I live in Amsterdam (800k), not in the center, but within 2 km walk I have half a dozen supermarkets, untold numbers of restaurants, at least 2 hardware stores, several bakeries, pharmacists, half a dozen primary schools, a secondary (high) school.

In the village I grew up in (then 40k, now 100k), every neighbourhood had a shopping mall with one or two supermarkets, a Chinese restaurant, a few other shops, surrounded by 3 primary schools (one public, one protestant, one catholic). The same everywhere. Don't expect any bars, though. Or restaurants other than Chinese. I believe the town had one disco that served several neighbouring towns as well.
Start with Common Crawl and go from there.
Is there a tool that allows to do this within a text editor (for instance VS Code). Using selection instead of copy pasting. Having the LLM store its output directly within local files. Maybe giving it access to a shell to run the tests on its own ?
6 figures EUR is bordering on crazy money for Eastern Balkans, which are in the EU, let alone Western Balkans.

For reference, in Bosnia and Herzegovina, the median salary for a software engineer is 3650 BAM (1867 EUR at today's rate), per month, making a yearly 43800 BAM / 22404 EUR, and that's gross, before taxes and stuff. 6 figures EUR, even assuming low 6 figures like 300k, is the equivalent of more than 13 yearly salaries, and is of course untaxed, so even more with that. One can comfortably retire with 300k EUR in Bosnia.
This is a fundamental flaw with the whole "atomic deploy" model. The web is a distributed system and you can't just pretend that it isn't.

In this case it is possible that Netlify could have avoided the issue where the new HTML loads the old asset but this will just make the problem where the old HTML gets a 404 because the new asset has been swapped worse.

At the end of the day hashed assets is a great idea but you need to keep multiple versions around.
> If consumers don't purchase the products produced by the capitalist factories then the system would come to a standstill.

thats interesting... so you are saying that it is capitalism itself presupposes that consumers exist, and without it you can't have capitalism...?

it kind of makes one ask which came first...
That may be a much easier question to answer than discovery.

How do you discover relevant new domains?
Yes, but this lowers the bar significantly.
Twitter Ads API access is paused
Twitter is not granting access to its Ads API which is supposed to be on a free access tier for more than 2 months now. It might be getting shut down. Anyone able to get information from them?
No, what I’m sure the poster means is to stop continuing this madness.
I doubt it, most people I know rarely use laptops except for work related purposes... keep in mind we are talking about people not in tech (yes I know hard to imagine that is most people on the planet)

If you look at traffic stats by OS, remember they don't show that most traffic comes disproportionately from a minority of tech users and bots.
15 years ago Steve Jobs convinced the world why physical keyboard is a bad idea and rightly so. Of course there are trade offs but for me having no keyboard means more screen real estate which wins over everything.

(I suppose they will be both "all upside" and "all downside". Does not work.)
Rather surprising to see Tyler Cowen making an anti-capitalist argument: AI is after all just a form of fixed capital, in the same way that a machine tool is.

The "unowned" argument is obviously not something that should be given the time of day, since valuable capital assets that require energy inputs are always going to have an owner, but it might raise more serious jurisdiction questions as to what law applies to an AI and content put out by AI.
Arguments against:

- Sand/Dirt

- Excess Heat

- Transmission losses

- Political instability

- Geopolitics (Algeria, other issues..)

Arguments for:

- Gets around NIMBY

- ???

Panels need to be clean and cool (25c) to work optimally. Preferably close to where the energy is consumed.

Incidentally the interiors of many sunny EU countries like Spain are depopulated..
Yes. I would rather write the code myself too. But it's a good idea to use it to explore solutions or alternate implementations
reading multiple lines of what would amount to a single scan/find/map/reduce is still a pain in the ass though
>>In windows XP, microsoft learned their users accepted some abuse,e.g locked theme engine, plastic default theme

>No idea what you are talking about, what do you mean?

It turns out to be quite hard to find links about this bygone era, even if everyone screamed bloody murder at the time. I found these:

Third party themes, a feature loved by win98 users, are forbidden by microsoft in XP.

https://www.theregister.com/2001/02/16/compatibility_woes_de...

The Luna theme was called fisher price, not plastic, in the complaints - Got confused by KDE I guess. I presume it tried to make computers more playfull and less work. But people felt like Microsoft treated them like toddlers. Not everybody realized it could be disabled.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP_visual_styles

DRM. Can't even find anything relevant anymore. XP was the first MS consumer OS to implement and require it. There was also the required activation, and the digital signing of system components.

All of these represent a deep change of how Microsoft viewed their customers. Before, the user was allowed to do with his computer what he or she wanted, even if the machine got wrecked in the process. Users were assumed to be responsible agents, and protection against malware or legal usage was their responsibilty.

Starting with XP, Microsoft decided it knew better than the user, and needed to limit user activities with cryptographic measures. The PC should protect microsoft, content owners and end users against the incompetency or malice of the owner, even against their wishes. There were sometimes good reasons, e.g. theming allowed injection of malware into anything. But the final decision of what was allowed or not was from now on made by microsoft, not the owner.

Yeah let's not bicker and argue about who killed who here :)
Thanks will set me a reminder
Bit of a weird counter-argument:

Just make friends wherever you live. Everywhere my wife and I have moved, we’ve just intentionally done things to meet people in our neighborhood. (I.e. Going for lots of walks in the evenings, attending community events, etc)

We always manage to make a few good friends that we organically hang out with the way the author describes.

I think living communally is cool, and if you can get that worked out, all the more power to you. But it’s very difficult to do for the most part due to the societal norms that dictate how most live their lives.
Umm because medicine is supposed to be about helping other people? Why would people spend billions of dollars trying to help others work through a natural disaster?

To me that's one of the worst things about modern pharmaceutical companies, they care more about making money than actually helping people.
It's basically seeded with my personal bookmark list. Like a few dozen links.

Not exactly this, but close enough: https://memex.marginalia.nu/links/bookmarks.gmi

I've changed the crawler design a couple of times, but the principle for growing the set of sites to be crawled is to look for sites that are (in some sense) adjacent to domains that were found to be good.
Fake Abstract
That population is shrinking. Having worked in very large (investment) Banks, other parts of the finance sector, the move is generally to divest from thick clients to web. The whole COVID situation pushed this along even faster with the reliance on diverse VDI solutions, which don't necessarily play very well with crummy in house thick client apps.
You can absolutely build these in C:S and I've seen them as downloadable assets.
Sure, there's plenty of reasons not to build nuclear. Firstly, it's not cheap compared to modern solar and that trend is likely to continue. Secondly, it's not a responsive source of electricity - so you can't modulate the output easily. Thirdly, it takes a long time to bring on line, especially the more modern reactors have been prone to massive delays with an EPR reactor in Finland being over a decade late and Hinkley Point C in the UK, and Flamanville in France both being massively late, massively over budget and still unfinished. Fourthly, as we found last year, during heat waves rivers can run dry causing a shortage of water to cool the plants forcing them to go offline.

I'm not saying there's no benefit to Nuclear, there definitely is, and it should be part of the mix, but it's not a replacement for a decent investment in Solar.
Thanks a lot for the link, clear and helps me to prepare

Adding extra random characters to the end of the passphrase requires effort from the user, key derivation only requires them to wait.

Ideally, one should use a strong passphrase with strong key derivation parameters.

Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri "Cybernetic" government type?

Not a particularly useful line of inquiry unless you're willing to get full political and legal realist with a dash of Mao, and ask: how is the cybernetic government kept in power? Who's pulling its strings?
That is more or less right of course.

It's usually not easy to change class though and certain indicators like speech patterns are difficult to get rid of.
People discriminate based on whatever they can discern.

My point is, class and caste are both fundamentally the same as they are both rooted in culturally accepted/tolerated discrimination and prejudice.

Class isn't fundamentally better than caste.
I used openWRT a few months ago on my LinkSys WRT3200ACM, I was pretty motivated with the stuff I could do (VPN, block ads etc). Unfortunately, I had to go back to stock firmware because Wifi performance and issues connecting certain devices (vacuum robot). It was sad to have to give up on it.

Edit: typos.
What changed in early 1970s is the energy crisis. Economic growth before 1973 was about finding new ways to burn more and more fossil fuels to make stuff: US GDP increased 2.1x between 1953 and 1973 while final energy consumption increased 2.01x, barely any improvement in energy efficiency (4.5% in 20 years).

Between 2001 and 2021, GDP indeed grew less, by only 46.5%, but energy consumption grew by only 1.8%, resulting in 44% growth in energy efficiency.

Same trend is the case worldwide. Progress is slow because we have moved from extensive to intensive economy, learning how to do more with less.
Over the last 100 years those suburbs have added all of your list, plus parks (which were not common 100 years ago), internet, cable tv, phone.

The biggest problem I had with the keyboard on mine was the top row being so close to the display, I think?

Then there was the stylus issue, where it seemed to be permanently incapable of reliable calibration. So much for mobile digital sketching.

I did some web dev work on the 810 while traveling, but quickly realized that my MSI Wind was like a speed demon in comparison. So it was more of a media player, clock, alarm, and ebook reader but it did those really well.

I'm surprised that it is a fuss to get going! Installing Linux with a full basic suite of applications takes around half an hour.

Making this bit mor concrete: luks1 uses pbkdf2 with sha1 and minimum iteration count of 1000 as far as I can tell. Looking at random hashcat benchmark for rtx 4090, the closest thing is about 20MH/s. If we assume attacker spends a month with 1000 gpus, they will have bruteforced 20e6×86400×30×1000 combinations. Log2 of that rounds up to 56 bits.

A better observation than “maybe they’re scared to drive or have a good reason for getting a very large vehicle” would be: why does society force people who don’t want to or who are scared to drive into the drivers seat of a vehicle in order to participate in society?
Yes.

It's in part a measure to limit the scope of the project (the entire thing runs off a single PC), but it's also hard to build a good language model for a language you don't speak, and I only speak English and Swedish. But if the project grows, gets more hardware, and contributors that speak other languages, then maybe this will change in the future.
Hot. As a bonus, Europe can always punish them by taking cold showers if they misbehave.
Oh, I loved that phone. The phone was bulky, but it never seemed like too much in the pocket. And there's something to be said for the satisfying click as you flipped open the phone.
I love phones with keyboards, I've been using a terminal style launcher (https://github.com/fAndreuzzi/TUI-ConsoleLauncher) for almost 6 years now, but I really can't get behind the Unihertz devices.
The components and the build quality are just so weak compared to the Blackberry Key 1 and 2.. That trend seems to hold true for the non-keyboard Unihertz devices too.
Sadly, the Key1&2 are a little slow and don't get updates, so i am back using touch screens again.
I mean, the blackberry was far better than the iPhone at email at the time. It wasn’t even close. Obviously the iPhones versatility won.
Yeah, my youngest learned to read between two and three. I thought that she had memorized books, but she could read me brand new ones which she had never seen before.

She struggled with early education because she didn't like being forced to do things. Every kid is different, I suppose.
What you’re sharing looks interesting, but how you’re sharing could be improved. You keep mentioning how a link “is really cool” or you “really liked it” instead of explaining what it is.

It’s your curation newsletter, so it’s implicit that whatever you’re sharing you found to be interesting. There’s no need to keep repeating it, especially not at the expense of context. Give us an idea of what a project is without making us click it. The brevity is a feature but it’s being wasted on a lack of information.

Finally, there should always be a link to a source, such as where to buy the Townscaper game or where you’ve learned about the Harry Potter series. Ideally to a website which isn’t filled with ads and dark patterns.

Please take all that as constructive criticism. You’re just starting out and seem to be on an interesting path, I’d like to see the newsletter become better.
I think it depends on the usage is tags, and how important the tagging system actually is, because there's a tagging system in wide use that allows for aliases. That system is reactj on Slack messages. For those outside the slack ecosystem, that feature allows you to an emoji to a message, even or especially if you're not the author. Thing is, as tiny pictures, people remember what they remember about the emoji, and people often remember an alias and may not even know the offical name. Slack further allows customization by letting users add their own reactj imbuing each slack workspace with its own personality.

If someone wants to type in dumbbell and someone wants to type in weight, and it goes to the same tiny picture, is that really so broken?
In Netherland it traditionally means the place has city rights. But Den Haag (The Hague) never had city rights (being the seat of the count of Holland), so despite being 500k large, it's technically not a city. Though in all other aspects it really is. A much younger city, Almere (200k+), a fairly new suburb of Amsterdam but now the 5th largest city in the country, is far too young for such city rights. But we also have "cities" that have only a few hundred inhabitants.

The province of Friesland famously has 11 cities, but many of those are tiny, and it doesn't include several of the largest towns that are not technically cities.
I remember reading somewhere that Google used dmoz (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMOZ) as seed page for their crawler. Not sure if it's true though...
The added rules were just memorize the one correct way to spell. Previously it's was phonetic, and everyone used different spellings. Of course it looks less phonetic if you are unaware of how phonics change. (U and V switched roles as one example)
That's what I did and this was the reply: "For now, we are gradually providing the community license to existing applicants, so currently we cannot say how soon we start giving the x86 license to new users. Still, we recommend you to wait until the new form is available and apply for a personal license."
I have been tempted to look into this, I'll admit. I remember when I used to do Sunday youth group every week as a kid. If I could find a local one that just had a regular board game night or something I'd probably be down to give it a try.
As long as the project is actively trying to mislead people with a incorrect project name, I don't see it as them doing the right thing.

There is a chance I cannot compute (not a specialist) that the long drought wave in Europe - meaning, the lack of certainty of the reliable flow of rivers - may impose extra burden on the selection of eligible fitting places.
> it's nearly impossible to find a moment of quiet.

Wild. My experience has been if you live in the city long enough you don't even notice the noise. I've lived downtown for 10+ years in different major cities. There's a building being built directly behind me right now and I hear them all day long and it doesn't even phase me anymore. I'm also on a major drag where people drink all week long and walk around shouting at each other.

I kind of like it over the creepiness of being in a quiet empty house with nobody nearby..

I notice gunshots for sure but haven't heard many (any?) of those in Denver vs Dallas.
I work hard not to run into people. So far, I've had a 100% success rate. I can't say as much for the people around me, so "safer for the occupants" is a strong selling point.

I use Linux (usually Ubuntu or a derivative), macOS and Windows 11 regularly. To me they all “suck”. They all have shortcomings, and my constant switching between them only proves that there isn’t a clear winner. I can think of at least two “dumb” things with each that are easy to address but for whatever reason…. Aren’t.

I will say desktop Linux has been the worst experience for me, and it’s been that way since 2010 when I first installed a desktop Linux distro and tried to use it as my daily. BUT it’s not much worse than macOS or Windows for bugs.
A useful approach, but this is a tiny green field project. I'm not so sure it would work in a large existing proprietary system, where you shouldn't describe too much of the "NDA protected context"...
We are not dealing with NIMBY. NIMBY at least allowed the concept of owning backyards...
In all fairness, the closer to the equator you are the more efficient it is (less atmosphere, shallower angle, more regular day/night cycle).

And it's not so much "NIMBY" as a genuine land cost issue. We could do well to expand rooftop solar on large buildings, though.
That assumes the TPM is willing to unseal the drive, so you can use a probe to capture the key as it sends it. Microsoft recommend using TPM+PIN which prevents this as the TPM won't release the key unless you provide the PIN. The PIN can be fairly weak as the TPM prevents brute force.

I'm sure there are still vulnerabilities, but this is the method that governments themselves use for their devices, at least in UK.

Problem is that in practice they will be mismanaged by some senile politicians and end up in the pockets of a few well-connected individuals.

I'm all in for fair taxation to provide a good safety net for people, but we first need to ensure those taxes are actually being used efficiently and not as politicians' friends slush funds or cash cows for consultancy companies.
Sure, but all methods teach kids to read. Science of education should include effectiveness. Things such as how well they comprehend, how fast they read, what disabilities they have... note that the above list logically should be in conflict and society should debate the best method bases on the different measures to find good compromises.
