That might have been some fake news that worked itself into my brain. Politfact says it's mostly false [1] and that McDonald's doesn't use prison labor in its franchises but did at one point contract out the manufacturing of their uniforms to a company that used prison labor.

Although according to the ACLU [2], prisoners are used in McDonald's supply chain and in restitution centers in Mississippi (which is very different from Holmes' federal case, mind):

> Mississippi is the only state that still uses restitution centers to lock people up for an indefinite period of time while they work for private employers to earn money to pay off court-ordered debts. Hundreds of people a year are sentenced to be confined in Mississippi’s restitution centers, where they are required to stay until they pay off court fees, fines, and restitution. Workers are required to pay for room and board, transportation to their jobs, and medical care costs. They work slaughtering chickens, cutting catfish at processing plants, at Popeyes and McDonald’s franchises, and for auto mechanic shops, furniture companies, and meatpacking plants....

> ... Taylor Farms, North America’s largest supplier of salads and fresh-cut vegetables, paid over $2.2 million to Arizona’s prison industries program for labor contracts to employ incarcerated workers to cut and package fruit and vegetables for the company.371 Taylor Farms supplies some of the nation’s biggest fast food and grocery chains, including Chipotle, Costco, Kroger, McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, Ralphs, Safeway, Subway, Target, Walmart, and Whole Foods Market.

That's a hell of a list though. Costco, Kroger, Target, Walmart, and Whole Foods basically covers every consumer in the country

But also, if you're just making two API calls (the use case for Linen) which are using JSON, you can get both request making and json parsing pretty much out-of-the-box without doing anything, web browsers JS API ships with this by default, window.fetch and response.json(), no "building your own HTTP client" required :)

You need to have two calls at least, generate a signed URL and then actually uploading it. How many lines on the client would you guess that requires? My guess is less than 30, and you cover 100% of your use case without putting in any 3rd party code what so ever. Sounds like a solid win with few drawbacks.
Although a political disaster, France's pension reform did not happen out of the blue. The country is facing a real demographics disaster and milking a few extra years out of their working age population will not be enough to head off the problem that they are simply not going to have economic productivity to support their population comfortably.
I'm still salty about how keycloak changed their openid logout behavior, removed the old behavior in the new version when there are still a lot of oidc clients out there that still expect the old behavior. I have two inatances of keycloak using the same version and somehow both have different iodc logout behaviors. I think it's due to one instance was upgraded from older version and inherited the old behavior, but I can't get the other instance to use the old behavior (the flag mentioned in the docs didn't work) unless I downgrade the version first.
Sure, but you have to already know what the voice command is to turn on the seat heater and reproduce that every time, versus being able to look around and just... see an appropriate button.

And that's before getting into the mess of misheard commands that even Google and Apple still can't get right despite having gigantic teams working on it 24/7.
Really we need a menu of stains. But wine rings + coffee rings are a good start.

> MongoDB gained traction not because it's an alternative to MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Honestly I think it only gained traction because many Node devs refused to learn SQL and the document model is familiar because it's closer to JSON data.

These days Mongo is good but that wasn't the case back 10+ years ago.

Another factor besides performance vs earlier versions of Postgres (they're now more at parity) was Postgres didn't come with replication included. I think that was a big hinderance for adoption during the LAMP stack's hey day.
> Society is not structured to encourage this.

I wish more people understood this and the value that it would add to society. For some reason most people understand how roads and transit improve commerce, but fail to understand how education and social support for the individual does as well.
Replication came later - but the fact that you could do

sudo apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
sudo -i mysql

and be logged in as admin into mysql database was indeed a huge reason for defaulting to it.

EDIT: Of course, at that time, there was no Ubuntu teaching everyone to sudo all the time, so drop all instances of sudo and add a su - at start ;)

That surprises me. I seem to recall having read something about the difficulty Tesla had in getting their fancy screens and how much they cost. $50 for a tiny one maybe.

That means single device users are in for a bad time if they lose their device.
Why do everybody treat Call of Duty like some sort of universal constant, even Microsoft, Sony and Activision? Does no one realize this is an artistic franchise that could be in a very different place in ten years?

It's as if someone was saying they were unfair because Disney refuses to release Star Wars to movie theaters. It changed into a bunch of TV shows, it went in a different direction!
Bard uses a smaller model currently, which was announced before release.

> We’re releasing it initially with our lightweight model version of LaMDA. This much smaller model requires significantly less computing power, enabling us to scale to more users, allowing for more feedback. [1]

> Bard is powered by a research large language model (LLM), specifically a lightweight and optimized version of LaMDA, and will be updated with newer, more capable models over time. [2]

Honestly, at the time when LAMP was gaining the userbase, said userbase for considerable portion did not care about replication because there was only one server they had.

Replication was something you did when you got succesful enough to have it, or were a MSP providing it at premium to others.
Also, with a physical control, I find that I can glance over to locate the control, return my eyes to the road, then reach over blindly to touch it. That doesn't work with a touchscreen at all.
Having designed electronics, I absolutely appreciate how much a pain in the butt buttons are (maybe that's why they are called buttons!). It isn't just the cost... Each button requires mechanical design and tooling, graphics, manufacturing, etc etc. Plus no one is ever satisfied with the "feel" or tactical properties.

But as a driver I absolutely hate touchscreens!

Funniest button story.. one time we were working on a panel which includes a two way rocker switch to lift or lower a mechanism. Version 1 was backwards. Well, the electrical team swapped the wire harness to fix it, and the graphics team swapped the label markings. Version 2 was then also backwards (but flipped).
I don't think that's true at all & I would greatly welcome some collected evidence to change my mind. I did some of my own searching to try to find evidence for your assertions & haven't turned up anything.

Looking at intra-state policies shows a malice & cruelty within Red states, to defund & desupport public institutions. Texas ending professorial tenure there-by effectively ending the state's public colleges viability, the bitter long resistance to Obamacare & public pools, poor support for public transit, hostile & useless unemployment insurance programs; I dunno it just seems like the states that are red have extremist anti-human policies.

That doesn't affect your statement that the national level has seen outflows from red states. I don't know of any evidence that that is the case. I think it's somewhat common & known knowledge that red states tend to receive radically disproportionate shares of federal funding in general. Some of this is just logistics, that red states are less populated generally, and require more support to maintain services like roads, power, etc cetera.

I think a lot of people want everyone in America to succeed. A lot of people want inclusive America, that succeeds & tries & works together to better the economic, spiritual, & libertous nature of our nation. I don't think the zero sum view represents both sides at all. Progressive agenda is not to take. It's to help those in need. But that hand keeps being snipped at & chewed on, by the red states needing the most assistance often. States unwilling to try to govern.
> Except that the counter can be adjusted by users.

So? You've changed the program, and now it's valid. (as my handle suggests) I was a math major: arbitrarily large but finite is a different category than infinite, and that makes all the difference in the world.

> his sounds exactly like a special calling technique mentioned in the function colors post.

No, but the seam between async and sync in most other implementations requires writing an entire event loop. In this case it's often a single keyword, six characters. At worst, you write an extra function header to wrap it.

It's not the extraness that matters, it's the pain of doing so. Hell, even go requires you write "go" in front of your function to run it asynchronously, and I don't think that this counts as "colored functions".
Maybe that was just due to the supply shortage?
> Many of us have a strong sense that the future of ML involves models built by large teams in industry environments

The gradient of current moment is that whatever approach is optimized to use more data and more compute is much easier to invest in than something which can do more with less, but with a significant number of possible dead-ends.

At some point, this will have diminishing returns, but until that is hit, this makes sense as a purely return-on-investment for both research progress and business returns.
I use it; it is indeed awesome, although the “powerful” version of the query DSL can be intimidating (I implemented some complex-ish regex transformations to utilize it).

It’s fantastic having 1 less dependency though!

One caveat- if you migrate any field in the indexed table, you will likely have to drop and recreate all your triggers and stored procs again

I'm disappointed that your comment has gotten downvoted. Hard to see why it should be, since it's just your opinion, and you even backed it up with a reason.

Stats were given for HBO, which appears to have roughly 1/3 of the penetration — not exactly close. Amazon is the only competitor with more than 40% Netflix's installed base.
Loss of autonomy should receive a lot of weight when evaluating a punishment.

Like if our goal is to actually build a better society, prison shouldn't be a lot worse than loss of autonomy. If you are going to release someone, do you want them to be in a worse state when you do that than when you took away their autonomy?

Of course we are collectively deranged, so oh well.
Nobody should ever use a debit card.
Well if that's so beneficial to farmers I'm sure we will hear them loudly protesting because they want it back. I don't hear anything.
>If NFLX said "we're going to start charging rich people more, based on zip code," there would be a revolt.

Not in the poor houses, and the rich ones would pay anyway because they're rich and price inelastic.

So I doubt there'd be a revolt.
I never liked voice recognition until I had to test it myself at my job, and seen firsthand just how much better it has gotten over the past few years.

I think voice commands would be much more widely used if they hadn’t rolled it out so soon, ironically. But most of us learned early on that it sucks and never tried it again.
> Also it's pretty clear that even the $20 is highly subsidized.

This isn't the case. There's a podcast (somewhere? I thought it was a Lex one but I can't find it) where someone from open AI went into some depth about the economics.
I love my touchscreen. It’s so much better than the knobs in my old car.
Isn't this subject to the sort of argument that Lincoln used in his Cooper Union speech? The signers and drafters of the Constitution mostly came from states that taxed property. They ruled out a federal property tax, it is true.
Ehhh, no. Even inside google TF2 migration was a total disaster and is still ongoing :)
LTT has repeatedly said that overclocking under normal circumstances has been worth less and less as GPUs and CPUs have been increasingly built to ride thermal and power limits at stock. And that overclocking can even hurt performance by disabling that behavior.
I counted the buttons within reach while waiting at a long stoplight once. Was up to 55 when the light turned green.

Imagine applying that same line of logic to any other kind of safety. "Airbags are pointless, just don't crash"

The reality is that all programmers are insecure programmers. The ones arrogant enough to think they are not insecure are the most dangerous.
Why is it overkill for phones? I spend way more time looking at my phone than I ever look at my car's AC controls. Ofc, my car's AC controls are physical buttons and I've had the car a while, so I don't need to look at them, but I think my point remains.
The whole idea that gaming's next gangbuster growth will come from delegating the complete quality of the experience to ISPs is laughable.

It's a market, it's going to grow, it's going to look like a segment, not the future of the industry.
I don't know if it's a "hidden feature" but Android clearly has something similar going on already. I saw it in action the other week when, as soon as I landed in Tokyo and for my whole time in Japan, my and my wife's phones made a classic SLR-like click whenever I took a picture.

We both have our phones in silent-mode all the time so it was a noticeable and immediate change - and we couldn't turn it off.

Fortunately I knew the reason for it - to avoid having us ticketed for breaking the local law that requires all cameras to make an audible sound when a picture is taken.

As soon as we left Japanese airspace they returned to normal.
It's unclear if he's also recommending to leave echo devices disconnected, or just cycling the auth info.

Based on what he's sharing now, there are hints of two issues:

1) authentication information including MFA secrets might be leaked and need to be cycled. (this would be surprising)

2) Echo devices perform undisclosed reconnaissance on nearby wifi networks (not particularly surprising)

These seem like totally separate issues with different impacts and different mitigation techniques.
From what I've read, Scotland is pretty much insolvent and still has generous social programs because England keeps them afloat.
If the vulnerability can't be revealed for "ethical" reasons, that implies it's ongoing... so what would a reset do? Wouldn't the newly reset credentials be just as vulnerable until fixed?
Right but that's the point: there's nothing wrong with "invisible matter" as an explanation if it explains everything. Even if it's actually not invisible matter, provided it behaves like it at all times, then that's good enough until it doesn't.

The universe has no requirement to satisfy the day-to-day intuitions of African-plains originated upright apes, with senses optimized to spot large predators, in how it works. Quantum mechanics is a great example of that.
ASUS pointing out that they are defining new rules for vCore and SoC voltage to address these issues is in fact pointing to that as the issue. They aren't just "throwing that in there" because it is unrelated. If you need it to be even more direct, here is the statement from ASUS that says it is SoC voltage.

https://twitter.com/ASUSTechMKTJJ/status/1650920434404331520

Here is the statement from Biostar that says SoC voltages are being limited:

https://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/news/news.php?S_ID=559

You've admitted that you work for AMD, which would make a casual observer think that you are being biased in your comments. There is verifiable proof of the correlation with SoC voltage from the ODMs themselves.
Isn't it stupid that you can't download a game and stream it while it's installing?
You aren't unique in this.

This isn't about the complete removal of touch screens or moving to purely buttons. It's about providing a better balance between physical buttons for driving essentials and then having the rest under a usable touch screen interface.

It's not all one or the other.
How so? You're the first person I've heard express this view, so I'm genuinely curious.

There's always more to read in any language, but I'm not looking for more, I'm looking for the best, and they are certainly best read in their original languages. Shakespeare in Spanish can't be the same. I want to read Descartes in French, the great philosophers in Mandarin (or whatever form of Chinese they wrote in), etc.

You can assert there's no value to you, but many assert otherwise. I'm not sure there's value in our individual assertions.

Also, there's a lot of evidence that language drives cognition; that how we perceive and think about the world is constrained and influence by our language, and that other languages enable us to see and understand the world in other ways.

at least PDF occasionally contains actual text. My organisation systematically scans everything to TIFF images for archival. So now we are embarking on a major project to OCR the TIFFs to get back the text (!).
Not sure what your budget is but I’ve used AWS for handling PDFs and it’s been pretty good at detecting content via boundary boxes.
PostgreSQL FTS is mostly great - I wrote a tutorial on using it to build faceted search with Django a few years ago: https://simonwillison.net/2017/Oct/5/django-postgresql-facet...

It does have one surprising limitation: it calculates relevance based on just the current row, rather than being able to take statistics across the whole corpus into account.

Most search engines use TF/IDF or BM25 for relevance calculations, which consider the relative common-ness of terms in comparison to the rest of the corpus. PostgreSQL FTS can't do that as far as I know.

SQLite's built-in FTS CAN do relevance calculations like this! Surprising to see a feature as significant as that show up in SQLite but not in PostgreSQL.
I've both had to acquire and validate[1] tokens from Azure AD, both Client Credentials[2] and Authorization Code[3] flows, and found Microsofts documentation quite good. I've also had to acquire tokens using certificate-based Client Credentials flow from another party.

Overall I found it fairly OK, it's a bit of a learning curve when you're just used to basic user/pass, but it's fine.

However the main issue is that when it's not working it's very opaque. This is even worse when trying to _use_ the tokens.

I spent many hours trying to figure out why my Client Credentials tokens wouldn't work for logging on to Office365's IMAP server, only to spend half an hour searching and finding some Microsoft community forum post saying it wasn't implemented yet... they only supported Authorization Code flow. This has been fixed they say, I'll know later today cause that just came up as a priority ticket...

All you get back is some "nope", with no way to figure out why.

That's exactly it. It's about segmenting the opposition.

That's not exactly the best policymaking, of course. There's no fundamental difference between fixing a tractor and a smartphone.

Over time, we're hopeful the policies will converge for all devices. Last year we did electric wheelchairs in Colorado, this year the same legislators expanded it to tractors.
this is simply untrue. I'm sorry. I recommend studying math a bit more rigorously before making claims in the future.
Both. In an ideal world, all nonviolent prisoners would serve their time in minimum security prisons as would violent offenders who are genuinely rehabilitating. With work release reintegration into society is little more than a change in residence from prison to halfway house to their own place at the end of a prison sentence.

But we don't live in an ideal world and as long as the United States justice system has a modus operandi, it should be applied consistently for the sake of fairness and equality. Otherwise it's just a big farce.

Is this for everyone with an Amazon account? Or is this for people that have Amazon Echo devices?
Saying that it's whatever I'm working on at the moment is not really a poor answer. It's all important to someone at sometime.
Teslas have 17" screens, and no one made an automotive-grade one at that size,
so it's no wonder they had problems sourcing it. But at scale, I could see the 7" properly automotive-grade screens being available for $50 when there are some availabile for less than that on Amazon.
Then it's back to piracy and the entire industry becomes unprofitable. Nothing of value will be lost.
