I don't see the point of NN as long as the only "service providers" it applies to are the ones implementing layers <= 3. The main threat to online freedom is that corporate America can collude together to remove you from the internet entirely if you piss them off. See parler, 8chan, kiwifarms etc; not that i think any of those sites is particularly worth defending but there's a principle at stake which is that this can happen to anybody.

And with NN being championed by a lot of the same services that cut off the above-mentioned it seems less like something meant to preserve the freedom of the Internet and more like something meant to keep one group of corporations in control of it.

."In comparison: Unity has been in trouble for a long time. They've never posted a profit, at least since going public, and have instead accumulated an aggregate of over $2B in losses. Their main competitor (Epic) is a technological savant of a company, which has a literal money-printing machine in their closet"

The Unity actions are purely financial.

That CEO was the one that Enshitified EA, but it was profitable.

Eventually it comes down to survival, you can be the most trusted, loved, adorated company, but if you can't pay employees, what good is it whether you self enshitify to stay alive, or die.
IMHO, the book was too loose with the truth (even though it was purporting to write about mathematical truths). It's a work of fiction (beyond just filling the characters' words to each other), but that wasn't revealed until the end which left me sour. It pretending to be history right up until the end

GED isn't really related to this subject although it contains some of the same themes and characters
WFH is a two way street. Communication is key. It doesn't necessarily have to be synchronous, but most WFH companies are built around synchronous Slack communications. But whether synchronous or asynchronous, communication has to be thorough and responsive.

How do you coworkers expect to get a promotion and/or survive the next round of layoffs? Responding on Slack is the new "butts in seats" for bad managers, and good managers notice good communication.

If you're the type of guy that is always helping out your colleagues, that's behaviour that was often counter-productive. It too often wasn't noticed, and didn't show up appropriately on your 6 month review. But when you do it on Slack, it's noticed, or at least is more likely to be.
AVX10.1 is just Sapphire Rapids' AVX-512 renamed, so arguably SPR (and early Alder Lake) already support AVX10.1, just without declaring the relevant CPUID bits.

Client support depends on E-cores supporting it, and Intel have specified that they'll start with AVX10.2. I don't believe that any core has been announced with AVX10.2 support yet, and we the latest we know is Lunar Lake's ISA support.

You can stack shit as high as you want, it's still a pile of shit.
The term "surveillance business model" itself is a serious abuse of language. Surveillance is something done by states and police forces, usually to catch criminals or suppress dissent. People use it as a label for Google's business model simply because it has a negative connotation. It's a cheap tactic in my opinion.
The difference is that there is serious deterrence against the use of conventional weapons (you can't just do a quick over the border raid), but for 0days it's all you can exploit buffet.
hmmm. it does seem possible. Let me look into that, thanks!
Didn’t arbitrary data caps start back in the day when torrenting was a big problem? The ISPs started cutting people off because only piracy could explain such heavy usage. That was in the early 00’s iirc, prior to the net neutrality debate.
I've never heard such a strange opinion in my life, ever.

What is the threshold for JC not to fall into the "barely legal porn" territory? Would 38 be still fine? How do you define it? If you were there, would you try to persuade Cleopatra not to have any relations with JC? What if she insisted and you had the power to stop her? I'm really curious how far you would go.
Context: prime minister revealed that he had been spied upon, also defense minister and others. A few days later he published a letter to the king of Morocco reversing decades of Spain's position on Western Sahara. That's a competence of the parliament, not his, but that doesn's seem to matter.

A common belief is that he's being blackmailed.

Oh and Morocco is now in very good relations with Israel:

You do get into issues because video files aren't just raw frames and haven't been for ages. Plus any changes on top of the video wouldn't just pass the frames through beyond the fact that current video encoding would reencode the embedded video when the larger video it was embedded in was exported. You'd have to add support for seamless passthrough of the original frames so the signatures could be validated plus some additional layers if you wanted to enable having graphics on top of the footage.

It would require completely changing how software currently handles video editing in short.
What is insane to me is seeing people turning things which are pretty simple to build - like feature flags - into products which can hit $1.5M in ARR. This is pretty trivial to build once you have given it some thought, it sits nicely next to the work you do building health-checks into the various tiers of your infrastructure, yet there are enough people out there willing to pay for it.

I guess that this is why I don't have a bootstrapped startup - I wouldn't even consider building something like this out as a SaaS.
Maybe you could lighten up?
Someone job hopping every 12 months in a low-interest-rate climate isn’t doing it because they’re being “mistreated” by their current employer, over and over again. They’re exploiting a high demand job market to leverage their current position and get higher pay as an incentive to leave. This happened a lot in the Trump years when the economy was happy.

With regard to contracts, it’s a fair point. But what other white collar work has those?
I've just had a look into my flatpak installation, where my default "Platform" (runtime) is still vulnerable. That didn't even seem too much of a worry though since as I found out all of the flatpak apps I use that have a dependency ship their own libwebp. And sure enough, except for Firefox which is patched, none of them is.

$ flatpak update --no-related --force remove

Checking for updates...

Nothing to do.

My base system (Debian) got the patch almost two weeks ago. Might as well trash flatpak for good.
Yes, in retrospect, guns are instruments created to destruct or hurt, rather than kill. Still, the original point stands: guns are created and used for specific problems, and other tools, in which I include AI, are much more general in usage, even with potential to abuse.
This thread is caught up in semantics, which is regrettable

The thesis of the article should have been articulated "AI is disproportionately used as a surveillance technology owning to its computational requirements, the current state of industrial-user relations and the inability for legal systems to respond fast enough to protect individuals"

Edit 1: I don't know how to make that more consise without losing the meat of the argument

Edit 2: the emphasis should be directed to (yet again), industrial-user relations. We really need the equivalent to unions but for representating the rights of users. We're in an unchecked second guilded age and it's wreaking havoc on not just individuals but future businesses. These ill-gotten gains are going to devastate the tech sector, when it inevitably gets corrected in 5-x years
My problem is that GDPR/Cookie laws don't go far enough. If you can get out of the law by showing an obnoxious banner, it's not helping anyone.

Show me an ad based on the fact hat I'm reading TechCrunch, not based on the fact that I was Googling "broken lawnmower hand reach blade bolt safe??" two minutes ago.

If you believed the scare tactics at the time, losing net neutrality literally threatened the end of the internet as we know it. But my internet has worked the same before, during, and after net neutrality. I really don't get what all the fuss is about.

However, if you really do believe this is a civilization defining piece of regulation, Why leave it to the FCC? It seems like people on both sides are happy to leave this super duper important decision to a bunch of unelected bureaucrats. Everyone loves executive overreach when its their side that does it I guess.
Recent versions of Docker Desktop have a "Resource saver"[0] mode. It will de-allocate memory and CPU when containers aren't being used. If there's a leaf icon next to your Docker icon then it's in resource saver mode.

I imagine over time it will get smarter too. Right now it waits for no containers to be running for 30 seconds and enables resource saving mode but who knows what could happen in the future. Maybe it can internally profile and estimate load based on evaluating runtime stats of your contains and dynamically change the VM's resources on the fly and then expose a +% over provision threshold option or a way to turn off dynamic resource saver mode.

> I stated that on average most cars in the world sold globally will still be ICE-powered for a long time to come due to electricity constraints

China isn't pushing for EVs because they care about the planet or whatnot, but because it's much easier for them to increase electricity production than import more oil.

In 2022 they added around 87GW worth of solar panels, the annual electricity production of which would be enough to charge 36mln EVs.

And that's just solar, which may or may not be utilized fully. The additions in coal alone are enough to power a 100% EV fleet of new cars.

> China controls large parts of manufacturing globally regardless of sector, that's true for advanced electronics

That wasn't the case for solar panels as recently as in 2003, when it was Germany and Japan that combined controlled most of the market - both in sales and production capacity:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Largest_Producers_of_So...

Cars will follow the same trajectory unless western manufacturers get their heads out of their asses and do something. So far only Tesla seems to be.
Is there really such a thing as clean industry? Seems like wishful thinking.
Yes but the idea is that you trust the camera which unique and works as a physical private key.
Well, some of the main players are companies like launch darkly. Which don’t have the most stellar track record. It’s easier to stand out when the competition is mediocre.
Tyres, absolutely. Equivalent size EVs are heavier (due to the batteries) which creates more tyre wear. My brakes, however, wear far less than on a petrol car due to regenerative braking.
The mom and pop pharmacies by me keep inconvenient hours. The national chains like CVS are atrocious (long lines, terrible customer service). Switching to getting my pills delivered from Amazon took literally minutes and I haven’t had a single issue. I’m never going back to CVS!
We don't have to live in the world where people are maximally naive (even if it seems so today). That also assumes there's not a signed video available of the event, usually things are recorded by more than one person especially a speech by the president.

The biggest risk IMO is that key becomes immediately one of the most important secrets to keep since it holds the promise of validating anything you want to lie about.
Tell us what distro you recommend?
Not a merger, Overstock just bought the branding and the website.

I'm always impressed where people manage this. I bootstrapped an open source project for years before raising venture capital and still never succeeded. In the years prior I had tons of side projects that went nowhere. Turns out if you charge people for labour, it's a great starting point, but if you can then use that as an insight for a product, even better. A great example of that is basecamp but also Shopify. These things spun out of web agencies. Build things based on a need and it'll translate into something bigger, even profitable.
Now the main thread of discussion seems to be that NN is really convenient for Netflix's business model as if i should care.
As someone who introduced our org to a SaaS feature flag tool, we did it cause the cost of building out and maintaining the system in house would have been too costly. In addition we needed both FE and BE flags (multi language support).

In addition, I needed to transform the culture fast, and not wait around for people to implement a custom library for internal use.

Having said that, I have built in house flag implementations or used OSS projects and would much prefer those to using a third party.
Wait what?!?!? Now I'm intrigued.
I’d say it’s either a joke, real, or a canary.
Why don't you move to Europe permanently - maybe that will help answer your question?

I don't think thats the reason Elm went away.

Typescript's type system isn't sound and it's overly complicated. Elm's type system is by far more robust, sound, and much much easier to learn and reason about.

Elm went away because:

1.) It doesn't have a "Microsoft" behind it to champion it.
2.) It's a functional languages with "weird syntax" (I happen to think the ML style langs are beautiful, but to each their own)
3.) Probably most important, the maintainers and the community around Elm imploded.
Provided network neutrality is limited to banning 'bundling' - meaning some services do not count against a data cap but others do - I think it's an unqualified good. If it goes beyond that, it gets stickier for wireless operators - because of the shared access medium inherent to wireless, you must do much more in the way of network optimization than you would on a wireline operator.

I'd be much more comfortable with treating information services as common carriers, which has an existing regulatory and interpretive framework to decide what that means - most of which can be directly applied to information services (internet access).

I get this is a somewhat unpopular opinion, but I don't trust the courts to decide cases which are highly technical in nature.
Uber Eats and Getir ink tie-up in Europe for speedy grocery deliveries
Well, evolution doesn't happen nearly as much based on disease resistance, now that we have antibiotics. It doesn't happen nearly as much based on ability to survive famine, now that we have modern agriculture. It doesn't happen nearly so much based on ability to survive childbirth, now that we have hospitals. And so on.

That may have been their point.
> When I write real world code, ..., I write an event handler, which changes some data and then calls the parts of the UI that need an update.

That's your choice, and I'd argue you're creating messier code slower than someone who uses a UI framework that deals with reactivity in a principled manner. Having to synchronize the UI and data manually creates room for subtle desync errors which just can't happen in, say, Vue.

The Air Force museum in Dayton has a YF-12, which was the prototype of the interceptor variant. It's readily distinguishable from the A-12 and SR-71 because the chines don't extend to the front of the nose. This so that the nose cone could be made of material that is transparent to radar.
Currently difficult to display something a modern smartphone camera will not be able to distinguish from real, right? (Pixel artifacts, lighting too consistent, etc. right?).

Pegasus was used aginst Catalan independence leaders by the Spanish government. That was certainly the Madrid government, acting with the compliance of the Spanish judiciary.

This story is about the use of Pegasus by someone against the Spanish premier Pedro Sanchez. It's at least plausible that it was done by a Spanish government agency; after all, Spanish security agencies already have a licence from NSO to use Pegasus against Spanish politicians. And the Madrid establishment is not well-disposed to socialists (such as Sanchez).

It strikes me that this judge simply isn't willing to investigate the Spanish security services for bugging their own Prime Minister.

Your poor take is so unrelated to the article that it suggests you didn't even bothered to read the article you're trying to criticize. It completely fails to even take into account the very basic premise presented in the article. It adds nothing to the discussion, and it reads as uninformed contrarian jabs.

I'm not downplaying cyber weapons, but I would argue that conventional weapons have caused significantly more damage to innocent people over the last few years than any exploit. Deaths in the hundreds of thousands, easily, not to mention injuries, damage of property, etc.

Also, the use of cyber weapons is almost meaningless without physical force to back it up. A dictator (or Spain) can spy on their dissidents, sure, but they won't even have any dissidents if they don't have the guns to stay in power.

While 0days are still a weapon, and I agree they can and do in fact cause harm to innocent people, I don't think that this comparison is even close.
Seems like a bad analogy given the existence of "free" shipping vs additional charge.
