You’re the one making the extraordinary claim that Google has the authority to force Qualcomm into a far reaching support agreement. That kind of claim deserves evidence from you if you want it to be taken seriously. I never claimed to be a lawyer.

Google can certainly ask Qualcomm to provide more support, but I would be very surprised if they haven’t already done that.

Android is open source. If Google overstepped, then Samsung and Qualcomm would fork Android. They don’t need Google, but I’m sure they prefer to mutually benefit with Google.

Google is not Microsoft. Android is not Windows. Google does not “own” Android in the way that Microsoft owns Windows.

I have attempted to have a good faith conversation about your original reply, but you don’t seem interested. This conversation is going nowhere, so again… good luck with that.
I only use Superchargers for long journeys, and I don’t do many. Even when I do it’s only 20mins max and then off.

I haven’t used any public charging in the last 3 months.

I have command line program that I use to give me a list of window titles. If there are too many of certain kind (browser windows...), I close some until I get under a certain threshold. Anyway, I was reading the stuff in the articles and well the text in the terminal turned red after I got that list. Some terminal/shell combinations seem better at recovering than others. Firefox (and other browsers that have a similar problem) should sanitize title data. As other have pointed out, perhaps window managers should filter or not allow control/escape characters in the titles.

Just goes to show how important sanitizing data from unknown sources is.

Should curl, w3m, wget and similar sanitize the data? One can argue that some times you want to pipe the raw data and other times one might not be thinking about the escape sequences and get burned. I would be inclined to say that the tools should filter/escape the dangerous stuff and have a flag like "--raw".

Coqui TTS v0.18
XTTS model release (Text-to-Speech and voice cloning)

# From the release notes:

This model is trained on top of XTTS v1, using output masking. We mask the part of the output that is used as the audio prompt while training and don't compute loss for that segment. This helps us to resolve the hallucination issue that V1 experienced.

- Add Japanese
- Resolve the hallucination issue (repeating the audio prompt)
- Increased expressivity
- Added ne_hifigan that was trained without denoising that brought some EQ and compression profile that might be unwanted for some use-cases
> Most Mexicans don't look like that.

By definition this is true of any group. Most people do not look alike. There’s no way to have a single picture of what “most Mexicans” look like.
California is very expensive for what you get, and grew to become quite unpleasant to live in. High crime rate and a bunch of woke DAs and activists makes family life in the Bay area uncomfortable. And then you're supposed to pay a premium for it all? Expensive daycare, indoctrinating schools, crappy government and private services, high taxes, NIMBYs, and the constant moral judgment of kidless activists who know what's best.

If I were single and in my 20s, SF would be where I go for all the bright minds. But the calculus as a 30s yo with a family is that California overplayed its hand. We left and aren't coming back unless a lot changes.

Even disregarding the human rights violations and lack of labor protection, there are fundamental problems with Apple's relationship with China. This isn't a business decision we're talking about, this is a domestic supercorporation using China as a crutch. America turns the other eye because tax money spends well, but the PRC keeps our highest-valued public company on a leash. That's... fucked up, considering the politics of the situation.

If you think the leash doesn't hurt and China is liable to be friendly towards America, that's your moral crusade. In my opinion, things have already gone too far.
Honestly, the complexity of most systems I've worked on those last 15 years has only grown. Everything require umpteen libraries to show a char on screen (and be inefficient at that). We're still blocked in the 80's for a lot of protocols because of backward compatibility with a ton of hack on top of it. We have built tool on top of other tool to manage the mess we've created, that no one understand at the end.

That's where we're losing time. Dealing with an inherited mess.
> 'Debit' only means 'the left hand side', and 'credit' only means 'the right hand side'.

Well, it is a bit more than that. It is the two sides which must balance, so you put them on those sides in order to make them balance. For example, you would put assets and expenses on the debit side, liabilities and revenue and capital are on the credit side, so they will be added up because e.g. you would earn money (a asset) in the debit side and the equal number of revenue on the credit side, so you can see that they are equal.

Of course you could consider them addition and subtraction (in either order; the diagrams in the article use the convention that debit is positive and credit is negative, while you seem to be using the opposite convension) and then consider that they add up to zero, which is mathematically equivalent to the description above.

The diagrams in the article is another way; the arrows are pointing toward the debit side in these diagrams (so the Sales and Capital are shown as negative because they are in the credit side). ("Now, by convention, accountants flip the sign on all of the blue and pink nodes’ balances" is also because they are in the credit side.)

Or the "matrix accounting" that I had made up, where the balance is represented by the equation (which doesn't have any reference of "debits" and "credits", etc):

<BAL|FSV> = 0

(<BAL| is assumed to be a constant, while |FSV> is considered to vary over time and represents the financial state vector. (It is a kind of projective space.))

Hello waterfall my old friend. How have you been doing?

But seriously.. there's levels to planning. There's strategic planning which is less often and then implementation of delivery stages which is more on going. It is helpful to know if something will be delivered in 2 weeks or 2 months. The problem is when the dev team says 2 weeks but discovers more and knows it will be 6 weeks but the deadline is firmly set to the initial 2 week estimate.
This makes me sad. I love my iPhone 13 Mini and I have no idea what I'll use when it dies.

When you say "ignore" do you mean a) you see it, read it, then delete/ignore it; b) you see it, see you don't recognize, and delete/ignore without reading; or, c) you never see it because of app/OS settings filtering it?

I am pretty solidly in camp A, I will read every text message that hits my phone but if it's spam or something like that I will just get pissed off and remember not to give that company/person any money ever. But I still read it.
Google news is a mess and doesn't work. Perhaps if you had all the requisite subscriptions. As of right now, it seems to direct you to a family of many publishers with separate plans.

This makes google news itself pretty hard to use. I think complaining about "paywalls" in general is stupid, but it's really hard for the news reader this way.

Part of the problem for me, is it seems like it's still very hard to get away from the web 2.0 part of news anyway. Is subscribing going to reduce the clickbait journalism? Nope.

I have apple news, and the quality of what I see isn't exactly encouraging me to go out and buy more subs. I will probably still get shotty, rage inducing content, just like I get on reddit.

By the way this same pattern seems to hold with local stations. In fact local publishers more pay walled, for important local stories. I think you could argue these are the subs I should pay for the most.
I’ve subscribed to the Point mag before but agree that this article is not a highlight. The quality of prose varies but for a literary and cultural criticism magazine that’s not one of the giants, I think it’s still worth supporting.

Although the pilots cannot be blamed for not understanding the undocumented controls of the 737, one (multiple?) incident(s) were mitigated due to very experienced pilots understanding the fundamentals of the plane. Think of the pilot knowledge as a second line of defense, against an incident that should have never happened (again - not the pilots fault, but the additional knowledge helped).

I recommend reading “Flying Blind” for more detailed accounts of the precursor lion air flight that almost crashed.

Humans, you are thinking of humans. AI is a tool built on top of predicting next token using training dataset.

Thinking AI translation between humans and other animals would be anything real is preposterous and dangerous until there is training data for that. Data provided by human scientists. Who would have to learn to communicate with other animals first.

Knowing that other animals feel pain should be enough to not eat meat, as long as you can get equivalent nutrition.

Romhacks are typically modifying the compiled binary ROM image. Kaze' work is based on the painstakingly disassembled code from the n64decomp project[1]. He's working in C, modifying the game and compiling it again for the original hardware. Not sure I'd call that a "romhack".

Probably because software engineers are not mathematicians. Also, you're not doing foundational research or breaking away at the edge of human knowledge either. Similarly, mathematicians are not immune to deadlines either.
A majority of these sort of posts seem to be mainly to generate clicks from people who have an axe to grind about California, they offer no real insights.
I repeat this idea to others all the time. Anyone that doesn’t believe it must not have experienced much or any racism at all.
Even more, SF is just a very small part of the Bay Area in general, which with the remote-first movement has also expanded to the north (Santa Rosa) and south (Santa Cruz).

There are many many places that are nice to live in California - and I almost don’t want to tell anyone about my town (Aptos) because I don’t want it overrun. :)

Not just browsers, users also rightfully malign the primary selection. I highlight text for all sorts of reasons (including because I already have something that I want to paste).

Wow, I never heard of that. There is an amazing discussion of how the astronauts didn't trust nasa. Plus the one guy not getting strapped in until they were pretty far down. They definitely thought they were goners. I wonder what they needed to use the shuttle for, that was too big, giant telescope or dish?
And they'll either stay or go up until the employment rate goes down significantly. Naturally, they'll go up as lenders need more risk compensation for lending the money out.
Did anyone ever get asked to simply make the estimate lower? Without any other context? That never happened to me, it sounds extremely immature.

Feedback that you don’t agree with the estimate on the other hand, happens all the time. This is a completely different thing than a hollow request for “lower plx”.

Good stakeholders often do have a good idea of how long time things take. Maybe they worked as dev before, or with other clients. Leaving the estimation exclusively for the well oiled hero-team with perfectly calibrated velocity and ponies coming out of their retrospectives, as the article portrays it, isn’t always ideal either. Some tasks are new and unknown to them too, and honestly not all teams are that perfect. There needs to be a two-way dialogue about scope contra timing.
It's platform politics, at the end of the day. It's Apple's platform, they choose what to stock it with.

IITs are prestigious institutions. They’re not OKish institutions in the slightest.
I think it's dangerous to think in this way: I succeeded without college, so everyone can, so college should be abolished.

Not everyone has the discipline to self learn through a course. Not every one knows how to properly and effectively absorb and retain knowledge, and not everyone knows how to make that knowledge useful. What college does is provide structure and a favorable environment for learning where you're among peers, sharing the same experience and learning together "how to learn".

Some people are able to get fit by themselves, others need structure and guidance, so you have a whole industry of gyms and personal trainers and programs that require attendance.

My point is that this attitude towards college (or other forms of structured/formal learning) might be what is creating large numbers of full stack developers, devops who only know terraform, etc, who couldn't debug the first networking issue even if the error message was right in the browser. Moreover, the official point of college is that it provides some level of confidence to your peers, employers and customers that at the very least you know the fundamentas of your profession, because without them it is not enough that you're a react wizard, or a microsservices expert.

I think if there were a baseline of required knowledge, most products we build would perform better, consume less resources and fail less.
Yeah. One striking conclusion from the data is that MP3 sales never really took off in an appreciable way and only for a short period. Some of that is perhaps obscured by "Buy the CD and rip" but, given the decline in CD sales, not really.

An analyst friend of mine once said that the Napster win was about convenience, not cost. I was skeptical at the time but there's some evidence of that.

Having to identify as a chatbot and provide a call back number was a requirement under some states' laws - while this seems like something they should have looked into before advertising it, my comment was with a wider scope to how it performs: it's not flexible and it doesn't sound natural.
That's a refreshing take.

I tried real hard to understand what some continental philosophers, such as Latour, Deleuze, and Žižek are on about, giving some of their texts quite some benefit of the doubt. After about ten years of doing so, I am more and more returning to my previous opinion that some of these just like to talk, and even though they have lots to say, they say so much, that I still have to do all the actual philosophizing myself.

Literally anything latency sensitive is appropriate for edge. Off-device voice recognition is a miserable experience anytime you have less than a perfect connection. Imagine clicking an object in photoshop, using AI to determine the edges… and every time you click, photoshop bundles the image, uploads it to the cloud, and waits five seconds for every select clicking to be scheduled, dispatched, and returned. Imagine running the camera app with ML object recognition focusing, except the cloud is focusing your camera and tracking objects in the viewfinder, with a three second lag.
