Hasn't that happened in Somalia? There were happy fishermen until their fishing grounds were depleted by businessmen and their big boats which led to the pirate industry?

On land, it's hunter gatherers and farming or logging.
I guess. if you want the same game every time, then play the same game every time.

I want new stuff. I want new things to do, and new ways to discover what is possible. I do not want to be led around by the nose like an ox.

I want to learn about the overall Hyrule lore, and the repeated battle between Ganon(dorf) and the forces of Good. I want to know more about this universe, even if... no, especially if I need to discover it myself, without the game outright telling me.

I would bet the majority of gamers are actually on console by raw numbers. Appliances are super useful for normies.

And native desktop development is, like, 2% of enterprise development. Tops. And all the paying users are over on the mac side.

We can excuse the brake riding in the automatic, but why not just downshift the manual?
Who was making any arguments against different “root causes”? As far as I can tell, no one was until you chimed in. Are you trying to say that non-Asians suffering emotional and physical abuse is somehow lesser because there are different “root causes”?

Emulation is legal, and has been for years. THis is not the same as Piracy.
Most of the implementation of ChatGPT is not symbolic. It’s matrices of floating point numbers. This seems to undermine the premise of the theory you mention.
But that's true of public transit projects too. They always promise to reduce congestion and never actually do. Congestion charging is probably the only way to really reduce congestion and in many ways the solution is worse than the problem.

And, more than not being a problem, the highway filling up immediately is actually a benefit. Because more people are able and are choosing to travel, to accomplish whatever they need and want to accomplish.

Granted, the externality costs of all that car travel are high. But that's almost a separate issue and one that we really should be solving by a better accounting of costs and additional taxes. It's a shame that won't happen.
Network effects are dominant due to reach. Open access journals have even more reach than the paywall journals.

So it's not that.
Republicans used Trump to overturn Roe. Trump himself didn't care at all about abortion and was nominally pro-choice until he decided to run for president

The stuff Trump wanted to do himself he had much less success with.
Well, my laptop and my desktop are set up pretty similarly to each other. Syncing is useful for me :shrug:
I don't know how gun violence scales with number of guns all i can say is that the USA has an obvious problem here and no solution for it. If you look at the czech republic that also have rather liberal gun laws (for european standards) yet significantly less gun violence, it seems that the american way of guns for everyone who isn't a criminal (yet) is obviously and tragically failing.

But it's a moot point, if school children being slaughter isn't enough to pass mandatory licensing and regular background checks and mental exams for gun owners nothing will. The left only wants to ban guns, the right is blocking any progress on reducing gun violence and people get slaughtered in schools, shopping malls and on the street.

I genuinely believe that peoples are responsible for their government, especially in democracies so when it comes to gun violence it seems americans get exactly what they want. Questionable freedom in exchange for dead school children and utterly dumb gun laws. Good thing those founding fathers wrote that 2nd amendment, they sure were wise man.
Could it be that you won't apologise because a part of you fears that the apology might be used against you?

The recovery process will necessarily pass by trusting people again, and making yourself vulnerable to them. That is the only way you can experience that they behave like normal human beings who won't exploit your weaknesses.
> And that's on the heavy side! Tauri is awesome, it's unfortunate most developers opt for Electron to reduce the amount of testing needed between browser engines.

The browser engine differences isn’t that big of a deal, because you already have standard ways of dealing with it on the web. I think today the main reasons people pick Electron today are tooling, desktop integration features and Node. Tauri is catching up insanely fast though. I am very happy that I jumped on the bandwagon fairly early.

> in which case I hope lighter weight engines purpose-made for web applications get adopted as an alternative to shipping the entirety of Chromium with each program I download

Absolutely, shipping a browser engine is insanity and should always have been a stopgap at best imo. Even servo is way too heavyweight to ship with each app. Good news is with OS having native webviews we’re 80-95% there already, so we don’t even have to deal with that tradeoff – this let’s an app have a perf overhead of ~1 typical browser tab. It’ll take a moment to iron out all kinks but it’s already perfectly acceptable on most deployment targets. Honestly, Linux is just as bad when it comes to distribution. Distros have been in some perpetual siloing mindset and have not been able to get behind a decent and unified distribution story. It has nothing to do with web though.

> it's just that there is currently no interest from the big players to keep funding these developments

The big players have been so awful that even if you disregard the abysmal interop story, distributing native apps is still orders of magnitude more hassle than the web ecosystem. Imo Electron was born as an escape hatch from that disaster, not because frontend developers conspired to eat all the worlds RAM for fun. I absolutely agree that the big players should passively fund projects like servo and tauri. I don’t want them anywhere near strategic decision making though.
I feel like this unfiltered format is going to make any Twitter-like site look awful. But having said that, looking at this, I don't have any desire to get an account on bluesky. There's still lots of content/people like this on Twitter.
> But copyright law prevents you from making a copy of it, including the copy that your computer would need to make to run the software.

I am not convinced of that. If I hold a book up to a mirror, am I breaking copyright law? If I read a book aloud to a child, am I breaking copyright law? My retinas will contain an actual physical image of the book whenever I look at the book. Are my retinas breaking copyright law?

> You might be under the misunderstanding that contracts need to be signed to be effective. Nope.

I am not under that misapprehension, but I do believe that a contract must be explicitly agreed to in order to be valid. And in my example, I did not agree to anything when purchasing software in a store; I gave them money, they gave me a box.
They’re forced to do that because they’re not offering a solution to anything meaningful.
Mobile platforms seem a bit broken. Timer/alarm apps seem to be able to take actions and notify on a regular schedule, it is specifically scheduled network activity that's restricted?
Yes, comprised/utilize doesn't really matter because you will know from context, but biweekly is really tricky. For example "we have biweekly sprint ceremonies on monday and friday" can be very confusing.
This is a slightly off-topic question but I'll go anyway: if I would want to learn a cross platform low-level language to target with custom toy language compilers, which would be the best alternative betweeen

- JVM;

- LLVM;

- WebAssembly; or

- Something else entirely?

Man, the demoscene. Truly the gift that keeps on giving and maybe of the last places where the true hacker spirit still thrives.

Nostalgia is a powerful drug and I’m loathe to say anything is the best because it’s all so subjective, but for me personally those years in the mid-90s where computing was just a big open greenfield for new ideas was amazing.

I was 16, modding Renegade and drawing ANSI for my BBS and toodling around in ImpulseTracker trying to be Purple Motion and learning HTML for this new thing called the web and it was all just perfect.

Your code is supposed to be loadable in any order. If not, you are doing something wrong and you could experience just the same issues without it.

But if you don't like autoloading, you can turn it off with just `config.eager_load = true`.
I agree that VMT is good because of why people make those trips. If you're saying spending all that money on public transit would be a better way to help more people make more of those trips, then you'd be unequivocally wrong in much of the US. Go to someplace like Dallas and marvel at the nearly empty buses and light rail run cars. Maybe we could focus on dramatically improving public transit in someplace suitably dense like West LA. If only the politics allowed it.
Yeah everyone here is totally missing this point

I agree with your experience, and am curious as to what the difference between the two scenarios is.
Agreed. But I think we may reach a point where it is difficult to prompt the most advance AI (which may are may note be an LLM, though maybe contain an LLM mode) in a productive way, especially due to computational demands on resources. And so AI's with lesser, cheaper capabilities may be reasonably competent in "understanding"-- a term I user very loosely-- the problem of dealing with more advanced but resource constrained systems and assist in the best practices in prompting them.
Nobody said that the fisherman is engaged in subsistence living.

I'd also like a citation on the claim that "basic government services" require profit-making (and presumably taxation to go with it) that is substantively different than the fisherman's approach to life.
Yeah, I do it that way. It's a feature, not a bug. I turn off push notifications on all other social media too.
> a custom, albeit clever, solution.

It was "custom" in 2010. When StarCraft 2 did it. Discord launched in 2015.

"I cannot parse the idea of a username without an @ in front of it" does not suggest that such a person will be more receptive to Discord when @'s are added. On the other hand, I've already canceled my Nitro subscription because I had it for the novelty name and a 200-server limit that I'm no longer using.
>Apps can't just send notifications?

They can but consider this: How would they know to send them?

If you are adding a provider only locally there's no way for the app to know to generate a notification if it doesn't have an IMAP idle connection open constantly or scheduled polling. If the app is shipped by the email provider (like gmail app for ios using a gmail account) they can send pushes without leaving connection open or polling.

The point of having your details with the app developer is that their servers will remain always connected to your email provierr and generate pushes that will go over Apple or Google's push network.
Not for the folks north of you. I'd be happy with a form & a pencil but for the past year plus I've been told by the less than helpful dr office assistant to "Go to our website and make your appointment" which then makes me fill in various screening forms.

The trade off - clerk doesn't have to spend less than a minute looking up and giving me a time for my next appointment and I have to setup yet another id & password to use their crappy appointment/medical forms app in a cloud somewhere.
Why choose this over etcd? Especially if it's a limitation / non-goal to support all Redis commands, or to respond with Redis-like quick performance? Why not go with the battle-hardened (it's the backing datastore in Kubernetes), proven option?
I agree that there are much worse ways that corporations can be scummy. This is pretty low on the list of priorities compared to environmental destruction, funding warlords, etc. Also, I agree that people don't have a right to infinite free labor.

And as for human flakiness... yes it's there. It feels different somehow but I can't put my finger on it. The last example feels most relevant... the contractor finishing half a job. That would be considered pretty shady, and I think for good reason.
Living in a big city would be great, except its ridiculously expensive. Real estate prices are considerably different pre-covid and post-covid.

They recently abandoned the .compact suffix which rendered a site that was friendly to low-end mobile devices. The ‘old’ site may not be far behind.
Here's the real issue as I see it, based on the CEO's statements.

His reasoning that '“almost half” of all friend requests failing to connect people to the right person' clearly alludes to some friending metric they want to improve. It's an easy "fix" and they're probably right, this change is highly likely to "move the needle" on this metric and other related metrics such as # of friends, first month retention, etc. as a result of better early user friending experience.

But modern tech product development and its obsession with "moving the needle" avoids this question: What about the long term effects? I would ask, does making Discord more like traditional social media eat away at its "core culture", that essence that makes people loyal and likely to stay with it over months and years of time?

While you can have a holdout group to "measure against",because of the network effect it doesn't always work out the way you intend it to - if your friends stop using Discord as much, you're likely to use it less as well.

To me, it sounds like they have a) immense outside pressure and b) decreasing conviction in their original vision, which feels like the beginning of the end.
I feel for you, but in this case it sounds reasonable, at least as a first step. OTC medicines tend to be less potent than their prescribed counterparts. This is to protect people who don't know what they need from themselves (and many other reasons).

You are going to have tons of new low quality new options, and setting hard limits on their potential damage to new users (either due to misuse or poor design) seems like a good approach until the dust settles.
His son already got into YC2024, via his participation in a worker-owned tech coop that is bringing big data, AI and crowd sourcing to the fishing business.

His wife, who in the 1800s, would never have been recognized for her work, is today known as one of her country's greatest contemporary sculptors, and has exhibited at Tate Modern, the Guggenheim and has a show next month in Rio.

The fisherman used to talk with pride about his family's accomplishments when sipping retsina with his friends on the dock.

> On the other hand, if that's the result of doing that, then there'd be no gain.

Yeah, we'll just have to wait to see. Passkeys are just big enough and different enough that I think they are exposing a lot of the holes in existing modeling of authentication.

For example, a party may not want to rely on a separate piece of software or cloud-backed data for authentication, but that is the reality for password managers today, as well as text messages and TOTP for a lot of people. What are these factors that would always survive an attacker getting access to a user device and to their cloud account? You quickly find yourself in the realm of issued hardware key fobs and in-person identity verification for account recovery.

The difference in affordances between "everyone has a number attached" and "somebody who isn't you doesn't" should be obvious.

My username on Discord is "Ed#1234". My username will not be "@Ed". That sucks, the change isn't my choice, and I've canceled my subscription because they're removing the one feature, as much of a vanity thing as it is, that I liked enough to give them money.

(This isn't an invitation to well-actually-that's-illogical about it. I could not care in the slightest if you think it is sufficiently lesswrongish to be valid. They're changing my username out from under me. That sucks. They have lost me as a customer.)

Most non-fiction has little literary value (which consists of more than plot) though.
Government services obviously require a resource surplus (and some mechanism to direct that surplus to paying for these services, of which taxation is the most common one). If everybody are chill fishermen, there's no surplus - there's no reason for the fisherman to create one.
It's outstanding how advanced the ancient Greeks were. What characteristics allowed their civilization to flourish so rapidly in science to the extent that they weren't matched in Europe until the Renaissance?
Nintendo's sales has nothing to do with what is fair use. They sold me something, it's mine now and I should be allowed to do whatever I want with it.
This just seems so infuriatingly stupid. I don’t know what else to say. I hate what the Internet has become.
Many high quality human programmers could go off and make a very good program from a simple description/prompt. I see no reason an LLM couldn’t do the same.

On top of that, there’s no reason an AI couldn’t ask additional questions to clarify certain details, just like a human would. Also as this tech gets faster, the iteration process will get more rapid too, where a human can give small bits of feedback to modify the “finished product” and get the results in seconds.
The closest parallel might be how native americans lived for thousands of years subsisting on the land. The level of sustainable living they maintained was extraordinary. Everything from 3 sisters farming, to fish stocking in lakes, to controlled burns to prevent wildfires... they found a harmony with their environment to just live enough, and no more.

I'm confused by your post since for one, I never suggested a solution.. but also your post seems to be calling the removal of accreditation silly, but also calling accreditation nonsense. So you seem to be conflicted?

39g/355ml[1] is almost exactly half (54%) of 84g/414ml.

So Coke is indeed half the volumetric sugar content of ice cream. However, I think I probably could fairly handily eat half a Coke-can's worth of ice cream! Half a 2L-bottle's worth of ice cream (1L) would not end well, whereas 2L of Coke is a lot but definitely possible.

The typical high achiever in technical fields is the beneficiary of a better than average capacity for working memory, which is the critical bottleneck for learning complex rule-driven material in a short period of time, such as in school. But this capacity has little if any bearing on one's ability to reflect on a diffuse and unstructured corpus of information accumulated over extended periods of time, nor in cultivating the habit of remaining in suspended judgment necessary for fair, unmotivated and context-sensitive appraisal.
Add a globally unique generated name to add someone with?
I can see it making sense if you're already using the mail servers of the company that made the app (gmail for example) since they already have unrestricted access to your login info and mailbox anyway.

I guess otherwise I'd rather it be my phone regularly polling my mail server over my connection than a third party regularly polling it using theirs. I can see it being a popular option for folks on expensive/very limited data plans though. It doesn't take a ton of bandwidth to poll a mail server, but checking every 5-10 minutes it could add up.
I genuinely hate this "cute" yet condescending name. Maids are on the low skill low wage end of the spectrum. Even if there is a motive to mount a physical attack, possibly a targeted one, it will either be performed by a person impersonating a maid or with the help of an operator giving instructions. So, either an "evil" maid who is not really evil, or an evil "maid" who is not really a maid. Contrived, inaccurate and demeaning.
