> SO is not a support forum, it's not your teacher

This, to me, is the mistake that SO made. Developers helping developers is the engine that runs the site, that's why people come.

The body of interesting knowledge is an emergent property of the support forum/peer-to-peer teacher.

Eventually they tried to put the cart before the horse and traffic has dropped.

It's OK that you're done answering "how do I change font color with jQuery" for the thousandth time and are only interested in the occasional very interesting question, because there are people behind you who do want to answer that question. That will help them grow to get where you are.

If we don't allow new generations of users to go through that process we went through, then StackOverflow has an expiration date.
It’s unclear who’s brainwashed here or who’s using critical thinking skills.

Not all vaccines work. It’s ok and prudent to require efficacy trials and release of information about those trials before making a call on whether a person wants to subject their body to it.

Not all comments that you find bigoted are thought to be bigoted by everyone. Who makes that judgement?

And not all people deserve a good life like murderers and rapists.
I checked the docs, but couldn’t find anything about mqtt compat?
The primary moving of the goalposts here is by this online neoreactionary movement based around reminiscing on an idyllic vision of simpler times when everyone walked uphill to school both ways and people "knew their place". Everyone else is basically content not dwelling too much on things like the heritability of intelligence, regardless of whether they're technically true in the statistical sense, because of the generally horrible outcomes from doing so.
Great, depending on what you want. Native-ish Chrome, thoroughly degoogled, independent end to end encrypted sync, some nice extra features. Strong privacy features.

If you want tons and tons of customization, it won't be your thing. Would recommend Vivaldi.
And Vicuna-33B is not far behind - which you can actually run on a 24GB 3090/4090 GPU unlike LLaMAv2-70B. Although for a lot of tasks, Guanaco outperforms Vicuna.

Not my experience. Let me add that at first, I thought the materials and build of my first Tesla felt "cheap" and "plasticky." Over time, however, I've been pleasantly surprised at how well they've held up.

My oldest Tesla is now three years old, and it still looks and feels new. I could never say that about the BMWs, MBs, and Porsches I've owned over the years.
>The fact that they threw that away is a little silly.

You state this as a fact, but it's completely incorrect. It has been an option since at least 2018 to change the indicator to percentage.
Ugh, ok, yeah, I have no interest in that either.
$7 to $10k for a bottle is a lot of money, and anything more expensive than that is even more expensive than "a lot of money". However, this isn't 7-10k for a bottle of rum. It's 7-10k for a piece of history. As an antique, 7-10k not strange in any way, but as a bottle of rum, put in the same category as a bottle of wine, it'd be absolute nonsense.
> I would have thought "actual conservatism" is more concerned about size of the government or balanced budgets than about peoples' skin color or their genitalia, but apparently that's a mistake I keep making.

Yes, it's a pretty ignorant mistake to understand "actual conservatism" solely as fiscal conservatism. I mean, it's only one of the axes on those dumb 2-dimensional political charts that get passed around all the time. Social conservatism exists, and it's the difference between libertarians and the people who are usually called conservative.
it's not even on scihub, sad!
I have seen also another similar project that some people also recommended in case you interested in the future (looks less sleek but still not bad):

While not as old or perhaps storied, I can recommend the rum from St. Nicholas Abbey as a more affordable alternative, at probably a few hundred dollars for their most rare bottles - which they will engrave for you when you buy one. Barbados also had some exceptional cigars from the Royal Barbados factory in Bridgetown as well.

So nice having a positive news story for once.
I asked a similar question and got the answer that we could technically put a ton of solar panels in the Sahara and use this new material to transmit that power to anywhere in the world (without losing any power). Currently you couldn't do that since transmission lines lose power over distance.
No, their deadly allergy to peanuts ;)
If those vehicles are connected to the internet and there is a path of control from the internet to control surfaces, yes.
The text said it doesn't but honestly when readiing the bill, age verification is the most likely outcome for websites having to create a database of users to store their IDs/drivers licenses on their servers.
I'm assuming you have to inspect the signal to confirm the opening frame of data. Mainly to guard against clock drift.

But, I'm also assuming that the person that talked of waking and sending data was not doing so as often as you would in this scheme. Which is the thrust of my assertion.

Granted, I'd assume waking every 25ish seconds is probably fine? My gut was more that the person seeing bad battery life on receiving data was polling in the sub second timeframe. But was waking to send data in the seconds time timeframe. If both are done in the 25ish seconds timeframe, I'd have expected them to both take roughly the same power. Transmitting more if you are having to send distances?
More like damage control and most companies do this to prevent people from seeing too much contradicting information. Like walking into reddit for a new video game where everyone complains about a small design choice of the game itself. Tesla on their page tells you the range, you can go into google maps and search travel distance and figure out if a tesla fits your needs.

Complaints on lack of research into a product skew product interest. A company's job is to create an image and maintain it.
Anyone with a half a brain has known this a for a while now, it's not 2017 anymore. It's an embarrassing industry to be associated with.
The ignorance so stale. Learn more about Crypto. Learn more about BAT, and its integration into Brave. Your argument is so 2018. We're in 2023 now. Update your knowledge.

Sure it's a right. But you won't see me walking down our main street with my AK47 on my back because we know the outcome, and that's my point. No one is arguing what the rights are, my context is they are pushing the boundaries to assert their rights and change how the police interact with people.
Nothing, I just like Orion.
Mostly great, there is a lack of native Rust frontend tooling outside of Leptos/Dioxus for templated websites, such as static file handling and bundling. Previously, I used vite for this on a templated nodejs website.

But I am working on a simple web bundler crate similar to vite to alleviate that (check out the htmx discord!). It's missing the HMR part for assets that can be hot reloaded (it just refreshes your browser), but this will improve things quite a bit for anyone making templated SSR Rust sites.

Otherwise, the backend ecosystem is really fantastic in Rust, not much to complain about. Axum is great, and I'm using cornucopia for SQL. Having the type safety is a killer feature.

Ok well let's do that then instead scream about the crazy stuff many sibling comments are advocating. All this rearranging the deck chair on the titanic stuff is just transparently political.
> If SpamBot2000 shows up and starts flooding groups, one command is all it takes to wipe out the spam. Where it gets trickier is if someone releases an NNTP client that has legit users but which can be turned into a spambot, like via scripting features. At that point users would have to make the call themselves, or the client devs would need to find a way to limit how much damage a scripted client can do

At which it comes back to not allowing anything but the most locked-down clients, and disempowering users... and still failing, bcecause all clients can be turned into spam bots with the most trivial application of autohotkey et al.

Unfortunately, this is not even close to correct. Resistive losses in wires are not the only cause of wasted energy, and in most battery-powered devices they aren't very important at all. How is a superconductor supposed to help with e.g. switching losses in a buck converter, or reduce the amount of energy stored in a transistor's gate capacitance?
"You won't be attacked"

It's incredibly ignorant to make out like someone visiting a police station will magically be fine, because the police are the "good guy with a gun" in your scenario.

As for going into the station, it doesn't matter whether GP is "principled" or not, (a) they're allowed to carry, and (b) a car is not a holster.

If GP had been concealed-carrying you wouldn't have had any argument, you're trying to criticize open-carry as if there are only certain situations where it's acceptable.

If GP is legal to open-carry, they can do so wherever they like, providing particular legislation or bylaws don't prevent it.

Not sure why you're deepthroating the boot, but happening to be (legally) armed while making a regular request, is not a reason to be treated suspiciously by police.

As a long time user of VMs for this purpose, this is definitely missing the point. Containers are sort of a technology, or perhaps some combination of technologies, but the actual value of containers for development has nothing to do with cgroups, seccomp, etc. In fact, using firecracker/ignite/whatever would probably be just as effective as using Docker or Podman.

It really does come down to the concepts that underlie OCI images and Dockerfiles. Why?

- Immutable root design promotes hygienic containers that keep state only in mounts. This makes upgrading, backup, etc. of containers very easy. Containerized software can be written around the assumption that this is how things work, by having a way to e.g. run database migrations at startup.

- Composable images: Rather than having every environment ever made try to perfect making a reproducible Go development setup, you can just use FROM statements to use other images. With multi-stage builds you can even compose multiple images together to an extent.

- Single-process design: Prior to containers, most VMs operated like full machines that could standalone, with just emulated or paravirtual hardware. Containers are designed around running a single process. In practice, this dramatically lowers the complexity of containers and their lifecycle. Of course, you Can and sometimes even will need to have multiple processes in containers sometimes, but the general mantra holds well.

- Composable containers: Because of the previous point, it's natural to compose containers too, using features like Podman or Kubernetes pods, or Docker Compose. Containers in the same pod can share resources that would otherwise be isolated across typical containers, such as a network namespace. This makes for concepts like sidecars that allow composable functionality, and the ability to e.g. re-use PostgreSQL and Redis containers.

- As a bonus, these approaches avoid plenty of typical pitfalls of configuration management systems often used with e.g. Vagrant such as Ansible. Because the environment is built up from scratch to your specifications, rather than working backwards from a mutable Linux system and trying to bring it to match a certain specification. Some of the problems that can lead to configuration drift still exist, but they are somewhat contained, especially if you use tags and/or image digests to pin your images.

Virtual machines are technically fine, but containers elegantly offer solutions for both development and production deployment issues that VM setups never really did prior.

Indeed, you could make something like testcontainers but for VMs... but then what do you use in place of OCI images and Dockerfiles for the base images? And you need to handle networking between VMs and the host, probably across multiple different VM runtimes. Eventually you realize you're just making worse containers!
Hybrids will commonly have them so they can run climate control independent of the engine (at least until the HV battery gets too low) and also bring coolant temp up faster. It seems like they are usually called the PTC heater or supplemental heater.

Ford also seems to offer them as an option (e.g. as part of the cold weather package)for a number of their straight ICE vehicles like the Bronco sport, Escape, or F-150.
One of the things I've noticed with Long Island Audit is that he treats people quite respectfully -- until they start talking disrespectfully to him. At that point, he does veer into name-calling ("tyrants" is a frequent insult) but that's about as disrespectful as he gets.

But having watched his videos for more than a year, I can understand his frustration. Public servants routinely mistreat him. They bark orders at him that they have no authority to demand, they treat him as hostile for not immediately deferring to them, and at times they even physically lash out at him. After having that happen repeatedly, I'm sure he's fed up with it, and so I can overlook some verbal expressions of frustration.

I feel like on the contrary there's an enormous cost attached to using prefab components that only kinda do what you need them to do. Shops that have embrace this philosophy have been some of the most inefficient ones I've ever encountered. Screens of yaml code was written to implement tasks that could have been performed with lines of programming code; and many man-years were spent implementing functions that copied fields from one object to another nearly but not quite identical object.

It's a big driver of both complex and slow software. Often the adaptation layer necessary to get it to actually satisfy your needs rivals the size and complexity of the piece of existing solution code you're trying to leverage.

Software that is built from the ground-up to your exact needs is often both faster and slimmer and more maintainable and suffers from far less dependency churn.

The majority of this water is just for cooling, right? If the only thing entering or leaving the water is heat, why can’t the pipes just be arranged so it’s all “supply” pipes just passing through the datacenter, with the contents never being “used” at all?

Very interesting. Thank you for benchmarks. Thank you for sharing. In a zero-replication no-leader-election (or all-in-one-node) scenario what is min latency observed? It appears predominant delay is in ACKing to ensure durability, right?

C++ and Java client examples are very simple which is cool.

Would appreciate if there is hook to enable `SO_TIMESTAMPNS` on socket and retrieve `cmsg` to get accurate timestamping and permit client code benchmarking.
> I'm afraid not, the magnetic field might be a bit too strong.

I was always curious about that. The ability to hold extreme electrical currents means superconductors also produce extreme magnetic fields, which I presume will happily induce induction currents in whatever conductive material is nearby. If that material is non-superconductive, than it will start sapping the electromagnetic energy from said superconductor as the eddy currents get resisted, getting hot in the process.

What I guess I'm saying is that I'm not sure how you're supposed to build a superconductive grid or motor without also turning everything around it into an induction stove when you turn it on.
This really nicely echoes a response to Eliezer Yudkowsky that I saw: if you always just play the odds on stuff like this, you're gonna be wrong about the real breakthroughs, which by definition defy the odds.

There are plenty of reasons to be skeptical, but I remain hopeful. All the theoretical critiques are extra interesting if this is real and the data is basically accurate.
Do you have a link to those numbers?

I think Brexit causes a lot of problems for the economy as a whole but less so for tech startups. The author is right that the visa system doesn't make it difficult to hire for high paid tech jobs and people as well as tech companies still want to come here.

Where I disagree with him is that "most things in the UK work relatively well". The NHS for instance is a major disaster zone. I would say there is a general sense of decline in the UK, but tech startups are an exception to that.

This seems like one of the Elon fluff stories.

Twitter/X offers a new handle and some swag because they’re changing their name and now want the corresponding handle. They obviously own the namespace, and handles get swapped or banned and changed and whatnot all the time. It’s always been against the TOS to sell them, I think. The only complaint seems to be what, they didn’t offer money?

But it’s all dressed up in punchy language to get you to tut-tut Elon and click to make yourself angry and reinforce your beliefs.
The other comments are correct, but I'll add that (if there's actually SC going on) there's not even necessarily a current limitation. Only a current was reported in the paper, not a cross-sectional area, and the sample being used appears to have been a thin film, the thickness of which we have no idea.
> The website will just know the request is coming from something which has a valid ID available. The state will also not know which pages you browsed, only the domain of the request, just like with HTTPs your ISP does not know exactly the pages you browse but just the websites themselves.

Just the domain is still a pretty major information leak.

> And before someone talks about the state knowing your browser history: they already can by calling up your ISP, and they would get a lot more information than this mechanism would provide.

Yeah, but they have to ask. This creates a system that requires preemptively sending them that information.
Marketing is all well and good. Let's see the data of p99 latency and throughput numbers compared to rabbitmq, kafka, activemq, qpid, and hornetq.

Also, it's worth identifying and setting aside use-cases for broker-less messaging where 0mq, nanomsg, etc. could be more appropriate.

That really depends on how the MQ integration is designed and whether or not the in queue data is persistent or doesn't get stale. In most cases an application doesn't like stale data so a long lived queue is rare. People who adopt something typically PoC before adoption.
It wouldn't be anything special, anyways. Liquor ages in barrels. Once it's bottled, best case scenario it stays the same. The best you could hope for is learning "ah, so this is how Rum tasted 300 years ago"

Because it selectively merges only patches which don't affect privacy, security, questionable standards, and adds new features.

Honestly I don't know why you're even asking this. It's literally the whole thread is about this: it's not a reskin, it's a fork.

Is it "kind of weird" that it's at odds with Chrome's goals? No. Because if it wasn't at odds, it wouldn't exist, these people would be just Chrome/Chromium contributors.

Chromium is open-source because they forked WebKit, and WebKit forked KHTML. Google were at odds with Apple when they forked WebKit to Blink, but the FOSS license allowed it. And lo and behold it has allowed it again. What's surprising here?
My general experience (not that topic) is that for anything even slightly approaching the sides of the Silicon Valley Overton Window, ChatGPT creates micro-essay saying "On the one hand, $foo, on the other hand, $bar. It's important to remember that $topic is controversial, and that many people disagree."
It is, isn't it? I'm waiting for an AI tool that translates the text that I enter into the text field into a de-personalized text with the same context. It has to be possible to identify indentifiers and change the text while maintaining the coherent argument/ thought of the text. Would have to be computated locally, before interacting with anything online. But I'm not aware such a tool exists as of now.

Needless to say, this takes something away from the communication. A sacrifice I might be willing to make. Idk yet
