Now you know how I feel every day using services from companies like Google and Apple that are in a foreign nation thousands of km away, and the laws are different and largely unknown to me :)
It's less clear than that - because this is a supply side issue.

Inflation is prices going up. Prices go up when somebody selling something realises there are insufficient competitors and they can mark up pretty much as they please and still clear their inventory.

The solution is more competitors, which requires fiscal policy to move people from producing for consumption to producing for investment. Because the market won't do it on its own. It's too busy making a killing.

The problem the West has, that the Chinese don't have, is we have developed a visceral dislike of politically selected investment. Those extracting rents from supply constrained markets love that of course.

The price of the belief that investment can only be private is that the Chinese will ultimately win out.
Technically that is what chrome MV3 is. The issue with that is they also heavily restricted any kind of content blocker by removing most APIs with a declarative api

When WWII ended, the changes it made to the world never reverted to the prior status. Also, the rest of history since then has been completely dominated by the effects of WWII and its continuity including the very next wars such as conflicts in Israel, Korea, cold-war, and more. There was no point where the issues really ended, but we do reasonably say that WWII ended. What came next and later was something distinct enough that we consider it something else.

What we have in covid reality today is a continued world with covid existing and a ton of irreversible changes that covid time made to the world. But that's not denied when people say the pandemic is over.

While there is a massive amount of Harry Potter fan fiction online, I would still assume it's dwarfed by the amount of synopses or articles discussing things which happen in the books or movies.

Deepl translation: (why does deepl not attract the same attention btw)

In a letter, the Personal Data Authority asked the maker of ChatGPT, OpenAI, for clarification on how it uses personal data to train the underlying language model.

The regulator is concerned about how companies such as OpenAI handle such, sensitive data.

The privacy watchdog also wants to know if the questions people ask OpenAI's chatbot are also used to further train the system.

The authority says it also has concerns about the information the system shares. That may be "inaccurate, outdated, inaccurate, inappropriate, offensive, or objectionable," according to the AP, and may take on a life of its own. "Whether and if so how OpenAI can rectify or delete that data is unclear," the authority states.

Follow-up steps unclear

Earlier, the Italian privacy watchdog attracted much attention with a temporary blockade of ChatGPT that lasted about a month. A spokesman for the Personal Data Authority does not want to say anything about possible follow-up steps, but says that nothing has been ruled out. In other words, not even a ban.

OpenAI has not yet responded to the letter; the deadline is June 23. The Personal Data Authority says more actions will follow. What those are is unclear.

According to the watchdog, 1.5 million people in the Netherlands have already used the chatbot in the first four months of the year.

> I'm criticizing the latter

I think if you remove the latter there won't be many people left playing with cryptocurrency. Which would be fine from my perspective (a lot fewer people being ripped off in what appears to basically be a huge unregulated casino). And it sounds like from yours too.
Facebook used to do basically that - they gave you a $1000/month stipend if you lived within 5 miles of the office. A lot of other companies do it in more informal ways too, eg. I've heard of companies turning down applicants because they lived an hour and a half commute away from the office.

It has some mixed results. It's very positive for traffic and for climate change - if everyone goes from a 30 mile commute to a 5 mile one, that's 6x fewer vehicle miles traveled, 6x less car CO2 emissions, and 6x less traffic. But it also drives up rents around the office to crazy-high levels. Facebook's policy basically just boosted rents in Palo Alto by $1000/month (when they were there), and then it and the office location was single-handedly responsible for the gentrification of East Palo Alto (after they moved).
> They're effectively the same process occurring to different degree. A high side is what you get when you arrive at a point of unrecoverable inflection in such a wobble.

Simply not true? Lean a bike in a turn and jam on the brakes will give you a low side. No wobble.

Loss of friction holding the bike up through the turn. Went from static to kenetic.
I might have been imprecise; in 2000, the claim was that the tallying of votes led to an incorrect result, whereas in 2020 the claim was that a massive number of illegal votes were cast and therefore caused the result to be different than it otherwise would have been. The former could easily be attributable to something like a spreadsheet error (like in TFA), whereas the latter would require malicious intent to commit election fraud. It doesn't seem surprising to me that alleging criminal intent to submit huge numbers of fraudulent ballots in what would have had to be several states would cause a larger public response and interest in the details of how votes are counted than arguing that a single state (Florida) should have to count the ballots again to verify the final total.
Thanks, I just watched a fragment of that video.

I'm amazed by how much more realistic the space fights looked in the first three Star Wars movies compared to the CG stuff.
This sounds like a bad way of saying things. If everyone agrees Reddit isn’t a great company then the optics of saying you pay nothing to host on a platform/company that isn’t that good doesn’t seem user focused etc.

The other persons rationale make perfect sense. Any one can justify anything they want as much as they want, profits still went to Reddit.

I stopped modding Reddit by 2019. My politics evolved. I didn’t think it made sense to provide Reddit with free labor.
In that case I usually just leave if it's not a site I absolutely have to use
I have a team split between 5 cities and timezones using modern software development work practices. I offered to comply with my employer's 2 day in-office mandate, but made it clear that on in-office days I wasn't going to work extra hours to support my teammates who were offshore. I was given an exemption.
For millennia governments survived with cash in circulation. Crypto is no real threat to their existence.

Regulating it with a heavy hand will do more harm than good. Those innovators will just move offshore.

Thankfully for Reddit they found the product market fit 10 years ago.

They're just a bad software company.
When Apple or Google control the endpoints (the password manager apps on your devices), they can get the keys at the ends if they really want to.
This is such limiting minded thinking. The whole 2d space is visible in the DOM. Fuck yes of course 3d space should also be a user visible integrated piece of the hypermedia document. Ideally experiences should blend the two! There was the whole Mozilla Flight of the Navigator demo in 2009 where video elements were nicely integrated into a 3d scene (sandboxing concerns killed this then but with element-capture spec it should be possible again!). This stuff needs to be integrative, not separate universes, dumb opaque canvases driven by code.

Fonts & bitmaps seem like bad counter examples to me, disingenuous. Whether we use every outside resource as an excuse to say this doesn't need to be hypermedium, or whether we look opportunistically to build hypermedium as we can seems like a clash of dispositions.

I can try to check out this TR TP2 but I really think you are being extremely resistant to what makes the web excellent & throwing chaff. There's a lot of shallow prejudice that html should be kept small, is only for X or Y but not Z, and we keep getting better and better & making more & more excellent componentry that defies this eternal limited-minded doomsaying.
Not at all. Credit availability is a function of creditworthiness of borrowers, which is largely a function of available collateral. All the Fed does is change the price.

If I get charged more interest, I simply charge more in wages/profit to cover it. Which I can do because there is a tight labour market/product market.
Don't they have "appliance" bulbs in your locale?

These are incandescent lamps designed to work in ovens, a territory unlikely to ever be colonized by LED bulbs.

Other than the slightly smaller wattage, they should fit your needs just fine. They work in normal sockets.
???

4 x 1" filters, each with a surface area of 10 square megamicrons, provide a total of 40 square megamicrons when assembled into a box.

A single 1 x 4" filter strapped to a fan gives a total of 10 square megamicrons.

How are those the same surface area?

Ah! I get it, because of the pleating. I guess it depends on whether the greater incoming airflow interferes with itself once it gets squeezed between pleats.
The post quoted did indeed nail it IMO.

But I don't think those who pulled the trigger on buying a whole PC in addition to Mac just to game are the audience here: those people clearly value PC gaming a lot, spending that kind of money and going through that much trouble having the necessary setup at home, taking space and time to build and maintain. Those who care that much won't be satisfied with the state of Mac gaming and continue owning those PCs.

It's for those who would like to play on Mac but currently don't play at all on anything because games they'd like to play don't work on the only performance computing device they have - that Mac.

The second category of people I'd like to add are those who were really on a fence between getting a Mac and a PC (probably laptop at this point, as laptops are sufficiently similar for such a fence to be realistic, desktop PC and desktop Mac are very different machines in comparison), could have gone either way, but would prefer a Mac slightly, but also wanted to play games - not enough to own 2 computers, but enough to begrudgingly choose a PC over a Mac just for that reason.

Those folks are likely to buy a Mac instead next time they buy a new computer, which is probably going to be years from now, for some - years from the point in time when gaming on Mac because actually accessible and good, not immediately on spot.
Is there some kind of standards-document available for what makes an office comfortable? I love the collaboration of office work but I also am extremely uncomfortable with bright light, a lack of good food, and a computer setup dictated by others. It’s not enough of a distraction to want to walk away from the job — the work is great and the engineers are smart — but there’s this general lack of care and attention to detail in my workplace that makes it far inferior to my own home.

A set of core values to share with my office manager would be great. Another idea would be to find some kind of training for them in how to turn an impersonal office space into a cared-for home-from-home.

Something like Patty McCord’s / Netflix’s employee handbook, but for lighting, desks, colors, and espresso machines. It sounds so ridiculously trivial and entitled, but in business we are always trying to stay ahead of our competitors yet when it comes to the workplace the competition is gorgoiler’s home, which is stiff competition indeed.
The variant doesn't seem to be spreading in the community.
The LED flash feature was great, but it was never a make or break feature for a phone. And as mentioned, the earliest LED flash equipped iPhones just used this as a camera flash for night photography, not as a flashlight. You would have to download a special app to leave the light turned on.

The original iPhone had accelerometer for orientation based UI, you're correct that it didn't have gyroscope (or I guess GPS, although it looks like from Jobs's presentation that it was planned). Another great feature. Still doesn't change the fact that the original iPhone had a dozen or so killer features. Everyone of course wanted the iPhone to keep getting better, and from 2.5G to 3G to 3GS to iPhone 4, there was a rapid succession of progress.

You're criticizing the 2007 iPhone for features that virtually no phone had in 2007 (and certainly none did all the things that iPhone did well). I can't name one that had a gyroscope or selfie cam. The top models back then were things like the Motorola Razr and the LG Chocolate:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_Razr
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LG_Chocolate_Spin_(VX8550)

People often forget how quickly the 3G version of the iPhone was launched after the 2.5G. It took them less than one year to come out with the 3G version.

The iPhone was jaw dropping when it first came out. A lot of sales were held back in first year merely due to the lack of 3G support and high pricepoint (along with AT&T exclusivity).
that would not be right
Where were you? That's definitely not the norm in Europe.
Literally not true.

The hate brigade is still on Reddit.

Yes, if you value these things that's a reason to buy a house, but it doesn't make it a good financial decision
No, we couldn’t. Good luck switching your email style and coming off as impolite, for example.
They would get in trouble with the general public. Which seems fine with me.

(And if the general public doesn't care, why should laws in a democratic country care?)
> But go back 20 years, and you predate Linux RCU. The OS Developers weren't laughing at the problem then.

I believe it was the DEC Ultrix dev team who, reportedly, amused themselves after hours by making transparencies of Linux source code, projecting them on a screen, cracking open a few beers and having a laugh at the idiot mistakes those college kids made -- mistakes, of course, that you can avoid by choosing a real Unix OS.

It took a while for Linux to actually be taken seriously outside of home-lab tinkering.
Those are all pretty general platforms. A city community is a specific niche that could work anywhere including on its own.

Hey!
Thanks for the balanced feedback, all totally valid.

(1) I'm self-directed in my learning and always knew what I wanted my teachers to do, but everyone's different. Definitely going to add more choice of content (and not just roleplay.) I have a very structured and successful program to learn English and will try to adapt what works well in it to Gliglish.

(2) You're right! The speech recognition and LLM layers are separate. I actually do have data about the quality of pronunciation, I'm just not using it yet. It's a matter of adding a layer to handle it. Basically, all the building blocks are here and I need to get them to play nicely together.

(3) It's the same issue as with ChatGPT on which it's built. Part of the progress will come from OpenAI or similar endeavors themselves, part from further checks on my end as in (2).

I just don't share your pessimistic view about the future of such tech though (well, if I did I probably wouldn't have started the whole thing! ) Once you put ChatGPT into a corner, there's usually no hope of it getting back on track. BUT with clear context and prompts on things it does well it's just incredibly useful! Again, is the glass half empty or half full?

As for this use case, there's tremendous value in being able to practice. Just talking to oneself in the mirror or journaling in a foreign language is already super productive and this is it… on steroids.
Lol. Same as me
That's a great counter point. I wouldn't know from first hand experience in that case but there are some GREAT communities.

I feel overall though, the tone of discussions and echo chamber sentiment just feels different now. Especially on say, r/all.

I usually only browsed occasionally in anon mode when seeking a respite from "reality", and overall it seemed to go from lighthearted discussions and a lot of really cool, "check this out"-style posts to a sea of outrage baiting, word for word reposts, and outright flamewars. Eventually that seeped in to a number of subreddits in my meticulously tailored logged-in experience.

I was so disappointed by the erosion of something that once filled me with immense joy and from which I have gleaned a wealth of valuable information, I just wrote off the entire thing.

I'm not even sure if it's manufactured in my own mind. A while after I found reddit went through some things that have substantially reformed my general outlook; I am a lot softer now. I'm probably just too sensitive but in my experience, most people there just don't treat each other well.

I can certainly understand how those in a community like r/blind would be predisposed to kindness.

I'm not sure if there's any factual basis in my reasoning, but I feel in general groups facing greater than average adversity tend to value treating others well.

On the other hand, those in more advantageous positions seem to lean in to entitlement, and are disproportionately enraged when they feel taken advantage of... It's funny/sad how that happens.
> where I suspect the population is deeply aware that its own economic advantage is tied directly to its military advantage.

I wouldn't be so fast to use the word "deeply" there.
Have you considered changing jobs? Bad performance reviews 'never' go away. You also probably view your work negatively as it caused you to crunch for extended amount of time. By changing workplace you could also potentially open yourself to possibility of developing new friendships at work. Also, urgency feeling from changing work could revive some interest in work.

Whatever you do, good luck.

Just based on what the comment says, they're distributing a compiled FFmpeg, presumably not with source or attribution. I can't check to see if there's information in the app but there's no mention of it on the store page or anywhere else I can find either.

They could be fine, but going through the checklist FFmpeg provides for legal considerations (not legal advice), they seem to be doing the opposite of all of them.
It’s not better, they just hooked up a calculator to it. Like OpenAI’s plugins, but more opaque and less useful.

What happened to Google? Touting this as some achievement feels really sad. This is just catching up, and failing. I’m beginning to think they are punching above their weight and should focus on other things. Which is.. odd, to say the least. I guess money isn’t everything.
I’m in agreement. Summers are challenging to have the kids (7 and 10) around, but it’s a challenge worth having. They are young once and I’d like to be there for them. even if the office is five miles away, I’m more productive as a programmer and a dad. Seems like a win/win.
Why do you have a persecution complex?
Literally everything except nuclear and maybe geothermal is indirectly solar power. Nuclear is indirectly dead-star power; fossil star fuel. Unless of course the abiogenesis theory is correct, in which case oil and at least some natural gas are also dead-star fuel.

“Just as well off” implies having equal parts, or I missed something?
Really? You don’t think Reddit can “track you” and use usage data when you’re signed in to Reddit with a third party app?

Apollo doesn’t track you. But Reddit is tracking you either way.
States can choose when their primaries happen by law, and the parties can choose when and where their primaries should happen. Entertaining things happen when they differ. The Democratic party cannot force Iowa and New Hampshire to not have their primary and caucus later in the year, but they can threaten not to count their delegates if they go at the wrong time.

The sobering thing is, this is not nearly the dumbest part of the American electoral system.
It ends up being a fallacy of composition in a system that is supply constrained.

What keeps prices under control in any market is that somebody with supply capacity loses out and doesn't use that supply capacity - because the price achievable doesn't make it worth using that supply capacity.

That's the issue we have at present. There is insufficient spare supply capacity available to be brought online if prices go up. The solution is shifting consumption to investment, but at present the short term view is seen as more lucrative than the long term one.
There was a group of people in a meeting room working on separate parts of some larger project. I had to call one of them. You think that guy would get off his ass to walk away and talk to me in private? I spend the time helping you out and you don't even offer me that?

No, I had to hear 3 other people having a conversation louder than his call with me.
I think the author is unaware of a) how to create crates easily
b) that workspaces exist to organize crates

I wouldn't pick Go as an example of how to build a module system. Far from it. ML languages yes.

Anyways, adding a single line command per compile unit package is not a "cost."

Edit: P.S. Also the module logical system in Rust is way much more expressive.
... Unless you care about that and use a Yubikey or other physical security key.

There is absolutely nothing stopping you from doing so as long as your Yubikey supports WebAuthN (the latest do). You are prompted to use another phone or physical security key if a resident key isn't found on your device, and even if it is, you are given the option of doing so instead of using the one found.

This is not a hypothetical feature or theory or something, it's part of the spec and is implemented. It's as practical as it gets.
You are literally a troll.

It's already a thing to some extent, at least for heads of states. Kim Jong Un is known to have a personal toilet that's taken with him on foreign trips: https://www.businessinsider.com/kim-jong-un-brought-his-own-...

I've seen similar claims made on the Internet about the U.S. president and the French president, although these ones aren't proven. Macron did refuse a COVID test on his trip to Russia in early 2022 presumably due to concerns about DNA collection.
Yeah, I really liked my Samsung flip phones, but made the mistake of buying one of their smartphones. So much uninstallable garbage. Never again.
A lot of people use accessibility mods that suck to go without. Not having ItemScroller causes me physical pain after just a few minutes of clicking around in chests.

I'm just going to stick with 1.19 and the mods I downloaded several months ago until this matter is sorted out.
Or it might be fatal. You don't know that. What we do know is the general construction of a sub, which is that of an "egg". It's built to withstand extreme global pressure (pressure from all sides at once, like water does). But as I'm sure you've noticed, eggs don't hold up very well against needles.
