Love OrbStack... been using it since I discovered it and instantly took over my Docker workflow.

What are your plans for Virtual Machines? I know GUI support is planned but are you planning for Virtualization features to challenge the likes of maybe Parallels?

EDIT:
Also, are you planning on supporting macOS VMs?
He shows evidence that NSA employees were aware of this guy’s work and implying they may have made up a similar name. I don’t think that’s racist. The Satoshi pseudonym had to come from somewhere, no?

Google Maps should change the way that edits work. My experience suggests the current approach is to require independent verification, via volunteers, of too many user edits.

If I were to update the hours of a local business with a photo, that gets addressed within a couple hours, since the photo offers a form of verification. But to correct the location of a feature often takes far longer.

A pharmacy in my community had its location wrongly recorded in Google Maps, leading to people trying to drive through a very wrong route. The pharmacists himself had tried and couldn't change his business' location. I made the edit (as a "level 7 guide" for what it's worth) and even then it required another 50 days before it was verified. In that case, it was likely awaiting another user to verify.

I checked the map today while thinking about it: Ten months later, the marker has been moved back, to the incorrect location!

I fixed the pharmacy location because Google Maps was hurting my pharmacist, a good guy with a small business that I like. But to go out of my way to verify other edits, I'm not quite sure what the motivation is. Google should pay users -- offer some small remuneration -- for correct edits and for verification of edits. They already offer similar payment for information in other contexts: offering Google Play credits with their Google Rewards survey platform. Why not employ that on Google Maps, which is earning them around $5B/year?

Another option might be to trust (then verify) for users who have a history of valid edits.
But the automation that declined the edit suggestion saved Google 37 cents in manual labor.
Umm, don't forget about the US/world. Bush administration got a lot of key help from them, just to name one example.
What do you mean by decisions?
"As we continue to take a responsible approach to generative AI, we’re adding new Content Credentials which uses cryptographic methods to add an invisible digital watermark to all AI-generated images in Bing – including time and date it was originally created. We will also bring support for Content Credentials to Paint and Microsoft Designer."

This is really interesting to me. I've heard discussions about doing this, but is this the first time we're actually seeing it implemented in image software?
GDP grew, wages not so much.

Similar to the current situation in the U.S. where profits are rising but workers are not benefiting much.

Economic prosperity seldom means higher wages.

Not sure how else to read it. The implication was that Murdoch divided families, and that he used deception to do it, and they were dumb or foolish enough to fall for it.

I get the anger at Murdoch. I just wonder why the same anger isn't directed at other half dozen TV news outlets that are equally untrustworthy.
How can you make use of this info? Like which tool allows you to tighten down to a specific torque?
If the children and their families are unaware of the database, then there's a lack of accountability. I also saw no mention of controls in the article, though if there's controls that the families know nothing about, then they would be somewhat moot.

Orbstack even comes with working ipv6 out of the box unlike Docker Desktop for Mac which STILL doesnt have support for ipv6
The point on topic is that people must pick one:

1. allow encrypted anonymous communication and the ability to use that to defend democracy

2. disallow encrypted anonymous communication and the ability to get away with sharing deepfake nudes

Both of these are bad, but one is clearly much worse than the other.

Anyone calling for steps as drastic as internet censorship to stop one comparatively minor issue are clearly unaware of the consequences of that road.
Oh No, I Kinda Want to Work for Elon
I come out of the woodworks every now and again whenever I see Dvorak mentioned in any context. I really despise its popularity as an alternative keyboard layout because I feel it wasted a good year of my life.

1) Few people will have benefit of learning Dvorak. What benefits they see comes from learning how to properly touch type by forcefully breaking bad habits with their original (usually QWERTY) keyboard layout.

2) Switch to Colemak or any more modern layout that takes advantage of bigrams/trigrams better. Colemak is genuinely superior to QWERTY beyond just learning to touch type.

I used to type 170~ WPM on QWERTY. Sustained. By all means an accomplished typist. I learned Dvorak well enough to get back up to 120~ WPM but saw no real benefits of using it: I already knew how to touch type. But QWERTY was causing my hands to cramp up over time and so I was on the search for improving that. I gave Colemak a try and it was a great relief. I only type 150~ WPM on Colemak after some years of using it but the lack of pain from typing for long periods of time is worth the small hit to my typing speed.

Almost every single person I see who touts benefits of learning Dvorak was typing <60WPM in QWERTY and did not know how to properly touch type. The benefits they see weren't from using Dvorak: it was from finally learning how to touch type properly.

Apologies as I know Dvorak wasn't really the focus of your post here. But in an attempt to perhaps make it still relevant: change every now and then is good. It can break you out of bad habits you didn't know you had learned and sometimes open you up to new ways of accomplishing something. As other replies have mentioned - I'm a big fan of Helix and gave up Neovim for it.
If it was indeed an off-by-one error (hard to see why not), I wonder if it is one of the more embarrassing ones.

If it was indeed a spirit-medium con (who could say otherwise), I wonder if it is one for the ages.

If it was indeed a Feng Shui conflict (many might say it was), I wonder if it is one of the more consequential ones.
But, and this is not meant as criticism or insult as I have no idea how Splunk works, it is just based on other comments; do you know what license your company has with them? It appears that if you are paying them millions, it scales fine, otherwise, it does not?
Thanks! We're very focused on ease of use so glad it worked out :)
The problem is that Google has a review process with a human in the loop for most of the submitted changes (unlike OSM). This makes it easier for them to negotiate relationships with data providers, but it also means a lot of things aren't enacted quickly enough to be useful.
sure, but I'm providing the context for why they'd even ask.
What is prompt velocity? It's not mentioned in the blog post.
A thought I might know where this is based on your description alone, and I was right, I think. I assume you're talking about the merge from 405N to 520E? I've thought the same thing about the wrong directions too.
While I didn't read the contract, I'm halfway sure that it says that they can terminate the contract for any reason.
Negligent in updating maps that they were being warned about over years. I don't personally believe this makes them liable, though.

I think liability of this is complex being that it's unclear to me who owns the bridge and road leading to it, as well as how obvious it is to a driver that they shouldn't have been driving on that road. There shouldn't need to be a wall preventing drivers from flying off every cliff, but if there was a normal-looking road leading off the edge it's a little different.
> The imperial customs (it's hard to even call it a system) have no internal consistency.

"Internal consistency" doesn't matter. Virtually nobody ever has to convert miles to yards; the use cases for measuring a distance in miles and the use cases for measuring a distance in yards almost never overlap. For the rare cases where they do, the units do have an integer conversion.

For the use cases that do commonly overlap, e.g. inches and feet, you get a useful-for-that-specific-domain conversion factor of 12. Some domains use decimal miles or decimal inches and that's totally fine; sounds to me like they didn't need the metric system after all.

But if you're going to be so insistent on "internal consistency", riddle me this: why do we measure time in hours, days, weeks, months, and years rather than in decaseconds, hectoseconds, kiloseconds, megaseconds, etc.?

> if someone is doing detailed work in millimetres, someone is planning a house's rooms in metres, and someone is organizing a town's land in kilometres, they can all work with each other

These people never work with each other. This is a fantasy.
I was really impressed with Microsoft's paper on llm architectures, where instead of using giant chips with giant memory busses, they pipe together a bunch of cheap, monolithic, SRAM heavy SoCs.

This would work really well for something like Llama, where the layers can be easily split up into SRAM sized chunks, and the whole thing can be pipelined as long as many users are making requests.
Did you read the entire article? Or just the beginning?

> After a relatively short period of fierce competition, the deregulated era quickly turned to consolidation and cost-cutting, as dozens of airlines either went bankrupt or were acquired.

> Deregulation even failed to deliver the one thing it is sometimes credited with: lowering prices. Airfare did get cheaper in the years after the 1978 deregulation law. But the cost of flying had already been falling before deregulation, and it kept falling after at about the same rate.
When you file a lawsuit you generally name anyone you can possibly imagine being associated, and then let the courts dismiss people.

I've been named in a lawsuit before, where my contractor's employee was suing my contractor for non-payment on a job (not my job), but named me in the case anyway since my job was going on at the same time. I just went to court prepared to defend myself and the first thing the judge did was ask why I was named in the suit.

Then I was promptly dismissed from the suit but asked to stay as a witness.
In difference to this case cases like google routing people over ofroad countryside roads (e.g. through the middle of Australia, desert routes, tundra routes etc.) should be something you could/should be able to sue them over.

But this case looks like the local government majorly fucking up.

In general the maps are updated in many countries based on information from the respective department for road whatever.

It pretty common that when random road closures are not in gmaps that it's because the respective official channels didn't publish that information.

Like how is google supposed to know when a random road gets absconded, temporary closed, newly opened etc. if no one tells them?

And random complains from people using the service aren't really a reliable (or trustable) source.
Why do you think there is a "right" way?
We do a lot to prevent it, part of the reason we waited to launch. There are also hard caps with the free plan.
Do you consider Fox News to be something other than "corporate media?" Is News Corp. not a corporation? Are they motivated by something other than profit? Please let us know.
Helix is very cool, and I liked playing around with it. But it doesn't support Copilot, which is an instant deal killer for a lot of people, myself included.

I'm sticking with Neovim, especially because I work close to a lot of embedded stuff where being handy with stock vim comes in handy quite frequently.
Appears pretty obvious! Hard to believe they will be able to keep the profits.

Is there any legit way in which whoever made this trade could have got a wind of a potential acquisition without relying on inside knowledge?
Yep, a lot of little things :)
Maybe I didn't make it clear, people will be in the right lane and the assistant will instruct them last second to move to the left lane. This creates a dangerous situations as many US drivers do not care about traffic laws and cross the median. This is dangerous since this is generally unexpected to other drivers who will often have to sverve / brake to avoid collissions.
Humidity. Passive cooling works great in arid climates.
More garbage for an already obscenely bloated product.
And they keep doing this again in multiple categories.

AirPods alone are worth $50B. They are just easier to use with devices than the bluetooth devices I owned previously.
As a Fosstodon user I'm quite happy with this. Not so much because I care about the sense of community but because it helps reduce the burden of running the server. I imagine that this makes spam accounts basically a non-issue (if users keep invite spammers they can be removed or have invite privileges revoked) which is great for the moderators and also makes Fosstodon more trustworthy in the eyes of other servers and less likely to be blocked/defederated. (not that I think that was an issue before). I don't think any particular server needs infinite growth, and growing by referral helps create a chain of trust.

Personally I think a lot of services on the web would be better if they were invite-only where invites are free to provide by any member. It seems one of the few ways to effectively cut down on spam, abuse, botting and astroturfing. Mastodon servers are an even better version of this because even if you can't find someone to invite you you can still participate from another server (and if needed you can run your own).

On that note if anyone wants a Fosstodon invite I'd be happy to provide one if I can tell from your posting history, blog or other online presence that you are a real person. (At my own discretion and offer may be revoked at any point.)
Thank you for the quote. I think I’ve commented before something to the point of “what’s left for Ghibli?” Their most promising young directors left to start their own studio, Goro Miyazaki has his good and bad movies, but doesn’t look like the strength to carry on the legacy on his own. And then what?

Well, nothing. The buck ends with Miyazaki and maybe that is okay.

Ghibli has managed to produce movies with an unrivaled charm, but that is not to say other directors don’t make absolutely amazing animated movies in Japan.
Both were designed for both.

SGML might not have been designed for data serialization (it was designed for document authoring), but the XML standard committees and company representatives were heavily interested in generic data serialization.

And YAML was also designed for human readable editing and serialization of configuration among other data serialization needs. "Configuration files" is literally the first use case for it mentioned in the standard's homepage:

"Even though its potential is virtually boundless, YAML was specifically created to work well for common use cases such as: configuration files, log files, interprocess messaging, cross-langauge data sharing, object persistence and debugging of complex data structures".

But the point is moot. What each language was "designed for" is irrelevant to what it's predominantly used for throughtout the industry.

People found a use for them, regardless of whether their designers might or might not foreseen it (they had), and for this use which is what interests people, there are certain issues.

If the answer was as easy as "just use a language better designed for that use case and it will solve your issues", they would have done it already.

Some have their hands tied because vendors/projects/etc they use, enforce TOML or YAML or XML and have to use them too to work with them. Others find alternatives worses for their use case, but still don't consider the one they use (TOML/YAML/XML/etc) as optimal.
"Cares about privacy" in the sense that they purchase products specifically with that being one of the top concerns?

> Does he genuinely not consider himself part of the "elite"?

You are imagining said """elite""" as being one single group, whereas the view presented is that of some powerful parties and agents which are countered by other reactive forces.
I love Postgres and use it for different projects but for inboxes.com which has a very high insert rate coupled with auto delete by time stamp Mongo up until now has been very kind to me. We sometimes have 1000 incoming emails per second and high usage of our API and it just works.
I've had it four times, but I've got lung issues, so it's not entirely surprising. First time was before there was a vaccine, and the successive times were half as bad as the previous time. Came very close to dying the first time, that was very unpleasant.
Google offers the service as instructions for how to get somewhere. Google and these other tech companies hide behind excuses that claim these systems are so complex and scaled that they can't possibly be responsible for when they're wrong. But it is they, as in Google, that built, offer, market, and implicitly claim it all works, not the people. Then they cowardly bury in the terms and conditions that it can't be trusted.

I am all for tech companies being held liable for what they market. Especially here, because at the end of the day, Google doesn't even care about providing you directions They just want your data that they can resell. But that's not how they market Google Maps.

I also think the county should be responsible, but that is in addition.
I have contributed a very small amount of code to Godot. In the process of doing so I was very impressed with the entire process. They were very supportive and quick to respond. Overall it was one of the best open-source contribution interactions I have experienced.
As I recall, Murdoch-owned media was very much pro-war in the early 2000s, and dared to call anyone who opposed the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan un-patriotic and pro-terrorist.
I think having a human in the loop is essential, if only for catching things like my petty vandalism or honest mistakes.

Wikipedia has humans in the loop too but doesn't take forever.

It's more a matter of transparency and tracking, I think, never knowing what happens to an edit once it's submitted. In most similar user submission systems you at least get status updates if not outright version control and ticket tracking.
Scope creep in the Mozilla Foundation. (Useful research for sure though.)

If I had to take a wild guess, your pharmacist's business is probably incorporated at the old address, and they haven't updated their incorporation documents.

Google periodically pulls those from public records, and most likely this is why the marker moved back.
Firefox? Some sites are piss-poor optimised for Chrome only.
This will be great for governments who want to silence critics of corruption. Just place the targeted media the law is intended for on the targets phone and bam! You have a case against them to discredit anything that persons says from then on.

If I were an ISP in Briton. I would shutdown until this law is overturned.
You're generalizing to the overall population, but "tw04" already said he was leaving the airline, so I guess he's determined that alternatives do exist and aren't that inconvenient.

That's true. Grind LC/sys design and then apply to every top company (not just FAANG) and get referrals everywhere you can. I got interviews places that had passed on me a few weeks before just by getting a referral.
Knowing about the acquisition puts you in possession of material nonpublic information. It's unlawful to trade on the basis of such information whether you work at the company or not. Passing it along is 'tipping' and acting on it is still 'insider trading.'
> My biggest question is which makes/models can have the surveillance anti-features disabled by unplugging a specific module or two, while losing as little legitimate functionality as possible.

Onstar usually lives in a box that can be physically disconnected. That'll keep them from spying on you/your car even if you've never activated or used their service. I never enable bluetooth on my phone, but my car still has an AUX port and I'll plug my phone into that. If I charge my phone by plugging it into the car's USB ports I use a data blocker.
If something crypto-related is ripe for invention then they may as well invent it even just to keep an eye on it. Plus at the last count, they’re $60billion up if they did invent it, and don’t need the money right now.
Great, finally someone who actually does that. So many examples here with people whining about their Dropbox thingy in 4 lines of Perl but never releasing anything for us to check out. Well done!
>But recently I've gotten more sensitive to cases where we acknowledge that something is the government's job (e.g. protecting kids from violence), but then we insist that that job should be done poorly.

We don't insist they do the job poorly. Instead, we set things up so that they need to cover their own ... asses when they take action. Instead of making a rational decision on a per situation basis, we get things like "0 tolerance" rules; so that the authority figure can say "I was just following the rules". Because if they make a judgement call, SOMEONE will flip out and they'll get fired. And that leads to all kinds of horrible outcomes

- Child brings a plastic knife to school to cut their lunch with, they're suspended because it's a weapon

- Child is attacked by a bully and is suspended, because they were involved in a fight

Adding information gathering systems that will quickly wind up being abused, but have very little possibly positive value... doesn't help with what's currently wrong with the system.
I don't think it's just the UK.

I think the issue is that it's very hard to have open discussions about accepting that certain events are unavoidable and preferable to the second order impacts of trying to 'solve the problem'.

It's hard to talk about at least in part that 'the problem' in these situations tends to be a terrible event that can be avoided, but only avoided by doing lots of lots of 'ever so slightly terrible' things. And so it takes a toll on the soul to look at the balance and say that we should live with 'the problem'.
Why build in this age when too many open source solutions backed by opentelemetry standard are available. Use fluentbit/vector/otel-collector to capture data and send to some open source solution.
> In C, if you have a declaration `int x[2][3];`, the expression `x[0][4]` is a legal way to access one of the elements

Is it really? Does the C-compiler guarantee that your 6 ints will be stored in a contiguous memory area?
this is the kind of scope creep I love to see!
I think I have to dispute the idea that hosting a web service like Pleroma "should be simple". It's a complex system with multiple dependencies and an external database server.

Of course, it would be nice if somebody made a full-featured fediverse server that was self-contained with no dependencies, did backups through a web UI, and was generally as easy as possible for someone without expertise to self-host. Pleroma isn't designed for that. Neither is Mastodon.
Well, the land is owned by Strip of Land Holdings 123. But they have a contractual relationship with Bridges 876 Inc to maintain the bridge, and the owners of Bridges 876 Inc are to be found at a PO box in the Cayman Islands. Hang around outside the post office down there long enough and I'm sure you'll see the owners pop up.
