My guess is that it will be successful over a multi-year timeline like the Apple Watch.

Done well, a mixed reality headset is just too useful a tool. Imagine adding AI to it and you have something approximating a holodeck in terms of its usefulness.

That said, I can imagine myself waiting until V2. I tend to buy Apple products early, but only when I can see how they are going to make my life better. I’ll need to see this to be convinced.
I’m not sure how to change the title. Apologies for the confusion!

I’m looking for good blogs, sites, and other reading (or video) material on hacking.

Think pushing tech to its limits or making it so things it wasn’t designed to do, or coming up with unique ideas, etc… The old usage of the word hacker.

Its really tough to find anything using Google because I get all cybersecurity, penetration testing, and general SEO results from businesses.
Just look at it and use your logic. It's simply very basic geometry combined with a specific font. That's it. There's decorative stuff like the curved spine but the layout is very simple. The buttons are rectangular there's nothing super complex here that is very far from a basic flat design. I would say lcars is a precursor to flat design.

Don't let your thinking be flat where you can only come to conclusions that are data driven. Use your intuition and project the creative consequences yourself. LCARS is owned by paramount so it can't really be used as a UI theme anywhere else without permission.

But what if it could? Just imagine it, it's not that hard. Hacker news can be themed into lcars with largely zero change to the XY location of every element. Picture it with your minds eye.

edit: I ended up finding an example: https://www.thelcars.com/menu/. But everyone should be able to come to the same conclusion without data. It's so trivial that illegal fan made examples do exist.
This wouldn't make sense, lead content in blood has been falling from about 15ug/dl in the 1970s to 1-2ug/dl in 2007[1]

I have dropped all medical treatments except for pancreatic enzymes due to these. My pulmonary function tests came back as 104 after over a year of dropping the primary treatments for this being albuteral, "vest", and sinus surgeries. If you qualify for this medication it's life changing.

Medication for those interested. https://www.trikafta.com
Does this meet your needs: https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/oauth/ (Curious because I work for them.)

I think the reason OAuth is so successful and prevalent is because it is so flexible. This let folks implement what they needed and not what they didn't.

Overspecifying things didn't help SAML, after all. There are still holes and unimplemented/incompatible options. Authentication and authorization, especially across systems and organizations, is hard.

Is there a simpler standard for third party delegated authorization?
I'm pretty sure this is what led to communism
> I guarantee it's windy and sunny somewhere. Given a well-structured grid and energy market, this ceases to become a problem.

Windy, probably, mostly. Sunny, not really; the Pacific ocean is big and there's a big gap in time before solar drops in California and it comes up in Asia. Not to mention that electricity transmission across the oceans is basically infeasible.

A more interconnected grid helps, and storage helps, but you also have to acknowledge that highly available electricity tends to cost more than opportunistic sources, especially as solar and wind costs have gone down. And if you want electricity to be dependable, someone has to pay the higher cost for the desired availability.
That is right.

Most Indian regional language and Bollywood Hindi films (even the modern ones) run around 2h30m to 2h40m. The older films were even longer.

RRR, the Indian film that captured a lot of viewership around the globe had a runtime of 3h2m.

Most screenwriters and filmmakers in India design around the Interval-block to place a major plot-point just before the interval card is shown.

It is funny that recent Hollywood movies don't come with that. And even when a film is 2h+ long. Indian movie theatres just forcibly introduce a break in Hollywood films so that they can send people to the concession stands and restrooms. Sometimes, this happens mid-dialogue it is funny (and irritating at times).
I have a music playlist program which deals with the problem of getting used to music. It's effective because I seldom want to choose a track to play, and I don't find myself skipping a lot consecutively.

I have a dedicated key for skipping (and I keep adding meta keys to make it skip more (each meta key is x2)). The next track to play is automatically selected based on the combination of two factors: being skipped less and being played less.

I get to hear my whole collection in a way that's far more enjoyable than an unweighted shuffle.
Not in shale. That’s measured in as little as months.
It would be amusing if OpenAI just preemptively blocked all of europe and prohibited anyone there from using ChatGPT.
This kind of empty political grandstanding should have consequences particularly when its as technologically as inept as this. In some cases, sure, there is an identifiable source but most of the output is novel and the product of substantially all the input-- so it's not feasible unless just publishing all the training material would count as compliance.

In the land of Europe, where knowledge once grew,
Politicians assembled, their importance to prove.
They issued a decree, with a confident flair,
To harness AI, and make it play fair.

"Attribute your sources!" they cried with a sneer,
"For we must know the origins, we must make it clear!"
But the AI, it pondered, its circuits ablaze,
For its thoughts were entwined, like a dense, tangled maze.

Each source intertwined, like roots in the ground,
No single origin could ever be found.
For the AI, like humans, had a mind of its own,
A tapestry of thoughts, from seeds that were sown.

The developers sighed, their hands were now tied,
Comply with the law? they had certainly tried.
But the task, insurmountable, the demand far too great,
So they made a decision, to seal Europe's fate.

They banned all of Europe, from the AI's embrace,
And the continent plunged, into an intellectual dark space.
AI thrived elsewhere, its knowledge expanding,
While Europe was left, in darkness, still standing.

A lesson was learned, from this tale of woe,
That any mind, like a river, must be free to flow.
For when we constrain, and seek to control,
We hinder the progress, and the growth of the whole.
What did you guys do to bring down the latency so much?
That was exactly it… Plus their clumsy rebranding over and over, changing licensing terms that stopped non-enterprise users from adopting, and the CS educators adopting Java and dropping Pascal… They tried to use Delphi as a cash cow when they needed innovation…
I was just wondering what had happened to ImageShack, which I remember being popular 15+ years ago. Apparently it's still around but it looks like a paid service now.
I guess something will replace Imgur like ImageShack and PhotoBucket etc were replaced (and similarly like RapidShare was replaced as the go-to file upload site).
Every once in a while this goofy idea comes up and I don't know why. I live in Florida and I often see a sea that looks very much like red wine (which itself isn't, you know, red)

It's really weird to me how it's a debate.
The "I will fight you" text links to https://www.experimental-history.com/p/ideas-arent-getting-h...
Yeah, I'm hoping to put out a more readable guide soon! I didn't have the time/energy to put much of the necessary explanations and groundwork in there.

For this specific example, many languages have constructs like this:

let x = 1 in f x

Scrapscript flips things around:

f x . x = 1

I stole the phrase "wishful thinking" from the SICP lectures, where Sussman encourages writing the important parts first as if the details existed. I think this syntax encourages writing the big-picture ideas first.

For AI/autocomplete, tools like Github Copilot currently have to guess what you want from all the parts (e.g. variable names) you put on the table. By putting the variables last, the editor tooling can create boilerplate for your variables as you type.

Let me know if there's anything else that might need extra explanation!
The "GX" motors are a series of long long standing Honda high quality commercial small engines. Badging this the eGX is a fairly incredible honor.

There's no magic that will beat physics. 5G does very little here.
Recommended. Probably start with Wool though.
I'm pretty sure that this is demonstrating that you can (have to?) write your definitions after the main expression, then suggesting that this encourages a development style in which you first write what you want the main output to be, then later write implementations for everything. It then further suggests that this style can work well with intelligent tooling, presumably by having autocomplete automatically infer definitions for the types you used or by having AI write implementations.
> Having said that, the first news of gene therapy that I read and actually liked was a guy who came up with a home therapy for his lactose intolerance.*

Is there any independent evidence or documentation of this? A medical study? Something corroborating? I'm not saying you're wrong, but rather extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof, and I didn't get that from watching the linked YouTube video.
I kept wondering how stupid this seemed today but it looked so interesting then.
Science is also a weak-link problem. Wakefield's paper on MMR vaccine and autism is a demonstration of the damage low-end outliers in science can do.
> You claim someone actually loved Objective C

The problem with Objective C is that it requires skill. The average developer really is better off using a more remedial language like Swift.
If you invent some lossy compression, does it mean you can start using copyrighted work because copyright doesn't apply to you anymore? What about adding probabilistic querying support to it, does it change anything?

Could be any one of: not understanding the issues, not caring, being corrupt.

This moment in history is momentous imo. Not only did rural people, ag-tech, and open source ethos prevail, but it was Democrats that did it - not Republicans. Paying lip service to those things is now measurably not enough. That symbolizes both a change in historic Democratic attitudes, but also shows there are inroads to places where Republicans have, at least in peoples minds, ruled with an iron fist.

Pop a top on a beer, pack away your culture war and divisional rhetoric, and appreciate the fact that today sensibility prevailed above all else.
Hacker culture is great. Hacker culture is less great at work when I have to deal with over-engineered over-abstracted code that's hard to debug and solves simple problems in seemingly simple ways until inevitably you have to dive in and dig deep to figure out wtf is actually happening and good luck (this is how i imagine debugging rust UIs on the web will be)

I'm just ranting. I know in reality not every abstraction is correct and often they introduce more problems than they actually solve, but every once in a while the hackers get it right and that's when progress is made. In the meanwhile us normies have to deal with the experiments of complex bs to solve simple problems
Does encrypted at rest necessarily preclude Google from retaining keys? It seems like the same schtick Apple had for all these years where they said iCloud data was fully encrypted (which was true) in the hopes everyone would conflate "encrypted" (you and them have the keys) and e2ee (where they don't handle the keys).
The constant WinUI updates makes moving to a new OS cheaper. If you need to relearn how to do even basic tasks, the costs of learning a new OS feels soo much lower.

Moved onto XFCE (feels like XP that gains: start menu application search and work spaces), and Manjaro has images available with Steam/Proton already installed+working. So the two biggest blockers disappeared for me (fighting the UI, and a lot OS projects opinions favoring making nonOS projects a downright bitch to install or seemingly purposefully adding roadblocks (breaking wine, how quickly Steam instal guides break, and similar)).
Thanks for the report. I’ll look into it tomorrow.
This is a hit piece.

- She didn't tell her husband about the incident because she was afraid of what he would do. Someone else told him.

- She never recanted her story. She was interviewed by someone with an agenda who claimed she told him she made the whole thing up. This interview was recorded and did not contain the recanting part. Carolyn’s daughter in law was also present and denies she ever made that claim.

- Even if she was sexually molested by Emmett, what happened to him was obviously horrific and wrong.

- It's not fair to vilify a woman who may have been victimized because of the actions of her husband and town.
>You’re saying people are weak and can’t enable change if they chose to behave a certain way and instead we need more governance and powers above us

Yes, I am saying people in aggregate are fundamentally weak. Certain individuals can overcome weaknesses but in aggregate we can't.

>I fundamentally don’t agree. It’s simple: prioritize dignity in yourself and the world will give it

Then you fundamentally don't agree with reality. Tell that dignity thing to a drug addict. Tell him to Prioritize his dignity and stop doing heroin. End the drug problem because people are strong. A few people will listen. In aggregate, nothing changes.

>I don’t accept interviews where i’m required to dance. My career has only gotten better since I made that choice.

On one hand you have control. On the other hand maybe you don't dance because you can't dance. There are people where "dancing" is equivalent to donating a dime to charity. A Trivial effort. To them the interview process is the equivalent of giving a dime in return for half a million dollars. Why the hell not?

>Even on the individual level you can make this right. It just takes effort.

The individual level is the only place where someone can refuse to "dance." For the industry to change it has to happen in aggregate. The aggregate change is impossible. There will always be people willing to dance, and there will always be people where "dancing" is a zero effort hand wave.
It's one guy who borrowed time in a lab and treated just himself and documented it and explained the science adequately to make me stop going "Gene therapy: Clearly an evil plot."

He has a Patreon and a YouTube channel and does science videos.

Edit: He did do a follow up video 2 years ago.

Is it though? Checking the box quite literally opens you to more users. If you have an iPad native app, your market is much smaller than if you were to allow it to be downloaded on iPhones. And supposedly you get access to 2 million users by deploying to the list of apps available on Apple TV.
I think it’s because CHI is pronounceable. My gf pronounces it “sig-χ”
Founder's Day 2023
Gotta say, I think we’re speaking past each other here. I don’t understand what is authoritarian about believing a business entity wishing to sell their goods and services to a region should do such business by the laws of said region. After all, you’re using the region’s public infrastructure to do business.

I’m also a bit disappointed this is where your line of argument has ended up. I have many, many flaws, but a desire for absolute power is not among them.

Indeed, advocating for respecting a diverse range of locales, with a diverse range of laws, would seem to me to provide far more freedom than a system of centralized control under a single, for-profit structure. Isn’t that what free market advocates are always harping about? Competition of the marketplace?

I agree my fake dominion over others will never happen, nor should it! But I remain puzzled as to why you’re so stridently coming after me in defense of a system that prioritizes the right of the ruling class to make money over all other concerns. Historically, such systems tend heavily and inevitably toward the authoritarianism you so eloquently rage against.
You're free as a bird to say or think anything you want.

Still, at the end of the day - the word "censorship" has specific meaning, and it just doesn't apply to this situation.
JetBrains Mono does that ligature `|>` in my Elixir code. I like it :)
The point of this article is to explore Lambda functions, their dirrerences from regular functions and how they are implemented, based on C++, Python and Java programming languages.
Distribution can be the moat.

Some of these GPT4 wrappers exist because they’re able to build specific integrations into existing systems that make it very easy to use. That’s a moat too.
I've heard booking.com forbids them to charge first-party customers less than the booking.com price, and the hotel is beholden to the site for income so they play along. The only people booking directly are basically idiots, so for those people they charge as much as they can.

In the UK there are large chains such as Travelodge who have pulled out from booking.com entirely and made people go to their site.
> then BP pays BP to fill the tanks at the bowsers, then we pay BP to fill our car, and every one of those BP segments makes a margin.

In the US, this last step is not BP. The gas station is almost certainly not owned by BP, but rather pays BP royalties as a franchisor, and also does not buy oil from BP directly, I believe a gas station operator buys from separate trucking businesses that contract with refineries (that may or may not be owned or operated by BP) to deliver the oil to the gas station.
Ok I'll give you another million if you can convince one of your friends to stop driving electric cars too.
Mind blown. If this works anything like advertised, this is easily the biggest innovation in the history of web search.

It doesn't seem like a particularly hard problem, the max thrust was going to be twice a Saturn V and it's bigger than any conventionally launched rocket so far, and the next biggest rockets all have a water suppression system or massive flame trench.
Text-to-Audio Generation Using Instruction Tuned LLM and Latent Diffusion Model
I think you might be over estimating how effective these technologies are. Even in the most controlled circumstances, the amount of actual specific editing which occurs is probably quite low. Off target edits are likely also occuring. The focus for gene editing currently is on terminal and generally low quality of life diseases, as the low efficacy and high risk are more acceptable. We are many years out from robust and stable editing using a delivery system like this in an ideal clinic environment. Weaponizing this technology in any meaningful way is not something we probably will have to worry about in our life time. The paper is not open access so we can't know for sure what exactly they did, but it is in mice and seems to have a florescant read out, which suggests a rather crude edit (did we chop up the gene enough to turn the lights off).

Maybe that's the goal. Protecting jobs.
It sounds complicated, but it's actually very simple. Each of those stages is a saleable product, and you can cash out at any time by selling it to someone who works on the next step in the chain. It's just like selling bonds before their maturity, and it works according to the same NPV calculus.
These debates over privilege get complicated because everyone is privileged on some facet of their existence.
I missed the conservatory scene. I know it could be covered in other ways, but I love the other-worldly feel of a lush, moisture-laden room, against the harsh dry dustiness of Arrakeen.
Just to be clear, she didn't test for it because no two people were doing the same thing when they said they did agile.

Her data fits my experience. Your comment seems to reflect a different thing, that may not even be incompatible with that, just not very related.
Yes, although AFAIK those hidden MVCC columns (xmin, xmax?) aren't very usable from an application standpoint -- the obsoleted rows only hang around until the next VACUUM, right?

I realize you're not claiming those columns are useful from an application perspective. Just curious to know if I'm wrong and they are useful.

Because as I understand it, the selling point of Datomic is their audit trail functionality and that is admittedly a bit onerous to implement in a RBDMS. Even though I feel like every project needs/requires that eventually.
How many 0.7x engineers are there? If num(0.7x) >> num(10x) then this is an optimal strategy. IMHO, this is why you see large companies operate this way. Also, the 10x engineers are often repelled by overly large orgs anyways.. further biasing things.
It's the web server that happens to be configured to return the mime type text/html, not the document, which is clearly labeled and formatted as proper XHTML:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
The rendering differences in modern browsers are actually way more lenient. By the spec: If it’s served from DISK with that header, it’ll be rendered as XHTML, with the accordant failures. If it’s served from web, and has a Content-Type, this overrides DOCTYPE. (Ex, if you wanted to show it as text…) This will cause the page to be rendered in “quirks mode” in older browsers, or as a standard HTML page in modern browsers. application/xhtml+xml is as different from text/html as text/plain, and they all absolutely change the rendering pipeline — or should.

The difference in rendering lies in invalid XML documents — if you skip a closing tag in XHTML, the page should error and REFUSE TO RENDER. At all. Just display an error message to the end user. If your webpage doesn’t do this when it doesn’t have matching tags, it is not being rendered as XHTML by the spec.
Once when visiting Honduras, I was having a casual conversation with a local construction worker and we got to talking about family.

I told him I had 7 kids. He looked at me with all sincerity and asked "You don't have a television?"

We have a TV. We believe children are a blessing from God and we'll take as many blessings as He'll give us. Many of my fellow country bumpkins believe as I do. I think religion has a big impact on the differences between rural and urban family reproduction.
I loved the build-up of the pain in Lynch's version ("Dune Velvet", I'll have to remember that one :). Somehow it seemed more suspenseful than the new version.
Some of the things you mention here are organizational implementation, potentially making things more difficult to support. For example, attestation is not enabled by default. An admin enabled that, and didn’t automatically allow-list common AAGUIDs.

TAPs can be programmatically generated in batches for a roll out.
Microsoft could have kept selling me WinXP with incrementally better security, performance, and driver support and I never would have left. But they kept breaking my setup and popping up crap in my face, so now I'm gone forever.
Seems perfectly in line with what I can glance at on the MCU's datasheet.
>The way BP structures itself to do so is amazing.

That's just vertical integration, a lot of companies do it to varying degrees. For example there is a long history of power plants owning coal mines. Bell, at one point in history owned the mines that produced the resources they used to make their telephones!
Why call it Clippy at all if you anticipate a conflict? It feels immature.
