Vertical tabs take a much larger fraction of your screen than horizontal tabs. The entire original USP of Chrome was that the “Chrome” part of the browser window took the absolute bare minimum space in the screen letting you focus on the content. I think people still psychologically expect that to be true.

I wanted to love vertical tabs but I just keep going back. If you have multiple browsers open side by side it gets annoying how much screen the tabs take up.

I had some eneloops in flashlights when we lost power for several hours—almost all the batteries died within an hour of use. I will use non-rechargeable batteries for those from now on unless the higher capacity rechargeable ones won’t drain so fast. My kitchen scale, remotes and mice have all been fine (often needing to be recharged only once every year or two) but some uses don’t seem suited to rechargeables.

Even without ChatGPT, looking for information you're not already an expert on can be a minefield of opinions disguised as facts, false dichotomies, biased perspectives/framings, omissions, etc..

And it's already bad enough before you consider that someone may have intentionally attempted to mislead you.

> I am saying that the funding of current PhD students is irrelevant to whether their family is wealthy, not that familial background is irrelevant.

I don't think it's correct to equate having a graduate degree with being "wealthy", especially depending on which degree it is specifically. In any case, graduate student salaries aren't means-tested at all, and the weird form of backdoor familial means-testing that you're suggesting, i.e., don't raise the funding for humanities students, seems quite bizarre and extremely imperfect. Unless you're claiming, absurdly, that there are no STEM grad students of affluent background, I don't see that this form of means-testing has any place in union negotiations. The document you cited just shows averages, but individual graduate students of all fields clearly have parents with every different kind of educational attainment.

On a personal note, I was a grad student in the humanities, neither of my parents has a college degree, and they certainly weren't affluent. Moreover, they didn't pay a dime for my grad school. I would have loved if there were means testing, because I would have benefitted, but it didn't exist. So it's difficult to avoid taking this personally when humanities students are wrongly stereotyped.
Yeah, at one point big clive mentioned this about NiMH, and that they have really good slow discharge variants now. I now make sure that any of my expensive gear has NiMH so that I don’t have to worry about battery acid.
Currently I am developing a browser extension to improve the review process on GitLab.

At the company, where I work, we are heavily relying on multiple reviewers to promote familiarity with the code base, as well as, of course, to increase overall code quality.

Gitlab Premium and Ultimate allow to use multiple reviewers, however, we don't need any other features from those tiers (well, maybe organization-wide code search could be nice as well).

As the result, I created a browser extension, which allows to use multiple reviewers via comments and descriptions. It also has graceful degradation, i.e. even team members without the extension will still be able to participate in the process.

On top of that the extension adds merge request deadlines with notifications, comment labels (viewable without the extension as well), custom review statuses ("Approved conditionally " is a real time saver) and more.

The extension works pretty well in our company, however, I would love to see if it's applicable to other companies as well, or what other features people need.

If you've got the controller board your drive wants and still nothing, then its time for professional help or considering the data lost, imo.
So I can use an open source LLM like Llama then?
> if overpriced

"overpriced" is a vast understatement. overpriced would be if it costs $8k but is sold at $12k.

Instead the pricing is crippling, and instead of 8k it's 48k, and the average student will roll out with between 100k-200k in debt. debt that is not dischargable except in very rare, specific cases.
This is great. This is mentioned in the discussion topics section ("modeling randomness in gathering belongings"). But I wonder what the distribution of baggage-gathering time looks like? I'd guess pretty positively skewed, i.e. most people are pretty quick but then a few people take a long time or a really long time. The speed of the flush stage of a particular wave is capped at the slowest person in that wave.

I think anybody should have the right to protect the word combinations they own by not publishing them on the internet.
If not for the ability to monetize, there would be a small fraction of the total available work out there. From music, to movies, to video games. And for many, the quality we come to enjoy just wouldn’t be possible. Do you think we’d have a Skyrim, or GTA, or equivalent if there weren’t millions to be made to employ thousands of people to make it happen? What about the largest and most influential films and TV shows of the past decade? These things take money to produce. I could see the argument for music, maybe, but even then I don’t think it’d be sustainable. Just because an artist may enjoy working on their art after working 50 hours a week to pay the bills doesn’t mean they should HAVE to if their art is good enough and desired enough to sustain them, thus allowing them to create more and of a higher caliber (in theory).
It probably has more to do with the stated business rather than what's possible. For example, nothing is stopping you from going on whatsapp and, one hexadecimal byte at a time, writing out the entirety of a zip file full of whatever illegal stuff you want. Then, there's nothing stopping people from copying those bytes into a hex editor and recreating your stuff. This was used to great effect with DeCSS leading to the ideal of "illegal primes". The USG would have to ban typing any string of hex into anything to make this actually have teeth. But then you could move to binary, octal, brainfuck code that creates the file with shifts, etc.

But, with a company that hosts files you are liable for checking those files. There's also nuance here: you can't check everything all the time. You also can't check encrypted shit. But if you make no effort (see: the bar example) then that rises to inducement. Anonfiles, for example, is negligent in this regard. There's no law preventing you from allowing people to store encrypted files but there should be a way to not only comply with valid, warrant-provided, law enforcement requests but also keep track of such "prolific" uploaders as they are most likely uploading shit you don't want.

Source: I work in an industry that, unfortunately, has to deal with this stuff all the time. The internet is a sick place. Our legal team briefed us on our responsibility (in terms of storage and processing) along with the correct chain-of-command should something come up. Of course, we also have therapy available which is used more often than you'd think. In our case there's also some protection afforded to us for the things that may be stored because we comply with various law enforcement agencies when necessary. Posted further up you see:

Which tells you they had zero idea what they were doing. If you're not hosting your anonymous service on an derelict oil platform deep in international waters you have a responsibility to get the correct legal counsel and set up a system for handling chomos. Ignorance is not an excuse, "volunteer" is not an excuse, AND you shouldn't make a service that protects chomos.
I’d take the other side of that bet if it was stipulated that the 1 year start after this became a common captcha technique.

People are working on generating animation on a rig from text prompts:
https://www.motorica.ai/
It would be easier if we knew the prompts ahead of time and then we just render transitions.

Real time-ness and a good deal of rendering fidelity can be mitigated by pretending to have crappy network connection once the prompt is given, unless you are comfortable excluding people without reliable internet.

I think the bigger issue is probably with the premise though. This kind of video rendering is much more taxing but it’s also much more taxing on the verification side. I can’t imagine a company being able to do this at scale the way captchas are to defend against bots, you’d need an automated system on the frontline.
Thank you, that's an answer that I can understand. It's always great to see greater browser engine diversity. (Whatever happened to Servo?)
So technically it might be possible to do that. But I don't think the economics would work out for that. Mostly because your cost of hydrogen will then be linked to the cost of electricity coming in. Given the choice between hydrogen which will cost the base electricity prices + overhead of electrolysis plants and transportation or to just use a resistive heater, you would most likely pick the resistive heater since it would be cheaper.

Not saying people should switch to resistive heaters since they significantly less efficient than heat pumps but simply that resistive electric heating would be cheaper than hydrogen (If that hydrogen is produced using electrolysis).

Freedom of association - the right to tell someone to get off your lawn, or your website - is free speech too.
Actually, we’re not unique and often predictable. There usually is someone who says “I’ll never use the product because…” And it’s often a top comment. e.g. Smartphones with GPS, Amazon Alexa,…

To me it’s simply a noisy discussion with little value. Don’t use it but let’s not waste time debating it. No one’s mind is going to change.

I’d love nothing more than for an algorithm to filter out the noise and extract any information and facts. Learning whose opinion I trust on specific topics would also be useful.

Of course, others will tell me why this doesn’t work for them and they want the added noise. Seriously, the entire point is that some people will want the product while others don’t.

I’m not trying to change your mind, and I’m not trying to stop anyone else from the discussion. It’s simply not for me, in general.
It doesn't necessarily need to be diverted entirely. Simply breaking it up into smaller components significantly reduces it's impact force.

Smaller pieces burn up more readily in the atmosphere and create smaller impacts (I believe exponentially smaller)
Ah, data compression

The captcha buster extension[^0] along with the service on you computer to move the mouse for you works very very well. It uses google’s TTS (afaik) to transcribe the audio captcha. It’s google verifying another google service works well. I find it very satisfying to not provide my labor to train googles computer vision corpus but instead have the snake bite it’s own tail.

Anyway, I highly recommend buster, I barely notice captchas anymore with it.

Fantastic news but this isn't at all surprising.
Great and everything, but what we really need is police accountability.

Recording cops can help trigger some public outrage but so often the follow up to bad interactions is 1 week unpaid vacation or getting hired the next district over and a $1 million dollar bill for the local municipality.

Until cops see personal impacts for violating civil rights, they aren't going to change.

>How is compression not a real workload?

Not parent, but I guess what he / she meant was total workload. E.g, If 100% of your workload, only 5% of that is compression, speeding it up by 5x will only give you a 4% reduction in total system workload.

Which means other factor like clock speed, more core, cache etc in a different system could still win despite it lost the compression benchmarks.
Meh. I agree that there are a bunch of reasons this won't appeal to many but if this was as reliable as it claims to be and I had a business reason to use it I'd gladly pay the money just to get that functionality off my plate. It could be easily justifiable if customer conversions required a barcode scan. Easier scanning = more $$$.

Online-only isn't ideal but I'd imagine the vast majority of use cases here are going to be always-online anyway (what are you going to do with the barcode value if not send it somewhere?)

There are some measures in place to combat piracy which I won't go into obviously, but probably not enough for someone determined enough to make an effort. On-device license check for unsigned code is basically impossible.

On the other hand, that person would probably never have paid anyway. Also, as mentioned in the text, there are more interesting targets if you really want to get into it, which have the same problems.
:) Yeah, the "awesome project, terrible product" idea you're expressing has crossed my mind many times. It's an interesting line to try and walk to be sure.

Care to share more on the research you did? I'd love to hear more.

While I'm not a stranger server-side languages, the last decade of my career has been mostly building CRUD apps with JavaScript. So, I initially tried building out this simulation using React + PixiJS. I ran into performance issues with React's reconciler pretty quickly. That, plus no real modern, 2D JavaScript game engine (BabylonJS for 3D .. PhaserJS for 2D?) made me look elsewhere.

My intention is to build a web-first game not a steam-first game because I see focused interaction with the game being just a couple of minutes each day, but brief check-ups on the game state to occur repeatedly throughout the day. I don't think those use cases align with how I see myself using Steam. Usually Steam is a sit down and game for an hour sort of thing.

Assuming web-first is a priority, but avoiding JS, the only option is WASM. I did some reading around and saw suggestions to avoid using GC'ed languages because JavaScript's GC is one mark against it already and because stuffing a GC into a WASM build makes it very heavy.

Those decisions sort of naturally pushed me into Rust/Bevy for better or worse!

I live in Germany and I'm certain you are mistaken. The situation becomes different if you so much as looked at your OSS projects during work hours, but the projects you work on in your free time are yours.

This is similar to how your FT employer can't keep you from taking up another part time job on the weekends.

You make two skeleton templates: One for full documents, one that has nothing in it except the parts that change (say, the meta > title, the body > main and the body > header > nav parts) each wrapped in a hx-swap-oob.

Nihilism is a nuanced concept that many great thinkers have grappled with but "web forum nihilism" isn't. Internet nihilism usually just reads like someone who is suffering from some sort of depressive or anxiety disorder and expressing their symptoms, like catastrophization, over the 'net.

What I submit is that we are living in a society with a record level of depression, anxiety and other mental illnesses (the US for example is prescribing record levels of antidepressants). This record level of mental illness is simply spilling over onto the Internet. Why so many people in our society are ill is left as an exercise for the reader.

Depends on what you're looking to get out of it but it could definitely be helpful. If you have a specific focus you can probably find a book that better expands on that specific topic. The books three titled sections are Work, Love, The Brain and the Body.

A lot of the principles outlined in the book are basically around the concept that you should learn these going into your 20's and apply them right away instead of applying them in your 30's from what I remember. It's been a few years since I've read the book though so I might be a little off.

I'm happy to give other suggestions as best I can if you're curious.
