Thank you for articulating it, I’ve felt the exact same thing, in both run of the mill flow when coding / gaming / sparring, and the “other flow” you describe in real life threatening situations.

For me too, normal flow time speeds up, and in the other - slows down. You feel detached from your actions - like if I do this it will maximize my chances of survival as I see them now, with no connection or fear that being on the wrong side of the odds might mean your death. You just calculate and do what needs to be done.
I’ve noticed that I also tremble a little bit afterwards, which I attribute to the flood of adrenaline … maybe this is just flow but with adrenaline? (Adrenaline flow?)

I was once driving through a bend of a sharp narrow cliff road, and some idiot truck driver was overtaking another truck, right as I entered the bend … with some quick reaction and placement of the car managed to pass both somehow, but I noticed that the other 3 people in the car all had very different reaction to this situation, - indifference, panic, crying, hyperventilation…

I remember how hard it was to sympathize with them right after it happened, as while I was in this hyped analytical state I just felt it was weird the rest were not calm about it as well.

Maybe it was because I was behind the wheel, but in similar situation as a passenger I would do the adrenaline flow as well, where I would coldly calculate if alerting / helping the driver would increase or decrease our chances of survival… so I don’t know, maybe we all have different intrinsic survival strategies?

I’m just glad I’m not participating in a shooting war where I have to make those decisions all the time, I probably wouldn’t like what kind of person that would turn me into …
> is it cool enough to want to feel a second class citizen, running it on the OS and platform it is not intended to run on?

I'm not a software engineer myself, nor a Windows person, so I don't know the specifics, but FWIW, my client runs production .Net code of the C# variety on Linux, connected to pgsql. It's some kind of web service for checking people's tickets (think airport gates where you scan your ticket to enter), so not exactly a toy, even though it's nowhere near unicorn-scale. It seems to work fine, in the sense that I've never heard anyone complain about anything related to this setup. No "works for me but is borken in prod" or "thingy is wonky on Linux but OK on Windows so have to build expensive workaround".

The devs run VisualStudio (non Code) on their Windows laptops. Code is then built and packaged by Azure Pipelines in a container and sent to AWS to be run on ECS.
I'm not sure why we're digging Hardy Fox up and dressing him in a suit of lights after four and a half years, but if anyone deserves another round of applause, it's the Residents.

The cool thing about being old is I knew of cool bands before they were well known. And the cool thing about the residents is they remain obscure yet popular. The story I heard was they headed out on the highway in the late 60s, headed for San Francisco. But they only had enough gas money to make it to San Mateo. Or at least that's the story people told in Redwood City.

Every now and again if the wind was just right, you could hear a few bars from "God in Three Persons" on the wind at the corner of El Camino and Roosevelt. Maybe you could hear it better from San Carlos.

I'm fairly certain I met some of them when I schlepped my gamelan up to Alameda to get it tuned. In the next room someone was testing out a gamelan they were going to buy by playing Diskimo.

But I was lucky enough to attend their Valentine's Day concert in Dallas as part of their 13th anniversary tour. Dallas sucked considerably less that evening.
honestly i've been on tiktok/instagram since the pandemic, text forums don't have the same appeal as instantly making a video reply and seeing people react to it.
i don't visit reddit/other forums as much anymore - the bot replies and quality of user are super annoying now.
It does not have such a service. In fact, it is prohibited to use the document number for any other purpose than identifying the document itself, even for government entities.
Hate speech is defined by the Cambridge Dictionary as "public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation".

This I believe is the definition being used in the link, not just "basically any speech that you don't like."
That was successful for the 80/90's and actually I mis-spoke, we sold a million and a million were estimated to be pirated

Kafka's friend, Max Brod, talked of how Kafka found humour in his dark works - especially the chilling "The Trial", which he thought a hoot, laughing so hard while reading the first chapter aloud, that he repeatedly had to stop to collect himself.

That's the thing with opinions: they're personal.

I get nags to upgrade to something I couldn't care less about, in an app I paid to avoid these ads and nags, every time I open the app (i.e. multiple times per day) on "promo" days (i.e. any US holiday)

These nags have also been disingenuous, because the price will usually go up on "promo" days so that Apollo advertises a "special deal" that is basically the price it's always been before. It's advertised with a full-screen popup upon opening the app (or while using the app)

If it was no big deal and nobody minded, there wouldn't be a slew of posts complaining about it every time, and the app's author wouldn't consistently ignore these posts and comments as he has done every time while always answering praise and positive comments in the same threads and subreddits.

Selling me something to remove all ads and then showing me your own ads anyway is dishonest. Either mention this at the time of payment, or make it opt-in like virtually every other company I deal with (aka "do you want our marketing material?")
There's a saying in physics that the field "advances one funeral at a time". I don't understand the impulse to bring back artists of the past like this. At best, it's a hollow pantomime, and at worst it can be tremendously offensive too their memory. Moreover, how will the medium move forward if every new artist has to now compete for mindshare with every artist that lived and died since 1950 or so? Not just their legacy works (which is hard enough) but "new material" cranked out by AI.
Elon publicly admitted that the Mastodon policy was a mistake and has since retracted that policy.

WRT the elonjet thing, they have a policy against doxxing.

>Twitter also banned Sweeney’s personal account and his other two accounts tracking the private jets of Donald Trump and Mark Zuckerberg.

Seems like it was applied fairly to me.
> allow access to our songs for AI training purposes if the artist/writer so desires

This (a) means nothing since the copyright holder can already do whatever they want, including licensing the works for any purpose; and (b) is even more restrictive than compulsory licensing which require the copyright holder to license (at a fee) the work.

The solution you describe as a win-win would either create a quagmire of crisscrossing licensing deals (AI need a lot of input, you can't train them on one artist), or in effect create an impenetrable moat for mega corporations such as Disney or Sony who would be the only ones with enough heft to pull it it.

It's actually a lose-lose situation.
This is false: https://twitter.com/deepakshenoy/status/1664098996242006017?...
Also... anyone remember very early Quicktime (maybe around '91) when the standard demo was to show people the video for Moisture?

Finding the right process for keeping notes is as important as finding the right application/tools IMHO
> Are they faster more productive ways though? You're still operating off keywords

It's explore vs exploit (or hash table vs graph lookup); keywords are faster if you know what you're looking for. But reviewing linked notes leads to more exploration about related topics, and walking the graph can still be a reasonably efficient way to find what you're looking for. If you adopt networked notes, you get both at the cost of some notetaking overhead, but it's typically pretty small.

The one thing I hate about some of the notetaking apps is (and I understand folks need to make money) notes are really personal and private and need to stand the test of time. I can't have my notes locked away in a proprietary format or held hostage by some company charging $/mo so Notion is a no-go for me. I also don't really want to get locked into a workflow only to find out that the app is discontinued and then have to reinvent my workflow.

But yeah, networked thought is still cool and totally unrelated to why I don't use typical networked thought tools. Logseq came closest to converting me.
> What does your statement actually mean?

You know what it means. For the second time, the users do. not. care.

> 3 billion active users according to... Facebook?

Yes. According to 'Meta'. Who else has 3 billion daily active users on each of their platforms?

> Surely 3 billion "active" users do not all reside in California.

This is you earlier:

>> How about Meta pulls itself out of social media altogether. Zuckerberg has destroyed all trust at this point. Shut it down. Seriously.

You yourself are not seriously going to tell 3 billion daily active users worldwide and Zuckerberg to stop using Meta's services and to seriously "Shut it down".

Please.
Your definition of email is transparently unreasonable, if you insist it can only refer to what IMAP and SMTP provide. When do you freeze IMAP? Version 1, 2, 4, 4rev1, other? Are SPF, DKIM, DMARC part of “email”?

I said you seemed to be fixing on first-party software because a lot of your arguments about centralisation of power and such and assumed motives of companies pushing JMAP only make sense in that light. I’ll say it once more: by its design, JMAP distributes the power, supporting usable decentralisation better than IMAP/SMTP/CalDAV/CardDAV/&c. Adoption is limited yet, but that doesn’t change this fact.

As for Gmail: you’ll get a second-rate experience if you don’t use a Google client or Google-specific APIs. Dodgy IMAP (partly understandable—when they started, IMAP didn’t support the concept of labels and so they had to make some kind of workaround—but IMAP has very obviously been a second-class citizen through all Gmail’s history). No notifications unless you hold an IMAP connection open (which you can’t on mobile platforms). The necessity of Gmail-specific authentication (or else some users won’t be able to use it at all, and the rest must jump through increasingly-scarified hoops). That’s what Google is pushing. Gmail’s dominance has absolutely involved locking people to first-party clients, and IMAP/SMTP support is a concession. JMAP is nothing like all of that.

One of the most pretentious and nonsensical article I've ever read.
Still waiting for generated content to legally not be copyright able at all. IMHO only move that makes sense. Also refusing to call this AI. All of this is light years away from AI.
Does it really not? I remember a lot of years back everyone was boasting how they can recognize 10 touches at the same time. Perhaps try an app, to see if the limitation comes from hardware or software?

My Note9 is able to register at least 10 separate touches in Chwazi app (just tested). Seems weird a newer phone in the basically same line would downgrade to three.
Yeah, I was all ready to post a scornful or dismissive comment... but first (of course?) I actually read the whole thing and found myself smiling at the truth of it.

I do diligently record things in Apple Notes, since they finally added categories (or groups, or whatever). I used to use Outlook notes the same way. It's really all I need. And I DO truly refer to them, although sometimes it's a long time later and I find way more detail and cool ideas than I remembered having come up with.

But browser bookmarks... these are mostly a waste. I have a big collection of them, again organized in groups. But it is vanishingly rare that I use them instead of just doing a new search.

For me, it's Postgres all the way. I use MS SQL Server at work and Postgres for my personal projects and I was always amazed by its maturity and feature parity with commercial databases
how does this fix situations like "Monica"?

i'm not normally political, but that situation seemed pretty messed up. it was enough to deter me from participating.
The article mentions this explicitly.
I kinda agree with your point, and hate spending time organizing or following some "system" for my notes. Search is great, and is the thing that almost killed my paper notebook.

However, one feature I would really love to have but never seen, is a combined todo - notes app.

I often jot down notes as in "things to note / remember", but also, in the same flow, I'd note thinks I'd need to do. I would love to be able to gather those automatically in a view, and be able to see them as done when I revisit the initial note after marking them as such from the "todo view".

The closest I've seen was some VimWiki, but I've found that fairly unwieldy (though I love the idea of taking notes in vim).
If you're okay with losing the privacy of your notes. A locally hosted model seems more reasonable, though I don't know when it'll get good enough to have the context it needs to do proper search in a thicc stack of notes. Something something vector databases, I guess.
there are plenty of political groups on there, just don't expect to not get downvoted to oblivion in popular groups like r/politics if you are a conservative. That's just the way democracy works and I would guess 75-85% of reddit is far to moderate left on the political spectrum. I also think that like 60% of the users are from the US and Canada so it's definitely going to be US centric. Again there are groups for specific countries and topics there, just don't expect them to make it to the front page.
Does /use/local/share work? or ~/.local/share?
If it goes same way as other open sourced models it takes about 5 days that someone will get it running at m1.
There is also LibRedirect (https://libredirect.github.io/).
The Apple Store has malware in it too.

User data is well worth $99 a year. That is not and never will be a deterrent.
I am so excited to see what happens when Japan forces all closed source software and Disney cartoons into the corpus out of fairness.

Seems like there should be no complaint, right? It's not like anyone can see the Windows 11 source code, it's only being used for training.
It does actually seem to remember where you were up to after you do the first simple one.
Well Tesla has significantly devalued as of late, is facing tremendous regulatory scrutiny, just recently suffered a massive recall, and is likely never going to deliver on its key promise of achieving practicable self-driving car, and by all estimates from anyone else in the industry, is being completely unreasonable in going about it predominantly via computer-vision.

so as an initial, I don't think your argument is reasonable at all. it goes against so of the most basic and recent facts about tesla. I can understand feeling different because you like him and he makes you feel fuzzy or something like that. but hard to say you are being reasonable - when you don't offer reasons!

> The parent of my original comment is spinning a narrative about Elon's accomplishments because of his personality quirks.

This is absolutely the boundaries of human relationships and is not better defined in the space of mathematics or physics, or even game theory, to the point you boil things down to being rational/un-rational. rational is basically the lowest boundary here, it means possible, it doesn't mean likely.

>There is nothing reasonable about pretending like Elon isn't accomplished because you don't like him.

I guess it depends on what you think accomplished is. I certainly think he's achieved a certain kind of status in society, I'm not sure if it's an accomplishment, but the amount of money that belongs to him is certainly very large and something anyone else would like to have.

Besides devoting too many pages to parsing, I think compiler practitioners have low opinion of the book because it isn't useful for them. For example, the second edition claims to be updated to modern optimization techniques, and in a sense that's true, but it is useless because the book isn't using SSA. For practitioners, SSA is not optional these days, and everything about optimization in the book needs to be updated to SSA to be useful.

But you are probably not a compiler practitioner. Then I agree it is a good book to learn about compilers.

Thankfully the mynumber card is supposed to not be compulsory. (I do have one)

What is awful is just the ridiculous number of errors I find when going through the process. My card in theory has the wrong expiration date, (checked in, they said the expiration date on the card is always correct so IDK) but it is 10 years off, when comparedto the ones owned by the rest of my family who got the card in the same year.

They also keep absolutely screwing up the data security in relation to the mynumber cards. Just last month there was another data breach. Sources are in Japanese but I can dig them up if you want. But I think it's run the entire gauntlet of every conceivable issue.

Data stolen online? Check

Wrong insurance information, either inputted wrong or linked to the wrong person? Check

Swapped birth certificates? Check

Printing service provides sensitive documents for the wrong person? Check

I'm just lucky enough to not be the one who got his data stolen... for now.
>There's no detectable reasonable right-wing online

substack is where all the online right wingers who aren't unhinged reside imo
The reason certificates expire is because historically the quality of the generators was known to be poor. NotAfter ensures that a new certificate is created with a better generator every now and then. Today that is not really a problem.

Public CAs are not very secure as NSA proved and I am not sure why there is no better alternative yet.
Asus Zenbook Pro 14 Duo review
laptops have witnessed a remarkable evolution. They no longer look and feel, or offer similar experiences, and brands are striving to offer the most distinct features to entice consumers. With the advent of cutting-edge technology and the ever-expanding range of applications, laptop brands have embarked on a quest to design purpose-built devices. The Asus Zenbook Pro 14 Duo is a device that seems to be an outcome of this quest.
You can do that with Obsidian. Also, the DataView plugin allows you to run arbitrary queries over your notes to create new views
People are inviting it to write code all the time. Anyone can hook it up to anything.
I should add that some of the risks mentioned in that post can be mitigated by proper user behavior (use a sufficient key length, limit the lifetime of your key). But then PGP is sufficiently complex and error prone (in using it and apparently in its technical complexity), that I don’t believe that it scales to everyone and their grandma using it.
Fun factoid: domestic movie ticket sales have been declining for more than 2 decades at this point. [1] We reached 'peak movie' in 2002, both in terms of tickets sold and real gross revenue. That's in spite of the population increasing by just under 50 million since then. 'Highest grossing' and other such accolades since have been driven entirely by inflation and ticket price increases beyond inflation.

The point is that there's often this online discussion with one guy saying 'modern movies suck' and the other saying 'nah, it's just what the people want.' But what's happening is quantifiably not what the people want. Hollywood (and AAA games) have become almost entirely creatively bankrupt, mostly due to going to the extremes of risk intolerance. They want creative endeavors to be more like factory line productions where a product is reliably created, ready to go on a tight schedule, and matches well to profit projections.

The reason there's an obsession over things like visuals is because that's one of the few things studios believe they can "improve" in a formulaic and safe way. It's not what people want let alone demand, it's simply an area movie (and AAA) companies see as being a low risk target for "improvement." Movie studios likely see ChatGPT as their savior. In reality, it will probably be their executioner.

The json thing is an API request, so it will come under the new API rate limits.
I’m perplexed that you seem to think JMAP is connected with any efforts to disrupt or destroy email. It’s completely the opposite. It’s been developed by people deeply involved in the email space and heavily invested in email being good and useful, mostly people who make their living from providing email services.

Seriously, a lot of what you’re saying just doesn’t make sense and is internally inconsistent.
Oh it's far better than the buggy default official Reddit app, it's not even close, marginal is terrible descriptor.
This is something I have seen from many different sites. Someone from mostly the right wing decides to make an alternative to Reddit or Youtube or whatever, just to avoid the restrictive nature of these larger platforms, It is surprising just how quick the alternative turns into the worst possible version of right wing.
Show us your cheat sheet...
No, i suggest reverse these kinds of advice and DO THIS instead.

Why ?

Because IF it's said not to do this, it should not be implemented in first place.

This is a trap.

For example, "Don't use table inheritance", you should always use this to reuse the table definition. If not, what's the alternative ?

Note: I am the author of this article.

The Apple developer fee has little effect on malicious submissions, what it effectively does is preventing free (open source) software. You aren’t significantly safer, you are merely paying for software that would otherwise be available for free. Note that Google also has a developer fee for the Chrome Web Store, far more moderate however.

What helps is consistent human review, like Mozilla used to have it. But Google established that automated review should be enough, so there you are.
Don’t get your hopes up, because the article is a complete lie. If you look at the original Japanese source, the minister was just reaffirming the current legal status. Neither politicians mentioned in the article expressed any hint of endorsement. The fact that they were even discussing copyright and AI likely means that more regulation is upcoming.
I don't think you understand what's being proposed here. I expect that, as today, the AI output will absolutely be copyrighted and strictly protected against any attempt to copy it by others. However these protections won't apply to the inputs a company will use to train the AI.

...and oh yeah, if the Sam Altmans of the world get their way you'll need a license from the government to run your own AI model.

We might go from a regime that "tends to favor capital holders" to one where the IP rights of the capital holders are largely the same as today, while yours are effectively non-existent.
