Go to Costco. Free exams, no membership required for the exam. Hearing aids are about $700 each with free cleanings and adjustments, at least as long as the warranty. Membership is required for purchase and service. I have had cleanings and repairs at no charge with no appointment while doing my regular shopping.

Edit: appointment is required for the hearing test. They will insist on doing their own test even if you show up with an audiogram.

The bar for a valid DMCA claim is very low. While it's definitely the case that frivolous, non-valid DMCAs get taken at face value and treated as valid by some companies, fixing this wouldn't fix the underlying problem since filing spurious valid DMCAs has almost no real punishment, since no one has been willing to actually litigate to punish people doing it.
It’s not a crutch at all, it’s a very useful tool and central to a certain style of programming. There are other styles of programming, like prototyping and scripting, where just relying on yourself not making the mistake in the first place is better.
Source? I googled and couldn’t find anything.
How many lines of code were from devDependencies (i.e., for use while developing) and how many ended up in the final production bundle actually intended to be served to the client?
Yep - and that's why I don't befront Nintendo doing what they are doing; the Switch is a live console and there's a real demand for pirated games.
Why would they do that when their business is selling hardware? You make it seem like they are being foolish or unreasonable. They aren't Netflix

I have a hearing deficit and am looking forward to more options in this space. But I will be surprised if Apple ever sells anything that can be discreetly worn. They seem to enjoy making products serve as advertisements.

(I use my iPhone and Apple Watch and AirPods Pro daily. It seems that one still cannot buy a version of the Apple Watch with a cell modem without a red ring on it.)

I think part of the point of moving to ray tracing and physically correct global illumination is that if the technology stack works right you don't actually have to work very hard to get your assets to look good.

Let's take for example Second Life. The content is almost all user-generated, and when it originally came out it looked a lot worse than other games that were available at the time. The difference is mostly: since the content is user generated, you don't have some army of artists touching up the textures and pre-baking the lighting to make everything look at least plausibly realistic.

What Second Life was missing was the technology to compute global illumination in real time against arbitrary content so that the user-generated assets look as good as if some artist had specially lit and textured each one. (Maybe even better, because computers are more thorough and exact than humans -- assuming exactness is what you want. Artists sometimes take creative liberties because unrealism sometimes looks better.)

I haven't paid attention to Second Life in a long time; if a few minutes looking at random youtube videos is any indication, it seems they haven't really made much progress on this front. I think eventually companies will figure this out. I haven't paid attention to Facebook's Metaverse project because I expect it to be a flop (for non-technical reasons), but maybe they're banking on the graphics technology being there to make user-generated content look not-fake. I think that part might be achievable now with modest hardware.

As far as this new paper goes, I'm not sure if it makes things easier or harder for content creators. It seems like it makes the rendering stack more complex and harder to understand, but if someone can supply came creators with awesome textures and they don't have to care where they came from or how they work then maybe that's fine.
It worked against Democrats because the Republican base does not care about facts and just need a reason, fact or fiction, to justify the outrage they are told to feel.
Buy high-quality merino/nylon socks (Smartwool, Darn Tough, etc) and you will not have this problem. I have pairs that have lasted 10 years and are still going strong. Yes, they're expensive compared to the usual cotton stuff. It's because they're better.
The paper says that more detailed discussion of partition methods is given in [15]. That looks like Sedwicks's Ph. D thesis which was on Quicksort?

I found this: https://sedgewick.io/wp-content/themes/sedgewick/papers/1975...

Basically a longer book on Quicksort with a lot more analysis.

He doesn't discuss any partitioning methods that do not move two indices toward each other from opposite ends of the subarray. It's not even on the table.
I guess you could outsource ID verification for someone else to get a photo of my government ID but either way that's too much friction to join a social network.

Yeah in the beginning it definitely felt extremely weird talking to a camera, with no other person in the room. I had trouble talking as naturally as I do to a live audience or even to a friend.

This was actually so hard for me in the beginning, that I avoided talking directly to the camera for a long time. Instead I recorded footage of me doing things and then did a voiceover track to put over that.

But it is mostly a matter of practice and becoming used to, and comfortable with, that situation.

After 1-2 years of weekly videos it didn’t feel weird anymore for me. And nowadays I can talk just as naturally to the camera as to a friend.

But yeah definitely a big hurdle for many people I have talked to as well.

I think what I nowadays do, without thinking about it, is I imagine the camera is a person in my core audience.

I think we are already there. The best selling Tesla right now is also a slowest Tesla ever made - Model Y SR at pretty limpy 0-60 of 7s (which is perfectly fine and fun to drive).

p.s. Seeing how many people already killed themselves with Plaid - I think gov should require advanced driving licence for super quick and super fast cars.
Wouldn't the reentry ioniztion mess with this?
Be wary of EULAs though. Even though it hasn’t reached SCOTUS yet, some circuit courts have ruled that if the EULA says “no reverse-engineering,” it is actually a violation of contract to try to reverse-engineer the software. Reverse-engineering the hardware is OK because of First Sale Doctrine, but software is licensed (not sold) and the license terms can ban it in some circumstances.

Edit: When you click “I agree,” you have signed a contract according to US Courts. If you somehow use the software without accepting the EULA, you have no license, which is automatic copyright infringement. Unless expressly stated, software is not “sold” in the US, ever. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clickwrap#Legal_consequences...

It's not tangential at all. If the purpose of these sensors is for autonomous driving, and "solving" sensor fusion hasn't gotten you there, how can you possibly say it is a solved problem? Sensor fusion (in this context) is not solved until you are using fused sensors for autonomous driving.
Kansas City Kansas and Kansas City Missouri are in fact 2 distinct jusridictions, each contribute to the larger Kansas City Metro Area. While there are varying definitions of what jurisdictions comprise the "Metro" one could point to regional planning commision MARC as being the defining entity. Regardless, the KC Metro is geographically large in area as there is quite a bit of unbuildable floodplain land dissecting Kansas City Missouri leading to a fun bit of trivia; The KC Metro has more lane miles of roadway per capita than any other metro in the world. It's not even really close in comparison either.

I could definitely see the benefit of TS on a giant, modern app with a big team. However, at my job I am a solo developer on literally dozens of smaller JS projects of varying age that I need to keep running essentially forever. Typescript is enough of a pain in my npm build process that I just ditched it long ago. The fewer dev dependencies the better for me personally.
If you aren't diabetic you could pay for something like Nutrisense or Levels to get enough monitors to cover about 2-3 months of activity, learn what triggers spikes, and then cut it. What you see in those three months is pretty much what you are going to see going forward unless you were to make a significant lifestyle change and stick to it (going to/from carnivore/omnivore/vegetarian, cutting out alcohol, etc...)

I used Levels for about 3 months and I saw the same thing over and over again, it was obvious when I was being good about my eating, it was obvious when I went out for happy hour. I learned a couple things, mix a little fat or protein in if you are consuming carbs to blunt the spike, the alert to "take a walk to blunt the spike" is never long enough unless you go for an hour or more. Another year or two of wearing it wouldn't change any of that.

Unless your PC says for your condition of X we are going to try and get your glucose level to never go past Y and see if it fixes it, a CGM for non diabetic people is something you can timebox to 3-ish months, get the data, and get out for under a $1000 one time investment.
Ah. That makes legal sense. I don’t like it, but I get why it might be enforceable

The last time a major vendor seriously contemplated something like this, Sony made a 45 second ad completely humiliating them, destroying any and all goodwill that vendor had built up over the 6th and 7th generations, and won the early years of the 8th generation more or less for free. Never underestimate to what extent people value things like being able to play games offline and not having to deal with obtrusive checks tied to a centralized service.
One could have said much the same about the iPod.
So how many people have been seriously harmed by this 3 billion dollar industry? I'm particularly interested to know how many people who weren't taking the drug but were harmed by someone who was?
It is a fact that Xbox One/Series has inferior sales to PS4/5 in almost all countries to varying degrees. In fact, other than the CMA in the UK, which has taken issue with cloud gaming, have regulators in other countries approved Microsoft's acquisition of AB on the basis that it would not reduce competition, based on Xbox's share of the console market? The UK should also be of the opinion that there is no problem if it is only consoles. I think Spencer's argument is rather counterproductive as a rebuttal to the CMA, since he is not talking about consoles, but rather about cloud games, mobile games, etc., which are the main areas of focus.
they have hired some homebrew developers in past under some reasonable terms [e.g nda that expires after given time] but guessing well informed actions got overrun by corporate protectionist bullshit.
And if you're playing a part to get a result; you'll have to keep playing that part. It can work for a job, but it's a shaky basis for a long-term relationship.
Really? Denver 15 years ago was pretty rad. Maybe I should go check it out.
It is ironic that modern consoles are so close to PCs now, but PC games were much more popular back then. Nowadays there are hardly any big PC exclusives anymore,
and many console ports are lousy, despite the extremely similar hardware. I guess much fewer people own PCs nowadays.
REST is almost always a misused term:

https://htmx.org/essays/how-did-rest-come-to-mean-the-opposi...

HATEOAS (or the hypermedia constraint) is a requirement for a REST-ful system, as the creator of the term (Roy Fielding) says here:

https://roy.gbiv.com/untangled/2008/rest-apis-must-be-hypert...

I have an rewritten wikipedia article on HATEOAS here:

https://htmx.org/essays/hateoas/

And I agree it doesn't make much sense outside of a hypermedia system (like the web), being consumed by humans:

TLDR from ChatGPT:

A study by the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University found a correlation between poor diet and 14 million cases of type 2 diabetes worldwide in 2018. Insufficient intake of whole grains, excess refined rice and wheat, and overconsumption of processed meat were identified as significant dietary factors. The research revealed that poor diet has a larger impact on men, younger adults, and urban residents. Central and Eastern Europe, Central Asia, Latin America, and the Caribbean saw the highest number of cases linked to diet. The study suggests that addressing dietary issues can help tackle the global type 2 diabetes epidemic.
Can we spin a story about Google and their failing to take advantage of AI opportunities, open AI plus Microsoft coming up crush them in search? Apparently Google hasn't really tried that hard to commercialize their AI stuff and they had worries that it would tell lies and talk about uncomfortable things like say Nazis. So Google fudged their future kind of like Xerox... and this could be what finally seriously hurts them.

I agree with the sentiment of the piece, but I disagree with the idea that TPMs don't add much value for end users.

TPMs were originally designed in the early days of ecommerce, when it became clear that home computers would need better security if they were going to be used for financial transactions.

Today's TPMs don't have a lot of compute power, but they have a lot of features.
It's just that we don't have that much software taking the best advantage of those features yet, probably because they have only just become ubiquitous in the last couple years.

TPMs lay the groundwork for unphishable credentials, using hardware-bound asymmetric keys.

TPMs add a user-friendly option for full-disk encryption, in a way that's resistant to physical attacks.

TPMs can be used to protect symmetric credentials too, instead of storing them on disk (see systemd-creds TPM2 support).

And, TPMs do have actual privacy mechanisms. End-user TPMs do not offer up their endorsement key to any third party. Attestation workflows shield third parties from the endorsement key.

I'm excited for more widespread use of TPMs in Linux especially. Lately systemd has been making some good progress here.

The "disposable" electronics in these are also extremely interesting. They're cost-reducing the hell out of these devices. Even in the last few months, one vendor replaced a cheap chip (TI RF430) with even cheaper custom silicon. They are not standing still!

What's wrong with people being upset that in order to play the game they have to install low level kernel modules? It's flawed software that hits an ant with a sledgehammer. Adding to injury, tons of reports online of people getting BSODs and other security features not working while the module is enabled. It's invasive and it's silly to be as dismissive as you are around peoples' concerns.

You can buy them on Amazon now at various price points depending on desired features. They've been available for years, just under euphemistic names to avoid regulatory action.
Fair use (specifically the American variant) is a constitutional and statutory doctrine that balances the rights of the copyright holder and society's. It's decided by 4 factors, weighed "holistically" and individually. Ultimately it's up to each judge to decide whether fair use is present or not. And it applies to all possible infringments of copyrights, not just derivative works.
I guess "ish" is closer than "ikh" but still not correct.
In the article I recommend splitting your hypermedia and data APIs up into two separate concerns.

The data API can address all of the concerns you have.

The hypermedia API, being consumed by an htmx front end, can then take advantage of the strengths of hypermedia (e.g. the uniform interface giving you a lot of flexibility in aggressively refactoring your API.)

Please, read the article.

It’s hard to produce tasty food at a reasonable price point that doesn’t involve lots of sugar, salt, etc.

Worse, when you aim for that market customers start to want local, organic, grass fed, etc which drastically increases ingredient costs.
Came here to say this. I grew up in the Sonic ROM hacking and fan game creation community (with this same username - my first posts are around 2001 and still around) and it was so cool to see how SEGA not only didn’t fuck with, but silently actually supported the scene. It was really awesome to see taxman and stealth get to where they did! I remember playing around with the Sonic Retro engine back in the day on my actual Dreamcast hardware. :)

Meanwhile; my friends in the Mario and Metroid hacking scene would constantly be hit with cease and desist orders from Nintendo, and some absolutely insane projects have been basically DOA and had to go underground. It’s quite a bit sad.

Except that the most successful companies have paid close attention to negative externalities. Ford Motors shortened the work week and paid workers a high wage at the cost of short-term profit.

Cage-free chicken eggs and eco-friendly shoe/clothing brands are quickly becoming more popular than the alternative. Consumers generally care about negative externalities so they often do not stay externalities for long.
