52% of the electorate voted for Brexit, that's hardly 'no one'. As for nothing right being done, we've been dealing with a pandemic and a war which have cause an inflationary and energy crisis. But our economic growth in the same period has been higher than Germany and on Par with France, with much lower unemployment.

What have the disasters of Brexit been?
I'm a big fan of the statue of liberty idea. I'm surprised nobody making copper statues puts either a lacquer on them, or some sort of sacrificial anode. (if that's even possible for copper)

I assume the green look is preferable.
Apparently, the old community need to literary die with their old habits for new to take place. There is no amount of good argumentation that can be fruitful here. And there is tone of it, pwsh is simply on another level then existing combos.

> you can go into the woods, hunt and fish, and build your own shelter. as long as you're not breaking laws, you'll be fine.

That's a big no-go in almost all European nations. Fishing and hunting is always regulated, requiring permit and all the bureaucracy leading up to that.

Not an option for most - if any - nation on earth.

That's neither what syndicalism proposes nor what I talked about.
jq is a tool that is so powerful and useful it really should be made part of the POSIX standard. It should come with everything preinstalled. It’s an amazing tool like that of an earlier more refined age.

I have one serious issue that I haven't seen mentioned before.

Wouldn't this open up a giant legal loophole for people to claim that ther CSAM is "just Ai generated"?

Yes, mandatory watermarking could be considered a solution ...but it still introduces a giant layer of doubt.
If people really want to do something, they find reasons / excuses. And if people want to really believe something, thebdo so too. The latter quite often leads to BS conspiracy theories. The former to false flag operations, lies, propaganda and very real conspiracies (the Suez Crisis comes to mind).
Key material aside, such a coredump could give some hints towards someone else’s capabilities, and point you in an interesting direction for finding new and exciting ways to own more shit.
Super cool! Great work on making it fast and having clear benchmarks.

MPs got worried they'd lose access to WhatsApp and Signal which most of them use for private communication, so they had to back out of the changes.

Interesting that it didn't get proper web connectivity until 1995 - they may even have been behind compuserve on that!

Also I love how this write-up ends at 1998. Yet here we are 25 years later https://www.aol.com still exists, you can still sign up for an email address, though at this point it is more or less just a brand that's been passed around between owners quite a bit.

The last contact I had with the org was in the mid 00s when I knew some people who worked in their London office, producing portal content. It was weird even then, in 2005, because from the outside, Aol had been dead for years...

I guess a bit like the time I met some people from Myspace in a bar in London in about 2010 (IIRC). "We work at Myspace" and when they saw everyone look bemused "yeah, we know!"
Any not-designed-specifically-for-shell language will suck for shell, more or less. Ruby, python, node, whatever, they all have the same problem - you write stuff too much and care about stuff you shouldn't care while in shell.
There are aliases, you can name things with a letter if you want. There are even good ones OTB.
Dumb, but it's fun hearing it from the other side.

If you ever make a "Haskell is bad because it doesn't use state but the real world uses state" argument, this is what you sound like.

Not exactly, Prettier is a far more opinionated formatter than Eslin will ever be. As far as I know, Eslint can't format one line into multiple lines, and vice versa. Whether that's desirable or not is up to the you, of course.
Stop paying for things then.

Cut everything, and I do mean everything down to the bone.

Fire half of all government employees in every ministry tomorrow. Then a year from now fire half of the ones that are left. Stop hiring for the next 5 years.

Then stop providing any services that do not involve foreign relations/military/most public infrastructure.

Yes, I'm talking all those licensing requirements, NHS, welfare, etc... Eliminate them all tomorrow.

I can assure you that 10 years from now when the government is 1/10th of what it is today things will still be running.

I don’t know which country you live in. If it’s Russia or China for example, then yeah, I’m sorry, you don’t get a real say.

But if it’s a democracy, then you can always go start a political party yourself if nobody else has taken up this cause.

In most countries, voters don’t seem to love the idea of eliminating funding for arts and sciences. It’s a very small part of the total budget for any state, and it tends to have appeal that connects with the purpose of having a nation in the first place (“who’s going to make movies in our language if we don’t?”)
This perspective might be true for the Europeans and north Americans, but
by the same ( imho stretched ) reasoning the Franco-German War lead to the downfall of colonial empires and therefore liberated significant parts of the world.
Seconded, have never run across that word in all my reading.
The power company has an obligation to protect their employees from being injured if you are transmitting power onto the line when the line is supposed to be deactivated. They also have an obligation to prevent you from transmitting power at the wrong voltage or frequency, in case that harms their equipment or other customers.

I don't see a material difference here between that and what YouTube has done in this case.
>"The OpenAI version is even more grotesque because it seems to imply a small group will survive at the expense of the rest of us."

I believe that what OpenAI is selling is not that a small group will "survive", but prosper, and not at the "expense of us", but not needing us at all.

Your languages speaks about you and your thinking process way more than about the world outside.

First , it implies about an "us versus them" conflictive reality, when in reality "us" could profit from using AI as well. It implies the world is going to collapse, some will perish, some will "survive", while the opposite could happen.

>What they created was the theft of humanities ideas.

Could ideas be "stolen"? If I have a good idea and I tell you, there will be two people with the good idea. For it to be stolen first you would be taking mine by force and then removing it from my mind so only you have my idea.

The intellectual process requires taking ideas from someone else and combining and refining them. Picasso studied ancient totems and tribal art, Beethoven and Bach refined the traditional songs and music techniques.
Even if it happens in the browser, the content is being shown on your domain, so good luck explaining that.

Ha, that reminds me of one of my first useful programs. In the early days of the internet my dad picked up a internet contract which allowed you to dial in on a toll free number; it was pretty cheap per month but the only catch was while dialled in they displayed a banner along the top of the screen with advertising. Using the win32 API in VB I was able to find the handle to the window kill it.

The only problem then was that tying up the land line constantly got on my mum's nerves, being back in the days before land line numbers were redundant for other reasons.

Germany will have around 12 GW new solar power installed in 2023 (with about 1/4th of the US population), so a little bit more per capita than the US. It is important to know that almost all of Germany is more to the north than the most northern parts of the US (except Alaska), so solar power in Germany is much less efficient and in winter almost completely useless.
This is not 70s cost of renewables has gone down drastically.

Actually She is written in Haskell too, but that's ok, due to lazy evaluation (of Haskell and of God) mutually recursive definitions pose no problem.
First the war in Ukraine showed us that tanks are obsolete, not. Noe it shows us manned aircraft are obsolete, and I go out on a limb and say those are neither. A javelin doesn't replace a tank, and a dronw doesn't replace attack aircraft and helicopters. What we in the West have tonaccept so, and that is difficult for public that grew up post-Vietnam, is that even our top notch, ultra hightech military hardware can and will be destroyed in a war. And that includes everything from submarines over cruiser to aircraft carriers, from tank over helicopters to fighters and bombers. The only reason we didn't see losses there since Korea / Vietnam is kind of wars the West fought since.
Are you me? This was my exact experience back in the early 2000s when AOL expanded to Germany.
The problem is that I'm absolutely not an Android developer and the process of building images for these devices is super convoluted. I have no idea how the official builds work nor can I find any consistent documentation on exactly what I need to do in order to configure everything properly to build for my device. It seriously is a mountain of work compared to someone who already has a development environment and my ADHD says no.
This is called Knolls Law of Media Accuracy:

There are no extra security issues, because at this point you already assume that the other side is trustworthy.

I think you can assume that they are sending something like bytecode, but might optimize that, if both are eg on the same physical machine.
Hm, "rare elevator" made me assume that it must be about paternoster, but its not! The pop-out seems to refer to the buttons.
I like the minimalist design. You might want to more clearly make a visual distinction between buttons and headings in the app, now it's somewhat confusing to know where to click.

Any civics test will become a Jim Crow test and be abused to strip people of the right to vote who don't have the right color skin, or belong to the right political party, or whatever.

I agree that all politicians should need to pass a civics test, but I disagree that it should be a law. Instead, they should be laughed out of the country -- but not as a law.
Nah but really the bill wasn't bad enough for that, and honestly I'm not sure that kind of PR move was very common before social media days (total guess). I just remember it because I had to give my parents the difference and as a 12-13 year old that £30 was a lot!
My way of using ChatGPT is just to ask it to give me some complicated sed/awk command, and then I can usually understand easily if the command is correct, or easily look it up. So it is very good for learning.
The AOL story is foundational, IMO, to gain an understanding of the business.

To me, the most instructive part is the open web's triumphalism at defeating AOL.

AOL thought they could own the internet by controlling the front door... portal strategy, in the terms of the times. They expected to brute force their way to scale with expensive marketing campaigns. etc

Once the www "won," everyone knew how foolish AOL was. Information wanted to be free. Open protocols will run circles around a closed kludge. etc.

It's very 90s. A sort of peak modernism. Openness wasn't just desirable and effective... it was also inevitable. Maybe we needed to watch for network neutrality, but otherwise things would look after themselves.

Freedom isn't just better. It's so much more effective, more popular and powerful than short sighted alternatives that it is inevitable. This optimism was so powerful, we got completely blindsided a few years later.

In retrospect, AOL's strategic vision was prophetic. Their flaw was not pushing it hard enough, not having enough belief, giving up too early. Maybe they couldn't own everything, but they could have owned a lot. Even if they had just held onto the lest sophisticated users, chatrooms and news they would have been a goog/fb/amzn.

Yep I had that too :-)
It‘s a problematic logic.

These kinds of causality creations usually only work if you - like i said - leave out details, which is the moment when someone leaves the historical factual and enters the creation of histography, something that has always flourished around the french revolution.

By this logic we get a clear causality by which Napoleon gave us Hitler.

I've expected to find technical details, it's on another page - https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikidough

I don't get it. Why are they using such a complicated infrastructure for something that can just be a static file polled by devices? Let's get nifty and maybe have a small php intermediary for slow roll. Assuming 10M devices, 24h polling sounds reasonable that's 10M requests/day. A VPS should be able to handle that.

(I'm saying this as someone who managed OTA for 1M smartphones that way 10yrs ago)
Not an expert, but I think it's a mix of pollution, pesticides, habitat loss, intensive fishing, etc.

When we have energy, we just transform the world to optimize some metric (profit, comfort, etc), and transforming wild places just breaks balance and makes species disappear.
If there's one important thing that all political spectrums can agree on at the moment, it's solar. Some do it for the environemnt, some to be independent from the grid, others to save money, but PV on every roof with local batteries will win. And that's exactly why it scales _better_ than every other solution, because it needs less grid capacity and no central planning.
very interesting, thanks.
I will never understand at which point it became preferable to post an editorial written by a random journalist, which doesn't even link at all to the actual research paper. It's a proven way to propagate misrepresented science. (And no, the interview quotes are not a defense; it has also, often been the case, that the authors would carefully choose their wording to mislead public's perception.)
The most low hanging fruit for seasonal storage is most likely thermal storage connected to district heating. At least technologically, not 100% sure on economics, but given the scalability laws (heat loss scales to square and heat capacity to cube of the size of the storage), I am optimistic there as well.
or you just call them and tell them you're not able to get to an apple store so they'll have to have it collected via courier, which they've done for me several times.

Prussian imperialism was failing from 1914 when they failed to reach Paris and force France to surrender. Moltke the Younger recognised this at the time, but it took 4 years for rest of the German High Command to see it, and for the Allies to get their act together. Even if the German spring offensive in 1918 had succeeded, it would have only pushed the British Army back across the Channel, it wouldn't have stopped the British naval blockade which was crippling Germany, nor would it have stopped the build-up of US troops in France.

In any programming language where functions are allowed as arguments to functions, and most languages that are still in use allow this, you can choose lazy evaluation for any function argument. Already Algol 60 had "call-by-name", which could be used to do lazy evaluation.

The only difference in Haskell and similar languages is that lazy evaluation is the default mode of evaluation, and if you do not want this it is more difficult to make another choice.

While there is no doubt that there are certain cases when lazy evaluation is desirable, I have never seen any evidence that lazy evaluation by default is better instead of worse.

Despite lower efficiency, lazy evaluation by default may have a psychological advantage for programmers who find it easier to understand programs with lazy evaluation than programs with immediate evaluation, but neither I am one of those nor have I ever met one of those.

So, I assume that you already have a personal website, whether it's built with a Low-Code platform or fully coded. The best approach would be to check whether the same platform supports any plugins or integrations to list marketplace items. If you are using Low-Code platforms like WordPress, Wix, or Webflow, you can do this within the same platform. Alternatively, you can consider using Shopify or WooCommerce and connect it to your website. You can also list your items on platforms like https://www.buymeacoffee.com and link them to your website.

This entirely depends on what your website is built on and what your technical skills are. If you can provide more information on that, I would be happy to give you some good suggestions.
If you are saying that Steam Decks comprise nearly the entirety of Steam on Linux usage then I fully agree with you; however the number of macs in the market is so far and away larger than the number of steam decks, that the two platforms ordinarily shouldn't even be comparable.

With every new release of hardware or software that Apple makes, fewer and fewer of the existing game library on MacOS (Steam or otherwise) continue to work; it's absolutely absurd. You know you can't even play Bejeweled on a modern mac, right? How am I supposed to explain that to a widow with Alzehimers who just wants to keep playing the games she remembers? (This actually happened. I had to fucking wine-bottle the windows version myself)

Of 502 games in my Steam library only 163 will run on an Apple Silicon mac. Big kudos to the game authors who even bother anymore.
Reading “JQ” in this context makes me realize how terminally online I’ve been all these years
This is not just a nice-to-have thing, this is their project proactively running something that I did not authorize without informing me or giving me any chance to prevent it. I absolutely consider it a huge problem, not just a bug, that this functionality cannot be disabled in any way. Therefore I did not file a simple feature request for the setting because the deeper problem is that this functionality exists in the first place in a non-disableable manner.

I don't feel safe, no amount of discussion about etiquette will make me stop seeing this as a critical vulnerability that needs to be fixed, and it could take days or weeks of work for me to figure out how to compile TWRP properly if I were to fold at this point to the ten people telling me to just do it myself, which is a really stupid (imho) time investment that isn't compatible with my disabilities, sorry.
So? How is this specifically relevant to the topic at hand?

If you have someone malicious in your internal network that can connect to your Erlang nodes, you have bigger issues that them connecting to your Erlang nodes.

I don't see the point of your original comment. Having an out-of-the-box RPC mechanism means you gotta secure it as you secure any other internal service. That's sysadmin 101.
