This is stated as if the only way for someone to experience kids is to have their own.

I didn't need to have my own kids to appreciate the peace of not having them (although at some point I do still intend to have kids, just not soon). I just had to frequently babysit my niece and nephew.

Nowadays I visit them only for a few days every few weeks and even then it's blatantly obvious that kids would mean a sharp drop in my ability to have as many different projects and hobbies as I do right now, for at least 5-10 years. Makes me really appreicate my moments without kids, as much as I also appreciate being able to see my niece and nephew grow and develop into their own selves.

I'm not going to repeat the advantages of JEPG-XL - plenty of posts on that already.

For some bizarre reason, Mozilla chooses to back the other format - release Firefox can display AVIF right now - while leaving JPEG-XL stuck behind a flag in a Nightly.
There is a difference between academic learning and vocational training. The UK used to have higher education institutions called Polytechnics, I went to one. These taught degree courses qualifying you for working life. Architects, chemists, computer scientists...

I did a 4 year degree, the third year was spent working for an employer. At the end of the final year much of what I'd been taught formally was outdated or irrelevant to the workplace. Many of the useful skills came from practical projects and that third year.

Polys got phased out and renamed Universities, a valuable distinction was lost and no one was fooled.

I'm an economist -- I focus on incentives.

What I see of the one bad^H^H^H clueless apple is that their incentive with WEI aligns with a monopolist's goal to vertically and horizontally integrate.

Google has proven, time and again, that their "don't be evil" mantra is long out of sync with what a layperson would feel is evil. Hence, it makes sense to expect they will behave as any other company.

Perhaps one thinks WEI will make the web "better" with more targeted ads. This is in err, since adverts make a worse experience overall.
Eh - the world is never black and white, just shades of gray.

Canonical have done most of the work for LXD (including directly employing the main developer for years). Until now, they've been doing it under an umbrella project that was specifically not Ubuntu focused (to quote linuxcontainers.org: "The goal is to offer a distro and vendor neutral environment").

Now they've moved the project directly under Ubuntu, why?

The answer to me seems to be that they still going to do development, but they will no longer try to support anything but Ubuntu (and really, my guess is it will go the route of microk8s and become snap only/first, so more of a middle ground).

And I don't really blame them for that - they're doing the work, they can focus on themselves. But it does mean there is now a need for someone to do the work to become the packager for other distros. That development has to happen somewhere else now.

That may well be this repo, it might not.
> But if you want to make even a single tiny modification to one of the generated files, you're busted, you need a different solution.

Not totally true, if you can robustly express your tiny change as a `sed` or `awk` script, you can just append to the generator pipeline. Speaking from experience, do not condone, etc.
This is the crux of it, and lines up with what I was saying:

> Nowadays, except within specialized philosophical usages, the usage of the term ad hominem signifies a straight attack at the character and ethos of a person, in an attempt to refute their argument.
Why? As a supplier of an API to search engine "customers" their entire job would just be to service that demand and provide new query options.

The intra-engine competition, meanwhile, would drive up results quality. Search engines would rise and fall on their own merits rather than on the basis that theyve got access to the biggest index.
Actually Safari added support for three new image formats at the same time: JPEG XL, AVIF and HEIC.
Government should force google to give competitors access to its search index so that they have a real opportunity to build a competing service on top of it, AI or search. The same way monopoly telcos were forced to open infrastructure to competing service provides.

Google products are getting increasingly crappy. Would be great to see what others could build with their information monopoly.
I question the assumption that fine-tuning should always be avoided.

If a model is going to be used many times for a specific use case, it is far cheaper and uses far less energy to fine tune a small model once and run it on cheap low-power hardware than it is to continuously run a huge, do-everything model on expensive, high-power hardware. Enormous models are great for exploration and for general purpose applications like ChatGPT, but I think that we will find over the next few years that smaller, purpose-built models will continue to dominate in applications like geospatial analysis.

Simply using AWS doesn't do anything to help with this in that same long run.
Give it a decade or two and those same organizations will suddenly have multiple bureaucratic departments to approve new AWS resources and spending.

All AWS is offering is a channel that a bureaucratic process hasn't been developed for _yet_ and the organizations hivemind response is to allow its usage freely because it doesn't fit in the existing form template of rules

I can’t even tell if you’re being sarcastic, but exactly what you describe does exist [1]. They work OK, but they are a little heavy in the hand for fine placement. The vacuum is quite weak, nowhere near as powerful as a basic converted aquarium pump, and that really limits its utility for me. It would only work well if I had just the right tip, and just the right suction cup for larger components.

My aquarium pump setup only needs two tips, one for 0603 sized components, and a slightly larger tip with a small suction cup that handles everything from 0805 to 14x14mm large ICs (when picked on centre of gravity).

In the past, such forced breakups included restrictions on how the new entities could do for a period of time. As an example, AT&T was not allowed to use any of the Bell trademarks despite still owning them. In theory, the government could bar them from any contact whatsoever once the breakup is complete.

That said, AT&T/Bell was broken up in 1984. The "Baby Bells" had all merged back together into 3 different companies (AT&T, Verizon, Lumen) by 2000. So there would need to be better protections in any potential breakup of Google or any other company today
Most objects aren't designed to withstand impacts from heavy machinery (e.g. lorries) without endangering anyone and it's not normally considered. Shop windows can cause significant damage to people if a vehicle is driven into them, but it's not really anything to do with the ethics of window designers/manufacturers/installers.

If there was a large pointy protrusion that was designed to cause harm, then you would have a stronger point(!) that it was designed to be dangerous.

Merely having a height barrier before the very similar height barrier of the tunnel itself is hardly making anything more dangerous and I'd consider it less likely to cause harm to life as emergency responders can get better access to the people involved rather than possibly having to dig them out of a tunnel first.

Also, a height barrier is unlikely to cause major physical harm to the driver, so I think you've over-egged your position.
Latency. Cloudflare is selling speed. When you use their DNS, then lookup of their CDN domains is going to be faster, since you're querying the source directly rather than through intermediate DNS servers.
Understood.

In that case, if web development is your interest, then you have many possible paths.

The primary choices are full stack, backend, or frontend.

Obviously full stack is most flexible because you can theoretically do it all. But keeping up with so many technologies simultaneously is really tiring.

Take a look at Phoenix framework. It is a fantastic way to get started, and it will grow with you into just about any future project need. Plus Elixir is an excellent language built on top of the incredibly powerful Erlang ecosystem.

Lets say one has a debian server with 256 cores and 100 users. If an user wants to run fedora it makes it possible. Not just build and run once but keep running for 365days and in that fedora give 200 user accounts or 200 webservers. It is possible with lxd. I know some hosting companies use it. Mix and match. All these run as non root. You can do ram/cpu/bandwidth/io controls everywhere.
it's more like guidelines than a rule.
Canonical only having snap releases was harmful to adoption. I liked using lxd, but uninstalled snapd (forgetting lxd used it), and my vms obviously stopped. Snap wouldn't reinstall properly (various inscrutable errors), so I moved it all over to libvirt. I'd still be happily using lxd if it weren't for Canonical's snap-pushing. That's my anecdote of one.
oh hell yeah you're my kind of guy.

This is such a great example of the problem with Chrome dominance.

You've come to believe that Firefox is broken with respect to Chrome. When in reality you only know that websites work better in Chrome. But that's not because Chrome works better, it's because those web teams only test against Chrome, and when Chrome is broken, they break their own website to match, so it works in Chrome but not other browsers.

This is exactly the danger being highlighted in this thread. How long until the DMV site and Concur (and other sites) have little notes that say "Chrome required to use this website"? And then we're right back to the bad old IE days again.
Of course not, but you made a different point in the comment I was replying to:

I understand the frustration here (I maintain a project that was directly broken by strict version checking), but I also think that reducing the problem to "best guess at major, minor, patch" understates the problem here. For example, what do you do with version strings like these?

a.b.c
one.2.3
1.pre.2.3.4
2004d
1.0beta5prerelease
0.1-charmander
0.1-bulbasaur

Those last two are actual legacy Python versions[1] -- how should we compare between those two for the purposes of dependency resolution?

Whether or not it's preferable to attempt to parse unspecified inputs boils down to questions of predictability, reliability, and security and, IMO, security is an overriding factor when it comes to domains as critical as packaging.

That being said: you can attempt to parse legacy versions using this package[2].

No one said you had to ungoogle your life all at once. Take steps. Switch your browser to Fx or something else. Pick up a new email address with low fees with calendar & contact sync over CalDAV/CardDAV & keep both emails in use while slowly converting some over to the new address. Use LiberOffice or Etherpad on new documents. Use UnifiedPush on Android to handle notifications without send everything through Google. Install F-Droid & migrate to open alternatives. Eventually, you’d find Aurora store is just used for a handful of apps like your bank & everything else is in your browser or uses an open protocol so F-Droid apps work fine.
Despite not being privy to the details, I am familiar enough with this sort of marketing to be extremely confident that Google and McDonalds (and other big brands) did indeed negotiate specific terms including promotion of McDonalds locations beyond what is available to typical Google customers, rather than a McDonalds marketing manager just logging in and setting up some local campaigns.

You know they can do that right now, right? They aren't doing it. Will more do it because it is simpler now? Sure. Will it put "an end to the open web"? Nope. If they wanted to end it, they could have already achieved that. WEI is just simply another better option for the websites which sorely need it. Sure, some other sites will abuse it, but I think you already avoid them since you still think the "open web" is still a thing.

As an urban driver, cyclist and pedestrian, issues around this have been on my mind for a while. This is the best I've come up with (and mind you, some of my suggestions are brutal):

- Absolute speed isn't as important as relative speed; if the "speed limit" on a highway is 60 but everyone habitually goes 80, the one person insisting on obeying the speed limit is creating a dangerous situation

- Nothing but physical limitations will deter the types of offenders mentioned in the article. They'll repeatedly drive drunk, they'll drive with their licence and insurance revoked, they'll drive drunk again after serving a prison term.

- Focusing on speeding is ineffectual; there are many more ways in which drivers are dangerous - the main being distraction and aggression. Speeding is just a symptom.

- In the past few years, drivers seem to have become increasingly callous, selfish and borderline sociopathic. It's not a good trend for persons piloting lethal weapons. Drivers feel far, far too safe and act like they're above consequences.

So, solutions?

- Physical infrastructure -- nothing controls the flow of vehicles better than physical conditions

- Remove 80% of stop signs, replace with yield signs. People act more carefully when there's uncertainty

- Build more roundabouts, replacing intersections where traffic volume allows. Roundabouts reduce the number and severity of collisions and resulting injuries.

- At problematic light-controlled intersections, install physical barriers. Bollards that go up when the lights turn red, or equivalent sturdy, ruthless barriers that will turn a speeding red-light runner into soup and destroy their vehicle. There's no arguing with physics.

- Use primarily one-way streets in residential settings.

- Narrowing of lanes near intersections in residential neighbourhoods: a road can have two lanes of parking and two lanes of travel, but at an intersection it narrows to a choke point, forcing traffic to slow. The choke point is formed out of pedestrian islands, which create extra room for pedestrians and make them more visible

- Raised crosswalks: akin to a speed bump but longer and flat-topped, raise the road surface instead of lowering the sidewalk where pedestrians cross the roadway. Vulnerable road users are the priority, express that in concrete terms
