use a mixture of (unclarified) butter and EVOO for frying steaks; tonight I shall try just clarified butter (with flavourings - thyme and garlic). It makes sense; and maybe I'll get a decent pan-sauce this time.
> but as we've seen with Stadia, it's just not quite there yet.

.... if you are using Stadia as an example of the capabilities of this technology, it is a mistake. Stadia was always the least capable of all the game streaming services.

As someone who games exclusively on the cloud, including competitive online multi-player games, using services like ShadowPC, GeForce Now, and XCloud - I contend it is quite closer than you think
Why does every one of these example use pinecone when that costs money and Faiss[0] is free? If you’re going to let something run a bunch of fee-per-use API calls on its own, why double up on getting charged?

Lets hope this is all the ammunition needed for the MEPs to kill this thing for good. At least EPRS is doing its job on this matter, contrary to the Commission.
I agree with Scholastic. As much as I am glad that Russians such as myself are not treated any differently in US today, racism was not the most direct cause of Japanese internment, Japan attacking US was. German and Italian Americans were also affected by EO 9066. It's fair to say that racism was one factor that contributed to meager public pushback and disproportionate practical impact on Japanese Americans.

Claims that immigration enforcement, police shootings, voter ID laws or food deserts are the same as Japanese internment are unsubstantiated fabrications. Food deserts are part supply and demand due to unhealthy local tastes, part impracticality of running full supermarkets in high crime neighborhoods, part residents lacking time and money for cooking and part agricultural subsidies distorting prices. These issues are worth talking about, but it's not like anyone set out to make people obese based on race.

All in all, I want my children to be taught based on facts and sound analysis, not words of people carrying a hammer and determined to see everything as a nail. If adults want to read other kinds of books or buy it for their own children, sure.
Are you serious? I didn't have full-time jobs until after college but I absolutely had various part-time things on summer holidays, vacations, and in college.

It is pretty powerful for something that is highly constrained to a few select operations.

It’s not full out programming but it is a good entry way once you are done with scratch.
Given the use case for this drone (medium-high budget media production) it's extremely unlikely that a person is going to be flying this drone without a spotter. Not having support for their own FPV googles on a $17,000 drone is kind of disappointing.
There is a whole process for it in many states that I know of (e.g., https://www.dmv.virginia.gov/drivers/id/child_id.html).
I really love how young people don't give a damn about old tropes.

Like CLASSIFIED or something. Dude, secrets will get leaked. Stamping red capital letters on it, making up cringe words like treason that belong more in warhammer 40k than real world and punishing people by taking away their freedom for speaking won't change that.

Leaked secrets is really your fault for even having them.

If you can't ever have your thing in the open maybe you shouldn't be having it at all? No matter how many gray hairs you have and how nice your suit is.

Young are way more resilient towards narrative verbal bs that kept our generation and previous in line.
That’s not a “problem” with anti-cheat, it’s the entire point. It is a group of people who have chosen to give up their freedom to modify their games in exchange for the ability to play with other people who agree to the same.

It is okay for private clubs to have rules for the conduct of their consenting members.

FOSS is great for allowing individual freedom of software developers. It doesn’t provide functional solutions for all of the worlds problems, though.
This is the real meat. Anti-cheat malware is installed on everyone’s machine. Guilty until proven uninstalled.

this probably sunk him:

I agree that it is more effort than it should be.

My take on it, ideally we should be able to harden the system with the prompt alone. Without extra code, adapters or filtering. And be able to control the balance between reliability and intelligence. From the reliability of a few lines of Javascript to human level.
I wonder if that has something to do with the pH.
I'd love to be able to customize the algorithm. I'm curious what would happen if you placed various weights to optimize for shortest path AND most niche path (or however you'd describe this)

I think writing a React component using JSX counts as "hand-written" HTML and CSS. Definitely when you're writing the low-level components that other stuff is built on.
I just love the success Linus had with managing this gigantic project while not using means of SCRUM or any of the other fancy words and systems! Sure he might not always be the friendliest but I just can not imagine Linux being successful today if it followed any of today's modern software-dev-methodologies like scrum.

I just love my linux-workhorse-daily-driver :)
Thanks Linus and everyone else who had a hand in my awesome Linux desktop.
The review file does

We can debate whether these constitute conflict of interest.
It will typically return nil, but it’s worth noting that in some lisps nil is the same as the empty list (). Not quite the same as Option/None, but conceptually more similar than most other languages’ null types.
I dont think this is the correct characterization of burnout. Maybe burnout occurs on the conditions listed, but not all burnout is caused by it.

Burnout is just when you run out of burn. It's like getting sleepy. You run out of the thing keeping you from being sleepy. You gotta get more stuff to burn if you wanna burn it.
You wouldn't believe it, but there is actually a way to restrict what your child does without causing them trauma and harm. Parenting is the word for that, and it would be great if people could actually do more of it.

From personal experience, if you're trying to make a game that cares about its frame rate, do not ever use the DOM for anything, ever. It routinely takes several frames to layout a single absolutely positioned element.

I recommend the second option. Rasterize your font with stb_truetype to a bitmap, and draw quads yourself
I think ICs are already in all the major social media back-ends that a nation hosts. I think that allies (like Israel and the US) regularly trade access to circumvent laws preventing surveillance of own citizens. Meanwhile LEOs of all stripes are already in social media, through the front-door.

The former is abhorrent and should be a big scandal, but it won't be. Snowden showed that Americans simply don't care. Given that signal, why stop?

The latter is actually good, in general. LEOs doing actual police work, joining groups that might be extremist...that's the online equivalent of undercover work, and I think it's good when it's human work.

So, basically I agree that proactive, general IC infiltration of back-ends is wrong, but I think its already happening and won't stop without change of sentiment. LEOs can and should do more human investigation, join groups, get involved, see what they are about - and then leave them alone if they aren't a physical threat. Obviously this can be super problematic (e.g. the FBI vs MLK) but the only alternative is to just sit there and wait for an attack. That's no bueno, either.

21-year-old males are notoriously immature. Cue a college party montage. There's a reason they pay more for car insurance until they're 25. Something about the prefrontal cortex.

I believe Chelsea Manning was 23 when she leaked intel?

I'd actually argue this is why the military wants recruits in the sweet spot when they're legally adults, but haven't fully developed their decision making. You just don't give them sensitive intel. You give them a gun and a CO.
I think your obvious answer is wrong. The fact is that modern smartphones are walled gardens with very large, powerful gatekeepers who want to protect their duopoly. The original impetus behind locking down the operating systems on smartphones was security but it evolved into a perfect way to ensure control over their market. There are no generic PC clones in the cellphone market, only small hobbyist or niche products that barely work. A+G encourage programming for their OSs only in so far as the output of such an activity can be sold on their app stores where they can take their cut and still retain absolute control over what gets installed.

In regards to plugins, someone has to write them. Even if the people writing those plugins use LLM tools to assist them they still need to know how to put software together and how to manage all of the services that those APIs talk to and how to scale their infrastructure along with user growth.
Age is not a determination for what level of access someone is given. It's not technically difficult to take a picture with a smartphone even given that smartphones are not allowed in SECRET and TOP SECRET areas. Multi-function devices (ex: printer/scanner/fax combo) still exist.

What is humorous is the vast amount of comments surrounding this event on HN that have no idea how security clearances, compartmentalization of information, federal and military law work.

That's what I've seen.

1. Write unique content that targets specific keywords. Use something like semrush.

2. Have good semantic markup with fast loading pages.

3. Get backlinked from higher authority domains through partnerships or paid engagements.

That's it.

Pretty exciting!

What about optionally validating some columns with jsonschema? Perhaps using https://github.com/supabase/pg_jsonschema - is using other postgres extensions supported in FerretDB? (if not, maybe it's feasible to incorporate the code of pg_jsonschema in FerretDB?)
I don't like the lower left quadrant of that diagram, because it's not clear that it's not centered on the target. It would have been more clear if the cluster was smaller so it could be moved to not be centered on the target.

Accurate but imprecise means we can throw more and more shells down range and eventually hit the target. Inaccurate and imprecise means we may never hit the target. Inaccurate but precise also means we may never hit the target, but if we could introduce a second, different measurement that was accurate, we could compensate.

I hate how common it is when popular youtubers make their title something like about "debunking" but it's an hour long incoherent rant.

You’re looking for a green field industry where individuals and small teams can have outsized impact, barriers to entry are low, and the guard rails are down. AI has that potential if it escapes the arbiters of truth, morality, and entrenched corporate profits. That seems likely as computing and methodology improve. Biotech has high entry costs and will always move a bit slower due to human safety. AR/VR to me feels like the internet in the early 90’s, I know it will be a huge industry at some point in the future, but can’t really tell if that’s 10, 20, or 30 years in the future. Apple might manage kickstart it to some degree soon, but it won’t be the slam dunk the internet was, not in my lifetime at least.

I wouldn’t expect anything substantial for the mobile/desktop web pretty much ever. Too much money in the status quo for Apple/Google/Microsoft to risk transformational browser improvements.

I think about these frameworks as products. They are meant to solve specific problem for specific audience. I also think we need to start differentiating between different classes of developers. I think a good analogy is car mechanic vs mechanical engineer. when a car is made there will be a lot of need for mechanical engineering. Once it's on the road and needs to be fixed is when car mechanic comes into play. You need to decide whether you want to be mechanical engineering or a mechanic - skillet is very different.

Doogie Typer
Early PCs lacked two things that made smartphones a whole new ballgame: a network, and software. When the Altair 8800, IBM PC, Apple II, Commodore PET, and Tandy TRS-80 shipped (1975-1980), there was no way to communicate with other people, nor was there much software (nor was there convenient storage for it — cassette tapes and floppies were severely limiting and a major pain to use). If the machine didn't have a Basic interpreter, it was neither useful (little software), nor engaging to the hobbiest (no way to explore the machine).

By the time smartphones shipped, communication with others and availability of vast repos of apps were almost unlimited. Only a tiny fraction of owners ever thought about coding up their own apps or exploring the infrastructure of the device.

And of course the makers of smartphone OSes had no intention of opening up their sealed gardens so users could compete with their near-total control of the user experience — a lesson that Microsoft's domination of the PC's OS taught to all budding monopolists.
While cool, this hasn't seen a release since 2019, and GitHub hasn't seen any updates since February 2022.
Yep, this. How is Discord in any way the problem here? The problem is that they had gave unvetted personnel access to military secrets, not which chat software was being used.
> Streaming isn't a solution to that, the latency is unacceptable in shooters.

I avoid streaming for that reason, but it's not unthinkable to play shooters with high latency. For years in the late 90s we played Quake 1 with a 150ms ping and had a blast. If non-streamers were disallowed that might actually be a good platform for fair competition.
Isn’t that a problem that Linux only has crappy cross platform apps that are not as good as native apps?

Why would I run a Linux box as my daily driver instead of a my Mac that is real Unix, has a 16 hour battery life and I can get great polished native apps?
They'll wait a few years then send you to collections over the $600, plus $5000 in late fees.
It's going to run fine everywhere. It's going to work.

As a native app strategy I think it's fine. It's immaterial, if it works. But on the web, it is damage. It breaks all user agency, wrecks all extensions, breaks accessibility extensions, prevents scraping. It's a closed world, and the web doesn't deserve this native app mistreatment.

I wish there was a way to use Android APIs from a scripting environment in Android phone. I tried a bit during last semester, but didn't get anywhere due to lack of time. What I wrote was a beanshell environment which lets you evaluate statements like REPL. But since Android and Java bytecode is different, it can't even pass lambdas properly.
