Yeah, that's true, and I did that when I built a 'streamer' from a Pi 2. It was great. At some point though the quality of the built-in jack did improve, and so when I built a sound/lighting effect box for a toy theatre with the Pi 4 it was plenty good enough to use, and made it simpler and cheaper to put together.

There are loads of cool projects for the Pi (synths etc) which chuck out audio and sound good enough through the built-in jack.
Christchurch is a prime example of failed city planning. Completely carbrained and mostly unwalkable.
Miami is filled with Latin-American families with a poor view of latin-American revolutionaries.
I suppose that you are in a position to be measuring the differences in societal sentiment re different news events?

I agree. Society’s attitude toward DV / violence against women is abhorrent. This sort of whataboutism is not the answer. It doesn’t help any cause. You’re doing it for selfish reasons.

Do you have some examples of someone being “cancelled” in this way?
Rough and tumble play can still be playful. Playfulness is a state of mind, not a mode of soft play
Am I the only one who either:

- waits ~6 months (from release time) before upgrading to a major macOS version

- usually skips 1 version in between (e.g., I'm on macOS Monterrey, haven't updgraded to Ventura. I'll upgrade to Sonoma in a few months)
Finally upgraded after several years of skipping new models to a 15 pro, it got very hot the first day but has been perfectly fine since with heavy usage. Maybe it was initial indexing or apps installing, but no issues since. I did disable background app refresh for a bunch of apps I didn’t need it for.

My battery life is considerably improved over my previous iphone.
fair enough, i suppose i'm interested in using it for mainly audio/music applications and so am biased. no use for an RTC. demonstrates really how hard it is to keep everyone happy! over the years i think they've traded things off fairly well.
I found this to be not true in practice when working with graphs.

Having access to high performance explicit loops and ifs/masks allows one to focus on the hard parts of the algorithms, rather than on the purely incidental puzzle how to best avoid spending time in the Python runtime.

> Not really... people made these claims without any testing, as per usual.

Come on… I was around at the time and played with it on phones that supported it. From a user’s perspective it was very bad. Some people desperately wanted it to happen and they had their reasons, but saying that I am negative without having tested it is pointless speculation, and wrong.
i still won't buy a phone without one! i wonder how long i'll be able to hold out...
this is somewhat appealing.

it seems like it's targeted to technical people.

it raises questions like.. how can non technical people use it? what are the other api provider options can users use? will it be extendable, can other developers create extensions on top of it? how could it perform on non-mac devices and users in areas with non gigabit speed? are there business use-cases fpr this? what specific roles, teams, and industries can benefit from it? how soon can you ship a working product to your potential users? do you feel going fully open source or open core? do you feel like building it in public on twitter so you can tweet about it and get more feedback along the way?

personally i'm not interested in it (i'm just a very private guy, and i prefer my notes written manually) - but that's me, and i don't speak for everybody else.

if you're scratching your own itch building it that will be cool as hell, i'm sure there are other people (users and developers alike) interested on these problems and solutions, and maybe you just need to reach them at the right platforms e.g. on twitter, slack, discord, or telegram group.. it varies.
> No statistics are actually cited for the "mounting evidence" but the 15% is cited to a "single study" -- so is 85% overprescribed by definition, if they're not helping?

I don't know, but could be. Anecdotally all my friends were taking anti-depressants at some points for their life, including me. But not because they struggled with sever depression, but because of "stress" in life. I used to fallback to antidepressants when I had struggles at work, relationships, etc. Just go to a doctor and say you feel sad and not motivated, and you have a prescription.

I don't do it anymore. I think depression exists, but what I have had wasn't depression, and I could have resolved it without drugs with tons of side effects.
Yeah I recently found this out. It never really did work that well, I did manage to telnet into an SMTP server and manually send an email but for anything else it struggled.

I wonder if TCP over ICMP would work better.
“Dog bites man” wouldn’t make headlines, but “man bites dog” would. Doesn’t say anything about the level of human suffering and empathy.
Teensy is BRILLIANT - but a bit different to the Pi. It's quite convenient to have a 'real computer' you can toy around with directly on the device.
If it is very evident, what's an example of Wikipedia's supposed bias?

Ever since I had a sometimes-cancerous soft issue tumor so rare, information on it mostly exists in academic writing to then find out it was not cancerous yet at the time it got cut out (probably, but get screened for the next few years anyway) I gave up on looking at numbers to console myself with statistics.

Not to say you shouldn't minimize your risk, but it can still hit you regardless.
Pretty sure that someone felling a 200 year old woman would be seen as pretty horrifying as well. :p

Recover well Mr Stallman! I wish you the best!
No offense, but whenever this claim comes up, the same article from that one guy is quoted, and not much else. If the claim was true, one would think that, in the decade or so since, there would have been countless stories of french embassy personnel expelled, of french students being undercover spies, or of french secret services corrupting civil servants abroad, like there are for Russia or China.

> Well, I guess espionage is a French word

Also there is no french word for entrepreneur.
If the person with the t-shirt is both sympathetic to communism or the Che, and RMS, I can see how it can not be a provocation.

RMS was probably right not to sign it though. I also believe producing a t-shirt with RMS depicted as the Che is not quite right.
Interesting! Just for fun I tried to list all binary operators to check which comply with this rule.

These symmetric symbols represent symmetric operators in one or more widespread languages (C-like, Basic, etc.), so they're OK:

+ * | ^ /\ \/ == === <> =

(where = is test for equality, not assignment).

Conversely, these asymmetric symbols represent asymmetric operators, also OK:

/ % -> => << >> < <= > >= , := \ &&

plus all the assigments like +=.

Now the bad ones, symmetric symbols for asymmetric operators:

- = ** ^ || . :: ..

(where = is assignment, ^ is exponent).

And finally the few asymmetric symbols for symmetric operators:

& !=

I'm probably missing a lot of other operators...
Miami has a large community of people who risked their lives and abandoned everything to flee Cuba to go hang out with the capitalist pigdogs in the USA. Their hospitality toward communist revolutionaries would be somewhat chillier than what you'd receive on a northeastern college campus. It's unlikely this would extend to violence, but you might get some remarks.
My main pattern of concurrency is scheduling a computation made of a serie of asynchronous steps. I want this computation to be cancellable, and i want to schedule them keeping them in order.

Basically NSOperation scheduled to a non-concurrent operation queue, where the operation itself is made of async calls.

What would be the recommended approach for doing that with swift concurrency ?
Autumn 2023 report to the Computer Conservation Society
Well first of all I was 15 or 16 at the time, so I guess I didn't give it as much though as you currently do, and besides, Che Guevara is (to me at least) not a symbol of communism first and foremost, but a symbol of a man fighting for his ideas (not saying that's my opinion of him especially nowadays, I'm talking about the symbolic power, especially of the famous photograph we all know).

So... no.

Besides, it was in Europe. Us Europeans do not have the same epidermic reaction to communism that Americans have.
I have 12 checks ready to go.
I need the opposite - JAX to ONNX
Thankfully competition from AirBNB made them re-think the idea. That's my theory why it mostly went away anyway.

There's still some stragglers though, offering "basic" access free but charging for higher data limits, faster bandwidth, more devices. You can often get the higher plan just by signing up for the hotel's loyalty program.
> Personally I don't see the significant material difference between 90% of the 50 most popular videos depicting violence against women and 90% of all porn videos depicting the same. I'm happy to hear why you might disagree though.

No, a product is a completely different thing from a computer language.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's some form of (a variant or advancement) of FACS which we've used in animation eons ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facial_Action_Coding_System

Basically for each of the identified poses you have a key and you grab a pose of it (photogrammetry here) and then you would capture performance and identify somehow which combination of keys and weights would be translated to you model. Sounds easy but it ain't.
There's nothing special about v1 either. So you can just increment the minor version and would have the same effect as if you were just using the major version. As you said yourself.

As long as releases happen I don't think you can say the devs are afraid of commitment.

Note that this only applies to self contained software. For libraries SemVer makes sense but other types of software usually don't need it.

For my projects I usually just show the major version to the common user and internally SemVer is used for debug information and compatibility signalling (where this applies).
How to Pick a Programming Language (2002)
Your facts are completely wrong, the case you're referring to has been headline and front-page news on the BBC website for 2 days, I only heard about the tree through this hn link.
Agreed. People fleeing Communism are the last people you want to listen to regarding Communism. Dismiss them as rabid and move on.
Of course the person with T-shirt is sympathetic to communism and RMS, but their sympathy to RMS is very superficial. Otherwise they would know that RMS wouldn't approve. So it's option 2 I guess.
and thanks to the higher powers for that.
Kinda missing the point by focusing on the 30-60 bracket there, friend.

You also need to consider the people who are on the train with delays. One of the sadder things I've seen is someone missing a post-midnight intercom announcement saying that all stops right before St Louis through Chicago would would be skipped (because delays), and they'd need to get on the next train. So when she inevitably didn't get off, she was forced to going all the way up to Chicago and had to get picked up by family and drive all the way back down to St. Louis.

Anywho.

The Founder really shows the sort of relentless idea-filtering and -selection process an entrepreneur has to commit to. Could he have been a bit nicer? Probably not a high correlation for the personality type that’s comfortable with culling.
I'm fine with big corporations use my software: the deal is that whatever they do with it, they must give it back to the users with the same license. Make it live beyond the company's existence and control. It's still better than my software being non-copyleft and being used by a company.

I wish they would give back all the profit as well but that's another topic and the AGPL doesn't touch that.
He was arrested, not questioned, so they must have reasonable grounds to suspect he was involved in a crime for which his arrest is necessary (https://www.gov.uk/police-powers-of-arrest-your-rights)

That doesn’t necessarily mean they have indications he felled it. He could have been there with somebody else, for example, or they may have evidence that he provided the chainsaw.

I do wonder about that “for which his arrest is necessary” part. What would make that necessary in this case?

I don't think PR is the real issue. IMHO, the fundamental principle behind FSF philosophy is the license is primarily written to secure the long-term interest of the _user_, not the community of the authors. The reason authors were okay with that in the first place is, early on in computing, users and authors largely overlapped, if not exactly the same. Over time, the authors and users diverged widely, thus their interests diverged. FSF philosophy has failed to appeal to the authors of the software because it is economically a bad deal for them. Users who do not pay are by-and-large leeches. Also, some of the freedoms are not considered as valuable by the users as they are for fellow authors, perhaps sensibly so because they are never going to utilize such freedoms.

This is usually known as a radical flank, particularly useful in discussions about climate activism these days.

The FSF/GNU seems a bit too fringe and not too great at explaining the problem to everyday people instead just offering entirely uncompromising solutions that don't work for most people. More isolationist than activist. What would the less radical organization benefiting from the existence of FSF/GNU even be? The EFF?
A metal bar will always be a metal bar.

Software is malleable, and Tesla (or hackers) can change it under your feet. You should be able to inspect it and have a say in what it does or whether to accept the next update.

Intent matters. It's only a provocation if it's meant to be a provocation.

Otherwise it's mere faux-pas, at worst.

What's more, you don't necessarily know everything about a person. I would not know anything about RMS's political opinions if I had not read his website a bit, I would only know him for his stance on free software.

Bit like the Rockefeller fortune really, then? The original Rockefellers are no longer alive after all.

> there is no guarantee that current descendants would be the ones actually owning the lands today.

Say what now?

Much the same time as John D. Rockefeller was born the Treaty of Waitangi was "signed" in 1840 (there's some conflict over versions and translations and genuine evidence some people signed an English language version after being shown another version in their own language etc.) and birth records and family histories from then until now are pretty solid.

Again, why should anyone respect the legal agreements about the Rockefeller trust if no one can be bothered to respect the agreements made in the Treaty of Waitangi?

* descendant

But also, while I agree that you shouldn't feel guilty or responsible for the actions of your ancestors, if those ancestors put in place a system of inequality, and some of that inequality persists to this day, which you benefit from while the descendants of those oppressed are still suffering from, don't you think that's at least worth acknowledging? And maybe considering that those who are still suffering because of an unresolved systemic marginalisation don't deserve to?
Do you really need to ask?

My company would happily pay for licenses. Not after this shit was pulled, though. They even went so far to remove the Kong enterprise api management products from our internal order system. It's not so great to work with a company that pulls the rug underneath you without warning.

I also think these features have a place. I'm quite sad that Kong completely destroyed all trust our company had in them.
Che Guevara was responsible for the murder of an awful lot of innocent human beings. That fact is lost on the edge lords who want to worship him as a saviour of mankind. He was far, far from that.
2500 miles from London puts you somewhere in central Asia. I found the following route, which is just shy of that distance: https://www.distance.to/London/Samara,Samara-Oblast,RUS It would be an amazing trip, but it would involve crossing many borders and going through some fairly dodgy countries. I think there is a reasonable case that no sane person would do that on a whim.
The FSF has had actual professionals running communications.

I don't think the issue is in the form but in the content: developers don't want to hear they are favoring greedy private interests (sometimes including themselves, sometimes at their expense) instead of the common goods, because the freedom to restrict a good from everyone for personal profit is more important than the freedom to access said good and build upon it.
I don't think so. The black holes are, by assumption, tiny and only light passing by very very closely would experience significant lensing. Farther away, the lensing would be the same as near any other planet.

This is wrong, the GPLv3 only requires installation information for "User Products" (as defined in the license) which the manufacturer can update even if the user can't. Most medical equipment isn't User Products and can't simply be updated by the manufacturer for regulatory reasons.

That article was written before the finished GPLv3 was published, they had only published a stricter draft.
I assume that the rather hostile reaction you've received in this thread stems from the combination of your insistence that you tried everything to "bend the law of physics", but dismissal of any suggestion of simpler methods because you're a software person and couldn't have possibly thought/known of everything and we should just all assume that you found the optimal solution. Said differently, it's a strange combination of "we were a team of geniuses so trust me our solution was the best one" and "we were all software people so stop suggesting hardware solutions, it was too complicated for us to learn".
I mean, looking at https://www.statista.com/statistics/565270/apple-devices-ios... -- "earlier" versions stick around 5-10%, which was enough to keep people supporting IE for over a decade beyond its EOL. So, I don't think you have a valid argument.
You have good points overall, but I'd say AngularJS did have mass adoption at a time - it was a great way to build web applications compared to the alternatives. React just came by and did even better.

And Dart may not have much of a standing on its own, but Flutter is one of the most popular frameworks for creating cross-platform applications right now.
My understanding is that holding physical gold is a big hassle when you want to sell. Sensible buyers will want to verify that it is real and not gold-plated tungsten.

Fake gold bars are common.

If you want to hold gold as a hedge against high inflation then you want "good delivery" gold, which stays in a vault with chain of custody records.
Oh, thanks for your feedback! I was worried about the N7, as the iPad is very snappy in that regard (playing video). I see almost no difference with any newer models, with the exception of super new HDR/Spatial Audio ones. (Not needed for YouTube anyways, as even if there’s content, we don’t truly watch the iPad, but listen to it.)

And it plays local H264 720p very well, usually. However, for us 480p is plenty most of the time.
Raspberry Pi's don't use PXE boot, they have their own proprietary system. The kernel is fetched by TFTP, along with a config text file which species an NFS location to mount as root. Boot then continues from there.
