When the complaint is the lack of trustworthiness and of sticking to avowed principles, being untrustworthy and abandoning one's own principles in response is not a wise course of action.
I probably meant towards the end of the 90s, early '00s, when it started to be cool among some young people to say "I don't have a TV. I don't need to be bombarded with ads and other nonsense." I know I did.

"Blinkenlights" always takes me back to the BeBox - which actually had blinkenligts for CPU usage and disk activity on the front "columns" of the bezel.
Salieri was a master of his craft in his era, the artistic father of Schubert and Beethoven. He had nothing to envy Mozart for, and for most of their lives Salieri was preferred for a lot of gigs for the emperor.
Salieri's portrait in media is crazy because historical documents tell a very different story (the Mozart family was very much convinced of the existence of an Italian cabal putting down composers and directors who weren't Italian) until Salieri's senile delirium of stating that he poisoned Mozart, so you should call him Mozart, but I sense he doesn't fit neither of them.
I tried out Yunohost and I do like it in principle, however what really started to annoy me was that they decided to roll their own sso, and my impression is that it's not very good (there are some threads on the forum criticising it for being quite a mess IIRC). The issue is that because of this it doesn't always play ball with apps which allow for SSO functionality, e.g. the seafile desktop app does not work with yunohosts SSO.
I wish they would just switch to an established system like authentik, authelia or keycloak. There were some issues about this in the tracker but I think the suggestions were shut down pretty quickly.
Reason I dropped chrome around 2011/2012, they removed the options to have tabs laid vertically as not enough users used it (it was an hidden option and badly implemented).

Tree style tabs is the main reason I've used firefox since.

Tabs are really a bad design, maybe made some sense with 4:3 monitors but text was horizontal back then too.

> UBI is also a no-go in terms of "universal". It's just too unfair.

What's unfair is to take away someone's welfare once they finally land a minimal pay job. That diminishes or removes the incentive to actually find a job.
As someone casually following Rust and haven't touched it or C++ in probably 5+ years (but keeping tabs in hope of coming back to that world), I feel like a lot of decisions he mentions are what made me optimistic about Rust adoption/positioning itself as a modern C++ replacement. So I kind of agree with his conclusion - his version of Rust would be much less interesting to me, and I think a lot of it's current users. eg. I only started playing with Rust once they removed green threads. Zero cost abstractions are a major selling point.
It's the small things.

1. My hallway lights come up at the correct intensity and light temp for the day every time there is motion. They also turn off at different speeds depending on the time of day. (at night, min brightness, yellow light, turn off after 30 seconds - someone is just waddling to the bathroom. in the day, full brightness, 6500K light, turn off after 5 mins)

2. I can control my AC remotely with my phone and it automatically manages itself depending on the price of the electricity (I'm on a hourly market-rate plan). If the price is low, it'll over-cool my house at night and cost for the morning.

3. Voice-controlled profiles for complex setups. Gaming = pull down the curtain on the window that shines on the TV, turn off a few lights that glare on it. Movies = all curtains down, all lights off. Even the one from the bedroom, because it shines to the couch in full darkness.

4. Smart switches that turn off lights that don't have a direct electrical connection.

5. A switch beside the door that turns off all lights and a few appliances in the kitchen that have no business being powered when I'm not at home.

HomeAssistant does the following for me:

+ captures all the weather stuff into one page (internal + external sensors combined with "official" weather reports)
+ automates the little fan heater to warm up the bedroom pre-bedtime if required
(also provides all the controls on a page)
+ captures the oven temp probes onto a page (means you don't have to walk into the kitchen to check)

I can do all these individually but that'd still be a "smart home", just more faff for me.
What’s funny is, it used to be a social norm here (in Ireland) for you to not be allowed get a phone until you were 13 or so (usually: just before you went to secondary school).

Of course, people from fucking Greystones would make out that this is a revolutionary new concept. I can’t see it lasting, they will be back to letting the iPad raise their kids within the year.
They are.

We caught "community builders" making disingenuous posts trying to pass reposted/translated content as OC to generate engagement. After getting caught doing so with their admin accounts they tried again using normal users.

They also had the bright idea to spam users via DM using a poorly templated message (verbatim "insert u/USERNAME") to promote localized copies of low-quality subs (the kind of trash you see on r/all).
Obligatory XKCD: https://xkcd.com/1319/

Also: in some cases it really is faster just to make your own rather than learn the Home Assistant Way Of Doing Things.
> I too would have loved something more towards ML than C++

I stopped paying attention to the language around 2012-2013 or so when the direction clearly steered towards the latter.

You may want to check https://austral-lang.org/ out.
I don't think it's going to happen with only a couple languages with good support. Messaging is fundamental enough that you don't want to swap libraries if not necessary, which means I won't choose it if the languages our products use are not well-supported. Just as a couple of examples:

- Node (& JS in general) have three implementations. One[1] mentions in the README that it's a hacky wrapper, the interface isn't final and the implementation is slow - for 9 years now. Another one[2] without support for RPC hasn't been updated in 4 years, and the last one[3] for 10 years.

- Lua[4] has been updated sporadically over the last couple of years, but the README mentions it ONLY works with LuaJIT v2.1, not with current Lua versions.

Currently it's hard to justify using it in a long-term project, considering how much broader the language implementations for Protobuf are. They also aren't perfect, but there is a lot more buy-in.

My point is that if bullies weren’t making life hell for kids without smartphones, they’d be making kids’ life hell for some other irrelevant reason. I see no reason to believe that the bullying situation will be made worse by removing phones from the equation.

If I had a time machine, maybe I’d give my seventh‐grade self white socks and boxer shorts and see if that made any difference.

> The problem with AI-generated content

It sounds like the author's main problem with AI answers is that they are purely textual, and the AI is unable to verify them. Does it mean that the stance will change if the AI bot is able to run its code before submitting the answer? Aren't there already AI agents available that can do just that?
Indeed. For me the most infuriating part is the amount of low-quality questions that could easily be answered by AI before submitting the question. They definitely should embrace AI and generate an answer. If you think that question isn't properly answered, include why the AI proposed solution is wrong and let humans answer it.

As for the correctness of the solution: that's why the voting system and tickmarks are there. Wrong solutions would ideally be downvoted and never marked correct, I don't really see how AI is making a big difference here. Moderators today aren't running the answered code either.
Those are not new phones. You can do most of those restrictions on modern phones right now.

I'm not sure why you're putting all those requirements on an idea that can be self enforced in a community. We're commenting on an article where a community implemented a phone ban (not even covering everyone if I understand correctly)

> Is this an intervention in the economy that other companies will do?

Relevant companies already did most of it. Don't wait for the industry to rescue you.

Search for "(your phone type) parental control" and you'll find how to do that right now. Write it down in simple words. Tell other parents. It starts with you.

Cloudflare's tunnel and similar solutions might make self hosting semi-reasonable(For anything where one can accept the third party routing).

I wonder if people will experiment more?
Actually, a minimal magnet link only contains the infohash which "points" at just the info section of the torrent file. The info section contains the name, list of files and SHA1 hashes for all pieces, and the private flag.

The trackers are outside of info section, I assume so the list of trackers can be modified without effecting the info hash.

Though, some magnet links include an optional xs parameter which points at an http url containing the .torrent file, which would include the trackers.

In my experience, you don't receive the trackers from other peers (though maybe other bittorrent clients can?). However, if at least one peer you discover via DHT supports the peer exchange protocol, and has the trackers, your client can quickly query all the relevant peers.

That's definitely the sound approach. But there tends to eventually be a few gadgets here and there that have clear benefits. Not the whole voice-controlled whole house lighting effect things that might be the typical showcases, but for example controlling two aircon units with different manufacturers in one place instead of having to use either to remotes or two apps. Because the smart tech tends to creep into peoples home whether they want it or not these days. Maybe the aircon comes without a remote (the app is the remote).

Most obviously then use the manufcturer's default setup which is each manufacturer having their own "smart" apps for their gadgets. What's worse is that each of them tend to think that their apps and products should be at the center of the stack, so each manufacturer of window blinds, air cons or routers have their own (terrible) closed version of Home Assistant. But nothing properly integrates everything and you are left with one app to control your AC and another for some lighting and a third for your garage door.

So when I use Home Assistant it's really because I want to use less smart tech. I want very few smart features but I want to use just one app for the smart features I do need, and I want to avoid using an app at all if I can help it. So I don't want to dig up and use 10 apps for gadgets around my house. I have zero interest in voice controlling anything. For example I want the lights to switch off when I leave (arm the alarm). I want anything that would be an alarm (Fridge too warm, smoke detector beeping) to also go off in my pocket. That peace of mind stuff. That's easy with HA.
I have tried for a client who wanted to install open source app in server with sandstorm about 3 or 4 years ago, it is just very slow at the time. Hope they improved that since.

I was at the sidelines when Rust 1.0 was being made and I think it got into an llvm induced feedback loop. Slowly turning into C or C++ with other features but the same type, object and memory model.

Part of the reason was Rust's desire to show itself as a direct competitor w.r.t performance, I think.

We are, slowly but surely, approaching a point where worl is no longer a feasible way to distrubute wealth of a society to everyone. Reasons are automation, efficiency improvements, limited growth and, yes as much as I hate it, AI.

Once we reach that point, as a society we have to answer the question of what happens to those people who find themselvesbout ofbwork. And those left with dull and dangerous jobs, usually the underpaid ones as well.

As long as you are a proponent of unlimited capitalism and still have a job, not varing is one answer. Caring about more than oneself, or taking a more long term view, aiming for some kind of social net, and UBI is an option, is only prudent. Too much social unrest is recipe for disaster, and ultimately revolution (history has examples for that as recent as the Arab Spring). Smart ruling classes want to avoid that, e.g. Bismarck who invented the Prussian / German to combat a raise of socialist ideologies.

Not smart elites, and wannabe elites, optimize for their own short term benefit. As did French nobility once.

Exactly. Free speech has always had limits. Threats are speech, yet illegal, for good reason. Same goes for blackmail, slander, and probably more.

I think it makes a lot of sense to treat speech that riles people up against a specific, vulnerable demographic, in a similar way. Because we've seen what it can lead to, and we still occasionally see people act on it today. To claim that they were acting on their own and not at all influenced by the environment of hate speech around them, would be dishonest and blind.

Unfortunately the edges between such hate speech and legitimate insult can be blurry, and maybe we should make that distinction more clear.
Modern C++ _is_ actually a mess to be fair. Overall it's still an improvement on pre-c++11, but when looking at it end-to-end it feels awfully disjointed.
FUD. ALL the regulatory activity mentioned in the article is related to "high-risk" AI systems, which are specifically:

- where the AI is part of a safety system, and where that safety system already needs to undergo conformity assessment.

OR

- where the AI system poses a significant risk of harm to the health, safety or fundamental rights of natural persons - for very specific use-cases (page 122-125 https://www.europarl.europa.eu/resources/library/media/20230...).
> UBI would, and should, replace current welfare schemes.

It can't. There still needs to be a safety net for people who don't use their UBI to buy food or shelter.

And then you're back where we are now - some sort of safety net for people who don't have food or shelter.
CoCs only deal with the community part, IMO. Licenses can say about so much more — Even coding activities.
Why do people want to pad their rep? I have nearly 14K "rep" on SO, never had any positive effect on my career whatsoever.

Also, theoretically (never happened), if someone mentioned their exceptional SE profile on their resume or their cover letter, I'd for sure ask them some details from the topics they suggest to be experts on.

For adults or teenagers I agree, but many of Dahl's stories were intended for younger children, and I don't think content warnings or contextual notes help much there. I would oppose editing the stories of for example HP Lovecraft this way, but for children's books, I think it's entirely reasonable.
The US is nowhere close to the level of corruption in Vietnam.

It’s pervasive in every police interaction, every interaction with government officials, to the point you cant get by day to day without paying bribes. Even in everyday things like getting a passport or registering your residence, let alone major interactions like buying a home or starting a business.

And it’s widely accepted by both the people taking bribes and giving them that it’s just “how it is”. It’s upfront, in your face and very few think it’s a big deal.

The US (or other Western countries) are nowhere close to that.

Yeah, I also ran off of RPI4 for a few years, along with MQTT, Nextcloud (+SQL), photoprism, bitwarden and whatever needed for proxying via nginx. I only migrated to better hardware because I wanted to browse my pictures faster, photoprism solved that even on RPI, but I wanted faster indexing and offline face recognition where RPI turned out to have too little RAM.

On normal load, my RPI would still have room for other containers.

Having HA within a container was a feature - not too much to configure and everything is isolated, so I can still run other services from RPI. And easy upgrades.
that ...,1,2,1,.. in the middle bothers me, nobody wants to watch three in a row that does not include all three, i'd rather have a duplicate triplet, or at least include the case as another potential bound, or classes of orderings where perhaps some numbers of elements have these defects while others don't.

This article describes a problem but gives no solution.

It mentions caloric restriction but nothing about fasting. And fasting is a form of caloric restriction but it’s not really the same - see this video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2iCVKRxsgE0&pp=ygUldGhvbWFzIGR...

The 36 hour fasts I do are so much easier than trying to eat small portions consistently it’s absurd.

I lost all my extra weight and didn’t even eat as healthy as I was prior to fasting. Serious fasting is like hard exercise for your metabolism. When you exercise, would you rather go hard and push yourself or would you rather go through the motions and not work up a sweat? I think of real fasting (24 hr plus) as intense workout for your metabolism.

And it’s much easier than I thought if you know the tricks… mainly take prebiotic fiber to stop insane hunger. Drink lots of tea. And take pink/mineral salt if you get a fasting headache. If you want to know more of the science why it works watch the YouTube vid I linked. That guy has like 5000 videos about fasting, it’s so much he should probably do a fast of making YouTube vids about fasting.
