This is what I use and would recommend. the nice thing about it is that you can activate the switcher using keyboard and then hover over any window without even clicking on it. when you release the keyboard shortcut, you switch to that window.

it also allows me to hide certain apps from the switcher. like if you have a terminal, you might wanna set up a keyboard shortcut for that and forget about it.

No, the joke is on us MacOS users who insist on its terrible Alt-Tab behavior instead of leaning into the gesture support.

But I do believe the gesture support has fundamental limitations:

1) you have to take your keys off the home row to render gestures. Not good!

2) gesture window switching / Exposé breaks down when you have too many windows open: the thumbnails become unrecognizably small.

3) to solve the above problem, perhaps you suggest using spaces. Well, MacOS's spaces support is also frustrating. It's impossible to turn off the animation and time lag switching between spaces! Sure, it's only a half-second, but a half-second repeated hundreds of times adds up. And spaces's interaction with alt-tab is totally broken: if you're using a given app (say Chrome), switch to another space where Chrome is also open, and then try to alt-tab back, it doesn't take you back to the last window you had open. Sad!

Depending on the laws of the state you live in, divorce is not exactly a thing you can pick off a shelf.

Sorry that your world is so deeply broken where blood relationships don’t mean anything to you. Family is family and that matters more than friendships. Even if you find greater acceptance in other social circles, family is always going to be different.

Joining and leaving relationships isn’t the only kind of relationship that exist. Some are bonds that you cannot break. Some are contracts that you enter into. And some are transient and fleeting, like you described.

Virtually all relationships are a trade. No trade means no relationship.
I'd recommend reading the actual bill if you want to see how (apparently) nuts it is.

From my reading of the preamble:

1) A 'digital journalism provider' (DJP, e.g. a newspaper) submits a notice to the platform (e.g meta) each month

2) The platform must then remit to the provider some fraction of all its advertising revenue.

3) The platform is forbidden from 'retaliating' (???) again the DJP by (for example) not linking to it in the future

That third part cant possibly be constitutional.

I still want macOS to "borrow" (Read: steal) window snapping from Windows. The mere existence of MultiView on Apple TV gives me hope that someone is at least thinking about how to implement such a system.

The trackpad gestures is a major reason that Mac is my primary OS while Windows is there when I have to use it.

Even on my "desktop" Mac setup (which is really just my laptop in a dock) I have a full keyboard and the Magic Trackpad joined together with that tool from twelve south.

Thinking about it more I feel like I just use Windows and Mac differently. Most of the time I am in full screen mode (so any windows is just a quick swipe to the left or right) and when I am not I have multiple desktops or I have split full screen mode. Plus using 3 monitors I really just don't find myself switching all that often.

For me Windows feels like the worse management when I get used to what Mac has to offer.

What is useful? What should it be? Don't say bytes because there is already an idiomatic way to get bytes: `len(bytes(s, enc))` which is both more correct and explicit.

Maybe it should just return None because the only useful thing is probably how much "space" it occupies on screen in a fixed-width font, but that's too difficult to know.
I've found rcmd quite useful for window switching. It lets you use the right command key plus another key to switch applications; e.g., right ⌘+s for Safari. It can also display a switcher that shows the letter associations.

> If those people need to already have a copy of the image to extract a copy of the image from the generative image model, then I'm saying the argument that the model itself is infringing seems weak.

AFAIK, they don't need that to extract it.

> Instead, you already have to have a copy of an image to find an embedding.

You literally always need a copy or a suitable imprecise hash of the original to test for infringement. How else would you know which copyright was infringed? But it's not a matter of a 1-1 match (see below).

> However, it's a case-by-case thing.

Of course, it's a case-by-case thing, as the OP also indicated. It's easy to show mathematically that these models cannot compress well enough to contain all training images. The question is how much they infringe on some of them.

Bear in mind that it is not necessary at all to create a perfect copy of an image the infringe copyright. As I've stated above, even a lousy and mostly incorrect rendition of a pop song in a street cafe may infringe copyright. The makers behind the song "Blurred Lines" lost a lawsuit because the cowbell rhythm in the background was similar to that of another song. That and the "feeling" was similar.

The same is true for images. What counts are criteria like artistic originality, intent, subjective similarities, experts laying out similarities in style, and so on.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I understand perfectly well what you're trying to argue for. All I'm saying is that it doesn't match the reality of how the law deals with copyright.

Practical Dependency Management for Developers
every line of code is tech debt its tech debt all the way down
Gosh windows 95 was great - especially the ability to navigate the OS from the keyboard alone - At one point I knew W95 so well I could literally navigate the OS by hand without a screen.

An aquaintance at one point changed all the graphics settings to black - so ever screen, menu, text etc was black and you couldnt see anything. I was able to help her by using just the keyboard to navigate to settings and restore defaults. I did it from memory and key-clicks.

Also, it was a fun OS to fuck with people in the nascient realm of virus' of the time, there was setting the desktop as an image and hiding whatever was actually on the desktop so nobody could click on things... remote access BSODs etc.

I'm on an HP flagship gaming laptop now and it consumes probably 1,000 times more power (watts) and Compute to just display this single text entry form on HackerNews than any W95 machine back in the day...

In ~1997 or so I had to shutdown a branch office in San Diego and when I did so, we had a number of plastic sealed boxes of brand-new W95 on 3.5" floppies... I kept them for over a decade and then sold them on Ebay as collectors items for $75 each... and wrote a tale about how they were computing history.

But I had a PDA in 1993 which was by CASIO - and it had a little spreadsheet app on it, and I made a Gematria translator app in it - so I could type in any words and its formulae would spit out all the Gematria numbers for a name (the Celestine Prophecy was a famous book of the time)

That PDA was similar to this one, but less sophisticated - and I had that thing for ~25 years... but unlike OP I didnt take out the battery and it ruind the device.
You'll mangle the string if you index and search by code points too, when the string contains the emoji this article is about, or for that matter an "e" following by combining acute accent.

The string will be fine if you only move to, split and concatenate at indices outside those grapheme clusters. But that is also true when indexing by bytes or UTF-16 code units.

So in some senses, indexing by bytes is just as good as indexing by code points, but faster. Either way to avoid mangling strings you need to restrict the indices of whatever type to meaningful character boundaries.

If you have decided to avoid string indices inside grapheme clusters, there comes the awkard question of what should you do when editing text in an environment rendered with font ligatures like "->" rendered as → (rightward arrow). From one perspective, that's just a font. From another, the user sees a single character yet there are valid positions (such as from cursor movement and character search) that land mid-way through the character, and editing at those positions changes the character. Neither is clearly best for all situations.

Great article!

Microsoft Press' "Software Estimation: Demystifying the Black Art" is a good deep dive into the subject.

Found it via a talk by Jakob Persson at Drupalcon many years ago, he recommended a template-based spreadsheet approach where you estimate a project by splitting it into components and giving each a "confidence" level from 1-5, then adding fixed padding for various items like project management (20%), deployment (5%), buffer for unforeseen problems (20%) etc that essentially came down to "2-3x the initial estimate" but with some calculations to back it up, and made estimations systematically easy.

His slides are here: https://www.slideshare.net/jakobpersson/the-science-of-guess...

The sheet template is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13MGHIxFOtbJ2Qxygc_Gx... - have used variations of it with great success for many years beyond when I shifted away from Drupal work.

Noting that his more recent blog articles now recommend a value-based pricing approach for the consulting model (which I agree with and also shifted to in my freelance days).

Good to see more writing on estimation for engineers, Agile's story points model is nice for teams doing the work, but in many kinds of work when you're running a team there's someone above you who signs the checks that wants to know what something's going to (approximately) cost before they sign off on it.

I purchased witch several years ago, and my main complaint is that it takes a long time to show all my windows if there's a lot of applications windows, and this did not use to be the case. It's fine if I'm switching between windows in one application, but if I say, want to show all the windows open on my computer, it takes 3+ seconds to display the interface.

I discussed it with the Many tricks support, and apparently it's a problem with MacOS
such as having the mac docked and connected to an external screen with the original screen closed.

There are of course keyboard shortcuts to access expose or spaces, but then what's the difference between alt-tab and that?
What I was meaning to say was, "throught western history". I don't know enough to make an universal claim. In Europe, though, aristocracy was at the top of society and they thought work was a domain of slaves. They thought highly of fighting in wars, but otherwise prefered a life of leisure.
AMD re-hired Jim Keller in 2012, and his team started development of AMD's Zen cores (that are the foundation of Ryzen/Epyc) before Dr. Su came on board.

Credit for the decision to put Keller back in charge of AMD's CPU core design goes to AMD CTO Mark Papermaster.

I would give the launch of products based on Zen as much credit for AMD's turnaround and present success as I would give Doctor Su.

1) That would also be true if you are switching to nearly any GUI based app that you need the mouse except for maybe if you are switching to a text editor but I doubt every time you switch apps you are immediately typing something, so not really sure I see the problem there.

2) True, maybe I just don't tend to have a ton of windows open at the same time.

3) I can't really speak on how it behaves with alt-tab however with the track pad it is as fast as you swipe and tied to that swipe. I can slow it down or speed it up.
> The issue with 1 is that it only works until you pass an array into a function by pointer, then the macro no longer works. GCC even has a warning for this.

Even worse, even if you specify the argument to be "of the type" array, it will actually still decay to a pointer. Basically, this macro will only work if you use it in the same function the array is defined.

Also wet conditions, and worn concrete, etc. Worse, the control systems behind ABS systems are not equally effective at all speeds either, and typically have regimes where they introduce significant amounts of yaw oscillation during maneuvers. That's not good for the panicking driver and can result in them being unable to control the vehicle as effectively.

Note that these are all very niche concerns and I think ABS is a fantastic safety feature, but it's still a compromise to improve the averages. This is true of virtually all safety technology.
In principle you could feed HTML into a transformer model and train it to do tasks such as classification (is this an "open access" scientific paper?) or extraction.

In practice the current models have a limited attention window so you can't feed a large HTML document into them. Chunking the document into smaller pieces is not attractive because you really want to have the start tag and the end tag of an element in the same window.

Long-range transformers are rapidly improving and somebody will soon "crack the code" and come out with something that will make the job easy even if it is slow and somewhat expensive.

Other approaches such as graph neural networks and systems based on classical machine learning are also in development so you will see some pretty awesome tools coming online.

A year ago or so when China did a major crackdown on ed-tech and the private tutoring and education sector I read a lot of outraged stuff about it, but this kind of thing is the logical end result. A 17 year old writing a fake paper on chick-fil-A, 'peer-reviewed' by some non-existent degree mill to get a leg up on completely opaque college admissions.

Just make it simple. Stick with the SAT tests. There is nothing more equitable than standardized, rigorous testing. It will not be perfectly equitable because people do differ in their abilities, but they do differ less on that front than their parents wallets do. Which is of course why it's the more privileged households that love lobbying for these bogus qualifications instead of just doing merit based tests.

Just remember a simple fact, intellect is distributed on a Bell curve, money follows a power law distribution. Whenever you're concerned that merit based processes may have unequal results, anything that can be turned into pay-to-win is going to be worse.
