Was that claim put forth? Why then does making this difficult matter?

If artists created works of art containing warped logos etc as elements in their art would they be infringing copyright because of these warped logos? But if an artists uses a computer to create the same art instead of real paint that becomes infringement? Because copyright depends on the method of production not just the produced result?

EFI config screens should be text mode only, full-stop. So they can easily be used over serial console redirection.

Ran into one recently that was high-rez graphical. It needed a USB mouse to change critical settings because the tab order for the onscreen widgets didn't work.

Anyone responsible for creating graphical EFI config screens should stop writing software for the good of humanity.
Buyers agents know better how to search the MLS system (though only a few do this). They also line up times to see houses, and take time to drive you to each. So a good buyers agent has spent about 8 hours of time to each buyer, plus expenses. I agree they are getting far too much, but they still are valuable.

Because errors have different semantics. Some should kill your whole app and propagate up to the top layer, where a transaction that wraps the whole http request will be cancelled, or a error screen will be shown to the user. But other errors are part of business as usual — they should be handled explicitly, and type system should force you to do it and match the right exception type.

Personally though I would go with fp-ts.

Florida company got sued for doing it, not because they were doing it, but because they were doing it to someone who was in the Netherlands. NE law overrides right-to-work, even for a US employee, because it's in NE territory.

<Redacted_Name_of_Defense_Prime> subsidiary had a department that did it - "do not turn off computer, do not block camera, if camera inoperative get one from IT" - but it was only for full time WFH staff. Supposedly the machine wouldn't boot up all the way without the camera coming on.

US employees in right to work states probably don't have a legal argument against this. And as always, if you do bring legal action, you're blacklisting yourself pretty badly. Whistleblowing, ethics complains, lawsuits are first filter passes for HR; hell, even for current employees, central "Ethics Hotlines" fire back caller IDs right back to local HR. So the troublemakers can get on the pink slip short list; doesn't hurt that the typical "troublemaker" is mid-late career, so it saves more money too.

So SpaceX is going to build a Starship, which has to travel tens of millions of miles through the unforgiving frontier that is space, at one a day? Boeing manages to build a 737 in about nine days and those land on Earth every few hours of operation for maintenance and checkups.

A few friends shared with me some of the textbooks that their extremely religious sister uses to homeschool her children. They were hilarious! Extremely inaccurate and full of indoctrination garbage. Then we all realized that this is what these kids’ “education” amounts to… not as funny anymore. Maybe their only textbook isn’t the Bible, but that doesn’t mean it’s any good.

After her eldest child was bordering on middle school age and still completely illiterate, she wound up sending the lot back to public schools. Thank god, but I still feel awful for those kids.

(Mandatory “not all homeschoolers” of course.)
Thanks for writing this. This really mirrors my own perspective. Yeah, these tools aren't exactly "learning to fish," but if this gets someone excited about "fishing', then that's a good thing. A lot of my early coding experiences were in a similar vein to what you described, altering gamemaker projects and things like that. And even now I have a lot of fun playing with this AI stuff. It can help me go from 0 to 20% on something I previously knew nothing about, and sometimes that initial boost is all I need to get over the friction and actually do something cool. Or sometimes I realize that it's not worth the amount of effort it would take to go to the next 80%. That's OK too.

I totally understand the cynicism around this stuff, but for me it's like... 99% exciting and cool.
My mom actually texted me once that she didn't like a site I shared with her, because it did not allow her to disable cookies... After a quick investigation it was because they weren't collecting any.
Correct, but I can make the offer with that language and the seller can review that w their agent. If the agent is "just as well off" or even ahead of the game they can direct the ~3% I whatever way makes sense to get the deal done.
This whole thing is about agent commissions. The comment I'm replying to says "just list it yourself" in direct response to "I would love for there to be some sort of competition injected into real estate commissions."

Determining responsibility and liability for an LLM (Large Language Model) output is a complex and evolving challenge. It involves a shared responsibility between the creators of the LLM, the platform hosting it, and the users amazon fulfillment centers who generate content. The creators bear responsibility for training and fine-tuning the model, the platform must provide clear guidelines and content moderation, and users need to exercise ethical and legal judgment when using the technology.

This should be fixed now. The HN traffic was way above the rate limit allowed by our data provider API.

It's true that white working class people are the most likely to non engage politically for a variety of reasons, but it's also generalizing to say that working class PoC inherently care or adopt the same political ideas as the professional classes. Even among Black Southerners (who are very politically organized), whether someone agrees with modern social justice/intersectional frameworks is going to depend highly on other factors such as age and level of religiosity.

> then another less expensive/effortful path could be hiring an afterschool math tutor, or sitting down with your child to work through Khan Academy together.

...so now after your child spends hours every day at school, they have to spend yet more hours learning what they should have learned in school.

You can see why so many parents decide that for more effort, they can save their child a lot of wasted time, effort, resentment, and bad influences. Particularly families where at least one parent can stay at home (and these days, working from home makes that so much easier once kids are old enough to learn by themselves).
Just because it's 'not much time for turnover' doesn't mean there's plenty of younger companies with much higher lifetime turnover.

In the tech industry, the average annual turnover rate is 13.5%. If I'm doing my math right, that amounts to a lifetime turnover of 77% for an average 10 year tech company assuming flat employee count over the time period, or 51% for the same company with linear growth from zero over the time period. Both are well above the 10% this company is claiming.

(The 77% came from 1 - ((1-0.135)*10), and the 51% came from 1.0 - ((1-0.135)*10)0.1 - ((1-0.135)*9)0.1 - ((1-0.135)*8)*0.1 ... to sample even cohorts of 10, 9, 8, etc. years making up equal portions of the population.)

I was raised in a conservative Christian denomination and left it for a progressive one, and I’ve learned you can’t say “Christianity is ___” and be at all accurate. There are too many different Christianities. There are denominations that are pro-debate, pro-introspection, pro-logic, pro-science. They’re aiming for exactly what the GP is getting at: how best to live out the commandment to love one another, to build a society on earth where we care for each other and live up to our potential.

I bring this up not because I want to wave my “not all Christians” flag, but because it is really important for our common civic life that post-religious people understand there is more to religion than the sad toxic morass they grew up with. Society doesn’t need religion to die off. It needs religion to evolve. It needs people who are naturally religious (and there are a lot of us, we’ve evolved that way) to come together for the common good, not get shoved into a back closet to worship illegally in secret.

As a christian I already have a region that is not debatable. That helps me be more willing to debate all the things outside. Communist, capitalist, jew, muslim, hindu, cannibal, republican, democrat, green, other sect of christian - all the same to me, something I'm not religiously attached to so I can try to understand. Some of those I understand enough to conclude they are wrong.

I know some who are strongly religious about their political party. I was treasurer of my local Republican party for a while, but I was able to leave them when the party it self starting going off of the things I supported them for (the local party is still pretty good). I might return in the future, we will see.

One thing that is interesting about this is how one may not need to travel to some far and remote place to experience low light pollution.

In the map of the UK, for example, low light pollution can be experienced within a 2 hr train ride from London to Wales, Devon or Cornwall. Similarly for France or Spain.

Central Europe and Eastern US has little such luck, though.
This also shows the power of marketing. ChromeOS is a subset of Linux -- it doesn't do anything you couldn't always have done with Ubuntu. But for years people said that normal people don't want Linux, it doesn't run their apps, they can't use it.

One company shows up with a marketing budget and it's got triple the market share and is now up to the level that Mac traditionally held when all of the things "nobody makes for Linux" because "nobody uses it" supported that.

We're also at the point where things like bank websites don't "officially" support Linux, but as a general rule they don't have any problems on it, and if they did have problems it would be a problem the bank has to deal with instead of a problem the customer has to deal with.

Incredibly rude comment
I’m trying to get it to answer only in executable Python. I used the template with instructions I use for my system prompt on gpt4. And I tried using the additional context field for the same.

It gets to writing the expected code but it still wants to include formatted headings instead of commenting those out so the entire response is executable Python.

As a follow up I provided an example heading with the hash out front. It didn’t work.

Any ideas on how to get it to this? Fwiw, gpt4 often if ignores this request, but only about half the time. When it does it is typically a single block of explanatory text.

For that, I include prose detection and commenting as part of my post processing.

Also, I don’t see it easily, but do you have an API for this or is it intended to be run by the user?

I can't speak generally, but in the Rust ecosystem the various crates don't play well together. Here's one example: <https://github.com/tokio-rs/tracing/issues/2648> There are four crates involved (tracing-attributes, tracing-opentelemetry, opentelemetry, and either of opentelemetry-{datadog,otlp}) and none of them fit properly into any of the others.

That's not exactly a fair comparison. If you restricted your usage of btrfs to a similarly narrow range of features, you would probably have had a much better experience.

That's pretty unambiguously an act of terror rather than a legitimate military act.

I'm not saying Israel has never done anything wrong. But when Hamas calls for a day of terror - it's not reasonable to interpret them as anything other than a terrorist group. They're not exactly hiding the fact that they're terrorists.

kernel developers are free to factor in common functionality, calling into it library style, without making it into an externally visible layer. IIRC fs encryption and case insensitivity are often done that way, and I think I'd count the page cache and bios as larger library-style components as well (as opposed to the VFS layer which is more in a framework style).

Commissions for the seller's relator are fine, but they shouldn't be based on the full price of the house. This setup encourages quick sales rather than getting the best price. Instead of the realtor earning 3% on a $1,000,000 house, set a base amount at, say, $700,000 and calculate the commission only on the remainder - 10% on $300,000. The same principle should apply to the buyer's agent but in reverse or there should be a flat fee. Their current incentive structure is totally screwed up.

> My main complaint about people who dislike telemetry is they never acknowledge its good uses and they never state what telemetry is objectionable.

There's a good reason for that: it is an asymmetric relationship.

The person who enabled telemetry isn't necessarily the user of the software. Ie. it can be mandated or put on by a sysadmin (even by mistake), without user's say. On top of that, the user of the software and/or sysadmin are unable to assess whether they want to share the data because they cannot analyze the data beforehand. They lack the expertise in doing so.

Meanwhile I have to disable telemetry every friggin' time I use Mozilla Firefox. It gets old, having to say 'no' all the time, ya know? I now realize how it feels being a young woman on the market. Geez, I feel sorry for my daughter. The shit she'll have to endure, sayin' 'no' all the time.
As neither this article nor the Wikipedia one provide a table with version history, I did some digging and found this table[0].
