Honestly the reason we went with okta is because many vendors seem to support it and have help articles specifically for how to integrate with Okta vs just OIDC/SAML or general SCIM.
Python is actually one of the things I've found it to be great with, you can for example have all your "command" recipes depend on the virtualenv directory, and the virtualenv directory depend on your requirements / lock file. That way you don't have to worry about keeping the virtualenv up-to-date, it'll automatically do so any time the requirements file changes next time you try to do something, and it'll skip that step entirely if nothing changed.

The only downside is that the last part requires a small addition, the install doesn't change the virtualenv dir's last-modified, so that recipe has to end with "touch $@".
Not for me. Did you test it on any Mac?

I had no idea this was a thing, it looks super useful. Anybody familiar with any similar offerings from non-google companies? Or is anybody doing it for npm packages?
> housing costs completely decoupling from fundamentals,

Not true in most markets. Compare to build/replacement costs.

In a high inflation environment with 30+ trillion in national debt and 186 trillion in unfunded liabilities, I'll take my chances with hard assets that are connected to fundamentals like housing.

They WILL pivot and print in overdrive. There is no way out at this point. And not just the US, the world cannot handle higher interest rates which causes more demand for the dollar. The entire world is jacked up on eurodollar debt that is not sustainable. And those with the assets will gladly choose inflation over deflation.

"Inflation is transitory". "Banks are fine"

We're led by morons, shills and thieves.

The Case Against Automatic Dependency Updates
It's a beautiful & succinct language to write in.

When you know it & it's various implicit various implicit variables, you feel enormously powerful, are able to make really beautiful use of the bountiful context Perl leaves out for you. It's heady & compelling in a way almost nothing else ever has been for me.

Pass by sigil is weird but everything being named symbols is a powerfully simple concept, that opens interesting roads.

But gee it sure is nearly impossible to read after. Rebuilding the context of how everything fits together, remembering each little rule you've taken advantage of is a trying puzzle indeed.

Sidenote, it's a long far off hope (lots of the base deb tools are Perl), but I hope someday we can run a Debian system without Perl, that we end up with more mature replacements eventually. It being everywhere is the authors #1. In general they try to present practical sensible reasons. But so few are language specific concerns, are context but not really talking "Why Perl" itself, why Perl the language. The seductive heady weird ambiance of Perl is so unique, is a much less structured & clear "why".
This is for my own SSG ;)
Exactly. Not enough supply. Build costs exorbitant. There will not be some magical supply out of nowhere nor a big drop in build costs. So thus prices, IMO, in most major metros are connected to fundamentals.

If housing was not connected to fundamentals, home sale prices would have been exposed and taken a nose dive with the movement in interest rates. People aren't getting any easy money. They are still buying.

If you're actually going to do this, you'll probably also want:

.ONESHELL:

This puts the entire recipe into one script, instead of running each line separately, so you can use (for example) variables across lines. It does mean you lose the "abort the recipe immediately if any individual line fails" functionality in make, but for python that's just how it works anyway when an exception is raised.

AFAICT any modern multiplayer games use a central node that forces a coherent state of the world on all clients, otherwise cheating through desync becomes a serious problem. (Trusting clients in adversarial transactions, like deathmatch, is hard in general: cheating through altered rendering also used to be a thing.)
There are also (rare nowadays and are mostly available in higher end / performance cars but used to be more frequent in late 80's and 90's):

FF 4WS

FR 4WS

4WS is for «four wheel steering» (the emphasis is on «steering», not «driving») where – depending on the travelling speed – the rear pair of wheels turns either in the direction opposite to the front wheels (≤ 20 kmh) or in the same direction (≥ 20 kmh). The former makes the parking easier and reduces a turnaround circle. The latter makes the car look moving sideways when going around a bend or disappearing from its lane and emerging in the neighbouring lane during the lane change. 4WS also handles a bit differently on slippery roads around the bends.

I’m not convinced that you can meaningfully raise the bar beyond “beyond a reasonable doubt” (or even that you can get juries to consistently apply “beyond a reasonable doubt”.)

Regardless of jury instructions, I think what you normally get in practice is “beyond the point at which you are convinced the accused should be treated as guilty”.

- 25,000 ft; 7,600 m: 3-5 min

- 28,000 ft; 8,550 m: 2.5-3 min

- 30,000 ft; 9,150 m: 1-2 min

- 35,000 ft; 10,650 m: 30-60 sec

- 40,000 ft; 12,200 m: 15-20 sec

As a keen OpenStreetmapper I'm always interested in improvement to accuracy. However its a two edge sword as I found out when I got a L1/L5 mouse receiver. A whole bunch of street centrelines locally are out by 1-2m which is seriously annoying when you know about it.
I empathize with victims, not their blood lust.

I don't have faith in the state’s ability to remove the actual perpetrator from the streets. They pick someone, and defend that choice.
I think you're right about the framework-constructing.

The social games that make insincerity natural come more intuitively to neurotypicals, so they don't notice they're playing them. When they do, and try to analyse themselves, I don't think they get it right often, because they don't have to build up an understanding of said games from the ground up like we do.

This article isn't based on anything really, it's some rules conjured out of nowhere to explain some anecdotes. Like you said, a framework for the falsehoods more than a tool to be more sincere.

I found this and read some of the code a while ago. Was very surprised it was in Perl, but makes sense I guess.
I know a lot of people who drive big trucks, and all of them regularly use them for: hauling building materials, towing RVs, towing boats, towing four wheelers/dirt bikes/UTVs/snowmobiles, pulling utility trailers (for trash pickup, job site cleanup, lumber & metal, piping, furniture, landscaping, tree service, etc), tailgating parties, hunting, mudding, off-roading, barbecuing (towing a smoker), etc.

Literally don't know one person that drives a truck "for vanity" and I gotta know at least a few hundred truck owners.

I drive a F350. It will tow a mountain. I pull a fifth wheel with it. People are often surprised to hear that it gets 20 miles per gallon when it's not towing anything.

While I love the truck, I miss my old Tacoma. The Tacoma was a smoother ride and far more practical for urban navigation. But Tacomas have a bout a fifth or even less as much tow capacity as an F350.

Big trucks aren't causing social ills for anyone except people that have nothing better to do but complain about other people enjoying their own lives.
Copilot is already "backed" by OpenAI – it uses Codex under the hood which is a fine-tuned GPT-3 model.

Strategically, they were caught with their pants down when the US demonstrated they were serious about going to the Moon. The soviet space program was great at sending cosmonauts to LEO, but they had no ability, and no desire to spend the time and effort to develop the ability, to go to the Moon.

They planned and expensed the N1 as if it was another LEO Soyuz variant.

There's nothing more utilitarian than an extended-cab truck if you're a "divorced dad". You're hauling kids, furniture, trash, tools, etc. And if you need to move cross country guess what...You can tow a trailer. And I'd argue "ego lifting" is buying a 15k carbon fiber bike and riding in a traffic snarling peleton with your euro bike buddies...Everybody's guilty of some form of ego.

Cool. So when the nuclear industry offers a 40 year contract for all the energy a 1GW nuclear plant produces with no liability cap, fully funded decomissioning insured against bankruptcy, and fully funded cleanup of mines payable in full after it has been operating for 1 year at >92% CF for $3 billion we'll know you're telling the truth about it costing <$30/MWh.

Until then it's just lies and whining to demand handouts.
Good luck in your search, Ammar. Thanks for sharing.

It’s a pretty well known blog, from a pretty well known security company.

I would also go as far as to say that “PGP is bad and should not be used for greenfield projects” is not a remotely controversial opinion in applied cryptography circles. Likewise, it is not controversial in those circles to assert that PGP is more or less the opposite of current technology for digital signatures.

Some more helpful links by generally recognized authorities[1][2]. You’ll note that each of these is more than a few years old at this point; PGP’s deficiencies are very well trodden.

No, it’s not similar (other than superficially, as both use diffusion methods in some way). It uses diffusion to generate latent vectors that are entered in a neural audio codec model to produce speech.

Visual surveying within and over Australia is hard (source: a few decades of Australian geophysical surveying practice) .. wide area ground shots from 80m altitude (low altitude aircraft) look extremely similar across large areas making feature picking for location improvement difficult.

In an agricultural setting Western Australian grain fields are hundreds of acres in size across relatively flat landscapes .. it's a sea of waving grain to the horizon in all directions from tractor height.

While there are locations that have distinct visual features it's no universal panecea and won't offer the cm accuracy desired.

The trucks have all just gone through auction and have inspection reports. Mine I bought for $2k was grade 3.5 and what I’d consider pristine for a 25 year old truck. The Japanese are pretty trustworthy people to do business with, and they build great vehicles.

One thing the author left out was the fascination I had with the whole process. Watching auctions, assignment to a ship, tracking it through the ocean and storms and watching on video as it passed through the Panama Canal. Then the customs and importation paperwork with CBP, going to the port, the driving 200 miles home in my new “truck” that had road manners more akin to my golf cart than anything actually on the road around me. I-95 was terrifying— I barely got off the on-ramp before looking for the next off-ramp to find backroads for the rest of the journey.

A year ago after seeing a claim that $250k in San Francisco is like $100k in most of the rest of the country, due to rent, taxes, and food, I tried to check if that was true and it didn't seem to be. What have I missed?

For rent, a median one bedroom apartment in SF would be $14-18k/year more than a median one bedroom apartment in Seattle, Chicago, Nashville, Orlando, Sacramento, Austin, or Fresno.

Average monthly spending on food in SF is about $150 above the national average, so that's another $1800/year you need. But that probably includes a lot of people who do their own cooking. Maybe tech workers need to buy all their meals. I found a tourist planning site that said the average tourist in SF spends $32/day on meals, so let's use that instead of $150/month above national food average. That would mean we need $12k/year extra for SF for food.

So someone coming to SF from one of those other places needs an after tax income that is equal to their after tax from their $100k in their old city, plus $30k after tax for rent and food.

That requires a salary of $148k.

That's a long way from $300k, so what other costs are missing?
I’ve been downvoted over this before but really we just need weight limits on cars. Efficiency is pretty closely aligned and we seem to regulate that just fine.

Falcon Heavy has 3 packs of 9 engines, each pack is thoroughly tested. They can treat the whole package as 3 sources of thrust, manipulating them as a one (which they actually do). Every booster has its own fuel tanks, lines and so on.

Also, I don't remember a single engine failure during Falcon Heavy launches. Today we had 8 (?) of them.
This comment reminds me of what Facebook did to the open web in 2005.

Before Facebook, the web was more open, with websites being more accessible to each other. Google scraped resources like Wikipedia and Twitter, and augmented the results into their search page.

When Facebook appeared, Google tried to integrate Facebook data into their search page. But Facebook, then an up-and-coming internet company, wanted to protect their data as a competitive moat. With this seeming to set an example, each platform started to hoard their data on their website. The web no longer interoperated with their data, and all data began to be siloed in their own platforms.
Earlier you seemed to imply that you could achieve max Q with six engines out by not throttling down as much. Why does the same not apply to overcoming possibly dented engine nozzles?
Yah but do those words - as we would typically understand them - mean the same thing when applied to a computational model? A great deal of intellectual legerdemain is going on in many of these descriptions.

OK but, doesn't intel internally use 80 bits of precision for float64 computations? If that's the case, you can't even guarantee that float64 multiplication and addition would behave the same on say x86 vs arm.
> The fact that Microsoft is baking GPT into all of their products guarantees explosive growth.

Why?
There is no meaningful sense in which PGP is “canceled”, except in the kind of shitpost sense I would use in a talk slide.

Open alternatives exist, are better, and have been better for well over a decade at this point. No significant risk is posed to “open tech” by doing things better than PGP can possibly offer us.
I don't know what you're talking about. The Space Shuttle blew up twice, killed too many people out of sheer incompetence. And it flew again both times. Both times because NASA needed the vehicle to deliver on its promises. The Space Shuttle should never have flown after Columbia was lost. But it did, because NASA decided to live with the risks.

Babylon.js is (working towards) being a batteries included game engine. Three.js is a rendering engine with a lot of first and third party plugins. Add the right plugins and you can probably do anything Babylon can, or use as is and you can make a lightweight landing page.

An analogy is an IDE vs VSCode. Pre-built vs lightweight and extensible.

Until recently, I think Three.js has been a better fit for the "web" paradigm where everything has to be lightweight and the main focus of 3d graphics is landing pages that need to load in 3s or so.

On the other hand, Babylon.js is also an amazing tool and I think the comparison to Three.js is a little unfair to both. They solve different problems in the 3D space, and both are great at what they do. A better comparison for Babylon.js is Playcanvas.
> it's far more eco friendly and lower carbon Footprint to own an rv and travel and stay in it in various places than to own several properties and fly between them.

It's considered worse to drive (vs fly) unless you have more than 2 people-- and that's for a normal car. With a truck+trailer the break-even point would need more passengers.

A reasoning engine in an infinite loop of calling itself referencing a sense of self and sensory input.

Essentially asking a language model to “pretend you are a..” and give an answer is no different than what happens in the human mind, except in us it happens in an infinite loop. We consider what we think we are, and act in the way our reasoning engine thinks what we are would do given the current sensory input.
