Wouldn't the median be 1? Most folks have 2 legs, but some have 1 or even 0. The median would be 2 if some people had 4 legs.
Nah, it's more like not all deletions are equal. It probably has to do with the user launching the event on the backend, if I were to guess, but sometimes if you delete something through Explorer, it isn't added to the undo history. Some of these I've seen not end up in the recycle bin despite not permanently deleting them, hence why I wouldn't be surprised if it was another user being used for these edge-cases. The deleted items would then be added to that user's recycle bin and be unavailable to the actual user's undo history.

Basically; not really sure, just making a wild guess, but I've encountered similar edge-cases before.

Problem with runfiles is I've run into other .deb packages that I'd like to use that are marked as dependent on 'cuda'.

Using a runfile is ditching the package manager on a package-managed system, instead of using the package manager correctly.
I don't oppose this being flagged. But I'm curious, why was it flagged?
Who's going to write the specification for how a sort algorithm behaves when the comparator lies?
Service workers aren’t a magic “run forever in the background” technology.

I’m fairly sure PWAs can’t run in the background at all on iOS or Android, except for possibly a brief moment after the PWA receives a notification, and the service worker doesn’t have access to much of anything during that interval. If anyone can link to something that demonstrates otherwise, okay, but I have checked on this in the past, and I don’t think so.

Native apps have been caught with their hand in the metaphorical cookie jar over and over again. The App Store review process is largely ineffective. Apple apparently didn’t even realize that apps were doing sketchy things with the clipboard until it became a major headline[0], and this is only the tip of the iceberg of “things App Store review didn’t catch”.

Native apps continue to find ways to bypass sandboxing that the OS applies.

Browsers naturally take a much more adversarial posture against the code they’re running, so the sandboxing is far stronger.

Apple has spent at least a decade marketing[1] to convince people the App Store is synonymous with safety. Given how detached this seems to be from reality, the simplest conclusion seems to be that they do this because they really want their 30% cut. The marketing campaign seems to be working too well. In reality, the browser seems to be substantially safer, although nothing is perfect.

> Memory pages marked as both writable and executable can be used only by apps under tightly controlled conditions: The kernel checks for the presence of the Apple-only dynamic code-signing entitlement. Even then, only a single mmap call can be made to request an executable and writable page, which is given a randomized address. Safari uses this functionality for its JavaScript Just-in-Time (JIT) compiler.

In other words, Apple only allows Apple to do Javascript JIT on iOS.
Yes, SHA-1 is still considered preimage resistant. But preimage resistance isn't that important here, if the hypothesis about seed structure is correct: SHA-1 is also very fast and trivial to parallelize, and someone dedicated to exploring the permutation space of "Jerry needs a raise" stands a decent chance of discovering the original input.
So static type system are conservative. If variable v is supposed to
have type T and the compiler cannot deduce that it for sure
is then a type error is generated. Hence you need option types because
static type systems are not powerful enough to deduce whether a given
nullable variable actually can be null or not. In effect, the compiler
throws its hands in the air and says "Nope too hard, you do it for
me." So the programmer has to insert runtime checks in the form of
pattern matching clauses for option types even when it is trivial for
a human to prove that a reference won't ever be null. The compiler
admits defeat and instead forces the programmer to use runtime type
checking.

It's mostly the same with nominative NonEmpty types. Any value the
programmer has instantiated with one of NonEmpty's type constructors
have type NonEmpty - everything else don't. For sure, you could
create a NonEmpty class in Java too, but it would still be up to the
programmer to enforce the type's semantic during program execution. If
the variable L has type NonEmpty (list) then it's bloody obvious to a
programmer that the expression pop(push(push(L, x), y)) also has type
NonEmpty. To a compiler figuring that one out is mostly impossible.

The LLM is the output of the training system; the LLM doesn't do the reading, the trainer does. The LLM doesn't "contain" a copy of the book.

But some LLMs seem to be able to quote on demand from a wide range of literature; these models evidently do have some kind of memory, even if it's been distilled and blended and distilled again.
Cool! Do you know the species singing fairly well, or do you attempt any automated identification?

I've been dithering about getting a microphone that I could attach to my Android phone to do better at capturing quiet vocalisations (mainly thinking of that for use with Merlin. I do know the species here fairly well but still not certain of all vocalisations.)

I've been listening for a few minutes. Really beautiful. There was an alarm call close to the mic that must have been a Turdus thrush but other than that I have little idea what I'm listening to! Guess: are drongos in there?

AI models are not and will never progress humanity. The ability to have a computer write, draw, or vocalize for you does not change you.

You are fundamentally misunderstanding machine learning. It's just fancy python code that approximates a derived pattern. Nothing less, nothing more.

I'm surprised how many people are writing about their solutions for printing. I thought by now most people had done what I've done and just set things up not to need to print.

Xournal allows me to fill out anything I could print from PDF with a stylus on my touch screen. If I want to read and highlight something, I convert it to PDF and read it in Logseq with the same stylus. I can highlight in four colors and it automatically collects my notes!

If I need to mail/ship something, I just have the ship shop print it.

What are people intentionally printing to paper for, often enough that it's worth having a printer?
If that isn't a design feature, may be time for a new microwave friend.
It’s not a big deal, there are many ways to handle it. It just has some overhead costs.
LLMs that are offered to general public are more of a POC and they are making sure to use as little resources as possible.

Also have a MFC-L3770CDW, it's perfectly fine but you really have to pay attention to consumable cost when selecting laser MFC. A cartridge of TN227BK (high-yield black toner) for the MFC-L3770CDW is ~$80 for a ~3000 page yield, while a TN433BK cartridge that fits a MFC-L8900CDW is $85 for a ~4500 page yield. That's a (toner-only) cost per page of ~2.5c vs ~1.8c, or nearly a 30% reduction in toner cost; the difference between which is amplified for the color cartridges (TN227 color is $100/ea for ~2300 pages, TN433 color is $136/ea for ~4000 pages or ~4.3c/page vs ~3.4c/page).

Considering the price difference between these units, I opted for the MFC-L3770CDW because I do not print that often and I've spent far more over years on wasted ink from dried out cartridges and destroyed print heads; but it's still an important factor to keep in mind.
This is the first time I hear Linux has better fractional scaling than Windows. Is this because of Wayland or something? Windows always had reasonably good fractional scaling story. Wanted to hear why you think Windoes fractional scaling is broken.
That's a lot of assumptions which may or may not be true, however likely they may seem. There's no telling how another life form may reason, hell it might not even reason at all - perhaps it's some kind of space fungi or virus which traverses space to inhabit planets capable of supporting life. Not that I think the dark forest theory is likely, but I wouldn't say it makes no sense.
I don't think this is a pipe issue.

(echo red; echo green 1>&2) | echo blue

The string "red" goes into the pipe. The strong "green" goes to stderr, the TTY. The "echo blue" writes to stdout, but does not read from its stdin, the read end of the pipe.

Since nothing gets read from the pipe I don't see the claim of indeterminacy as true.

The different outputs are all due to process scheduling in the kernel.
FWIW as of a few months ago, Google and Mozilla were already prototyping porting their respective engines to iOS to prepare for this eventuality: https://9to5mac.com/2023/02/07/new-iphone-browsers/ https://9to5google.com/2023/02/06/google-chrome-blink-ios-we... - and Vivaldi would benefit from this work getting to Chromium as well.
Maybe there's a better word than 'work'. When I say

I don't mean 'perform in a paid job', I mean 'take productive steps'. So even if you're just noodling around having fun with a musical instrument, you can be working, if you're improving your control and understanding. Messing around without a productive aim can still be very productive.
Compliance with exactly what? Their own rules?
Oh, apologies for my misunderstanding. Good points.
In a bombshell report, an oversight body for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) found that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Enforcement (CBP), and the Secret Service all broke the law while using location data harvested from ordinary apps installed on smartphones. In one instance, a CBP official also inappropriately used the technology to track the location of coworkers with no investigative purpose.
For years U.S. government agencies have been buying access to location data through commercial vendors, a practice which critics say skirts the Fourth Amendment requirement of a warrant. During that time, the agencies have typically refused to publicly explain the legal basis on which they based their purchase and use of the data. Now, the report shows that three of the main customers of commercial location data broke the law while doing so, and didn’t have any supervisory review to ensure proper use of the technology. The report also recommends that ICE stop all use of such data until it obtains the necessary approvals, a request that ICE has refused.
The routers. My ISP can't route dst=192.168.1.2 to anywhere, and even if someone managed to splice the packet in between my router and the ISP, my router won't take that dst. That address doesn't exist on the WAN.

~/name at an edu is pretty attainable.

You seem to be missing the point. The problem isn't getting in temps to fill in during the odd shortage. It's replacing long-term staff with temps. This is bad for patients.

If your hospital is always understaffed on Friday nights, for example, you need to hire more nurses, not get temps.

Of course not, why would you write “cheap” when you can write “h1b”? Referring to people by only the noun of their immigration status with no other information in no way has any reflection on how GP thinks about anyone based on their immigration status.
Does it actually allow installation of WebExtensions on iOS? I thought that was currently against the App Store rules?

Edit: I can’t find any hard and fast rule about browsers not being allowed WebExtensions on iOS, so interesting to see for sure.
We've been hearing that this program or that program will make programmers obsolete forever. The only problem with that is that I've heard that refrain for 45 years that I, personally, am aware of. No doubt it existed even before I heard it for the first time.

And us programmers are still here. And all those programs?? I can't even remember any of their names.
Burning wood is absolutely a cost on the environment; just ask anyone who grew up in homes heated by firewood. But of course, as you say, the scale is different. Should your example of medieval deforestation have been impermissible for environmental reasons, then? Where should the line be drawn? Who has the authority to draw that line?

No (non-nuclear) renewable technology currently exists that can by itself meet the energy demands of developed world standards of living. I'm not sure if wind and solar alone can even meet a developing country's standard of living. I'd really like it if we could build a thousand new nuclear power plants, but of course, reality is often disappointing and we get things like Germany shutting down its nuclear reactors and burning more coal instead.

I don't, windows fractional scaling is very good, until very recently there was no good solution on Linux, but Plasma implemented a proper solution a while ago and it works about as well as Window's. This was one of the main things keeping me from making the permanent switch.
The part of the NS article visible above the paywall says "the carbon footprint of each satellite constellation is potentially 14 to 21 times higher per internet subscriber than the emissions associated with land-based..."

But the arxiv paper says nothing like that! It focuses exclusively on carbon emissions from satellite internet.

Because, obviously, the baseline here is important. Starlink exclusively provides internet to rural users-- it has to, each footprint is limited by physics. If the limit is 10 subscribers per square kilometer, then obviously it's going to be a lot more useful in the Mojave than in downtown Vegas.

Running fiber 10m down the street to connect two houses in a suburb is much cheaper than running it 100km to someone living on the top of a mountain. Is the story comparing the carbon cost of connecting people in Manhattan, or the cost of running a cable to Srednekolymsk? No way to tell, since I'm not paying to read this. But it's definitely not addressed in the arxiv paper.

---

Minor aside:

>by the number of satellites in each constellation, along with a factor which represents the average amount of time each satellite will spend idle over ocean (rather than over land where subscribers are located).

Huh? Shipbourne users are a substantial market for Starlink, and obviously one that is completely impossible to address with terrestrial solutions. Unless you want to carpet every ocean with cell phone relays, which would have a... substantial carbon footprint.
Third party browsers are forced to use a slower JavaScript engine than Safari. They also can't support extensions or PWA features.

C and C++ are often used to achieve max performance. For max performance devs have to guarantee inlining. Which means programmers intentionally choose bigger code size and instantiation of sort algorithm code for every type and comparison combination. Function pointers to comparison operators are not relevant for max performance part of the community.

For ValWithPtr to make sense it needs its semantics defined. Correct C++ types can be deep copying, move only, reference counted, singleton instance etc. For example typed deep copy version without attempting any verification (link to compiler explorer): https://godbolt.org/z/3sesYY8of

I can't be bothered to run the math now (especially since the FBI tracking hispanic ethnicity separately from race complicates everything), but I believe that according to the 2016 FBI homicide statistics, a random black person is about 10x as likely to kill a white person, as a random white person is to kill a black. (There are "only" 2x as many black-on-white murders as white-on-black, but there are ~5x more white people than black, so the per-capita interracial murder perpetration rate is 10x higher. I'm going by memory, so I welcome a double-check)

Regardless, the media do not hesitate to abuse "one-off incidents". I applaud your appeal to a higher standard, but unless you apply this standard evenly, it is just another form of bias.
I think they were remarking that fractional scaling on Linux is no longer a dumpster fire so you can ditch Windows for the reasons that make it a dumpster fire.
well I also suspect you hit the reason why nobody has them enabled.

if you don't have a headphones jack, you have no antenna. without an antenna you may as well leave it disabled lest you have a bunch of customer unsatisfied that the advertised feature doesn't work (very well).

I hear what you are saying. What I think that what you're missing is that subsequent conversations with AI, where humans and AI solve problems together, is what the next generation of AI is going to be trained on. That data is being collected every time someone interacts with a chatbot, which is why they are being provided — so many of them - as a free service.

It is, as before: if the service is free, you are the product.

That being said, I think that to the extent AI is an actually helpful product, as opposed to social media, public forums, or free video hosting, the tradeoff is way more worthwhile. In my most humble opinion. I'm sure your calculus will lead to different outcomes.
and often with guns of the long-ass variety
Much more constructive thank you. To be honest I haven't looked into it much in the last decade just going from the news and general discourse. I've noticed that we've been going into an active phase and it's mentioned a lot in other situations but never when it comes to the reasons behind climate change. Especially since it could make it worse I'd assume they'd push harder on it being more of a problem now. Feels like they're hiding something.

According to your first link we can track solar activity:

> Evidence of variations in solar activity on millennial timescales can
be found in the records of cosmogenic radionuclides in such long-lived
natural features as ice cores from large ice sheets, tree rings and ocean
sediments. Using careful statistical analysis it is now possible to
identify decadal and centennial signals of solar variability in climate data.

7% sounds low yes, but 30% is absolutely not a "small" factor. I'd think the direct effect of solar activity would be much easier to measure even on a micro level than CO2. A decade back a graph was popular where temperature and solar activity correlated almost 1:1.

I'm not trying to argue for emissions, I'd prefer no cars, fresh air and banned plastics. But an honest debate where I'm not a conspiracy nut for asking completely valid questions is not much to ask for (not directed at you just the general discourse).

If it really is serious then don't tell me we need to keep the economy going, that we have a demographic problem or try to sell me emission rights. We do or we don't, the next iphone or the next generation, that's the solution I expect to the level of threat they're telling me it is. Meanwhile they fly in private jets from summit to summit.

I'm not even trying to keep my way of living I'm already a hermit with a broken screen on my 4 year old phone, and rarely eat red meat. What they say and what they do doesn't seem to match.
