> I liken this to people who buy a house near an airport then lobby to get the airport closed

Well, no, in this case it’s the government going to see the pseudo-monopolist and telling them: "Party is over. There is going to be some competition there from now on." Something I most definitely cheer for.
Have you considered that there might instead be a consistent, principled objection towards injecting the author's personal stereotypes of random ethnic groups? A 5 word aside that takes the discussion from analysis corporate culture towards people complaining about other hypothetical people who complain about the "Woke Mind Virus" seems both toxic and ineffective.

That's not a difficult problem, technically. There are a number of ways it can be done. Anything from comparing checksums to eFuses.

Yes. My point is that avoiding open sourcing firmware because of the risk of piracy or reverse-engineering doesn't make sense because pirates and/or interested engineers will do it directly from the devices anyway.
I think Reddit has a golden opportunity here, considering how often I prefix searches with "site:reddit.com" to filter out SEO bullshit and usually get an answer from a subject-matter expert in the top ten results. They could even tie an LLM into it and regurgitate the highest-voted comment, and it would likely be more effective than Google or GPT.
MaslOS A custom OS made from almost scratch
I never had a strong opinion about how exactly Mastodon measures "active_user_count". I did find it curious from https://api.joinmastodon.org/statistics that they seem to be scraping the servers every day, and this suggested to me that they might be counting daily active users. I could be wrong though. I don't know the technical details of how they calculate it. And I already said earlier: "In any case, as another commenter mentioned, DAU and MAU tend to be relatively close. You don't go from 1.2M monthly users all the way down to 50K daily active users, that's nonsense." https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35602391 So I was already granting that 1.2M could be the monthly user account, even while considering the possibility that it might be the daily count. I don't really care either way. I don't think it helps your argument if it's the monthly user account. So let 1.2 million be the monthly user count. Now will you explain your estimate methodology?

At this point I doubt that you will. You seem to be very committed to avoiding the question, even though I've granted the assumption that you wanted.
I can't wait for this day. The day I can run any new release on Linux, I will be off windows forever.
Same thing. I bought 10 pro, used a local account (that is now harder to do), turned off every switch on the next setup page (no cortana etc), and I had to right click -> banish the dumb tiles on the start menu, one of which was candy crush, and now it just looks like a normal Windows start menu from the bad old days.

None of that should have been forced on me, and I don't like it, but it's not incessant like everyone seems to say.
Interesting this is built on an AR-15 lower receiver, with the detachable magazine being a battery.

I'd think it would be a lot easier and cheaper to build one of these from the ground up instead of using a real not-electric firearm
> it also has the potential to reduce the number of dangerous pursuits.

I agree that it does in concept, I just can't see them reliably tagging vehicles with a launcher as anemic as this one. The speed and range of the projectile is significantly less than an average healthy adult could achieve by throwing it.

The only situation I can think of where it would maybe work is at a DUI checkpoint. An officer could be standing next to the vehicle with the launcher, ready to fire as soon as it starts to move. Even then they'd better be quick about it.
Great to see this but dataset is the trickiest part. There is no way to confirm if this is good dataset unless model is actually trained on it. To reproduce LLaMA, you need $2M of compute.

My sympathies to our brothers and sisters in Canuckistan on their wait times. I won't tell you how many were on the lot of the dealer we purchased from. They even had Ioniq 6s just off the truck.

Anyway, we've had it since Friday, and I would highly recommend the car. Now, we came off a 12 year old Leaf, so perhaps we're easily impressed. But for us it hit the price/feature crossover point that we were willing to pay. Looked at Audi, BMW, MB, but those seemed to be priced just above what we were willing to pay for the features we wanted. Tesla was off the table for reasons (and I find the seats uncomfy). VW: "too plasticy", sez the spouse and too big sez me. Was going to wait on 2024 Chevy (probably Blazer), but no CarPlay. Didn't want another Leaf, and the new Nissan EV crossover is aesthetically unappealing (and frankly, wasn't all that impressed with Nissan). And so it was Hyundai's sale to lose.

I'll start with the bad, especially for the PNW: did you seriously think this thing didn't need a rear wiper, Hyundai? Well, it desperately does. And we have to back into the garage to charge because the port is on passenger rear, instead of up front and center like the Leaf. Given our garage and public charger layout, a centrally-located front charging port seems to make more sense. If I get ambitious, maybe I'll move the charger some weekend.

Other than that, can't say enough good things about it (top-trim Limited w/AWD). Seats are super comfy, plenty of headroom for a 6'/183cm person. Build quality seems solid. I've owned sports cars over the years, and currently ride a powerful motorcycle, so "fun to drive" is a high bar for me, and the Ioniq does NOT go over that bar. It's a heavy grocery-getter. That said, for a heavy grocery-getter, it's kind of impressive. Of course it has the tons of torque from the electric motors, and 330bhp to match, so it most certainly gets out of its own way in a hurry. I tried to upset the tires on a damp road uphill on some corners, and the AWD keeps things planted. It's still new, though, and I wasn't giving it 100% effort to try and land in the ditch. :-) So maybe not "fun to drive", but certainly "puts a smile on your face".

All kinds of niceties that I won't go into, but it feels like Hyundai tried really hard to put some "luxury" in their otherwise kinda cheap cars. It's a little plasticy in spots, but doesn't feel as cheap as some other brands (see: VW above). I can see us easily being happy with it for at least the 12 years that we put on the Leaf.

In summary, we've kept an eye out for a Leaf replacement for the last couple of years, and I think Hyundai has a hit on their hands.
> If it takes someone to show you how, it is not there yet

Installing Windows is a more complicated and confusing job than installing Linux. The people who have to be shown how to install Linux also have to be shown how to install Windows.

The fact is that I don't really show them how to install and configure this stuff -- it's really very easy. What I do is hold their hand to get them past the fear of the unknown.
Errata are extremely rare. Gross misrepresentations and errors are not, unfortunately.
On the other hand, you can install 3rd party firewalls, virus scanners and more on windows. That also means you can install programs to know what microsoft is doing with your comptuer, and protect yourself.

Currently there is no way on ios to know what an app is really doing, and what it is sending where.

Yes, StackOverflow is not for beginners at all. It's for fairly narrow technical questions.

CodeWeavers is contracted to work on Proton for Valve, and they are the main driving force behind it. I believe Valve only does triage for them. They're also contracting various other devs throughout the Linux desktop community to work on things like Mesa.

All the time, but only when prompted. You have to have a conversation with it and provide more detail which exposes the flaws in its previous answers, then it will happily apologize for its mistakes. (For me, this usually looks like me pasting an error message that its code caused.)

I really hope they find a way to have it apply context from future conversations such that when it learns the error of its ways it emails you a retraction, but that's probably a ways out because humans can't be trusted to not weaponize such a feature into sending spam.
Good luck at your upcoming criminal jury trial.

Apple doesn't offer Uber. Uber offers Uber. Uber offers it through the App Store because that's their only option. And even if the only thing that happens is that Apple takes a smaller percentage, that doesn't impact me at all. I'd still pay the same.

So, in your best case, we have a scenario that is neutral for me. Excuse me for not being thrilled by that.
Those competitors should all lose to SO because SO is a site every developer visits many times per week even if they aren't job hunting.

Indeed can't find me devs that don't know they want to leave their current job yet.
25 years doing dev work, also never used anything more than basic arithmetic. I barely passed my college math requirements - still don’t understand what calculus is for, never came up writing CRUD apps.
Sure, there's lot's of competition. But: the market is also really huge, and SO had a good way to differentiate.

Every business is recruiting and willing to pay hundreds or thousands to fill each spot.
If you get enough friends to come over, eventually you can all pitch in and rent a small property that is centrally located between all of you. You could stock the kitchen with coffee and healthy snacks. Maybe you could even get a whiteboard and a ping pong table!

Wait a minute...
Are these all kicking butt? S3 is great, and I don't know much about SQS...

But EC2? Configurations are static, cost optimisation is hard, the spot market is a pain, reserved instances aren't fun to trade-off. Compared to GCP where you get sustained usage discounts which are much simpler to reason about, and you can spec machines in much more dynamic ways.

And Lambda? It's just not a great environment to build applications for. Frameworks are necessary to tame complexity, API gateway adds a ton more complexity, dealing with any state is difficult. Lambda doesn't seem any better than any of the other FaaS offerings. Fargate seems like a better option for most people who want to use serverless, but again that's not unique.
I suspect you already know this, but for anyone curious: for many of the big live service games, Linux/Proton is usually no substitute for Windows - anti-cheat renders them unplayable. MW2, Fortnite, Tarkov, Hunt, PUBG, Day Z and Cycle are some examples. By contrast, Apex and Halo work fine.

I do quite a lot of my gaming on the Steam Deck these days, but have to keep a windows box around for this reason.

One of the biggest frustrations for people on SO is struggling to find a question that already exists - and then people get really angry when their question is closed as a duplicate... but what if the LLM could take proposed question text and point the person at an answered question so they don't even have to wait for an answer or a duplicate? It'd be much better than the current duplicate finder.
Yeah, it's one of the repeating patterns in media at the time.
How many of those sites has one millionth the brand equity that StackOverflow has with developers?

I am sorry, I don't understand your point then. How is your case relevant to children of college professors or even mere PhDs? You apparently didn't have the same educational opportunities as them by your own account.
I think that at this point, LLM etymology is way more interesting than LLMs themselves.
My assumption is the OP is in Canada, where various online forums seem to indicate that this is the way it is for the whole country. But, yeah, if OP is in the U. S., look elsewhere. There are dealers in Seattle with rows of them.

Not sure yet if I agree with that, given that HyperSwitch is giving me the best of both worlds - a window preview and window titles.

> I hate how flat everything looks.

Windows is honestly worse. The new Settings "app" is... blargh.
The latter. But I suppose it's typical. A given problem usually emerges for thousands of people so it's not surprising I was never the first to ask.

Need data points.

I've used AWS, GCP, and Azure. AWS is still the only cloud I'd use for business critical infrastructure. There hasn't been a drop off in the quality. I'll take AWS compute (EC2, ECS) over anything at Azure and GCP. Warts and all.
Does the distinction actually matter?

I think this is the huge thing in common here. If kids are read to from a young age some might pick it up almost "on their own" while others may wait and learn in early elementary school "on schedule", but I think will largely see similar outcomes. But the ones coming at it for the first time from _not_ having experienced reading, even if only from being read to, are starting from a perspective lacking both background and motivation.
