It certainly has a heritable component. When people say "the way you're born", do they mean something non-genetic? What would that be?
We have updated the language on our blog post to the more commonly accepted “open-source” terminology.

I’d encourage everyone who cares about OSS to participate and consider the changes happening in the broader technology sector. Sustainability is more important now than ever in the ecosystem, and we need to evolve our thinking and tolerance. We need to look deeply at the goals of open source and how we can continue to achieve them, and that isn’t going to be arguing about what once was.

Many of the Sentry folks who have chimed in here (including myself) are not here because they work for Sentry, but because they have contributed to open source for the better part of their careers, and many of us in very significant ways (certainly with software you’ve used). We care about improving and protecting the ecosystem. It does no one any good when this community is hostile towards the folks trying to help.
You can calculate it to go many speeds depending on what assumptions are made. Just because mick west shows something is possible doesn't prove what's in the video.
UDP doesn't provide reliable delivery, so you would need to implement some kind of delivery assurance in your application.

UDP also has very small message (datagram) size limits, so you would also need to implement some way to fragment and re-combine messages in your application.

At this point you've built an ad-hoc re-implementation of 80% of TCP.
If you are implying that in the recent era - we'll look at 2013 leading up to same-sex marriage being legalized - that there was rampant homophobia, the data does not support your claim.

According to the FBI, in 2013 there was 334 hate crimes committed against LGBTQIA+ people [1]. The US population back then was 315 million [2]. In 2013, according to Gallup, 3.6% of Americans identified as LGBTQIA+ in 2013 [3]. Which means the crime rate was 1 per 33,952 persons, or normalizing to per 100,000 as crime is usually reported is 2.94 per 100,000 which is on par or LOWER than any other category of heinous crime for that era. In fact, 2013 has one of the safest years on record [4].

Furthermore, public sentiment had already switched in favor of same-sex marriage before it was even legalized, according to Pew research [5].

That phrase is usually referring to some sort of judgement or characterization, not a particular action. If a teacher makes the whole class stay late because a few were acting up, that's not painting with the same brush. If you think that all children are disruptive because a few acted up, that is.
Humans don't need to chew their food at all. If there is enough moisture, you can swallow most foods whole in chunks. Chewing is part of the digestive process (especially for plant material) to increase the surface area of the food. Even carnivores with huge throats and few or no molars can be observed chewing certain foods.
Yep. And it's the exact same in France with Lycée admissions (the ones that send the most students to Grandes écoles as well as the children of the elite tend attend either Private or extremely selective Lycées) and the UK with Independent Schools (eg. Eton, Harrow, Winchester).
Soul breaking is something of an understatement. It's something that must be experienced to be fully understood. The woman in your example could easily have gone even further: joining the couple in the room, inviting even more women over... Until one experiences this, it all seems surreal and completely outside the realm of reality.
I hate those graphs. You can manipulate the axes on any graph to make it look like the two variables closely match each other and increase at the same rate
Is your product useful?
Right? It was clearly written in a way to convince most people not to use it but it's a perfectly viable Windows installation for most people.

I mean there is some truth that it is missing stuff, I had to install some gaming libraries. But it just installed it when I missed it, it was easier than dealing with dependencies in some repo's I have worked with. And this was on a touch screen without a keyboard and mouse on my Steam Deck.

I am pretty sure anyone that has ever installed anything on Windows could figure out how it works.

Now the only catch is if certain things you install have to install enough things that you are suddenly back to a normal Windows installation (for example, it doesn't come with the Windows store but when I installed the Xbox app it relies on that). But that same catch exists for any debloat tool as well.
It depends on what you're doing. In C you're going to be hampered by, again, the ecosystem.

There is nothing comparable in C as performant as all of the streaming tooling built up around Kafka for example.

So your can benchmark percentages all you want, but there are a lot of things you just can't do in C that you can on the JVM (without 100 developers and three years)
I don't want several GCs, though.
I do consulting so I often go to customer's offices but I haven't seen one of my companies offices in about 6 years, I enjoy a little office time every now and then. That said, the "open office" and the hot desking is a nightmare, no wonder people want to work from home it's like working at the airport.

I'm going to add one more thing and that is that (at least in my 20's and early 30's) work was very social, lots of friendships were fostered over beers after work. I know statistically 1/3 of all people meet their mate at work so socially not going to work is really a bad thing -maybe that's why every 20 something is so lonely and hate their jobs so much, it's all work and it didn't used to be that way/
This says more about working for a company with a pointless mission.

It may be that engineering / production jobs are more likely at companies with clearly useful missions.

Sales & marketing get a bad rap, but if we want to move into the future, someone has to convince people to do so.

The problem is more that there are a lot of shitty/exploitative products that shouldn't exist and S&M folks are asked to sell shitty futures, and that feels bad unless you're a sociopath... which explains why Wall St / consulting are still so attractive to a certain set.

Stripping DRM off books is super easy. I have an archive of all the (audio)books I've purchased, because I still want access to things when a company decides they're no longer interested in the product.
I live in the south of Chile. There has been snow only one year within the last three. There is not a person alive who remembers a season without snow. Normally there should be about three meters where we live. This is as extreme as if there was no snow in Lake Tahoe.
Elixir syntax for Ruby developers: the fastest possible introduction
Establishing derivation is at the crux of all legal matters surrounding diffusion models. It has not yet been clearly established. If it is, then I'd agree with you. Until then, I think it's a bit more up in the air.

Also, IIRC, RIAA did not bring many resources to bear against e.g. "home taping" itself, because they could essentially never know that it had occured. The overwhelming majority of their efforts went into trying to takedown people distributing multiple copies.

The Kashtanova case does not cover derivation in any real way, but is really about copyright attribution choices between human and software.

The Warhol case specifically tests a fair use claim, not a derivation claim.
I think you misunderstood me. Peace of mind is in not having to worry about fraud being my responsibility to fight or dispute. I can call CC company or through mobile app, flag transaction, get my money back and never spend another minute on the issue.

The Environmental Benefits of Precision Agriculture Quantified
Population rate is declining, and in the next couple of decades many first world countries are expected to have a population collapse.

I understand what he’s saying the problem is, I think it’s just part of how complex processes such as companies and governments expand.

However, part of me leans in the efficient market side of, yes there are inefficiencies but once capital is justly expensive, then the wheat is separated from the chaff. If a company could do something more cheaply with equal quality, they will probably try that.

Though the larger a company gets, the easier it is to “hide” these busy-work jobs.

Further, we don’t know the outcome of UBI. We saw a glimpse of it during covid.

A very rough trial, but many people were getting more money via unemployment than by a minimum wage job.

Most these individuals sat around hedonically watching TV, smoking weed, or drinking. Surely part of the pandemic in general, but I think there’s a human-nature aspect of path-of-least-resistance.

I’m not convinced our society has the proper values to take UBI healthily, I think it will exacerbate the existing meaning crisis we’ve been in since religion has started to decline. We have young kids going to nihilism and mainstream outlets justifying this as a good thing. I think the last thing we need is to give people more time to ruminate on these ideas with a slosh fund.

In a perfect world we could have UBI, have a subset of the population be the productive earners that can make more money over the UBI, and those on UBI would use the time and money for creative enhancement of themselves and society.

But I think that’s too optimistic an outlook. We have foundational problems with many aspects of western civilization that need to be addressed before we add fuel to the fire.

"Clever" and "frontend" with Python honestly concerns me.

I realize TypeScript may be doing the same thing but that somehow tastes OK because it was purpose built for the task. (Although I abhor cleverness in general).

I'm right about the facts, you're misinformed about what is wrong about the paper.

They did 3 things in that paper. One of them they have called a coding error. Ok.

Two of the 3 were intentional. They intentionally omitted date ranges for some countries. And they weighted countries differently. This they admit to. And they defend.

Yet, nowhere in the manuscript does it say that in order to get these results you must apply weights to the data and you must leave out some inconvenient data points.

I can make up any argument for anything that I feel like if I start to apply weights to the data designed to make my argument work. They failed the most basic of scientific ethical standards.
Really? _Most_ diseases seams like a gross overstatement.

Skiff.com is lying about being open source
I get the impression they're hyper sensitive about the v-tuber persona, which is odd, because nothing seems to scream "look at me" more than adopting some very unusual virtual persona to publicly stream development for an open source project that a large number of people are interested in... So, they want attention, but don't want attention. They also seem to be engaging in the increasingly unproductive habit of putting "that made me sad" into the "that's [insert-favorite-prefix]-phobia!" bin.

Cautionary Tale: Stripe force-closed my 9 year account
After more than 9 years of using them for my SaaS business, Stripe has decided to close my account for the following reason:

"""Unfortunately, after conducting a further review of your account, we’ve confirmed that your business presents a higher level of risk than we can currently support, so we won’t be able to accept payments for XYZ LLC moving forward."""

This is after I've made drastic changes that help reduce chargebacks and asked for a review.

I've faded all posts and complaints here against Stripe thinking that people must be up to no good. And that it can't happen to me...
Companies tend to really overestimate how differentiated their product is. Often these "value add" features are half baked or so situational that they can't be relied upon. I take them with a grain of salt and still frequently I'm disappointed.

Have your worked with the JVM since Java 8?

Is memory util on servers still really a consideration in 2023 for most workloads if performance is otherwise good?

Isn't that the JVM's niche?
The US is 50 related but different regulatory regimes, not 1.

I don't know; since their whole reason for being is to act as (a temporary?) archive of websites that would make them more vulnerable to these attacks than someone like ebay I'd think?
It's the same old, tired rant about how Python's terrible.

The post is basically a surgeon complaining that a chef's knife is terrible for surgery; or how the F-16 can't loiter in the battlefield and deliver strafing fire; or how carbon fibre tubes don't handle compressive strength under water; or using C to do string manipulation and complex regex.

You're using the wrong tool for the job.
If you mean to give a source of melody of 30sec and extend that melody into a full song, yes MusicGen can do that. There are two ways to extend a song based on a melody: 1) give a sample, and continue the song from that sample as close as possible, and 2) give a melody as an inspiration.

They both work in varying degrees of success. Audiocraft on github, issues or discussion sections have a lot of questions answered.
Americans (yes both Canadians and people from the states) are shielded from the chaos that happens to process a single transaction. They only see the paltry rewards in the form of 1-2 (maybe 5) cents per dollar charged, which is translated into "points" (1 cent == 100 points is what I have seen with some "premium" cards) and makes it seem worthwhile.

What they don't see is: the 3-5% or more markup of goods across the board (doesn't matter if you pay cash or card, especially for big box stores), the number of charge backs and the costs of dealing with it, fraudulent charges, poor security (places still accept mag stripe in the states), innumerable numbers of middleman to process transactions (bank fees, issuing card fees, network fees, premium card fees, ...)

It's fucking chaos. I hate it.

With FedNow, I am hoping that will change. Eliminate all of these middleman that are siphoning funds from people across the board. Eliminate the parasites. Eliminate the waste.
Same down south. Our DA seems more concerned with protecting criminal rights than fighting crime.

Edit: Turns out the DA isn't pursuing more minor crimes, such as property crimes, reportedly due to a mass egress of prosecutors for more high-paying jobs. Nonetheless, a bad mix of realities.
The people above are arguing about being caught, not legality.
Half the people in this thread are saying they don't want drug deterrence. IMHO I'm with you though.
I don't see how these roles are useless.

Most people do not have a birds eye view that lets them see all the problem spaces and all the solutions. Marketing is increasing the likelihood you are aware there is a solution out there, and sales is the part where you become convinced the solution offered is the right one.

If you are in the lucky position where your company's solution is considered the standard and is widely known, marketing becomes all about maintaining that perception.
I mean, it's archive.is that is intentionally serving an incorrect DNS record (pointing back at Cloudflare's IPs) when it gets a DNS query that every other resolver handles just fine. They may have legitimate grievances with the info being dropped, but in the end they're the ones breaking their own traffic.
While there's a lot of truth to this, arguably the "done-ness" of a project has little to do with the project itself, but the intentions of the author.

I have a project on the brink of release. I'm tossing it over the wall, announcing it to the community it's directed toward and have no real intentions to move it forward. I am satisfied with it.

It's a "90/90" project. That last 90 pushing it that last mile of polish and such. It is still imperfect, and it will remain that way. I have grander designs and plans, and I'd rather have imperfect but serviceable distributed and released than have it "more perfect", but sitting on my hard drive. I also don't want to engage in any real back and forth with the community to fix what they may find imperfect. I'd rather put my time in my next effort.

If some real showstopper raises its head, I'll certainly address that. But I consider it "feature complete". Because what I certainly don't want, is a half done project, with any hopes raised or promises made only to have my attention off chasing some other shiny thing (which it is wont to do).

But a lot of the last 10% has been spent on "stuff I hate". I consider myself a framer and drywaller, leaving the mudding and finish carpentry to others. So, it's been a bit of a slog, but the summit is in sight, adding some wind to my sails to get it over the top and ship it out.
Have you used it since Java 8?

There's a reason the entire streaming ecosystem (Kafka/Flink/Spark/Etc.) has built up around the JVM.

It’s discussed in the paper under the heading “ASD microbiomes mirror behavior improvement after fecal matter transplant”

“To test this, we re-analyzed data from a 2-year, open-label fecal matter transplant (FMT) study with 18 children with ASD52. In this study, the children were subjected to a 2-week antibiotic treatment and a bowel cleanse, followed by 2 d of high-dose FMT treatment and 8 weeks of daily maintenance FMT doses. Based on one of the most common evaluation scales for ASD, the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), significant improvements were achieved after the 10-week course of treatment. Two months later, the initial gains were largely maintained, and a 2-year follow-up showed signs of further improvement in most of the patients. The results are consistent with a potential role of the microbiome in improving autism symptoms, but how the underlying changes in microbiome composition related to those seen in other studies remains unknown.”
That's not a thing. Americans universally pay for restaurant meals on cards.
You have healthcare and good insurance and presumably make a good amount of money working for a big tech company.

A checkup will not end up with thousands of dollars of bills, schedule a routine health-check, you can also call your insurance first to check what is covered.
I recall reading somewhere that the high-quality Onion videos of a decade-plus ago (I loved Today Now and Sex House) cost a lot of money but simply didn't make much money. Which I guess is obvious if a for-profit company stopped making them, but still, it is a shame quality wasn't rewarded.

My view is that nihilistic tendencies create the feeling of pointlessness in occupation.

A job is a means to an end.

These discussions regarding which jobs are pointless vs meaningful don't do anything to address that people lacking purpose are more likely to call their job pointless.
I actually don't have strong arguments in favour of what I wrote. My personal point is that it's a complex subject. And you should not deal absolute in such complex subjects.

Having two completely different point of view expressed almost exactly the same ways brings balance to the discussion and leaves the reader with the decision of who is "right" or "wrong". And hopefully will answer "neither". Which is the ultimate goal.
Actually a lot of strides have been made in cancer survivability rates from that funding - depending on type of cancer, many people can be essentially guaranteed survival these days when just decades ago e.g. prostate cancer was a death sentence.
Well, see, if you're expecting morality to happen when there's no legal muscle behind it to enforce it, you're not talking about the real human beings that we have in this country. And I'm not interested in that. I'm not interested in a "free speech" that works only with spherical, frictionless humans.

Of course what Musk is doing is immoral. It's also horribly flawed legally, and deserves to get thrown out on its ear. But unless you've got a way to make filing such lawsuits impossible (not just immoral), while still not blocking filing legitimate lawsuits, then you've got an ideal-world-only perspective on freedom of speech. That seems to me to be a waste of time.
I just can't get how bad Google is doing. They have a ton of top researchers, papers, money, just no good LLMs. It's like OpenAI was first to the punch, and everyone else just saw $$$. Meta was smart to go down this open source road, as the masses will start training their llamas one way or another.
Personally I believe the "intelligence" aspect will asymptote, so even having exclusive access to a "super AI" (i.e. hypothetical 1T parameter model like a GPT5) won't be that much of a step behind the lesser AIs, and as soon as you grant access to the masses they will start to use some transfer learning to make their "lesser" models better.
AI applications though still need a lot of work. The models are smart or general purpose enough to be useful to the average person out of the box.
True but the quality is quite high nowadays. No one is diluting it with dangerous shit.
Amazing how many people who are smart enough to engineer software fail to comprehend that these things are necessary for success. If you are starting a company or currently running a company, the adage of "if they build it they will come" is not true, and your finances will not miraculously manage themselves and once you reach a headcount of anything outside founders and a few direct reporting employees you will have to find some one to spend at least a portion of their bandwidth preparing/planning work and focusing peoples time and energy.

Obviously there are "bullshit" jobs, as people love to reference, in massive company's with thousands of employees and a billion dollars in assets - but... ok? Of course massive bureaucracies contain some level of redundancy and cruft but, even still a lot of that is actually by design from a planning perspective.
