Cool project (based on me skimming the documentation). I’m a hobbyist game dev whose been attempting a deploy of a simple multiplayer game on AWS, specifically gamelift, for about four months.

Turns out I thought I knew more than I really did thus I’ve been spending much of my hobbyist time learning more AWS. I’m pretty stubborn about a local dev experience which takes time to establish an appropriate mental model to do. So it goes. Pro tip: find your application “interfaces” and discover what tooling can be used instead of a cloud resource (e.g. a mongoDB compatible document database is the interface to which AWS DocumentDB and MongoDB are concrete implementations). I have a docker compose file I use for local dev. It’s the best setup I’ve found for myself but I am open for advice.

Anyways I’d just like to voice myself as a possible target audience. Being able to develop locally is important to me and the hardest parts with AWS is having little support on how exactly to do this. Assuming this is even a fair ask to make…

P.S. another pro tip; I use Unity + Mirror networking for my multiplayer games. GameLift requires code integrated into your game code for it to function. I use nested prefabs to handle two cases: (1) when I want gamelift code to execute and (2) when I just want to focus on writing the multiplayer code. My production code uses (1) and I usually do development in (2). (2) is a child of (1).

P.P.S. GameLift has a lag of about 2-3 minutes when registering my running game server in Unity editor with a “gamelift anywhere fleet” before it can receive traffic. I didn’t know about this for a while and stressed out over the inconsistency. Make sure to measure timings on this so you don’t go crazy.
Why not use Python, or any other normal language, instead of all this bash nonsense?
This is another legal ass-covering thing, because “we give our employees 3 hours of safety training” will hold up better in court than “we give our employees 5 minutes of safety training” — the actual content of the course doesn’t matter, whether employees are acting safely or not doesn’t matter, the only thing that matters is how well the company can avoid liability.
I have modafinil for a different off-label use, but it has been helpful for some of my anxiety's symptoms. It's helpful for the brain fog and the paralyzing that comes with 'too many things to do = shut down and do NOTHING and PANIC' type of being overwhelmed.

Makes me REALLY irritable though.
>What has made a major impact was seeing an ENT [...] Turns out “negative pressure” is a major cause of airway collapse.

The cause of snoring & apnea, from my own searching online and seeing various anecdata, is that there are several common causes but it can vary wildly.

I've also tried many similar treatments to yours, short of CPAP, and including trying tongue & jaw exercises and mewing to try and get my default sleeping jaw & tongue position to be the same as when I'm awake (never had success after months). I had my deviated septum corrected and a turbinectomy alongside it, and it made absolutely no difference to my snoring (but I do breathe better in more humid climates now).

The only other main factor I've noticed is weight, or rather visceral fat. Being overweight often comes with lots of visceral fat, and this includes near the airways, thus constricting the space your airways have to operate with. Perhaps that contributes to this whole negative pressure thing.

A side benefit of having your partner sleep separately is that there is far less sleep disturbance, even the kinds you wouldn't notice. My sleep quality has gone up.
What do you have against SSO everywhere? I see it as actually one of the things that makes obvious sense. It makes the user's life easier and improves security. It makes it easy to give a new employee access to a bunch of systems at once using RBAC. That and putting users' SSH public keys in LDAP and using that for auth everywhere instead of passwords are two obvious pure wins to me.
This should result in a huge huge fine for theft of the car.
No, weights are data, just like transformation matrices used by graphics code. The data has no meaning without the code, and the code is what creates and manages it based on its inputs, as an aid to generating some output. So it's perfectly accurate to talk about the code as the main (or only) actual mechanism.
The code here isn't producing a specific, designed, or planned output. It is effectively doing refined data analysis and interpretation of an intermediate format (the weights) that is exclusively dependent on its input data not on the code itself.

I don't see any inconsistency in this ruling.
The standard does say it. UB means there are absolutely no rules regarding what happens. It's not implementation defined, it's "absolutely anything can happen and it can change unpredictably".
Could you elaborate? I think your comment is meant in jest, but as both the Eclipse and Obsidian have marketing departments, I don't know how to interpret it.

>>I understand the need for 'security', but still.

not even for that...

It is a common trope in modern times for companies to use "security" as a method to prevent ownership of a product, Apple does it, Tesla does it, Microsoft Does it, most companies use this excuse

You can have security with out giving up ownership

By ownership, i use that under the original term, that I the owner of product have the sole and exclusive control over the property.
I built https://github.com/mmastrac/keepcalm/ to specifically give "permission" to use ref-counting to make your life easier. For a webserver, references don't make any sense and really don't add anything measurable from a performance perspective.
And as someone who's dealt with the ins and outs of CPAP and sleep apnea, increasingly, I believe that reason has very little to do with safety or expertise.

I'm not saying experts can't be valuable, but there's too much obvious bullshit in this space to take at face value what is supposed to be "best practices."

The price fluctuations, the differing bits of information, the restrictions on who can and cannot get what without a prescruption, etc are often quite absurd (when, e.g. compared to the potential danger of MUCH other OTC stuff.)

Example: that it's made condescendingly artificially difficult to adjust your own pressure in a CPAP. It's a damn fan with a release; if you're otherwise healthy, it strongly appears as if the worst possible dangers here are, your sleep will continue to suck and/or you'll fart more.
You can't have that because when N=K that's not a valid expression and when N>K you're putting a negative number in the big-O notation. You can't have negative runtime.

All algorithms have a lower-bound on runtime of 1. If a sequence is decreasing and bounded below, it converges to a value [1]. If the sequence is discrete, that means it reaches exactly that limit and never deviates from it.

I am sorry, but why do people still buy teslas?
Wow I never knew this was a thing... thank you for sharing, I think :-)
And the actual database can be postgres, or is that also sqlite?
Proprietary software on wheels. No thank you. I'd rather buy a mostly mechanical machine.
Check the national news
"If" == "Falls" while "When" == "Wenn"

The difference in meaning becomes apparent in: "It's a matter of when, not if"
No, nothing like a single party system. Or are you saying a nation only fighting for itself is like a single party system?

Control = power x influence. The argument was that more control can be had through having a local currency. I think, for smaller countries, more control and thus more sovereignty is had through teaming up, because the cooperation is (at least in the case of the EU) democratic, and is a tool more powerful than any national tool ever could be, and therefore control is larger.
It’s a blend of both. The human ear has a vastly more complex structure than a membrane and a sensor.

We have complex flexible shapes to channel audio. Alongside an extremely complex set of hairs for hearing.
> it’s not rent seeking for the original creator to sell content direct to a consumer.

So it’s rent seeking for the original creator to post it for free and sell ads against it?

And what’s with this “original creator” language? Does that only apply to the author, or can the company that paid the author to create it sell it without being rent-seekers?

My point is: you called fb and news producers both rent seekers, and i don’t believe they both are unless you use a overly broad to the point of useless definition of rent-seeking.
Who should be fined, though? The repo company? Tesla (the company)? The employee who didn't cash the cheque?
[Playing devil's advocate]

So Tesla did not accept the payment, and tried to contact the customer to sort it out. Customer did not reply to emails, or respond to phone calls.

After some time, Tesla needs to get car back, so they do.

Once payment has been made in full, car is returned.

Obviously inconvenient and not ideal, but what should Tesla have done differently? They tried and could not contact the customer, for all they knew the person was deliberately trying to avoid them and keep the car without paying.

Would you expect any company to behave differently if acceptable payment has not been made, and the customer does not respond to contact attempts?
> This is actually a pretty bad argument. Bluetooth only goes 30 feet, so your connection would likewise only go… 30 feet.

I may not have made myself clear with my original argument, I meant to say offline controls are clearly possible. So if offline controls are possible there’s 0 excuses for controls not to be available in LAN-only mode. (LAN-only is wifi connected, cloud disabled)

> All of the things you can control on your smartphone can be controlled on the printer itself, so what’s the point?

It is way easier to tap a button on the app when dealing with hardware issues than using the built in menus (that’s my opinion). But more importantly there is no valid reason to not make them available in LAN-only mode, that was an intentional decision on their part.

> That is, I will just say right now, not how 90%+ of customers would expect an app to work. For most people, a smartphone app that only works at home is confusing and upsetting.

The 3D printing community is pretty technical, so I think anyone disabling cloud mode would be able to understand the consequences. An opt-out (without degrading the experience) is all bambu owners are asking for. And keep in mind 3D printers are a fire hazard so printing while you aren’t home is a risk.
Maybe they were bought together? I had a few drives I bought together (Seagate, though, I think), and they started failing within a month or so of each other.

I did replace them with WD, though, I think. Oops.

No apology. No restitution.

My father emailed them back saying he was glad the issue was resolved but was disappointed that there was no restitution offered, not even an apology.

They then emailed back the equivalent of saying “well we did try to contact you about this.”

Just yesterday there was a bit rant-y thread about people suck at their job horribly. This is such a perfect example. They mess it up badly, and suddenly somehow it's the customer's fault.

I see no reason why you couldn't run a printer over BT, indeed there are meany BT printers out there.
The headline doesn’t seem to be what actually happened. The filer was arguing that the ai created the work on its own as a work for hire and thus the ai was the author with the computer scientist merely being the owner of the copyright as it was made for hire. I don’t think the argument that ai is a tool and the human operating it is the author was considered because the filer explicitly didn’t want to consider it.

In the review being appealed here (https://www.copyright.gov/rulings-filings/review-board/docs/...). It makes it clear that the computer scientist doing the filing was trying to argue this was a work made for hire with the author being the computer. They wanted to argue that copyright can be assigned to non humans, but that just isn’t how the law works. The summary makes it clear early that it’s just taking their word that the work had no human input and was thus purely the creation of the computer. This seems to be a a better article https://www.millernash.com/industry-news/paradise-denied-cop....
Sometimes the creativity and passion of a child can just completely shake up the doldrums of being an adult! Thanks for sharing this.
I feel like this could be rendered as a 16 bit screen saver.
> I am redrafting the documents and title/lien to your name instead of [BANK]. I have attached documents. Once funds post I can then restore access to the vehicle and release title/lien to your name.”

Hmm why exactly did the title have [BANK] on it instead of their name in the first place if they paid in full up front? I'm not sure I'd accept anything other than my name on a title after forking over that kind of cash.
I felt that the FAQs were definitely bolted on by an LLM. Maybe they were trying to pad it out?
I think it is but I believe the rub is related to cooking temp. You're not supposed to heat it above x (400F? not sure) and it breaks down beyond that.
Fortunately Git tags are almost as good as RSS entries, it is easy to get a list of versions from somebody as long as they are creating tags in a Git repo.

There is not usually support in reader software though, so a little scripting is still required, unless they use a Git hosting platform that exposes those as RSS (GitHub and GitLab do).
ESP-32, the Rust support is not mature enough to ship commercially.

C-410 from Qualcomm, which is a whole different world, I can’t even look at the source code.

chatgpt vibes, huh? maybe the author's just a fan. or we're all bots in disguise. plot twist!

On a side note, i can't help but wonder if, in a few centuries, someone will be analyzing the 'VOC' equivalent of old USB sticks to determine which early 2000s computer they came from
Why wouldn't the AI creator program it to do that, for personal gain? If there is value, somebody will try to extract it.
It appears to be in C++, why state it as C/C++?
The current trend in BEV's show that most of the manufacturers are moving to the same systems of control and subject to the same problems.

It is not a Telsa problem, it is a industry problem. We had to pass the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act to prevent the Automotive companies from abusing customers in the 70's

Looks like we will need to update that, through out history Automotive companies have been some of the most abusive companies to work for, to work with (as a vendor) and to buy from as a customer.
They trust the companies that have ownership of key parts of the stack, rather than picking vendors for each piece and slapping them together. Such companies have a lot more internal expertise.

Yes, it'd be nice to have more vendors like this, but you don't necessarily build a more robust industry just by having more vendors that buy NAND and a controller, make a few firmware tweaks for differentiation, and slap together a design based on an app note.
I agree. I’m glad they are contacting a lawyer.

I’ll always buy electric cars now but I’ll never buy another Tesla. Love the powertrain, dislike the cheap car parts wrapped around it & hate the company that comes with it.
The standard is explicit that the behavior of code with undefined behavior is well... undefined and that implementations can do whatever they want.

> Financial controls?! They don't have any. Any Canadian I know who has placed a deposit for a Tesla product and then requested a refund for that deposit has received the deposit back, no questions, for the correct sum.... except in USD. My one buddy has done this three times, each time receiving back dollar for dollar his deposit, in USD. Great investment.

They really should invest in some accountants.
New procedural modeling technique that overcomes many of the limitations of Model Synthesis and Wave Function Collapse. Generates shapes from example, but does not use tiles. Just presented at SIGGRAPH. Link includes the paper, video presentations, and a demo.
I was banned from /r/motorcycles for commenting on a handlebar camera video where a guy was racing down a winding, limited visibility road with his buddies and lost control trying to avoid hitting a cyclist who was crossing in a crosswalk, complete with blinking warning lights.

Every comment was "fuck that cyclist, they rode out in front of you!"

Apparently calculating from the video that they were doing 15+ mph over the speed limit, and proving from the video and math that the cyclist could not see him before they'd started into the crosswalk...was ban-worthy.

The guy even blurred out his speedometer to hide that he was speeding.

His comment/post history showed that the motorcycle, which was a very powerful model, was his first bike and he'd very recently bought it. He posted "new motorcycle day" pictures.

The guy was a textbook squid: recently acquired first bike was too powerful for him, no brains/skills, riding dangerously, putting himself and others at risk.

Pointed that out to the mods and was told I was being reported for "doxxing." For clicking on "posts" on his profile and seeing he'd recently posted a picture of the bike.

Fuck that subreddit and its mods.
I wrote about my experience with broken SSDs before. I had that one from SunDisk, and when it broke, I contacted support. Without much difficulty, I received a replacement, which works fine. I also had the same problem with a Samsung SSD, but I wasn't able to get any meaningful response from them at all.

So the lesson is not about the broken drives, as all of them could be broken. It's about who is actually willing to fix the inconvenience for you.

SunDisk/WD will do it, and you'll have a working drive. Samsung, on the other hand, will do nothing in this case.
Yes, the author's background matters when judging the value of a text. A nobel laureate is usually correct about the basics of their own field. I wouldn't trust a 10 year old child's knowledge about poisons. Even though some 10 year old child somewhere might know their poisons better than most experts.
The Unix command line tools were designed to be usable in a lot of ad hoc situations. In an ad hoc situation, unstructured text is often what you have. So, to be usable for that, the command line tools had to be able to operate on unstructured text as input. That left two options - either also accept something structured as input, or accept only unstructured text as input.

"Usable in an ad hoc situation" gets us back to composability. If you can compose existing parts to meet a novel situation, that's better than having to carefully architect a solution. And the key to being able to do that is common interfaces. Unix did exactly that. And, for all the criticism, it works pretty well.

Can a well-designed interface do better? Sure. Can a well-designed interface deal with something outside the design parameters as well? Probably not.
I was an Apollo Ultra user, went from 2-3 hours a day before the blackout to zero now, outside the occasional Google search.
Nope, there’s no cost for it.

Equivalent systems from other companies do have subscriptions though.
That would make sense if there is an actual way to enforce the law, the entire conversation is about how to prove that a bad actor is violating copyright law by copyrighting AI art.

It's kinda weird but if I don't think too long about it I still sorta associate 3.5" as "modern", where as the classic floppies are the 5.25".

It's silly at this point in time but windows 3.11 (the first version of windows I used) also feel decidedly "modern" where as DOS is "old" (even though less than 10 years separated my first experiences with them, and both were way longer than 10 years ago).
Tribes 2 holds a special place in that they effectively built a proto-internet inside the game client.

It shipped with user-accounts, IRC (chat), newsgroups (forums), email (direct messages), LDAP (groups/clans/tribes), integrated voice, basically all the components of the internet except calendaring, and if you call CD-Keys like client certs... we'll, just impressive for any game and especially a game of the 2002 era.
This is one part of the story I find odd... If I paid cash for a something, I am walking out with the Title, or the paperwork that the dealer/tesla filed the title paperwork in my name...
I told you already, it’s called Bambu Studio. It offers remote control, and monitoring, to a locally networked PC.

https://wiki.bambulab.com/en/software/bambu-studio/remote-co...

You just can’t do it from your phone. Which, considering your phone likes connecting to cell phone towers (and thus disconnecting from your printer), I completely get why they didn’t want to bother.
Here the programmer was trying to make a point that AIs deserve to be marked as authors. I think this ruling is much less broad then the article is implying. Presumably an argument that the programmer deserved the copyright in deference to the creative work used to make the algorithm or that the AI is just a tool like photoshop or a camera might have worked, but the filer here wasn’t interested in that line of thinking and wanted to open up copyright to machines
I researched Bambu printers before and it seemed, at least at the time, you could not manage it with open source Octoprint. I prefer not to connect my printer to the live network but still want to access it remotely, which Octoprint accomplishes via serial connection.
Sounds like a country in need of a descent payment system :)

I do not follow this stuff, just a quick DDG search:

"The Trump administration’s campaign against Chinese telecommunications giant Huawei Technologies included strict restrictions on semiconductor sales to the company; those sanctions halved TSMC’s exports to China to 10 percent of its global sales. The company is now under increasing pressure to police the orders it receives from other Chinese companies, and as the Biden administration tightens export controls, the Taiwanese company has canceled more Chinese contracts."
