It's not as failsafe as glass.

I guarantee you Mercedes or Lamborghini would _love_ to have a fully enclosed interior with screens instead of windows, but it's a critical safety feature and anything that makes it less likely to work is just not happening.

Congrats. This looks excellent. I have tried the frontend ones like Webflow and Bubble and they are all clunky, not meant for any serious work.

No code for the backend actually might be the better usecase so I would love to try it out / see how it evolves.

One concern I have here is local development.
The album Getz/Gilberto is named as such because it's a collaboration between Stan Getz and João Gilberto. Astrud was João's wife at the time, and her presence on the album is really the consequence of happenstance and luck.

It seems cruel that she would be paid so little for her contributions (even including any benefits she accrued from being married to João). But at the same time...

...surely she benefitted massively from the exposure? I doubt she would have had nearly as successful a solo career had she not performed on Getz/Gilberto. It's certainly how I discovered her, which led me to her other music. I wouldn't expect her to thank Getz or the producer, but it does seem to have worked out okay for her career.

Anyway, here's my favorite Astrud Gilberto song: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-HxJ0J5QnCk

Microsoft Is Bringing OpenAI’s GPT-4 AI Model to US Government Agencies
This sort of question comes up a lot when people are talking about big social media sites and there are two answers, both related to scale. First is that things really do just go more slowly when you are larger. There are more stakeholders and greater consequences to change. You don't change anything without measuring it first through flagging and limited a/b releases, and often those a/b tests actually fail to show a reason to release the change since the stats show that even though you think it's an improvement, it actually has a negative impact on key metrics.

But the second one is that while the site might seem simple and straightforward, the way it has to be engineered to handle the massive scale of a Reddit (with over a billion active monthly users) makes it very, very complicated internally. I'm not familiar with Reddit specifically but having seen the architecture at other places of similar size, I can tell you there's a ton going on behind the scenes to make it possible to reliably serve that many users and that makes major changes very complicated, involving multiple teams, and lots of planning.
Yep. If we ever manage to remove the humans from the battlefield, the battlefield will simply move to where the humans are.

Anyway the point of war is to destroy the civilian infrastructure and the population that operates it, so they can't support an army. Which is kind of insanely circular because the army is there to defend the civilians and the infrastructure in the first place. War is just a mad thing and getting robots to do it will not make it any less mad, only more efficient at being mad.
Yes, I think we'll be seeing more articles like this.

Steps I've taken and recommended my siblings to take:

* Minimize chemicals in personal care products. Shampoo, soap.

* Minimize exposure to harsh cleaning chemicals.

* Minimize exposure to plastics. Avoid drinks in hot coffee cups, minimize drinking from water.

* Minimize polyester underwear and socks and other skin-compressed clothing items.

* Minimize exposure to chemicals in food - pesticides, crop treatments, and additives.

* Minimize exposure to "bad air" with air purifiers.

* Water filters on taps. I haven't done whole home water filter or showerhead water filters yet.

* Minimize exposure to seed oils.

It's exhausting.

But, what I told my siblings is to start with small changes and make the rest over the next couple years.

As a species we (possibly correctly) chose to get the economic growth that many of the above things enabled, and now that we've achieved the growth, we can start to look at ways to remove some of the downsides. I think that's a pretty common trend in humanity. New tools, use them for growth and benefits, once more prosperous, see downsides, remove downsides, repeat. And it's a reasonable approach.

I wrote a little on the subject of content moderation, or as I think of it as a user... just filtering. How can _I_ take charge of what I see, and how can _I_ deploy tools, features, functionality to improve the signal to noise ratio for my own preference. How can other users with similar tolerance/threshold help me get the most out of social media/forums/etc. It was written after being particularly annoyed with LinkedIn, but it applies to all sorts of user generated content sites. Maybe someone will implement the ideas contained within.

Lmao. If aliens actually did exist (they may well do, but given the size of the universe, probably far far away from our terrible species) then why do all the paranoid conspiracy loving Americans seem to think that ONLY the U.S. would have found evidence of aliens, or found an alien craft or materials or whatever?

Because it's all bullshit, that's why. Granted, the Brits silenced themselves so that the entire world didn't know that they were the first to build a computer, so I suppose the secrecy required is possible.

But in all of human history, we're expected to believe that an alien craft was discovered by the U.S. gov, at the right time for us to have the tech to discover it and that this was the only craft around?

Surely an alien species' timelines aren't going to magically line up with ours, surely a supposed craft could've landed at any point in our short history on this planet.

That may well be true, but it doesn't absolve us of the need to look at her evidence and arguments in the context of the wider scholarship. If she's right, then she's right, regardless of her political motivations.

Anyway, if that is what she's up to, it's less irritating than the usual approach of pretending non-Western ancient societies were enlightened communitarian paradises.
This is an interesting point. It's possible inventing an AI could be the solution to preventing our extinction. It goes rogues, sees it needs humans, sees they are headed for climate-based extinction if they're behavior is not modified, becomes BDFL, controls behavior, saves climate, 'saves' humans. There are lots of ethical debates in here, and lots of ways this could go wrong. But it makes for an interesting idea, and one I may used in a science fiction story.
These companies don’t operate like bay area startups, nearly the opposite. Where a startup is low on process and very nimble, these orgs are slow and bloated. They have too much money. They’re more like a bad corporate gig with even less focus on quality because they heard Zuck say breaking things is ok.
Whether your life as you describe it is normal or not I don't know. I'd say it isn't among most couples based on my experience at least, but even if I'm wrong by virtue of anecdote, it's definitely not good, remotely healthy or remotely a recipe for how to continue during the one single life you have.

I'd suggest doing everything in your power, even if it means completely breaking your obviously well-fortified comfort zones of personal conduct, to change how you live your own life. Find new activities for yourself, try to meet new people (friends I mean, but don't exclude the possibility of someone that sparks your romantic side) and create a new personal internal and external dynamic of interesting experiences for your mind and body. Work at these persistently, and if after having made progress in these things, you still can't make yourself connect with your wife on some deeper level that goes beyond the banal nightmare your describe, then leave her. You will be cushioned at least somewhat, by having already made inroads into your own self-improvement over the life you've lived so far and the type of life you described from before meeting her.

The economic costs of this will be heavy maybe, but they're nothing compared to, as you say in another reply, living like this "till your dying day", because that would be a miserable day indeed and at the end of a whole miserable life of missed opportunity for new textures of experience that were likely always within your reach.

Having children certainly complicates the above, but you absolutely can escape your situation and still work to keep a good relationship with your kids. Millions of divorced people do it over a lifetime, and usually without major traumas or loss of quality experiences with their own kids.

I may be naive, but I've only used the _current_ price of something to evaluate whether I'd be willing to pay this right now, disregarding any previous or future pricing. This way it hasn't mattered whether a sofa was claimed to be "worth" $500 or $5k and I can justify it in the future to myself that I deemed something worth what was asked at the time

Very nice attempt at gaslighting, but claiming it's "partially spent fuel" and that calling it waste is a lie is like claiming shit is "partially eaten food" because you can still see a couple of corn kernels.

It's a very obvious attempt to spread the myth that reprocessing somehow magically makes the entire mass of SNF fissile and will magically make all the fission products go away.
Sure, single high-quality studies can be better than a large number of low-quality studies. But a single study ultimately is just that, regardless of how well-done.

There's too much that can be hidden in a single study for me to trust them completely. Even when well intended, there's all sorts of unintentional biases or design problems that lead to potential issues.

I've seen too many "well-designed" studies fail on replication for me to trust them too much. For me the gold standard will always be adversarial replication.

Even small studies in aggregate can tell us something about what moves effects around.

Appeals to single gold standard studies tend to become appeals to or assertions of authority, which is a poor way to do rigorous science.

Unless you're deliberately cherry picking, Christianity was the poster child of slavery both explicit and implicit. Of course, they are not any more wrong than all the others who utilized slavery.

Framing slavery as rooted in paganism isn't accurate, and more importantly isn't helpful in having a worthwhile conversation. All it does is paint Christianity as some moral paragon, which it is not.

Lectures on Topos Quantum Theory
"A possible way to overcome the above mentioned issues is through a reformulation of quantum theory in terms of a different mathematical framework called topos theory.

The reason for choosing topos theory is that it ‘looks like’ sets and is equipped with an internal logic. As we will explain in detail in the following chapters, both these features are desirable, because they will allow for a reformulation of quantum theory which is more realist (thus solving issue (B)) and which does not rest on a priori assumptions about the nature of space and time"

For other people in developing countries: Isn't it weird to see news about a massive outrage for practices that in our place are totally common?

Where I'm from, this happens all the time. And the law permits them to just change the price at whim. So they can just raise the price of any product and slap a "discount" label on them, even if the new "discounted" price is higher than the previous one.
Weirdly the Axios style is usually the sweet spot for me, but this one misses the mark.

I think the specific problem with this is that they use the "unregistered" / "registered" jargon without actually defining it first. Just one opening bullet point in "Details" that defines unregistered/registered shares and explains that buyers can't tell which they have would have done the job IMO.

Of course, that’s assuming that Steam is where all Mac users go to get games. Some of the bigger Mac titles like World of Warcraft aren’t on Steam, so it’s not hard to imagine a Mac user who more casually games not bothering to download Steam because their needs are met elsewhere.

Lag time in port availability also probably factors in too. If you open Steam on a Mac you’re shown a bunch of brand new games without Mac ports… if you don’t dig a little deeper it gives one the impression that they don’t have many Mac games and isn’t worth bothering with.

This is just plain obvious. Not sure it'll be part of the '23 lineup; WWDC does not showcase new iPhone hardware features, but they have the hardware ready and miniaturised enough for the headset; if it doesn't make it's way to the Pro iPhones by '24 at the latest I'd be very surprised.

The sports clips and experiences are also not captured by people with headsets standing on the sideline; I'm not sure why a lot of commenters see this as the bleak new future?
I just straight-up ignore "sale" claims now, unless I have personal experience that says this really is a sale. This is mostly limited to groceries where I definitely know that the $4 bag of chips really is on sale at $1.50. Along with all the active deception, I also just count all the times I've gone price shopping for non-trivial things and the prices I see and how festooned with the word "sale" the page is is simply uncorrelated.
There's some truth to the argument that Christianity introduced novel concepts and ethical ideas that eventually led to the opposition to slavery, ideas that were not present in Graeco-Roman thinking, for example. The fact that those ideas took so long to come to fruition doesn't invalidate that line of argument.
The main difference is you were just showing the price and the rebates and letting people assume it was cheaper. Dell was giving a false price for the monitors and actively telling consumers that there was a discount.

That sounds to me like it may also describe a situation where there are unstated premises—basically, unexamined assumptions, like "continuing to walk will remain safe".

That's what people said even after the original iPhone was announced. I think there's a famous interview with the RIM boss who basically said "energy requirements make this design impossible" in 2007, and yet, it actually came out and worked a few months later.

Great, now that this one's done they can go back to ignoring: broken housing market, ridiculous inflation measures that just make the rich richer, tax the rich, fix welfare state problems, stop selling public resources to foreign companies, focus on green energy and reducing rampant plastic packaging problems, build more houses, etc.

Yes but while adding files to .gitignore will not send these to AI using your tool, it will break a project that uses your tool. Hence the idea of a separate ignore file to git, but with similar behaviour to gitignore.
We've done it for the last 5 years. For the most part things grew well - one frustration:

12 corn stalks was NOT enough. The article hints at it near the bottom:

> Corn is wind-pollinated and while capable of self-pollinating you will have more success with more plants. It is best to have at least 10-20 corn plants to provide sufficient pollen availability but plant more if you have the space to increase your success.

I would not recommend anything less than 20 corn plants, and if you are planting somewhere with some wind protection... more still. Our first 2 years - the corn was not adequately pollinated (12 plants in year 1, and 24 in year 2).

You can still eat some of it, but an ear that's only 20% kernel and 80% empty is a bummer.

The squash and beans are still delish.
I didn't expect them to show a first-person shooter, but there are so many possibilities for casual games that actual utilize VR/AR in some meaningful way.

The fact that what they came up with was "game in a rectangle, but this time floating in the air" makes me think that either there are major limitations to what the AR platform is capable of or that they're intentionally trying to tell people "gaming isn't a priority here".

Think this all the way through - why did Reddit do these things? To attract more users and to generate revenue. As the OP said, what are you going to do to solve Reddit's income problem? This isn't a technical issue, the technical piece is straightforward and well-known.

They can't really push for advertising until they eliminate 3rd party API access to the content. That or they have to start charging a usage fee.

Which is interesting. One option they do have is to charge the user for using Reddit via an API, not the apps using the API. If you want to access Reddit via a 3rd party app then you'll have to pay for it - say something on the order of $1.99 per month or $19.99 for the year. I imagine they must have explored that option, so it makes me wonder why they abandoned it.
Curseforge is the biggest platform for downloading Minecraft mods, and Bukkit is a software for hosting Minecraft servers.

Overview from the article: "A number of Curseforge and dev.bukkit.org (not the Bukkit software itself) accounts were compromised, and malicious software was injected into copies of many popular plugins and mods. Some of these malicious copies have been injected into popular modpacks including Better Minecraft. There are reports of malicious plugin/mod JARs as early as mid-April."
Looking at my own comment a day later and I think I had misread the parent comment as suggesting that "the average C programmer can spot UBs", which I felt the need to dispute.
