Should bans or price caps be extended to other things? Should they only apply to B2C or also in B2B products? Which fields should they apply to? Who gets to decided what is reasonable ban or price cap for specific item?

I would say that many things shouldn't cost that much money. Or not allowed to be served at that high price...
There's nothing to prevent multiple services from using the same port at this stage. For files in /etc, the "etc" service should detect that the same file appears more than once and error out--that is, it won't instantiate a "broken" system.

There are other things that are detected statically and prevent you from instantiating a broken system: missing modules in the initrd, invalid file system label/UUID, references to non-existent Shepherd services, etc. All this is possible because there are well-defined data types and semantics for the different components of the system.
>But people already paid for them and I failed to deliver those to them, so I can't in good conscience sell them.

Why couldn't you sell them and give the proceeds to the people who paid for them?
> but apart from tech folks nobody seems to care. Where on iPhone case from day 1 one could tell it was actually really really useful

This was exactly the same when the iPhone was introduced. Only tech folks could tell it was actually really really useful. Other people were just like "So browsing the internet o a phone is better now. But why would I need to browse the internet one a phone?"
Time for foxes or bigger stray cats
Imagine how many more rats would get to that size if cats didn't get them when they were smaller. Or if they could breed in spaces currently occupied by cats.
Even 4chan has moderators (the janitors).
I would expect the moderators to have some subject knowledge and often it doesn't take much to spot that an answer is blatantly fantastical as LLMs sometimes are. The finer points of some API might need actual checking, but a lot of things you'll know on sight.
The expense of your desk motor burning out has a cap though. The expense of a utility controlling device not shutting off after intentionally being stressed/hacked is potentially very high and may require human intervention to detect, maybe they decided it’s better if the device fails under this type of abuse which will bring humans into the loop to detect the problem.
And the off-shore wind currently being built is targeting +60% according to the manufacturers.
But there is even much more profits with ads and sales in those apps - that is the biggest market than selling software. On android it's even hard to track how much profits is via subscription because platform is less restrictive and apple.

And paid apps are slowly going away and are less relevant - it's been many years since mobile app peaked. Top apps these days in play store and app store are free.
> China stamps these things out of an assembly line.

No it does not. Chinese nuclear reactors too are facing delays and cost overruns and they build a lot more of renewables than nuclear for the simple reason that it's much less expensive.

Hmm I wonder if Slack named their chat app “Slack” to make it hard to find the original “The importance of slack” articles.

They really haven't, and you really need to stop being so abrasive.

I know you can do that, because you've managed it at least once with me on this topic.
Google can't exactly fix the DMCA like the dev may want, but its fake appeal process is infuriating. You can appeal the takedown to Google but no human will ever validate that the DMCA notice even makes sense.

Filing a counter notice is your only option but it also hands over your personal details to whoever filed the DMCA takedown request for a potential lawsuit. This turns the DMCA mechanism into an excellent doxxing system for anyone publishing anything onto Google's platforms.

Perhaps even worse is the insinuation, or sometimes even lie, that appeals are verified by humans. They're either not passing by any humans or they're not being verified. If an actual human had read the DMCA takedown in the first place, this whole saga never would've happened.
>The film is comprised of over 65,000 frames entirely made up of oil paintings, with 12 individually painted frames appearing on screen per second. Considering that every brushstroke tells a story, it’s crazy to think that there are 898 shots — hence 898 oil paintings — in the hour-and-a-half long moving picture.

This leaves some uncertainty as to how many physical paintings were actually used as frames in the film. For what it's worth, it seems like most frames were created digitally.
To me they are great, so much so that our team has expanded 1:1s to the point where everyone has a one on one with each other (one 30 mins meeting every two weeks where the participants change every session).

The benefit I take out of these sessions is that it allows people to be human easily. Big calls like a retro are incredibly useful but no matter how much people are comfortable with each other, due to size of the group alone, people won't always truly speak their minds.

With 1:1s you have two humans speaking with each other, conversations naturally flow much better this way. Which proves to be a good place for people to be natural, discuss ideas and take those ideas to other sessions (such as the retro).
Yeah, I have personally seen companies inflicting hundreds of millions worth of damages to themselves of not billions as part of pre-IPO work. Extra hilarious and sad to watch when the IPO has to be aborted.
> It's something that's obviously true.

Explain? How does someone apologise 4 times for misunderstanding something and then turn around and pretend they never apologised behind that persons back and that the initial comment was made maliciously?

CEO of reddit is allowed to mishear things, he is also allowed to apologise and move on once things have been clarified.

What is illegal is to then go and say things that are demostrably false that affect someones reputation or chance of employment. If Christian goes to a single interview, meeting, sales pitch etc and someone even makes the briefest comment about "we don't wanna be blackmailed later", he can take Steve Hauffman all the way in front of a judge. Play the phone tape and collect more money that way than any number of years running Apollo.

The again Steve Hauffman changed someones comment on reddit which is a change in production which I am also sure its on very grey rea of legality, specially when people have their reddit account tied to their person, or business. If Retures europe posted about Ukraine and he changed their comment I am sure that would certainly be illegal, he only gets away because he did it to a private citizen and because the ethics board of reddit didn't fire him on the spot as they should have
There is also the narrative vs facts problem.

"It takes forever to build a nuclear power plant and it is very expensive"

This is a narrative.

"Lets compare how MW capacity / day (how long it takes to build) across different energy sources"

These are facts.

If you can build 10 MW in 10 days vs 1200 MW in 365 days which one is better?
Also: an Apple watch lacks elegance and is literally sexless.

You’re comparing a service accessible through any device with a physical product, not very apt I’d say
It's really not that difficult, you put the thing on your head and instantly have a three monitor setup whenever and wherever you want. And of course with the right software, you can go past that and use your whole surrounding as your "desktop", watch movies on a virtual IMAX screen, go full virtual realty or whatever else you can imagine.

The problem so far has simply been that none of the existing headsets work for this. Resolution needs to make it past 30 PPD to be usable for text. All the exiting consumer ones are between 10 and 20 PPD.

You also need the right software. SteamVR has basically nothing by default, you get a blurry view of your desktop if you go the menu and that's it. You can enhance it a little with Steam overlay addons, but it's all a crude "make desktop show up in VR", not a "userinterface build for VR". Oculus is a bit better, but still not great. Microsoft tried with WMR Portal to bring the full Windows desktop into VR and it is about the closest thing to what Apple is doing now, but it was still riddled with problems, lots of bugs and limitations that made it impossible to take full advantage of VR (max window size was restricted to 1920x1080, no way to anchor virtual windows to the real world, no real passthrough mode).

What Apple has shown so far look much better than anything else out there. The resolution is good enough that you can actually read text, the passthrough cameras are good enough that you can actually see and interact with the world around you in proper 3D and color and the software seems to be completely focused on making 2D content in a virtual space work well, something none of the other companies spend much effort on.

There is an alternative reality somewhere where VR went the other direction, focus on making it cheap and accessible and focus and producing proper full VR games, basically the original vision behind Oculus. That could have worked, Oculus delivered a couple of great games in the early days of VR and before Facebook joined them, they were even able to produce $300 headsets. But all that got derailed by Facebook, who raised the price to $600, gave up on PC based VR and forced everything on mobile. They also largely gave up on games and focused instead on "Metaverse", which means that the Quest2 games out know, still look a lot worse than what we had 6 seven years ago on CV1 or even DK1. The insane amount of money Meta has spend so far simply doesn't show in the actual product and especially not in the software.

Anyway, since this alternative reality didn't happen, we are now basically stuck waiting for VR headsets to get enough resolution that 2D content becomes enjoyable in them, as that's the only way VR will get content. Native VR content is still just too rare and the quality is often not great. Apple's VisionPro is the first device that crosses that threshold and has the software to go along with it.
How to build Eco-friendly docs
I haven't seen anyone re-evaluate it since Safari added Web Extensions on Mac and iOS a few years back.

Most likely not for same reasons ad blockers were freaked about Chrome's Manifest v3 push - browsers are trying to optimize away the latency from a massive synchronous javascript-based list check on page load, and the privacy risk that comes from these extensions having exposure to every page (and injecting their code into every page). Conversely, the web extension authors don't see the set of limitations as feasible.

But it is odd that uBlock Origin doesn't seem to have even issued a public-facing statement of even evaluating the functionality that is there in Safari.
Imagine there was a free or quasi-free API for Facebook. Facebook would lose large amounts of money on content because they can no longer monetize it with ads.
Assuming his goal was to be ready with results of his calculations in real time while on a call, which may happen while you’re away from your computer, it makes sense I think. Excel is great, but on phone while away from your computer? Not so sure.
This is not much more different than the first iPhone focusing on what people were already doing daily with their phones and computers: taking phone calls, SMS, e-mail, browsing the web.
But now there are hundreds of different other uses, many of which are considered more important than the original ones they focused on.

Getting people to buy a device to do something entirely new (physical games, metaverse, ...) is much harder than getting people to buy a device that does something they're already doing, but better.

That's just a fact of life: people like sitting by themselves in the dark watching movies and TV. They will in the future too. If the Apple Vision Pro is as good or better than a huge TV and surround sound stereo, then for people with smaller apartments it could actually be a good deal. Many people could get by with just an iPhone and the Apple Vision Pro as their only devices (The Vision Pro probably needs a couple of iterations to be good and comfortable enough, but it seems pretty close already)

I'm sure there will be plenty of games and social apps on the app store in the near future. I'm sure it'll get support for third party controllers for such games. But Apple is not focusing on that, just as controller support in iOS and Apple TV isn't a huge focus point for them in the marketing.
There are plenty of communities on Reddit that provide truly useful information, tons of niches. We should be archiving this supposed "rubbish."
Reddit specifically said that killing third apps wasn’t their intention, and wanted apps to pay a reasonable amount to cover the costs.

> Also, what things are priced at is not what they cost …

So if that’s the best argument in favor of Reddit, then it’s Reddit that’s being illogical. Or to be more straight, lying.

> Why go for $10m if there is no need to because you have already adjusted your own pricing upwards.

Because $20M is neither the amount Christian was earning, nor the cost that Reddit was paying to provide API access. Steve explicitly said it was a lost opportunity. There was simply no way that Christian could’ve paid that insane price. However, Reddit could’ve earned $20M themselves per year by acquiring Apollo. If the $20M opportunity was even remotely true, that is.
You are not mad at Flatpak
Fantastic hack, I love repurposing junked stuff. Question (which I don't doubt has crossed your mind but I can't figure it out): why not rotate the movement, rotate the dial back (it has no complications so that shouldn't be a real issue) and then use a flex shaft for the crown?
I totally agree.

I used to work for Amzn and the management was totally idiotic about remote work. We had to go to the office to be on call for datacenters 1000kms from the office. Makes perfect sense right?
Yes that's why we only use opioids for pain relief.
Blaming this on any device other than the smart meter is disingenuous.
I agree with your first statement. When in-person, it isn't good to have a hot desk. You need to reset your space each morning. You can't have anything personalised at the desk. You have new neighbours who you probably couldn't be bothered talking to because they'll be moved tomorrow.

But I disagree that in-person is the worst way of working. I think some people are more productive in areas that are well-defined. But if teamwork, group problem solving or large amounts of communication is required (such as onboarding a junior), then there is no comparison: In-person has far more communication points than remote. Working in a team remotely requires you to schedule every communication point. This is frustrating when most information that gets passed between people is by osmosis / overhearing.
>There's no benefit to paying $10 million.

Him not rabble rousing their user base against them would have been the benefit.
Higher (-order) kinded types describe functions on type constructors. Type constructors are "generic types", like `T[]` that generate a list from a single type `T` or like `Map<S, T>` that generates a new type from two types `S` and `T`. A higher kinded type constructor is one, where you could use any (well, with certain prerequisites) of these type constructors to generate a new type. Let's say you want to have a function `map` (like `Array.map`) that works not only with `T[]` but also with `Tree<T>`, `Maybe<T>` (`= T | undefined`), ... HKT give you the possibility to write the type of such type functions.

I got banned twice for using abbreviations like SQL or JS because the mods assumed I must be shilling shitcoins.

It was in a crypto-related reddit but in a thread about programming algorithmic trading bots.

Looks like the wrong sword cuts both ways, too.
People also said the same about the apple watch, and from my experience they were right. You use it, then you stop using it after you're bored charging it all the time in addition to all the other devices, for no real benefit.

Yes, i know they're selling a lot of watches, but i only see very few people wearing them.

However in this case...

He already admitted to changing post titles (in his own words to fix typos and other minor corrections). So he got the hang of modifying prod data with a "good cause" and once he had the know-how he turned around and sued it to edit someone's comment.

Had that not caused a big stir, maybe it would have become his new past time. maybe it has, maybe he goes back 5-6 years to comments you cannot reply to because the threads are locked and adds little jokes there, who knows cause he is now totally untrustworthy on this matter.

No, remote work is still allowed. It might be a bit more difficult to switch to a remote work contract now (but still possible), but people who are already remote will continue like this.
I wouldn't recommend Manjaro to anyone. Arch Linux is much easier to setup. As others mentioned, Manjaro has a terrible reputation, from letting certificates expire every year to holding back stable packages from Arch repository by 2 weeks (so whenever a new stable version is released in Arch it's released 2 weeks later on Manjaro), and by using Arch's repos and the maintainers are not even upstreaming their patches or fixes to Arch.

Besides those technicalities, there's the controversy about their corporate management and the partnerships they had.

If you want an Arch-based distro, go either for Arch or EndeavourOS. Manjaro is a big no-no.
>Because someone unauthorized used a device to force it to do that.

Seriously? The device has no authentication. By the design, anyone within range is authorised.

And it wasn't "forced". There's no code execution here. It was sent commands, it accepted them.

And comparing it to industrial applications with trained workers is just absurd. This is not some hugely complicated industrial system. I really don't see how logic for designing heavy machinery for industrial applications can be uncritically applied to consumer devices. It's just a different space, with different requirements and it's much less complicated.
The context most of Reddit seems to be missing here is that Reddit will do whatever it wants and has many times before in anything they find unsavory.

When the speech police benefits the mods, they are all on board with it. Now that it doesn't, they seem so suddenly shocked.

These free power tripping mods standing up for themselves can be steamrolled by employees, and probably will be.

It happened to more than one sub I was in. They installed their own mods to 'keep the peace', and despite warnings that bad actors were at play, shut down the subs anyways.

Curious to see how this plays out.

I don't like to fiddle with my computer too much, I just installed arch with KDE using their installer and kind of forgot about it for many months and it just worked™ (until I broke it myself in a way any distro would have broken, but that's a different story).

The only thing with arch that is blocking a non-techy/fiddle-unfriendly person is the installation process (even with the script, knowing what a DE is, making a conscious decision which to choose, KDE etc)
As mentioned by other you can use solution, that propagates your passcode credentials across devices - probably most password managers will offer this soon. I wouldn't, because you loose separation in case of compromise of one device, but if you do - it's still on par with security level of today's password managers with cloud sync.

Also you don't really have to set up everything everywhere all at once - passwords still work and you can use phone passkey on PC via QR.

Taliban successfully eradicates poppy cultivation: Report
"A type that accepts types that generates another type" is called a type constructor. And a "kind" is the type of a type constructor, just to have a new name and not needing to call that "type" too.
"Generic types" like `Vec<T>` (in Rust) are type constructors, they "generate" a type `Vec<T>` from the type `T`. Type constructors that take one type as argument have the kind `* -> *` (or as Rust-y notation `fn(*) -> *` - read each asterisk as "type". Type constructor that take two types arguments have the kind `* -> * -> *` (Rust-y: `fn(*, *) -> *`).
A higher (-order) kinded type takes (for example) a type constructor (here a type constructor which takes just one argument) and generates a type from it: `(* -> *) -> *` (Rust-y: `fn(fn(*) -> *) -> *`.

Edit: I hope now all asterisks are properly escaped ...
> when you take the time to write something out - something that benefits others and does nothing for you, like sharing your experience or knowledge

I'm sure you understand why. Ukraine is in a vulnerable position right now and needs all the allies it can get. Alienating Turkey would be foolish. And considering the Armenian genocide happened a long time ago, it's not exactly worth it to bring this up now. Turkey, especially under Erdogan, is definitely a problematic country, but not one that either Ukraine or NATO can afford to alienate right now. Current issues take precedence over the atrocities of the past.
It used to be like that before, but now there's this archinstall script which works wonders. You can select what DE to install, extra packages, setup your locale, keyboard, etc. It's much easier than it was before.
The point you’re missing, and with no fault of your own, is that this isn’t the end goal by any means. You’re right that this type of device will always be a niche market, indeed Apple are targeting just 1M units sold.

If you dig deep enough, you’ll find that the ubiquitous, always-on, socially acceptable form factor is indeed AR in the shape of glasses. As in Google Glasses but with infinitely more utility. The ability to do anything you can now on your phone and more, powered by a localized and shared augmented experience.

> What would be such indicators?

If you agree on the above as the end goal, one clear indicator of success is “how many times did you not take out your phone?”

Of course any expert in the field will tell you we’re 10+ years away from achieving such technology, due in no small part to the physics of optics and displays. But you can imagine the Apple VisionPro shrinking toward this end state.
