Where are you getting any of that from the linked article?
I don't have any reason to not like instances outside of the top 5.
Half of this is correct: goodwill is a balancing item to account for the difference between accounting value and acquisition price.

The other half is incorrect, though: accounting value isn't based on 'projections'. Projections might affect the fair market value of the target (without accounting for post-acquisition synergies). But the accounting value is based solely on historical financial results.
It looks really nice and minimal. Good for blogs. What about form elements?
Spotlight, an open-source tool available on GitHub, now offers improved compatibility for importing image classification datasets from Hugging Face. This makes it much easier to analyze and explore image classification data.
Agree with this, lots of sound bars are crap and even the ones that aren't are very constrained by their form factor. Good speakers can actually make very dynamic audio be less annoying as well, by virtue of being less distorted. Same volume, more signal, less noise.
This service is not ubiquitous which is something I expect of a search engine. From my perspective the limitations lie with the fact you need to be logged-in to their VPN service in order to use it. Yes, it's a way to ensure that only paid customers can use it. But those paid customers will only be able to use it on their personal devices. Nowhere else. Most if not all work environments block third party VPNs.

It’s a very important question. There are of course two obvious readings/real concerns: (1) the untested IP issues concerning models trained on code from outside the firm, (2) the possibility of unreliable code. From my experience working with LLMs heavily since January, I would articulate my philosophy as “LLMs cannot be authors” — this is just to say, “authorship” is less about having actually created or having done the work, but being legally liable which is to say having skin in the game. Assuming for a second IP issues are not a concern, my rule for developers (or content creators) post-GPT: “you now have more responsibility for errors in your code than before, use whatever tools allow you to be most certain.” I hope that this is the world we are entering, not of generalized irresponsibility or irrelevance of humans in an automated world, but that we finally focus on what we decide really needs doing (thus of course that deciding itself) and taking responsibility that it be done as best as possible, however that may be.
We started with TypeScript because it's not well supported with a current solution and none of them support serverless. We wanted to solve serverless first as it's made supporting long-running servers easy.

A lot of folks in the TS/JS community also don't often build distributed systems and it's easy to get wrong. So we think they're hungry for something like Inngest that they don't need to manage or spend weeks learning some complex system. Plus, TS gives us typing for all events/messages.

We already have a working Go SDK that we use internally and we have a test harness that will enable us to add other languages like Rust or Zig more easily. We even have a community member building a PoC for Elixir.
> It can get copy-pasted elsewhere.

I have no experience working with a monorepo but I've read Google has "an army" of people maintaining the monorepo. I would have imagined with enough support like this, you wouldn't need to copy paste code everywhere in a monorepo?

I'd appreciate any insight anyone can share on monorepo. I am fascinated by the idea but I've never had a chance to work with it and people who I've met who have either don't want to or can't talk about their experience with it.
Using the phrase “world view” has become a direct indicator of bigotry, misogyny, fascism, and other mindsets that are a real threat to basic human rights. I suggest finding a new euphemism.
I'll take it one step further: never plug in a Samsung TV. Or better yet, never let one into your home.
If you're interested, I built a stupid simple deduplication algorithm[1]. It ironically uses the avalanche effect of another hash function to implement random projection onto a locality preserving bit vector. It sounds like real computer science bingo but it's actually surprisingly simple and it works much better than it has any business doing.

The timing of this is pretty awesome for me. I’m building a product that requires fairly heavy, scheduled background services. Originally, I had built these services intermingled with my client and API, but it was not ideal from a development or deployment process. Plus we had rolled our own monitoring which was itself a PITA to maintain. With Inngest, I moved all of our background services and processing to a separate sub-repo, and we can develop, deploy and monitor entirely independently from the rest of our product which has really sped things up. Love it. Would recommend for anything event-based!

The last straw for me was the few times I ran into issues, often due to my own mistakes, their support was nearly real-time and worked with me either help me solve the problem or dig in on their end to see where the issue was. Honestly more than anything the support gives me confidence to fully commit to this and use across all my production apps.

Anyway, great stuff all, you’ve built something awesome here.
It is the idea of folks on a platform excluding corporate interests.

The interesting parts are federation, early-adopters, insular communities, and corporate patterns (embrace, extend, extinguish; commercialization; privacy).

That was a good thing. Now Netflix--at least for me--doesn't even give me that for most series/movies; it only says crap like "This movie was the most watched in US this month" or something useless like that.

Tradeoffs to Microservices
I was banned from /r/police for mentioning Philip Brailsford, a cop and murderer that gets a lifetime disability pension for PTSD from executing someone on their knees in a local hotel’s hallway.

I guess they probably hated my speech.
Does “downloadable API software” mean anything to anyone here? It sounds like tech gibberish.
I want to make a FOSS reader that we can run on our own machines. It would poll on demand and be really good at archiving sites/posts. A combination of feed reader and scraping/archiving from residential IPs (at a low rate) where it will almost always be successful.

I want to pair that with an (opt-in) service for syncing feed subscriptions and handing off a stream of things worth archiving (it's often not urgent that this happens, you just want to make sure it happens soon so the content is not lost in a few years). That service could be a very low cost monthly subscription thing plus a FOSS option that you could run on a cheap VPS, etc.

24/7 services are also essential for generating notifications when something in a filter is spotted, being able to have an email gateway, doing things like POSTing items to other sites automatically, etc.

Making that "full" service FOSS is not in the near term plans, though. This is a distributed system that has run 100s of millions of jobs already, has a very specific security and monitoring setup, uses a number of queues and databases, etc. From my past experience, it's really hard to support people with on-premises distributed systems software like this (FOSS or not). I couldn't do this part alone (bootstrapping and can't afford to hire anyone yet).
Yeah that's probably useful. Btw your recent blog posts are sorted in a weird order according to the dates.

Also, and not sure why this is happening, I have the Reeder extension installed on safari and it usually automatically prompts me to open an rss link in the app but it doesn't happen in your case.

I can't even use the button in the browser toolbar to open the feed in the app directly. The only way for me to add it is to manually copy paste the url.
Does Unipolar Depression Cause Creativity?
/r/conservative is a shining example of moderators defining the culture of their subreddit by deleting comments and posts with an extremely heavy hand.
Thanks warrenm! - it sounds like the issue I describe is one that you've seen smart people come up against. Would a fair description of a perfect tool in your mind then be something like:

A analytics experience that A) looks like a nicely integrated part of our platform and, B) which doesn't force us to spend millions of developer hours, user feedback, etc to get it working

This I think would be an 'ideal solution' - if we could achieve that with what we're building do you think it would be useful or would there be more problems you'd foresee?
You could still ignore both returned values. Go shouldn't allow ignoring returns without explicit dogsleds (underscore) at all if it were to stay "in character".
> look at the current unique names migration

For context, Discord went from appending 4-digit identifiers, such as “username#XXXX”, to removing them entirely and demanding names be changed en masse.

This has naturally led to multiple cases of stolen identity, which ironically this was advertised to reduce as you could supposedly unify your identity across-platforms. However it was a staggered, unprioritized rollout, not to mention the entire movement to a less private and secure username model being unnecessary. It truly shows that Discord is unsurprisingly just as bad as Reddit, if not worse in many respects.
We style RSS feeds as part of our custom RSS tool. Most users of that aren't necessarily technical and so providing a more user friendly interface makes a huge difference. You can see an example at https://sniprss.com/sniprss/curiously-creative/

I'd love to explore how we could do more with this as well as I see so much value but like it has been pointed out here, RSS is set and forget for many people and therefore isn't in the majority of user's minds. Also the utility of having content in a feed is undervalued IMHO.
Maybe, sure.

TBH, the case I am more worried than most about is that the actual, biggest use of this will be, not might but will, addiction-mongers in the games space suckering people into downloading apps that are uninhibited by even the relatively low walls that Apple puts into place. Even things as simple as "have a standard payment flow so people know when you are charging them for money" is then off the table, and that makes doing evil really, really easy.
Spain is also in the "wrong" timezone. It's directly south of Britain and should fit in the +0000 timezone, but politics and history put it in the same timezone as France (which should also be in +0000) and Germany.
My point was that "QLED" is actually a registered brand and doesn't represent a specific technology, so Samsung Display could change the underlying tech, adjust the meaning of "QLED" and keep going.

If they replace it with something more expensive they usually give it a new name to sell the higher price, like "Neo QLED"
Looks cool. Is this underline-on-hover behaviour expected?

Discord is convenient and polished, plus there’s only one Discord and many already have an account there.

I don’t agree that it’s a good alternative to Reddit but I can see why people might find it more appealing than something like a Lemmy instance.

I think federated social media can become more appealing but to do so it’s going to have become extremely well-polished and full of features to overcome the need to choose an instance and register an account. There’s not much room for rough edges.
This is quaint. In 1970, computer-driven plotters were already widespread. It would not have been hard to see CAD coming, even with punched cards.
You're right. I've been thinking about picking one up because the software in my Sony TV is pretty bad and Sony stopped supporting it a couple of years ago (the TV is a 2019 model).

I'm probably going to buy one because the ethernet port in my TV recently failed and I had to switch it to WiFi. Streaming on the TV seems to be less reliable and an AppleTV would fix that as well.

If you go to the park and see many happy couples on benches kissing and you've been single and alone for a while, it's gonna be soul crushing.

> Quantitative content analysis of 99 articles according to criteria adapted from Galtung's model finds a discernible dominance of war journalism over peace journalism, thus propagating divisive narratives.

What would “peace journalism” even look like? Peace right now wouldn’t be fair, since Ukraine’s old borders haven’t been restored.

> Analyzing the content of twelve articles sourced from BBC and CNN, published across two distinct time frames, reveals that Western media coverage disproportionately represents the Ukrainian perspective, with the Russian standpoint largely marginalized or stereotypically characterized. The findings indicate that Western media also normalize or trivialize the role of neo-Nazi organizations in the conflict while downplaying potential war crimes committed by the Ukrainian side.

Unbelievable.
Why Tcl?
As much as Russia was wrong to invade, and as great as Zielinski has risen to the occasion. The media swooning over Ukraine does seem over blown. We are presented a black and white picture of good/evil, when the reality has a lot of gray. I'd be happy to see the news report a bit more of the gray areas.
You guys in Germany are still on ADSL? That’s quite surprising, given that ADSL2+ tops out at 20 Mb/s.

Kohlrabi. 'nuff said.
I wonder if the trademark application reads that way, or this website made it up?
This is a great one. I've experienced this myself, especially when you change an event/message and then you need to handle that change in your job/workflow. Things can break pretty easily so you need to have versioning for both.

This is why we've built event schema versioning and versioning for functions baked into the platform. We have big plans for the schema management side of things that bring concepts of data governance to engineering teams. It should just be for data teams. As a bonus, we can also generate language types from schemas easily then.

What else about schema management is a pain? What have you used for this?
Ah yes - I'm getting confused between fakes and stubs.

Either way, RR is good to have in the toolbox.
I don't think any of the third part devs are asking for it to be free. The Apollo devs initial response to the announcement was "I'm honestly looking forward to the pricing and the stuff you're rolling out provided it's enough to keep me with a job. You guys seem nothing but reasonable, so I'm looking to finding out more." Then they announced pricing which is 29x the current revenue per user, and are blocking NSFW content from the API anyway.
