I'm glad you asked! First, some resources:

- Community Browser: https://lemmyverse.net/communities

- Anime Community Compilation: https://sopuli.xyz/post/779648

In my experience, these have been the most reliable for seasonal anime episode discussions:

- https://lemmy.ml/c/anime

- https://lemmy.world/c/anime

I haven't browsed the manga communities as much, but so far these have been good for chapter discussions:

Most indie devs would define "success" as "profitable". And those costs include personal labor. even if a single person made a fully open source video game, it's hard to ration that 10 people buying a $10 game made even over 6 months is "profitable". If only because Steam takes $100 to publish a game, and then 30% of revenue. You're down $30.

This is an overly literal exaggeration, but the example remains true even at a more realistic (and still pailtry) 100-200 sales. 1000 users is where it starts to maybe become a side hobby. Before then, You could be mowing lawns and make more revenue (without a 30% platform cut).
with regard to (A)GPL, I don't know how/if this issue ever got resolved, but Apple has been scared of (at least) GPL3 and also GPL2, and (separately) the provisions of those licenses require you to provide for downloads of the source, but the Apple app store does not provide for that, so it's been a grey area sort of from both directions
If your bank sells your mortgage to another bank, the second bank now owns that debt. If the first bank goes out of business, you very obviously (separately from the previous transaction) lose any money that isn't insured. I'm not sure what else you would expect to happen.
BTW, for anyone reading this later, I asked some mercurial folks and putting an http cache in front of clones does indeed work just fine, although using the repo bundles is more performant (but might not be something you could ask folks to do).
Given this repo seems fairly low activity (last commit 7 months ago) I doubt there'd be much of a problem with caching reads.

Although given how they are using this repo, they'd probably be better off with a shallow clone, or a subversion proxy, or a snapshot tarball...likely just need a set of files..

It would be neat if someone could make a good adventure game with an LLM, but they’re too prone to getting argued into just letting you win or whatever.
The past 6-7 years or so I personally noticed a steep increase in homelessness in most metropolitan areas I visited and then slowly started to see an increase in homelessness in the surrounding areas. What was never clear to me was whether there was a genuine increase in homelessness or a change in policy/culture surrounding the "management" of homelessness. This article describes a mixed picture of homelessness (i.e. increases in some areas and decreases in other areas) which suggests to me that we have a policy problem that has a risk to create a feedback loop.

It feels to me that homelessness is more "tolerated" these days. If someone is sleeping in front of the metro station entrance we have a "leave them be" kind of attitude. I wonder if this correlates to a reduction in homelessness management systems like described in the article "less beds". If we're okay with homeless people camping on our trails and in our parks maybe there is less incentive to spend money on creating other places for them to go. Then with less places to go we have more homeless people so then we have less incentive to create places for them to go.

Makes me speculate if tolerance is part of the problem here. If culturally we found homelessness intolerable then we would be more motivated to solve it.

SO is pretty much dead to me except for search. A lot time ago I stopped trying to even use it or participate in it in the intended way after getting my answers or questions killed for what seemed like no reason.
The real answer is that Apollo should be like a modern reddit-ized RSS reader. Each subreddit should be self-hosted on their own one-click cloud VM deployment. "Subscribing" to a subreddit on Apollo should connect the user's client to auto-pull feeds from the "self-hosted" server. The servers themselves should get hands-off auto-updates for security patches/etc in the same way that any end-user desktop or mobile app gets updates.

That gives each subreddit total control over moderation. It gives users total control over what subreddits they want to see on their feed. It eliminates the decentralized/federated pain.

Categorically speaking, all tropes are previously used. There are no original ideas, just ones you haven't been exposed to yet or otherwise identified.

Haven't you heard it said: 'there's nothing new under the sun'?
Per discussion on this very page, in the headlined article, and in the mailing list discussion it references, PostgreSQL is not in that category. It has lots of static storage duration variables, which do not necessarily have external linkage.

Robert Haas pointed out in one message that an implementation pattern was to use things like file-scope static storage duration variables to provide session-local state for individual components. This is why they've been arguing against a single giant structure declared in "session.h" as an approach, as it requires every future addition to session state to touch the central core of the entire program.

They want to keep the advantage of the fact that these variables are in fact not global. They are local; and the problem is rather that they have static storage duration and are not per-thread, and thus are not per-session in a thread-per-session model.

I've never used FB or Meta. I do find Elon's comments on free speech on target. We will find out together where this goes I guess. I personally like free speech and I mean all of it. Hatred, spite, honesty, truth, humility...all of it. Put it all out there and let it rip.
How do you build a system that can find and deliver information from anywhere on the internet, to anyone in the world, in <1 second, billions of times a day?

Ask “How’s your sister?”
yes, and I am saying the first bank should have to use the assets it has tied to you to pay off the debt it has to you, before it can sell them in bankruptcy to bank #2.
Yes, all problematic users don’t congregate on the same server. Problematic users can pop up anywhere. However, a server could fail to moderate effectively and become a source of misinformation and trolling. That’s the benefit of federation: it ensures a minimum level of moderation quality. Servers that don’t moderate are blocked, which sets up the proper incentives.
The problem with federation is that “HTTP browsers” simply just don’t work that way.

There is nothing you can do to make Firefox or Chrome to understand what a “federated network” even is. For a browser, an “Origin” is an extremely well defined concept. You can’t just decide to amend it because that’s how you feel it ought to be. If you can’t make mastodon.social be relates to social.mastodon in the browser, then you’ll have a rough edge. And that’s just to start. Federated services have so, so so so, many usability issues that all could be attributed to what a “browser” interrupts HTTP or the internet to be vs what is actually possible.
NB: Aluminium is rather notorious for its tendency to develop invisible hairline fractures which fail suddenly. Particularly around high-stress regions.

The BOAC Comet failures (cracks propagating from squared-off window corners) is a notorious example, with multiple total hull losses in flight.

I've experienced somewhat less significant failures of bicycle components (though they could easily have proved far worse). It's a good idea to replace components after a wreck or even hard-cornering of a crankset.
> So, the original MVC was designed in the context of green-screen terminal systems.

Not at all: this was designed at PARC in the context of the Alto and the D machines running systems like Smalltalk. It even mentions the mouse. It talks about querying the type of a field, that might for example contain text.

You reasonably mapped it to a serial character terminal but this is not at all what it was designed for.
Perhaps you could elaborate on a specific threat model rather than just handwaving about Huawei? As far as I can tell, the two significant threats of Huawei infrastructure are:

1. Massive DoS at a strategic moment, which is more relevant at country-scale with everyone losing communication simultaneously, rather than a few rare people having personal problems with their infrastructure.

2. Eavesdropping and backhauling the network traffic somehow. This mainly applies to corporations and governments wanting to keep using outdated plain text or even unauthenticated protocols. Individuals should be encrypting everything regardless of who makes the network gear. Especially as most countries lack privacy legislation or functional constraints on government, meaning that the WAN gear is an attacker regardless of who made it.

As far as wifi access points, I never had a problem with Debian or now NixOS. OpenWRT is a bunch of clicking and bespoke management, which is exactly what I don't want.

Just like this persian who was given a lot of money to go on the Titanic's maiden voyage, but gave the money to charity instead. He came to the USA in 1912 and spoke out against the racism here

> Throughout his U.S. visit he swept aside the social protocol of segregation by insisting that everywhere he spoke be open to people of all races. Not the biggest crowd pleaser at the time. At the Great Northern Hotel on 57th Street (now the Parker Meridien), the manager vehemently refused to allow any blacks on the property.

> "If the people see that one colored person has entered my hotel, no respectable person will ever set foot in it," he said. So Abdu'l-Baha instead organized a multi-racial feast at the home of one of his followers, with many whites serving blacks -- a subversive, even dangerous notion at the time.
If it's owned by a non-profit its generally exempt from taxation by statute.
Your link was an interesting read, he does make good points along with clear examples.

I'm one of those who believes that linux paths should have more limitations. I also believe they should be case insensitive. Both opinions are highly controversial, unfortunately

I guess it comes down to whether you believe paths are there to serve humans or machines. If you believe it should serve humans, then you understand why allowing a - prefix or case sensitivity causes unnecessary problems.

On the other hand if you believe that paths are there to serve the machine, then the fewer "arbitrary" limitations the better. The devs know best, after all.
> The usual approach in the US is for the land conservation foundations to split up the ownership rights between two different local organizations in a way that prevents developing the land without agreement from both organizations.

What a clever approach!
How would a competitor even get established if economies of scale provide such a large advantage? The only way that would work is it the current power company has very wide margins.

Yes. As you probably also know, "Harvest Moon" the name is no longer "Harvest Moon" th inspiration behind Stardew and many other crafting games. The actual devs behind it lost the rights to the name while "Harvest Moon" the IP devolved into generic crafting game #1243. The devs continued on under the new name (in the West) of "Story of Seasons"

That branding cost a lot of noteriety in the West.
The promise of the AVX-512 instruction set really was that it would be much easier to (auto-)vectorize code that wasn’t written with vectorization in mind, with tools like masked execution and gather/scatter that either didn’t exist at all before (SSE) or were very minimal (AVX).

The tools are there in the instruction set, but that still leaves the issues of time and effort to implement in compilers, and enough performance improvement on enough machines in some market (browsers, games, etc) capable of running it all before any of this possibility becomes real.

The skylake-xeon/icelake false start here really can’t have helped. It’s still a much more pragmatic thing to target the haswell feature set that all the intel chips and most amd chips can run (and run well).
I thought it's a joke, but apparently not.

It can be both - transparent, and a tax heaven. And it's one of the most well-known. Sorry, but in at least 2 countries where I lived, if you hear Cayman, you immediately think "tax evasion".

I get that you're offended though - when you see the Swiss - that somehow managed to turn their most shady banking system into a national pride thing - and admired but others too !
According to David Pogue (journo who did a dive on this vessel last year), at least as of last year there was no beacon to transmit location. One would hope radio would be working, in that case.

If FTP disappears the US healthcare industry will go with it.
Cayman isn't really a tax dodge. I've structured a few hedge funds in the Cayman Islands, and FATCA/CRS regime to which it strictly adheres prevents it from being one. Companies set up foreign financial entities in Cayman Islands because it's a tightly regulated financial center with well known laws, and because foreign investors want it because it's perceived (particularly by Chinese investors) as a safe haven. If those investors invested directly through US entities, they still would not be taxed. What's also likelier here is that they were trying to avoid the US banking system so that funds could not be seized (so much for that).

I can't see the article since it's paywalled, but the bank would have required that a certain amount of funds remain on deposit for the borrower to get the terms. I've seen and facilitated an SVB loan agreement for a startup, and I can tell you that's exactly what it says. So the bank required you to park your money there, and then it lost the funds. In any normal business context, the money lost would come off of the balance owed. It sounds like the loan was received from one entity, but the deposits were placed with another, and none of the parties contemplated a bank collapse that would require the bank to forfeit a portion of the owed amount.
I'm American; I know what salaries in the US are like. My point is there's no average salary; as the other person said, it can range between $40K and $4M.
>the two obvious ones are lemmy.world and beehaw.org. But now they don't federate with each other

doesn't that make it essentially the same decision as if you were joining any other non-federated web service? on what criteria did you decide to sign up for facebook vs twitter? or reddit vs digg?

That’s exactly the problem with replacing Reddit with a federated service. The opposite is true with replacing Twitter in which case it’s difficult to explain why a user has to pick any server at all.
And we're saying that's not how that works. When the FDIC takes over the bank, they pay out all of the insured deposits, sell all of the assets, and distribute the remaining funds, which in cases like this one are not enough to cover uninsured deposits.

https://www.fdic.gov/consumers/banking/facts/priority.html

https://www.fdic.gov/resources/deposit-insurance/faq/
You can use multiple banking accounts at multiple banks and still maintain FDIC protection. There’s many business models set up to facilitate such things, so while you can’t hold billions in this way in practice it’s not a problem for payroll. Ex: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IntraFi_Network

Alternatively, you can also buy your own insurance from a 3rd party to minimize risks.

However, you can also get incentivized to ignore the risks and keep large sums at individual institutions. Which has the obvious downsides SVB customers are discovering.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the 'striking because of AI' is a coopted narrative and not the actual cause of the strike. Strikes tend to occur because of infringement on worker's rights. Framing it as resistance to automation seems, to me at least, that it's to undermine the intent and confuse the goals and desired outcome.

This is just speculation and I could be wrong, I'm just going off of american cultures disdain for the working class and how private organizations endeavor to jeopardize parity for it.
> Elon's comments on free speech

Until of course, the moment where after having bought Twitter he saw to it that they banned people saying things he didn’t like.

Elon Musk is not about free speech. He is about speech that he likes.

I used to look up to the guy when he was focusing on space and electric cars. But he’s just another wannabe, not a real cool person :(
> I mean that’s the whole point of federation right??

The point of federation is not to be dependent on oligopolies from a single country, one with poor grasp of and legal enforcement of personal privacy at that.

>It kinda loses its point.

Even if it comes to this, it doesn't. Another migration can happen at any point, but this time you wouldn't lose your social contacts - and in the future hopefully neither your content.

>But Google and Microsoft got in the game.

That's like your common anti-Linux argument.

>Search engine indexing for these federated services SUCKS.

Decentralized content/link aggregators just became popular so we'll see what'll happen, but personal social media shouldn't be as public for most people as it right now anyway.
I try to have a generous read of everyone's intentions, but that anecdote is alarming.
True, but most PC BIOSes don't, and PCs can outnumber servers 100 to 1, unless you're talking about a datacenter.
> As a Caymanian I’m doing to take exception to your non-sequitur about Cayman being a “well-known tax haven”.

The Cayman islands are a well-known tax haven. Sorry to say.

Economists, in journals, routinely refer to the Cayman islands as a tax haven. Just a few examples out of many thousands:

https://www.nber.org/system/files/chapters/c14730/c14730.pdf

https://eprints.lse.ac.uk/56125/1/__lse.ac.uk_storage_LIBRAR...

If you want to know more this is a thorough review of the Cayman islands and their role as a tax haven: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/09692290.2016.12...

The main reason for having a subsidiary in the Cayman islands is to avoid paying taxes. In some cases this is legal tax avoidance, in others it is illegal. The ratio of the two is unclear because of secrecy laws.

One common way businesses legally avoid taxes (note that legal is not moral, many people think should be illegal) is through IP. They make money in country X, then their subsidiary in the Cayman islands has to be paid because it owns the patents involved, but that subsidiary is owned by the main company and sends that money back with zero taxes. In country X the profits look very small now because so much had to be paid in licensing fees.

Another way is through round-tripping money. Investing in the Cayman islands and then taking that money and investing it back into their country as a foreign investment.

There are countless other ways. The Cayman islands along with a few other tax havens play a nasty and selfish role in today's financial system that gives rich companies and rich people a massive advantage while hurting everyone else, while of course generously skimming something off the top for themselves.
CB is line-of-sight, isn't it? It's mostly used by freeway truckers for very short-range comms that you don't need to broadcast across the entire state (accident/speed trap ahead/nearby Hooters fails health code inspections).
Governments have to give them tax breaks / tax write-offs in order to convince them to part with a small amount of their wealth.

So no. And especially so for the corporations they own.

It strikes me pretty as implausible people are smuggling cannabis into SFO.

At this very moment, my flight from Maui is headed there and I’d bet there was more smuggled on the way out of SFO than into it.
Oh! Yeah! I do forget about “base” avx-512 sometimes. No one but HPC folks really ever had any proximity to that. In practice if you’ve got a computer that supports avx-512, it supports VL.

Homelessness has causes. Fix those. Most homeless people do NOT want to be homeless. Is it the wages lagging inflation? Fix it. Is it housing rates skyrocketing? Fix it. Is it our broken physical and mental health systems? Fix them. Fix all the homeless people. They will love you.
Yeah, destructive testing is still a must for process checking. Though non destructive methods for even composites keep getting better! Composites are very very hard to test though, and I think it's one of the biggest bottleneck to their usage.

(I work in NDT(non destructive testing) but on the software stack not the probes/scanners. So I'm not sure if my last point is still true these days! )
Yes, I am using it on a not so small dataset (roughly 1 million docs) and the output is a fairly efficient model. I am using gensim with pre-trained word vectors. New docs can be inferred via .infer_vector().

Overall my approach is less automated than what I have seen in your codebase so it’s likely a bigger investment. I am happy to share more.
