Can't agree more. I don't care about a personal cubicle with a door. But I care how much time I spend in traffic on my way to and back from the office.
I’m wondering if he did and if he is going to be the prosecution star witness walking down the aisle the first day of the trial. It’s too weird that there is no mention I can find anywhere of a warrant for his arrest etc. They’ve gone after everyone else like Gary Wang and Nishad Singh and of course Caroline.
It strikes me that if you had to build a service platform, then that shows me there is a difference in the systems from a user perspective. I am a very technical user but I do NOT want to spend my time configuring network stuff, that's the whole reason I use tailscale. The fact that headscale is self hosted immediately creates barriers that tailscale does not have. I already host several web servers and it a huge pain that I want to do less of. (Everything is fine on digitalocean until some update does something weird and I have to spend a few days debugging it).
It's also naïve to assume that the work people do when supervised is always valuable and not optimizing for the appearance of work, rather than work itself.
The article does not say whether it obeys `User-agent: *`. My guess is that, if it doesn't respect that, it doesn't truly respect `User-agent: GPTBot` either.
Not going to lie spending some "quality time" with my wife during the middle of the work day has been pretty freaking awesome and a very hard perk to cap.
Thing is, I'm just as supervised at work, honestly (which is to say, not at all).

I still have 1:1s with my manager, am still accountable for my targets and organizational goals, and generally do the same thing whether I'm WFH or in office.

Office work has several advantages: 1) I like discussing in person with coworkers - sometimes coming up with fun/interesting ideas 2) office itself is more conducive to a particular type of work 3) I get some isolation from the family

But that commute...
Writing some crossword puzzles for the Times is about the smallest quantum amount of "juice" a person could possibly have.
Not to mention that many of the things that the WebKit team has been reluctant to implement the Gecko team has been similarly reluctant about.
> Even giving it authority as a speller is suspect, since as an American, I can say with confidence that Oxford doesn’t know how to spell.

The OED, in my experience, covers the varieties of English spelling quite well, and if you want no distractions as an American but can deal with less extravagantly complete coveraged, you can always use the OAD.

Oxford seems to know how to spell quite well.
We’re adding all of the essays, should be all done by end of August.
> I've worked on a ton of wide applications, and each of them eventually became loathed by users and really hard to design features for.

Yes, I agree that this is the fate of most. But I refuse to believe it's inevitable; rather, I think it comes from systemic flaws in our design thinking. Most of what we learn in a college database course, most of what we read online, most all ideas in this space, transfer poorly to "wide" design. People don't realize this because those approaches do work well for tall applications, and because they're regarded religiously. This is why I call them so much harder.
This is just a general try catch. Build happy path, get VC money and deploy. We'll fix it later.
My god, they really are something. Had quite the time with their SpaceWire driver. Thankfully that’s behind us now… hopefully.
Management and entrepreneurism is incredibly cult-like and I find it increasingly difficult to quietly sit through all their ridiculous sermons.
I'm the same with this. Both and me my partner work remote, and we spend so much more quality time together, and are able to take breaks with each other. I can't see giving that up.
Who cares? I genuinely haven't needed my phone to be faster for at least 5 years. The only reason my phone becomes slower is because of operating system bloat that they keep introducing on phones.

Just give me an open OS, an old phone, and a web browser and I'm good. If I need serious computation I'll use a 400-core ephemeral cloud computer with 12 TB of RAM, or a modern GPU, depending on workload.
That’s not really true. The OED is a historical/scientific work. Its goal is to describe the English language, not to influence it. Things are not described as proper or improper in the OED, though they may of course be described as colloquially, nonstandard, regional, etc., which are not value judgments. A lot of words, especially the ones that have been around for a while, have absolutely tons of variant spellings listed, most of which a normal literate modern person has never heard of.

Source: I have an OED subscription and look at it regularly.
> employers who have a delusion that their workplace is important enough that people need to sacrifice a large portion of their lives just for the opportunity to be there in person.

Being in the office only works with others in the office, so it's a balancing act between this (likely minority) group of both people managers and employees that want RTO, and the group that excels when working in their own curated, controlled environment.
He's not even accused of rape. Once he was safely in jail awaiting extradition, Swedish prosecutors dropped all charges.

> with the population distributed homogenously enough that without weird district lines you would get 5 competitive, near 50-50 seats.

Sure, if you assume something that never happens, then I would be wrong.

In practice all states have D cities and R rural areas. To increase the number of R districts they create a bunch of districts that are mostly rural along with enough of the cities that instead of a small number of solidly R rural districts they have a larger number of mixed districts that lean R.

(And D's do the inverse).

If a flat broke person living on the street, doing lots of drugs, mentally stressed by their circumstance, starts making wild self-aggrandizing claims completely divorced from reality, it isn't controversial to say that person is 'crazy' or mentally ill. People might nitpick the terminology you use to describe that person or criticize you for needlessly drawing attention to it, but nobody goes to bat for the sanity of a homeless person saying crazy shit about themselves.

But if a very rich person living in mansion, doing lots of drugs, mentally stressed by the enormity of their crimes, starts making wild self-aggrandizing claims completely divorced from reality are they crazy? Suddenly people have an interest in defending their mental sanity. Why? Because rich people are entitled to more respect than the homeless by virtue of their wealth, and therefore we shouldn't put common labels like crazy on them? Or maybe it's because a rich luxurious lifestyle makes people immune to the onset of insanity? Were Caligula and Nero not crazy then? On the contrary, I think being very wealthy puts you at greater risk for becoming crazy; the more elite somebody is the more divorced from the typical human experience they become. Power and wealth corrupts their minds, inflating their egos to such an extent they lose track of reality. These people were all crazy. Maybe they weren't "mentally ill" in any biological sense, but they were crazy.
Shen does something unusual in deployment. Their idea is to write a smallish number of intrinsics and data structures in your main language, and then import the shen interpreter on that. This gives you code written in shen, callable from the host language.

This is interesting for sharing code across multi-language projects, e.g. as a JavaScript library and a Java one, where the shen interpreter gets written once per language and now all your library code is callable from any of them.

I think it's a minor misfire that this is an interpreter, as opposed to a compiler from shen to whatever language, but that would be fixable. I'd rather compile the shared definitions to raw c++ code ahead of time than run an interpreter.

Aside from that, the definition is mostly in shen (modulo said primitives) so it has an axiomatic angle to it, and the type checker is a prolog. Compiler and prolog engine both available to user code of course.
this is along the lines of mistaking climate for weather. yes there are areas in israel where you do not necessarily want to be a tourist or visit, but the vast majority of the country is perfectly safe and I'd argue (being from there, and going back nearly every year) it's far safer on average than anywhere I've lived in LA / the US

If you like what the W3C is doing for the privacy, accessibility and openness of
the Web, you can become a W3C participant. Upon finding a W3C Working
Group[1] to which you think you could contribute, you can send an email to the
address of that WG's 'Staff Contact' explaining how you think you could help. If
the Chairs and the Staff Contact agree, they will ask you to join as an 'Invited
Expert' (IE). This does not confer voting rights but grants you access to the
meetings, relevant Git repositories etc. You'll need to sign a licensing agreement allowing the W3C to freely publish your contributions.

I say this because, at first glance, it seems like the only stakeholders with
any influence are W3C Members. The reality is that W3C is very open to
contributions from individuals, but just has had a constitutional framework that
makes things slightly more complicated for individuals, a situation which they are
deliberately improving.

As for myself, I'm an IE for the W3C in the Linked Data area, so whilst of course I do not speak for the W3C, I would be more than happy to answer questions here on HN about how the W3C works.

There is a very large continuum described as communism or socialism that includes things such as anarco-sindicalism, christian socialism, among others.

It's worth making the distinction that the economic and political models are not necessarily tied together - you can have a dictatorship with any economic model, as well as a democracy (even though unregulated capitalism seems to favor concentration of economic and political power).
You have to be careful going down this path because, for example, there are people in USG carefully constructing and maintaining bridges (so to speak) with those people every day, and this has been true for at least 50+ years.

If you are looking for a stereotypical "bad person" example, IMO it's at least a good idea to have an accompanying "bad context" or "bad environment" condition, or your own assessment will tend to be full of ethical blind spots.

18 USC 19 has laws about conspiracy that might cover this:

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/373

It is common knowledge that stalking, harrasment and even violence (all criminal acts) can occur to someone if you doxx them.

In particular, the last section c there says this:

> It is not a defense to a prosecution under this section that the person solicited could not be convicted of the crime because he lacked the state of mind required for its commission, because he was incompetent or irresponsible, or because he is immune from prosecution or is not subject to prosecution.

How I interpreted that is you can't say you didn't expect the person to be harmed. When a person doxx's someone, the intent is to make the public aware of their identity and other details about them, lime their address and it can be strongly proven that not only is such harm to the victim possible, such harm to victims is public knowledge and by that last section, the doxxer can't use ignorance as an excuse. There was no other possible intent that can be used as a defense that does not involve intending to cause harm to the victim by hoping others will do it for you.

I must ask those of you who have actually studied the law, why are doxxers not being charged for conspiracy using this law?
The OED is definitely not UK only.

I would think filtering based on user agent will be the sweet spot for effort and performance. You could do some awful JavaScript monstrosity to detect the tiny fraction of bots who are sneaky, but if they're determined to be sneaky they will succeed at scraping.
Most employers instituting hybrid or RTO will have a way to apply for an exception, which is just a filter to keep high value employees (by approving their fully remote requests) while cutting employees without needing to write severance checks - a "soft layoff" if you will.
It primarily has to do with the physical construction of the magnets, in a toroid the inside of the toroid effectively has more windings per meter of circumference than the outside causing uneven containment.

With mobius strip you regularly flip between inside and outside, so the plasma particles get more even force applied.

There appear to be some go tests as well, but again the ratio is not great
I agree with this.

TBH my view is that the frustration towards open source companies around changing their licenses is sort of misguided. If there's a bad guy in the room, it's AWS. AWS is very good at commercializing open source -- they make literally billions of dollars doing so: Elasticache (Redis), AWS Managed Elastic, RDS etc. Changing the license becomes one of the only ways to hold them off, and the companies that have done so more proactively have fared much better. I think everyone agrees that in an ideal world this wouldn't have to happen, and indeed it didn't really happen until recently when the AWS thing started to become an issue.

Ultimately, SOMEONE is going to leverage the open source for financial gain. So, the question becomes which would you rather have:

- The company commercializing the open source (which is in almost every successful case includes the original creator(s) as a founder, CEO, or employee) benefit from the projects success, which in turn allows them to make further investment in the project.

- AWS benefit from the projects success and (generally speaking) contribute very little back.

Of course, there are plenty of projects that are NOT venture funded that see great success through purely community development. That's great! I just think commercial open source is beneficial as well, especially for larger more complex projects (databases, etc.) that need the funding. The two are not mutually exclusive.

I am also of the belief that the additional funding (both from revenue and from venture investment) that goes into these projects gives them the ability to hire more people, which in turn makes the software better for everyone.

Disclaimer: I am investor that invests predominantly in commercial open source companies. Previously I was developer who used a lot of open source, which is what led me here.
What this tells me is that I really want something like Tailscale but written in Rust and not requiring a third-party, closed source server for authentication. (yes I know about headscale)

Well, the Russians that I know who live here in Iowa have made no such decision.

The many nights that I have spent with them and the Ukrainians that have been drawn into their circle of friendship have an insoluble quality in the face of the catastrophic choices made by their countries.

Yes, I hope that these countries grow some political leadership that has more subtlety and ability to compromise.

No, my friends had nothing to do with the Holodomor, the ceding of Crimea, the unacceptable invasions, or the resistance.

> *I never did figure out how deadlines work.

The failure mode goes "this thing will take two days, I'll start two days before the deadline, oops". The fix is "this thing will take two days, I'll start it immediately". You can then still drop it after two days if you wish, but you have options if your estimate was poor.
I'm talking about constructing boolean circuits. The usual parallel prefix algorithm yields a circuit of depth O(log n) with O(n log n) gates. Using some trickery, however, this can be reduced to O(n) gates, with a constant factor increase in depth.

The goal was always to get into either China or Russia. They are the only geopolitical heavyweights that wouldn't have folded like Ecuador did with Assange.

Notes:

* Landed in Moscow, went to the transit zone which is used to change flights

* Applied for asylum to Cuba, Ecuador and Venezuela.

* Left HK due to agreements and good connections to the US (not that HK is China, but it would have been easier to go to China from HK than to Russia if thats the goal).

Additionally: In an October 2014 interview with The Nation magazine, Snowden reiterated that he had originally intended to travel to Latin America: "A lot of people are still unaware that I never intended to end up in Russia."

Well, all of the 3GPP mobile networks switch to a different logic for emergency calls. In the GSM case all emergency calls (112 is hardcoded in the specification and there is a provision for both USIM and the network to add more numbers that behave that way) use different RR layer protocol that deals in physical addresses (ie. IMEI) and the whole process is streamlined. The MS that initiates emergency call will just uplink an emergency RACH frame to anything that it is synchronized with and the network will respond by allocating traffic channel for that, there is no kind of GSM signaling nonsense with multiple packets involved in that.

This repo seems to have virtually no tests. Is that just the way it is? or do you charge for access to your test suite similar to what SQLite does?
I personally wouldn’t use this. I don’t know if your point about information being “locked” in written form is even being addressed here. There are so many audio books out there but I personally only really enjoy audio books delivered by the author themselves or someone who can actually capture the nuances in the text. So I think you’ll just end up moving this information from being locked in prose to being locked in sound, unless you can accurately capture the tone, nuances and the context around the whole text.

No your correct, I just read it wrong. Really needed to pay attention to the s.
The MPL is an odd license. But they very explicitly made it GPL compatible. So you have to be able to distribute as GPL only. That's the way GPL is.
Yes, in ideal capitalism I would be the sole shareholder in the company that owns and runs everything, including the military and judicial system which has been privatized completely into arbitration.

Probably no one else shares that ideal, but probably thousands would agree it's ideal if they run and own everything.
At the time, the UK couldn't just arrest him at the behest of the US, for exposing state crimes such as torture and extra-judicial killing. He was a popular and respected figure, so public opinion wouldn't allow it. The rape charges served to smear his reputation and erode public support. Now they can do what they want with him.
I’m still skeptical that AGI is a coherent concept, mostly because I am skeptical that general intelligence is one thing rather than a cluster of capabilities, and I am skeptical than humans are even the most “generally intelligent” species on the planet.

https://youtu.be/zsXP8qeFF6A

Here is a video demonstrating the working memory of a chimpanzee. It is obviously considerably better than a human’s. Given this information we must accept one of the following are true:

- humans do not have the highest general intelligence of all animals

- working memory is not a necessary component of general intelligence

- other human capabilities (communication for example) can make up for our working memory deficiencies
