This might not be a bad market; if you're not experienced with writing things yourself and just need some text and don't want to find/pay a writer, it will do an acceptable job. It's like upgrading from a badly handpainted sign to a nicely printed one.

Yes, measured by impact, foreign terrorism was terrifyingly successful.

Why would that be hard? Aside from company politics, what's stopping Shell or Exxon or BP from outfitting their gas stations with EV charging equipment? Clearly they don't see such a move as profitable right now, but as EV adoption increases, that could change.

I'm not saying doing so is trivial; aside from the equipment cost, many/most/all of those stations will also need electrical supply upgrades. But they at least already have the land, and a company like Tesla will have to deal with equipment cost, electrical supply upgrades, and the cost of acquiring land.

Define tech. AI-awareness is not limited to software-developers and tech-nerds. Anyone who has some software/internet-awarness and follows the news or social gossip, knows about them, or even uses them. So I'd say the echo chamber is more about your general mindset and social bubble.

Everything always takes long than we anticipate. And it's not like AI today is the holy grail yet. It's still slow, expensive, with too many errors, and we are just less than a year in the real hype. Legal systems are busy with working out the corners and acceptance. We are still in the exploring-phase, and this can go on for several years. There will be significant changes in the next years, but the big bang is still upon us, and until then it will a locally fast, but globally average slow change.

Thanks for sharing the exercises! What seems to have helped me was losing weight (not easy at all, but has many additional benefits). There are some additional exercises (look for "hiatal hernia exercises" on YouTube), which are very simple and sometimes can get you instant relief. It's surprising so few people know about them. The comments section under those videos is often full of messages along the lines of "I've been suffering for years, this video changed my life." It's really helpful to know you can do something about it that does not involve taking PPIs every single day.
The difference to me is that with search you can explicitly search only in trusted sources (with e.g. site:...) if you choose to and you get transparency about where the data is coming from.

New Bing is a slight improvement in that you get some transparency about where it's getting information from and can tell it to prioritise accuracy, but can't actually explicitly tell it to use a subset of the web that you personally trust.

> concentrate the discussion on the brutality of the Russian army instead

If you think what the American military did to Mosul and Raqqa is not an utter brutality, there is no hope for your further arguments of moral authority.

The fact is that the US' military is more vile and brutal than its captive civilian population is capable of admitting, or even understanding - since those same brutes own your media industry and will never show you what they did, almost every day since 2003, to utterly innocent human beings.

Cultures that Americas' war-criminal class have deemed inferior - on the basis of racial or religious assumed authority, have been suffering miserably for decades because people such as yourself make excuses for the heinous crimes committed in your name, instead of informing yourself as to the truth and nature of the magnitude of those crimes.

Russia is bad, very bad - but it has a long, long way to go to catch up to the depravity and calamity that the US visits on innocent people, every twenty minutes for twenty years. It matters not one iota to the fathers and mothers digging their children out from under the piles of smouldering rubble left across the landscape, if you think your forces are 'the ethical ones'. You'd know that if you'd taken the time to really, really understand the victims of your state, which are only there because of your own ignorance and failure to reign in your own war criminals as a responsible citizen.

Perhaps you profit from the war machine. This is another reason why people think their war machine is better/more moral than any other war machine, but here's a clue: there are no moral war machines, no ethical war machines, no war machine with a more 'divine purpose set by God'. There are only humanity-destroying apparatus, which exist purely because citizens are too lazy or cowardly to confront their war mongers and send them off to The Hague to rot in chains where they belong. Putin can sit there to rot too - right alongside Clinton and Bush and Biden and Obama and Trump - where they all truly, truly belong. But I assure you, Putins' crimes pale into insignificance when it comes to his peers. You better inform yourself, better.

Changes in API and technical aspects: OP mentions having to shut down their bots due to changes in Reddit's API, suggesting that the platform is becoming less friendly for developers, especially those who contribute to the community by creating bots or other tools. This could discourage tech-savvy users or developers from using or contributing to Reddit.

Financial costs: OP notes having spent a significant amount of money maintaining their bots and server infrastructure. While this may be specific to people who run bots or subreddits, it indicates that participating in Reddit in a significant way can entail considerable personal financial investment.

Concerns about leadership: OP cites the behavior of Reddit's CEO as a reason they would not repeat their investment in the platform. This suggests that ethical or moral concerns about the platform's leadership can lead users to disengage. And really, that's a very valid concern; given how detested Spez is.

Loss of community members: OP predicts a "brain drain" of bot developers and tool creators. This loss of key contributors could degrade the quality of content and interaction on Reddit, making the platform less appealing to both current and potential users.

Change in the platform's character or values: OP expresses a sense of loss about what Reddit used to be, indicating a perceived shift in the platform's character or values. Users who identified with or were attracted to Reddit's earlier ethos may feel alienated by such changes.

Loss of tools: The mention of Apollo, a popular third-party Reddit client, suggests that the discontinuation or loss of favored tools can also lead users to abandon the platform. It implies that changes affecting such tools, whether due to Reddit's policies or other factors, can negatively affect the user experience.

In much of the world, the "credit card" payment goes through a pre-paid card. Then you're actually putting your own money on the line, and even if there's a guarantee, it's a pain to actually go through the process of invoking it.

Here's something to try: think of a really obscure TV show you watched when you were young, even better a specific quote. In my experience Google was pretty good at finding sources on where it came from. But now it's incredibly rare.
I'm not doubting USA air superiority in any plausible war, but it doesn't matter because what's needed is vastly different: reinforcing Ukrainian air defense, without sending planes to fight.

A military that cannot send stingers to allies, right now, is objectively not very capable; focusing on air superiority might be the best choice after all, but it cannot be an excuse for late stingers.

This has nothing to do with websockets and much more with doing hashing and Python-to-native calls. It's comparing generating base64(sha1(something)) in Python which I suppose also means "websocket keys".

I'm not sure why the author implemented SHA1 and a base64 digest thereof manually rather than including a small library, but perhaps that was part of the challenge.

Python can generate a whole lot more keys per second if you enable SIMD, multithreading, or even GPU support. In fact, Ryzen / 11th+ Gen Intel/ARMv8A have dedicated SHA1 instructions that should significantly boost performance here. Together with something like https://github.com/WojciechMula/base64-avx512 I bet you could increase the performance an order of magnitude if daw CPU speed were really a concern.

I suppose three million keys per second ought to be enough for any websocket server, especially for a relatively simple implementation of the code.

> "people who've studied computer architecture" - which most application developers never have

If you are developing an DBMS and haven't studied computer architecture, the best idea is probably to ask more experienced people to help out with your ideas.

From my limited knowledge, I don't think the article is old enough to be obsolete, just that there's a lot more to it.

Not to be gatekeeping or anything, but it is a pretty well studied field with lots of very knowledgeable people around, who are probably more than keep to help. There aren't too many qualified jobs around and you probably have a budget if you are developing a database commercially.

There are 3 Java implementations slower than the faster Rust one, and there are 2 Java implementations faster. But there are only 2 data points for Rust in total.

> Every time I do a CC transaction I’m giving a stranger exactly the information they need to do an entirely different, arbitrarily large CC transaction in my name with any merchant. That’s bonkers.

You may be surprised to know that, when doing a "conventional" CC transaction, you are most certainly not giving any stranger information that would allow them to perform a transaction in your name on another merchant. What you are doing is providing your card information to a PSP (payment service provider) that has been contracted by the merchant and will provide the merchant with a token with which the merchant can trigger a charge request to your card but only to their own pre-approved acquirer account. The merchant can do nothing else with these tokens.

A breach of the merchant's token database would be embarrassing but harmless. A breach of the PSP's database of card numbers would be bad and inconvenient for the cardholders, sure, but it would be a business-terminating event for the PSP as its PCI DSS [0] compliance would be shattered and it would be unable to operate again.

In summary, ordinary card payments are essentially as secure as Apple Pay. The only difference is that in one case you are trusting a gigatech brand which is very saliently involved in the process but whose side-business in payments has only operated since 2014, while in the other case you are trusting businesses that you may or may not have ever heard of —Adyen? Braintree? WePay? Worldline?— but that have probably been dealing with secure payment processing as their primary or only business for much longer.

Right, Python is the new Perl and people are misunderstanding what that means.
Not "almost", it is a completely new language with a passing ressemblance and IIRC was by and large advertised as such from the get go; the name "Perl" was kept as it was a spiritual successor, which they realised made it confusing so they changed it to Raku.

Perl 5 and 6/Raku have as much in common than Perl 5 and Ruby have.

With SE you don't need that much space on Nauvis. You should be targeting 10-30SPM in your first playthru; you will get bottlenecked on extraterrestrial resources as soon as you try to ramp up space science. There are people who beat the game off of a single core drill on Nauvis - what makes this mod take so long is designing all the solutions, rather than waiting for the science to trickle.

Artillery (as well as basically everything from the base game) should be considered early game tech: you will later unlock stuff that would make Palpatine salivate.

If anything, you very suddenly run out of things worth shooting at.

> [...] maybe allow for circuit-controlled timing of when to move into the next cluster.

You can achieve that in the vanilla game by blueprinting the artillery outpost (which would include all the necessary supporting defences, like walls/turrets/roboports/etc). Train rolls in, unloads gun+flamethrower ammo, once ammo buffers are ready set a signal to load ammo into artillery, which will start shooting. Set a timer, every time you load a shell reset it, once timer runs out + there are still shells left - you can set off an alarm that the outpost is done. Use a filtered deconstructor to pick the pieces up and move it all over.

Bonus: use a blueprint deployer (https://mods.factorio.com/mod/recursive-blueprints) to automate the "move to the next sector" part. Check out this guy on Reddit to get some ideas: https://old.reddit.com/user/Drogiwan_Cannobi/submitted/
