It doesn't sound as a security since the profits, dividents or any monetary value tied to these NFTs aren't mentioned.

They were just selling a feature on their website (ability to use an image in some way) with blockchain used as a way to keep transaction and ownership records.

The yen value hurts the most on lodging and shopping when it's high. Museums, temples and other cultural experiences are mostly cheap or free. Dining is generally affordable if you're not a broke backpacker.

In language, Japanese has a lot of gotchas that can mean the opposite of what you meant to say, and cause offense where a compliment was intended. One easy failure is the difference between cute (kawaii) and ugly/scary (kuwaii)...polarization hinges on a single mumbled syllable ("kuh-waii" yields mixed reactions). So make sure you speak clearly and with enunciated confidence, like you're a Real Housewife from New Jersey. If you want to say "cute," the key is in the "kah" ;)
I think part of the problem ist that derivation hashs sometimes don't fully cover the intermediate states of a derivation during the build process. This might lead to two hashs pointing to effectively two different configurations. I've had that experience in particular with non-reproducible derivations.

Even one of those in the store will make the store, or at least a subset of it, a state.
To offer an alternative perspective: I'm gay and live in a minor city in the UK. It's very unlikely I meet other gay men through my hobbies, it's just improbable unless you live in a major city. So the dating apps are very useful and I've met great people through it. I'm sure it's the same for other niche groups or straight people who live in rural areas, and there just aren't many single folk around.
Sounds like the problem could also be with Nix maintainers who don't understand that "semver" is not a universal law of nature and that not all projects and ecosystems follow it. This kind of blanket dismissal can cut both ways.

Semver (the website and "spec") was created in 2009 by some guy. It's not an RFC, a standard, or anything like that. Yes, it gained widespread adoption. Yes, the guy in question is a cofounder of GitHub. So what? You cannot force it upon everyone. Python is about 20 years older than semver. Django is several years older. Should the whole ecosystem change their conventions because it's more convenient for a few people?
> If you want a "Premium" native look and feel, people gotta go directly to the source: native APIs.

I've seen this regurgitated a hundred times, but I don't really know any more what that "native look and feel" is. On Windows, it might be the old Windows 95 controls, but those are quite limited. What system today is made of dropdowns, checkboxes and OK buttons?
Reminds me of one of my favorite papers ever: "Nobody Ever Gets Credit for Fixing Problems that Never Happened". https://web.mit.edu/nelsonr/www/Repenning%3DSterman_CMR_su01...

Unfortunately, for my money, I think the only real way you can create an incentive structure which emphasizes stability and change is by offering some kind of form of insurance.

My father was an electrician who often complained about how he never got paid adequately for the stellar, stable work he did, and one day I asked him whether he ever thought of raising his rates but providing a kind of service guarantee, where if a problem occurred that could be traced back to his own work, he would step in and perform the additional work at a reduced fee. Naturally he laughed out loud, because that's not how business works.

Ownership of an already-mature product is sort of like providing an insurance policy by default, of course. And sticking with conventional designs can be a solid business strategy if you use their slow-changing nature to e.g. build the thing faster than you could otherwise. That's the strategy I'm using for my consulting: Stick with what we know best (Hugo+Bootstrap for a napkin sketch UI demo as fast as possible, then SQLite+Django+React to build out the main functionality ASAP too). Emphasize solving the _business_ problem over the shiny tech.
Yes, but the tweet is talking about single layer networks!
The Shell Scripting Trap
While 4/5 is shocking any way you look at it, the stronger argument for why this stat is misleading is because it does not take into account how long the prescription lasts. Anecdotally, I was given basically a week's worth after all 3 of my surgeries. Tough to find stats on these things but I could see opiod prescriptions being 2x the number of prescriptions because the number of "doses" are half what other non-addictive substances are. Still, that would make opiods 2/3 of pharmacy-filled "doses".
> 43% of companies will use artificial intelligence (AI) to run their hiring interviews by 2024

Bullshit.

I can imagine 43% (or more) involving some sort of AI tooling in their hiring process. Almost half of all companies 'running their hiring interviews'? No way.
Yes, you have unfortunately discovered that sometimes the hardware itself is an input that isn't always captured explicitly, but also isn't controlled for with sandboxing. Ideally enabling avx512 would be an explicit input to the tensorflow package, but based on your experience it sounds like this feature is detected during the build automatically.

I hope that issues like this get better over time thanks to projects like Trustix, which would make non-reproducibility like this more apparent.
^^^

The cloud vs. on-prem argument often seems to ignore the (enormous) middle-ground. Just because one portion of your architecture would do well to be run outside the cloud, doesn't mean you take out all the other parts you don't want to deal with yourself. Furthmore, "on-prem" might mean in your building, in someone else's building co-located and you rent space and control it, or in someone else's building where they deal with most hardware, etc.

That said, maybe Canva has considered a non-AWS solution and decided against it. Or maybe they've gotten certain better deals from AWS. We can't really know for sure on the outside.

If there's 5 indie games that fit that description, people can easily enjoy, & more importantly, remember them.

What happens when 20, 30, 50 games fit that description? There's no way no good games fall through the cracks. The amount of games developed in a year increases while people's retention remains constant.
I'm sure it exists in management culture, but I'd argue that existence isn't universal: only one data point but I've been a manager for a long time now and, very much because I think it's a ridiculous construct, it doesn't exist in my culture. I've worked one place where it was fairly strong (and wasn't there very long), but it's never really gained much of a foothold in any of the other companies I've worked at. Or, at least, not while I was there, which includes plenty of places where I was an IC or mainly an IC, so couldn't be attributed to my influence.
I'm curious to hear about people who have found themselves in such a great place professionally.

I can work all waking hours on passion projects (including the boring grind - not just the infatuation and ideation phase) as long as it's self directed. Finding work opportunities that aren't orthogonal to long term areas of interest and don't feel like accumulating useless experience and constructing a parallel career is hard.
Confirming a hypothesis I put forth in a different comment: Would you say you and your team have ownership of the product?

That is to say, there isn't one team doing what you're doing and then another separate team trying to graft new features on all the time, is there? Maybe there is, and maybe that causes issues down the line.
You call it 2 extremes, from European point of view there are just mild variations of the same right wing approach, and result differences are even milder (ie democrats starting/expanding wars, conservatives allowing recreational cannabis etc).

> They say the instance you choose doesn't matter that much

I would way that's not true.

Mostly speaking from a Mastodon perspective, but should be true for Lemmy/Kbin too. Healthy small ones with active moderation should be a good choice as they have a lesser chance of being defederated. Many smaller instances recently defederated mastodon.social because of spam. You should also choose one that doesn't defederate other instances left and right (if that's what you're not after).

One man’s “Right wing backlash” is another man’s “Socialist overreach”.
I don't see much difference, except for the existence of variable length instructions making decode harder. Having fully hardwired decoder from macrocode to microinstruction was pretty normal for early microcoded architectures, because a simplest such decoder is to latch the opcode as part of ROM address with ROM output being a wide microinstruction.

If you ensure the indexes are actually multiple microinstructions away from each other (for example, shift opcode to upper part of uOP program counter) you can easily map multiple uOPs when necessary without branching into more complex microcode.

One more reason why techno clubs often have high entry fees.
I agree with most of what you say. But uncommented code isn't necessarily a bad thing. You can often make it self documenting through long and descriptive variables names and function names.

Germany, Intel Agree Subsidies for Chip Plant Worth €10B
We already have names like NixOS and nixpkgs at the top, and individual commands such as nix-env or nix-shell at a lower layer. Perhaps it would be beneficial to adopt official names for other components currently named "nix", such as nixlang (when referring to just the language).
I don't think this constitutes a dialect. It's not distinct enough from Standard English. Believe me, I've been to Miami plenty of times, and I've heard the typical "spanglish," it was fascinating to hear a group of friends rapidly and fluently switching between English and Spanish. But the English and Spanish were distinct. And the two languages are similar enough in their structure that when things get calqued there is often little to no loss of meaning.

Hinglish, which is a language I've learned (well, I learned Hindi and I grew up speaking English) is a radically different dialect of English. Hindi, like Spanish, is also in a lot of ways very similar to English. But there are enough differences where the logic of the language, when used by Hindi speakers, changes enough that in order to understand the meaning of any given phrase one often needs to know both Hindi and English, even if all the words used are English. What one must understand is, all English words are part of the lexicon of Hindi (as are all Sanskrit, Persian, and Arabic words--in fact, alongside the major South Asian literary languages, any language spoken in the region where one is speaking Hindi is a language that loan-words are pulled from. Hindi is more a framework than anything else), such that you can speak Hindi only using English words, and its still basically Hindi. If you don't know Hindi, even if you know every word, you might not understand the meaning of the sentence.

I understand the impetus but linguists for whatever reason are oftentimes politically motivated in this sort of social-justic-y, milquetoast liberal progressive way that stretches the limits of what can and should be rigorously defined as a dialect. AAVE is a real dialect, and there are many different registers of English in the world. I really don't think this rises to that level.

As much as "not" a big fan of java, I need to give credit where it is due.. as my (almost) first language almost 25 years ago I learnt heaps by going through the source code. Sure there were bad and (what are now) outdated conventions etc. But as a junior eng learning how layouts worked, how data structures were implemented, how network code was written and tons more, the Java src folder was a huge treasure mine. Did I mention swing?

but filesystem perf on WSL1 is horrible in general. Windows is much, much slower at touching a bunch of files than Linux, due to the filesystem filter driver architecture and NT's deep understanding of paths, the way NT does file locking, etc. it's night and day if you ever have to deal with something like a giant npm project or a huge git repo.

WSL2 is much faster on files that live inside it. I haven't found the 9P bridge to Windows to be too slow.

honestly, I don't know why they couldn't bypass the FS filter stack or something for WSL1.

I tried Keycloak for my homelab, but I found the resource usage especially on startup to be too high (3 GB memory or something) and since I wanted minimal sever footprint I went with lldap[1] as the user store and authelia[2] to do forward auth using traefik.

Pretty happy with this setup, though it has less features than Keycloak, it's easier to administrate from code.

The D-Wave ones surely can't (theoretically unproven if it's doing anything 'useful', even if 'quantum').The ones that others have, theoretically can in the 'awesome future', but as yet can't (too noisy).

Hype aside - the largest number factored using Shor on a physical device is 21 (unclear if they actually used the result of the factoring to design the circuits like they did with 15).
What's the difference? You still have to find a way to maximize profit at the cost of pretty much everything else. The only difference is that VCs are more willing to play the long game, whereas the stock market wants better results year over year.
Yes, I was about to switch and then they changed their mind.

Switching is really painful, though, because I am quite attached to the ecosystem and it would require substantial work to recreate it from bits and pieces.
Re-release it with the title "Get the Goat"
People should read that lawsuit. It's insane.

https://www.fastcompany.com/90898558/twitter-lawsuit-new-det...

```

THE TOILET

The lawsuit alleges that Boring Company CEO Steve Davis told plaintiff Joseph Killian, a 12-year Twitter veteran who oversaw office design, that Musk wanted to add a bathroom next to his office, so he didn't need to wake his security team (who escorted him everywhere in the building) when he needed to relieve himself in the middle of the night. Killian says he promised to jump right on that, but warned it would take time to get the permits approved.

Davis, the suit alleges, told him not to get the permits saying, "we don't have to follow those rules." When told no licensed plumber would do the job without a permit, Davis allegedly told Killian to hire an unlicensed plumber instead, which would have been a violation of the lease.

>I think it always a mistake to start a goroutine without passing a context to it, since you are no longer able to cancel the goroutine unless you build your own mechanism to do so

Not really a problem. If you pass a channel you can close the channel. And cancel isn't magical, still need to handle it from within a goroutine and adding a timeout isn't any more or less complex than handling context cancellation

> Given that, I think you can handwave it a bit and regard context variables as goroutine local.

That's extremely wrong way to handle it, especially if it is in a bigger app. There is nothing stopping from changing the values in it in other goroutines for example, and one of designed uses of ctx is scatter-gather pattern of spawning multiple parallel tasks that need to be done to respond to request, and other is using ctx to pass data between middlewares (as is often used in web frameworks in Go at least). So you have to at least take care about variable naming across the project and parallel access to them might happen so you need to take care about not running 2 goroutines wanting to write into same variable.
If you live in Austria, the very least the Finanzamt will demand is that you pay 16.7% of the amount as VAT, since you can't prove that the payment is VAT exempt. If you don't declare it correctly from the beginning (eg. because you assume it is a payment from a non-EU country that would be tax exempt) you will face a fine on top of it.

If you get caught up in criminal investigations, eg. because you previously worked for a company that was caught paying people under the table, you will have no way to prove that the donation was legal.

I wouldn't worry about anonymous donations of a few hundred Euros, but a 100k anonymous donation will definitely invite a close look from authorities. In my experience tax audits are stressful enough even if you did everything correctly and have documentation for all payments.
Indexing Discord is going to be tough. The reason is that context is all over the place:

Question in one message. Then two unrelated messages. Then a partial answer by somebody. And so on.

It’s even worse than indexing a PDF. Just breaking stuff into paragraphs and generating embeddings isn’t going to cut it.

Yes, it's basically the same as "on prem", but instead just a bunch of individual (virtual) servers they are managed by a system that provides typical cloud APIs, such as OpenStack.
Microsoft basically used to do this too. We can see that they clearly don't anymore.
We seem to have interesting differences in perspective.

> There, I was able to share my knowledge freely without fear of being penalized or judged through a voting system, or being heavily moderated as is the case with Wikipedia or StackOverflow.

Private communities, especially chats, come with - IMO much stronger and impactful - built-in judging by peer pressure. That is, if someone doesn't like your contribution, it (or you) might get ridiculed in front of the entire community. At the very best, you'll have to defend the merit of what you wrote, which is kind of like replying to criticism on Reddit/HN, except you have to do it real-time. I personally vastly prefer the voting system on discussion boards. Less noise, takes more time to settle, lets you get positive feedback too (this is now partly solved in group chats via reactions), and of course:

> I also didn't have to worry about my contributions being eternally indexed on the internet. As a contributor, this is a feature (much less so for the lurker).

As a contributor, I never thought about it as a feature - on the contrary, I'm less willing to contribute something to a community (as opposed to small group of real life friends and family members) when said community is staying unindexed and unlogged - denying access to information to lurkers, and also to future community members, and even to current community members, as on such platforms search, if it exists, is so bad that it may as well not be there (also group chats make this structurally hard, too). I just don't like, and never liked, contributing anything to knowledge black holes.
Well, not really. Tainted coins is a real, growing problem that BTC hasn't solved yet.

You can install and run Windows for as long as you want without a key. It will just be "unactivated", which has minor mostly cosmetic differences.
OpenLLM in comparison focuses more on building LLM apps for production. For example, the integration with LangChain + BentoML makes it easy to run multiple LLMs in parallel across multiple GPUs/Nodes, or chain LLMs with other type of AI/ML models, and deploy the entire pipeline on Kubernete (via Yatai or BentoCloud).

Disclaimer: I helped build BentoML and OpenLLM.
I mean yes, for maintaining it.

But.

I just want to use a "message queue"(or what ever), the one I'm trying to use has the semantics I need for a project. I just want to use it, not learn to maintain it. I don't want to have to spend weeks reverse engineering the tests to figure out how to make it work, I just want to build with it.

But, how do I know which Queue system to use? does it have the right semantics? what happens when you fill the queue, does it pause the producer or emit an exception? who knows, just look at the code! (this makes selection of systems really hard, unless you have the sacred knowledge)

And thats the problem. Meta might have the world's best scaling primitives, but unless you can find the right person to ask, you'll never really be able to figure out _how_ to use it in your project in any reasonable timeframe
