If you ask a Meta employee this you’ll no doubt get some internal structural / political justification, and they’ll say it to you with a straight face.

Let’s also all think back to 2011 or so when Facebook thought it’d be a good idea to try to vacuum up all its users’ emails by giving us all @facebook.com email addresses, buying fb.com in the process. As I recall they killed it after a couple few years.
clojure does not have lazy evaluation of any form. “lazy sequences” are a hack, clojure core uses macros to thunkify sequence traversal in userland. this hack interacts badly with a few other aspects of clojure because clojure itself is not lazy, being that it is a hosted language designed to lightly cover the host platform (Java, JS, .NET, Dart) and maximize host ecosystem compatibility and therefore does not alter core platform semantics such as concurrency model or evaluation model.

Now I jaywalk all the time, but let's not call it simply "walking in a public place". It has safety implication. It's dangerous for you, and it can also endanger / have severe implications on other people who haven't asked anything. Road safety is no joke and should not be taken lightly.

It's the combination of company URL, posted by a company person, commented on by another company person pushing questions (i.e. generate engagement) that seemed weird, and feels orchestrated.

> You can't deploy a new library to close a library security hole, for programs that have statically linked it.

Of course you can. You just recompile affected programs. Just like you need to do in the case of header-only C/C++ libraries like much of widely-used Boost. And if the library is not strictly header-only, but still has significant code in headers, as is often the case in C++, if you only swap the dynamic library, the program is still broken, or much more likely: it becomes broken, even though it originally wasn’t.

I wrote more about this sort of thing here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37278222 and urge anyone who thinks arbitration is 'fair' to read https://www.epi.org/publication/the-arbitration-epidemic/

Some highlights
- Employee win rates in mandatory arbitration are much lower than in either federal court or state court, with employees in mandatory arbitration winning only just about a fifth of the time (21.4 percent), which is 59 percent as often as in the federal courts and only 38 percent as often as in state courts

- Differences in damages awarded are even greater, with the median or typical award in mandatory arbitration being only 21 percent of the median award in the federal courts and 43 percent of the median award in the state courts

- average outcome in mandatory arbitration is only 16 percent of that in the federal courts and 7 percent of that in state courts

- The mandatory arbitration–litigation gap in outcomes has a direct effect on the ability of individual workers to recover compensation for the injuries they have suffered.

- ""The fact that it is not worth the expense involved in proving a statutory remedy does not constitute the elimination of the right to pursue that remedy.""

While this relates to employee vs employer arbitration - similar effects apply to consumer arbitration.

mandatory arbitration and class-action waivers are two of the most pernicious terms allowed in modern contracts of adhesion and must be fixed.

Yes, of course this is related to the physical properties of the emissions, but LoRa uses specific frequencies of the ISM band (868 MHz in Europe), and this discussion was about the reasons why that specific LoRa transmission worked even though there wasn't a line of sight. Airplanes could be an explanation, although your sibling comment thinks there isn't sufficient transmission power for it to be feasible.

Hey all Ivan the founder here, love to hear your thoughts.
The attitude is not selfish.

Standing by nodding while your government provides weapons, propaganda and conducts other immoral actions with their immorally extracted wealth from those all around you, is selfish. Why do you condone theft? You wouldn't think it was OK if those around you stole, or is a corporation stole, but it's OK that the government does it.... How? Which other mafia protection rackets do you like?

Put simply, if it is not voluntary, if it is forced, it cannot be justified, regardless of how the party doing the forcing justifies of actions. It doesn't matter how many people are doing the forcing, what they call themselves, how many books they write to justify their actions (law, civics), how must they tell you it's for the greater good, etc. To think it is right is to suffer from Stockholm syndrome - you are justifying your abuser's actions. You wouldn't think it was alright for a husband to take his wife's money, or boss not to pay his workers, or a neighbour to take money from the old couple next door... so why do you think it's OK that government does this?

People are confused - this is not a political issue it is a moral one. Politics ought to come after we agree the morals. It is fine for people to form free, voluntary associations, build roads or whatever. It is not right to force this association, and it can never be made right. It is wrong. Stealing, initiating violence, threatening violence is wrong. Might is not right, and can never be made right.

> glibc has very good backward compatibility, with careful symbol versioning and whatnot.

Not in my experience. Working through exercises in Practical Binary Analysis, the first problem I needed to solve was running programs compiled against an older glibc on older Ubuntu on a new Ubuntu version with newer glibc, which boiled down to hunting down the glibc so from the older Ubuntu. Without it, the programs crashed on startup. That problem wasn’t even planned by the book author, but it sure was a good thematic fit. :)

> Sure. What I'm really talking about is the modern ensemble of smartphone, social networks and app-centric economy. In 2007 they were still mainly "just phones".

That was already there in 2010. There was a Cambrian explosion of apps in 2008/2009, and Apple ran the “there’s an app for that” campaign in 2009/2010. Facebook was there on day one and there were multiple Twitter clients. Instagram launched as a picture-focused, iPhone-only social network in late 2010.
You can learn these skills in "safe space" environments like TryHackMe.

No, LoRa can run on two bands in Europe, either EU433 from 433.05 to 434.79 MHz or EU863 from 863 to 870 MHz.

Not just a run of the mill drama affair, it's a nuclear-grade scandal which will generate another MeToo phenomenon.

"For the folks at home, the story I was working on was going to be published by the Daily Beast in Spring 2024. Everything was in place then we had to go to both Wikipedia and the National Archives for comment, as required by law. Archvies wouldn't speak to us and Wikipedia threatened to sue, I suspect because of what we had found out about their administrators. The piece had mainly been about administrator abuse, using tools on Wikipedia to trace ip addresses, dox people's identities then harass them in real life. The Oberranks clusterf*k was a big part of the story, but not the entire story. The real beef of the article was about female editors on their site being stalked and even assaulted after having their identities revealed online by administrators. I found several cases of that including a woman who was stabbed outside her home in Mexico City by a stalker who had researched who she was off of her Wikipeida profile.

Daily Beast backed out because of the lawsuit threat, but I still have the whole story and might one day sell the rights. For now, its back to Eastern Europe covering real news."

many problems seem to have the property that it's easier to verify a solution than to come up with one. If someone provides a filled-out sudoku puzzle, it's relatively straightforward to check if they've followed the rules and completed it correctly. However, actually solving the puzzle from scratch requires a different kind of thinking and might take more time.
"Structure from motion" refers to the process of reconstructing camera poses and a sparse point cloud from a set of images (or video). That's the input to the scene reconstruction process described in this paper.

As far as I know, the basic approach to SfM hasn't changed much in the last decade or so. It boils down to image feature extraction (using something like SIFT feature vectors), then a heuristic matching process, then bundle adjustment and outlier rejection.
Thanks for sharing! After all the effort invested, and our first clients onboarded, we are really excited to finally go public.

Sure but wget has a -D option to specify transitioning to other domains.

So my command was actually something more like wget -m -D download.damieng.com,damieng.com -A .zip https://damieng.com/typography/zx-origins/

But it still wouldn't download the .zip files. I think this is one case where wget should, on paper, be superior to curl.

You think I'm making a political point. I'm making a moral point - that stealing, initiating force, threatening force are wrong, and cannot be made right regardless of how one tries to dress it up. A wrong cannot be turned into a right. Government is based on immoral actions and lies. This cannot be avoided.

People however suffer from Stockholm syndrome and want to defend their abusers, so mine is not a popular opinion.

>If such a crackpot idea is compatible with hard determinism, then that’s a blow for the latter.

Is it really? I don't think compatibility with a crackpot idea/thing brings a blow to an orthogonal idea.

For example, I could believe that Mars is an alien base. This is crackpot, but it doesn't give any blow to countless other ideas it's compatible with, e.g. economic or social theories, gravity, explanations of historical eras, etc.

No, not in inscriptions! (Even though inscriptions did in fact use length markers, there’s the superlong I for example.) When we transcribe actual Latin text we make some changes.

The actual inscriptions use heavy abbreviations, which we resolve in our text. And then we also disambiguate V into v and u. And as a bonus we often add the length markers.

So we do inscription -> cleaned Latin text.

And the cleaned text is given to students.

The point is that while both ChatGPT and Copilot are powered by the same model, they are different products, and one can be useful for one task where the other isn't. Just because someone doesn't find ChatGPT useful doesn't mean they can't find Copilot useful, since there are differences between the two products even if they are powered by the same model.
