Were you using a ‘D’ version? Like Claritin-D? I got that by accident once and my heart pounded like I was on speed. I’m highly sensitive to that stuff, same at the dentist the local anesthesia makes my heart race.

Third generation antihistamines are amazing.

Zyrtec changed my life.

I used to majorly struggle with ‘hayfever’ as we called it, to the point it ruined my summer.

I was miserable as a child, only winter gave relief as I was allergic to both tree and grass pollen.

Then zirtec came out. Originally as a prescription and that coupled with Flonase completely got rid of my symptoms without fatigue!

The old antihistamines I’d have to take so many to get help that I could barely keep my eyes open.

Then I moved to Texas from UK and the flora was completely different thus I didn’t react at all!

It was heavenly.

Then I moved to Oregon and many, many, trees and plants are the same as in the UK and my allergies came back.

Much weaker this time as a lot of people age out of these types of allergies, as my mother did.

OTC zirtec sorts it out.

Anecdotal really but I thought I’d share.
I'm in the same boat as you, thanks for asking the question in this manner because I don't even know how to describe the pickle I'm in. I know I have a lot to offer but I rarely fit a typical job description and my skills are all over the place.
It turns out that the speed of light its the limit to causality and your 'closeness' to the source is always going to matter.

Lets imagine it on a planetary scale, you have planets in this particular layout currently.

A - B - C

If planet A releases news, planet B will get the news and be able to reply to it before planet C and there no way to do anything about it unless you come up with superluminal travel.

Now, some number of months, years later as the planets orbit you can get A - C -B in which planet B would be left out.
I haven't used a USB/lighting cable for data transfer for a very very long time. Maybe 2011? It has been at least 10 years.
A great innovation. I could (and would) use this on a trip I'm taking next week.

I used to just leave a suitcase in our Japanese office. Not a great solution. Then again, you used to be able to take an intercontinental flight with no luggage, just a book, without raising suspicion. Nowadays you have to carry a decoy carry-on.
> force sale of that property

At least in the US, this is state dependent. Liens are allowed, but many states will not allow a forced sale of your primary residence.
Only thing I really don't like about my 12 and 13 minis is face ID. It is SUCH a pain to always have to bring it in front of you, or turn your head, or whatnot. Yes, it works in the dark, mostly, and yes, it's "one less thing to do" but... if I'm grabbing my phone, I'm already holding it. Putting my thumb on a button to unlock so that it's already usable by the time I bring it to my eye level saves so much time. And... by pressing the button, I'm always 'back to the home screen' instead of whatever app I was on before, or 5 pages in. Thumb on touchID button I get a faster and more consistent unlocking experience.
If you're paying to go to a fully equipped university, take all the laboratory based courses in natural sciences that you can. That can be by selecting an appropriate minor or by loading up on those courses as electives. (Assuming you aren't already majoring in the natural sciences.)

There is a wealth of material available online for self-study in many disciplines. But you aren't going to be able to download a mass spectrometer after you graduate, so take advantage of those well equipped labs while you can.
simple: there is no such set.
While more verbose, XML is pretty clear. In what environment(s) are people messing with config files so much that the format is a productivity issue?
Anecdata taken.

How did I mix up megabits and megabytes? I mentioned a 5 gb file transferring at the same speeds takes a minute or so. That tracks with your 30 gb:5 minute calculation.
When running you use "-ngl" to specify how many layers are uploaded to the GPU
probably not. Any 30 unit building is probably in too urban an area for Starlink to be competitive with fiber.
Its wild that if I buy a game and install it on my desktop, laptop, and steam deck the developer could get charged 3 times. It makes absolutely no sense.

> Could I bankrupt a dev by continuously re-installing their game on Steam?

I'm wondering this too. How long until there's a script to uninstall/reinstall a game in a big 'ole loop to game the system and rack up some charges?
I'm all ears. I was "in the room" from 2019 on. Can't name one art model you could run on your GPU from a FAANG or OpenAI before SD, and can't name one LLM with public access before ChatGPT, much less weights available till LLaMA 1.

But please, do share.
everyone says they want the small phone, yet the "PRO" devices sell like hot bread.

numbers don't lie.

I would prefer a small phone too . but we're just a drop in the ocean compared to the people who want the big flashy phones
static analysis | filters | sql_db ## done that

this reads running binaries and gets link symbols? linux
This is my dream computing experience. No laptop, no desktop, just your phone and you plop it on a dock with maybe an external SSD and GPU for games. I feel the cloud could even enable this to some degree but that feels kind of gross. It would be so cool to have something like this though.
Relevant to latest news on unity licensing change, how big a delta is there between unity and godot? I imagine it’s huge but curious as not all the unity games I see seem to require a powerful game engine like unity.
Reminds me of Ep 123 of Darknet Diaries.
I agree with the decision and in principle absolutely agree with what you are saying about our laws.

But you're oversimplifying the case here. They weren't complaining that the law was being published, they were complaining that their standards were published. The court agreed with PR that once those standards were incorporated into law, they were subject to fair use publication under the auspices of making available and explaining our laws to the public.

The courts agreed and here we are. But as another user wrote, this wasn't about copyrighting the law, it was about the inclusion of copyrighted material in the law and whether or not it fell under a different category with regards to fair use.

I'm sure I'm oversimplifying or missing something too, but I, who am generally opposed to how copyright is currently handled in the US, can see that there is more nuance to this case than your post admits to.
Because it’s an extra runtime check vs a direct lua call
(1) I think there's pretty wide agreement that selling Sudafed PE is worse than selling nothing at all, and I'd sort of expect it to be off the shelves sometime soon (it should have been much earlier than this).

(2) "Selling nothing at all" is actually not the policy. Real Sudafed is simply a behind-the-pharmacy-counter drug. You don't need a script to get it (plenty of non-abusable drugs do require scripts, a much higher bar). Real Sudafed is to a first approximation available to everybody.
Bwahaha.

I own an iPhone dude. I’ve used Mac’s for decades (alongside Linux and Windows machines).

Calling a spade a spade isn’t zealotry. Refusing to see the obvious is…. Something though.
Wow that's ugly, particularly the part about hiding the change in the repo history.
You can't fight a war against inanimate objects. You can fight a war against drug addicts. You cannot possibly win a war against drug addicts without addressing the fundamental problem.
Question: Why can't this be done for the entire industry like it is for the on-set crew?
I work in an a shop where Kafka and Avro are everywhere. If I worked someone else I might make reference to something else if it was front-of-mind all the time.
Why would the CIA be investigating COVID origin? Is this like the time a bunch of scientists discussing COVID origins internally said "well we don't really have good evidence either way but it's probably natural origin" and certain news sources screamed that they were internally suppressing the lab leak theory?
The Dutch take this to the extreme, where the actually effective anti-cough medication dextromethorphan is completely unavailable, but complete bullshit herbal mixes which claim to help are a dime a dozen on every store shelf. I can't even imagine the amount of needless suffering people with chronic cough go through in the Netherlands.
I never thought I'd see Musks destruction of Twitter be beaten, this is unreal.
Community is a chicken-and-egg problem. I started my own Lemmy server to try to contribute and hold some space for discussion, but if you just want to start a community, it's as easy as making a new account on https://lemmy.world and clicking Create a Community on the front page.
Ion is heavily used on the retail side of Amazon, but it's only recently started to appear in AWS products.

AWS is starting support PartiQL (https://partiql.org/) queries in some places and PartiQL uses Ion's type system internally.
Simutf is designed for performance. The function is designed for you to provide a buffer of sufficient length. It will return the number of bytes it actually needed. You can call utf8_length_from_latin1 to find the required buffer length, or provide a buffer that is twice as large as the input buffer, which will always suffice. We intend that users build high-level APIs around these functions if so
desired.

> Also, for all that simdutf is really quite fast, it's really not obvious how to transcode latin-1 to utf-8 in a single pass, because you apparently need to compute the length first.

You do this by having the caller pre-allocate a buffer that will always be long enough (twice the length of the input). Some bytes of the buffer may end up being unused, but that's usually acceptable.
You said Mb/s not mbps.
Sorry if this is a silly question; why isn't there more investment in heated garages? Going outside to get into a below-freezing car sounds very uncomfortable.
Yeah, I cycle between kirkland nasal spray and eyedrops.

And now going back on-site, the headcolds you pick up with proximity to people, Sudafed was AWESOME, it's just a pita to get and I shouldn't use it a lot.
> make all the governments and Apple sit up and do some real damage to these actors.

International weapons dealing doesn't work that way. Point to any manufacturer of weapons and there's a bunch of people that don't like them. But the countries that benefit from those weapons don't agree.
I don't think assumption is a common thing. I've done 5-6 mortgages in the last few years and they all have a clause that say they are non-assumable spelled out very obviously on the loan agreement.
Just set the --gpu-layers|-ngl flag. Run main with --help to see all the options.
The SDKs use Smithy[1] which is tailored for defining+generating services and SDKs, Ion is more of a pure data serialization format. It's definitely niche but my org uses it in a few places and it has some nice properties that fit our case pretty well (rapidly evolving schema, most clients only care about a small subset of attributes, ability to apply multiple and different schemas based on regions or businesses).

It's the sort of thing where I'd advise exploring other options first and only using it if the whys[2] really resonate with you because it definitely comes with some overhead.

> All votes cast in the election — held by mail between Aug. 21 and Sept. 11

Wow, it was unanimous :o

I wonder how many people voted, or had the opportunity to vote.
JSON is good enough for anything I've done.

Except for closing comments, for that, you need XML.
Is it really that surprising? there's two hardware pieces, both are rated for outdoor (permanent) use. I don't see a way to guarantee that sort of thing with a user serviceable ethernet port except the way they did it.

I actually debated buying the longer dish wire vs leaving the thing outside, and made the decision to buy the longer cable and the ethernet port adapter, because i live in an area where sustained power outages longer than 24 hours will allow moisture ingress into any device left outside, and the higher the IP rating, the more likely this is to damage said device.
It's funny, I think the denial is on the other side, the Stockholm syndrome hysterics that never want to let go of whatever psychological thing happened to them during covid. Yes there's a new respiratory virus, it's not a reason for us all to act crazy forever, but it's garnered this insane "following" of people who now want the world to revolve around it. Time to move on.

Edit: I'm not trying to convince anybody, I know there's a group that's to far gone for that that really needs proper mental health support. My comment was really just a reaction to accusing the normals of "denial", which is a bit much.
As a former Unity game dev it seems extremely easy to believe
It is great to see this made clear in the U.S., as it facilitates the flow of information and efficiency. Canada also needs to do this for legally mandated regulations referring to the CSA, NRC, etc.
Just a cool 750B a day plus 4T is repo operations.
For my first software engineering job, I was hired to replace a Microsoft Access system that had grown too big.

I decided to just write it in .Net with SQL Server, since that's what Microsoft was saying to do at the time.

That was 22 years ago, when it was in beta.

I've also made a career out of it. I got to greenfield another project recently, and I went with C# for the APIs.
Ion has a binary format but is not specifically about real-time streaming. It is a JSON replacement.

Ion originated 10+ years ago from the Amazon catalog team - the team that kept data about the hundreds of millions of items available on Amazon. Nearly every team in the company called the catalog to get information about items all the time - scanning the entire catalog, parts of the catalog, millions of individual item lookups every second, etc.

They did the math and some very large percentage of network traffic in Amazon Retails data centers was catalog data. If that data, currently in XML or JSON format, was sent in a more compact format it would save some ridiculous millions of dollars every year. So Ion was born and eventually open sourced.
> is the problem that legislative bodies are adopting inaccessible text as law?

This one. Anything the government deems a standard or law should be in the public domain, accessible directly from government sources. And obviously, from there, anyone who wants to copy it would be able to.

>is the problem that copyright laws confer too many rights to the owners

Although this is also a problem due to excessively long copyright terms, but not in this specific case.
The big circle is picks and shovels. Yawn.
If they’d swapped it out, oh I don’t know, 5 years ago. Or not required the EU stomp on them to switch, I’d be right there with you.

Same with if they had modern speeds on their non-Pro models.

They’re just being dicks now though.
Every database that contains your PII increases your exposure to a breach and likelihood of having to deal with it. It's not the sudafed use that makes it a target: it's the driver's license.
There’s one thing that’s a guarantee in life:

As long as it keeps the rich getting richer it will be implemented and become the law
It seems no company is shy of the inevitable enshitification when they get to a certain size

That article was about a Latin 1 to UTF-8 routine, while this one is about UTF-8 from/to UTF-16.
Elon Musk Is Dangerous to Society
This guy is amazing. This started out as a Kickstarter, for something like 25€, and for that price point, it was unbeatable. Especially if size was important. Heck, even at the current price point it's not too shabby (if size matters).

And where most other Kickstarters abandon their projects once they released it, moving on to something different, this guy on the other hand still provides updates (new hardware, updated drivers, etc.), to a point where even big companies could really learn from.

Sure, the VoCore might not compete with a fancy ASUS router or FritzBox, but that was never the intended target.
As much as I like philosophy of mathematics, I never feel quite at ease with sets being some universal foundation.

Lists, sets, graphs, all seem quite fundamental to us humans, but where in nature does one observe these weird things? A cave or a jug are highly complex things. Perhaps molecules resemble a graph, but if I understand physics correctly, atoms move like crazy and it's almost accidental that the graph structure is somewhat stable in most molecules.

This led me to believe that these fundamental containers are probably a byproduct of how our brains work, more than that they are fundamental outside of those.

Thanks to ChatGPT, I now know that this makes me a mathematical fictionalist, or mathematical anti-realist.

Anyone care to talk me out of this? :)
People keep inventing new ones because the old ones suck or they think the old ones suck. Look at all the discontents around JSON (no comments!), people react violently when people try to apply a little extra like JSON-LD. Then there are all the things like YAML, TOML and such that try to be a little better but are widely thought to be a little worse. (And that's just the human readable data formats) Then there is always
