Has there been any movement on migrating away from long polling (#475)? I didn't see anything about it in the announcements or comments despite such a big milestone
I'm not saying it has to be by definition, but the costs and complications in regularly transporting oxygen, water, food and everything else in cargo ships from Earth simply makes such a colony unrealistic even for a very small number of permanent settlers.

Plus Sonos really hasn't kept up. No support for RSTP, no ability to cast audio.

It's not "a browser in a VM."

It's "A range of VMs, with different browsers in them, for different purposes."

My "random web use" browser VMs don't have anything in them - they're ephemeral. If I need a password, I copy it from another VM over. If you escape into that VM, you might be able to grab a password being pasted, but I don't access anything I consider sensitive in them - just random forum accounts, etc. And it's easy enough to spin up other disposable VMs for stuff in Qubes (I actually mostly browse through the Tor network, to add traffic to it).

So, for your use case, you'd have one VM with your "core" stuff - passwords, logged in to webmail, banking. And then you do everything else web related in a different VM.

And to my point, what if this was federally banned outright?
Having state options is better IMHO than a no-compromise federal law one way or other on controversial issues.
Author here.

Good point. Agree that the ideal scenario would be that the end user (or the tools they use) have the final say in which polyfills to load. It's a bit of a bummer that they are shipped as part of npm packages without an easy way to get rid of them.

I wonder if our industry will move to publishing the original source files to npm in the long run. Only the last piece of the chain, the developer using these dependencies, knows what their target environments are. So the bundler could then downlevel or polyfill the code for the specified targets.
The best microwave I have ever used was the one in the lunch room at my last job: it had one big knob, which functioned like an ordinary kitchen timer, and that's all there was to it. Perfect.
I don't think it would be good to have a deterministic way to decide who gets to be called what in that case. The world would be a better place if we didn't make a distinction between mother and father, though obviously that's baked into almost all cultures and fully removing that would cause more problems than it would solve. Given that we don't have preexisting momentum to make a distinction between two parents of the same gender, I don't think we should try to standardize anything. Just pick two arbitrary titles like "dad" and "papa" and assign them randomly.
> And the distinction between sandbox-escaping and VM-escaping is rather thin.

Eh, I think it's a good bit harder to escape a HVM isolated virtual machine than a sandbox. At least, I'm not aware of many cross-Xen VM escapes.
Why isn't the bridge fixed?
The downside of that development is that it created an unsustainable market.

So you have an industry that periodically starts a fare war that requires federal bailouts.
Yes and Google Chrome has invested heavily in sandboxing and still had to ship this as a high-priority fix. I'd say sandboxing in conjunction with memory-safe languages is the future.
Chrome on MacOS was affected as well, yeah. Note that we don't know if attackers exploited the bug on platforms other than iOS, but its certainly possible that they did (I'd argue even probable).
My depth of stock trading stops at the buy low sell high level. Can someone explain a little more if you have time? What would have happened to those trades if splunk had went down 20%?
Ah yea makes sense. I do like the Brave model. Something for us to consider. We actually only do BTC transactions as the first money in and then everything is as you say a credit model but we should make that more explicit with a Mu credit or something rather than a BTC balance
I think the difference is that 3D is inherently continuous (because it is simulating a 3d space) and requires another layer of abstraction on top of the controllers to work intuitively. 2D on the other hand is pixel based which is usually discrete (the world units are uniform in pixels), and also the character movement is 1:1 mapping on the controller. These two factors make 2D feel more responsive, and I'm guessing that once VR gets better it will close the abstraction gap and make the controller mapping (body/hand movement) 1:1.

A few possibilities for two dads, and it would be analogous for two moms:

“Dad” (interchangeably either one)

Use different father words as per family preference. These could be variations of the same family word, like dad and daddy or papa and pops, or entirely separate words like dad and papa.

Use the dads’ first names, either with a father word or without. I know some people who call their grandma “Mama <name>” because she acts like a second mother; no reason it couldn’t refer to an actual mother. That happens to be a non-English example, but it could have been in English. Similarly, I know someone who addressed his (unfortunately now-deceased) parents by first name with no parent word, in English, even though he had the conventional pairing of a mother and a father.

Lots of solutions.

Thanks for writing your article and sharing! One thing I do on my other libraries is also to polyfill a few heavier things asynchronously instead of making everyone pay the price upfront, so for example I detect if a JSON polyfill is required before asynchronously loading that polyfill. I think the expectation for most things is that the browser will support them by default, and it’s ok if all/any polyfills are loaded separately and asynchronously.
I like. Probably needs to be more restrictive, like 1 per week. But the technique of rate limiting could also be applied to social media to help combat AI/Bot post/upvote flooding.
Don't delay daycare for too long. The best teachers for your young kids are often other kids. I have friends who left / kept their kids too long at home either caring for them themselves or with a nanny, and the kids were developmentally behind. No I don't believe it was permanently, but it is amazing to see how fast your kids learn to crawl, walk, talk as soon as they see how other kids do it. Everyone finds their own path, situations differ, kids differ. Just something to consider. Oh and have fun with the kids sicknesses once they are in daycare, it takes an entire year for their immune systems to adapt :D Still worth it to go earlier rather than later. (My kids went to day care at 4 months which many will say is too early, each to their own, and my wife resigned her job to stay at home, still went to daycare)

Some of it may be found in older HIG sources sure: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interface_guidelines

Also they were called GUI standards or UI at the time.

The modern equivalents called UX isn't reflecting the same conglomeration of standards and conventions though. So not talking about the newer stuff.

I'm no expert on it, and it required specialized expertise. It's been abandoned for mobile interfaces and the modern UX stuff, which often optimizes for design over functionality.

If you've never used old software, it's hard to explain. But old Apple or Microsoft GUI standards would cover the basics, but you'd also need to study the applications and how they presented their GUI.
"using embryo selection" makes your point with far fewer words.

I don't see how else the word "selection" could be interpreted in this context.
Back in the days™ there were widget libraries as part of the OS, which followed the guidelines by the OS vendor. This gave a foundation for somewhat similar behavior and standardisation of behavior. This gives usability.

Nowadays man's applications are web apps, build without such frameworks, with less UI research and even where frameworks are used they are often built with a somewhat mobile first approach.

My point is that, whether they do so intentionally or not, wealthy folks(not just western mind you) exert influence and shape policy. This includes financial as well as political capital garnered.

Case in point:

> “In this way,” says Starr, “we could really incentivize the Americans who are driving and profiting the most from climate change to decarbonize their industries and investments. It’s divestment through self-interest, rather than altruism. Imagine how quickly corporate executives, board members and large shareholders would decarbonize their industries if we made it in their financial interest to do so. The tax revenue gained could help the nation invest substantially in decarbonization efforts.”

I just set it up. Wasn't that difficult:

1. Added a new postgres db and user
2. Added a new dns name
3. Added a new cert for the new dns name
4. Added a new vhost to nginx to proxy to a new port using the new dns name and cert
5. Added a simple docker-compose to my config
6. Added a snippet to my .well-known/matrix/client

Don't imagine it will take much maintenance. Container will be updated along with the rest of my containers, and the existence of the service doesn't change anything for any existing clients that don't support sliding sync.

We were lucky to have some flexibility to spread the load. My wife and I both dropped down to 4 days a week, and my Mother-in-law looks after our son one day a week, so he has a Dad day, a Mum day, a Nana day, and 2 daycare days.

To us it feels like the optimal setup, he gets some valuable one-on-one days with all the important people in his life, gets socialised at daycare, and no one gets too exhausted looking after him all the time. I absolutely love Dad days, I don’t think I could ever give them up now.

You can probably even find the raw data for the image on one of NASA's sites soon if not already available. This isn't a spy satellite where there's a strategic need to hide the capabilities of the optics.

> It might be far better if fewer people in areas A and B could fly if it meant that more people in the other areas could

How "might" it be "far better" to the public at large for airlines to serve fewer people at a higher cost?

> Airlines aren't stupid they are just doing everything they can to deliver the least to the public while charging the most they can extract from the public.

If they did as you suggest, they'd be demonstrably and measurably delivering FAR less to the public while charging even more money. You're arguing in both directions!

Wealth (i.e. net worth) isn’t the relevant statistic for how much the market “cares” about a particular demographic. Aggregate disposable income is.

A young doctor with $100k in med school loan debt is part of that “bottom 50%” of wealth but nonetheless an extremely attractive target for “the market”.

"For a lot of people"? I'm not saying your experience is invalid, I'm just curious how big the overlap of Codepilot users and potential Helix users is. I don't know anyone personally who likes Codepilot, and only a few who have used it at all. To me it still seems to be a niche (and probably copyright law violating) product.

Such as?

Now, maybe if one person had an IQ of 80 and the other contender had an IQ of 105 it seems like it could be useful in some particular fields. But for the most part you'll run into the "I'm 200 times smarter than you because my IQ is 102 and yours is 101".

And there is no icing on the cake. Privacy is a multipolar topic and there are many pros and cons around it.

We have rights not because they are some intrinsic part of the universe, or inalienable text written by a deity, we have rights because people working together and learning from the past mistakes in history have decided that something better than what was is attainable, and the moment we forget it something worse will take its place.
It’s more that “whoever built your client has the keys to send push to it, so your synapse calls home to them.” And yes, that means that paranoid types need their own clients, and that is indeed a service that Element offers.
> If a "crappy" tool costs $10k/mo for the team and doesn't require much or any devops time to setup and maintain, it's likely cheaper than the $0/mo opensource but requires part or full time management option.

This is a total fantasy. There is no reason to expect the crappy enterprise tool that costs money will save time relative to the open source tool. In my experience enterprise tools takes more time and average and cost money. This line of reasoning (frequently pushed by dishonest sales people) is seductive because it tricks you into ignore the time cost of dealing with enterprise, not because it is correct.

The hooker scene did nothing for me, but the replicant alignment test was interesting. I think K was an interesting character.

I do agree there were some good questions asked by the film (just not anything to do with Wallace's "vision" -- boy did this ruin the movie for me!).

> Would have been fine as an independent original film and not blade runner

Yes. I would have received this way better had it been an original film with echoes of Blade Runner (so I would have been spared, for example, the ridiculous execution of clone-Rachael) instead of an official sequel.

I can accept "I'm a director who admires Blade Runner and want to do a film that is a homage to it", but cannot accept "I want to do Blade Runner 2".

For the record, I think Villeneuve is a good director and also think this was a genuine attempt at doing something good. It just happens that it was a bad idea, doomed to fail.

No, they're quite open about the capabilities of the optics (see https://webb.nasa.gov/content/forScientists/faqScientists.ht...). It's just that Europa is very far away.

Webb's mirror system has an angular resolution of about 0.1 arcseconds. Earth is currently about 630 million km from Europa (Webb is only 1.5 million km away from earth). Because the sine of theta is approximately equal to theta for values of theta near zero, you can get the diameter of a 0.1 arcsecond cone at x km from Earth by multiplying by 0.00000485 = sin(2pi/3603600).

0.1 0.00000485 * 630000000 = 305 km

The article says the pixels are about 320 km, so the math works out pretty close (for astronomy).

Those magnificent images of black holes and galaxies that are way more distant, but also way way bigger. This isn't downscaled when you compare it to gorgeous, sharper images like those at [1], a 340 light-year wide multi-image mosaic of the Tarantula Nebula, which is "only" 161000 light years away, that width is 1/500th the distance and Europa's width is 1/20,000th the distance.

In space, intuition about distances that you've built up from using your eyeballs on human-scale terrestrial objects just doesn't work, you've got to do the math.

Cellular base stations have lots of configurables. There's a lot of timing related settings in cellular radios. So you've got a thousand places to introduce a 500 Mile Email problem[0]. Some timing settings can run up against timing consts in the client firmware.

For instance towers around an airport might have some bands running with reduced power or disabled. This reduces cell size/overlap on those towers requiring more frequent handoffs between those towers. A client firmware might have a bug or unrealistic const set that fails in that frequent handoff situation. So it's a bug that only happens on some 5G bands near an airport but only during the summer because the more arid conditions increase microwave propagation by 1dB.

Please add a location. Here in Germany,
- my wife had 6 weeks maternity leave (fully paid) before birth and 1 year parental leave (65% paid)
- I have 2 months parental leave (65% paid)

In Spain for example, it appears to be 4 months (fully paid) for each parent. You can't take 8 months as mother, only the father can claim his share.

Not working in an office and still getting paid makes this decision rather easy.

Well, we don't know for sure that an exploit exists for this bug on Android yet (the original exploit was for iOS via iMessage), but there's a reasonably high chance that one has been developed already. These types of exploits are in very high demand for Android right now, I've heard some eye-watering prices being mentioned recently.

Updating Chrome on an unsupported device would fix the issue, but you would still need an Android OS upgrade to fix the issue for apps like Signal and WhatsApp. Chrome bundles its own version of libwebp, but messaging apps and other highly exposed stuff like Gmail all use the OS provided interfaces for displaying images. Hopefully we'll start getting updates for security-supported Android devices in early October.
Let’s label the steps.

I would like to point out that creating modem chips is probably way harder than it seems. It requires knowledge not available to mere mortals. Can you design a new ARM chip with a GPU? Great, you are at most a demi-god. You probably have to be true master of the Universe to be able to design real RF chips.

Working with RF seems to be a completely different game than high frequency digital circuitry. When you work with high frequency digital signals you are kind of touching RF stuff, but it is more like you do things that "are known to work" rather than completely understanding everything that is happening.
