Ah yeah – when first introducing my mother to a first person (non-shooter) game, I was very surprised just how much trouble she had at moving around with WASD and looking around with the mouse at the same time !
I do not find macOS or Windows to be polished. Linux isn't either. They all just have different areas of roughness.
Vodaphone blocks this site for being “18+ content”, I guess because of “hacking” or something? There’s no explanation or option to report a false positive and they want you to put in credit card details to confirm your age to unlock it

With Karabiner Elements you could also bind quit to double Cmd+Q, I do that for "important" apps where accidental quit is bad, but for others (or for apps that don't have tabs) I leave quit to a single Cmd+Q
First of all, the article is talking about 68-70 cents per kWh, not 79 as mentioned by the parent. He also was talking in present tense, not past.
Directionally good, though I'm sure there's a decision tree that's mostly driven by how it benefits AWS. Something like "is committing this back going to save us time maintaining it separately without giving away IP we care about?".
For the purpose of identity - I believe that all you need is the VIN - there have been some questionable restorations of classic cars with largely new replacement parts but the original VIN plates gives the ability to charge as if it were a 'restored' original car.

There are different levels of investment and different level of expectations, and I say this as someone that speaks 3 languages (Romanian, English, French) and understands a few others at a basic level (German, Italian, Spanish).

Children have a very limited vocabulary and tend to make a lot of mistakes (grammar, word usage and pronunciation mistakes) and those mistakes are easily overlooked, especially by adults, since we tend to try to encourage them. Not the case for adult learners.

The second difficulty level is <<cultured>> native speaker. This is massively more difficult since you need to advance from maybe a basic 5-10-15k words to probably 20-40-60k words.

The investment level for C2 (proficiency according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_European_Framework_of_R...) is in the thousands of hours per language, including a ton of deliberate study.

To give you an example of C2, for Romanian you need to be at least a well educated high school student and really understand finer details of Romanian grammar. A native Romanian speaker who hasn't finished at least high school at a good high school is probably a bad C2, despite being a native speaker (or more likely a decent C1).

Now, you obviously don't need to be at the highest level for every language you know, but the gap in effort between levels is huge and people underestimate that. Most people that speak multiple languages are probably somewhere around B1-B2 at most of them. Even purely bilingual kids that learned both languages from birth have idiosyncrasies monolingual native speakers notice, for example.
The other day it wrote the first one or two versions of a python script to connect to a database and do a specific change to a column. I only had to slight changes because my prompt was not super complete and the changes (duplicating some lines and renaming some words) were faster than re-prompting...
Wouldn’t resurrecting the OLPC be an option? It was designed to be repairable and upgradable, and also to be cheap to make and power efficient.

Considering the volumes required if adopted by US schools, it’d be an extremely viable platform.
It's easier to eat a creature that you don't think of as "sentient" or "sapient" (or "cute")… Although, if it's delicious enough, many humans will overlook even those and sometimes will even pay exorbitant sums of money for the privilege of eating something "rare".
“Parachute” is identical in Russian, because in both languages it came from French.

Tesla is actually doing really well now that Musk is busy recouping the 20 billion he's lost on Twitter already. =)
> You can make it narrow enough to only just fit the date at the bottom, without third-party utilities, which seems small enough.

Not sure about your system but on both of mine by default it's over double the thickness of the horizontal taskbar when small icons are used.

> Also also, if you do the maths, the typical vertical taskbar can be significantly thicker and use no more screen area.

So I measured this on my system with a 2560x1440px monitor (16:9 being a typical aspect ratio). Horizontal taskbar total pixels: 76800. Vertical taskbar total pixels: 96480. Vertical orientation still objectively consumes more screen real estate, unless the 7+ Taskbar Tweaker mod is used.

A sibling comment mentions a user with an ultrawide though, which due to the sheer width I suppose is a scenario where the default vertical is smaller overall. Or perhaps if larger icons are used.
Nowhere was I talking about Russia in this thread. I made a point that USSR developed a lot faster than western capitalist nations, and that it made a lot of inventions ahead of the west. You're the one who started bleating about Russia and making weird comments about what percentage of heredity makes a person Russian.
I am a returning player – from long enough ago that I am actually interested in replaying the story... and I think that I prefer the early game the most (when it's less chaotic), might or might not be related to me enjoying and completing the D3 beta with all the (then available) characters, which ended at lvl 12 and the Skeleton King ?
Two xx's. That's almost as bad as three, and surely heuristically naughty.
How would 'forcing' you actually work? Lock you out of the app until you've conversed with a native speaker?

If you are committed to learning a language you will naturally seek out the occasions to practice it outside the app. Duolingo doesn't need to 'force' you to do anything. It's not a parent, it's a helping tool. It seems that most critics of Duolingo have unrealistic expectations.
It's more convenient to have a single binary that does all related operations depending on how it is run.
> because the "Comédie-Française" theatre during the 1770 was in the Tuileries palace, and the stage was oriented with the Louvre courtyard on its right, and the Tuileries garden on its left

That is the most french explanation possible.
It's always worth looking outside your bubble. His mismanagement of Twitter has not exactly improved people's trust in how he's running his other companies. There was definitely a significant chunk of hype in the enthusiasm for Tesla and SpaceX, and that's really been dying down. It's not as "cool" to get a Tesla anymore, and that's undeniably brand damage.
“No data is stored on our servers”? This is disingenuous. You are sending their private conversations to Micr… cough… a third party so there is no way you can make implied or explicit privacy guarantees.
There is a whole investigation showing how their workshops are hell for workers.

https://www.challenges.fr/economie/ce-cash-investigation-qui...

rough translation:

> Workers' testimonies of this company, for the most part immigrants, are overwhelming: fingers cut by the machines, work without a break of 13 hours a day, entire months of unpaid salaries, multiplication of work accidents... and a local work inspection who doesn't give a shit.

If there are microplastics the size of blood cells (this is a range, as cells are differing sizes), how do you filter for blood cells only?

You can dual filter, smaller and larger than, but you'd still have plastics.
USA - 8

Because Tesla is a brand that relied entirely on the CEO for PR/Marketing.

And it's indisputable that Twitter is in serious trouble.

By Musk's own admission the company is worth less than half what he paid for it. Revenue has plummeted, toxicity is rampant, lawsuits are increasing and Twitter Blue has been a disaster that will likely be researched for years.

And so all of this chaos has dragged Musk's reputation down which in turn is affecting Tesla.

A better solution would be to tell Vodafone to switch off the censorship on your service.
Really? The Romans poisoned themselves by using lead in their water pipes. They were ignorant of the danger, but I don't think that disqualifies them from being considered a civilization.
But left-to-right kinda is a law of nature: most people are right-handed, and to avoid messing with previously written glyphs it is natural to move to the right.

Negative spin? The editorialising of it is reasonably nuanced, even going so far as to point out that customers “[might not] have to trade in [their] older Model S or Model X vehicle when taking this offer”, and calling the offer ‘interesting’.

Really hard to see this as anything other than at worst neutral.

I would say that's true for any company that contributes to open source projects.
LVMH owns literally hundreds of brands, many of them far from luxury (Birkenstock, Sephora, Fenty, etc). If one brand goes out of fashion, they'll have two ready to replace it and the budget to buy three more.

I don't really see it.

They're competing with a ton of operators on cost, the margins are very small. When they start offering retail services on supercharger locations, then you know they're serious about making this a profit center.

But ... in Norway at least, Tesla was seemingly very keen on expanding their supercharger network fast, so they partnered up with everything from gas stations to fast food places.
I've always dreamed of controlling my computer with my tongue. This looks fantastic
You didn’t read the article.

It asks for the largest terminating number.
Thank you.

But I meant out of all 100.
I don't think Tesla is necessarily in crisis, but Musk's behaviour definitely has some impact on the trust people have in his company. It's still a big car brand obviously, but to a lot of people, Tesla isn't as cool anymore. Backpedaling on promises isn't going to help.
>> the key point is that neither the IPCC nor NASA GISS reports are affected

You: scientific consensus got more precise over time.

Me: it got less precise over time and there's no consensus on the right answer for a core variable.

You: if you drop models you "know" are wrong then it's got more precise!

That isn't a rebuttal it's a confirmation. The models have been getting less precise about core variables over time and they don't know why. IPCC try to cover this up to some extent by downweighting models they "know" are wrong, but as the article you cite says, most climatologists don't do this and continue to act as if all models are equally correct even though they're diverging and so that can't be true. Result: not only is there no consensus on ECS but there's not even any consensus on what to do about its divergence. No precision, no consensus.

>> there’s no credible reason to think warming will halt or reverse

Temperature trends have halted or reversed even in just the last few decades so that can't be true, although climatologists like to go back and edit the record to try and remove these embarrassing episodes. See: global cooling becoming global warming, and "the pause" e.g.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S167492781...

"Issues related to the pause of global warming in the last decade are reviewed. It is indicated that: (1) The decade of 1999–2008 is still the warmest of the last 30 years, though the global temperature increment is near zero; "
This is simply not true. I say this based on direct research, with users of our no-tracking search engine.

None seem to show a vast preference

That might be some kind of observation effect. Which isn't surprising either: there are various species out there which have a distinct preference for, or even visit only, one specific family of native plants or even just one particular plant. If those plants are already less common to begin with (due to various reasons, unfortunately often human-induced) there's a lot less chance you'll ever get to see the insects which rely on those plants. Just 2 of the many examples for Western Europe which are in decline and becoming hard to find are Andrena hattorfiana haemorrhoidalis and Andrena pandellei. You'd have to be fairly lucky to just see them in your garden, you'd already need to pay attention to now mow the plants they're after at the correct time, if you already have those to begin with. Likewise the more generalist insects who visit a wide range of plants will be much easier to witness.
Probably the xx in the domain.

In the UK where 20% of the internet is blocked – it's surprising you haven't experienced this before. Call your service provider and tell them you want access to adult material.
That's even farther from "basically became everything the founders mocked when they first started it"!
Their s2n projects seem like valuable contributions to the ecosystem. Strong, well maintained libraries supporting networking and cryptography are important.
You might also want to look into "Heroic" (an open source implementation of a GOG and Epic games launcher), and "Lutris", and "Bottles"; all of which can use Proton (and WINE) to launch Windows games and apps on Linux rather easily.
I'm a c-5 incomplete quadriplegic with hemispheric stroke-like paralysis that bothers my body all over. Some of it is just weakness, some of it is incomplete sensation, some of it is total paralysis. I have one weak-yet-functioning hand, and one hand that works only via the tone present in the hand as a rough pointing-poking tool. I use a manual wheelchair. At my injury level I am exceedingly fortunate to have decent trunk and upper body mobility.

I have found setups that work for me, and i'm comfortable now -- but I wish I had something like this years ago when I had to make accommodations.

My main worry in seeing this -- like all accessibility equipment -- is that it will be outrageously priced or locked up behind some kind of insurance coding so as to capture that segment of the market; most medical groups aim for VFW-equivalent equipment coverage on insurance, and I have no-where near that.

That said : I would love this as a device for TIG-torch actuation. That's one nut that I haven't yet been able to crack, and I was seriously considering the idea of tinkering up some kind of mouth-actuated wireless solution for welding. I can imagine this as a PC bridge to an interface that could help realize a fine control for the torch.
We Brits are funny. Obsessed about our independence and not being controlled by Europe, but still paying deference to things such as Roman numerals. Ironically the alternative Arabic numerals are even more “foreign”.

I think my parents spent about $1600AUD on it, which seems cheaper that the originally priced $2200USD. My very vague memories are that I got it in January 1996, so about 6 months after release.

I don't think, for me at least, it was the price tag so much as it was priceless. It wasn't replaceable, but your point is valid. Attitude to technology in much of the developed world is that it's disposable. We don't repair things like we used to.

Smartphones have changed this. You can write characters directly on a touchscreen. It's not as popular of an input method as pinyin, but it's not uncommon either.

I like how deceptively complicated this problem is. It rapidly goes from “oh this is obvious” to “oh I see it now” to “I need multiple cross disciplinary PhDs to understand the answer and it’s proof.”

Unless your library is a drop-in replacement for Pydantic, I don't think it's fair to compare the performance of Pydantic and yours.
We had a single supervisor for both a Elixir/Phoenix web app and all the tasks it spawned to do long running jobs and scheduled tasks. That was very naive. A job too quickly too many times would bring down the supervisor and the web app. We moved the web app to its own supervisor tree and isolated tasks to their own supervisor too. I don't remember the details but at the end everything could crash and everything else would keep running.
I was worried for a moment that the rich weren’t going to get even more obscenely rich this year. Whew! This is great news.

I am more optimistic here. While LLMs allow you to produce tons of garbage, they also provide the tools to filter through that garbage, something we didn't have before. LLMs allow us to view content in a way that we decided, not the content creator. That's extremely powerful and lets us sidesteps a lot of the old methods used to manipulate us.

The risk is more in the LLMs themselves, as whoever gets to control them gets to decide how people are going to experience the world. For the time being I might still double check all the answers I get from ChatGPT, but overtime the LLMs will get better and I'll get more lazy, thus making the LLMs the primary lens through which one views the world.
I think all plans globally involve serious increases in consumption. Otherwise, one is assuming most of the world's population stays in a state of energy poverty.

Copyright is supposed to be public protection in exchange for works entering the public domain.

Copyright is an automatic right (though I understand you still have registration in USA which increases damages available) but should not be applied to DRM works that haven't had DRM-free copies lodged with a government or authority (eg WIPO).

DRM encumbered works cannot ever enter the public domain and so cannot fulfill the requirements for copyright.

This is of course my own personal opinion, unrelated to my employment.
Yes, though there's some things that are somewhat unique where Amazon is competing with open source products. For example, they have to offer MKS, but would rather you use Kinesis, EventBridge, etc. So perhaps less incentive to make Kafka better for everyone.
I guess you can't talk while it is in.
So nothing is changing then
Gaming on Linux for me started getting easy for me around WINE 3.0-ish, when EverQuest (and other MMOs of that time period) started running pretty near flawlessly for me. That's when my Windows XP/7 partition finally died for the last time on my system. Ain't been back to Windows since (other than trying out Windows 10 on a friend's system and instantly remembering why I had learned to hate Windows). Since Steam came to Linux and Valve released Proton, it's all only gotten better by leaps and bounds.
It's probably not so much IP that they care about as IP that gives them some competitive advantage by keeping it secret.

You can probably overstate the degree to which Amazon didn't contribute to and interact with open source communities 5+ years ago (and probably also overstate the degree to which there's been a complete sea change) but, as you say I think it's fair to say there's been a directional shift with more substantive activity in addition to what I'd mostly describe as talking the talk previously.

The industry as a whole has also developed into this incredibly complicated coopetition landscape especially around containers in the past decade.
This is not the case in general, especially with the price renewables will achieve by the time any nuclear plant whose construction was started today could come on line.
Right, you’re paying for the infrastructure to bring the energy to what is essentially a handoff point of a power meter and some bare wires. From there, additional overhead exits to convert those bare wires into a Supercharger location. Beyond the initial costs of building the charging site you will have some non-zero ongoing maintenance costs.

Beyond all that, Supercharger outlets are arguably a business of sorts. Which means it needs to make a profit and not just sell at cost.
Actually, in a hypothetical corporate environment,if you go for the "safer" approach (ALL mails go through the mechanism) the whole stuff would (should) be integrated in the corporate mail server and mails would be analyzed BEFORE reaching the end user mailbox.

For the "other" approach (only analyze the suspect ones submitted manually by the user) it would make more sense (to me) to have a portal (on the intranet) where you upload (safely) the suspect mail, rather than using a mailbox for the service.

I am probably way too old in these times of "cloud everywhere" but if data remains "internal" it should be safer, at least in theory.
Tesla has two problems right now: fewer cars sold despite price cuts and quality issues are finally reaching courts which may also affect their brand image.

Is this a crisis? Too early to say, but nevertheless this all happend while competitors are catching up and latest offerings from German manufacturers looks very promising. There is a very real chance Tesla can loose the luxury EV segment.
You can't just disable this 'feature' from Vodafone? I'm in the UK and my ISP doesn't do this.
