My interpretation of that quoted sentence is the same as yours. That’s my point. The RFID system is a kind of vendor lock-in, and I don’t go for that.

If the RFID system was truly meant to improve the user experience, Bambu would offer it to other filament producers to make it a standard, and really make it useful to the user.

I gave up on consumer inkjet printers because they all seem to be wildly expensive on the consumables. I have a Brother laser now that is still using the same toner it came with 10 years ago. I do not have an account with brother.com.

I know this printer is bad-ass, technically. If that was something I needed to optimize for, I would probably hold my nose and get one. I might actually still do that!

But for now, my existing Monoprice printer still works, and it respects me as a user.
Was just talking myself through why this forum would be unfriendly to this guy Tony. A forum that is run by YCombinator, a company that presumably values entrepreneurship.

And my take is that both this forum and YC are fairly aligned on "high impact" ideas and don't value people like Tony, monetizing basic ideas using social media influence.
There was a whole writeup (on here, IIRC) about the engineering behind the only (or one of less than a handful) types of planes that can transit Antarctica during the cold, dark months.

The fuel freezes, the oil freezes, the rubber in the tires and gaskets becomes brittle, and basically nothing normal works. I recall it being similar-but-different to the SR71 modifications, where the parts are loose and continuously leaks fluids because the materials all change shapes so much in the environment they're designed for. And of course it all has to return to the initial state for (a safe) landing.
Do these cross the blood-brain barrier? I suppose if the worm has made it into the brain they would have to?
Experimentation: The Power of Continuous Improvement
It’s so goofy when foreigners think the US is forcing other countries to do x y z things, like “have airport security.”

Your airports have security because your leaders learned the same things on 9/11 that the US did. The threat landscape changed immensely. Hijackings were not super uncommon, but they were never that dangerous because it’s hard to do much damage without killing yourself too.

What 9/11 revealed is that there are actually people who can be convinced to fly themselves into buildings on loaded aircraft, and yes I do think “there will be bomb dogs” and “there will be X-rays” etc are factored into bad actors’ thinking about how to commit bad actions.

Or, you know, I suppose you could think that there were only 19 people in the whole wide world who would’ve possibly done what they did and luckily we got rid of them all in one day.

Seems wishful to me though, given that we see thematically similar attacks on a weekly basis throughout the Muslim world. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
iPhone has an impressive camera (set) for its size, and puts out nice images, yet it still fails to capture the dynamic range of an old DSLR in many cases.

The difference will be much more noticeable when compared to a latest generation full-frame sensors (Sony A7, Nikon Z, Canon R families), both in dynamic range, and color accuracy.

While I'll not be carrying a full frame mirrorless everywhere, it's evident that both devices will have its place.

To close, I'll be probably carrying a iPhone 15 or 16 in my pocket next. Knowing what I'm going to get is a nice plus.

To not be too pedantic about "ever", the current prosumer camera market is not shrinking, is growing, and the main manufacturers are increasing the pace of production, as models like the Fujifilm X100v have become highly sought after, but new, cameras that Fuji can't make enough of. Sales of the main full frame shooters Sony, Canon, Nikon, etc. are selling well, and we're getting active R&D on them. And the x100v is a "point and shoot", of course, but far more expensive (the real price for one is >$2k), far better image quality, and far better build quality.

Past the ~2000s these weren't really ever the cameras that laypeople bought anyway. Back when they were DLSRs, the cost and size were always prohibitive once cheap point and shoots were around. Cheap point and shoots are dead (but again, cameras like the x100v or ricoh gr are selling so well they can't make enough of them), but the interchangeable lens camera market is by no means in decline relative to the near past.

From one perspective, this crime makes the case for walled-garden app stores. From another perspective, it should shame the phone/OS producers for such awful security practices. If the phone/OS producers cannot protect users from these crimes, why should the users trust them and their "secure" app stores?

I think the gaming space is the secret key for broadening interest in FPGAs.

That's how I deal with gaming and intrusive anticheat systems for a while now - we have a dedicated computer for gaming in our house, with the browser and most apps restricted. This is the only way to somewhat tolerate a ring0 spying system that also insists I have no hypervisors anywhere in sight.
And on the opposite side of the stupid-examples spectrum: any tech company that hasn't had a computer security breach should fire their security team. All they're doing is spending a lot of money to make their developer's lives a lot harder.

Anyone with clean floors should fire their janitors.

Etc...

Those don't mean every security spend is worthwhile and justified; but Simpsons quotes also don't mean that no security spend has any effect.

The comparison would've smashed the iPhone harder, if they'd used a good longer lens. My last student/amateur photojournalism kit was 2 APS-C bodies with a 70-200/4L and an old (but unusually sharp copy) 17-35/2.8L, plus a 50/1.4 or 28/1.8 in the bag. And very useful gadgets, like lens hoods, polarizers, and the occasional powerful strobe. I used the 70-200/4L for the majority of shots, and it was glorious.

Also, muscle memory on the controls of a pro/prosumer body and lens is real. With a little practice, a lot of the mechanics of framing the shot, focal length, and selecting the autofocus point are automatic and happen in an instant. When a smartphone could do that at all, it would do it poorly, and you'll lose the moment.

Lately, I've made an exercise of using only smartphone cameras -- iPhone and Pixel -- and it usually ends up as uninspiring snapshots, and now I can't be bothered to try.

Then it got worse. A few days ago, I was testing the optically longer camera of a new smartphone, on a car license plate. The phone appeared to be doing bad processing of the sensor, such that what in reality were gentle curves of front of the parked (and cooled-down) car, came out looking like fairly clear shots of something snake-like wiggly. I didn't knowingly have any "AI enhancement" feature enabled -- it just decided to go with lies, rather than deliver a much more useful if blurrier image.
I found a snail, only about 3mm long, in a thoroughly-washed arugula salad I made at home. They can be small enough to be easily overlooked and at the same time large enough to not wash through the holes of a colander, and they may be stuck on the leaves instead of falling out like stones.

If anything its showing disrespect towards his fans who pay for his life. Ok, maybe he felt one way or another about the song or the time it was written or who knows. That being said you should be mature enough to set that aside and understand the value this song has brought to your fans. He’s a professional musician after all and should probably not pout about it at this point. Its not like this is some new concept with the job of professional musician on tour, its part and parcel.
I've done the "whole new thing" before, too. 20ish years ago, tho I only have a few fragments of what I worked on back then: https://github.com/rdaum/mica being one of them I found on an old drive. Not complete.

But sticking with compatibility has allowed me to enforce development discipline, basically. And then I'll move it onwards from there. I have many ideas. And a product concept (if I could find an investor...). But I felt it important to start with a thing with existing foundation and use cases before doing the exciting stuff/changes.

Re: world state / transactions -- yeah, basically all I/O and mutations happen in a transactional context, and then at commit time conflicts are resolved; if they're not resolve-able, the transaction is retried in a new state. As for overhead, yes potentially maybe a lot, but it's also a solvable problem; this is how an MVCC SQL database (like, even Postgres) works. TLDR it's likely inefficient now, but I believe I can make it efficient. And I think it's the best way to solve the shared world state problem and still meet user's expectations of consistency. Original LambdaMOO had a global interpreter lock and only one user was mutating the world at a time, in their given tick slice. Not gonna scale.

Re: the MOO client, it's `rmoo.el`: https://github.com/lisdude/rmoo -- it's been around for a long time (25, 30 years?) and it and/or MOO.el (another emacs one) are how/why I learned emacs in the first place. I had to minor patch my local copy to make it work with emacs 29.1, though I don't know elisp well enough to say whether my patch is the right thing to do or not, so...

EDIT: I just re-read and saw you asked whether each new verb call creates a new state, and actually it's not that. It's each new command or network transaction, which can in fact lead to a chain of verb (method) calls. Recall a MUD has a command loop, so basically a transaction begins at command entry, and commits when all the invoked methods/verbs provoked from that complete.
Can't say I follow specific sites. I tend to check news agreggators, or those that have 'random' links like HN.

Then when I check a link, I often look around on those sites to see if something else jumps out. Over time this produces some favourites due to their subject focus and/or style of reporting. Some current favourites:

Slashdot, ArsTechnica, Wired, El Reg (The Register), The Onion, Hackaday, EEVblog, and any sciency site that is well-sourced & reports reasonably accurate.

And leaning towards hw / electronics, general science or engineering advances, sometimes political subjects, not coding or such. But open to anything that expands my know-how or exercises my brain. :-)

Btw: some sites are more interesting for their comment sections than the article content.

At that level you typically set up what's referred to as a "family office"

Leeks are easier than salad though. The part with the roots is "closed" so just cut off the tip and rinse a bit. For the end with the leaves you make a 3-4 cm lengthwise cut where the stem ends, then you can hold this part open and rinse under running water.
The problem is legitimate ticketholders don't like this. You're going to a concert with your SO that you had to buy tickets for six months in advance, then you break up and get together with someone else. Now instead of transferring the ticket you paid for to your new SO, you're stuck either going with your ex (that'll go over well) or going by yourself. People don't like this.

I think that's a significant understatement of the prevailing condition.
1. You don’t need to install any extension, `code tunnel` is builtin, the extension is UI stuff using the tunnel. No need for any extension to open a reverse shell.

2. It’s about an attacker exploiting the feature, the attacker is enabling it and doing the login. Whether you need to enable it yourself is largely irrelevant, in fact you’re probably more likely to notice an ongoing attack if you use the feature yourself.

Anyway, default is pointless, a gadget is a gadget as long as the bits are there and easily executable.

You've misunderstood the situation completely.
The first job of a persistent attacker is to gain acceess.
The second job of a persistent attacker is to pivot that access from illegitimate to legitimate, so that by the time their TTPs become IOCs, log rotation has wiped that illegitimate access from the books and all their access looks legitimate.

What we have here is a way for an attacker using shady means (email-delivered 0day, parking lot thumbdrive, browser drive-by compromise) to take over a computer and then drop a signed package that will allow for remote control over time that looks completely legitimate. To a network IDS, that access will look like an authorized cloud tunnel, completely normal. To a file scanner, it will look like an vendor-signed binary, the gold standard. To the complete defense-in-depth stack, the entire c2 chain is cloaked in legitimacy. If you get a single detection at all for the initial compromise (not possible with 0day), the entire rest of the kill chain looks like legitimate access and vanishes.

It's a nightmare for defense in depth and hunt teams.
How do you get that your machine(or one of the many you are observing) was breached, if the attacker is not doing obvious damage? I think monitoring connections is standard procedure to find this out?
I feel like you missed the point of Imba. It's not solely focused on code compression (although that does appear to be a secondary objective).

The items which would be useful for an emergency situation are largely readily available commercially, and/or depend on both local and personal circumstances. There are guidelines for packing a go-bag or bug-out bag, e.g.,

<https://www.state.gov/global-community-liaison-office/crisis...>

<https://www.outsideonline.com/outdoor-gear/how-to-build-the-...>

Many of the specific supplies that are useful are dual-purpose, and may include preserved or shelf-stable food, camping, recreational, or work-out supplies.

The most critical needs are usually fairly brief, the day or two before rescuers can reach people, or during which evacuations are ongoing. Those in more remote regions may want to keep longer-term stores, perhaps a few weeks worth of supplies, but will likely have much of this on hand already.

Keep in mind that a go-bag is to go, and if it weighs much over 25 kilos / 50 lb or so, becomes a challenge to movement itself.

Wrong. Silicon image sensors are benchmarked by their "quantum efficiency" - the number of electrons generated by a photon. That number is something like 0.5, which isn't far from 1.0. There is very finite room for improvement in sensors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_efficiency

Now, the following point is not well-known, but the most important thing that determines image quality is simply the frontmost piece of glass in a camera system. Not the sensor size, not the ISO. The front glass determines how many photons you receive per second, how much the depth of field is, and how noisy the image is.

For example, shoot with a certain lens on a full-frame sensor. Now take that lens, put a "speed booster" behind it, and shoot with a crop sensor. Both images will come out essentially the same in terms of field of view, depth of field, and noise. Again, the front glass is what matters, and everything behind it in the optical system are just technical details.

Also as a reminder, shot noise is proportional to 1/sqrt(n), where is n is the number of photons. There are a very finite number of photos you can collect per pixel per aperture per second in real-world shooting situations, and that number is something like 10000. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_noise
That's not how it works. There's negligible "overhead" to paint a famous work of art, but that doesn't mean the sale price of the art will be negligible too.

That's because like fine art, the mechanism that produces block space can only generate a very limited amount per unit time, and latent demand is always orders of magnitude higher than the supply. You can't just flood the market with fresh Ethereum block space any more than you can flood the market with fresh Banksies.

Yes, ChatGPT is good enough to help writing this stuff. It is still work though. Work which is not valued much and which most engineers like to avoid.

Personally, I like it. For me, there is no better way to achieve clarity than writing about something. So I don’t really understand why they like to avoid it. They apparently value clarity less than I do but that doesn’t explain it. “Everybody is different“ doesn’t really explain anything.
