While I agree that not every experiment may be worth it, my point is that there aren't good alternatives for a lot of things. But, like, nature is a cruel mistress. At every level of survival comes the suffering of other animals, whether for food, luck, or experimentation. We're not going to get to a point of harmony without somehow transcending this and completely rebuilding civilization, which is something most of us don't want.

And even then, a gazelle somewhere is going to be gored and eaten alive by a pack of wild hyenas. There's still going to be that tree with the glue-like sap that dooms any bird that perches on it to die of starvation. And so on...

Won't that easily be found out when the hash matches the image of Viktor Orban rather than an image of CSAM. I'm not sure the legal system is as stupid as you think it is. Then Hungary would just have their hashes reviewed.

Sure a conspiracy of all the relevant authorities across the whole EU would work, ... but that seems a stretch to enable what, political elites to _cooperatively_ censor images the public hold. There are easier ways, surely.

No, the dude is looking up so as to distract people and avoid signaling what he's doing, while he steals the wallet of the rube bending over in front of him... (Which is extremely on point and topical for OP's thesis, yet apparently does not realize it.)
This attack also works for people who are not in a position to submit entries to the database as you could very well plant the generated matching images on a server set up with a compromised credit card and report it yourself.

The map uses the H3 tiling system, and the cells displayed are resolution 4. Sometimes for specific cases I look at higher resolutions. For example, I believe this map I did during the still-unexplained Dallas-Fort Worth major interference event of 2022 uses resolution 6: https://twitter.com/lemonodor/status/1582403839004508160

The caveats of that tweet still apply to higher resolutions: Specifically that you start to see the effects of individual aircraft, which can be harder to interpret.
Interesting. You think there is a regional component to it, or is it more about industry? Here in the US I haven't met anyone working in .NET since it first came out, or anybody who's even used it in the last decade or so. Maybe it's my profession (web dev) or vertical (renewables).
The thing is that other than e-commerce, grocery, or social apps, I don't spend too much time browsing anymore.

If it's something quick, some info regarding a specific subject, or a link someone sent me, I use brave and avoid all nonsense. I don't even bother with webviews, I go straight to the browser.

Economic value transcends "money", "capitalism", "the rich", "corporations" and abstractions like those.

It's a far more fundamental phenomenon.

Simply put, real economic value arises when two entities voluntarily provide mutual benefit to one another, thus improving the overall situation for both.

The voluntary nature of this interaction is critical; when it's missing, there can't be mutual benefit. That's what happens with taxation, for example. The involuntary nature of such an interaction means that the entity who is forced to unwillingly pay the tax is always worse off than if the transaction hadn't happened.

That's why government "jobs" are so inherently pointless and harmful to society at large. They way they're "funded" makes society worse off, and then what the government "workers" do with such resources typically makes society even more worse off than that.
As others noted, the latency is from a whole slew of trackers that privacy extension would block. Maybe this is a good nudge for you to go install one. It's a problem that's already widespread and will continually get worse.

But on top of that, this is also one of the many fun examples of where a static, linear document that's so simple it could have been written in markdown requires megabytes of download across dozens of files.

Nobody cares about user experience right now -- it's all about developer and content management experience, so runtime bulk and responsiveness are ignored in favor of... whatever these kinds of developers think they're gaining on the production end. I often have a hard time guessing what that is without assuming the responsible devs are not-so-great.

That's a great question! One of the things I enjoyed during my time at Slack was their willingness to contribute to open source projects. We had similar IP clauses, but asking permission to open source things was straightforward.

The most important concern (IMO), was considering whether we could commit to properly maintaining a project. Before open sourcing anything, you need to discuss how you'll go about managing an issue and pull request backlog, so that people don't come across "dead" projects under your stewardship.

In a high growth startup, I do think something like this could happen again, but as a company grows, there are certainly more layers that can make it difficult to share things openly.
From that page:

“Squircle, the superellipse with n = 4, a = b = 1”

So, yes, a squircle is a superellipse with n = 4,

Also, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squircle:

“A squircle is a shape intermediate between a square and a circle. There are at least two definitions of "squircle" in use, the most common of which is based on the superellipse.”

So, squircle isn’t tightly defined.

It also says: “Apple uses an approximation of a squircle (actually a quintic superellipse) for icons in iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and the home buttons of some Apple hardware.”

So, that claims Apple uses n = 5. However, https://applypixels.com/blog/the-hunt-for-the-squircle seems to indicate that’s close to, but may not be the exact shape of iOS icons (They’re approximating that curve with quadratic or cubic splines. That may be the sole cause of discrepancies)

Of course, they may use different values of n elsewhere.
Vitamin C appears beneficial in experimental sepsis
Lightning was a small reversible connector that apple said would last 10 years, and it did. This was at the time when others were coming out with things like the usb 3.0 micro b plug.

Living through this and subsequent events has been quite amusing. Irrational apple haters at the time branded lightning a “money grab” by apple to make people buy new accessories, all while other manufacturers moved from mini to micro to usb-c in short order.

It’s been a wild ride watching this over the years. As far as I can tell, these same people also believe that apple slowed phones down to sell more. They will even post articles to “prove” this that quite clearly reference batterygate and talk about batteries. Their irrational hate cannot be reasoned with, and they will spread these falsehoods at any opportunity. In the next breath they will complain about imaginary insufferable apple fans that apparently claim that apple invented everything.

It’s been 15 years of phones but apparently all these repeat satisfied apple customers are still idiots.

I wish I was making up a strawman here, but every time you poke it blood comes out.

Unless he joined Gumroad after that video was produced? Hopefully he'll see this and comment. And update the abstract.

The degree itself is unimportant, but there are important skills that a CS program teaches, which you can teach yourself, but that degree makes getting interviews a lot easier.

Nice move of goalposts - interfaces absolutely got nerfed because of consoles, I never argued otherwise. You argued that the reason why Fallout 4 got crappy dialogue options was because controllers have 4 buttons(to quote you "Fallout 4 having four choices at any point in any conversation has zero to do with "writing" or "game design""), which is complete nonsense, but I don't know how to prove it to you other than by saying I have worked in the industry long enough to tell you with absolute certainty that it doesn't happen. If bethesda wanted to have 20 dialogue options they would have done it regardless. The fact that the conversation options suck in that game and that they basically all mean the same thing has nothing to do with how many buttons are on a controller(!!!!). If you walked into any conversation about NPC conversation systems and said with a straight face "I think we should only have 4 dialogue options because controllers have 4 buttons" you'd be laughed out of the room.
Closed loop system, never needs to be replaced.
I can't speak for all of them, but "jugaad" maybe isn't a good translation of "meraki".

For me, meraki has kind of a "craftsmanship" meaning - you're building something carefully, like a sculptor. The result reflects your soul.

Jugaad is more of an ingenuity/re-purpose/get-it-working-fast kind of thing, kind of like a "hack" but with a more positive meaning.
> Personally I'd rather sit on my ass in a comfortable office and get paid to think and press some buttons so that I can get electricity and food and all the shit I need.

Me too, but I am arguing the degree of it here, and that nuance is sadly lost on many. They always jump on "go live in the woods then" which obviously is not what the argument is about.

If the costs of living drop a little and if housing becomes actually affordable then I'll very likely never open my mouth criticizing civilization again.

And I will not agree that the current world economical situation is inevitable. I think many of us are quite aware that the world elite is playing dangerous games at the expense of everyone else but themselves.

It does not have to be this way. It can be better. But that's a huge -- and different -- topic.

> But nobody's forcing us.

Hard disagree and I'll leave it at that, you are chasing a dictionary definition here much like my previous parent poster did, and that's not moving any discussion forward.

> I don't think you want what you think you want.

Disrespect will get you nowhere in any discussion.

> You like modern society, certainly beats fighting mountain lions for days-old dead deer and dying of a treatable infection. If you want the benefits of society you have to contribute.

Sure, and again -- degrees. It's not an all or nothing and it's very puzzling why you and many others are framing it that way.
>9/10 places will say “no thank you” if you say you must be allowed to typically work 25-30 hours a week. The place that says okay is a place that won’t push you.

How do you find such places? I've been very curious about part time software work but knowledge online seems to suggest that freelancing is the only route there.

Funnily enough, I wanted to find such a job precisely so I could make my own stuff on the side, which will inevitably involve some signifigant open source contributions due to my tech stack. I've thought about simply being a paid member and essentially double dipping, but that route seems even rarer.
Note that I was being sarcastic. The headline was extremely misleading, to the point of propaganda. I'm not actually saying it should be illegal- lying is legal.

Even if such systems were only used for their stated purpose of finding CSAM, because no one can audit the database of hashes there's no guarantee that non-CSAM images aren't in there.

Just being accused of having CSAM is a life ruining event. Even if someone is eventually cleared of charges their life is forever altered. The "We Got Him!!" headlines are front page news, retractions are filed in a basement filing cabinet with a sign that says "Beware of Leopard".

Yeah, sharing FPU makes a lot more sense than sharing integer unit. FPU, particularly on home user applications, is not used nearly as heavily as integer. But AFAICT the CPU used in the article was one of these Bulldozer-based designs with shared FPUs. And it didn't sound like they did anything with trying to pin processes to specific cores to avoid 2 threads sharing the same FPU. The description of their code doesn't sound like it would be floating-point heavy but its hard to say for sure.
I'm sure it's more complicated than this, but I still hold a grudge against MS for seemingly destroying Rare.

>> I assume the answer to that will be that there is no need to differentiate between them. And honestly, I agree with that

>I disagree. The point is to reduce actual child abuse.

There are limited resources, practically the only way to do this is to make it illegal to have anything that looks real (or looks derived from a real situation, in a 'I will know it when I see it way'). Otherwise, you're just making an almost impassable defence of 'it is fake' or 'I thought it was fake'. Then you can't practically reduce actual child abuse.

I think you're mistaking the feeling of guilt with the state of being guilty of something.

The person you're responding to isn't claiming that SBF demonstrated remorse at his actions, he is claiming that SBF admitted to the crimes he's been accused of.

Whether or not he feels remorse for those actions is a separate concern. But yeah, he's guilty.
. On one hand one could argue SBF stole the crypto (after all he was in the best position to know both the wallets and the exact timing it was going to come crashing down) and he is raising cash to flee - if that is even possible.

I would assign a near 0% likelihood of this . For one, why would he need to hack his own exchange? Just quietly move funds to a secret address he know the private key to. Done. Being the CEO he would have 'god mode' authority to do this, and being a private company no audits anyway.
Piil – Open-air 'living room' terrace
> The 4x3 aspect monitors were bigger. The 16x9 added only horizontal space.

Unless you had a large monitor back then and a small monitor now, this is incredibly incorrect.

Back in the 1024x768 days, most people probably had a 15" monitor. You might have had 17" if you were lucky. Even at 17", that monitor is only 13.6 x 10.2"

Now, People on a 16:9 are likely running a minimum 22". At 16:9, that's 19.2 x 10.8".

...shit you might be right. But really only if you had a large 4:3 monitor and now have a small 16:9 monitor. 4:3 15" is 12 x 9", and 16:9 24" is 20.9 x 11.8. 27" is 23.5 x 13.2.

Laptop screens are of course a different beast. Still though, with resolutions being higher, certainly they could have used a pixel or two to create an actual window edge.
