vendor A sells a part with a driver in the mainline kernel.

vendor B doesnt, so on top of the part you have to spend time bodging together an untested driver into a custom kernel.

It will be interesting to see if this helps solve the tritium/helium 3 problem that all current fusion companies face.

I’ve always found it interesting that they are allowed to pitch VCs claiming that they are doing the same thing the sun does, when the sun in fact does proton/proton, proton/deuterium, and helium 3/helium 3 fusion at a relatively slow rate under extremely high pressure.
How do UK laws apply to a US hosted website run by a company whose only legal entity AFAIK is in the US?

What action do you think the UK can take?
In economics that's called the marginal propensity to spend! And on the lower rungs of the economic ladder the marginal propensity to spend versus the marginal propensity to save is nearly 100% toward spending there and nearly 0% for any savings. So any extra income given via Tax rebates and other methods of income redistribution for lower income households will almost 100% be assured to be immediately spent for some discretionary products purchases as long as the costs of Housing/Food and other necessaries is not eating up all of that beforehand.
XML is pretty good for information extraction with LLMs. It will parse your input text into a tree structure. JSON and YAML will conjure slightly different skills from the LLM. Maybe it all comes from the slightly different applications of these formats in the training corpus.
I kindly disagree. Solar and wind are marginal, and they have developed a lot thanks to fossil fuels. For society to not collapse, we would need them to scale in a world without fossil fuels. That is very far from being remotely proven. Then you can't control solar and wind (if there is no sun and no wind, you're screwed), so you need something else. If you have that something else, then probably you don't need that much solar/wind. Don't get me wrong: some solar and some wind is probably appropriate in many situations, but that is far from remotely replacing fossil fuels.

Fission is nice, but it takes a lot of time to build new plants (we as a society will be screwed pretty soon, so we don't have a ton of time before deciding to build new ones), but still they won't replace fossil fuels entirely.

Which means that we are going towards a future with less energy. If we screw up (and keep not doing anything like now), we're essentially dead. If we do it really well, we will have some energy, but not as much as today.

Therefore we need to prepare our society to deal with less energy. That has nothing to do with politics, it's just physics. Politics will make the difference between society completely collapsing and society dealing with less energy.
That is not normal. Specs?
There was a time when Linux distros tried to concur the desktop. For that they needed the normal user to re-install the OS. Windows never really had this challenge as Windows was and still is pre-installed.

To ease the self installation quite a few nice innovations were made. One is a easy and beautiful install process. Also remember the LiveCD and not sure if related but the UnionFS was also a smart idea to support LiveCD deployments.
Non technical users are usually sufficiently confused by the git tooling to get to said file..I don't see the point.
Yeah the good apps give you options.

In this case there was no reason at all to take the major roads. Many parallel options existed.
IMO this is not the technical level that matter, it's the UX, if we leave aside the super duper AAA games, which would use Unreal, then it's about putting a whole lot of different assets together, and hold them with code glue. Unity has some nice things that are not there yet in godot (from the top of my mind: better font support, in term of UX once again), and C# is way better than thw half-assed language that is Godotscript.

That being said I'm pretty sure that Godot is about to close this gap before 2025, given the recent boost in popularity.

pretty sure you're not supposed to use px in the height attribute. they are pixels.

the width will be set to match the aspect ratio but your browser will have to DL the image first. which probably doesn't matter unless you have content to the left/right of it, then it'll get bumped when the image loads. layout shift is a nasty thing.
I’m looking forward to upgrading to Fedora 39 soon, but am _really_ wary of GNOME 45, for two reasons:

- The GNOME team has been progressively decimating themeing (no, I don’t like the libadwaita default look, never have, never will).
- Every time there is a GNOME upgrade half my extensions break because they decided to change some baseline assumption in the APIs.

That said, it is the nicest DE for me UX-wise, since it requires only a couple of tweaks to satisfy my Mac-centric reflexes. But the first few weeks of a new release are always a pain because of subtle breakage that should never gone past the beta stage, and I don’t see a lot of ongoing feedback to the desktop experience being acted upon.
How does one break into the industry though? I worked in a project tangentially related and the problem is that sales were done by corporate sales man rather than on technicality. The companies buying the product didn't care because the people involved were making "deals". The company selling the product didn't care about making the product better because it was selling and having high AWS bills sounds like they were doing something (even though they were burning money).
> I think any site that relies on advertising on the web is going to die.

What? No.
The only known useful application of generative LLMs is to write automatic ad copy.
This means the cost of doing advertising will lower dramatically and we'll get more of it. (Mostly "native" ads in places where putting ad copy was previously not economically feasible - e.g., twitter posts, tiktoks, etc.)
They do compensate the community.

First, they make goods available: bottled water.

Second, they buy the land and/or water rights to use them.
> If address and POI search could be further improved, I wouldn't see a reason to use Google Maps ever again.

For my part this works well enough on OSMand/Organic maps but what they lack is traffic information.

On my main route there can be anywhere from 0 to 1h of traffic, and Google maps seems to be very accurate at estimating it.

Anytime I don't need traffic info, I use another map application because Google maps had all kinds of errors and missing information, but no other app has reliable traffic information (I realise Google has it because people use Google maps, but I wish it was different).
People want flying cars and free lunches as well. Logic in config shows a defect in your design, not a feature of the system.
Here are some real headlines from Bloomberg. I'm not changing my original stance. Bloomberg tries to make US hacking China sound like revenge accusations. Meanwhile, Bloomberg will usually put a source or direct entity behind China hacking US, making it sound more credible. It's subtle but effective.

It's common so there's even an anime for it, Ben-to.
This is a bad take. Let me sum up.

>>“I need to configure this server and the server needs to know if this value is true or false.”
>No, that’s bad. Don’t do that. That’s not a good use for XML.

First, the primary case that people use YAML for is not appropriate for XML? I don't agree with this but, taking it on face value, it creates a YAML strawman to attack.

Second, the rest of the argument boils down to "I don't like how floats are parsed in my language of choice". Guess what? You're storing your version strings in the wrong data type. Stop storing semver and it's variants in floating point types, that's not what they're for.

Finally, this is ultimately a "considered harmful" article, which is always a red flag.
Just reading the wikipedia page on Base64 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base64). Algorithmically it seems to be a 8-bit byte to character mapping. So, if you were to base encode a character string it'd be {characters} -> {bytes} ->[base64] -> {characters}.

I'd presume this prompt would work fine:

Here is a mapping of numbers to letter given as a pairs: (A,1) (B,7) (C,23) (D,14). Use the mapping to convert the following string to numeric representation: ACCDAB.

I'd also presume that the same template could be used to instruct ChatGPT to do Base64 (with some additions for padding).

Yet, I suspect the capability given in the above prompt is not surprising to anyone. So, why is Base64 surprising? What am I missing?
I find it a bit sad that (secure) bike parking is missing in a country where it honestly feels like half of the constructed territory is parking lots.

Not a criticism, but the area covered by parking lots in the US shocks me every time I visit.

Instead of making half-working heavy autonomous electric cars, couldn't Silicon Valley somehow find a low-tech way to solve the secure bike parking issue? They are good at claiming that they want a better world, and this should not be rocket science.
The same way the US prevents me from buying cuban cigars here in Germany over the internet:

* execs are liable for breaches of the law if/when they travel to the US.
* companies in the US are forbidden to do business with companies in Germany that breach the US law

There are a handful of small companies doing direct sales that are small enough that they do not have US partners. The rest complies because doing otherwise is financially disadvantageous.
Nice. Cameras are so small and cheap now you can do that. Computing optical flow is cheap now, too. This is something you can make from cell phone parts. Early designs were sheets of resistive plastic between crossing grids of flexible printed circuits.
He has consistently been an arsehole for many years in public (a quick scan of his Wikipedia page provides high level details). Whether or not it's an act doesn't change what he's chosen to do to further his own career. The fact that he is now wealthy and established enough from doing so to make a TV series on his own terms about something that interests him as a more genuine version of himself shouldn't excuse this.
It is such a better developer experience. My unfinished Three.js game[0] was on Unity a few years ago, but that became unbearable. The modern web platform is too new, it hasn't proven itself to big money, so it's going to be indie games first.

To answer sibling comments: Graphics aren't a limiting factor for indie games. And a Three.js game can be put onto Steam, I'm pretty sure.

As a citizen of the UK government I believe I am merely in a state of superposition. I do not exist until observed by HMRC.
Interesting.

This is like DeepFloyd but probably combined with OpenAI's strength in NLP field.

I remember Ilya Sutskever often mentioned how multimodal is important in multiple interviews. ControlNet can produce more impressive results for sure, but the model being able to have strong understanding of multimodals like language and light and space as a unified modal will push the industry forward towards the goal of AGI.
Lot of truth in that though to be fair the 'page three' tradition (the inclusion of an image of a half-naked female on page 3 of a tabloid newspaper) finally ended in 2019. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_3
The point of the canary, is to turn any non-answer into a practical, or at least a tentative, "yes". If you no longer see an explicit "no", it means "yes".
...or, to quote the article:

> Therefore, the plant has to reduce in its volume as it reaches its extremities, causing a higher ratio of capillary to the surrounding plant mass

The way I read it: because branches at the extremities are thinner, the ratio of "living skin" to "dead skeleton" is higher. I'm just wondering why this isn't immediately obvious and why they are presenting this as a great discovery?! Also, the phrase "has to reduce in its volume as it reaches its extremities" sounds a bit backwards: sure, young branches are thinner, and as the tree grows and branches get older, they grow thicker to support the young branches that grow off them.
Ideally, you'd take all the documents in each language, and compress them in turn with the unclassified text, to see which compresses it better. But this won't work very well with gzip, since it compresses based on a 32KB sliding window. You might as well truncate the training data for each class to the last 32KB (more or less). So to get any performance at all out of a gzip-based classifier, you need to combine a ton of individually quite bad predictors with some sort of ensemble method. (The linked code demonstrates a way of aggregating them which does not work at all).
The image contains the various editions (Home, Pro, etc) but only one language. Doesn't make sense to me as a company will like use one edition but possibly various languages.
That’s a feature.

I would suggest that they need more POSIX incompatible flags adding to all the commands.
Is there an HTML formatter that'll strip unnecessary closing tags?

I used to be team semi-colon in JS but I've switched teams now and have my formatter strip them. There's like 1 or 2 edge cases where that can bite you but practically speaking it's a non-issue. The real downside is that I sometimes get lazy when writing C++ and that very much dislikes poor punctuation.

It’s a different hardware package too - id imagine the thermals differ significantly between the phone and the pad, and that you can drive the chip harder in the pad.
Where does that local water come from? Rain.

Where did the rain cloud get the water? It evaporated, likely from the ocean.

How did the water get into the ocean? It flowed down from lakes into rivers etc.

The local water table might fall, but the water itself is hardly local unless you're drilling for it.
I've always had a great a time using Fastly (varnish) for caching.

FNA is a reimplementation of the old Microsoft XNA framework. I think the appeal of FNA is mostly to keep old games alive, rather than as a platform for new ones, so it feels a bit strange to see it get as much funding as Godot here. Terraria itself is developed in XNA (and presumably uses FNA now) though, so it could be pure self-interest (which isn't a bad thing).
When anyone talks about Equifax's "customers" that means Government at all levels along with every corporate who isn't using a competitor. I would think a takeover similar to what happened with Fannie Mae/Freddy Mac could happen as much to maintain Equifax as a going concern and protect the credit markets than an actual penalty. Consumers still get screwed.
The Godot project recently launched their own foundation to avoid Patreon fees and VAT while putting a larger percentage of donations directly to work. I just moved my monthly contribution to the foundation yesterday. This is great news to complement that!
No, they're saying they can't imagine it happening at a private company, but can once the company has gone public.
I wonder if you could just add a link to a terms of service for your site that explicitly states the site was not for use by users in the UK, and that they should ensure they’re following all laws and using the site at their own risk.

I wouldn't put it like the op. And I don't know how us food stamps work but:

1. Presumably food stamps don't cover all food, so if someone wants to use their own money to get takeaways they can.

2. Surely the aim of the govt should be to make sure the citizenship is fed healthily, especially when they're footing the bill.

I know in the UK they have a similar system for pregnant women and young kids and it is restricted to healthy things.

Ultimately if you're going to let people spend food stamps on fast food, why not just give them cash instead.

Edit: does Uber deliver from supermarkets in the US? If so that seems ok. In the UK it's synonymous with fast food delivery, all the supermarkets have their own delivery services.
Significant fraction of water spent to water plants evaporates and then falls as rain, usually far away, so it doesn’t stay in a local water system either.
The chip might be small. The required board to use it can be big due to placements constraints, required extra components to make it work, space required for routing antenna traces, heat dissipation, etc.

While at those engineering levels you can emulate and foresee all that, sometimes shit simply happens.
What I really don’t understand is why parents aren’t responsible for monitoring they’re children's access to the Internet anymore?

Why does it need to be done at each website instead of at the point of access?

Because the title of the article is "An open-source maps app that doesn't suck" when it should have been "An open-source maps app that doesn't suck in the US".

There are people on here that don't live in the US, and it's sometimes exhausting to have to add these suffixes in your head by default. You always have to assume that, if the author doesn't specify, they're talking about the US, whereas most of the world doesn't actually live in the US.
I thought a game engine was something that reduces the effort of making a game, by taking up all your time writing the new engine so you never actually start making the game?
While this is true, I don't think it's the actual cause.

The cause is that they're oblivious to how computers work and think they can do things like this without any important side effects just by saying so.

France has 2 years of ready to use fuel plus 5 years of fuel to refine meaning they have to get a replacement within the next 7 years or reuse waste or mine locally as a last resort, they'll be fine.

I'm not even sure the new dictator will live that long or change his mind in the meantime anyways.

Well no, those are a rounding error at best.
It was more a heavy-handed tactic to get small ad-supported game developers to switch to using Unity's ad network rather than their competitors.
It’s not about the kids. It’s never about the kids.

As it's a 'pay once, access forever' model, I think this is reasonable, especially if you hope for your videos to ultimately generate revenue/income in some way

>Especially given the way MCC massacred Halo1 with the horrendous Halo 1 PC port back to Xbox, and then later to PC again.

MCC launched in a terrible state, but it's had a crazy amount of deep improvements over the years and I think all of the big known issues of the original Halo PC port have been addressed since a few years ago.
It depends on what age you are and whether you work with documents. If you started working in the industry past 2010 and didn't have to work with generating/reading (X)HTML/OOXML/ODF than it's rather likely you've never had an experience with XML (fortunately SOAP was deprecated very quickly).
> The other big problem is the burnout from maintainers, which are often unpaid and could use a lot more support from the billion-dollar companies that benefit from using Linux.

This is the crux of the issue: putting the maintenance burden on unpaid volunteers instead of having the burden be carried by the companies that profit from the 6-year LTS.
> All of the outcry was likely anticipated when they made that decision.

You can always miscalculate.
At least from my perspective, it is not just a "gotcha" problem or whatever feelings it conjures up in a judge's mind.

When a company, who already has a canary in place, receives this kind of warrants, what _can_ the company practically do to comply with non-disclosure? It seems that lying is now the only option left, if the company must explicitly post a "no, we didn't receive such a warrant".
Depends on if the opposite (following GDPR) give more profit margin then this one.
Better, if the compressor can use all that extra context. Gzip, and most traditional general purpose compressors, can't.

It's hard to use distant context effectively. Even general purpose compression methods which theoretically can, often deliberately reset part of their context, since assuming a big file follows the same distribution throughout as in its beginning often hurts compression more than just starting over periodically.
