Everything digital nowadays is a liability, not any kind of improvement. That's why I swore I'd never have IoT things at home, even though I myself played with PCBs, ordered PCB manufacturing, and assembled couple devices.

Any IoT and Web pulled upon daily routines is just pain all the way.

Jokes apart, I walk with my kid in stroller, and to navigate public transit, have to use the awful bus monitoring apps. It's a pain to use even with both hands free and without child to monitor.

What does milk being a "growth factor for kids" mean? That statement needs to be backed up with some clarity and data.

The majority of the Earth's population is intolerant to lactose, a component in cow's milk, so it's patently false that milk is some fundamental and crucial part of the human diet.
Linux is absolutely terrible with this, it sits on the "extremely unlikely" end whereas Windows sits on the other in terms of backwards compatibility. It's not surprising either because the entire ecosystem runs on the myth that shared libraries are desirable when any serious look into them shows that almost no space is saved, almost none of them are actually shared by a meaningful amount of apps, almost no actual security issues are avoided by using them.

Anyone who has ever been interested in having someone else be able to run their program has figured out a long time ago that you have to ship your dependencies for them to be able to do so.

If you don't like movies with messaging, I have bad new for you about pretty much whole movies history. Because, oh boy, old movies were quite big on messaging ... and they even had codes/guidlines to ensure messaging is right.
I'm pretty sure they do the same thing as a manual iTunes backup. A lot of the older phones with chips before A13 also seem to be variably vulnerable to being jailbroken with CheckRa1n where they can gain root access. It seems likely that Cellebrite uses CheckRa1n for a lot of older phones. There's also the issue of protection levels where if your phone has been unlocked once since boot (AFU), various keys are kept (possibly transparently) in RAM where they can be dumped somehow.

Also, iCloud backup and several other dangerous "features" like iMessage are enabled by default whenever you sign in to iCloud so there's a few backdoors already standard to anyone who uses iCloud. If you sign in in settings, it automatically signs/opts you into iCloud, even if you don't want it.

I code C pretty extensively and am pretty involved in the community. I rarely hear inline asm (itself, not the invocation) referred to as C; in fact it's pretty explicitly made clear by the general community that you should clearly delineate and cleanly separate asm code and mark that logic as machine specific.

The __asm__ inliner is referred to as C, sure; but not the code itself. That would be like calling FFI'd C in Rust, "rust code".

In addition, it 100% is in the standard beginning with "ANSI C" (C89):

I have a pet theory that the sheer range of information ADHD people expose themselves to is precisely why they're often so versatile cognitively - even if the memories don't stay in "memory", the brain still learns from having processed them.
An alternative I am very happy with is the SuperNote[0].
You can do screen mirroring and this is effectively really nice to quickly draw diagram during a meeting.

The only inconvenient of the approach is that the SuperNote is starting a small webserver and you basically use Firefox to access it. It is very responsive as one would expect, but this means that you need to have your laptop/computer on the same network as the SuperNote. In a home office setup, this is not an issue, but at work, your company policy may prevent this.

Anyway, be it RM2 or SuperNote, these tools are great for people who enjoy writing done ideas with pen and paper. The feeling is really different than doing it in an app or just text document. You can doodle in your notes :-)

It varies from one region to another of the planet. Iraq is an example where all food was organic in the 90s due to sanctions forbade import of most chemicals. You could hardly hear a single case of allergies in the generation of that period. Now most food is imported as the two great rivers drying up, all the younger generations have various forms of allergies, nuts allergy is still virtually absent there though.

That's (phase 2) the preliminary efficacy bit mentioned. But it's not really looking for a great, high quality signal: just some evidence that some indicators move in patients and not necessarily even statistical significance before moving to a phase 3 trial designed to measure benefit.

I've visited hot springs dozens of times, but one experience was by far the best. I stayed at a 400 year old onsen hotel in late winter(feb) with a private bath on the balcony overseeing a river in the mountains.

The loud white noise of the river, the terrible insulation and sleeping on the floor made the night not the most comfortable. But when I woke up early and went to the balcony I tested the water with my feet. It was still 40 degrees and it felt amazing in contrast to the chilly mountain air. I couldn't help but to throw my robe off and enjoy the bath fully submerged.

I only had an hour until checkout, but that sense of the moment slipping out of your hands made it all the more precious.
It's because of commodity-ification of debt. Like a conversion-funnel, they turned it from a human function into an assembly line that eventually leads to your non-payment being sold to a debt collection agency. They assume you won't pay.

So many times I've looked at a reminder email, put it aside because it pisses me off. Yes I have the money to pay, yes its like 2mins to do in my banking app, yes I will settle it, but No I won't do it now that you effing emailed me about it. I'll do it on my own time...and then I forget till the next annoying reminder email that pisses me off even more.

Some days I wonder if some of this stuff is normal or if it's just me. I'd love to just have an assistant to offload this mental drain to either way.

If you’re using iOS, there’s a built-in system for Background Sounds[0] that has quite a few options, and is built into the OS, which means it definitely still works while your phone is locked, or even otherwise engaged. It even gets out of the way for other audio and comes back very gradually.

We do know that kids used to die a lot more, so that is quite possible. But also, it is even more likely that combination of factors is in play - that allergies rates are influenced by environment and also that kids with allergies are diagnozed now.
The original concepts of 4GL and 5GL are long gone [1], and I do think it is reasonable to reuse the 4GL label for other possibilities.

[1] In the sense that those labels do not describe the actual "generation". There still exist visual programming (4GL) and constraint and logic programming (5GL), but they are no longer considered to delieve the goal of 4GL and 5GL by its own, and thus have failed to generate enough interest to be considered a "generation".

> A pre-industrial farm background of wind, animal calls, bird songs, water flow sounds like paradise in comparison

No. It just "«sounds»". I am typing in real time a couple dozen yards from a stream, it is much more annoying than a motorway at reasonable distance (which, as others have noted, means "kilometers" - as people who got unused to the outdoors lost the idea of how easily sound propagates without barriers). It includes even more annoying parts like the rumble that falls create through the landscape acoustic. Animal calls here are the typical obtuse racial slurs barked from villas (occasionally cries of terror from the woods). Wild boars are fortunately very polite sound wise. But birds, with their shrieks, up to cuckoos deejaying around, can be the most annoying - even more when you suspect that they are advertising for mating, the fixated things. But speaking of texture: oh the insects. Go into the right woods in the right season, and see if your thought can be louder than the buzz. Speaking of natural background can be as "innocent" as dreaming of that fashion model unaware of her halitosis.

The idea of the "garden" was coined by people who lived surrounded by sand, burned their feet on sand, ate sand and drank sand juice. And thought "If only I had the luxury to live through picking fruits and enjoy a bit of shade".

> And just this summer, “flash robs” in Maryland, Philadelphia, Chicago and elsewhere took the joyous spirit of flash mobbery and turned it toward dark ends.

> Earlier this month, Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter ordered 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday curfews for minors after a string of flash mob attacks by young people who used email and social media to organize violence, police said. ...

> On Aug. 17, CNN reported on a flash mob in Maryland that suddenly assembled to rob a 7-Eleven. Surveillance footage from the store shows several dozen teens pouring into the store and cleaning it out like locusts in a field. ...

> Flash rob: When the concept of the flash mob is applied to petty larceny.

That was when BART security shut off its underground cell phone service to try and break the ability to organize via phones.

The risk of death from food allergies is often exaggerated. Fatal anaphylaxis is actually extremely rare. Even in people with severe allergies.

Meanwhile the treatments are not 100% guaranteed to work, and they do have significant risks of their own, plus costs both monetary and non. So it's completely reasonable even for people with severe allergies to choose to not be treated. But I agree that more people should be made aware of the options.

As teachers for over thirty years, my wife and I have a saying "nothing changes until motivations and behavior change". Motivations don't respond to logic well. Lots of people wonder why they have limited success in areas they have a lot of knowledge and interest

Behavior changes are even tougher, usually meaning new behaviors can often only piggyback on existing habits. We think that if we think it, we will do it, but lots of factors slow us down, including misunderstanding procrastination and the far-reaching effects of improving sleep and diet.
I'll add that C# also has using statements that dispose the object when the current scope exits (including if it exits due to an exception) this significantly cuts down on ugliness .

Note that my Nvidia experience is roughly 5 years old. Some things might have changed during that time.

When I was using Nvidia GPU my experience that 50% after a system update which included kernel update, the Nvidia kmod didn't properly rebuild resulting in graphical interface completely non working next time I booted the system. In such situations I had to switch to terminal and enter a couple of commands to ensure the Nvidia driver is also properly updated and the glue layer between kernel and the driver rebuilt. Most of the time that helped but occasionally it didn't and I had to stay on previous kernel version for a week until the issues got solved.

That was a couple of years ago with fedora. On a different distro with less frequent kernel updates and Nvidia drivers being repackaged by the maintainers of distro instead of third party repo like rpmfusion, or a bigger distro that Nvidia tests ahead of time, the experience might have been slightly more smooth.

Currently with AMD open source driver's that's not an issue since the drivers are part of kernel so everything just works and always has compatible versions. I can install any recent distro and it will just work out of the box.

Last year Nvidia open sourced some parts of their driver, but not all of it (it still depends on large user space binary blobs), it might slightly help with the practical aspects of problem above. But I don't know whether distros embraced it and did it actually help (I dropped Nvidia before that).

I don't disagree that it's at least partially more of the fault of Linux kernel for not having stable API, not so much AMD or Nvidia. But for the end user it doesn't matter whose fault it is. AMD chose to play by the rules of Linux, which makes much better end user experience better.

All of this applies only to graphic driver part, GPU compute is a completely different story.

Another big part as others mentioned is wayland support. For a long time Nvidia drivers dindn't support it at all due to not providing certain interface. From what I understand currently it works on the major desktop environments like Gnome and KDE, but due to them adding support for Nvidia specific interface not the other way around. So it still doesn't work on more niche desktop environments which use the common interface supported by rest of drivers.

~12 years ago, before AMD made their official open source drivers situation was completely different. The choice then for AMD was between non official open source drivers which had 50% performance but worked correctly and the closed source AMD drivers that were 2x faster (when they worked) but otherwise buggy. Compared to that Nvidia closed source drivers worked.

The electromagnetic field is the only one that is busy at all scales, from the atomic level, to stellar and even cosmological scales. Strong and electroweak forces dont have a macroscopic footprint, while gravity doesnt have a microscopic one.

So when gravity manifests around a mass agglomeration its somehow "normal". But when a strong magnetic field builds around a star is almost like the microscopic "leaking" into the macroscopic. Countless tiny electrons coordinated in a dance that can be seen across the universe.
I get it the other way around. From lazy subordinates (usually juniors but older people too) that don't want to do the work required of them so instead they come "asking questions" because "they don't understand". Like if I wanted to do the work and figure out all the problems in this task, I'd have done it myself instead of delegating it to you.

It's almost as if they want to be little assembly line workers that make the same CRUD widget over and over. They're not lazy, they're probably also just as stripped of their EF as the rest of us plebs.
Putin didn't have that kind of power nationally during the Yeltsin years. He was powerful in St. Petersburg, but he would never have risen to national prominence had Yeltsin not hand-picked him as his successor. Yeltsin, in turn, was propped by a coalition of Western interests who had helped him orchestrate a slate of "market based" reforms known as shock therapy, which in effect bankrupted the country while simultaneously conducting a fire sale of everything valuable to western business interests. People forget, but when Putin rose to power the American press lavished him with praise as "someone we could do business with", and Putin even broached the idea of joining NATO with President Clinton at one point. Had Bush not (needlessly) pulled out of ABM treaty a year later, the first in a series of utterly pointless provocations of a country we at that point viewed as a potential ally, our relationship with Russia might look very different today.
> this "feature" is literally only beneficial for the company

Is this actually true? I don't know. I don't think consumer file hosting services would be viable at their present price points if they were storing every single file byte-for-byte.

Certainly some of the value capture belongs to the company, but if you're not particularly concerned about security it seems like a win-win.

If you are concerned about security, encrypt your files and everyone else with deduplicated files will subsidize the cost of your service.
From what I can tell, their 'local' mode still can't use your own LLM model, just host it yourself, and still charged per request despite using my own hardware to run? Very confusing.

If there are 2 million lost accounts since Google's inception, then there are 0.1% of all accounts lost. And why are they lost?

Account loss comes from many factors: failing to secure it and being hacked. Losing passwords or credentials. Abandonment. Inactivity. TOS violations. Death of user.

There are many reasons accounts could be lost, and almost none of those reasons are no reason at all.
Great post, digestible without experience in capn proto specifics.

I really like that they talk in terms of “features carrying their own weight” and survey real world code to see what cases features solve for, and how (surprisingly little) certain features are actually used.

A side effect of dropping features when designing for code generation (in this case) is that it makes things more concise for everyone else as well, including the users.

There are generally no easy answers, but as a principle I think the burden of proof for new features should be high. “Oh it’s nice” is not enough, unless it’s trivial syntactic sugar. It should really be at least a strong need and ideally multiple needs per feature, so to say.
I wish MS would officially open-source MSPaint too, even (or especially) if it's the version that came with Windows 3.x, for comparison with this. However, given their history, it's more likely we'll see them open-sourcing the horrible "modern" version instead.
I imagine they mostly all do it, with the exception of maybe Tresorit, possibly ProtonDrive but I am not super familiar with them. Its actually a "feature" of convergent encryption which Apple uses in lieu of true zero-knowledge e2ee like Tresorit.
