Where I’m from (Kuwait) we don’t have any building code that defines or limits what can be done with a home or building’s facade and to be honest the clash of tastes is really visible and bothersome to see even when walking in my own neighborhood. However, this summer I travelled to Oman where such a code exists to limit out of place color palettes and facade shapes, so the houses are actually beautiful to look at with the mountain range in the background. Even those buildings near the coast have a separate set of codes and the place is certainly appealing to see and walk through.

Of course, sometimes there is a need for iconic structures and buildings, and there is a place for that, but I believe it is a matter of delicate balance and therefore should be codified as to not ruin the horizon. And thats why I kind of agree with the quoted statement.
I don't think that solves anything. With critical secret pieces of hardware you will still want confirmation that they were destroyed or recover them. So even if the plane can attempt to self-destruct as much as possible, the military is still going to want to confirm the result.
Hunter-gatherer societies do not represent some ideal state that we should strive for, but rather a particular societal adaptation to the environment at the time. We live in a different environment (one that I have zero interest in destroying in favor of trying to recreate some imagined ideal from prehistory), so the naturalistic fallacy is what has no place here.

Ok so it’s not Microsoft exposing Microsoft, but government exposing its S3 buckets.

The question should be — why is all that data and power concentrated in one place? Because of the capitalist system and Big Tech, or Big Government.

Personally I am rather happy when “top secret information” is exposed, because that I s the type of thing that harms people around the world more than it helps. The government wants to know who is sending you $600 but doesnt want to tell you how they spent trillions on shadowy “defense” contractors.

Suzanne Simard has a bunch of chemical analysis that says yes, and most of her testing was in the PNW and western Canada (BC and... Alberta?)

A lot of the other literature on the complex relationship of soils and trees (and trees and trees via soil life) were instigated by her observations.

She was trying to get NW foresters to stop bathing everything in herbicides before replanting clearcuts. They always struggled more than anticipated.
I think it's easy to underestimate how different our brains are relative to different classes of animals, and there is a lot of convergent evolution going on.

For example, even low level auditory perception, such as how the brain evolved to localize sound directions, evolved independently in mammals and birds: https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/physrev.000... (this is because their common ancestor didn't have a tympanic ear).

So the Triune brain really isn't the best model for explaining what is going on in the brain. Models such as reinforcement learning don't fully explain what is going on in the brain either, but I think explanations such as how dopamine flooding the reward system can mess with predicted rewards and contribute to addiction, etc. are more useful.
Perhaps, but the USSR declared war on Aug 7. Hiroshima was Aug 6. Japan surrendered Sept 2.

Also consider. The USSR declared on Aug 7 because they wanted to get their bite out of Japan before it was too late. So in some sense the bomb hastened their entry, which hastened the end of the war...

All I can say is, I'm glad I'm not the one who had to make these decisions in real time.
I do too. Somewhere Street and PythagoraSwitch are shows my family and I have watched every week for many years. I find Somewhere Street particularly rewarding - we've learned about so many different countries and cities and their people.

And in general, watching NHK you get a perspective on things that are entirely missing or lacking in the US (e.g. things that inspire confidence and trust in public institutions, what the government is doing to prepare for natural disasters).

This documentary is really eye-opening about Miyazaki, his creative process, mental state, and the relationship with Studio Ghibli. Depressing, but I thought it was worth watching.

What Is an Interface / Wrapper?
Sure, its wonderful (though trivial) that you can easily wrap AI HTTP APIs in any language that you can easily wrap an HTTP API with, but that's not really related to the sense of API application in which Python is perceived as having a preferred status.

Even if this is true "historically speaking", it doesn't have to be true of this guy's local church. Despite the bad press generally, an individual church can still be an unambiguous benefit to its community.

I would be willing to bet that the majority of local (single location, <400 members) churches are like this. Free meals for the community, donating money / labor / resources to homeless shelters, partnering with food banks and soup kitchens, etc are all very common. You just don't hear about it.
I live in the real world, and there are incident reports that go into great detail about every aircraft loss. I’ve read every one since 1999, and I’ve never seen an incident where the pilot ejected over a populated area in an aircraft that was still controlled.

if that is insufficient, use proofpoint.

for archives that are tickling bugs, you have to use a similar technique. it's not enough to analyze them and send them on as-is. you have to unpack in a sandbox (which will be detectable, no 2 ways about it, but the question is will anyone expend enough effort to detect -- no, not for your use case, seeing as how you're asking the question at all), process with dangerzone or dangerzone-like tool, then re-archive it and let the user see only that new archive.

If you use GitOps to manage apps, you better isolate them somehow, for example put each app in a different directory. In this case, a revert for App A wouldn't cause problems for B and C.

But frankly, GitOps works best with stateless apps. Managing stateful apps is possible but you need to take care of state yourself.

> Actual groups outside of the house (e.g. hack spaces) are too far away or have awkward hours.

If this is actually the case, most of the replies you got are going to be hard because they are about finding a group that is ostensibly not a social group (sports league, gym, &c.). FWIW, this would also be my recommendation.

If your kids are both school aged, you might need to put significant effort into rearranging your life around something that has awkward hours. Make sure your spouse is on board (e.g. if they are feeling equally socially distanced, rearranging things for just you would make them rightfully jealous), and find something that you can make happen.

I remember emerging from the blur of having toddlers and realizing I didn't spend time with anyone. I joined a gym and am part of a bi-monthly TTRPG group. It's made a difference.
Ask HN: What are some books or courses which had high ROI on your career?
In the US, this is pretty simple actually. If you set up a charity whose sole purpose is beautifying some region (that will pass IRS's tests), you can donate to it and reduce your taxable income. I imagine Canada has a similar structure.
At some level I feel like they should just drop paint and install paint.net as a default.

There are two origin stories. The Verge article tells Tony's.

The CHM interview tells Scott's: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiuVggWNqSA&t=1467s&ab_chann...

Given the iPhone hardware came from skunkworks iPad team (and not iPod) and the software came from the Mac team (and not iPod) I personally take Tony's claims of inventing the iPhone with a grain of salt and opportunistic when Scott was later forced out over the unrelated Apple Maps launch issues. But you should judge for yourself. It's probably not clear cut.

How do they define "today"? Because I've been running iOS 17 since last week.

EDIT: Seriously, I got notified about the update the day they premiered iPhone 15, I thought that's their standard operating procedure to release software on the same day as hardware. Reading about iOS release today was really confusing.

Is there any "early access" program that I could have unconsciously signed up to, so that's why I did receive it early?

Equivocation fallacy.
"What would happen if I increased the vulnerability with one or more people in my life?" is a great question for starting this personal journey.

There's a few responses to this that determine what happens next. If your response is "I don't have any acquaintances," then you may want to concentrate on factors like isolation.

However, if your response is along the lines of "I would feel uncomfortable doing that," or "I don't have any friendships where that would be ok," then there is a simple[1] set of concepts and skills development that anyone can do to improve the depth of their friendships or develop acquaintances into friends.

The basic concept it to determine where your friendship/acquaintances currently lies in terms of intimacy, and decide to increase the intimacy level by one step. Repeated increases constitute a ratcheting effect that over long timescales cultivate deeply meaningful connections.

Lynch's Intimacy Rating Scale[2] is a good tool for both identifying your current level as well as determining in broad strokes what you would need to do to increase intimacy. You may decide that one or two of among a few friends/acquaintances might be a good way to start.

Depending on you or your social environment, a response to this may be "This goes against social gender norms," or more succinctly, "Guys don't do that." If that's the case, what a better starting point for curious questioning along the lines of that may be the case, but what if I was part of a group of people that changed that.

You need to align their incentives with yours: wait until it gets windy out, knock the poles down, and demand that they come fix it.
Most tax-related rules in the US are specified in an XML-based business rules language. That's partly how tax prep companies are able to get rules that don't finalize until 12/31 into products that have to ship 6 weeks later.
Also lying on a net, I wonder what this person's elbows look like after a few minutes.
No one is discussing the legality of such things. The discussion is whether things like that are just. That's why e.g. eastern Oregon has a secession movement. The west side of the state can legally tell the east side to do what they want. The east side does not feel that being in a shared democracy with the west side is working.
Wait, what is the difference between “programmer mode” and “can do floating point numbers” mode? The former implies the latter, right?
Rust didn't invent the terminology.

Rust has stackless coroutines. Go has stackful coroutines. The literal distinction is that stackless coroutines exist independently of a stack: you have a state machine object that, when it's resumed into, is put onto the stack and calls normal functions through the run-time stack. Stackful coroutines are essentially lightweight threads (hence "green threads" or "virtual threads"): the coroutine comes with a miniature run-time stack.

In practice, stackless coroutines are more space efficient and have lower context-switch costs. A big factor for Rust specifically is interoperating with C. Stackful coroutines make writing "straight-line" code simpler (no function coloring) but introduce more overhead.
Yeah, I've been thinking that would be nice to create a folder that holds all the json with the data mocked once using your interfaces as reference, that way could be used for unit testing.
The issue I'm shown has "Service: Lambda" on it, so I wonder if it's only shown to folks with Lambda functions live. Someone tweeted at me that they're having issues on EKS, and that they use private DNS inside their VPC as I do.
The OpenTelemetry ecosystem is definitely still young depending on the language, but we have Ruby users onboard (typically using OpenTelemetry for the tracing portion, and piping logs via Heroku or something else via the regular Ruby logger).

The point is that crates written against different editions are forwards and backwards compatible, but how the crate is written isn't.

So Rust can make a "breaking" change in a new edition. This isn't actually breaking because you need to "opt-in" by updating to the new edition. This allows many "breaking" changes without actually breaking the ecosystem. Each crate can upgrade whenever they feel like it (possibly never) and they can make this decision independently of any other crates.

For example look at the breaking changes introduced in the 2021 edition: https://doc.rust-lang.org/edition-guide/rust-2021/index.html. Each item on the left menu is a breaking change that was able to be shipped due to the edition system.

You are right that the edition system does create limits for what can be changed. However this is because doing so would have downsides. Notably if older editions couldn't depend on newer editions I may need to migrate my crate to a new edition in order to update a dependency to get a security fix. Edition updates are typically quite easy but it was still a conscious decision that they aren't ever required, unless you want to take advantage of the new features added in that edition.
For developers that only see UNIX everywhere, surely.

Thanks to legions of developers leaving GNU/Linux behind, adopting OS X, Microsoft realized the mistake to not offer proper POSIX support on the Windows NT OS linage.
> It seems to me that the really wicked smart people understood long ago that AI research is very dangerous.

Every time I hear Elon or Altman claiming the "Dangers of AI" I don't see them as intelligent.

I see them as pandering to a misinformed public, trying to upsell AI as the Terminator, when it's nothing more than a sophisticated algorithm. What they're actually doing is anti-competitive, attempting to stop new entrants by securing a monopoly by way of government regulation and misinformation. It's not intelligence, it's sleazy.
None of those have to do with community formation, which is what the subject is about.

You're asking Valve to illegally modify and distribute another developer's intellectual property?

I think they very clearly draw the line there, nowhere has Valve claimed responsibility for fixing other developer's issues. They ship a runtime that works very similar to Windows, they don't write patches and hack jobs for bad developers.
The problem with these examples is they're heavily skewed once a single metric, eg small land area (Singapore, HK, Netherlands) or extreme resource disparity (SA & UAE). Generalizing from outlier examples is rarely a good idea.
I saw that, but that's kind of useless when you kind of want something like SO or similar results, something Google keeps failing at.
Just "5 years" is very misleading.

I have a 7.5 year-old iPhone SE and it has gotten two security updates this past month. In other words, the 5 years you mention is ONLY for entirely new OS versions which old hardware simply can't support. Older phones continue to be supported.
I figured this out a couple years ago. Google Maps was the best in the game for a long time, but they pretty clearly switched from 'attract and lock in customers with a great product' to 'wring money out of our locked-in customers' mode, and it shows. Apple Maps is what I use about 99% of the time now.
You have me curious now.
The models generate text. Could a model hypothetically be trained in such a way that could create a buffer overflow when given certain prompts? I am guessing the way inference works in such a way that cant happen
While NYC is great, and our biggest city, etc., one difference from other countries is that New York State (the whole thing), only represents 8.1% of US GDP. Even if you add all of New Jersey and Connecticut, you get about 12.3% of total GDP.

As states, both California & Texas have greater share of GDP than NY.

So US GDP is much less concentrated than in some other countries.
