OpenAI - It's bad to keep the whole power of AI between the hands of one corporation, doesn't matter if it is OpenAI, Microsoft, or Google, I think the power of AI should be accessible equally by everybody.
Exactly.

The only solution would be to inform users that their data is funnelled to CCP servers in very obscure ways, that’s the only right thing that you could do.

Have a look at RAW Power by Gentlemen Coders (https://www.gentlemencoders.com/). The team consists of former Aperture engineers, so it's similar. Costs a reasonable $40. You can use either Photos libraries or manage the files yourself. Overall, I've been really pleased with it.

AR is currently impossible. Even with a 300watt power budget we just don't have the machine perception abilities to actually make it work properly.
I think you're forgetting what actually makes a game at its core. What separates the medium from others are roughly these things: interaction, objectives, mechanics, feedback, challenge.

The art department can make the feedback better, the objectives clearer, the interaction easier, but fundamentally you can have a game without any art at all (see dwarf fortress, zork, etc.) and have it be a game, whereas a bunch of art assets by themselves don't a game make.

Nowadays it's all about marketing material and lying to people, so having good game art is prerequisite for great prerendered trailers that will drive preorders. But when you allocate all your budget to art, you don't end up with a game, you end up with false promises.

The average kid who is that bright or in that situation is not being asked to work a check-out line. We recognize that it isn't an efficient use of their talent. That kid is doing side projects or taking internships. They have to pick up some patience somewhere.
Moving offices outside of the downtown doesn't really help. The only visible benefit is less load on the city center (often tourist and historical destination).

It simple 2D geometry - if you live 1x from the office your commute is 20 minutes, if you live 2x from the office, your commute is 50 minutes, 3x from the office - 90 minutes commute, and so on. If you move the main cluster of the offices outside of the city border, then the commute time would change for people, for some it will decrease, for some it will increase. There would be exactly the same percentage of people living 1x, 2x, 3x etc. from the office, just the people would be shuffled between the quartiles.
The story one is brilliant! Allowing the user to set a theme is the icing on the cake. Also love the icon, would you mind sharing the prompt?
Across the board, we should "retire" the war-esque (i.e., violence normalizing) language. There's got to be better ways to communicate such things without promoting the species' worst habit.
In China most payments cannot be reversed. By contrast, the security of payment methods are much more stringent in China.

I was surprised when I first learnt that you could spend money online with a VISA card by only card number, expiration date and a 3(!) digit CVV. Those are hardly secure and printed out on the card that anyone can see. Then the US merchants have so many rules about fraud detection but all of them are just heuristics with many false positives and false negatives.

When Internet companies constantly invents new methods to both increase security and usability (two step authentication, pass keys, FIDO-U2F), the payment industry in the US is just stuck in the past.

Or vendors that currently sell cases and repair screens will then offer a service to sideload such apps for teens and install who knows what other stuff on phones for a fee from a customer and malware vendors.

> VR is not there and maybe never will be

I think that’s probably the ultimate truth at least as long as it requires glasses or goggles.

VR won’t be there, but VR may be here. Tens of millions of units are sold each year. That might be the right size of the market. It’s been around for 30 years now. In some ways it’s a mature market.

Regarding cost, some employees might still find it worthwhile to use a co-working space at their own cost, if they save enough on commuting (which employers also typically don't pay for), or if they earn enough to be able to absorb the cost.

Regarding confidentiality, using co-working spaces needn't be full-time, but could be combined with WFH, just like going to the office can, which could help somewhat.
Yes, .NET is an excellent choice for web development. It offers a powerful and versatile framework for building robust web applications. With the introduction of .NET Core, it has become even more popular and accessible, enabling developers to create cross-platform applications. .NET provides high performance, built-in security features, and a comprehensive set of development tools and frameworks.

It also boasts a large and active developer community, ensuring ample support and resources. Additionally, its integration with the Microsoft ecosystem further enhances its appeal. Overall, .NET remains a strong contender for web development, offering a reliable and efficient platform for creating modern web applications.

> The issue is around bellicose metaphors in oncology.

Translation: You seem to be claiming that "the issue" is about hostile rhetoric regarding the study and treatment of tumors.

> While some people respond to that language, many do not.

I'm not understanding what you are trying to say here. Do we not all respond to hostile rhetoric in unique ways? When you say that someone "does not respond", surely you mean something else?

> In particular, in some studies it increases feelings of guilt regarding the transition from active to palliative care in situations where the malignancy is not responding to active treatment or where the patient doesn’t want to accept the adverse effects of treatment, as in “Oh, you’re giving up?”

When you say that "in some studies it increases feelings of guilt", what is the "it" that you are referring to exactly?

This kind of seems to imply both sides had an equal part in the conflicts when that wasn't the case. Is it really a grudge for China and Korea to dislike Japan for what it did to them when Japan and largely the world act like it never happened? It is strange to me how much of an historical pass Japan has gotten compared to Germany.

I agree it's nice to eventually move on, but it's really tough when your agressor never even acknowledged its agression.

People get into incredible mental contorsions to justify helping one customer who should really be able to find alternatives, over helping 1000+ customers who cannot.
This sounds suspiciously like a “no true Scotsman” argument to me.

Remote first is a spectrum and dismissing lived experiences as “oh, you just haven’t experienced the right kind of remote first” helps no one.

What makes you think documenting everything exhaustively is a panacea? What if the quality of documentation sucks? Will your argument change to “you have to document everything to a certain level of quality otherwise you aren’t remote first enough”?

Please don’t feel I’m attacking you. I was a big remote first proponent before experiencing the difficulties of integrating with teams who didn’t know me except as a voice on a call.

After this, I’m more sympathetic to execs demanding RTO for culture reasons.

What would be the specific harm of TikTok? Is it because of China, or because of this style of social media apps?

If it's because of China, then ban TikTok and subsidize a competitor app - but be serious about it. Be ready to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on keeping the app free and servers up for years, sponsoring hundreds of content creators, dragging celebrities in to produce exclusive content, burning tons of money on all kinds of loss-generating marketing bullshit, like "publish a video from $concert, best 100 videos win a Nintendo Switch", for each concert in the state/country for the next few years.

Point being, if you can provide a TikTok alternative and make it extremely attractive, even if by literally giving away hundreds of dollars to each new user, then kids won't care about using TikTok anymore.

Now, if it's not about China but teenage use of social media?

Put an absurdly high tax on smartphones. Like 200%-1000%. That will make sure they become unavailable to a typical teenager.

Beyond that? I don't think you can do much about it directly, or in the immediate term.

I drove and walked all over SF a few months ago, and while I agree it’s feasible, the lack of bike lanes is disheartening, much worse dedicated ones.

Pretty much. Much larger products are also more likely to not use an SBC in the first place, so naturally the majority of the products needing Pis urgently are in that smaller range.

Of course you also have large companies making low-volume products using Pis, where I guess one could argue more that those companies should be able to take the hit of temporarily not being able to make as many as they'd like. But for smaller companies without large buffers or other business, its a big problem.

I'd be curious to what degree they've looked into the exact cases when deciding who to support.
The excessive fees have been illegal for a few years now. They can only charge the actual cost incurred. Worth a lodging a complaint about them:

Funny right. It’s almost like there’s people who enjoy living in walkable cities.
A lot of that demand is for the house/apartment as an investment vehicle or for the idle rich for a party pad. Alternatively, it is a place for people directly or indirectly on welfare of some kind to be funneled to. Those two uses have become increasingly more prominent in US cities. You have to be addled in some way to think these cities are for middle class people, which is why many of them have seen historically massive waves of middle class outmigration in recent years.

Is an American city for you? Are you a( indigent; b( a literal aristocrat or rich enough to be one; or c( a "financial domination" enjoyer who desires to give everything they earn to some combination of landlords and governments when you are not giving all your time to your boss? If you answered yes to any of the above, an American city is for you. If you are a working stiff, the city doesn't want you anyway.
> Why exactly Europeans should be grateful?

Just because it's in the US interest, doesn't mean Europe doesn't benefit. And the US is paying. They aren't benefitting. They're providing.
> any implementable function has to be one whose first k outputs are determined by at most the first k inputs -- i.e., you can't look into the future. That is, these functions have to be causal.

This function produces k outputs when given 2*k inputs, so it's either acausal or impossible to execute. Right?

Thanks for your comment and thoughts.

I think this tech is harder to get started with than not using it and that's a problem you've noticed.

I played with temporal on my workstation and thought it was really interesting but it is more things to deploy and maintain in exchange for reliability and robustness.

I had the choice between using Rust or C recently, but because the domain was new to me I chose C to get it done faster. Rust definitely has a learning curve.

There is a slot for an optional one, but as others have pointed out - software for the 8088 which used FP were few and far between.
Maybe in some cases. I think it's a creativity issue. In an ideal world the utility can be preserved or increased, with the use of an innovation that improves significantly the life of the functionally varied, with secondary effect of reducing for example cognitive strain on the original user. There may challenges in mindset, funding, time, organisation, lack of understanding or empathy, and so on, for this to be reality. But I would argue that there is a flow of unforeseen benefit from the user that requires a feature, to users that don't require a feature but reduces time and energy spent on getting something done just because the path is shorter, easier, friendlier. Personally I have used many accessibility features as part of small productivity hacks. I also think the study of for example UI accessibility doesn't only apply to the functionally varied but also makes life easier for any user.
There's really not much point to Raspberry Pi's anymore, in my opinion. Their performance is so bad that they are terrible for general purpose computing. For embedded use cases, they are power hungry and lack features.
I've used nreal air.

The good:
- Great form factor
- Image quality for screen mirroring is great
- Display has good brightness
- Decent speakers

The bad:
- Nebula (AR software that allows projecting multiple screens) has a worse image quality (I see some flickering). It's also buggy (e.g. it doesn't work on latest MacOS)
- Slightly heavy. You would start feeling the weight on your ears after wearing it for an hour or so.
- When screen mirroring an M1 Mac, the display settings on Mac doesn't allow you to resize the screen. It works on an Intel Mac though.

Eventually I decided to return it as I want to wait for the device to mature and I don't really have a strong need for AR glasses at this time. I'd be looking forward to their next version.

I think the current AR glasses (Nreal, Rokid, etc) are probably at the same level of maturity as smart watches when they first came out in the early to mid 2010s.
but they would know how much tax the customer would have to pay.

This is not the point of the raspberry pi. It is to provide a very cheap computer for developing countries so that they can access online ressources and education. What alternative do you see?
I am sure your right about the eyes. But I would posit that most people wouldn’t know uncalibrated from calibrated anyhow. So seems like a moot point.

As to binning LEDs that works because it is constant. You can calibrate it once and done. But if you change the brightness by changing the current, it means your calibration is out of wack. Perhaps you can make a calibration at multiple current settings, but that seems inconvenient when using PWM will achieve the same thing.
That’s not what a “monopoly” means and Safari was never good on Windows.
