Hopefully they'll never catch on to the VPNing to cheaper locations when buying tickets. Air travel is such a mess on every level.
Tensorflow has some advantages, like being able to use tf-lite for embedded devices. JAX is amazing on the TPU, which AFAIK pytorch doesn't have great support for.

I assume most people will still research in PyTorch, but then move it over the Keras for production models if they need multi-platform support.
As a Canadian I wonder how available this new stuff is here.

Why? Do you believe it would accumulate spam and negativity because it's inexpensive for anyone to submit a review? What if there was a cost attached to posting a review?
PHP hypermedia app (HTMX), without framework or dependencies
Hello! I created a simple example of how to build a quite capable PHP app with HTMX, simple template rendering (PHP is already kind of a templating language!) some error / exception handling and other goodies. This is more of an experiment then something useful, but it is one of the few server side languages that I could build all of this without any framework. Less moving parts and more hypermedia fun.
Last time I tried to throw it on an old box it couldn't handle it due to the lack of IOMMU. Granted this was like... 5 or so years ago? I think my newer laptop could probably handle it, so maybe it would be worth giving another shot.

I'd love to see some more resilient options for hosting services past-death. Filling up a Hetzner account with $20k and letting it ride seems like a ridiculous plan but maybe that's the general idea. You'll also need some way to keep the DNS alive, which is a second major challenge. And your Let's Encrypt better keep working too, since so many web capabilities required HTTPS.

Hopefully there's no CVEs that cause your online systems to be overrun by bots & get taken down. Back in the 90's everyone was all freaked out that "oh no, computer systems would keep changing so much over time, how will we ever be able to use old systems?" but today it feels like running an ancient apache httpd or ancient nginx would actually kind of be ok, if it weren't exploited.

For a lot of people, just having a static http site they can zip up is probably a great option, if preservability across the ages is the goal. I do wish we had more planning & options for long-term hosting. Over time, it seems likely that interest in this will tick up. I'd love to see a Kuberentes co-op dedicated to ultra-affordable long-term hosting; it seems plausible that this kind of base infrastructure could port forward indefinitely, and having things like a thicker L7 gateway offers some significant security advantages versus containers or services being open to any traffic.
Making such assumptions about what is correct or proper use is why c++ is so successful, it doesnt make assumptions it leaves it up to the project / community using it.
Go ahead make a language that dictates alot and makes srict assumptions it will be depricated or forced to open up before the end of the decade.
Notr this is why i think python and lisp is so populare meta programing is very powerful and expressive.

It depends on how you mean. If you're a web dev, and/or willing to mess with CSS, then perhaps it's more configurable? But there is significant friction in doing so, even if you do know how to work at that level. In terms of what normal users can realistically do, the browser is much less configurable.

Also, that pretty much only affects the look, it doesn't affect how the browser behaves.
Typical Microsoft. A name starts gaining traction and they rename it. Azure AD is simple and effective. What the heck is an Entra and why do I want it to manage my ids?

One good thing is that homeowners, don't really have to pay for water in the UK - it is not possible to cut off a non-paying customers. Also, once your water bill debt grows, the debt is sold to a collector company, that have little power in the UK, so you just need to ignore threatening mail and you'll be good. I've practiced it for 5 years, I'm not too proud of it, but the water bills were a crime in the other direction.
FWIW the assistant activation training is far more sensitive than everything else. It's designed to pick up the activation words in all sorts of situations, even if it can't understand what you say afterwards.

Why not? My 2nd monitor is portrait. The window manager tiles are ~1080x630.

I have Word open in one right now. Right above the tile with the browser I'm typing this comment into.

But, I know, I said something about a tiling window manager so my options are icky. And I probably have a technical job, double ick. No parallels could be drawn from my experience to what normal people with desk jobs would do or want.
Intimidating and scaring people before they have done anything is worthy of outrage. That should not be acceptable at airports anywhere. And that's before you even consider that what the kid was trying to do was not unethical, so receiving any punishment whatsoever is outrageous.
It is surprising how after all these years, Emacs still doesn't have the all the GUI capabilities as Zmacs, or Interlisp Executive/SEdit.
So bizarre how web browsers and Windows itself refuses to stop eating vertical space when widescreen monitors have been the standard for probably 15 years now. Windows 11 went so far as to remove the ability to relocate the task bar to the left side!
I have first hand accounts from decision makers about the challenges these decisions were faced with and have worked with many engineers in adjacent areas over the years.
You only need to write a training loop function once. Then you can just pass to it a model, dataloader, etc, just like you would if you used a training loop written by someone else in Keras. The only difference is it would be hidden from you behind layers of wrappers and abstraction, making it harder to modify and debug.
The whole problem with this shit is they don't always need a warrant.

If you are a non-us citizen or you're deemed "a terrorist" they can do whatever.

This complicates further with crap like the US spying on say Swedish residents and then forwarding information to Sweden. Technically; Sweden isn't spying on it's citizens, the US is. But it's the same result.

Everyone has always known that if you buy your tickets in advance, I think 2 weeks was the sweet spot, they were cheaper than buying them day of type of thing. Hell, even buying concert tickets in advance used to offer a slight discount, as the promoter use use the money from pre-sales to pay deposits.
Dude, Where’s My Recession?
Exactly, the one thing I oft think is when I hear about some metro, such as bart, or MUNI, or some other big-USA-city-metro woes, like NYC subway etc... complain that they need more money to handle efficiencies or some stupid shit ;

I always think that every single USA-based transit administrator, or even train conductor, should be forced to do an internship in Tokyo, Singapore, Hong-kong, shanghai beijing etc...

You want to know what VALUE YOU SHOULD BE _PROVIDING_ then go find a rail/transit system that fn works, is clean, is on time, isnt a crippling financial bullshit on the people... go do some transits in these countries to see what a shameful position USA is in this regard. And you - specifically and personally who work for these transit orgs in the US and are too stupid to even see the simple truth of how Fd the US is in this regard.
Is England especially bad compared to the G7?
Stuff like this is hard to validate. For most renaissance artists, their self-portraits are far from photorealistic.

There is also quite a big difference between painting from nature and by construction from the mind, which I think is important here. I suppose that one learns a certain template for faces, mostly by practice. If most of that practice is on self-portraits in a mirror, then, yes, the rote characters may look like that face as well. It would take deliberate practice to have multiple templates available. Any comic book artists who'd like to chime in here?

Observing this phenomenon in contemporary artists is troublesome, because they are so much influenced by photography, not only by anatomy or live observation.

An interesting contemporary artist in this context might be Philip Akkerman [1]. He has made over 10,000 (!) self portraits, nearly half of them are paintings.

Thank you. This is the calculation I was looking for.

2% leakage is very conservative. The amount of additional pipeline infrastructure necessary to achieve this at scale is daunting. It will have a lot of leaks.

Flying through the US for any international flight you always have to collect your bags, clear customs and immigration, then re-check them.

The US does not have the concept of international transit lounges like other countries do, where you can get off plane 1 and sit in a room that is not technically inside the country (so you don't clear customs or immigration), then just get on plane 2 and go to another country.

I suspect there would be cases where it's cheaper to book a connecting flight through the US to some other country (or US city) and just get off at your first stop.
Thoughts on My Dating App?
Thoughts on my upcoming app that allows you to date specific people in tech (you can filter based on role/company). More like a dating app for the tech community. For instance, as a product designer at Uber, I could choose to date a software engineer at Google.

Think of what Blind did for the tech community, but this time, it's strictly dating.

And since we are primarily concerned about money (TCs) so yeah: there is a TC or GTFO filter

But it was not really a business, that's what I meant. It was done for fun, and so that Pud could make a name for himself.

That totally makes sense. Being just a forum and just for fun is less of a legal target I think, at least back then. That's cool you wrote a book about it, I had no idea.

Nowadays probably the only way to do this without censorship or taking bribes to promote or censor would be on a .onion site I think and it would probably get DDoS'd into oblivion.
Right. The more efficient way to use methane to heat a home (vs. current furnaces) is to burn it in a CC power plant and heat the home with a heat pump.

This is correct (source: working in web perf for 5 years).

INP is the time between you click/press a key/etc and the moment the next paint happens. It’s only measured for on-page interactions, not for navigations.

Basically, two researchers at the University of Minnesota decided to submit buggy patches of the Linux Kernel and see what happens. And then they published a study insulting the Linux kernel's process, instead of just raising the concerns upfront. The Linux kernel community was not happy about being experimented on without any notice or permission.

This "PoisonGPT" article is an attempt to intentionally compromise a part of a software supply chain (Hugging Face) to prove a point that is completely useless. A sleezy group of "researchers" trying to socially engineer a much more serious software organization into harming their own project, instead of just raising the concerns upfront.

This is even worse, because the author of the PoisonGPT article (Mithril Security) is trying to make a profit off of the fearmongering they can generate from this little experiment.

> client-side rendering makes interaction with a site faster!

I am going to have to disagree. Final HTML from the server is just that. Its final. The client displays it and its done. No XHR, no web sockets, no JS eval. It's done. You can immediately use the webpage and the webserver doesn't care who you are anymore. With SPA, this is the best case. You maybe even start with SSR from the server and try to incrementally move from there. Regardless, the added complexity of SSR->SPA and other various hybrid schemes can quickly eat into your technical bullshit budget and before you know it that ancient forms app feels like lightning compared to the mess you proposed.

Reaching for SPA because you think this will make the site "faster" is pretty hilarious to me. I've never once seen a non-trivial (i.e. requires server-side state throughout) SPA that felt better to me than SSR.
I’m deeply sorry. Cancer is a horrible disease.

Wow... currently in Amsterdam, was just at the Van Gogh Museum a few hours ago. The article seems to be focusing on their own facial features being applied to other subjects in their works, and by doing so giving their own visage some sort of immortality.

Of course impressionistic art is going to filter reality by the internal state of the painter. That's sorta what it is by its very definition.
People aren't grasping that uncontrolled compute already exists in the form of 20 year old computer viruses. They aren't benefiting anyone anymore, but they're still following their initial protocol, infecting other machines, causing harm for no reason, and we can't just "unplug them."
Ah! In this case, you might be happy to discover that ExifTool just added an "image content" hash--it's the SHA (or MD5 or whatever) hash of the _actual image bytes_, after ignoring the metadata header (and possible footer) payloads.

So if you, say, change the rotation of your RAW image file (which normally will just add or change the EXIF `Orientation` tag), the image content hash will stay the same.

See https://exiftool.org/ExifTool.html#ImageHashType

(of course, your current approach should prove substantively faster, but will only work with the formats that libraw supports)

I have never seen this phone in person. But for me (as iPhone user) this phone looks very appealing. The build of this phone looks like an iPhone. Obviously hate that this is similar to iPhone Pro Max size.

Just out of curiosity tried to compare to iPhone Pro Max:

- IP54 vs IP68 (iPhone) - so just limited dust and water splash

- 2412x1080 - 394ppi vs 2796x1290 460ppi (iPhone)

- 1,000,000:1 vs 2,000,000:1 (iPhone) contrast ratio

- 1-120Hz vs 1-120Hz

- 1000 nits outdoor, 1600 nits HDR vs 100 nits typical, 1600 nits HDR and 2000 peak outdoor

- $799 (512GB model) vs $1399 (512GB Model iPhone)

Maybe better compare it to iPhone 14 Plus,

- Nothing Phone (2) has better brightness, but less contrast, and less ppi, but up to 120Hz refresh rate.

- $799 (512GB model) vs $1199 (512GB Model iPhone)
It isn't stealing per se, but it is a violation of the agreement you made with the airline, and it is within their rights to terminate the rest of the contract and ban the customer.

Your second point is the more important one, and to my mind, the reason they call a lawyer. The kid hadn't done anything yet. The appropriate response from the gate agent should have been to remind the kid that not travelling to the booked destination was a violation of the terms of carriage and might result in additional fees.
As a customer, this would feel like a restaurant charging me extra for not finishing my meal. It'd especially funnel me to a competitor who doesn't do this, making their $X vs. $Y price comparison seem better due to no disclosed extra deposit.

I agree in that the lights on the back thing is not that useful.

I miss my Nokia 3220 not only because it was a solid phone and its customizable experience - but mainly because its side lights.

I think I've told this before in here, but those side lights were not only cool - they were useful. You could tell when it was ringing wheter it was a call or a message just by looking at the light pattern. It was really useful when you needed to put it in silent mode or you could not hear the ringtone nor "feel" the vibration. Sometimes at night at crowded and noisy places I even could tell who was calling because the lights were shining through the pants pockets! You could saw the colored lights wether your phone was face-up or face-down.

So additional to the audible ringtone, the on-screen message and the vibration thing, the side lights worked as another way to let you know if anything was happening. Not that almost invisible tiny LED light of nowaday's phones, nor like in this phone where the lights are at its back (?), but an array of shining lights at the sides of your phone.

Granted, the process to customize those light patterns was a bit obscure (programming a couple of MIDI extra tracks along a sequence) but I could somehow do a Metallica's Hit the lights ringtone with its light sequence.

It's been like 18 years yet I still wonder why nobody has done something like that ever since with a modern phone.
unnecessary comment of the day
Mostly because society (at least in the US) does not yet have the protections in place to stop corporations and government agency from abusing automated surveillance. Who has permission to perform mass facial recognition? What are the limits on privacy invasion by third parties or by the government? So far, in the US, the only significant limitations are social pressure against these practices.

That brings me to my second reason for wanting to opt out – even if this facial recognition policy is perfectly implemented, with wonderful privacy guards, it is still normalizing this kind of mass surveillance and data gathering in the mind of the public.

Twenty years ago, I believe most people would have been shocked and uncomfortable with the amount of tracking that occurs today. You also seem quite comfortable with it, and I think you're in the majority. My opting out is a tiny, insignificant vote that I don't think this should be normalized.
I thought the "Nothing" Phone was a terrible name, and "Nothing (2)" is somehow even worse.

Doesn't the airline ticket, per various FAA rules, constitute a requirement for the airline to get you home somehow? They have not, at the time they have suspicion but no evidence/proof/confession, confirmed any violation of TOS, and as far as I understand it, legally speaking, the kid has every right to say "fuck you, you're putting me on that airplane or a comparable one".

Maybe my memory is fuzzy here.
People keep spreading this fallacy. LineageOS cannot update the OEM device drivers because the OEM"s will never release the source for them.
Because revenue is pure income without taking costs into account.

So you could still be giving away money to cash out that is owed to someone else? If your revenue is based upon fictional income then these privatised public services will become tax payer problems because they can't be shut down.
While I haven't worked on phones, I have worked on tablets and e-readers. I can say that the discussions have always been around cost, ID, waterproofing, tablet thickness in the design stage. I don't think it's a stretch to say the same design considerations are at work in cell phones.

I've worked with the ID and battery teams (who also worked on phones). There was never even a hint of being pushed to non-replaceable batteries from "higher up" for "reasons". Instead, it was product specs / design parameters that drove the choice.
