Sure, and most large corporations with worldwide influence do it automatically.

The last action one of my previous employers took was to send me payments for a patent I'm named on when they filed it in the EU. I had already quit, but it was easier to just send me the check than to cancel it :-)

It’s win-win based on current usage. Even if OpenAI got shut down, I still benefited from using it.

After doing the vanlife thing for a few years and rewiring the auxiliary battery system in my rig a couple of times I decided to scratch an itch and created a PCB with Wago connectors to greatly simplify the process and eliminate as many crimped ring connections as possible. Nearly everything for a small 12V auxiliary system plugs directly in on the PCB: DC-DC charger, start battery, aux battery and all accessories.

Now that I've scratched the itch I've found that there's a bit of a market for a product like this so I have started a side business to start selling them:

Feedback so far has been enormously positive. They're not a great fit if you have a ton of equipment or high-current devices but for smaller setups in vans, 4wd vehicles, off-road trailers, etc it really simplifies the installation process.
I read that. You didn't answer the question.
Here is one answer:

> How Altman plans to pay for Worldcoin’s UBI, however, remains murky. “The hope is that as people want to buy this token, because they believe this is the future, there will be inflows into this economy. New token-buyers is how it gets paid for, effectively,” Altman told Coindesk recently.
Decoding HAVE QUICK doesn't help you when the transmissions are still encrypted though.
Altman is not the ceo of worldcoin…
Am I the only person who thinks that this sort of telemetry is a good thing? It helps the user if telemetry provides reports of bugs and performance issues that help improve the product. It is a benefit to me that if a program keeps crashing, the responsible team will see this and be motivated to fix the bug. (I also like the thought that teams that write bad code will get embarrassed in meetings by bad telemetry numbers.) Obviously telemetry can be used for evil, which is bad.

ITU-R UHDTV Standard, the mainstream 4K TV standard, use Rec 2020.

In theory you can use any color primaries with any video resolution in computer (NOT on TV as those normally only support mainstream standard) as long as the the color space metadata is properly set, but in practise, some softwares ignore the metadata or the metadata got lost in the video processing chain. So in general, 4K video use Rec 2020, HD/FHD use Rec 709, and SD use Rec 601, for maximum compatibility.
Something people often overlook when comparing power usage of PC components, is that you often have to multiply the watt difference by 3x (or 4x) when you factor in cooling (air conditioning I mean, in regards to how to dissipate that heat generation, in your home).

I.e. PC-A might consume 100 watts more than PC-B, but the real efficiency when it comes to you our monthly electric bill is more like 300 to 500 W (in my experience, in a hot area of the country). Those 100 W of heat have to be removed from your home environment to keep whatever Ambient temperature you find comfortable.

Edit-it of course, works in the opposite direction in terms of your heating bill in the cold months of the year (but without the 3X multiplier)
I keep looking into statistical methods to help me with this. on the theory that for the most part log traffic is normal so I could have a dashboard item on how statistically anomalous my logs are. so I start by reading up on how email spam engines work, get hung up on locality aware hashing and then give up for a couple months.

I created what I think is a novel painting technique that I have now made significant iterative improvement on over the last 4 or so years. I now have a large portfolio of medium-large scale paintings using this technique.

https://www.instagram.com/kemendoart/

The technique is a variation of a "fresco" which is applying watercolor to fresh plaster. This is a very old method that tends to survive long periods because it is making a material/mineral change in the composite medium in a way that embeds pigments into plaster - making it durable to degradation in ways that other methods aren't.

I take this further by blending the pigment into water and then adding lime plaster so that the plaster itself is pigmented, and then you work with the pigmented plaster much like you would work with oil on canvas. I make my own wooden frame "canvases" by hand and have had to deal with warping and cracking.

The challenges are numerous and there's nobody to follow or ask for help or advice because as far as I'm aware nobody has developed a practice for this. In many cases I've had to make my own pigment (For example I ground up Kingsford Charcoal for black pigment on "Untitled 7" which gave it more of a concrete texture)

The biggest challenge however is with pigments - not only are they hard to make and expensive to buy - but when mixing with lime plaster they get IMMEDIATELY washed out so that bright and bold colors are extremely hard to make.

I am currently working on my latest piece and this thread made me upload my latest progress to show: https://www.instagram.com/p/CvptIU1urzD/

In order to get the depth of pigment I want I am experimenting with soaking my unset plaster with tons of pigmented water. So far it's working!

My next set of experiments is to figure out a new frame material that will not decompose faster than the plaster. My fear is that in a 100 years the wood will have degraded and that will cause the whole thing to fall apart, so I need to figure out how to get the plaster to adhere to stone somehow.

AdGuard works in Safari, and can block ads on youtube. I’ve been using this setup for years now and it’s been without problems. The experience is obviously not as good as the app, but it does what it’s supposed to, and I think the worse UX a plus because I do not spend as much time on the platform.
As a frequent writer, I think most of the burden lies upon the writer because they are the one choosing to put things in front of an audience. Yes, I think readers also have an obligation to not be, say, willfully obtuse. But if they're approaching something I say in good faith and have a bad reaction that I didn't intend, I think that's mostly my problem. My good intent may explain how I got there, but I'm still going to try to change how I write so that I have the effect I am seeking.

So yes, when somebody pops up to basically say, "how dare anybody consider the feelings of women", I do have to wonder at their motivation. Do they also pen strident defenses of writers any time something is misunderstood? Or is there a more particular pattern to their vigorous reactions?
But to answer your reply further, yes colocating already existed in the northern Virginia area because of Arpanet, the internet exchange, and AOL all being in the area pre 2000’s.

DuPont had been building in Datacenter Alley for a number of years already, but the buildings were way smaller; and the systems less complex. ACC1, 2 and 3 are all still there in operation today and have been retrofitted a number of times since 2000. Today, those tiny DC’s are apart of the bigger network in the area; and are just connected together via private fiber loops.

I had the gas heater checked by a professional who agreed to do the yearly maintenance.

The electrical wiring you shouldn't do if you're not serious about electrical safety, and not reverent to the industry standards. I read the Dutch standards for electrical wiring, but it's actually hard to do it wrong if you have a small house and no complications like solar panels because building stores don't even sell wrong materials.

I agree with the other person, the plumbing was definitely more error prone. Who knew that PVC glue has a (very) limited shelf life after opening?
Always amusing to me when people like you say things like that. Treat the trauma like it’s nothing. I’d love to see you get forced into a traumatic situation by the government and keep that same attitude.

Just an utter lack of empathy. People like you should have no say in how a society is run.

Having signs on the side showing complex information (how is that metric defined, exactly?) unrelated to the task at hand (driving safely) won’t help much.

Showing relevant information with a clear impact on the driver has proven to work effectively: have color-coded feedback telling you that your insurance premium just went up when you drive too fast, erratically, too close to the car in front don’t look ahead, or turn without checking behind the mirrors and behind you.

HURD (the parts that aren't the rest of the GNU OS) is mainly a set of servers for Mach. These are closely coupled to how mach handles IPC, how it handles virtual memory, etc. Apparently, there were also shortcomings in L4 itself, or at least with respect to what HURD wants to do with its microkernel: https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/history/port_to_another_mi...

I still get a bit impressed with myself when I build a new Cigar Box guitar. Build something that can actually make music, using nothing but, usually, spare parts and almost completely out of wood is pretty cool.

One of my neighbors recently had their move away to college and him and his wife were finally throwing out some of his old things. There was enough things to make them a nice three string using bits of an old desk and a metal arts and craft box.

Gave them them the completed guitar around Thanksgiving and they ended up giving it to their son, who had started playing guitar while at away at school, for a Christmas gift.

I like to think he'll continue to own, and use, those small bits of his childhood as he moves further into adulthood.
Heh, not a particulary in-depth article in any way, to be honest.

"the GNU/Hurd is Unix(POSIX)-compatible, so most things work"... well that's to be said for MacOS, QNX, etc. In practice, where is the "65% of the Debian archive can be built for the Hurd" figure coming from? I'm sure it can be built in theory, how much does it require source modifications?

Yep, owned i5 3470 for several years, and it was very fast for me. Bought 12500 only because I needed AVX512 (and it is the best AVX512 around, with FP16).

The servers are run in isolated address spaces like processes, taking advantage of MMU protection for more of the low-level facilities.

Ask yourself why it's safer to use FUSE filesystems on Linux when mounting untrusted block devices/image files than the in-kernel filesystem drivers and maybe it'll become clear why this is advantageous.

Or if you're familiar with containers and why that's a good thing, you can think of it as containerizing the kernel's subsystems/drivers.
I took a look at RSA and 1) it's not technically UBI but a conditional welfare program (UBI is allocated to all adults, even wealthy ones) and 2) it's exceptionally low - just $514 a month. That's 30% minimum wage and a bit less than half the poverty threshold.

I don't think UBI will really work if it doesn't even have support at the poverty line. Part of the point of UBI is a segment of the population which can't find work due to obsolete skills can at least spend the energy to retrain, or perhaps pursue some endeavor that is difficult to monetize but provides some benefit to society. That's difficult to do when one is destitute. As well, it needs to be effective for large swaths of the population if we are indeed heading into a post-work society over the next 10-20 years.

Would it be too much to ask that the octave width of the keyboard be reduced to 6" or even 5.5" so that women and men with smaller hands could play with less discomfort, rather than being based on what someone in the 16th century preferred.
You can also further refine this.

- "What's the probability that a meteor hits an object of cultural significance?" -> vastly lower than the probability that the meteor hits something of non-cultural significance.

- "What's the probability that a meteor hits a given object of cultural significance?" -> Proportional to object size + age.

Maybe the sphinx isn't a bad candidate for the only object of cultural significance impacted by a meteor? Still seems unusually improbable however.

I'm not sure what you want me to conclude from this. Yes, "jizz" is indeed a vulgar slang in English. By a different etymology it is also the fictional name of a fictional musical genre that's similar to real jazz. By yet another etymology it is also the behavioral characteristics of a bird that enable a birdwatcher to identify it. It would be entirely correct to say "look at that jizz, that's definitely a golden-crested pygmy goose". Someone else listening in might be confused, but that's their problem.

Words have multiple meanings. To ignore this and require that everyone just uses those meanings that you personally are aware of is an unreasonable request.
You keep saying that, but no cites. Somehow I doubt the Clayton act specifies that bundles can include ad products, but not software licenses. Bundling is bundling, let a judge decide.

Get prepared to be blown away by Makepad [0]. I have no affiliation with them, but just watched their most recent conference presentation [1]. The slides were made with Makepad itself and included, embedded, a full-blown IDE, a synthesizer app, a Mandelbrot to zoom in endlessly, and more. All running at 120fps. The presentation is for the most part live-coding with this setup.

What they want to do is bring coders and designers closer together, and while some code is in Rust they developed a DSL for the GUI parts that is close to how Figma works. These GUI's can run anywhere.

And I couldn't help thinking "Why would people have complicated stacks to create Web 2.0 apps for the Google Web, when they have this?", in other words an opportunity to break out of the browser straitjacket.

Btw. WebAssembly/WebGL isn't the only way in which Makepad is available. And while running well in the browser for a time, there were issues to be solved here (addressed in the presentation). And tbh this isn't a real answer to your assertion. Greg Johnston, creator of Leptos, has made a video with performance comparisons [2].

Edit: Adding a link to the synthesizer app I just found [3].

It’s cost of living is also much higher than Texas no? To me this seems like a far more probable explanatory factor than laxity towards crime or lack of open carry laws
Proceeds to defend this by arguing that Windows already does it anyways then goes and mentions how Linux doesn't do it... but then your whole comment makes no sense, because there is a justifiable annoyance at being tracked on Linux as well even if you quit Windows through Intel drivers
There was a comment here claiming that doing your own wiring is illegal in the Netherlands, but it was (rightly) deleted. It is completely legal to do.

I do my own wiring too; it's not hard to do this safely in most of Europe.

Similar story in manufacturing automation, with a lot of automotive especially.

It's fun to drive around and see F150 doors and Subaru seats and Toyota mirrors and BMW center consoles and on and on that I assembled.

Or rather, that machines running code I wrote assembled a small part of. It's definitely a different feeling of satisfaction when a machine I was a critical part of for a few weeks years ago churns out value while I sleep versus something I made with my hands and hand tools which would take an identical amount of time to repeat.
This may or may not fit into the OP's intention but some of my favorite physical achievements are repairs that might be impressive for a random suburban dad :)

1. Two years ago our basement flooded a week after we bought the house. I ended up tearing out the now-saturated carpet and put in vinyl plank flooring. Mainly straight forward but requires planning and at some points tricky sawing. It's cool when people come in and un-prompted say "wow that's a great floor you have here"

2. Maybe 4 years ago, I completely disassembled and repaired a through-wall heating and cooling unit in our NYC apartment because it wasn't producing a lot of air. Previously, repairmen came out and said it was working as normal and just wasn't meant to produce more air. This taught me a lot about electronics, HVAC, testing, and shopping at vendor-supply stores. People are shocked that a civilian was able to do this repair.

EDIT: I'll add one more:

3. Replacing the screen on my Pixel 6 Pro. It fell out of my pocket while biking, and although it wouldn't have been the end of the world to just get a replacement, I thought it would be fun to try and repair. I normally stayed away from stuff like that because I didn't want to deal with removing/applying adhesives but it was really not a big dea.
Appreciate the feedback and for trying it out!

You are spot on that GitStart works really well for teams that have a culture or a strong intention of doing that
It’s far from what I do now, but as an undergrad I built an automatic guitar tuner. It had a PIC32 microcontroller that read the sound waves on GPIO pins and did some cross-correlations to figure out the frequency (sort of a poor man’s FFT, but faster since it was less general). It used an FPGA to drive a stepper motor to turn the guitar pins towards the correct frequency. Code was all C and Verilog.
I really like the idea of a web based desktop, but I would like to see innovation in the user interfaces of computers.

One idea I am playing with is the idea of "thunking" behaviours on a graphical user interface by chaining together operations, like a typed runqueue. You can interact immediately with what is on the screen but you are presented with options as if the operation was successful and then you can queue up the next thing based on the result of doing that.

EDIT: The idea is that we decouple updates of the GUI with execution and the types of the return values of previous operation. In other words, the types of every operation are known by the system in advance, so you know what data is available at any given point in time.

Urban legend (and an article in the Austin American-Statesman) says that the nearby army base in Killeen would train helicopter pilots by using the known (to them) grow houses in the Austin area because they were easily visible in their IR cameras.
