The company is "lying" in the sense that their computer system has the wrong information caused by a human error. And you can certainly argue that this should have been special cased sooner rather than later. (On the other hand, like it or not, I assume that a lost piece of luggage is also written off as unfindable well before mountains are moved to try to find this item which is apparently out of the computer system's knowing. I've certainly experienced something similar with deliveries from time to time.)

Well, I saw in the news release that it said Wisconsin and "Pleasant Prairie", so I immediately thought about Foxconn. But with a little bit of investigation, I find that the Foxconn deal was in "Mount Pleasant". This location is at an existing facility (maybe they will expand it?) in an existing industrial park (looks like warehouses and light industrial) about 1 mile north of the Illinois/Wisconsin border.

There is a facility in this industrial park that has a rail spur to an existing rail line and the road into the park already has a connection to Interstate 94 about 1 mile away. The potential nearby workforce is large, the county has an active transportation system, etc.

If it works out as planned it is an excellent use of existing infrastructure.

PIC and AVR (along with 8051 and 6502 based designs) are still used in current consumer products reusing older designs. Yes, ARM Cortex-M0 can cost the same while offering 2x the processing processing power, but redesigning the PCB and rewriting the entire codebase for a new MCU would offset the processing power gains, which are not needed anyway.

Most white-label consumer goods just need to poll some keypad buttons, react to some interrupts, and turn a relay ON/OFF depending on a simple state machine reading an ADC, where an 8-/16-bit PIC/AVR is more than enough. If they have a built-in DSP even better.
I wish I could delete my comment to hide my stupidity. For some reason I was thinking about springs despite reading and typing solenoid. You are of course 100% correct and unfortunately it's too late for me to hide my shame.
The problem with Kakoune-like object-action order is that you need more modifier keys.
Lots of good answers, but the ultimate point is that you can lose work time, and that is an accepted part of the trade off. If I lose my Yubikey(s) my employer will pay me to wait until a replacement arrives because the security is worth that cost.
Exactly, when your business relies entirely on another business, you are taking a huge risk that the other businesses blocks you on a whim. There could be many reason such as randomly being flagged by some "spam" algorithms, or because add a feature that competes with your business, or they just don't like you.

That's true for anything that relies on Twitter, Facebook, Amazon, Google, Microsoft, PayPal, ...

You should always have a plan: what's the risk that X company terminates our account, what would the consequences be, and what do we do in that case.

This is way less safe than Rust.

NIFs have a major downside in that it can take down the entire BEAM if they misbehave.

And a huge reason why people use Erlang, is its resiliency from outages.

With Rust memory protection, it gives people more confidence in using NIFs for exactly that reason.

So, as someone who made a living for a time with piano sightreading skills… there’s already a near-endless supply of free sheet music to practice sightreading with. I guess you could use it as an input for some LLM and practice against its outputs… but just… why? Part of the benefit of practicing sightreading (in a non-paid context) is that you’re playing material that you might have to “sightread” for money (quoted here because yes, it may be the second or third time you’ve seen it… sightreading vs. memorizing a piece is a whole spectrum, but customers only really care if you can play things well). I guess, there could be a market for sightreading LLM-generated music (“write me Chopin lines but with Monk chord progressions”)… at a cocktail party… for an audience that was into that? This seems really unnatural and unlikely to me though.

While it is a lot of work, I tend to think that one can then always publish preprints if they can't wait for the replication. I don't understand why a published paper should count as an achievement (against tenure or funding) at all before the work is replicated. The current model just creates perverse incentives to encourage lying, P-hacking, and cherry-picking. This would at least work for fields like machine learning.

This is, of course, a naive proposal without too much thought into it. But I was wondering what I would have missed here.
It may not be. I would be willing to argue that there was a tipping point and we've long exceeded its boundary - progress and disruption now is just making finding an equilibrium in the future increasingly difficult.

So entering into a paradigm where we test the known space - especially presently - would 1) help reduce cruft; 2) abate undersirable forward progress; 3) train the next generation(s) of scientists to be more diligent and better custodians of the domain.
Yes. Though I’ve been paintballing once or twice, years ago; looks like the place I did it is an hour away (two buses, 10 minute walk) or 30 mins by car. Got to admit shooting never even crossed my mind, but there seem to be a few rifle ranges about an hour away. There seems to generally be a lot of this stuff in the outer suburbs.

My visits to the US have been fairly limited, and mostly to San Francisco, so I’m not sure how typical this is, but one thing that surprised me about San Francisco was that, while there’s a reasonably extensive public transport system in the actual city, it more or less stops dead once you leave. Here, it certainly fades out, but areas where suburban becomes rural are often fairly accessible.

Section 4 of the Jitsi Meet ToS grants them similar rights. It's just with mushier language.

> You give 8×8 (and those we work with) a worldwide license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, create derivative works..., communicate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display, and distribute such content solely for the limited purpose of operating and enabling the Service to work as intended for You and for no other purposes.

IANAL, but it seems like that would include training on your data as long as the model was used as part of their service.

Everyone who operates a video conferencing service will have some sort of clause like this in their ToS. Zoom is being more explicit, which is generally a good thing. If Jitsi wanted to be equally explicit, they could add something clarifying that this does not include training AI models.
This has improved leaps and bounds over the past year and a half.

I’ve been rocking FIDO2 with a Yubikey on macOS and iOS and it’s been solid. Support is there in web views. You can even use Yubikey-based PIV certificates now.

Not all of Microsoft’s apps have migrated to support this at the same pace. And anything still using ADAL over MSAL on iOS is going to probably ask for a different authentication path. Some of the older PowerShell modules don’t support FIDO2 or certificate authentication at all, but those are being rapidly deprecated.
I don't necessarily think it would mean more scientists, but it would mean more expense. You have a moderate number of low impact papers that people are doing for tenure today - papers for the purpose of cranking out papers. We are talking about redirecting efforts but increasing quality of what you have.
If everyone riding the NYC subway every day took a bus instead, it would need over 3x the bus capacity (2022 subway ridership was 1B, buses were 425M). Personally, I don’t think that’s going to make bus timeliness any better, even with more dedicated bus lanes. The answer is likely that we just need way fewer cars in the way even now. Have a look at 14th St. as an example.

I know plenty of people in pretty affluent (well, relative to the earth, absurdly affluent) areas who have kids, a car, and still schlep their kids around by bike / train / (rarely) bus. When I lived there I had an old honda scooter I'd use to get around. Where I live now there are enough myopic elderly people driving champagne toyota camrys playing bumper cars that I don't feel safe operating a 2 wheeled vehicle.

This is the "boston / oakland / summerville / cambridge" hipster zone. Some stick it out and some move to Marin or Andover.

[edit]

I should say -- I feel far safer putting my kid on a train than I would letting him carpool to school with other kids his age. Even with the very lethal street crossing. Kids are terrible drivers, especially if you put more than one of them in the car at the same time.
If JuliaCon last week is any indication, there might be more Lisp in space in the future! As long as the runtime size can be shrunk down a bit, but it sounds like that's in the works too.
A single solution won't suffice. That could have worked 50-70 years ago, not now.

Climate change, resource depletion, deforestation, loss of biodiversity, pollution, overpopulation, soil erosion, and overfishing are all symptoms of ecological overshoot.

Agriculture is a key culprit in 5-6 out of 8-9 of those symptoms, and animal ag accounts for 80% of all agriculture.

Nuclear will/should help with the climate change, but will do very little in other areas. And we should solve most of them, otherwise we're still ... in a bad place.

Any scheme that supports t-expressions https://srfi.schemers.org/srfi-110/srfi-110.html

But that has a lot of pushback, and no scheme I've researched supported (implemented the SRFI) t-expressions out of the box. Usually it's some third party library or runtime you have to use for that.

Have played around a bit with it in GNU Guile, but in some circumstances I myself got confused :)
So at the beginning of a Zoom meeting, we'll have to apply a Turning test to all the participants. That'll work at least for a few more years.
> If your recovery mechanism completely bypasses the benefits of using the YubiKey, that recovery mechanism is what your attackers will use.

I don't use any methods other than YubiKey when I do have my keys. So attackers cannot trick me. If I see a choice without Yubikeys I immediately know I'm being phished.
> This reminds me of the banks that offer TOTP with fallback to SMS - just turns the "security improvement" into a waste of time and effort.

Not really. TOTP is mostly there to protect against password leakage, be it through shoulder peeking or digital means.

The SMS fallback still protects against all of these. A shoulder peeker can't read your texts if your phone is on default security, as message contents are not displayed on a lock screen without some form of unlock.

The digital attacker will need to remotely clone your SIM or do a SS7 attack, both which are out of the realm for 99.9% of attackers. And if you are truly at risk for this, you are important enough for the bank to have setup additional measures.

You will now probably bring up auth attacks via fake websites, but a TOTP doesn't protect against these. Only passkeys and physical keys do, and by far most banks don't yet support either :)
IIRC, part of the language proposal to make errors wrappable in Go’s stdlib included a stack trace. And indeed github.com/pkg/errors includes that. But it never made it into the stdlib implementation
I hope they fix the bad Cloudflare configuration -- every non-local username and community is incorrectly displayed as "[email protected]" for me since they didn't turn off Cloudflare's idiotic email address obfuscation setting.
Uh, what?

1. There are pretty damned good reasons to use a single sign on (SSO) authentication across all company resources. Managing multiple accounts for every employee across every service is a prohibitively burdensome and messy affair, error-prone, inconsistent in policy enforcement and quality of security, features that would difficult to roll out on your own, the list goes on. SSO is an absolute must in any modern organization.

2. WebAuthn just a marketing scheme? It's a pretty big jump forward in authentication security, protocol, user experience, etc. It eliminates passwords, the cornerstone of authentication for as long as computers have even had authentication, and the #1 cause for security breaches by far. It does away with the need for 2FA. It allows users to use a range of devices to easily authenticate themselves without the need to juggle credentials for every account they have. It uses public/private key cryptography, a robust standard for security for years, uniquely for each site, attested to prevent fake hosts from registering keys, and all automatically managed behind the scenes so nobody has to go through the painful song and dance of creating and managing their own keys anymore. And it does all of this with a universal and open protocol that is currently already baked into most browsers. Seems like a pretty big deal to me, and certainly a big enough deal for huge companies and services like Google, Github, Microsoft, etc. to have prioritized its development and rollout.

Definitely something that needs large charitable investment, but charities like that do exist, eg Wellcome Trust
Newer openssh clients and servers can use FIDO2-augmented private keys (these are the key types like ed25519-sk). Basically you have a normal keypair stored on the client device, plus the server requires a passing a FIDO2 challenge against the yubikey.
I miss the good old days when "if you are not paying for the product, you are the product" meant I need to watch some ads on a free website.

> Tons of bag messes come from tags getting put on the wrong bag.

How could that possibly happen? Usually the check-in agent would print your boarding pass, then the bag tag, and then they'd peel part of the tag and stick it to your boarding pass. The rest of the tag goes on the bag itself, on the sides and around the handle.

At least looking at how they do it, this exact kind of mess-up feels nearly impossible. But idk, maybe US airports do these things differently.

If scientists are going to complain that's its too hard or too expensive to replicate their studies, then that just shows their work is BS.
Indeed. Bittersweet consequences, I’ve always thought, since it implies we wasted centuries recording empirical data that didn’t add up, while pure logical coherence was pointing straight at quantization and a universal speed limit.

Modern philosophers are (obviously?) most interested in how this historical fact should affect our handling of, say, our current best model for QG. That’s a fascinating thing for lay people to ponder, which is one reason I wish the context weren’t so opaque to HN.

(I should caveat that I’m less familiar with the “history of philosophy of science” side of this— there may be a live debate as to whether this would obtain with the logic Newton himself had access to, for example.)
I'm going to have to give this one a huge thumbs down. Injecting ads into a free and open source webapp that previously did not have any just to get people to buy your ad free version is the kind of thing Lemmy is trying to get away from. This is quite unacceptable in my opinion. If the developer removes the ad-ridden version and only makes a single purchase paid version then it would be acceptable as you would be buying the software rather than paying them to escape the ads that they themselves added.

As it stands the developer of Sync is basically profiting off of the free content of others by injecting ads next to all of their posts and comments.

To be fair, there are more differences; where Clojure requires parentheses, non-Lisps often don't need them at all.

E.g. in Python indentation carries meaning. Ruby has "do/end"; but also it's possible to skip parentheses in some function calls; there are pipes too. Haskell - whatever haskell does, sometimes also pipes. There are more examples.

That being said, for me clojure parentheses were always more of a help than an inconvenience.
