So how is rewriting it in a safer language not trivial in this example?
How does this work with routing? Does each AP get its own IP address, or is there some special protocol for running the APs "transparently" as though the router had its own built-in wireless antennae?
When did apple ever have an original product idea? Granted, they frequently release very good products. But they're always products that were first released by other companies.

The Apple I and Apple II were not the first commercial microcomputers, but they were very good for their time. The Lisa and Mac were very, very good conceptual follow-ons to the Xerox Alto. The Newton was a very good alternative to the Tandy/Casio Zoomer. The LaserWriter was a very good alternative to the HP LaserJet. The MacTV and Pippin failed miserably, but I guess the MacTV predated most computer based media systems, so you got me there. The Xserv was not the first server, but it was quite well constructed. The iPod was not the first MP3 player, but it was a very good MP3 player if you could get it to work. The iPhone was not the first smart phone, but it did redefine the category. IBuds just sort of suck. Not sure why everyone goes gaga over them. Apparently they're releasing a VR headset that the fanbois will go nuts over and talk about how it's the world's first VR headset. Or AR headset. Or MR headset or "iReality" headset or whatever Apple decides they want to call it.

Apple NEVER releases original products. They ALWAYS follow the rest of the market, but they virtually ALWAYS follow the market with excellent products.

I'm also inclined to say "so what," but not because of some delusion that Apple invents only original products. But because they're going to wait and see if other companies can make AI work and how they can make a compelling, profitable product.

And that's okay.
> ... they're hopeful one day the ROC will peacefully join them if relations and trade are good enough.

The stupid shit that China pulled in Hong Kong just a few years ago has pretty much put a nail into the coffin of that hope any time soon.

All China had to do was keep to the "one country, two systems" approach in Hong Kong that had been working so well.

But they couldn't even manage to do that, instead violating the agreement they themselves negotiated.

So, it's pretty easy to see why the majority of Taiwanese want them fuck right off. ;)
What about an architect's salary? Does the firm who designs the building amortize the cost of that labor, while the purchaser of the building also amortizes the entire cost of the building?
How about EEs who design the hardware? Are they included?

Real time updates are basically free, db integration is easy and adaptable. The service-oriented architecture with hooks just feels like a very natural way to think about an application.

They recently pushed their long awaited v5 update, which adds a Koa transport alongside the historic express transport, and improves the "code reuse between client & server" story for schemas/models/types.
I have a gaming box too, but recently noticed that Minecraft is much faster on Linux, hence I installed Linux along. Still most of games are on windows, but this is old laptop and I don't have time to test them and move to Linux.

The extensibility and customizability of Emacs typically means that bad UX is user error. There is a barrier to entry, but if you don't want to go past that, it's no big deal. I'm not sure that's the editor's fault though.
It’s all bullshit either way.
Without meaning any offense to the OP, I think this is a pretty low bar for Emacs eye-candy... Nicolas Rougier's "Nano Emacs" [0], or his previous "Elegant Emacs" [1] are better examples. You can also get pretty far using variable-pitch mode for mixing fonts (for example in org-mode [2]).

"Language grammars" are the same as specifying what is valid and what is invalid. This is done using hierarchical class membership, roughly equal to mathematical sets or programming language types.

I would argue that this can attract users better than the additional formalism you can obtain through logic programming, because once you have determined the validity and class (roughly "set membership") of something, you can potentially generalize about it more easily and you have a clear cognitive boundary.

Speaking from experience, in practice, I often rigidly define one layer of a system and then implement algorithms less rigidly using a less formal approach. This seems standard across the industry. Think about UUIDs, network addresses, etc.

I believe this type of tradeoff is ultimately what killed logic programming. If you really want to do maths, do maths. If you want to define something, do so succinctly. And if you are here to implement an algorithm, use the right tool. Don't pretend the code will write itself. Logic programming always seemed to me a sort of allusion to mathematical inference that didn't transfer well to real world programming problems.

Just my opinion.
Anybody who looks will see the US university system has become bloated, dysfunctional, and exploitative. You can find a million articles like this detailing it. As long as universities get to be gatekeepers to a piece of paper that is required to get a white collar job and there is a lack of political will to fix universities nothing will change.
I wish Valve would try to build a desktop OS. They surely have the bankroll to do something like that.

In fact yes. But if some dev is treated badly by that website and they know about this, they can direct legislators to that site saying it's illegal. And in this case that website has problems
You know, this is pretty clearly the right answer. Software developer salaries are ordinary business expenses. There’s some alarming language in the section about deductibility of R&E expenses, but core business functions aren’t R&E.

Really perceptive comment.

Japan's Agriculture Ministry Uses ChatGPT for Administrative Work
> People forget how quickly Carter screwed up the economy.

The oil shock and stagflation began under Nixon/Ford, and stagflation itself was spurred by Nixonian policy. People seem to forget this quite often. Carter was only president during the last 3 years of the 70s.

Volcker was appointed by Carter and made things really bad for a brief time, but those 20% interest rates ended stagflation, leading to Volcker's reappointment by Reagan.

I’m not trying to be aggressive, but this is the kind of “just world hypothesis” reasoning you hear from people caught in layoffs.

Sometimes the people doing that kind of reasoning are hit next.

I’m not saying there’s no waste, but this is classic rationalizing.
IIRC, GPT-2 and 3 are somewhat like this, asking a question often results in it giving you more questions instead of an answer, unless you give. ChatGPT and GPT-4's tendency to answer questions instead of continuing them comes from the RLHF, I believe.

Powershell has plenty of warts and weird design choices, but hopefully once you immerse yourself in it you'll find it's actually fairly nice to work with. The "object pipeline" nature of it means that working with complex structured data is far easier than trying to mangle the same data as lines of text in a traditional shell.
Shall we reprise our arguments about this again for GP's benefit?

Nothing about DNSSEC precludes the addition of CT, and it will eventually happen.

DNSSEC w/ query name minimization means that any zone that wishes to MITM you has to potentially make the decision without first knowing what your target domain is, or even who you are (obviously this last depends on context), and the more indiscriminate they are in their MITM activities the more likely that they'll be caught. That's a big deal, and something WebPKI can't offer -- WebPKI only has CT to offer for mitigating the MITM power of CAs, and CT depends on people auditing the logs.
If the CTO and managers really as described fighting over this won't get him nowhere it will get him exactly one place and that's out on the street.

Often times not all decisions are clearly concisely explained in a way that lower level people can understand. One of the reasons that senior leadership sometimes goes with third-party software to pin integrations around is to lessen the reliance on in-house knowledge. This is often not directly stated but it is the goal of some people in senior leadership they trust external organizations that they can partner with more than they trust their local talent. There can be many many reasons for this and it's usually not because they don't believe their people are talented.

Oftentimes leadership will have great admiration for the technical talent of their people but they also realize that talented people are not slaves and can choose to leave at any point. They mitigate this risk by using external utilities from vendors. It's very common for the top talented people to push back against this because it feels as if it's an attack on their abilities when in reality it's mostly a risk mitigation scheme.

All companies do this as they grow and change and you either grow and change with it or you move on. The option of moving on is exactly why companies choose the strategy you're describing. So it is a bit of a self-perpetuating cycle but it is what it is.
Residential proxies are a completely solved problem, for companies that actually lose money to them (e.g. Ticketmaster, whose profit is maximized by blocking third-party scalpers so they can do the scalping themselves)

For companies that make money by having more MAUs, well, yeah, they're going to have a real "rough time" detecting inauthentic traffic
That page was indeed a masterpiece in visual communication.

Math and Music curriculum teachers and educators should spend time on making all topics approachable like this. It would be a great way to supplement learning by making it interactive. Instead of using iPads as glorified PDF readers.

Sadly the quality of e.g our Math Books (in Germany) is so low in many cases that I do not see this happening ever.

The healthcare system in the west is just plain stupid.

In asia you can walk into a clinic and see a doctor in 30m. Want to get a X-ray or mri etc at hospital? An hour?

Yet in NZ a friends sister has been waiting 4 months now to have her shoulder checked by a specialist.

It’s easier to fly to asia and see a doctor than it is to try see a doctor is a western country.

No one ever seems to explain how the companies are coordinating to suck up talent. Otherwise, there would be a free rider problem. Why not let Google suck it up instead?
It also seems like the MS approach would be very much against the "consent" concept of the GDPR.

Well, this new specific detail of the law should get everything in order. Ignoring the banner means refusing for tracking. This was already in gdpr but not directly stated. So, in near future, banners should disappear in the current form
Cambridge defines misleading as: "causing someone to believe something that is not true" - given all the information is present and correct, it would more accurately be defined as poorly formatted.

Now taking a screenshot of a graph, not defining the year, or providing any additional context, is misleading. Additional, as a Canadian who is well versed in the work of Mr Hopper, I'd go so far as to say he's being deliberately misleading.
China prioritizes CSP connection and dispatch in new rule
There's a saying in Japanese that precisely describes this situation: 鴨が葱を背負ってくる. The literal translation is "a duck approaches you with a leek on its back." It refers to good luck brought by someone waiting to be exploited. Paying money for a product that works against you is exactly this.

Hot take: We're nearing the peak size of corporations, and in 20 years the average corporation will be smaller, rather than larger. There's a simple reason. The reason Microsoft is doing stuff like this is because they're absolutely enormous. They have baseline costs in the tens of billions of dollars. You simply can't recoup that with individual product releases, where even a breakaway hit would cover a fraction of your costs for a single year. You need rent, and so they're rent seeking in every possible endeavor. And many other companies are in the exact same boat.

But both advertising and direct rent (e.g. pay us $10/month for your OS license) have theoretic limits. $10/month sounds awesome (from both a creator and consumer perspective) for a product that might have otherwise cost hundreds of dollars, until you get into the domain of a million companies doing the exact same thing. $10/month * n subscriptions becomes unviable at some point, and probably a relatively low point for the vast majority of people. It's kind of similar to what happened to Netflix. As more Netflix competitors emerged (and Netflix itself began to struggle), the cost to simply watch what you want skyrocketed, and consequently - so did 'piracy.'

And similarly with advertising. People can only physically watch so many ads. And for every advertised product, the value of advertising for a new company becomes relatively less. In other words if you're the only person advertising, in existence, everybody's going to know about you. If there are a million comparable products being advertised, then even a large advertising budget may yield negligible returns.

It's a tragedy of the commons, or more precisely - of the commoner.

As an SVP of Eng: Market dynamics and pay equity mostly force me to pay everyone the same. Not everyone gets paid the same but little disparity between people of high impact and low. Ie most companies total annual comp between people is a lot smaller than you’d think.

So the job of management is to weed out people who aren’t having as high as possible impact when convenient.

I don’t like it, but it’s often what’s going on

Milton was blind when he wrote Paradise Lost and left us a beautiful description at the start of Book 3:

Hail holy light, offspring of Heaven first-born,

Or of the Eternal Coeternal beam

May I express thee unblamed?

...but thou

Revisitest not these eyes, that roll in vain

To find thy piercing ray, and find no dawn;

So thick a drop serene hath quenched their Orbs,

Or dim suffusion veiled.

...as the wakeful Bird

Sings darkling, and in shadiest Covert hid

Tunes her nocturnal Note. Thus with the Year

Seasons return, but not to me returns

Day, or the sweet approach of Even or Morn,

Or sight of vernal bloom, or Summer's Rose,

Or flocks, or herds, or human face divine;

But cloud instead, and ever-during dark

Surrounds me, from the cheerful ways of men

Cut off, and for the Book of knowledge fair

Presented with a Universal blank

Of Nature's works to me expunged and razed,

And wisdom at one entrance quite shut out.

So much the rather thou Celestial light

Shine inward, and the mind through all her powers

Irradiate, there plant eyes, all mist from thence

Purge and disperse, that I may see and tell

Of things invisible to mortal sight.

Surely they make a ton from their cloud services. I wouldn't think they needed to make more money from Windows over and above the license fees. This is more likely revenue optimization.

They got off light. They probably made many times that much just by stirring up the conspiracy theory day after day. Also, the company is even more famous now. Everyone knows about it and every one of the fox personalities. It was a win for fox.

Funny how flimsy dominance is. In a few years, search quality has gone from top to average, then all of a sudden, it’s going into the “irrelevant” field.

Funny how good Microsoft is. Bitbucket is shit, GitLab is barely acceptable, we’ll subscribe to GitHub because it is the best in class. Google’s support is so bad that we’ll subscribe to O365. Now Bing and OpenAI.

Suddenly Microsoft is the main actor on the internet again.

Any way you look at it, this is pretty amazing.
In Canada, qualifying R&D spending generates a tax credit that can be worth 60% of engineers’ salaries. In other words, a company that spends $1M on engineers in Canada not only writes off the $1M in spending, but also gets a credit of $600,000.

Fine print: this is only available to Canadian-controlled entities. Foreign-controlled entities can claim R&D tax credits as well, but the rate is far less generous.
Anything to boost the ole DAU's.
>like "the preferred channel is to the left of the buoy"

While this is true, we (at least in England) would normally say "leave the buoy to starboard" (though when racing we'd call it a 'mark' rather than a buoy). Perhaps it's habit, I'm not sure, but it's generally unambiguous.
This makes zero sense to me. By what logic would a salary paid this fiscal year (be it for R&D or any other activity, I don't see why there would be any difference there) not be a simple expense to be fully deducted from the revenue in the calculation of the profit for this same fiscal year?
One of the fun things I learned when reading master and commander was this.
FWIW, if you read the literature closely, Kuuk Thaayorre is also mixed. They have words for left and right and use them to describe relative orientation, notwithstanding the emphasis on cardinal directions. A related language, Guugu Yimithirr, does seem to completely lack use of left and right to describe spatial orientation; it has the words--similar to Kuuk Thaayorre, words identifying left and right hand/arm--but it doesn't extend them figuratively as Kuuk Thaayorre does. (They both extend other body-related orientation terminology, e.g. to describe being ahead or behind something or someone.) However, Guugo Yimithirr seems to heavily rely on hand and body gestures to help establish relative orientation of the subject or object. Reading the literature, I don't think Guugo Yimithirr would be capable of adequately conveying direction and orientation over the telephone.

Alot of the literature also makes hay about these language speakers having preternatural skills at maintaining a cardinal orientation mentally. I don't doubt they're good at it, but I suspect that that skill is something that has only recently become uncommon in the industrialized world. As a kid growing up in the U.S., being able to keep track of cardinal orientation was something I understood as a skill expected of men, and not by tracking the sun or consciously using other obvious markers. It was quite obviously a vestigial gendered skill at that point--noteworthy if you had any proficiency at it--but clearly one within recent memory of male adults. Moreover, AFAIU, there's also research showing that Americans tend to use cardinal directions and navigation more than many European countries, presumably related to our lived geography.

Interestingly, the literature on Guugu Yimithirr says that cardinal orientation accuracy relative to the Earth is much better the further away the described location. For descriptions closer to home (i.e. the central city/village of the group), accuracy was often off by 30+ degrees, seemingly because cardinal orientation is more dominated by familiar local topographic features. Moreover, IIRC, it seems cardinal direction isn't absolute in these languages. Which, at least intuitively, makes alot of sense to me. For example, the Bay Area is askew; when giving directions "north" is closer to north-west (middle peninsula, East Bay) or north-by-north-west (city), but everybody (conscious or not) is very consistent about the rotation and bending.
"COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT IS YOUR BEST ENTERTAINMENT VALUE"
The subject is growth hacking and social networks.

Social networks grow big by targeting young female users as a vector for growth. Well documented countless times and talked about at length by the people who work there, this is one of the very key original "growth hacks" and not some sort of secret.

Rihanna posts baby pictures on twitter that get more views and engagement than all of the fediverse combined. This captures the key demographic.

You're welcome to publicly explain how the statement that you need buy in from content producers in the vain of Rihanna/Swift/Kardashians/BlackPink to capture the young female crowd, which brings in the young male crowd, which drives enough critical mass to bring in everybody else, an outright mathematical fact (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metcalfe's_law), as some sort of flame bait.
