> It's absolutely terrifying... Pretend cars didn't exist on that street for a moment

You can easily experience the scenario you envision, practically average 1905 San Francisco roads, by walking or biking through JFK street in Golden Gate Park, which is closed to all vehicles but food trucks and shuttles.

It's so crazy fucking nice, fun and safe so I have no idea what you're talking about.

As a Verizon customer, we will have to agree to disagree on this.
I have somethint similar but it’s purely mechanical, no electronics or batteries to worry about at all. Even my kids can use it fine and it only takes a second to enter the combo.
It's interesting to me that your philosophy does sharply contradict with another popular notion which is that there is great benefit in unifying production and development environments. Curious what your take on that is.
It's funny you think it's preposterous that I might. Buddy we're not all sucking down six figures to write ad company spyware.

> I will always sacrifice the work for the worker.

The attitude I see most often is: "the worker is replaceable and therefore expendable, but the work will always be there until someone takes care of it so burn through as many workers as it takes to get it done"
Unless you're an extremely heavy user, it's cheaper to just use the API. I've been tempted to do that, but OpenAI doesn't have a free trial for me to see the quality of GPT-4 first.
Unpopular Opinion: It's harder than ever to be a good software engineer
Kind of a tangential side note, for a future side project, I did find a pretty interesting monitor that could be used as part of a physical digital table top for RPG and board games. The key feature is that it is fairly thin (less than 1") and lies completely flush against the table and outlets are on the side.

I have a little blogging engine that I wrote to scratch my own itch called Postwave. You write everything as flat files but you can interact with everything dynamically through a client library. It works for what I want to use it for.
In general, yes, but there are good reasons not to use a full frame sensor. They’re big, they run hot and they’re expensive. You’re looking at 10x the price range of the HQ cam. And one trouble with big pixels is that it means low pixel density.

If you take an IMX585 astronomy camera it will produce a better quality image than any used or new DSLR in the same price range, despite having pixels a fraction of the size. The (considerable) negative side is the smaller frame.
But OpenAI appears to have some sort of data moat. I doubt their model is the best in the world, but more/better data generally beats better model, and GPT-4 definitely beats Claude, Bard, Bernie and the rest probably because they curated the best quality and largest data set. Maybe that moat doesn't last long but perhaps they have exclusive rights to some of that dataset through commercial agreements that could be a more durable moat.
Scaremongering. Small tech items are a small fraction of what the average person throws away
What a load of malarkey.

The US intelligence apparatus discovers that a Japanese company has backdoored all its hard drives which are apparently also installed on USN vessels.

The US, out of benevolence for this non-US company's reputation, I guess, decides to agree to a secret deal with its ally.

The secret deal is that US Navy personnel will be put onto Japanese naval vessels, which in no way remedies the problem of backdoored hard drives that supposedly exist. Random JMSDF captains know the details of this supposedly secret deal and discuss it freely without consequence.

Imagine believing this.

Japan has been a friendly country and valuable Pacific strategic ally for decades. What exactly is the US supposedly gaining here?

Maybe it's more likely there's an exchange program between allied Navies, like there is with dozens of other countries??
My biggest woah moment wrt transformers was when I saw a paper that took a pretrained Roberta model and made a slight modification to it's embedding layer to feed in image and audio data and it worked. Granted the performance was probably not on par with actual multi model transformers but the fact that it could figure out how to incorporate multimodal data was not something I ever expected
The LLM is also allowed to respond to arbitrary events of is own, such as time stamps and motion detectors, and it just comes up with what it thinks you want. It would probably work at least as well as these other systems, until it decided that one of your light names was too naughty.

Actually, I created a toy system of a virtual robot that could consume events like FORWARD, LEFT, LOOK UP, SAY [x], etc. ChatGPT was able to control it really well.
The key difference is the EU doesnt have as much enforcement ability because they are not a dictatorship and the people they are governing have higher expectations. None of which is really a credit to the EU.
You say later in this thread:

> I only got told the story by the commander while we were drinking in our state rooms in the JSDF ship, maybe he was lying?

But you're presenting it here with way more credence than that justifies. This is a conspiracy theory and unsurprisingly this is exactly how they get spread.

That's quite a big assumption, but what do you think will happen if you don't offer them any education? They won't earn much or grow the economy and might end up going to prison, which is far more expensive.

Organic compounds. Generally, containing carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds.
The annoying thing about this is that it really depends on your location. I heard wonderful things about Mint so I tried it out a while back. It was awful. But I live in NYC and (my working theory is) data prioritization matters somewhere this dense. Mint traffic gets lower priority than T-Mobile proper so I was getting an awful experience.

But if you live elsewhere your experience might be totally different. If you live in a different NYC borough to me your experience might be totally different!

A lot of MVNOs offer eSIMs at least. An easy way to do a test drive.

Those “underperformers” aren’t being helped in either case. If we can dilute these problematic people into the general population maybe we won’t notice the pool smells distinctly like urine - aka the kiddie pool.

Education isn’t hard or expensive. Providing therapy for years of trauma and neglect is. Trying to focus on algebra when your home life is totally whack is hard. Otherwise what’s the cost of education.. chalk and plastic chairs?

Valuing public welfare is great, but so are the virtues that promote healthy families. Education is done by parents and there’s lots of adults with children who aren’t parents. Personal responsibility is a concept that will actually enrage otherwise intelligent people

Interview with MIT prof and Turing award winner Barbara Liskov.
DNA obviously does not behave like radioactive isotopes, so the half-life is dependent on a lot of external factors. The study presents a model for estimating the half-life of DNA for a given storage temperature assuming otherwise similar conditions to their reference samples. That's obviously useful for anyone working with ancient DNA, since it helps guide attention to samples that could potentially contain recoverable DNA.

The 521 years is just the half-life they estimated for their samples. Those are the empirical results, so it makes sense to highlight those in the title, as opposed to estimates from their model.

I don't mean to be rude, but please read the fine manuscript. It's open access, so you don't need to pay
As one of jira’s bigger brain farts, it seems it’s was recreated and continued in a new ticket.

Open: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-1369

Closed: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-1369

The original JRA-1369 was opened in 2003. Addressed a little in 2019, but not the digests to solve it all. Odd since plug-ins have to. closing this is one way to improve optics I guess.

Ps, I don’t hate Jira. Wasn’t a huge fan and it took a few years to see the light of what it does that so few platforms do when it comes to being able to absorb complexity as it evolves.

Managing evolving complexity is a real thing, and the pain can be reduced by having more in one tool vs not. It’s a tough space, and I think Aha.Io is one tool suited to win their prize and grow into Jira’s space.

Their worst sin remains how many people are subjected to an out of the box install compared to one that is setup to your processes. Tweaking it makes such a difference.
Sentry would be a good bet, yes.
Arguably, any system of assessing and forcing people to pay for the assessed external costs is at odds with capitalism (it is arguably a form of central planning and interference with the free market).

Which is not to say that it isn't a good idea, and the minimum deviation necessary from capitalism to address externalities, but ideological capitalism/free-market purists tend to oppose it pretty strongly.
That's awesome, just rotating the cube is fun.

Not sure where the law says "crossing without checking" is illegal. It clearly states that crossing outside certain defined areas areas is illegal. That alone is massive issue since crossing area are far and few in between especially if you are trying to cross midblock in NYC. So much for "making more sense when you read them"

Rather than using the menu drop down button, I would integrate that into the title of the right panel, so you click the title of the panel and that brings up the options for each section like "Add Tokens, Map Details" etc. I'd also move the exit campaign button out of that menu as it doesn't really affect the right panel so it doesn't feel like it belongs there. I think I'd put it on a permanent overlay in the top left corner over the dice history, and maybe have a confirm exit pop up modal with a setting to turn the modal off. I think I'd also add a way to collapse the dice history panel.
I personally don't even like the tech debt analogy as the term "debt" invokes a psychological reaction which can become a distraction.

There are really just three things: 1) existing code that does not need to change, 2) existing code that should change and 3) non-existent code that should exist. Yay for 1 and are we working on 2 or 3 today?

To me, GNU is usually a lot of the commands that I use within Linux, or operating systems like BSD.

https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/

I am more into programming than philosophy, but the term "free software" figures prominently with GNU.

https://www.gnu.org/software/software.en.html

GNU Herd is around but it is not as prevalent as the Linux kernel.

https://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/

Linux is the kernel and it can access hardware and provide a stable interface to the hardware, and GNU is software. Thus, you'll hear the term GNU/Linux used to describe the operating system. A GNU/Linux operating system being: the GNU operating system commands and the Linux kernel. With these systems, you've got lots of options. You don't have to use GNU, you could just install something like busybox that gives you similar commands to GNU coreutils.

I believe one of the most important pieces of GNU software is the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC.) You can use a GNU/Linux operating system without having GCC installed. To actually build the Linux kernel, compiler tools are required. From Linux's start in the early 1990's that was GCC, although now other non-GNU compiler tools are used as well.

https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter01/h...

https://gcc.gnu.org/

I don't know much about Slackware, but I would imagine you could install GNU commands in Slackware.

You usually need to run an init program to get things started. This could be the init program for s6, OpenRC, runit, busybox-init, systemd, or another init system. Pick one, although the Linux distro usually picks it for you.

My operating systems are a mish-mash of startup managers, kernels, init systems, system commands including a lot of GNU software, networking software, desktop software, audio and video software, games, virtual machines, emulators, you name it.

They can still do a lot. I'd much rather use software I can inspect to talk to the services I really need (firebase push) and replace the ones I can (like location). MicroG is great for that <3

It can even fake some of the more basic safetynet attestation crap and during Covid they made their own version of the Bluetooth thing. Marvin the dev is a great guy.

I don't know why people hate on MicroG so much. Grapheneos devs foam at the mouth when you mention it and in the lineageos irc channel you get Insta kicked when you mention it.

Preferred vs common only matters when the company is sold at loss? The preferred shareholders get priority in terms of being made whole before the common shareholders.

In this case, since series C was 1.5bln and sold for $975m, then the preferred shares were bought during C would be made whole first (assuming the prior rounds were made whole first and there's enough left over for series C preferred) before those who exercised right after the valuation for common shares.

Edit: I forgot that preferred shares also come with liquidation preferences too, meaning that in a loss situation, later employees are highly unlikely to get something
> As I continue my journey as a developer I learn more about myself, and one of the things I’ve learnt is that my motivation ebbs and flows. I’ll have a good run, inhabiting the persona of the developers I look up to, however imperfectly, until I once again find myself with the constraint that trumps all the extrinsic constraints of the project at hand: a deficiency of motivation.

I believe this is the key insight here, and behind every rockstar developer there's just a person that probably has a lull from time to time as well.
Do those charter schools get better results? IIRC, research shows no difference, but maybe that is only in specific locales.
I'm guessing it's a bullet point for use more on terra ferma. Like those stupid keys for light switches in public places, vending machines, etc. They are ridiculously easy to obtain keys that work if someone is inclined.

Yeah Aurora is heavily throttled right now ('this account is rate limited'). Still, I use it because I don't want a Google account on my phone.

The good thing about MicroG is that you can replace some Google stuff with better ones like a local location DB. It's also much lighter because it doesn't spend 90% of its processing time trying to spy on you. Its code is actually written to do stuff on your behalf as the user, not Google's.

Sandboxing real Google Play does stop it from being able to do some of the spying but not all, and it doesn't stop it from trying and wasting battery power.

The only thing I really need from Google is the push messaging because most app services simply don't integrate with anything else :(

Most likely the picture was taken with a monochrome sensor with a filter applied tuned to a specific wavelength. That's more valuable than a color filter, which is made up of a mosaic of single pixel individual red, green and blue filters, interpolated to produce a RGB image.
The EU doesn't have a patriot act; the whole body of decades of EU legislation on tech is still less intrusive than that one single act the US has in place and continues to use extensively. Not to mention that US agencies have a long history of acting outside the law, which has no real equivalent in Europe except maybe Russia. There is a reason why police agencies in Europe want more rights, currently they are very curtailed an unable to handle much of digital crime.

More generally, the EU has some stupid laws but also plenty of important ones that either bring greater good (safe products in the supermarkets, trade standards, common procurement rules, accountability of what national governments do on economic policy and debt levels, ...) or good for a specific sector (strong data protection and rights for instance, tech standards like usb c, etc). Here the discussion is not even about a law but about a proposal for a law where different people and bodies express different views. EU lawmaking is lengthy and quite transparent so you have these discussions often and at various points in the process, which is unusual compared to many national contexts. And it lends itself to viewing and overstating different views. It doesn't help that there are many lobby groups that sound like semi-EU bodies when they are in reality just industry groups of various kinds that make broad demands which are then echoed in the press as some kind of EU positon.

I'm sorry you've been led to have such a negative emotional reaction to the EU, but it just doesn't mirror the actual facts.

Oh sorry, I don't mean replacing the documents entirely. what I've seen is loom videos replacing sections of those documents (where in the past you would have expected screenshots + text to explain decisions or a design). To me, there may/may not be more total information, but the information density is much lower. I think my hierarchy as a reader is: document with good screenshots and text > doc with good loom video > doc with bad loom video > doc with no screenshots / bad text.

Your point is spot on, but I fully expect this to change when (if) self driving cars happen. I see absolutely no chance that automakers arent forced to create government mandated overrides for police or whomever. In fact I think it’s plausible that self driving cars are not allowed on the road without centralized control from the very beginning. Not as some exception, but as a primary feature for controlling traffic as a whole.

I do and have done both and a blend. Secrets for external services needed in dev usually in parameter store. Kinda depends on the existing work flow. There is so much to do you should be tackling problems that move the needle and chip away at small stuff, pet peeve stuff in smaller time-boxed increments.

I put a bunch of smart light switches in my house about 5 years ago. Two of them have failed in the past year and I reverted them back to dumb switches. I'll probably do the same as they continue to fail over time. I found I rarely use the smart features to their full potential. It helps that my house is built to all the modern codes, so I have switches at convenient places and really only use the "smarts" for table lamps and outdoor lighting.
I mean, I admire your optimism that historical texts will somehow shake the foundations of religious institutions. However, speaking as someone who lives in Utah, among folks who base their entire belief system on the ramblings of a 19th century scam artist and, I kid you not, magic plates left by the Ancient Egyptians in Illinois.. I think evidence counter to Judeo-Christian belief systems will change precisely nothing.

On the bright side, it will be really fascinating to those of us who like history. We might learn a thing or two from these ancient texts, so there's certainly a silver lining.
Most people who drive also walk… so it’s a completely facetious argument that motorists pay so they should have priority
Yeah, but it is Musk doing it, so it is different!

It is funny, because so many other programs have had similar failures. How many people have Autopilot like things on their non-Tesla cars that they don't even use because they are uselessly bad? All of these things have been through iterations, including potentially dangerous public iterations.

All the poor naming criticisms of "FSD" and even "FSD Beta" are fair game though.
> The intention is that the logging isn’t voluntary, though

Clearly, that's not the case. It's not like the API slipped in there by mistake. Someone just assumed they can rely on the logs being available.
