My Xbox 360 controllers are finally starting to drift. So I wouldn't rule out the newer ones just yet.
How much time is it that the systems will remain running? Because it's been 9 months now and Twitter is still running fine. Time to admit that theory has been disproven.

Your average mid level developer (or in my case cloud consultant) at BigTech makes more than the school superintendent in most major cities in the US.

How are they ever going to be able to compete for talent?
To attack discrimination.
You attach a copyright statement that says pretty much what you just said. The tricky part is finding the infringement and paying the legal fees to pursue violations.
Spamassassin, and ip rotation. You use monitoring to check the reputation of the email ip, rotate it out if reputation sinks. Now with ai, you could also have ai check every email for spam and phishing.
No it hasn’t. What’s been happening is that if someone operates a place of public accommodation, they don’t get to discriminate against members of protected classes.

Bigots attempt to reframe this as “conservative speech is being suppressed” and “conservative freedom of association is being threatened” but neither are true. Don’t want to have to serve everyone? Don’t run a business that serves the public.
Yep, fair fix. My favourite bit of Django metabollocks is when they mix in an override for __new__ on models, that won't let you instantiate an instance if the Django "app" the model or any of its dependencies belong to isn't in django.settings.INSTALLED_APPs.

I'm sure they had a good reason for doing this at some point, but I'm just trying to write a unit test for something that consumes a FooModel, no DB access needed, just a small test that doesn't involve starting up all the Django bits, but Django says no, best I can do is creating an SQLite DB and creating all your tables on it.

I have toyed with doing my own metabollocks hackery to circumvent this, but it just makes everything even more fragile.

(Oh, the Django test-runner won't discover tests that aren't subclasses of a Django test class, so no writing a unittest.TestCase for you! You might need Django in it!)

Refuse to defend gay clients, no. Refuse to defend gay rights, probably? The distinction is being drawn between the identity of a potential client and the nature of the creative work being requested.

EDIT: I'm reminded of a recent case in BC where a pre-op trans woman wanted a Brazilian wax and was refused service; the BC human rights tribunal held that while it is illegal to discriminate against trans people, she was being legitimately refused service because the service she was asking for -- waxing male genitalia -- was not a service which was available to anyone else either.
That Sheriff's office not only has a poorly trained SWAT, they also have a military surplus armored personnel carrier, a few shoulder launched rockets just in case things get a little dicey, and extensive reinforcement of the idea that everyone's out to get them and they have to react quickly with the maximum amount of force or their lives are in jeopardy.
Would you trust a government App Store?
I’m learning more about the Twitter situation slowly. Why did it take on massive debt?
“Consistent with the First Amendment, the Nation’s answer is tolerance, not coercion. The First Amendment envisions the United States as a rich and complex place where all persons are free to think and speak as they wish, not as the government demands.”
Newsgroups > Yahoo Clubs > Yahoo Groups > Digg > Reddit > the next great "online community" good enough that you come to rely on it, which of course means enturdification is right around the corner, sure as turds.
Is there supposed to be major difference between KataGo and AlphaGo? Seems you’re arguing semantics there.
How many companies owned by the world’s richest men have had lay offs in the last 18 months?

You are compelled to accept business from protected classes. The government cannot compel you to speak words against your values. In this case the government could compel the evangelical website designer to accept business from a gay couple, but could not compel her to design a website that endorsed gay marriage.

You could always buy DRM free books, or destructively scan + OCR dead tree books.

For destructive scanning, the obvious question is why you’d go through the trouble and not upload it to some sort of shadow libs.

I get the impression that the pendulum is rapidly swinging back to piracy as a moral imperative.

I was happy paying for HBO Max due to the high quality original content, but then they fired all the actors.

So, there was an implicit social contract (you produce tv/movies that generate revenue, we distribute it, and pay you for the next one), but now it has been broken.

From a customer perspective, paying the middle man, knowing the people that produced the product will not be paid is immoral.

(Yes, I know residuals exist. That’s not good enough.)
I have more than 10 controllers spanning most gaming systems, the only one that consistently runs out while playing is the ps5 one. They could have added a few more 100mAs to make it tolerable :(
In my next life, I want this. I work 4x what you do but make double. It's very often not worth it. Your priorities are right. When my cost of living goes down, I'll join you.
I upvoted you, because that's the only way someone from Stripe will respond to your complaint. In general I'd recommend you (and everyone else) move off the platform. There are plenty of competitors that offer APIs that are essentially a drop-in replacement.
I don’t have an issue with governments using “private” cell phone networks for amber alerts, if that’s what you’re asking
Ha ha ha, "market price". As if market forces don't simultaneously collude on prices while blowing smoke up the ass of its customers. Everyone knows that inflated "market price" is the result of a lifetime of commercial brainwashing done on buyers. There will never be a fair "market price" as long as everyone keeps raising their prices because reasons.
Twitter is still $20B away from being in the green from even the most generous estimates. (Elon himself)

Currently Twitter is in the red, and he needs it to not be that and to generate a multi-billion surplus to pay back the investors he took up to finance this.
Ahem.

It's not clear what "dominant" means in an already-niche language, but while Guile isn't very popular you still find little snippets of it everywhere from back when it was GNU's official extension language. Even GNU make embeds a guile interpreter, though I think most packagers turn that off at this point, sadly.
Makes sense. Imagine if a Muslim baker was forced to make a cake with the text "Allah is a False God."

Good choice by the Supreme Court!
One might consider to provide 1 point for self-awareness, but as the great philosopher of our time Bo Burnham said, “self awareness does not absolve anyone of anything.”
You cannot refuse to sell somebody a bicycle because they are gay. You can refuse to write "I support gay marriage" on a custom bicycle paint job. There is a lot of murky middle ground between those two examples but people are still struggling to understand the most clear examples.
Well hold on then, why is it still illegal to buy sex from a consenting adult who isn't being coerced?

What's the advantage to keeping that illegal?

Demand doesn't evaporate because you declare it to be illegal. The sellers will still need to accomodate their buyers who - not wanting to be arrested - will prefer buying in areas where enforcement is lax with all the increased risk that entails.
That is absolutely fascinating. I've spent over a decade doing R&D for computer interface. I've played with EEG off and on. I've done a lot with myoelectrics. I spend a lot of time trying to find color, light, sound, and rhythm that sum up stressful light up rectangles into a more human mode.

I'm super curious about your manufacturing journey and your product. No pressure on response turnover or really any larger goal, but would you mind if I email you some time? I think we might have some overlaps that make for enriching conversation.
thought to be is the primary achilles heel of these efforts

they assume the sex workers have no agency and give them no voice in these proposals, opinions and legislation.

“believe all women, except them”.

many workers are saying “labor rights and harm reduction” and that thinly veiled eradication and weighing differences based on power dynamics does.not.help.
You trust the competence of the government to keep your information private?

And I can guarantee you they are going to bring in high priced consultants to do the work because no government or board of education is going to ever pay software developers their market value and have them on their payroll.
There's almost no reason in 2023 [0] to target LLVM IR directly anymore for a new programming language. I would highly recommend targeting MLIR instead of LLVM. [1]

Eventually, your language will benefit from adding a "middle end" and MLIR is the best choice for building that today (and it's likely to remain so for the foreseeable future, since there's very little competition and it has a ton of momentum). It handles infrastructure-level middle-end stuff that it's difficult to improve upon, so you'd just waste dev hours reimplementing boilerplate stuff yourself.

Before you build a middle end for your language, you can just target MLIR's LLVM IR dialect and you'll be around a dozen lines of code away from compiling with LLVM and invoking LLVM's JIT. So it's basically cost-free to target MLIR today and have an easy path to incrementally defining a new dialect for your middle end when it becomes profitable to do so.

[0] A good reason to not target MLIR is you are targeting an existing runtime like the JVM or CLR, or writing a transpiler to some existing language (e.g. JavaScript). Since you mentioned C as an option, this wouldn't apply to you.

[1] MLIR is part of the larger LLVM project.
By segmenting the markets to target different audiences. Same goes for GPU markets.

The opposite has occurred and it wasn't very pretty to look at.

Or Remind, or ClassDojo, or Parentsquare, or whatever our school district goes with next year. I think they could all do SMS delivery, but none of them got it quite right. The apps are all buggy too. Various updates are often squirreled away on Twitter or "$schoolname Parents" Facebook group.
This sounds like where I am right now. Made some bad choices in alignment and I'm flat. Maybe I'll crawl out, maybe I won't. I have an exit strategy though, so in the long run, it will pay off.
The government hasn’t had much to do with the underlying infrastructure of the internet for decades.
They're all panicking for money. Modern capitalism demands not just stable businesses, not just profit, but quarterly increasing profits for all of eternity. This is obviously-to-anyone-who-isn't-a-grifter impossible and company after company will die being forced to chase it.
Goodbye, Reddit.

Yup, same thing, wasn't sure what timezone it was gonna happen in, then all of a sudden it did. Screenshotted a couple pages of my (cached) home page for the memories.
> He's one of the few people strenuously warning about the possibility of this war escalating to a nuclear exchange and reminding us that preventing this is the only thing that matters. In my book that makes him less batshit than most.

This is also very conveniently a Russian talking point to just make Ukraine bend over and take it.

If we want to stop the risk of nuclear war from increasing drastically in future we need to help defend Ukraine itself from Russia to the fullest.

If we don't, it will become clear to the world that only nuclear weapons can defend a country from having their land grabbed by Russia and other countries and nuclear proliferation will go through the roof.

Nuclear proliferation going through the roof will drastically increase the chance of a nuclear exchange in the future.
Exactly this, I’m happy of what’s happening with twitter and Reddit and the likes, maybe it’s the reality slap the users needed to get back to smaller communities.
one of the many reasons why i would never work for google
I imagine part of the terms of using Twitter give the corporation ownership of comments. As is their right.
It's pretty close to the premise of 15 Million Merits
Speech in this case refers to more than spoken words
Our Indian Condo complex generator regularly takes more than 30 seconds to start up. Even the best case is likely at 10 seconds so only having such a small cushion sounds dangerous.
I've seen the future of the web (right now we're living it) and it's full of dead links and urls to paywalled content.

A very sad state of affairs
Let's consider the case of a disabled person. As a class disabled people are a small minority that doesn't on average possess great wealth. A business and indeed in some areas all or most of business in a category may profitably choose to focus on other customers and make it impossible for such customers to avail themselves of that category of good or services.

Then consider black diners during segregation. Minorities like disabled folks are a minority of the population with a proportionally even smaller portion of the wealth. Like disabled people they could be unprofitable to serve as bigots may not want to sit down to break bread near minorities.

In both cased we decided as a society not to give merchants a choice for the overall good of society and those folks.

Furthermore ensuring businesses are conspicuously made to do normal things like serving all customers sends a not so subtle signal that those people are normal and acceptable and those attempting to isolate them are transgressive.

If we can leave off speaking in generalities there actually IS a wrong and a right side to this affair. It actually IS OK for people to be gay and the converse position is a mental disorder. Not all "preferences" are equally morally grounded and it does nobody any good to prop up mental disorders like religious conservatism as if they were normal acceptable positions.
Except when you test that something is *not* an instance of something else and the test wrongly passes. Then you'll be scratching your head trying to fix a bug already in production.
I disagree. This is only about value extraction.

Let's walk down this slippery slope for a bit.

It's 8am, your alarm clock doesn't wake you up. You've run out of alarm credits again. They're cheap, but you have to refill them every month because the refill site wants to show you ads first.

You wake up late at 9:15, you're glad for the extra rest, but you won't make as much money today because you will get in late. On the other hand, you avoided the worst of the surge pricing for your shower.

You're finally ready to leave. You order your autonomous taxi and are given a choice of which navigation engine to use. You don't pay for UberPremium, so it's an extra $5 to unlock the Waze Ultra traffic avoidance system for the ride. Yesterday you chanced it with the free nav, and got stuck in traffic for an extra hour.

On the ride you pull out your laptop and connect to the in-car wifi. Within a couple minutes your free DNS requests are used up. You can either watch an ad to continue, or buy more dnscredits. It's only $5 for a thousand more credits, that should last you through Thursday.
This also seems like another attempt to combat web scraping.

They put search behind login and now tweets themselves to try to push people to use their API. Twitter is still the bigest source used in public sentiment analysis and it's still relatively easy to scrape with login so this just shifts everything to grey/dark markets. The essentially means public researchers, students w/e lost access while dark market value increases significantly.

So, as per character, this just empowers corporations and punishes public. Hopefully this means the upcoming end of Twitter.
I also use Vinegar, it's great. I recommend the developer's other apps, too. They tend to be simple apps which do one useful thing well, and also have a sense of humour.
Also The Incredible Secret Money Machine, which may be more relevant to this audience.
Hippos aren't predators.
Didn’t the guy who founded the web basically make something like that?
What about when these giant kites become massive plastic oceanic nightmares absolutely carpeting the sea floor?

Which will happen. Guaranteed.

If you thought the discarded nets were bad...
Because Elon was forced to overpay for Twitter and getting that much money is difficult.
There's no possible way this is the cause. Like, at all. The simple sniff test is that blast radius of the passing of this law would be way way way larger than "reddit charges for API". We'd see many other sites follow suit with reddit.

IANAL but I'll put down $100 that this law has nothing to do with reddit's API changes. First person to prove me wrong gets it. I'd like a quote from spez that says, paraphrased "If Virginia didn't pass the law we wouldn't have started charging for the API".

Name calling aside, putting high density housing in suburban neighborhoods with no transit stops and no additional parking is a terrible idea.

(You seem to be advocating for this, given the content of the article.)

It would be much better to upzone stuff in areas that are already medium density, since those areas have busses, trains, walkable shops, etc.
Being forced into service to anyone should be repugnant to a free society.

It's the antithesis of self-ownership.

Let's follow Godwin's law:

Imagine a gay Nazi come into your printing store and demands that you print Nazi propaganda.

Do you really want to be forced to print that material simply because the customer is a member of a protected class?
Had Reddit never updated their app and only relied on 3rd party apps then buy up the two with biggest market reach (assuming different app on Apple and Android), and simply used AdSense in subreddits until they could build a self serve ad center and operated extremely lean with no sales, 5 devs max, a few marketers and growth experts they could probably keep yearly expenses down to 5 million or less and ad revenues would far exceed that.

They could also put affiliate marketing on Reddit sidebars and share profits with moderators and community regular contributors.

On porn subs they could use the ads porn sites use that are annoying, but it's porn so who cares.

They could create some sort of YouTube player with their own pre-roll ads for embeds. They could create a premium plan that actually has value, like tools for business and marketing to schedule posts to multiple subreddits, and get feedback on if the post will be moderated before it even gets posted.

They could've given every profile it's own link tree, and created an onlyfans competitor so onlyfans models could just do all their work on Reddit itself.

I've got 50 more ideas to monetize the shit out of Reddit, the admins are just too stupid to get anything done and figure this out. Many other business leaders could have made Reddit successful.

Facebook and Reddit aren't a lot different and Facebook is one of the biggest companies on the planet.
I got flagged by dang the other day for calling spez some kind of insult. It bothered me.

Spez is inarguably incompetent as a leader and I realize that if I saw him in public, I would point and laugh.

Truly. I understand the fear of social media companies dealing with data scraping for rivals to run AI models, but it has been truly fumbled from a messaging perspective.
This might be okay with me if it weren't for the fact that browsing through an account means Youtube can track my viewing habits.
They can still scrap it but now with an account cookie? Also, what’s the problem of scraping it, it’s just like browsing systematically.
No significant difference, for our purposes they are more or less the same thing. But KataGo is an open source project out of Jane Street Capital and probably a bit stronger than AlphaGo (which was a Google project that was never released AFAIK). KataGo is also quite a bit bigger than AlphaGo in terms of popularity because people can actually play around with it.

It is like the BSD Kernel vs Linux - in many ways the differences are minor but they are different projects.
So this is like the iframe Array isn't the same as the parent window's Array issue? I guess both Array types are same in semantics, but have different prototypes for isolation so code in one context can't dick with code in another context in a language where dicking with other code trivially used to be very commonplace. Good ol Prototype.js used to love extending every DOMElement prototype it could.

Do you need to use an instanceof in the example code? I feel like it's already covered that in the first assertion, unless there's some horrifying way that another type could be implicitly coerced into an array looking shape.

expect(values.bar).toEqual(['a', 'b'])
