Aside from JPEG 2000, which did in fact gain traction in a few verticals, the grandparent might have also confused it for JPEG-LS (1999), JPEG XR (2009), JPEG XT (2015), or JPEG XS (2019).

Honestly I think the biggest risk to adoption of JPEG XL might be this prior brand dilution.

I have the same feeling. Smartphones are amazing tools when properly used and all of them come with extensive parental controls to counteract the bad usage patterns nowadays.

Keeping teenagers away from Internet and mobile apps will only turn them into digital illiterates as the time passes. Teenage is the time to make mistakes and learn with them, and that applies to all the digital junk too.
Proving My Compiler Code Incorrect with Alloy
Translation: I was wrong but I'll pretend I'm right.

Extend the timeline out as much as you want. Sweden still has a lot more cumulative dead per capita. And you are simply lying that Norway had increased fatalities and so just shifted it in time. The gap between Sweden and Norway slightly increased by May 2023.

Spare me your opinions and standard talking points after seeing data contradicting Sweden was some shining star of stellar policies due to GBD principles. A lot of our "leaders" like DeSantis forgot that pretending your expert in things you know nothing about and finding the most partisan hack doc you can for Surgeon General doesn't mean you're making correct decisions.

We could also talk about morbidity but that would make your weak argument even worse. After all, quality of life is SO important during the limited lockdown times but let's not measure significant decreased qualify of life for millions of Americans from Long COVID. And lets all hope there isn't significant subclinical issues like increased thromboembolic activity (frequently seen post-COVID) that will rear its head later.

I don’t know, but I suspect that when dealing with immersive experiences there really is a breakpoint that matters deeply. It’s sort of like “retina” screens. You can improve pixel density, but there is a point on the scale where you really stop seeing the pixels and that gives you the “ah ha” moment.
Setback for Bell Canada in $400M Movie Piracy Lawsuit
What will happen if I use more than 1.2 Terabytes in a month?
Are you sure? Because my understanding is, in the past what has happened is that some other force causes a bit of warming, and then the oceans heat up, which causes co2 to bubble out, which then causes more warming, which causes more co2 to bubble out, and so on. So co2 is an active part of the picture but it wasn’t the independent variable, so to speak. Whereas now we’re mining fossil carbon and squirting it directly into the atmosphere, which is new.

And climate scientists are very smart and have worked out how much the added co2 amplified the original warming, and have been able to work out how much warming you would get by doubling co2 levels, which appears to be around 3 degrees C.
Oh wow, that still exists! What a sparse and abysmal end.

I wonder if they even know it's still there? Probably doesn't use enough bandwidth for anyone to notice. Probably just a few people taking a trip down memory lane to re-read things posted 10-20 years ago.
Which ironically just generates more car use, because car drivers male 1-1 associations between people and cars and congestion, and then use their cars to get away from people.

Somehow, not owning a car, I rarely feel like there's too many people around, perhaps unless it's peak tourist season; I just associate the miserable parts with cars alone rather than people in-general. In fact, it's almost always a positive contribution to my day-to-day life. But when I seldom borrow a car, I remember why they feel this way.
> HR throws out everyone without a degree; if they are desperate they hold onto the certificates in another pile. Not a choice, no say, it happens, unilaterally just about everywhere.

In my experience working on healthcare products, tools like Jira where you can't store PHI don't present serious obstacles. Usually you can document the steps to reproduce a defect using fake data. You're going to need it anyway for the automated test script to close the defect. And if you do need PHI at some stage of the process you can link to it from the Jira issue instead of storing it in Jira directly.
It’s likely the price of one of these will drop faster than land in Hong Kong though.
Ah yes, but those apps appear to be just some kind of iOS type thing, so at least for me I couldn’t really use them for productivity. (The lack of coding tools on iOS also really kills any possible productive uses of my iPad in this way, unfortunately)

Yes, and I'd like to add a #4.

4. Publishing is a side effect of writing. So write as much as possible... Keep spooling the brain to disk, noodle on many bits and bobs, email friends those half-baked thoughts, let them accrete into more baked thoughts, GOTO 3.

#1 through 4 is how I re-started blogging: https://www.evalapply.org/posts/hello-world/

And perhaps a #0 too... giving myself the okay to blog. In a "permissionless" medium like the WWW, all that is required of a person is to make up their mind and slam that publish button.

As a fully abled person with strong body and ego, what I've taken out of the experiences is the humbling effect of not being able to trust my own senses or conclusions about the world.
It's what I call "Mental Handicap Experience", but with a positive twist where coming out of heavy experiences made me re-evaluate my cognition, surroundings, life choices under a completely different light.
I am not sure everyone would agree with me calling this the famous death of ego. But each of these experiences felt like my previous self has died and a second person came in to my body to reevaluate the state of reality. Even though, in hindsight, I don't think I have changed much in a long term, I recall positively the short term effects on quality of my life.

It is targeted at developers and companies who want to build apps. But there will of course be a huge contingent of early adopters.

The reason it is priced at $3500 is because Apple does not have the supply chain to build more of these things. There is simply no point pricing this at $300 and being perpetually Out of Stock which would devalue their brand for no benefit. Hence the Pro tag and release at WWDC.

Eventually there will be a non-Pro version that everyone can buy.
When I was in college in 1991, I used to get Computer Shopper and spend hours scouring it for a laptop (not a common thing then). I wanted one so bad, but was sooo broke you can't even imagine. There were always random resellers getting rid of old laptops and I'd spend hours trying to figure out which one I might get. "That 286 with the flip-up half-screen black and white liquid crystal display is relatively cheap... but so clunky. Maybe I should save up for a 386? But all the affordable ones have horrible passive LCD screens that ghost. Wait... maybe if I sell a kidney..."

I never ended up ordering one, but I remember fondly the hours of dreaming about it.

They're just advertising the tech and the platform. Probably so people could come up with some real use cases and apps for it... otherwise what's the point of introducing it a year earlier.
Is this a deliberate flooding to stop troops?

Donald Knuth used a pre-release version of Photoshop (at Adobe headquarters after the employees had gone home for the day) to process the images for his book 3:16. He was using multiple Macs to parallelize his process, and there were frequent crashes. This was back in the days of Macs with 512K of RAM which makes your 128MB Mac seem positively capacious by comparison.
I'm personally highly skeptical of the claims he's making—or that extraterrestrials are here in any capacity—but to take a stab at your questions:

- the folks who do believe in UFOs would say these crashes happen worldwide, but it's countries like the US/Russia who use their influence to swoop in, recover the pieces and then mount a coverup.

- UFOs have been sighted over urban areas, although it's rarer. If I were a UFO pilot, I'd probably avoid cities for the same reason the USAF doesn't fly classified aircraft over urban areas either (at least during the day)

I don't know what his angle is here—fame, mental issues, a genuine belief that he's onto something. I'll admit the recent focus on these things has aroused my curiosity, but like I said, aliens aren't at the top of my "credible explanations" list.
Assuming this isn’t just a big psyop trying to scare US adversaries, and that UFO’s are real… the US was the first to detonate nukes, and on its own territory, which might explain some of it. Maybe the UFO’s were investigating how scientifically and technologically advanced humanity was becoming, and naturally focused on nuclear tech as a leading indicator.

The 1936 Berlin Olympics TV broadcast might also have alerted them to humanity, and travel time of the broadcast plus travel time of UFO’s to Earth might have resulted in them arriving right around when nukes were invented (if they’re from, say, Alpha Centauri which is 4 light-years away).

The US and Europe also have free press where things like this are more likely to be publicly reported than in say, the USSR back in the day, or China under the CCP. Which in conjunction with the above may explain sightings maps like this one, where sightings are most frequent in the US and secondarily in Europe: https://updb.app/map?zoom=1.00&lon=149.0917&lat=37.3003

Also, if you search number of reports by date ranges, look at what you get:

1-1943: 1566 sightings reports

1944-2023: 294,641 sightings reports

Two orders of magnitude more sightings reports in the 80yrs since nukes were invented, vs in the almost two millennia previously. Obviously we also had more robust and technologically advanced media in the latter time frame, so that contributes much to the discrepancy. But still a huge discrepancy.
> This is a sad but inevitable consequences of tech people having no grounding in ethics. And really no education in or respect for the humanities at all.

I'm going to bet a significant portion of "tech people" have some background in the humanities. After all, many of us are the children of "The Matrix". Also, what does a background in humanities have to do morals or morality. The most evil people in the past few centuries have had significant education and respect for the humanities.

> justify the destruction of the commons online since the creation of the banner ad

It's not the "tech people" doing that. It's the people with a 'background in humanities' pushing for the destruction of the "commons online". Tech people are doing what they are told.
It's a display and a computer.

It is the first version of the Vision Pro and I would expect it to fail due to its price.

The second or third version maybe something worthy of the consumer having a look at. This is directly competing against the Quest Pro, and the Vision Pro is still at prices like the HoloLens.

Apple will probably announce a 'Lite' version which will directly compete against Meta's cheaper Quest VR headsets.

It's actually loathsome how bad urban planning infrastructure is in most of the U.S and Canada. It's deliberately so bad that in many cases, even in small towns, it makes more sense to get in your car (truck) than to walk to the next store over.
I've been fully spoiled by PCPartPicker [0], which just invisibly filters out parts that aren't compatible with the components already selected for a build. The idea of having to manually keep track of every compatibility check at every component interface sounds like a path to debugging hell. On the other hand, that makes success a far stronger nerdcred signal.

It's not a given that the parents are addicted to phones. It's also not clear that access to large amounts of information driven by selection pressure of algorithms is automatically a good thing: some of these informational memes drive children to do harmful things (for example, the tide pod challenge).

The regular Apple Vision will be a pair of AR Glasses
As the name "Vision Pro" suggests, there will be a cheaper, simpler version of Apple Vision some time in the future. My guess is that Apple will announce Vision around 2025, after assessing feedback to the Pro version.

I believe Apple Vision will be a pair of smart glasses similar to Google Glasses. Vision will not offer the full experience that Vision Pro offers. For example, no surrounding audio or curved virtual monitors. It will be mostly an addition to the iPhone experience and unlike Vision Pro, Vision will have more battery life and will be charged wirelessly.

The battery life of Vision will be similar to the first version of Apple Watch. Apple will lower the resolution to save battery, so no ultra-HD 4K display as we saw in Vision Pro.
Nothing good will come of this for anyone.

Kids brain and adult brain are different. The same goes for body - this is why some medicine cannot be taken by kids.

As an example (I am not a doctor) the neocortex is not fully developed until maybe 20s.

Thus what works for you as an adult is not 100% sure to be working for children.
I'm not a military expert, but it seems like this will benefit the Russians, who will now have time to reinforce and strengthen their positions in Kherson Oblast on the south side of the Dnipro River at a time when Ukraine has been gaining momentum, and possibly considering crossing for a counter-offensive.

From a purely positional perspective, this is a big advantage for the Russians, who benefit from a more prolonged conflict because they have more people, and need more time to resupply their logistics.

Not great.
Sure, but the problem with the internet contra books, is its content and lack of gatekeeping.

The traditional publishing industry has a massive set of gatekeeping mechanisms around publication. People love to complain about this, but it significantly helps in ensuring the quality of information in a published book, especially from established publication houses, remains high. The internet basically has no such mechanism, and even worse, couples that with the ability to discover new bits of this low quality information at extreme rates — further, platform algorithms optimize for engagement, not information quality and the next thing you know your loved ones are running around telling you earth is flat.

You'll never be able to block every website. This is the crux of the issue, outside of the fact that constantly bombarding yourself with short fragments of totally unconnected, decontextualized experiences (a la instagram and tiktok feeds) probably directly aids in becoming something like a lite-schizophrenic.
The problem is fundamental to the spreadsheet data model. Spreadsheets use the "big bag of cells" data model, where anything can go anywhere. The people who enjoy spreadsheets like this data model, it is very quick to get something up and running. Those of us who don't like spreadsheets hate it. it encourages the mixing of data and code. it promotes coding via copy/paste and all the opportunities for code/data addressing mismatches that go with it. But for me the thing that drives spreadsheets from mildly annoying to outright dislike is that there is very little done to keep data rows intact, it is very easy for items in a row of data to end up where they shouldn't be. All I really want is row security... So I ended up replacing my spreadsheets with relational databases. the UI sucks in comparison. but at least my rows stay intact.

You'd need to eat that much for what to happen? Radiation sickness (since you mention that afterwards)? I'm pretty sure people are more concerned with increased cancer risk than that. Not saying that this is a valid concern here either, just that radiation sickness is on the far end of a spectrum of dangers.
Benefits the Russians who have been dealing with a Ukranian counter-offensive, and commentators have been wondering if Ukraine would attempt to cross the Dnipro and mount a counter-offensive to cut Crimea off from the mainland.
