As others have mentioned, it's got a few things going for it.

1. It's super easy to embed in an existing code base
2. The language itself is simple and easy to learn
3. It has native coroutines, which allows game devs to write code without a spider web of callbacks
4. For what it does, it is fast

How far away from civilization (or the next supermarket) do you need to be for these prices and fees to make any sort of sense, that anyone even remotely thinks about taking a single drink? I've never seen something like that in Europe.
Whether this is insanity or evil, I don't know, but it needs to be stopped.

Apple Uses iPhone 15 Event to Begin Pivot Toward a Vision Pro Future
Programmers are peak "fine I'll do it myself" with a culture of freely sharing knowledge, so I both get it as a point to criticize and an honorable mindset.

With that in mind, I a fine paying for tools I need if I understand the service behind it is massive and hard to replicate. A less controversial example is IDE's. Visual Studio has a great free Suite and a justifiable pro edition to pay for (and enterprise, but I'll leave the costs of million dollar corporations out of this). Jetbrains is pay up front (unless you use Android Studio) but their model lets you keep the version you paid a year for. These are good balances between subscription and ownership.

Of course, these game engines are doing very heavy lifting, but it's never okay to retroactively change you you monetize product you already launched. On top of all that, this plan simply doesn't sound well thought out (or actively malicious if you want to go that direction).
This was fantastic, thank you!
I am into Rust, and I did check out Bevy. I made a little demo WASM game called StarRust which you can play at the bottom of the page:
https://dublog.net/blog/rust-2/

TLDR: Bevy is in no ways ready for prime time. It's at least 3 years away from getting anywhere near where Godot 4.1 currently is and light years away from Unity in usability.
I'm using pgvector in production, mainly in a table with 500k-1M rows.

My main use case is to return search results with pagination: page 1 from 1-50, page 2 from 51-100, page 3 from 101-150, etc. (Think LIMIT and OFFSET).

After a lot of experimentation and help from pgvector's team, we discovered that, for this specific use case, IVFFLAT index is much faster than HNSW.

I looked at your documentation and only saw HNSW, no IVFFLAT.

What would be Lantern's performance for this specific use case?

Thx!
That's incredible about Bob Monkhouse, especially his leftover collection. What a shame about all the other items that were seized and seemingly destroyed.
MLPerf Results Highlight Growing Importance of Generative AI and Storage
Compared to just having a conversation and being a good reader of people. Not everybody can do that, as not everybody is a good programmer, or designer or whatever. No silver bullet, also for recruiters.
Every human problem is in essence a problem of energy abundance. We need to embrace all technologies that let us unlock more energy wielded per capita, preferably without harmful side-effects like pollution, but where there exist side-effects they must be weighed against the benefit, instead of being categorically banned.

The latter, without an alternative source of energy, just means people will be worse off. Greenlash is already a thing in many developed countries that have tried to set unrealistic policy goals. In my opinion, the focus on net-zero should really be a focus on a clean, abundant, and cheap energy source -- like fusion, if it can be realized. Instead, it seems like the current focus of net-zero is on how to divide the energy we can currently produce and in what way.

It is immoral to ask or force the global poor living in yet-to-be-developed countries to not raze their forests for agriculture or other use, when it is the same path that every developed nation has already trod; and besides, they aren't going to listen either way, when their own livelihoods are at stake. The way out of the problem is through: through more energy.
Yup. For a responsible user there simply is no downside to using a credit card in most situations.
Why not use a structured array with an 'isna' field to use as a mask when performing operations?

Certainly. I'm sure there's a correlation between poor wired broadband and lower income even if it's not perfect. But Starlink is a game changer for a lot of people who otherwise can't get decent wired Internet--and, especially if you can't get wired broadband, the options are mostly pretty bad. Probably changing some with 5G but still not ideal for many people.
Psychoactive phenethylamines??? I've never heard of that, I'm just really into nasal decongestants.
Not sure why this is popping up now, but people should know there's been quite a bit of followup work. One is a draft paper (not yet polished for publication), on arXiv[1]. I have an issue on my blog[2], and one of these days I intend to get back to it. It's also in use in Vello for the clip stack, in particular computing the intersection of bounding boxes of all clip paths in the spine of the tree from the leaf draw object to the root (clips can be nested to considerable depth). In any case, happy to talk about it.

Straight from the authoritarian playbook:

- promote the idea of a ruling class separate from the people

- journalists that publish uncomfortable truths are "whining"

- just give up because no-one is listening

These are neo-Tsarist civics. As before, they form conditions for decay and conflict.

In reality, people have never stopped listening, and never will. They may stop hearing - when voices are intentionally silenced. It follows that a critical and editorial press is the hallmark of democracy.
Also worth listening to the ADSP podcast where Parent talks specifically about Rust and why he's more interested in Hylo (formely Val):

Try to count trees from the perspective of the sun, or from the perspective of an electron.

Trees are made up of billions of atoms, in extremely differing configurations, which can only be appreciated by machinery that is able to abstract it into the concept of a tree. To the rest of the universe it's just a bunch of atoms, with no clearly defined boundary.

So, counting is not necessarily a fundamental thing either. At least, according to how I like to interpret things :)
One of the most powerful things I learned in topology was that functions can be viewed as sets of ordered pairs with the restriction that the first item in each ordered pair can only appear once.
Specifically with scheme, I believe the main problem is the symbols lack any distinction to know the difference between a function call and a syntactic form.

(Don't shoot the messenger, I've done my fair share of scheme. I've also done a lot of thinking about why some people are so turned off from the syntax, and it's certainly not that the opening parenthesis is in a slightly different place on the prefix function calls)
If there's a market this could be an interesting weekend project.
The Obama administration, which is the parent of the current administration was irrationally punitive towards whistleblowers, according to the ACLU.

By my count, the Obama administration has secured 526 months of prison time for national security leakers, versus only 24 months total jail time for everyone else since the American Revolution.

https://www.aclu.org/news/free-speech/leak-prosecutions-obam...
Yup. I've personally used both YAML and TOML for configurations, much more the latter recently and can see pros and cons for both.

> How well suited are their syntactic choices to the community they're targeting?

Also, "best" practices. One could reduce the pain of the other, but by no means is the right solution to a deeper problem at hand. For example, if one has very deep and complex nesting for configs, TOML "may be a lot nicer" compared to YAML, but that doesn't mean using TOML will make all the config parsing problems go away. It just mask away code smell. Maybe time to check if they're overcomplicating configurations in general.
Compared to Unity DOTS and Bevy, Godot's architecture is not scalable to multicore architectures.

For 99% of games and hobby gamedev's though it's good enough (just like Unity). Given enough time and funding Bevy will get there, but such performance is becoming more and more irrelevant every year tbh.

> This is not about "unwilling to pay for quality tools", but completely changing the way they charge for the tools, which gets applied to all legacy software that ever used their tools, despite their previous (now deleted) clauses that new TOS won't apply unless you use the new version, is just ridiculous to me.

That's a risk you run when the company you're buying your tools from is beholden to shareholders. Which a vast majority of the companies we can even buy tools from are/will be.
Looks like it's a custom fork of a theme called Anami: https://themeforest.net/item/anami-responsive-phpbb3-forum-t...
Many bugs can be prevented.
Perpetual licenses mean nothing if the vendor changes the TOS on your old version (which is literally what’s happening here).

yeah, yeah, we know.

It’s more so “how drunk are your guests.”
Oh, I have some coworkers that are often tasked on going into places they shouldn't be and seeing if anybody complains.

At least over the population we test, your chances of getting in jail are big enough that you shouldn't try it. But you certainly can collect anecdotal evidence that it works.
My friends and I joke about wanting this all the time.

I also keep making jokes about running a Rust server on an Oxide rack... only a matter of time, I think, hahah.
There's a setting called "Require Attention for Face ID" that you can try turning off. Your phone will be a little less secure that way, but it might help.
If MGM refuses to pay up then it must have confidence that they have sufficient backups and can get everything up and running again.

I had (still have) serious doubts that they have the expertise and discipline (as well as all the vendor systems it relies on) but I will have to give them credit if true and they can get back to 100% without paying a ransom.

At the same time, the source of this article may be completely fabricating all his/her claims, there's obviously no confirmation of any of it at this point.
Being a casino, I assume that the targets are people who are either drunk or totally indifferent to prices while they're on vacation or, as is common in Vegas, on an employer-expensed conference junket.

My solution was to go to the convenience store (still located in the casino) which was expensive (a guy in front of me nearly had a meltdown at paying $15 for a can of lager) but at least had no "restocking fees." A Target with more sensible prices is about a 10 minute walk from MGM Grand, however, in case anyone here ever winds up there.
Most of the world's population also doesn't live in liberal democracies with free press and believes all kinds of conspiracy theories.
They indeed have weight sensors - that’s how the mini fridge detects that something has been taken so it can charge you.

The concept isn’t evil in itself, it’s just that the pricing applied to it is predatory.

The warning is there for your convenience more than anything else and is often out of an abundance of caution. I’ve seen similar ones where you can pick up and put it back within a certain time and not be charged - I’m pretty sure all these machines have a grace period to avoid spurious charges in case it gets bumped/etc, so it is safe to pick up items and put them back within a reasonable timeframe.

In practice feel free to pick up (and even replace items, if it’s literally the same and they won’t be able to tell) and just play dumb and contest the charges at the front desk, they’ll have to waive them if they can’t decisively prove you actually took any items.
I think you misread their comment. If you didn't realize, you also misquoted their comment (unless it was edited).

> It is the century XXI, and the mainstream way seems to be subscribing to Telegram channels whose vibe resonates with you.
Yes, you will be living in a tiny bubble.

I believe they mean "the mainstream way" puts you into a tiny bubble, but they go on to say:

> But at least you do not get to read propaganda pieces trying to derive prefabricated conclusions out of irrelevant small events. If anything large happens, you are going to hear of it earlier or later.

Thus, I believe they were advocating for a tiny bubble -- not accusing the previous commenter of being in a tiny bubble.

When I sold my Flipper Zero recently, the buyer showed up wearing business casual, with a button-down shirt tastefully embroidered with the name of a company involved in commercial real estate.

I didn't ask whether they actually worked for that company, or the outfit was part of their pen-testing toolkit.
In my experience, the minibar's level of use is proportional to the sobriety of the guests + their understanding of the prices.

So, basically, drunk people and children.
But it's not a misconfiguration, it's a bug as the article explains. And it's not the author's fault that Apple named their firewall the same as OpenBSD.
You don't need to be far from civilization. You just need to be drunk and exhausted, which describes a very large fraction of people in Las Vegas hotel rooms.
It's usually done in a much more banal way, just charge you for what they restock.

Pseudoephedrine literally is an amphetamine, and famously the precursor to meth(amphetamine). I don't have a similar reaction but I'm not surprised some people are more sensitive.
check out "energy efficiency" -- very useful; also "budget"
Point taken, but it would seem the problem there is probably due to the arbitrary placed mixins? My proposal was more for a single configuration object, just in whatever actual syntax you (or your team) prefers. If someome runs away with that and writes json that includes yaml that includes python that generates configuration from what it found on the filesystem, responsibility for that needless complexity rests squarely on the shoulders of the new programmer.
So I guess it's time to buy their shares now, because Apple ain't going nowhere.

Of course people hate it when they have to change their cables, but at least now they can use the same cable for everything. So in time they'll love it more.
Mullvad has been working okay for me in Sonoma betas (I had to click "Connect" twice), and appears to work perfectly in the final 14.0 release (23A339). A test with ipleak.net looks normal. What am I doing right/wrong?
All that partitioning and counting can only be performed by a system that is able to abstract and differentiate between different abstractions. Brains and computers appear to be good at this, but other than that, I don't see many other structures that are capable of doing this.

So, no, I don't observe numbers in the universe, if I take on the perspective of, say, a rock.
Not publicly that I have seen, but I can assure you networking and cybersecurity companies (and others) saw this pretty quickly when the bug was first released. I was just glad to see a relatively big company calling out this rather egregious issue.
And system settings panel is so unresponsive! I think it’s written in react or something?
It’s basically what jvm should have been but never delivered:

1. Could be an edge/iot play (tho not with standard go toolchain bc those binaries are huge and slow)

2. Trusted environment makes it interesting for all kinds of sbom-related usecases. Think weapons tech, space, etc

3. On the container side things are less clear to me but may offer better startup time, reduced footprint etc

4. Finally, for plugabble software it’s most interesting option personally. It’s basically 2.) but with focus on DX over security
Xitter has benefited immensely, no?
I don't imagine investors can be pleased that Apple has largely held iPhone prices constant since 2020 despite high inflation.

Thanks!

I don’t believe pgvector reports performance changes between releases.

At the moment, we run the benchmarking on Github CI, but we plan to move this to an external machine, since the results are unstable on Github machines. We’re planning to extend benchmarking across other repos and versions.
And it's exactly why I'm so adamant about some proper security (mental security) with whatever I develop, as well as the environment. Ownership is ideal but I'm not necessarily saying "Open source or GTFO". Just some reassurance that stuff I use or stuff I make can't suddenly be hoisted up by some middleware company and taxed out the wazoo.

I already don't like how I have to keep coming back to Windows for various tooling in my work.
I’d love if they put TouchID on the power button like on the iPads
I had a Wallstreet that broke (the hinges were crap and broke, and then broke on the first replacement from Apple. Also the rubberized texture on the middle of the top case flaked) so it got replaced with a Lombard, which shared the clear brown keycaps with the Pismo. I always missed the black keycaps from the Wallstreet.

The Wallstreet also had a rainbow Apple logo under the screen like a proper Mac laptop. ;)

But if you're looking for a retro one, the Wallstreet ones had some major reliability issues that they improved in the Lombard and Pismo.

A bit silly to talk about how fast installing OS 9 on an SSD is, though. The original HD would be way slower.

Minibars seem to have generally fallen out of favor in the US and been replaced with just in-room refrigerators. It probably partly a function of the hotels I frequent though and, while I travel to Vegas less these days, it's hands-down the worst offender of breathe on the minibar or snack tray and get charged a lot of money.
CVS, Walgreens Among Companies Flagged by FDA for Selling Sketchy Products
An active paid asset marketplace, specifically for systems and templates. There is movement on this front, but it's slow.

Right now if you don't want to build it, you have to hope someone is offering it for free - where in Unity there are many options for almost anything you can think of varying quality/price.

It's just such a game changer for prototyping or just being new to game dev.
If you call Barbara Liskov's work bad or stupid or irrelevant or anything like that, bring your fucking Turing award to the debate.
It depends on the situation. They might be polite but unwilling to budge on the issue.

My mother had a problem back before "identity theft" became a common term. Apparently someone used her SS# with their employer. The IRS was coming after her about the unreported income. Hey, that's not mine! Contact your employer and get it fixed. I've never heard of them let alone worked for them and I can't find them, can you give me their address? (This was pre-internet.) No, we aren't allowed to, you need to get it fixed.

I went off to college at that point and never learned how it ended up.
I don't know about that. Aqua with it's pin stripes jewel-like buttons and other quirks was significantly worse than what we have today.

I did some research after staying in a Vegas MGM property and the minibars [1] seem to use IR beams to detect if a product has been removed. They also can be hardwired via Ethernet or use wireless protocols like zigbee. It seemed that in my room it was wireless as the thermostat model supported zigbee. I also saw that the fridge could be locked remotely (!) on some models. [1] https://bartech.com/
Popstart, a library for rapid JavaScript front-end development
Popstart is MIT licensed.

There are no dependencies and no build process. It's simple and lightweight. There is no shadow DOM, no virtual DOM diffing, and function binding is optimized for larger applications.

Popstart offers a straightforward visual representation of exactly what events are tied to which objects and it's very fast, even with thousands of objects on-screen and off. It's optimized for SPA's, but works well with page-oriented applications as well.

Here's an example to send a completed form to the server via AJAX:

<form submit=__.scrape,__.show,__.post,__.hide
scrape-selector=".example .form"
show-selector=".example .spinner"
post-url=/api/example/form
post-error=__.hide
hide-selector=".example .spinner">

Draws inspiration from AlpineJS, HTMX, Angular, and even jQuery and Moo from back in the day, so if this isn't what you're looking for, check out one of those or one of the heavier alternatives like Vue/React.

It would be easy to code as a helper, but FYI there is no router right now.
Tips to get the most out of your new Nvidia RTX
I'm only a wannabe/hobby game developer, so take my opinion with a spoon of salt, but this is:

1. Desperately needed;

2. Even if it's completely hands-off and works perfectly, still just step 1 of many, and a huge cost for any studio: retooling, lost expertise/experience, loss of momentum.

In any circumstance any company that can swallow the change of the pricing model, or that wasn't locked into Unity in the first place, will come out way ahead. A project like this gives the rest a fighting chance.
