I presume that the Defense Department's experts are well aware of these things. The article is sparse in details. Maybe they did test this new capability on "military-grade" drones, whatever "military-grade" means. Military technology isn't always superior to civilian, commercial technology, as anyone with even a passive familiarity with government acquisitions could attest. Both Ukraine and Russia have resorted to modified commercial drones in the Ukraine war. A North Korean drone was once recovered that was nothing more than a piece of crap with a cheap camera mounted[1]. Really, the only serious and adversarial competitor in the drone space is China.

Wait, it's predatory pricing traditionally understood to be aimed at consumers/customers. Applying the term to sketchy pricing practices aimed at competitors is a bit novel in my book. I feel like words are being misused here.
The documentation section here applies to so many products I've battled in the past.

> The command supabase db remote commit is documented as "Commit Remote Changes As A New Migration". The command supabase functions new is documented as "Create A New Function Locally." The documentation page is beautiful, but the words in it just aren't finished.

Great documentation is such a force multiplier for a product. It's so worthwhile investing in this.

Don't make your most dedicated users (the ones who get as far as consulting your documentation) guess how to use your thing!
Because sometimes something like sky + telescope leads to more than just peanut butter and jelly.
Because very few people ordinarily use encryption on a daily basis (and it some countries it is illegal), so using encryption in a visible way is itself a beacon that attracts suspicion. The suspicion is likely to attract more undesired attention from authorities in this situation. That alone could be fatal to the goal or the person even if the encryption is never broken.

So better to hide completely the existence of the message. This is a method of exfiltrating messages without being noticed.
given the number of actual incidents involving shooting down drones in recent months, it might have been nice to include right in the title that this was a demonstration, and not an actual deployment against an enemy.
Those are some good ones... especially the places that have several different monorepos, as well as a bunch of other repos too.
How is chaos theory fundamentally different than Prigogine's notion of self organizing systems, and is it really a better model than the latter?
I work in this space (language & sequence modeling) and I also know people who work in the self-driving space.

They have little expertise in language specifically. Relative to almost all other tech companies, they have a very small amount of the DL practicioner share.

Self driving is a completely orthogonal problem and Apple is mostly relying on classical techniques there, not DL. Hardware groups are not modeling groups.
How would you even discern this delay from all the other delays happening before you're done booting, when there are so many other natural variances of a couple of milliseconds here and there? Every "on metal" boot is unique, no two are exactly as fast, and certainly never within 1.98 milliseconds of eachother even in the case of a VM with lots of spare resources on the host. You're painting a too pretty picture of this.
You might have been colloquially correct. Microwaves travel at the speed of light, but my microwave that heats up a Hot Pocket can't. :-)
Having a microVM handle a rare endpoint and then exit is often cheaper than leaving an EC2 instance running constantly. An EC2 instance also has extra administration needs. At some scales the savings can be significant.

Shaving ms off the boot of that VM is a performance boost of that lambda (or whatever the cloud vendor calls it).
If it was an obviously better layout across various metrics, the world would have switched by now.

I don't believe this "worse is better" non-sense. Quality does break through eventually.

The issue is this doesn't look toward the future. With growth, the standard of living currently enjoyed by those in the US will look pitiful in 100 years.

Any proponent of de-growth should spend a few years in countries like Sri Lanka preferably in a village without access to the last 100 years of medical tech, without access to the internet, without modern water treatment.

It feels okay to advocate for degrowth because we notoriously underestimate how much standard of living increases as a result of growth.
And also accountability to the citizens who are financing all this. A 773$B black hole in the budget would be undemocratic and rife for embezzlement.
Fair enough, thanks. I don't think there's a pressing/mainstream ask that justifies the maintenance burden that I imagine this would cause. I've seen people mentioning sparingly that they'd like to use Bevy for Xbox and Playstation development. Another cool use case was to use Bevy with crankstart to develop games for the Playdate with Rust. Again, probably not sufficient demand beyond curiosity or a hobby.

I suppose this is already being discussed within the community and they're capturing the same concern you're bringing up: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6581

There's no standard build system. Think about how you add a dependency in Rust, Go, JavaScript, even Python.

Now do it in C/C++. Absolute nightmare.

Look at how many header-only C++ libraries there are out there. They're making compilation time drastically worse purely to avoid the need to faff with a shitty build system. It's a good trade-off too. I use header-only libraries where possible. They're convenient and popular.

Actually vcpkg seems to be going some way to fixing that but I have yet to convince my co-workers to use it.
Are we not allowed to simply have academic conversations and raise points for the personal education and edification of others (and not necessarily limited to those who are the immediate parties to a conversation, but also with respect to the community at large)?

A downside with these off-QWERTY keyboard settings is that (as he mentioned) the shortcuts are often designed for QWERTY keyboards - things like X C V, sure X might be cut, and C is kinda copy, but V is not paste.

To really "go whole hog" you have to either remap the shortcuts to be the same positionally, or rethink the shortcuts from first principles.
Interesting. I wonder if there is a design that could be fully autonomous, requiring no outside connectivity.

" Apps that want even more control can move to using full-on Durable Objects (which will soon support a SQLite database per-object)."

Can you elaborate this little bit more? Im using DO today and i have a bad time sharding my data (works, but i hate it);

So i will have the option to use the standard store or/and SQLite?

If so, i dont can keep with my DO (because i have control of everything) and use SQLite for things that is bigger than what the value store supports.
It really depends on your approach to learning. If you're just learning in the rubric style, taking a checklist of topics, assignments, like school, yeah that will reduce your creativity. But if you're just exploring and playing with new things that pique your curiosity, the way a child learns before school, the opposite is the case.
They knew all about CO2 and its warming yes, but Schneider calculated that the effect was offset by other pollutants being put into the atmosphere. He had to because, as the NY Times article states clearly, at that time thermometer records showed that temperatures peaked in the 1940s and "have been cooling ever since".

Nice try on defining proof as "the people accused of lying have to admit it or else it's not proven". That's not how it works. The NY Times story is high quality proof that Yale's claim about the past isn't true. People were told by the most trusted authorities that not only was the world getting colder but that this was well understood and the trend would continue. If you don't like that article you have to provide equally compelling counter-evidence, not insist on some stupid definition of proof selected only to avoid cognitive dissonance.

But hey, seeing as you want more proof, here's NOAA - the US government agency - stating in 1974, two years before the NY times story that "Some climatologists think that if the current cooling trend continues, drought will occur more frequently":

https://realclimatescience.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/NO...

Global cooling wasn't in doubt, only its effects. Here's a meeting of the National Science Foundation in 1972:

"The present cooling trend, which reversed the warm trend of the 1940s, is still underway"

https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.178.4057.190

It goes on to list some pieces of easily understood evidence, like "pack ice around Iceland is once again becoming a serious hindrance to navigation" and "warmth loving animals like Armadillos are retreating southward".

Today we're told the NY Times, NOAA and the NSF were all reporting on a made up "fad" no scientists believed, and there never was any cooling trend.

In this article, Yale is lying to us about the past. Why is that?

Years (to be a little hyperbolic). FreeBSD still doesn't have a good pid 1 story. It still has a very simple /sbin/init that just spawns whatever shell script happens to live in /etc/rc. That shell script essentially does a topology sort of service dependencies and then starts each one individually and serially.
I wonder if some of the perceived benefits of alternate layouts, like Dvorak and Colemak, are due to users being forced to consciously touch type.

IMO, Sun's open source release of OpenWindows was the kick in the butt that allowed Linux to become a "serious" alternative to the Unixes. (It made Linux boxes as X terminals pretty viable, saving tons of money on Hummingbird Xceed licenses!) There weren't many open source windowing/desktop alternatives back then, so having one that had been professionally and well thought-out by the likes of Sun gave Linux a UI that looked and felt like the big guys. (Up until that point, most Linux X environments were just using the painfully minimalist TWM (Tom's Window Manager)).

I switched to Colemak "cold turkey" last year and I couldn't be happier now that the transition is complete. I too never got as fast as I did with qwerty but it's so much more comfortable that I don't care.

I probably made a mistake by not practising typing much on places like keybr.com and about three months in I was starting to think that I had made a horrible mistake because at that point I was slow at both qwerty and colemak but by six months I was totally happy that I stuck with it.

I didn't struggle much with keybindings but I did end up creating an alias cs='cd'. In terms of using other computers I got a programmable mechanical keyboard or I just hunt and peck in qwerty now.
is the manual itself good? guess we will have to go through it.
> take a HS grad who taught themselves to code as a hobby over a fresh CS grad 8 days a week.

And he'll write you a function where the week does have 8 days!

In all seriousness, this is great if you can get a good hire at that level who is motivated and cheap enough employees that it's worth it to spend a lot of time coaching him.

But unless you're shipping low complexity CRUD apps or are in a very low cost location, it's generally much more cost-effective to hire from serious CS programs.
Crash test results in the U.S. are ranked relative to other vehicles of roughly the same size. They aren't measured on an absolute scale.
If you use the CLI, `supabase start` spins up a Docker instance built from all your migration .sql files [1].

If anything, I think the admin dashboard encouraging directly doing operations on the database is the biggest weakness of Supabase. I would much prefer being able to lock it down to purely CI-driven migrations.

Long-term we'll probably end up with the console in userspace, which should naturally normalize scrollback behavior across all the kms drivers.

There's already kmscon but I haven't looked closely into what prevented that transition from moving forward as the default. Presumably there's a bunch of edge cases a kernel based console doesn't suffer from, like having to avoid oom killer or getting paged out/becoming unresponsive on systems falling over etc.

The console process will have to be something exceptionally configured, pinned memory, realtime priority, oom-immune, all that jazz.
> fingerprint, face scan, probably your retina scan, maybe your voice identification

Technically, those are "things you are", not "things you have". A Yubikey would be an example of a "thing you have".

I think the ideal is that you're supposed to use a hardware key that uses a biometric like a fingerprint to unlock it. Then the passkey itself is the "thing you know", the hardware key is the "thing you have", and the fingerprint is the "thing you are".

But in practice, that's pretty onerous, so the passkey implementation being discussed eases up on those requirements a bit.
Nearly all image generating models can output abusive content. Thats part of the reason huggingface put safety measures in place.

I presume people tried that with chatgpt as there is demand for such content.

Then there’s also the training content. All forums and online platforms have some shape or form of abusive content. Filtering that can be very traumatising because it reveals what some among us think and do. Such content is not rare - it sometimes surfaces on this forum as well but to a lesser extent.

The frequency of such content is a good indication of what prompts people might be coming with.

Congratulations, you figured out that as a friend of free societies I am "biased" against small groups of inacountable and people that excert power of powpulations that cannot vote them out of office without a bloody revolution.

Calling this a "bias" isn't the flex you think it is and probably tells more about your own world view than about mine.

As they say, "Someone really wanted our initials to spell out 'SHIELD'."
I believe what I used to do was set it up where CTRL worked to also revert my keyboard to QWERTY mode, so all your muscle memory for shortcuts on QWERTY still work, but typing is in the other layout.

At the end of the day, I found I'd sort of bound "Copy" or "Save" to a key combo in my mind that was somewhat unrelated to the specifics of where C or S were on the keyboard for typing, so it didn't really hurt my uptake of the new typing layout.
I'll give another perspective from the comments already made: in this conflict you have as sides one technologically very advanced rich, democratic Western-aligned country against poor, badly organized oppressed people who are not even allowed to have a state. To me it's absolutely clear from which side we should be expecting constructive steps towards peace - and the fact that we're not seeing them says enough.
