Your response suggests you have fully compensated Eric Hallahan? This is at odds with the Forbes piece.

I doubt you yourself can clear this up (it's a he-said/she-said conundrum) - but perhaps Eric is around to confirm/deny this?

> Regardless, every user notices when Apple has shipped an OS update, because your device rebooted.

I would venture to say that these users notice because of the notification that says "Your device has been updated to iOS <version>", not because of the 2 AM reboot.

That notification, of course, being entirely within Apple's discretion.

Apple can effectively silently run whatever code they want on most iPhones and iPads.

Something I've noticed, coming as no surprise, is that the movement towards open data and analysis got its start in fields where the data are collected in digital form in the first place. Of course lab notebooks could be authored directly on a computer, but it's still hard in fields such as wet chemistry, where you're wearing gloves, handling toxics, and don't have hands free to move a laptop around. Plus, in most academic labs, the workers are still expected to supply their own computers, and are justifiably reluctant to donate one to the cause.
My gas car registration fees in Seattle are $160/year total. Of that either $80 or $120 is flat by weight and the remainder scales by value. If your fees are $500/year, your vehicle is extremely heavy, expensive, or both.

Summary of article: The MIDI 2.0 standard has been under development. The standards body which develops it has the rule that all standards development happens behind closed doors, under NDA, but the NDA is lifted when the final version of the standard is formally published. Microsoft has been working on a new version of the Windows MIDI subsystem to support MIDI 2.0. Microsoft wanted to open source it, but until now couldn't due to the NDA. Now the standard is published, Microsoft is legally allowed to change the repo from private to public – https://github.com/microsoft/midi – and this blog post is to announce they've done that.
Wow. I'm on the other side of Puget Sound from Seattle, over in Kitsap county, and I'm paying just under $70/year to register my car (a 2006 Honda CR-V).

I knew there were extra costs in King county (and Pierce and Snohomish counties) due to a regional transit excise tax but had no idea it could raise costs that much.

It looks like it is 1.1% of MSRP x depreciation, where depreciation comes from this table [1]. Ouch!

Also, pointing to existing tools with glaring usability problems is not a justification for creating yet another tool with those same usability problems, amplified.
They are absolutely not. The author is clearly confused from drinking too much 雄黃酒 even while claiming the contrary.
Don't be too sure. Solar panels can power more than just batteries of a vehicle. Regardless, public transit or a bicycle would be better than all of them
VFX has been turbo-fucked for a long time. I don't know quite why. Part of it is the employment law specific to the geography, e.g. comp time after 50 hours, overtime after 60 hours in Culver City (this seems to have changed since I worked there in 2005 though).

The studio I worked at lost a ton of money on films but did them for prestige, then tried to break even on grueling commercial and episodic work, all while pinching every penny imaginable--like firing a staff artist when his twins were born and bringing him back as a contractor to avoid paying his health insurance.

Around Superbowl time artists were forbidden (not physically, but by threat of e.g. "leave and you're fired") from leaving the studio for the weekend until all the Superbowl commercials were finished and rendering.

Another vote for IotAWatt . I installed one a few months ago. No cloud app. visit an IP to view the local webserver. Has a neat graphing functions, and can pipe data to InfluxDB. + Home Assistant intergration. Love it. I wish they had a 30 circuit variant, so I can monitor every single circuit in my panel.
Too soon? Is there a context to this I'm missing?
Is systemd solely an init system? Did it extend its scope far beyond that?

They are saying they've opened repo for the new version of the Windows MIDI subsystem – https://github.com/microsoft/midi

They couldn't legally open it until now due to the MIDI Association's NDA.
If you were a welder brazing furnace piping with silver or sweating on a drinking water main valve with acetylene and silver solder because MAPP gas just wasn't fast enough for you to make it home in-time for the mrs'es schedule, realize you're playing Russian roulette in the synthesis and manufacturing of a bomb with variable stability from untouchable azide to friction/shock insensitive triggerable by extreme process or repair heat.

Just never, ever let silver and acetylene gas touch.
I don’t believe such projects actually exist, and my two theories are a bit whacky, but one of:

1. They’re actually used as ways of laundering money out of government pockets without congressional oversight. The whole “oh but it’s top top secret” excuse is an easy one.

2. The positive and negative attention are all part of a plan to convince enemy nations that the US has access to incredible technology. I mean, if I wanted to spook Putin, I’d probably also sign a bill condemning the work on the trillion megaton nuclear bomb. What trillion megaton nuclear bomb? The one we’re condemning!

But let’s pretend it is real.

What is the point of congress withdrawing such funding? Elon steps in, and then such tech is in the hands of a private company rather than the government. How is that a good thing for the US govt?

It sounds (to my naive British mind, which knows very little about congress or its stance on various things) that it’d have been preferable to give a timeline for these projects to present themselves to congress. Immediately condemning them and convincing whistleblowers to present them instead just seems like a backwards way of doing it.
> mental gymnastics people here make to discredit some of our most elite intelligence officials

It takes no mental gymnastics whatsoever to discredit them. They've done that themselves, time and time and time again. It takes mental gymnastics to retain trust in them.
It determines flakiness in aggregate across all builds. It also does automatic retries but it does so for the purposes of marking a run as flaky which it then remembers. And it's your team's responsibility for making your tests stable. If they're not stable, they're not going to fail builds which is the correct response (a ticket is filed & it's your team's job to keep those tickets under control). The neat thing is also that if you fix the test and it's no longer flaky, it gets automatically added back in & the ticket is closed (in case you forgot).

You pulled that from the UCLA site, which is the microcontroller version from 15 years ago. That version actually burned the entire heap into the binary and did not allow dynamic allocation. In that case, no GC, write barriers, allocation, etc was necessary.

Today's Virgil (on GitHub) does allow dynamic allocation, but you can still initialize an arbitrarily large heap at compile time. It's not really related to ARC.

I'm sure there are effects on metabolism from eating less, but it should still be the same basic premise, burn more calories than you take in every day and your body will need to use its reserves to keep going. There may be medications you can take to make it easier, but at the end of the day, there will need to be discipline. If you are gaining weight on the current caloric intake and metabolism, you'll need to consume less calories until you are heading in the right direction. It won't be fun, it will be hard and you'll more than likely be hungry at times, but it will get easier over time if you get in to the routine.

The answer is they don't want to be ones maintaining it; after majority of distros migrated it's just a wasted effort on their part.

Distros that use it can maintain it for their needs; it's pretty logical.

There is very little reason for distro to support systemd and support sysv scripts.

I am surprised it comes from red hat to be honest, if anything I'd imagine them needing it for some legacy software their customers use that might come only with init scripts.

Then again, in most cases rewriting init script to run as systemd unit is very straightforward; but then I saw some fucked up init scripts too, like ones trying to start and manage multiple services at once (here hearthy "fuck you" to packetfence developer that thought that would be a good idea)
These articles are kind of funny - they cargo cult things that are generally sound so you can't really be mad but it still reads like a shibboleth.

Like the claim that jax's jit speeds things up or that it looks at whole functions. Fact: jax doesn't have a jit on its own, at least not a machine code jit (maybe they cache ir/lowerings). Jax has an IR and a ~semi-novel perspective on tracing. That's it. Note that tracing means basically the exact opposite of "whole function" compilation. Jax also has two backends XLA and LLVM (through MLIR/stablehlo). Now I'll honestly plead ignorance of XLA - it probably does have some kind of jit but what it definitely has is hyperoptimized kernel implementations (thanks to hundreds of millions in dev time invested by Google).

LLVM definitely has a jit but is it really that good that it beats numpy which itself is pretty well optimized (since it's so mature)?

Then the suggestion to use numba: numba does do whole function compilation but numba just punts to the LLVM jit. So like what's significance of suggesting one vs the other?

So this is my point: it's always a good thing when people search for optimization opportunities (more perf, less wall time, less power consumption, etc etc everyone wins) but it's not enough to just buy into the buzzwords. Or at least one shouldn't buy in and then present themselves as having actually done the due diligence. In serious compiler/perf engineering work everything is measured and remeasured and ablated and no one will take your seriously if you don't present your kernel counters (I'm kidding on the one but not really). Not everyone needs to be a compiler engineer but then you shouldn't pretend either.
Yes, agreed. It makes sense to support Congress to get this info.
Well, I did say "partially."

I think we're all operating under a dysfunctional paradigm, Great Man or whatever. You say he wasn't that bad, I say he was worse, you say, "Don't complain about Vandal Savage because they have Hitler on ice,"[1] but fundamentally, the question remains: why did we turn over so much of urban design theory over to any singular kook at all?

I question the premise; urban life was well-understood, but dealing with rapid post-war (re)builds and hordes of personal vehicles, not so much. It was a choice, to consider either. And we let him/them choose, and let the choices filter down to those who'd marry them with weird and destructive and uncompassionate social ideals (and, often, a profit motive).

So, I continue to hold that we had the means and knowledge to ignore him and build better neighborhoods, but we listened to him and suffered, instead.

I think most of us agree that you should leave if put on a pip...but I think we should remember that quitting prematurely may not be the best financial move for many as you'll need to rely on savings and not qualify for unemployment. It's certainly in the company's best interest if you feel stressed and shamed enough to quit early and save them the hassle.

DO you have actual experience in having problems converting init scripts to systemd or you're talking entirely out of your arse?

From my experience yes, even the legacy stuff is easy enough to convert.
The effect of sugars certainly is plausible. I'm not saying milk is good or bad (I personally don't consume any animal products fwiw). I'm just saying that your fears about miRNA are completely unfounded.

Look, I know you can't hear this, but these papers are really bad. They cite papers that have really poorly designed experiments that don't actually show what they claim to show. It's surprising, but you can publish papers that are obviously wrong.

Here's a non-scientific analogy: say you're on a desert island, and there are a bunch of rabbits and one wolf (you can also see the whole island from wherever you stand - it's extremely small - so you know there's nothing else hiding anywhere). You immediately throw the wolf into a solar-powered wood chipper, and subsequently observe that the rabbits and healthy and happy. But then a year later all the rabbits are gone. You then tell me: "I know, the wolf must have eaten them!" Uh...no. They drowned and floated away, or dug burrows underground, or you ate them in a fever dream and forgot about it. But the wolf has been gone for a long time.

Your digestive tract is basically the wood chipper. Exosomes are little droplets of oil that contain water and other water-soluble molecules on the inside. But bile (which your body produces) will dissolve them. Everything that's on the inside spills out and is digested further.

RNA and DNA that might be inside exosomes also gets digested. You produce enzymes that chop them up into individual bases, so any information they contained is destroyed. A double wood chipper!

So when I read these papers and they claim miRNAs in exosomes are flooding all over your body, I have to wonder how they measured that. And the answer is: never by sequencing, which would be definitive. They always use some method that is guaranteed to generate false positives, like just using a fat-soluble dye to label the exosomes. That dye is going to keep infiltrating the body long after the exosomes themselves have been digested. Or they just mix exosomes with cell cultures and pretend like that's meaningful.

Again, I urge people to abandon any non-plant based foods, but these claims about miRNA are unscientific and contradict an enormous body of evidence.
I hate this but man am I tempted. I take my old car out for like 2k miles a year.

I think of getting rid of it but it takes so little time & money to keep around, and it's great being able to do occasional road trips. Otherwise I'd totally get rid of it. Insurance is the biggest cost, but pretty cheap all-in-all.

Given how little it's used, and given what a generally chill driver I am, I do think I deserve a better deal. Then again, it's old & I don't think it has OBD, so I'm probably not eligible anyways.

I saw Span a few times. It is a nice idea, but I'm personally not a fan. Doing switching at the panel level seems very clunky. In reality, switching should be done at the device level. Ie per fan , light etc. If they had a self contained server similar to IOTAWATT that just instruments the power draw of each circuit then I would be a fan.

If you are a computer scientist, deliver a permalink hosted Docker image for a paper that runs fully-unattended by default and produces the graphs and data in the paper verbatim. If you cannot do this, you must turn in your nerd badge and report to the cryptobros for reassignment. You win a Medal of Honor nerd badge if the code is a literate programming quine embedded in TeX source and plays a crack demoscene track while doing an AI DOOM speedrun in ANSI.
I did this from scratch. There's a few huge problems. Do you have a charter? Can you supply the logistics for the regulatory compliance overhead? Have you selected an appropriate location in the FI pipeline to integrate? Not all banks have equal access to this pipeline.
I remember hearing on a podcast several years ago that there is this underground network of buying traffic where legitimate websites can someone buy traffic through these click farm sites (e.g. top 10 X where you have to click next every time). And they can somehow transfer it to their metrics. The basic underlying idea was that pretty much all online advertising and media companies are sitting on fraudulent stats and all advertisers would probably wake up and the bubble will pop.

I can't find any information about this in particular because I don't know the term to search for. Does anyone if this is true or how to find out more about this underground network?

Fun fact: Debian, thanks to those dependencies, had ability to start SysV services in parallel, before any of that fancy upstart/systemd happened.

It just had batch job that solved the dependencies, ordered the init scripts numerically, and then started in batches all of those that started in same number (IIRC, there might've been a bit more fancy stuff there too).

It was kind of worse systemd but systemd wasn't around back then
You can use these within JSX! I use <details> and <summary> all the time. Not so much <dialog> — since there are still accessibility issues by default, I’d rather use a library that wraps it. If and when <selectmenu> drops you can bet I’ll be ditching Radix for the native solution.

In addition to this being a false dichotomy - art is a luxury, not a right. Even if there wasn't already a massive amount of art being created by people who do it for fun in their own spare time (that is - unpaid) - there's no reason for me to pay money for art that I don't want to consume.

(under our current system, people pay money for art that they want to consume, and so art that most people don't want to consume doesn't get made very much - but it still gets made)
Yeah it is massive entitlement writ large, to not only think there is such a thing as an entitlement to a business model but thinking that customers are obligated to drive hours out of the way just to patronize them.
Because they really don't like the TV for some reason/ Or an expensive purchase that should last for years falls apart after 9 months? Leaches who have made many companies cut back on generous return policies with "my ten year old coat is worn out, replace it" are basically turds who make life worse for other people.

Right out of college I worked in a low morals lead generation company. They paid one of the salesman to write content and two of my fellow tech guys made websites off the content to collect real estate leads. The CSS generation might need a little human touch for aesthetics, but yeah you don't need to pay the people for the majority of this low effort trash anymore.

Which is bad... because I think the soul crushing work was what kept us from producing content at the rate a GPT assisted process will.
