I wonder if the lawsuit would have gone differently had they had thousands of DVD players that you were viewing the DVDs from remotely.
because one of deno's key selling points is restrictions on permissions, on what can a running script do to its environment.

did the french government put that guy on a terrorist list somewhere or what?

in countries such as France, Australia, UK, Ireland, India, South Africa it’s pretty clear: refuse to give password > fine and/or jail.

in other countries such as the US, Netherlands, Spain, New Zealand, Germany, Finland things are more grey. most have a version of the “self-incrimination”, but they’ll just go around the suspect in order to get the data, or get the data and try their luck at trial.

and from what i’ve experienced first hand, the few arab countries i’ve visited will straight up assume you’ve got something to hide if you don’t unlock everything you’ve got on you.
Does that mean when you file a maintenance request they have to number everything on the ship since "aft 2nd floor" doesn't narrow things down much?
Not quite a decade but ever since Greykey became a thing Apple has locked down USB while locked.
What are all these declarations of "incredible" and so on? Where's the proof? Where's the bug tracker? I wrote literally that you cannot file a bug, and all answers here "oh, it's so great!" but still nothing about that bug tracker...
"How many words are there in "The Star Spangled Banner"?" LOL hahaha

Will relay your feedback about the icon back to the team - thank you for trying this out!
This is the same method I use. I always wondered why they didn't use the cardinal directions (north, east, south, west) or why they didn't use the hours of a clock face to indicate direction. With the clock face, you get even more precision where exactly something happened. Man overboard, 4 o'clock!
What is the standard web application backend framework for Node.js these days, is it Koa? As I understand it express is quite dated because of the callback structure.

I have been confused recently with the moving best practices. What is the server architecture Next.js is most often plugged into?
Playing with it a bit more, it feels really intentional. You really have to… for lack of a better phrase “fling yourself inwards” with the zoom to get it to keep moving.
In the past, search engines such as DuckDuckGo have utilized Bing's index, primarily because Microsoft was eager to challenge Google's dominance and welcomed the participation of smaller players.

However, as the linked article suggests, if Microsoft now plans to close off Bing's API (potentially sensing vulnerability in Google), it seems that the influence of monopoly power remains strong and prevalent.
Not even the feeling of time passing -- just the animation alone make me anxious.

If it were just names floating by using the same animation, it would have the same effect, I think.
I can’t see anything about trend mining on the summary. Could you show where they’re doing the same thing?

What you described sounds like a way to search documents not mine for trends.

How is ChatGPT going to infer connections here without supervision? Are you saying the process is to paste every medical record into the context window and then prompt GPT to “find common patterns in the above?”

That doesn’t sound likely to come up with useful results on its own… Maybe I’m wrong though.

It’s seems more likely that GPT is being used to interpret the text into a standardised form that can then be mined using other techniques.

As opposed to the website? I thought everyone is pushing apps now.
I find it invigorating in a way - there's a constant stream of fresh new seconds coming your way, moments you've never before seen in your life and so could hold anything in them.

But I can understand the anxiety a lot of people seem to be feeling at this: I had (and have) a similar response to WaitButWhy's [Your Life in Weeks](https://waitbutwhy.com/2014/05/life-weeks.html) post.
These days you get the same in Gnome, KDE, and even i3 or sway with minimal effort.
One more nonsense... Come on! Did you file a bug to AWS? -- No, you didn't. So, why are you answering me about your great experience? You are writing something irrelevant.
You do not have to hand it to the Nazis on Eugenics. Preventing the "wrong people" from breeding always seems to devolve to genocide.
If you look beyond the highest prices on that list and compare the cost of a smaller apartment to the cost of a larger suburban home plus car plus filling that home with stuff then walkable living gets a lot more competitive cost-wise.

It’s just that people won’t spend a bit more to get the thing they claim they want. So it’s hard for me to believe that they really want walkable neighborhoods that badly. They want big cars, big houses, and suburbs.

For example, I’m in Portland, OR and rent a 600 square foot apartment for $1,200 a month. I can bike downtown in 20 minutes. I walk or bike everywhere and have no transportation expenses beyond bike maintenance and the occasional bus pass.

It’s just that people like to ignore that so they can avoid changing their lifestyle and put the blame on the system rather than themselves. “This would never work for me… I need… I have to… It’s too expensive…”
I heard a similar story from someone I know at AWS.
it's unambiguous if you know you're talking about direction relative to the boat, but you don't know that you're talking about direction relative to the boat.

your left hand is still your left hand, even if it's on the starboard side of the boat. you always need some additional disambiguation to specify that you're talking about the boat. i've never sailed a boat with slavic people, but i'm guessing they use a phrase like "boat left" and "boat right", not just "left" or "right".

also, i've never heard anybody describe a riverbank as "left" or "right". riverbanks would be described by their cardinal direction, like the "east bank" or the "south bank"

> Entire vast orgs of teams who had no context on the problem they were solving, previous efforts, etc, because they were all so new.

To be frank, that was my opinion of Facebook before you were hired.
And where do you do this? Care to give a link to the bug tracker? I don't want to file mine because maybe I duplicate your issues?
Career wise? Software engineering, 100%. That's not going away, and this is an industry that mostly does still care about university degrees (though I'm sure you could self-study, build a small portfolio and go that route and have success).
The important takeaway is that the vulns they were using have been fixed in the latest iOS 16 updates, which is a far faster response than the old NSO imessage zeroday which took Apple over a year to figure out.
I do think the team kind of gave up too though.

The design support ask is complicated, and definitely AMD is not the company it used to be in this regard, but I genuinely don't think these very heavily integrated SoC should have a bunch of hands-on support from AMD to make them go.

Reciprocally, my god, there have been such shit Ryzen embedded offerings. The cost is astronomical. The flight upmarket is just so notable. I want to hope there are some decent low-end available x86 CPUs still about, it's just that no one is interested in trying to play a margins game & the market expects everyone to pay industrial-computing prices, is under-utilizing AMD's offerings, but I genuinely don't know. AMD better have some solid sub $50 chips. Sell some cut down dual core x86 with some PCIe damn you. Do something. Please.

It sucks so much that there's just nothing else to even lean on. Nothing else other than x86 has decent IO subsystems, with a fair mix of USB/PCIe/ethernet. ARM and RISC-V have some slowly upmarket march from the bottom but none of these have anywhere near the flexibility, capability, or use of even this decade old GX-412C.
just like fly.io and supabase, good content.
I only rent a small server from them, but I've been happy with their support. Talked to a real human who could help me with tech questions, even though I pay them next to nothing.

> At the other extreme you have the medical profession where the first thing you learn in medical school is that left/right always refer to the patient's perspective

In (musical) theatre we do it the other way around. The we call it "stage left" and "stage right" or "SL and SR" since we use abbreviations everywhere in our notes. It's always from the "stage manager's perspective" which is traditionally (but not always) facing the audience.

If the stage manager is facing a different way that doesn't affect the meaning of left/right.

It's from their perspective because they are basically the only person who isn't running around like a chook with their head cut off (because their eyes are glued to the script and video screens - https://youtu.be/DP2QOmN57iU?t=82).
This is exactly what I’m talking about. Blame the auto industry. Blame whoever.

But the plan to live a walkable lifestyle exists. It’s just that people don’t want a walkable lifestyle as much as they say they do or they’d find a way to make it happen.
And I’m saying this wasn’t always the case for the majority. It’s worth understanding how that came to be
I do not like another bit of entropy.
The big new feature is a sandboxing with explicit CLI flag opt in to permissions, exactly like deno pioneered. Except there's zero mention of deno as a clear inspiration of the feature.
Buying used DVDs and then just reselling them when you are done isn't a bad way to handle a series that you want to watch.
And you filed a bug in a bug tracker accessible to all AWS customers and was able to track the progress on your ticket and got some estimates on the issue being fixed? -- No, you didn't, because there's no such thing. Stop this unnecessary shilling / wilful misinterpretation of what I wrote.
That's a good nuclear option, but often we don't actually want to block all cookies. What we want is for sites to use cookies in ways that benefit us, but not use cookies to track us. Blocking them all or selectively allowing specifically chosen cookies puts to onus on the visitor to guess which cookies do what or lose functionality. Making the website owner legally responsible for declaring which cookies are for tracking and which provide functionality is a boon.
And further, "port" wine is red, and the red beacon light is on the port side of an aeroplane (with the starboard side having green, and white on the tail)
deno's built-in test runner is also a big selling point for me, and Node.js 20 is declaring theirs (node:test) to be stable.
My understanding is that port’s usage is somewhat recent. In the English sailing world the opposite of starboard was larboard. The royal navy made the change within the last few hundred years.
Express is still fine to use. To me it's either express or fastify. A lot of opinions in the JS world.
This is the same approach as Mini-GPT4 of training a linear layer using frozen image encoder and text decoder. the difference is that they use CLIP instead of BLIP, and LLaMA instead of Vicuna (which was trained on LLaMA. Interesting that they both came out at the same time.
No accountability is coming, and they are certainly not afraid, after all it’s their monopoly on power and not yours. Dogs keep pushing your boundaries until you resist, so do other people, and any government machine is no different. They are not fragile at all. They do it simply because they can and also for the reason that the accountability is nowhere near. If you can impose more control on the population that won’t resist it while being on their payroll, then, after all, why not?

> this weird dystopian view of a 400sqft apartment and clothes hung out to dry

This is only dystopian if this is how you view it. I live in a 600 square foot apartment and hang my clothes out to dry. The sun is free!

A 2500’ square foot house is much more dystopian to me personally.
With double ended ferries you're going to dock bow first because that's the direction all the cars pointed.

If you got halfway through a crossing and they announced there's a problem at the destination (broken thruster, docks on fire, dragons, docks on fire because of dragons), you would have to turn the ship around 180º and go back to your origin with the same bow that you started the trip with so everyone could disembark. The only time you'd switch ship orientation mid-trip is if something broke such that one end of the ship was navigable and the other was not. At which point you'd either have to dock backward (maybe with a tug) or everyone would have to back off the ship.
On one hand, this was required from the beginning (this is just a clarification of original intent, not a change or addition)

However it's deeper since the popups we see today were never recommended nor required by the original regs. The laborious nonsense we endure was invented by websites as a workaround for the regs. So it wasn't obvious that consent parity would ever need to be clarified like this because it wasn't even obvious that the industry would come up with such an awful popup pattern to begin with (though in retrospect we should've known I guess).

The fact the popups were never even compliant anyway is just a combination of wilful ignorance, dark patterns, consulting companies wanting to sell something and - yes - an added set of people innocently misinterpreting regulation.
File management in Windows is, I think, the best for a consumer OS, on par with Linux (sometimes better, sometime worse, depending on your distro).

Not because it is good, but because Microsoft can't keep up with the others when it comes to messing up file management.

iOS: you essentially don't have files, just internal storage for apps

Android: you have files, but they are making it really hard to access them

MacOS: actually not that bad, but they still try hard to hide the filesystem from you

Linux: it is a UNIX system, files are everything and you have free access, but the experience tends to be inconsistent because there is no standard toolkit

With Windows, you have full access to the filesystem (depending on your permissions of course), the UI has become inconsistent lately, but there is almost always a way to get to the common file picker, and the explorer shell is quite nice: you can open file, copy, move, drag and drop, etc... with relative consistency. These operations seem trivial but if you have used some bare bone Linux desktops, you will realize that they are not.
Microsoft clearly has zero interest in the idiots who buy retail licenses, especially home licenses. They'll cash your check, but they're not going to pay any attention to your opinions. You're trapped in their ecosystem and they have no reason to pay attention to your desires. They're going to sell your eyeballs to as many advertisers as possible and there's nothing you can do about it.
What's wrong with paying employees more? Income tax is a thing and that's on revenue, not profit. You'll get a bigger cut of that then other expenses. And a bigger cut of that than equity comp and share buybacks where that's cap gains. Income is great!

"You have to go out of your way (and probably do a web search) in order to figure out how to install Win 11 without using a Microsoft Account."

You are not kidding. I bought my parents two computers and set them up from scratch, taking pains to create local user accounts (because they don't have Microsoft accounts). On one of them, I have no idea how, the sole user ID still managed to be a POS "Microsoft account" created with an arbitrary number of characters from my dad's E-mail ID or something.

The endless badgering to log in with a "Microsoft account" that nobody wants or needs is enough to make me not use Windows. It is beyond offensive at this point.

Dear Microsoft: NOBODY NEEDS ANOTHER "ACCOUNT." This offensive hounding, in combination with the fact that Windows is a disgraceful mess from form to function now, makes it an afterthought in my household. I'm a software developer, and I don't have a single installation of Windows running in my home (and office).
The founders didn’t create the filibuster because they already created a fuck load of checks on the majority. Making even more is senseless.
Disclaimer: I'm an engineer at Meta AMA.

I don't know what anyone else in the non-MPK/-FRE buildings here is doing, but 95% chance it's not engineering. Mostly, it seems like most workers in the building chit-chat and have meetings rather than do anything resembling actual work that's building product going in front of users. Country-club, cult-of-toxic-positivity lots of relaxing going on, in my view.

In my view, you're either a hustler, a hacker, or a manager of such to be essential to a tech business. You don't need any strategic hiring coordinating coordinators for higher-education. Also, the spend on R&D needs to be more focused on productization. Finally, I'm still wondering why there's no consultantish enterprise sales arm monetizing and discovering opportunities for lucrative SaaS products like Workplace.
It's not that the government is "large". It's that the representatives from different parties are unable to work together to get stuff done. I think it's mostly the way the media cover politics - they can't be seen to be weak.
I've used this - https://adonisjs.com/ - I don't think it's "standard". Is there such a thing? I guess Express was a de-facto standard. I'm a bit biased since I come from Laravel background, so adonis feels familiar.
But aren't you deriving value from what they developed in the first year? I mean, maybe that's my mistake.

If they spent a million, made a million, and are now back to square one, it would make more sense to not amortize the investment because it's not an investment.
I'll give you that point about the shell. I don't care for it either.
And you found a bug in AWS and managed to file a ticket? Right? And that ticket is visible to other customers, so they don't need to duplicate it if they also find it? And they assigned the ticket, triaged it, scheduled the fix, released the fix? -- No, of course not, because there's no such thing.

Read what you are replying to.
And you can set someone up by just filling their hard drive with random data. Now all you need next is a fake tip off for child porn or something similar. The police will ask to "decrypt" it, but nobody has the key. Absolutely insane, yes the UK is probably already a de facto police state, because of this, the mass surveillance, "smart" CCTV everywhere and numerous other attempts by the government to strip us of our liberties.

Yes, because the Overton window has slipped so far, we are in a situation now, that in the 1970s people would easily class as a police state. Mass Internet surveillance, with complete dossiers on every web user being compiled by GCHQ, the criminalization of possession of data, which is a thought crime, yes prison for possessing certain books that are legal in the US. The list goes on and on.

All supposedly to protect us from some minor threat, whatever is in vogue as the latest moral panic (e.g. terrorism, child pornography, petty harassment, etc.). All while so many more people are killed or harmed in road traffic accidents each year than from all of those combined.

It really is nothing but excuses for authoritarianism. Yes, fascism, in disguise there. I don't even want to imagine what things will be like in 20-30 years time for now, if it continues at this rate.
The thing that is most striking to me about your explanation is that the change was made six years ago; it seems that anyone responsible for a company's tax position and cashflow (CFO, accountant, etc) should have been planning for this between then and now. Much like the SVB panic, a great deal of this seems to be people running companies without either paying attention to things that could have a significant impact, or hiring someone who does.
My teacher wife has seen this several times already.

I'm surprised PyLance isn't in the list of linters that they benchmarked. It's the fastest one by far, in my experience, and it's conveniently available in the VSCode Python plugin.
I'll never understand how these companies literally doubled or tripled in size.

Nobody thought to themselves "maybe this zero-rate interest environment will end", or "maybe our business model is losing steam"?

No, instead they went full-on increasing headcount, leaving software engineers scratching their heads on exactly what they were supposed to be doing.

When discussions started about companies "poaching" talent so that others couldn't get them, I saw the writing on the wall. Possibly no role even lined up, but let's just get them onboard and we'll figure that out later.

I'm over 20 years into this career but am not FAANG. I like my boring, predictable companies for some reason, and they like me.
