Higher end phone cameras have both of these for many years. Also, any of Apple's stuff (and many Android phones, as well) support shooting in RAW, so you can use the usual DSLR flow of processing RAW photos to get the white balance you desire in post.

Usually these settings are hidden or abstracted. iPhones just call it 'exposure' and it's similar to DSLR EV +/-2.0 adjustment. I believe fancier camera apps that work on iPhones can support explicit exposure time, as well, though.
Clearly Parliament is sovereign, and Parliament is elected, therefore the UK is a democracy. And it's been so for nearly 400 years. Not that any of that guarantees that the UK is a "good democracy", but a democracy it is.
Augh, you're right. Thank-you.

The Unbearable Heaviness of Being Positioned
Mere existence of a test runner is infinitesimal compared to your proposed careful testing. Saying this as someone who wrote my own test runner, it's a few lines of code.
because it comes from the motherboard and will reinstall every time i reboot. I have deleted it before, renamed it and more but nothing helped unless i revoked its privileges.

Or differently said, modern asus motherboards actively come with a rootkit.
Phone cameras are a special category. Sure there are digital cameras that can do it. But low-profile low-power miniaturized camera sensors?
Yeah, partly why I think you need something like Urbit’s ID system to counter spam.

Though I’m biased and just generally like the urbit approach more.
I'm not sure I understood by "you don't share terms of the deal". Judging by the rest of your comment are you suggesting that I try to get them to let me run the business first, then provide payment once I've taken over?
If we get paid half as much, but there’s still the same amount of stuff being made, how’s that all supposed to work out?

In any case, I bet lots of people would take less pay in exchange for almost twice as much time to spend with their friends and loved ones.
It works fine for IPython.
Wow. This website is completely unbearable without an adblocker. Clickbait and Autoplay videos everywhere.
while i completely agree with you, your information will still end up in some database unless you actually do click to opt out
In practice, no. Key loggers are a minuscule threat to account security compared to weak passwords and password reuse.

But lets say you are in fact a user that gets targeted by an adversary capable of deploying a key logger against you. Does TOTP protect you? No! If you are compromised to that point, the attacker is also in a position to just hijack your sessions.

There isn't a threat model out there that is trying to solve the problem of "my end user device has been compromised but I still want to be able to use it to access sensitive systems without those systems being compromised."
The competition (in Apple’s eyes and I agree with it because of how shady some of these companies are that want to make launchers for all their apps) isn’t about apps in the App Store. It’s the competition of being an App Store in itself compared to Google, Amazon, etc. If you read it with that lens, the line makes a lot more sense.
Why make this so difficult? Just ban personally targeted advertising. That's what everyone is really trying to achieve. Nobody really cares about any individual's personal data beyond using it to try to sell him something. Ban using it for advertising and it becomes worth less than the cost of collecting and storing it.

Sites can just go back to content-based targeting for ads.
Isn't this the reason why people recommend using the flatpak version of Steam ?
FWIW some years ago Salvatore Sanfilippo (antirez) wrote Lamernews [0][1] with the goal to create such a clone. AFAIK Lamernews, as a site, is long gone, but the code -Ruby, Sinatra, Redis- is still there.

There have also been some forks. EchoJS [2] made a few modifications through the years and is running still today. Mostly about moderation and some related tasks like blacklisting and others. Can't say much about pros/cons but at least it's still used and somewhat maintained.

Oh okey, that's clears it up for me!
Orangutans and apes use large leaves and other materials as protective "clothing", e.g. to keep themselves dry in rain.

But they don't make clothing, they repurpose found objects.

Isn't that... just entropy? At least, the default settings. Like... that's almost what I see (on the website it is greatly exaggerated). I see it because physically, light literally doesn't take the same path twice. Exact same reasons why path tracers take a long time to converge.

I can see solid colors and make out shapes (even very small shapes) easily. Nothing is obscured. The noise isn't obnoxious or distracting or annoying. Neurologically I smooth it out and perceive a world without noise. But it's there.

I would be more surprised if this is not a thing that happens to everyone. If someone can look at a surface, and see a completely solid color, with no sign of noise at all ever. With no entropy or anything. Completely and totally static and unchanging.
No.

> The publication also wrote that "deteriorating street conditions around drug use," as well as "crime near the grocery store," were the cited reasons for its temporary closure.

So you’re arguing that “high theft”, while being the stated reason that the store cut its hours last October, wasn’t specifically mentioned using those exact words in this store closing, and so that’s a victory? Even tho the stated reasons were “deteriorating street conditions around drug use” and “crime near the grocery store”?

Lmao guess you showed those SF haters!
Oh, that's nice. explorer.exe crashing and taking out the taskbar is common enough for me to just sigh when it happens (and then launch the task manager via ctrl+shift+esc). I'm not sure if that's a Windows issue, or corporate malware issue, but maybe that'd mitigate it.
> Are we assuming 1Password is lying about anonymisation?

I wouldn't put it that way. Rather, I'd say that you shouldn't assume something is true just because a company claims it is. Especially when that thing can have a material effect on their profit margin.
We live in the era of smart toasters. You'll need to use your 2FA tool before you can blow someone up with it, which kind of defeats the point when chased by a ninja that's after your 2FA tool.
a) Apple was part of the working party for WebGPU.

I really don't think that's necessary. So far there has never been a lack of people willing to commit atrocities when ordered to under the right conditions.
Just found this on Reddit; I'm not a big algotrading guy but I'll check the project out.
We're 100% remote and this is absolutely key. You need to be deliberate about designing your operational processes around remote work. That means when you onboard someone you don't just dump them in a slack account and tell them to follow a doc. You pair them with someone until they're ramped up.
If by GDPR you mean the cookie banner that appears on most websites? It's as if we ask for something and are punished for it. I'd like to see some proof that GDPR has achieved major changes in data privacy before a copy-paste.

The market will always look to extract the highest possible price from the consumer.

Strange how "cheaper overall" fantasy is "consumer energy prices have quintupled in the past few years" in reality
I love the iPhone camera but photos still seem super processed compared to an actual camera body. Plus big camera lens have a lot of character in the bokeh and focus that a tiny phone lens/sensor can't capture. It's nice that people will have increasingly good cameras in their pockets, but Sony (who capitalized on great blogging cameras) and Fujifilm (who capitalized on fun bodies with good film simulation that everybody was already applying in post-processing paired with the expertise of a company who built satellite optics) will be fine. Canon seems to gotten to the mirrorless era a little later than the others and not doing as hot as they used to, but it's not clear that's entirely the fault of iPhone cameras getting better.
Oh I thought you meant those usb devices that need to be set up, like google titan and similar.
Apple intentionally sabotages iOS safari to stop you from doing this.
On top of getting slapped with a judgment for their own exploitative practices. Lots of poor decision making going on at Epic, well deserved decisions all around.
>Either way, gaining half an hour to an hour of productivity

He gained more than that. what he was saying was that no experience might have made the ordeal 3 or 3 and a half hours instead, still a good deal less than the time he originally spent.

>I'm pushing against what I see as unwarranted hype.

You are hardly equipped to say what is and isn't unwarranted hype for anybody but yourself. It's rather obnoxious to try and impose whatever you think on people giving their personal experiences. No one asked you to pushback on anything so don't. If it's not as useful as you say, then it'll become readily apparent.

>We're hearing breathless reports by both clueless journalists and by seasoned professionals who are using these tools from the perspective of someone with years of experience

There are many giving similar reports without any/little experience at all.

>you ask GPT4 to produce code for non-trivial examples, you need to already have the expertise in that domain to evaluate whether that output is correct, efficient, and error-free.

No you don't. Code is code. It runs as intended or it doesn't and it's extremely easy to see if it runs as intended.

It's more useful if you have experience certainly but that's it.
Well, I can see how that means well, but this doesn't scale to dozens of other jurisdictions doing the same thing. The audits would have to either be cheap and toothless or impossibly expensive, or, given the dozens of jurisdictions eventually doing these, probably both and other combinations besides. One can only imagine the nightmare of this jurisdiction deciding this bit of data is private, some other jurisdiction deciding it's mandatory to keep (e.g., "you must record this user's legal identity in order to ensure that future data you may receive is also deleted"), and yet a third jurisdiction deciding that it must be deleted but if and only if the user explicitly asks for it in the request. It won't take much for (real) compliance to exceed what even the big tech companies could afford.

At least something like the EU legislating this covers a significant fraction of the world economy in one go.
I made a big mistake when I was a young man. Back in the early 1980's you could get a contractors license by just passing a test. I thought maybe I should get one. Being dumb and young never did.

Now you need to work for four years under a licensed contractor to get a license.

If I hadn't been young and stupid I'd have a contractors license and be able to legally pull permits.
Well, since you evidently never played SimCity 2000...

I agree that store closures are not due to shoplifting.

But merchandise being closed off behind locked doors? That is definitely due to shoplifting.
You may be thinking of malloc. Memory allocated by alloca is allocated on the stack, so it lives until the end of the stack frame.

And the difference between 'char buf[size]' and 'char *buf = alloca(size)' isn't significant enough to put the two in separate paradigms IMO, just slightly different ways of writing the same thing.
One popular (and somewhat successful) legislative strategy is to create a 'private right of action' whereby an injured party can sue an offending one easily by meeting a specific burden of proof - eg if you file a complaint with a data broker and the data is not removed within a defined reasonable period, you can go to court armed with a rebuttable presumption of the broker's liability and claim some statutorily specified amount of compensation. A well-known example would be violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
> They don't use it to build applications because you make your own design system for applications.

Some examples of SaaS companies that use Tailwind on the application side are PlanetScale, Fly.io, Lemon Squeezy, and Supabase.
I meant the UI; NT4 and 2000 were the nice and clean ones, for enterprise and professionals; ME had already first signs of the cartoon world, that XP continued on.

Looking back at the comment, yes, you are right. Both lines could share under the hood stuff, the NT/2000 line with clean UI and the ME line the colorized cartoon one. Or, they could split the line with Home and Pro, both of them they still have.
'Cause you can have as many clone of the last en vogue game without any problem. So, competition. Not a very positive one, but still :\
Yep, I’ve been using Authy for years because of this. Before that, I would have a second phone with GAuthenticator on it and when I scanned the QR code to set up a new account, I would do it with both phones simultaneously to make sure I had a backup. It always struck me as absolutely ridiculous.
Same holds for negative numbers. There are no negative quantities in physics, negative numbers as quantities only appear if you order your equations wrong. (And one can argue against the other appearances of negative numbers and minus signs.)
> Sanctuary cities have shown that the state/local governments partially override the federal government on an overall basis

No, they don’t.

Sanctuary cities are not sanctuaries from the federal law the “sanctuary” status references, merely ones where the city has prohibited public resources from being used to provide extra, nonmandatory, help to the feds.

“Not actively helping” isn’t “overriding”.
Answer from Snapchat My AI: Mix baking soda and water into a paste, then use it to scrub the wax off.
i saw some youtube advertisements for a service that requests data deletion on your behalf, but i was super skeptical of that because it just seems like the service you're paying to do this would then become the next centralized hub of what information of yours once existed.

I don't mind the idea of a government-based interface to all of this with strict adherence to privacy
> monopoly on iOS?

Way to drill that category all the way down to IOS to ensure that you're able to use that "monopoly" keyword.

The deli that's in my complex has a monopoly on buying and obtaining wine if i don't want to drive anywhere or use a phone to order some via some delivery app.

Only those who are paid well. For the majority of people in the US, this isn't true. Halving their income is an existential crisis.
its nice to know I'll have the option of having a good enough camera in my pocket for when I leave the mirrorless at home but there's no comparison. even an apsc sensor is bigger than this and sensor and thats going to give it a huge advantage from a PHYSICS perspective. digital bokeh are getting better every year but there's still nothing like a natural bokeh.
all my bluetooth devices works horrible with a huge lag on M1 16.
After using Nostr a bit, I don't think there's a huge difference between SSB and it except that Nostr has no blob sync and they abandoned append-only logs and use different signing key cryptography.

Scuttlebutt just suffers from an inaccessible implementation at the moment, but there is a team coming together to make a working implementation again.
It's not "your" IP address, it's DigitalOcean's IP address. And DigitalOcean is unwilling or unable to police their IP address space, so you've been lumped in with the other bad actors inside 45.55.0.0/16.

There are lots of hosting providers that actually respond to abuse reports, and thus have good email deliverability. DigitalOcean isn't one of them. (I say this as someone who has repeatedly reported spam and malware C&C to them, and AFAIK those reports went to /dev/null.)
Apple is a monopoly... on their own platform. Which by itself is not convincing, legally, at all. Sony has a monopoly on PlayStation games, Xbox has a monopoly on Xbox games, Nintendo has a monopoly on Nintendo games, Apple has a monopoly on iOS apps. What's to separate Apple from the game consoles? Legally, there is no such thing as a "general purpose computing device" despite the myths - they are legally in the exact same bucket. Just because a device can do more or less than another device (a game console versus a phone), or just because a device is subsidized by the apps (a game console, whereas iOS doesn't have that), doesn't change the status of it legally.

Would you say that PlayStation is a monopoly? Probably not - you know they are competing with Xbox and Nintendo. Apple makes the same argument and legally it has held up - they are competing with Android and Windows and Amazon. You don't have to like the competition from Android or Amazon, but legally, there's competition and that's all that matters. At least for right now.

This comment raised a whole bunch of red flags for me.

Fist and foremost: Saying that something is like an email server translates for me into "this is an under- and over-specified swamp at the same time, full of quirks, and actually not implementable in any reasonable way". Because that's what email is. I almost can't think of a greater horror than writing an email server from scratch…

I don't know enough about ActivityPub to judge whether it's really like email. I would strongly hope it isn't, as otherwise it would be a tech you should probably better never touch as a developer.

The next thing is: If an ActivityPub server only receives and sends some opaque BLOBs what's the whole point of it?

But when it's not about opaque BLOBs you need to map the structures in the spec to proper types in a statically typed languages as you can't manipulate them otherwise in any meaningful way. If it's not possible to do that because the spec is vague and/or there is no coherent data model behind it that would be just another reason to not touch this tech. Nobody needs the next underspecified, stringly-typed "email".

I really hope I'm reading this wrong!

As someone who worked in transcription last year I would say the biggest reason for transcription job losses in the West is competition from India where English speakers are willing to do transcription for a fraction of the cost.

Fully automatic transcription by AI is a very, very hard problem, based on my experience of many of the jobs I got*. The automatic transcription makes the work 10X easier now though by applying a first pass that gets you 90% of the way and then humans like me come in and fix it all up.

* One hard example was a motorcross race commentary where it was necessary to know which riders the commentators were referring to based on their amusing and sarcastic comments, the nicknames of the riders, and deal with the fact the audio was 99% revving engines.
Bought full license some time in 2014. Watched them disintegrate into subscription hell while making the apps worse. Moved everything to Firefox and Apple Passkeys. They integrate better with my workflow anyway.

Those dating apps are still on the App Store though. How would Apple "come after" an app they're not hosting?
Haha this comment immediately made me think of you, and here you are.
Yes, and as a result people might consume a little less than they did before and that will help the climate as a nice side-effect.

I guess we'll get a ban on personally targeted advertising when Chinese companies start buying data brokerage firms in the U.S.
The blinking would have been because Apple does make a ton of money in the App Store. So it would have been cheaper for them, hypothetically, to pay off Epic to go away or to make some nonsense carve-out in their TOS that was hyper-focused on allowing Fortnite to work while excluding all other stores-in-stores than to risk the Courts would say "Hmmm..... Y'know..... The way you run your store looks... a lot like a monopoly. Maybe you can't run it like that anymore. In fact... Maybe you can't run it at all. Maybe no company that makes the hardware also gets to dictate the software that runs on that hardware exclusively. How about we give you, oh, six months to divest the App Store into a separate company and re-tool the iPhone OS to allow loading multiple stores?"

Perhaps not a likely scenario, but US law is highly path-dependent and at the end of the day, judges' interpretations of law and precedent are all that matters regarding the correctness of a court decision.

I guess the question is would an elected head of state mean more lobbying from more corrupt people.
