Is there any country with a medical system that people don't complain about? For instance is there anyone in the world that would agree: "Gee, my healthcare is so cheap, it's surprising that it covers everything I want it to without me needing to go out of my way to justify my treatment options and I have so many medical professionals available to me at a moments notice!"
As a third party, it's kinda sad that the US is so invested in going to war and seeking even more conflict.

Mold: Windows version is going to be a source-available commercial product
last update.. just looks like text. software? i know FIS, fiserv or jack henry can provide you some but they're pricey, and it could be parsed from a CSV via powershell for free...

i have the addenda on how the file is laid out, just no idea how to get it to anyone.

are links allowed in comments?

That's part of a factory recovery mechanism, basically. The system looks for Start+Select+X+Power and the magnet to be detected and it'll immediately fail over to booting from the DS slot.
Update on Sharing
Great article. Reminded me of this article about the mineral "Fordite" that I recently read:

https://www.boredpanda.com/car-paint-deposits-fordite-detroi...

Many dozens or perhaps hundreds of "watching paint dry" cycles results in some spectacular agate-like specimens.
Can we please just implement some level of universal healthcare. The fact that healthcare is tied directly to payers, who fight over how to much to pay, is ridiculous. Imagine your local hospital shutting down because the hospital charged $50 for aspirin but the insurer wanted $40.
I wish Nginx would improve their developer experience. Their deployment patterns and configuration are horrid compared to Caddy which is amazing to use.
Yep. I've worked in a startup making a Laser Direct Imaging PCB photomasking machine, basically using lasers to do photo masks etc a couple year ago.
When I came in, there was a custom IPC thing made, sending essentially Python dicts over ZeroMQ (IIRC). It worked to get the machine running and doing it's thing.
For calibration of the cameras (needed to see how warped the PCB was and adjust the pattern) I needed to keep track of transforms etc. A perfect use-case for something like ROS's TF, in some incarnation.

The machine was not a 'robot' per se, but there was many sensors, decision making, actuation, so kinda like a robot.

For debugging the images and calibration transforms, we needed to write custom stuff. The whole thing was akin to ROS, with a couple days it could have been made to work with it. But alas
It can run zero diva instances. No third party plugins.

It’s a combination of the moon’s orbital velocity being low and the exhaust velocity being high.

The CMA is a quango:

> In the UK, the term quango covers different "arm's-length" government bodies, including [...] non-ministerial government departments

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quango

> The Competition and Markets Authority [...] is a non-ministerial government department

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Competition_and_Markets_Author...

But this specifics of what is and is not a quango don't matter. The original claim implied that the decision was made by a politician for political reasons and this isn't the case.
Rancher Desktop has been pretty seamless for me for local k8s development. Not too much different than a docker-compose.
I actually like it, apart from maybe text needing a little bit more padding when close to the edges of the cards etc.

The UI is minimalist without feeling like it's lacking, it's usable and the performance is great because it doesn't try to have lots of fancy gradients or animations for the sake of it.

Still using OpenProject because of the nice multi-project feature set there and Jira having rotten my brain, but Kanboard is easily 10x times faster than the sluggish OpenProject experience.

> Lots of companies are cutting ties with China

Do you have anything to back this up, preferably not cherry-picking pandemic data?

Last I checked Apple had 90% of their manufacturing done in China and lost an Indian supplier this week.

Bing apparently just became the #1 search engine in China among desktop users (whatever that means).

China just came out of nowhere as the #1 car exporter.

The idea that the world will isolate China on behalf of Washington is a unipolar pipe dream.
I think in some ways this actually is better though.

The part that gets me is that it’s x86, and not even very recent x86. This CPU model was released for retail in Q3'20. It’s 10nm. I would have much preferred to see something like a 4nm Zen4 Ryzen or ideally, some combination of ASIC / ARM there.

The other annoying thing is that it doesn’t even include a Live standard license at this price, only Live Intro. That’s just being cheap on Ableton’s part.

The big benefit I see of this over something like a Linnstrument + iPad + iConnectivity AUDIO4c is portability and Live compatibility, but I’d personally wait and see how stable the software is before pulling the trigger. Relying on a brand new software stack on x86 to do the exact right things in perfect time for live music is a bet I wouldn’t take. I hope it’s amazing, and I’m sure lots of folks worked very hard on this, but the proof will be in the pudding. There’s a reason that you don’t see Pioneer and Denon decks / mixers or really any other live audio gear rocking x86.

You seem to have trouble with words or basic logic.

Almost every post on this thread here talks about many women making choices to sexualize the workplace. I did not say I have a problem with people with breasts. I have a problem with someone accenting their breasts, and showing the top portion of them, at work. This isn't a gender issue, it's an actions issue.

2) I do think women have agency. You're the one acting like they are soulless blobs that can't make proper decision on how to look in the work place. And I have zero problems with women, but there are all types in a company and you shouldn't ignore that.

For example, I don't steal. But I wouldn't leave a laptop on the passenger seat of a parked car. This has nothing to do with my own personal actions.

Yeah, but it's not as if all the people who live in these areas voted to shut down the hospitals. There's still a sizable portion of the electorate that wants good things and they get to suffer now. Not great.
It's a great set of updates, and it's especially telling that "privacy" wasn't mentioned even once in the whole article.

Fender only followed car color trends in the late 50s and early 60s. After that they went their own way (including natural wood bodies and many "interesting" color choices of the 70s.)

Most Fender guitars sold today are still in those "custom" Duco colors from the late 50s and early 60s. (The standard Stratocaster was a burst color and the standard Telecaster was butterscotch or blonde. Any of the Duco car colors back then was a "custom" option for an additional charge.)
>"Women use theirs to accent colors in their hair, brighten their lips, make their smell travels several feet around them, color their nails, and wear tight clothing that accents their body."

Weird how this is the only thing you seem to point to women doing, and then you project all this back onto them as it being the only thing they care about. Wooooooof.

In my experience, the women I work with primarily do their jobs. Some of them, incredibly well.
One thing I wish there was better support for is live debugging and stepping through code.
That's a simplifying assumption (per the paper). In reality it would be a distribution, with a lot less going up than to the sides.

Low-Code versus Code-Based Development: Which Wins the Productivity Game?
> message-bus/rpc system Data Distribution Service (DDS) that so much of thr computing industry else has never heard of, but which is totally core to ROS.

From my understanding ROS2 chose it because it had decent mindshare in automotive and some other industrial fields.

The core data serialization isn’t too terrible. I’ve been working toward writing an embedded version in Nim. The spec is simpler than it seems.

The biggest downside to ROS2 is the multiple layers of abstraction combined with a bespoke meta-build system. To be fair, it’s still simpler than diving into the grpc c++ library IMHO.

the talks are geared towards elm but I think they offer some great advice applicable to programming in general.
I'm not so sure it would even pay for itself to continue running at some point. It's not like you can just pay to keep the servers running. It's connected to the internet and surely running on a software stack with dependencies that will have CVEs, or language version lose LTS, libraries dropped for support, etc. and need upkeep. How much money in sales could the Wii Shop channel have been pulling in by the time they shut it down? I can't imagine much.
It can be good as pain motivates, and hopefully they vote better or cause change vis different policies.

Totally agree that this won't work for all companies or situations. You're right that our initial target market is technology companies, although many of our users are outside Silicon Valley.

I also agree that getting large companies to agree to use the standards will be hard, but there examples of them adopting other standard contracts:

Here's Bank of America entering into the ISDA Master Agreement for financial derivatives https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1065696/000119312511...

and Disney using the IAB Standard Terms for online ads https://disneyconnect.com/dpep/disney-ad-guidelines/

We've already seen our users closing deals with Fortune 500 companies using the standard contracts, but we have a lot more work to do on that front.

> VCs aren't risking their own money.

First, that isn't universally true. Also, the term "VC" is often used to mean "investors". I think I can say that the history of most businesses does not start with VC's that manage hundreds of millions of dollars not belonging to them.

Business is hard, very hard. There are very few dorm-to-unicorn stories like Facebook. Even then, the Facebook story isn't about pink unicorns and lollypops for everyone from day one.

That's the major fallacy in these ideologies that vilify business. They don't come from a framework that really understands what is entailed in running and funding a non-trivial organization and making it successful in a globally competitive market.

> Maybe we shouldn't be normalizing unsustainable work that creates health problems for people, whether at the CEO or the regular worker level.

Suggestion: Go work at a farm for a summer.

I don't know of any competitive job of any kind that does not bring with it stress. Let's be careful not to manufacture fantasies. It's the "grass is greener on the other side of the fence" idea. I know someone who is theoretically worth nearly $800MM who has problems the average office worker would not want to ever have to face on a daily basis. The grass isn't always greener. It seldom is.

To add to that from a personal anecdote. I started a business back in 2000. It was a hardware/software business. I was locked in my garage 18 hours a day, 7 days a week for 18 months before I could ship our first product. Six month after shipping, and with some sales in the bank, I decided to get a new car. My old car had 200K miles and I could not even consider upgrading it before.

I was talking to a neighbor a couple of weeks after that.

He said something like "Wow! You must have hit the jackpot. Did you get a new job?". You see, from the outside, nobody sees the 18 hour days, 7 days a week, 18 month effort, struggle, pain, suffering, sleepless nights, crying, self-doubt, family problems, financial risk, etc. All they see is Martin driving a new car he did not have for the last five years. That's all they process. They have no clue, at all, none, of what it took to get there --and to stay there.
It's a non-issue because the new law exempts connecting flights. All these comments about how dumb the regulators are because they overlooked connecting flights are flamboyant displays of ignorance.

> Bitcoin has neither hyperinflation or hyperdeflation

Measured against a basket of goods, Bitcoin’s value soars and free falls.

Using a 17th-century definition of inflation, which in modern parlance is called money supply, Bitcoin is simply inflationary, but that definition swap concedes that it is a curiosity, not a currency.

Abstract:

> Software is becoming increasingly larger and complex, and companies should be aware of which technologies and platforms allow for higher productivity, that then translates into lower costs, shorter development times, and fewer required specialized resources. This article presents the results of an experiment carried out to compare the productivity of two low-code/code-based software development technologies. The results show that the development and maintenance of software with low-code technology is significantly faster, thus supporting the high potential of this technology. The key lesson is that low-code technology needs to be seriously taken into account by companies because of the potential productivity increase it represents for the development of management information systems.

The most the US has said was when China invades Taiwan, the US will defend them.
> Sure.. but these are sci-fi scenarios.

When you say "sci-fi" scenarios, what does that mean? Just something speculative about the future? Something that appeared in sci-fi media?

People say this as if the fact that someone thought about a scenario that can happen and wrote a story about it has any bearing on whether it's something worth worrying about.

> Also, it's somehow assumed in here that the suggested future super-intelligent AI will actually have the capability to cause catastrophic harm. I don't get where that assumption comes from. We'd have to grant such an AI some set of magical capabilities, which aren't named. Is "superintelligence" a magical ability to do anything?

The way most people define "intelligence" for these purposes is "ability to achieve goals". Which would mean that, if there were any way to cause catastrophic harm, and the hypoethetical AI had as its goal creating that harm, it could do it.

Is your contention that there is no way to cause catastrophic harm to humanity? Cause I think even with my regular ol' human intelligence, I can think of plenty of ways to cause harm.

> Now this is speculative and, to be blunt, kind of stupid

I'm not saying that Yoshua, or anyone, is above criticism. But it might be worth considering that we're talking about one of the leading academics in CS and AI. He could totally be wrong! But accusing him of saying things that are just stupid is not very convincing, IMO.
