Your definition of loyalty sounds like it's more loyalty to yourself/your own values or an idealized/rose-tinted view of the company from the past rather than loyalty to what the company is at the present time, which is always a moving target of course.

I interpreted their notion of loyalty as like a sort of trust that things will work out in the end, "maybe this is just a rough patch", etc.

Re: neglect, I think there's a more subtle gradient there. Lets say your company decided to implement a dumbass policy X, and you rail against it, but since it's highly popular it's like you're pissing against the wind. So you kind of resign yourself to it's inevitability and make a long bet that it's going to fail. This is in the hopes of a brighter future where it has already failed and been replaced with something better. You might even make decisions during this time that set you up to be better positioned for when it does eventually fail. This is a kind of negative semi-passivity, but it's only negative in the sense that you're betting against something that you think is a bad idea and you're trying to improve your position within that potential better future after the bad thing is gone.

That's not strictly the same thing as sabotage which would require malicious actions on your part to undermine the effort. You don't even need to hope that it fails, you can just make impartial/rational decisions to prepare for it's eventual downfall without being heavily emotionally invested in that same downfall. And on top of that, you could rationalize all of that as setting the company up for future success after it gets through this rough patch, so it's not all about self-interest.

E: There's a famous chess saying that comes to mind, "never interrupt your opponent while they are making a mistake". Not sure about it's applicability here, but it feels like a similar kind of mindset.
Laravel Livewire is… frustrating. I used it for 1-2 years and ended up learning Elixir so I could use LiveView instead.

Livewires performance is terrible for anything other than very basic components. The fact that it has to rebuild state on every interaction makes it a pretty poor tool for most use cases.
It's what I was familiar with, and it works great. That doesn't mean I can't be swayed by something better though. What features make you choose certmagic over autocert?
They got bought by an ad company, and have mainly been investing in ads and the 17th render pipeline internally so you can see where this is going: always on internet to deliver UHDQSRP ads
One way to see Asimov's "infinity of wrongness" is perhaps as a fractal. You could view the bulbs in the mandelbrot as being a kind of knowledge, and the "main bulb" occupying the majority of the area belonging to the set as the set of truths known about our universe. The mandelbrot set is infinite in complexity, however its area is finite and bounded!

Or as ironing out the wrinkles on a great big t-shirt, where each wrinkle is sub-wrinkled with smaller wrinkles and so on. We've "ironed out" the biggest wrinkles, there are infinitely more but they are much smaller. We're perhaps over half-way ironed, in a quantitative sense.
> many codec cannot be easily made in such way because memory allocation can occur here and there.

This is an extremely vague complaint and thus suspicious. Of course we could imagine an image format which decides to allow you to declaratively construct cloud servers which transmit XML and so it needs DRM to protect your cloud service credentials - but I claim (and I feel like most people will agree) the fact WUFFS can't do that is a good thing and we should not use this hypothetical "image" format aka massive security hole.

Try specifics. This is a WebP bug. For a WebP codec, where does it need memory allocation? My guess is it does allocations only during a table creation step, and after it figures out how big the final image is. So, twice, in specific parts of the code, like JPEG.
The enshittification of tiktok is almost complete. The famed recommendation algorithm that would figure out and show you want is there but it doesn't generate money. At this point, it is the exploitation phase of the users.

They are different religions with different beliefs and practices. The architectural differences are vast and mostly obvious the minute you walk in. Mosques and churches both have a number of unique elements like the mihrab, confessional booths, pews, floor carpets, altars, and so on and so forth. These all translate into vastly different experiences both during worship and in everyday life. For example, Catholic churches have confessional booths facilitating confessions to priests. Mosques don’t, as (as far as I know) Muslims believe more in direct confession to God, not to an intermediary. You can see how this would result in a different social structure.

The experience of attending mosque on Friday is quite different from Sunday mass. This is intra-religion as well; compare a New England church with St. Peter’s in Rome, for example.

Sure, there are some similarities, but this is such a broad distinction that I question its usefulness, and dividing the world into secular and religious (architecture) is a very recent phenomenon. Saying they all are basically the same is to miss millennia of culture.

Anyway I don’t mean to be hostile or critical here, I just think religious architecture is pretty fascinating and has a much bigger effect on culture, even supposedly secular culture, than people realize. I encourage anyone interested to read more about it.
This article explains a phenomenon I've been observing with growing uneasiness that I couldn't quite put my finger on till now.

Which is basically the number of laws I've seen popping up (more especially in the UK and Aus) wherein they don't provide a specific set of criteria or requirements that a person (or more often a corporation) must meet to be in violation of a law or statue but instead empower a body or office to "regulate", "manage", or "investigate" certain issues or affairs. Without specifying criteria or specific actions that would trigger the decision making of the office in question, thus leaving it entirely to the elected official or buearacat's judgement.

I noticed this a couple of years ago where when there was some law around social media being proposed in the Australia where it set out just a minimum revenue value for a company and then left it up to the discretion of the minister of communication.or something like that.

The reason this worries me so much is because one of the foundational cornerstones of western civilization has been the rule of law. Wherein there was a law set forth that set forth specific actions that are allowed or prohibited, e.g. "Don't murder", and everyone knew them and was held accountable to them, it didn't matter how horrible you were or how much evil lurked in your heart or boardroom, what mattered was did you break law X,Y or Z.

However this trend towards delegating power and decision making to an individual office or committee is an abandonment of this principle in favor of a return to rule by individuals who decide at their whim whether to allow or prohibit a thing, where by simply being in favor with certain bureaucrats one can be immune from accountability where politically unpopular targets can be harassed by the state without end simply because they are not politically favored.

It is terrifying and frightening to me that we are choosing to abandon the rule of law in favor of a return to the days where the king and priests would arbitrarily be able to make their divine decrees to punish their foes and exalt their friends.
I do think that the best way to enforce validation rules is with a logic-paradigm language executed both during compile and run times. That would technically be a dependent type system, but with a bias of allowing runtime verification, instead of trying to prove everything at compile time.
Worth considering that they can use access to your email to get into other accounts. Someone getting into my Google photos account would definitely affect the privacy of others for instance.

Though I think the way to defend against this is dead man switches for services with sensitive data, not using gmail
Monthly is in regards to how Unity invoices, the fee is per-install.
Yeah, the case that interest me is mobile games with a high install/revenue ratio. If I install a popular game, try it out for 3 minutes, and decide it's not for me, then am I costing some indie developer $0.20 even though there's no revenue?

My guess is that the answer there is in this bit: "Qualifying customers may be eligible for credits toward the Unity Runtime Fee based on the adoption of Unity services beyond the Editor, such as Unity Gaming Services or Unity LevelPlay mediation for mobile ad-supported games. This program enables deeper partnership with Unity to succeed across the entire game lifecycle. Please reach out to your account manager to learn more."

My guess is that as long as Unity is getting a slice of your ads, you don't have to worry about per-install fees. So this may be more about driving free-to-play mobile devs to use their ad services.

Depending on how the legalese is worded, we might also see the comeback of demo versions and paid versions. So the free version has lots of installs but zero revenue, and the $0.20 bite only comes out of things you're charging for.
Where’s the beef? There’s no data. No evaluation of how well the model does. They’re also going to limit themselves to just the pandemic period (which is probably a very biased time period in the stock market).
But they might know why you are wearing the headset.
iPhone 12 pro, upgraded 2 years ago from an iPhone 7. I treat my phone like an appliance, there really aren't compelling reasons to upgrade frequently anymore. I'm not on it much, don't do social apps. I usually by used phones and use an MVNO otherwise the costs are nearly as much as a small used car payment.

Why Apple? I'm not a fanboi but really the JustWorks™ thing has a lot of truth behind it with the hardware. Outside of the Apple OSes the only real app from them I use consistently is iMessage. Sure I could probably go all-in on Google's hardware just as easily but making the switch at this point would be too much effort, little reward and I'm lazy. I used to game on Windows and build PCs, even built a Linux MythTV box years ago. I just want my stuff to work, I don't want to waste time tinkering since I have other interests.
> who actually went to business school for management.

Are these actually good? Sometimes I feel like education has such a large disconnect from reality. Especially true in corporate fields. There is also the meme of MBAs showing up and ruining everything. I also went to business school for undergrad, idk if any of it is useful. though it was a while ago now
A deep dive on Solana, a high performance blockchain network
Again, just take a look at the postulates: Schrödinger equation describes the unitary time evolution of the system under a given Hamiltonian, wavefunction collapse describes the outcome of the non-unitary measurement process.

The outcome distribution of a measurement is described by the Born rule, the collapse postulate on the other hand tells us that the wave function will change to the actually measured state. Related but not the same.

For the state |0> + |1> (unnormalized) the Born rule tells us that a measurement will yield |0> or |1> with 50 % probability each. The collapse postulate tells us that the state will change from |0> + |1> to either |0> or |1> depending on the measurement outcome.

This change is non-unitary and therefore incompatible with the Schrödinger equation which tells us that quantum systems evolve unitarily. If you want, consider the combined quantum system of the system under investigation and the measurement device, why should that system not evolve unitarily?

Is they're cranking out that many sales and games is $2100 unfair?
It might be a good idea to keep it at least one year under the limit that registrars set. If you ever want to move to a different registrar, you usually have to add (and pay for) an additional year, and you can't do that if you're at the max (often 10). I recommend 9 years.
One might plausibly assert that while the particulars of the universe may be infinite, the fundamental rules which govern the universe are finite and thus at least in principle entirely knowable. While I don't think the 20th century makes an air tight case for the latter, I think it isn't an unreasonable conclusion to draw from 20th Century Physics either.
In your presumed case the studio would already be breaking Unity’s terms to be using Personal or Plus as companies making over $200,000 in the last 12 months need to have Pro subscriptions! Dunno how flouted that is though.

I feel it's a lot like looking at art. If you're happy with dogs playing poker painted on velvet then that's good for you, but I'm looking for something a little more satisfying. If your customers are happy with dogs playing poker painted on velvet then that's doubly good for you.
This is what I was looking for. I used to use React/NextJS/Vue in the past, and the major gripe with that stack was the weight of the node_modules and the ever broken situation, every other week. I wish Blazor evolves a bit better with the Blazor United approach, and have some great support for the modern UI libraries.
No, the table header says “monthly rate” of .20 per install. Eg 10 installs is 2$ a month
I'm not sure how important the physical ports were, if they were important I suspect it mainly their symbolic importance.

Tinfoil hat in me says that T-Mobile has a real bad problem with their internal tooling allowing low level employees access that facilitates these sort of attacks. They claim social engineering because that allows them to blame a specific employee being "tricked" rather than a more widespread issue.

This type of stuff is why I canceled my account with them. It just keeps happening.
I've been eyeing out UnrealCLR, it looks really promising!
They will most likely use hardware ID to track installs. So if you reinstall the game on the same machine it won't count, if you install it on a different one it will. Unless they let you bind it to some internal ID and track it that way.
Because they can more easily track the former than the latter? The latter would be show me your books.
"We are introducing a Unity Runtime Fee that is based upon each time a qualifying game is downloaded by an end user. We chose this because each time a game is downloaded, the Unity Runtime is also installed."

This reads as something insane. If a player replays a game on steam, redownloads it, the developer still pays for the installation? I know people who redownload games all the time, like tens of times over the span of several years. I hope it's imprecise language and only the initial install/download is counted.

I hope these changes (whatever they actually are) won't push game developers towards developing games that milk users more, with loot boxes, in-game currency, cosmetics etc, and away from stand alone you-pay-once games, single player or multiplayer, only to be able to pay for the ongoing engine fees.

Yes in the sense that it gives you a mouse/keyboard windowed experience instead of a touch-optimized one with a mouse cursor.

You also still get to use the phone/tablet at the same time while it's driving the desktop.

Of course you're still using Android apps, just inside of resizable, movable windows, and not all apps behave well or work as well with mouse/keyboard as you might like.

But you can install linux shells, remote desktop apps, etc, and basically just use it as a thin-client.

There's also a way you can use Dex inside of a window on Windows and it let you drive your phone without actually touching it or doing some weird remote access stuff to your phone.

Dex is kind of a hidden gem of the Samsung devices. Once you hook up a dock with some I/O it's basically just turns your Android device into a desktop computer.

I'm really worried about a time when lessons are made by neural networks and we miss the small lies they tell.
Yeah, right, that's exactly why we need to kill v6 and create the next version of IP - it's obviously going to happen faster this time.
Russia’s Putin praises Elon Musk as an ‘outstanding person’
I mean, we know why. It's been co-opted by toxic male communities and is being bastardized by people who twist it to justify them being assholes.

It is interesting though that Stoicism has this problem but Buddhism doesn't, even though they have similar ideals and concepts.
It just gives some error like "this login method is not allowed for this action" or similar.
I’ve heard this charge that empathy is incompatible with Stoicism (or Buddhism) somewhat often but I don’t see it myself.

Passion, on the other hand, I understand.
Sigh. There are three major camps with Ruby.

- Plain Old Ruby (The original.)

- Rails (Ruby++)

- Functional Programming (dry-rb and friends)

I find it really hard to sympathize with the functional programming crowd. They are trying really hard to make Ruby into something it isn't suited for. They committing many of the same "sins" as ActiveSupport by creating a large superset of the language. (Only bolted on instead of integrated.) The end result is having an awkward interface between their code and everyone else's. Similar to how jRuby feels.

What they really want is a different programming language with a ruby-like syntax with a massive standard library and many third-party libraries.
I’m glad he decided to invent an English Literature correspondent to pick on, and also the 1990s was a better society than one that votes to poison a disliked person.
I don't think modals are very usable for forms, especially if the form is big – it risks somebody spending a lot of time filling out the form and then closing the modal by accident. I would much prefer a `/resource/[new|edit]`
The thing is: soft skills aren't that needed at the entry level. I've noticed that no one cares that I trained a lot of soft skills by doing a psych bachelor, an honors program based on soft skills, hundreds of hours of meditation.

They just want to know:

- Can you code according to the requirements of the business?

Sometimes soft skills are needed for that, but not nearly to the level that I trained them at. So, the skills languish. I might get picked up to become a manager at some point and they might be relevant again, I'll retrain them. For now though, I've noticed my soft skills aren't that relevant. My ability to code and push features out as fast as possible (with good code quality) is.
It's amazing the amount of people who dismiss current findings by claiming we were wrong in the past, so nothing can be trusted.
You can still send through commercial services. My own email is received through Cloudflare (which does forwarding with SRS) and sent via Amazon SES (a paid service, but pennies per month for manual, personal email).

Deliverability and blacklists are their problem.

We might switch to Tauri someday. Death-by-a-thousand-cuts is a very serious risk for us though, so we're trying to choose the most mature and widely-used tools whenever possible.

As noted on our website, we still have a lot of work to do on security (including some open issues you could probably tackle! and thanks for expressing interest!!) so it will be a wonderful day when Electron's lag in staying up to date with Chrome security fixes is our most pressing security issue!

In the meantime, if Signal chooses Electron that is a good indicator that, all things considered, it is a good choice for us. They have a lot more resources than us, are much farther along than we are, and they take security seriously.

One immediate issue with Tauri, just to give an example, is that it would require us to worry about Safari quirks on Mac.

I've also heard from projects in our space that the handling of platform-specific functionality outside the browser window is not as mature in Tauri as it is in Electron. This is totally understandable and Tauri is a great project with great goals, but the possibility of running into some deal-breaker Windows-specific issue, say, is scary.

Anyone else miss XNA?

There's MonoGame, but man, it's really a mess, they're still using Microsoft.XNA.Game;

And I always have a hell of a time getting it hooked into Visual Studio.

Recently started a C# project that renders using DirectX onto Windows SDK window.

Hopefully I can continue along with that.
I've actually been writing an engine in JS (with the exception of physics in WASM) partly to understand the implications of doing it.

You do need to be disciplined, however, being able to simply start extending random instances of other types proves remarkably useful when developing.

I'm not sure such a thing would work well on a team.

Interesting concept to handle missing data using Trinary decision trees. At a high-level, it seems reminiscent of Multiple Imputation in randomForests which could address missingness. Though the Trinary tree takes a different approach by not presuming the missing values harbor any significant information about the response. It's intriguing that it shines in MCAR settings, but falls short with Informative Missingness.

> "Notably, the Trinary tree outperforms its peers in MCAR settings, especially when data is only missing out-of-sample, while lacking behind in IM settings."

This somewhat mirrors the behavior of early imputation strategies. One must ponder, however, how the Trinary tree would perform vis-a-vis older methods like CART's surrogate splits or C4.5's probabilistic splits for handling missing values. These older methods were crafted with an intuition somewhat similar to the Trinary tree.

It's also great to see the amalgamation of Trinary tree with the Missing In Attributes approach into the TrinaryMIA tree. But the efficacy of this hybrid model isn't completely surprising. MIA has historically shown resilience in diverse missing data scenarios, and combining that with the Trinary's approach could harmonize their strengths.

What would be really enticing is to see if the essence of the Trinary decision tree can be injected into boosting models like XGBoost or LightGBM. Since these models are notorious for their treatment of missing values, maybe there's some potential symbiosis there?
It's not that hard, also Elixir is basically gradually typed with dialyzer. It's not like working on a dynamic and weakly typed lang like vanilla JavaScript or Perl at all.

I do want to clear something up. Elixir is strongly typed, but its not statically typed.

More here: https://www.educative.io/answers/statically-v-dynamically-v-...

Even for langs that are statically/ and strongly typed on the BEAM (like Gleam, whose type system is similar to that of Standard ML or OCaml) still subscribe to the "Let is Crash" philosophy, especially when it comes to messages sent and received between processes. The only thing that is guaranteed is your system will fail at some point, how should the system protect its self form that?

https://www.educative.io/courses/concurrent-data-processing-...

In short, its not like working with Ruby or JavaScript or Python, etc..
