This is one of stallman's blunders. This was impossible to be not misunderstood.

Posts aren't read carefully and completely. That's just a fact of life, no surgical removal necessary. when people read about "willing" in context of trafficked rape victims, they ask themselves what the fuck the point of mentioning that is. Is it okay to rape a teenager if they represent willing?

Of course that is not at all what Stallman was implying, and if he was just some dude I would have been very sympathetic. But he was the president of a lobby organisation. He can't go around being completely unaware that it's not only about what you say, but also how you say it and what words you use. He can't believe in a world where everyone else will calmly and carefully engage with the whole of his argument.

Also, for a lot of people, "perceived willingness" is just too high concept - especially when the topic is as sensitive as this.

Stallman was, again, 100% in the right but the way he made is argument could only lead to this outcome.
> Instead they removed everything but error codes and "Oops :("

According to the article, they didn't. The pop up has the error code and a descriptive error message. And no "Oops :(".
I am in no way conservative, but I think you are missing the point.

There are sets of liberal and conservative beliefs that are held by the wealthy and powerful that are detrimental to the powerless and poor.

He cites the liberal set, maybe he is a conservative and that’s his bias or maybe because there is an inbuilt hypocrisy in some of them, ultimately it doesn’t matter because the point stands on its own and one shouldn’t discount that.
It is important to understand the limitations of logic and maths. They are fundamentally tautological systems - they can’t give you genuinely new knowledge about the world. Logic can’t tell you if purple swans exist or whether planetary orbits are circular or elliptical. You need empirical evidence for that.

So information theory might give you a measure of the complexity of a theory, but can’t (on its own) say anyting about whether it is true or not.

But hypothetically there could (as you suggest) be a correlation between the complexity of competing scientific theories and which theory turns out to best match evidence. But is there any empirical evidence for this to be the case? Just because it would be nice does not make it true, and it is not something you can prove mathematically.
Super. Furry. Animals.
The best way to fix that is for other countries to start improving their consumer protection laws so cutting off "problem" countries becomes less and less feasible for unscrupulous businesses. Meanwhile (slightly) more ethical companies can take over the EU market.
Bro and where do you think the containers and scheduler run? There is a whole linux underneath running all the time
The thing is not using try/catch, like the first case, sometimes you don't know if a function will throw or not. You can't tell from the function signature as well.

So this provides a way that told you the function you called might throw. It's more like an alert before a crash.

[res, err] is good, actually I used this style for a long time. `unwrapit` is a nicer way to let you write [res, err], like type hints and other utility methods.

I wonder where would you put countries like Norway or Poland.
Russia has (had?) good relations with Israel, despite a large number of differences with it.

Then again, Russia would definitely benefit from the conflict if it heats up further.
Having worked minimum wage jobs, we know, understand and talk about trickle down economics.

We also know the government taxing carbon or giving employment advantages to (often wealthy or connected) minorities rather than people who need it.

Luxury beliefs are common amongst the educated and twist demands for Justice for all into demands for privileges for themselves!
Or “you broke Reddit” style, where that’s never the case.
There is a pretty good website and API for it: https://vectorizer.ai/
If this was true then Microsoft could've made it so that you gave to have a certified controller.
There’s quite a lot of Americans who don’t believe in any of that stuff.
Good point. I forgot Microsoft doesn't have any stake in that market and would never do anything to infringe PC user freedom.
OK, maybe I'm biased here as a PC gamer who frequently uses a controller... but why not just allow both? Some games like Gears of War on Xbox already do this. Others, like Fortnite, offer crossplay and just show a symbol over each player's head.

Do mouse and keyboard players have an advantage? Sure. So do players with bigger TVs or Series X graphics or less worn controllers or the Elite controller. Big deal?

The PC ecosystem has had open control interfaces since forever, whether it's flight sticks or foot pedals or steering wheels or 3d controllers or all of the above. Both in coop and competitive games, people use whatever input devices they like (and can afford). Somehow the ecosystem hasn't collapsed.

I love my Xbox controller, but it's simply an inferior input for shooters. It's superior in many other genres (action RPGs, driving and flight sims, arcade battles, side scrollers). It all evens out.

I don't get the big deal here. Why purposefully handicap your player base instead of letting them use whatever they want?

And autofire... eh, seems like a non issue. Why not just give the weapons a max semi auto fire rate?
> we never asked people to hide the color of their skin

We have a bunch of regulations around "you can't even ask the person about that", specifically because companies cannot be trusted not to discriminate based on it.
At least it was easy to see you had no interest to present factual arguments and just regurgitated what you read online. For somebody asking empathy about your childhood, you seem to give very little to others.
Without going to much into this, e.g. I am sure you have used free Wifi in a Café before ?
> Storing previous_visitor=1 into local storage is not the type of tracking most people are objecting to

Who are you to speak for "most people". I do object to that kind of cookie being placed without my explicit consent. It provides at least some identifying information that might allow multiple websites working together to uniquely identify you.
I’d have to read this specific decision but my opinion is that while the GDPR says the user can refuse consent “by automated means” it doesn’t specify what those means are, thus making it quite hard to follow, enforce and therefore likely that other courts will decide differently on similar cases. E.g. would my own “X-Tracking-Is-Stupid: don’t track me” header be valid as refusing consent? What if I add it as a query parameter in the URL? And so on - DNT is not special in the eyes of the law.
If this were true, then wouldn't your browser sending out personal data constitute consent to have that data tracked? After all, the website asks you to give them the data and the browser complies.
Microsoft is hard at work trying to control the software you put on it through code signing in the form of Secure Boot and signatures on user software. We haven't quite got Authorized peripherals excepting HDCP in the bluray-to-display path. You have kernel level anti cheat mechanisms there at the expense of private servers.

The volume of information generated in companies is increasing rapidly. According to Okta's research, companies in 2023 use an average of 89 apps at work, with this number increasing to 211 for companies with over 2000 employees.
Really love the pace of Apple innovations. Nowadays, I am biased towards battery and weight (MacBook Air) if it is for portability and the other line of notebooks are converted into desktops via TB exactly because of weight and battery life. I feel the difference in battery use from one to the other. The Air seems like it has "infinite battery" evn when the others use Mx processors.

Also waiting for a great Linux port battery/weight wise.
So, when Apple says 128-bit or 512-bit or 1024-bit wide interface to LPDDR4x/LPDDR5, does this really mean just a number that is derived from number_of_channels x channel_width?

E.g. 128-bit memory wide bus in case of LPDDR type of memory is really just 8x 16-bit channels or, in a different word-size configuration, 4x 32-bit channels.

If that is so, my understanding is that Intel Tiger Lake with its 2x 64-bit channel design would equal to the same 128-bit memory bus width as M1, although, coupled with different type of memory chip technology - DDR4 instead of LPDDR.
The most antisemitism lately in my twitter feed comes from the academia and leftist intellectuals. The right leaning seems to be a pro make gaza the biggest parking in the middle east breed.
Yes true. If the service can be provided without collecting and processing certain data you can not coerce the user to "consent" to you doing so in order to access your service. E.g. the good old growth hack of collecting newsletter subscriptions by email-gating a "free e-book" behind a newsletter signup form.

There does seem to be a loophole for enforcing tracking ads as "legitimate interest" (i.e. not seeking consent) if you also offer a paid subscription without them, which is what a lot of German news sites seem to have shifted to. There was a recent court case in Germany however because a company got sued for not providing an option to not consent to everything that wasn't related to ads (e.g. analytics, third-party widgets and so on) and most sites seem to now provide granular controls even when they force ads if you don't want to pay. Note that they still have to lazy load the ads after consent is given in order to be compliant. I'm not sure if this way of forcing ads is compliant throughout the EU as it feels more of a gray area given that the site usually sends the full article and then gates it behind a consent modal on the client, i.e. there's no technical requirement to show the ads, just a sustainability one.
If error codes can be looked up, why can't the software displaying the error code just do the lookup and show a proper error message?
After reading how it works, I can get to around 50% by doing the following: pick a pattern of f's and d's of length between 1-5. Type that pattern. Pause for a second or two. Then change the pattern. Patterns can be, for example: only d's four times; alternate between f and d three times; single f; one f for every two d's two times.

In fact, now that I "get it", I don't even need to consciously pick a specific pattern, I just smash the buttons and "somehow" change the way I smash them every five or so smashes. I get around 50% prediction rate pretty consistently with this.
Trying to find patterns of ideological consistency in geopolitics is probably not useful approach.
Yes, both sides are super bad.

I imagine the president can make things difficult, like with Pretty Good Privacy - which was exported in book-form?
What's the difference? An Xbox is essentially one already.
It would be a different matter if something like PyPy would be the reference implementation, but alas we are quite far from it.

As it stands, any AOT/JIT compiled language has an edge over Python, considering using only the reference implementation, which is quite relevant on systems were one cannot expect to allowed to install additional development tools.

As for the bindings to native libraries, yeah Python might be favoured for bindings, however those native libraries can be called by any language that has FFI capabilities anyway, alongside their JIT/AOT capabilities.
There are many valid reasons (and many wrong reasons). I would say: If you have multiple stakeholders, evoling business needs and many ( > 10) developers, there might be a good reason to have independent deployable, testable and releaseable units. Having few developers with a well defined context working on multiple microservices is a pain, though.

Regarding "Everything else is just shifting complexity from software development to system maintenance.": This sounds reasonable if your software is actively developed. Development is expensive. It may very well be, that the costs of maintaining a distributed system is lower then the cost of developing a very large monolith with a large team. In the end, it depends.
What does the number of external displays have to do with the laptop being "pro", whatever that means? My Air drives a single 43" screen at home, I literally can't fit more screens on my desk. At the office anyone can grab a screen (they're nice, 4K and around 27-30" I think), some people use them, some don't (e.g. people with 16" MacBooks).
> Does Pakistan has the same geopolitical influence as the US from the atomic bomb? Or France?

Or even the Russian Federation, which may be a better comparison: I think it was only the USA and the USSR (from whom modern Russia inherited all the weapons) who decided to fight over arsenal size well beyond the point of MAD, rather than keep to the cheapest deterrent against a first strike.

That said, IMO the USA's strategic dominance between the end of WW2 and the fall of the USSR was significantly influenced by them having nukes, even though they didn't use them and I think they had more than they needed for mere deterrence — it mattered then more than now.
He also has posts about Jordan Peterson that are behind a paywall but I get the feeling that they are not particularly critical of Peterson.
Replying to my own comment with another method to get a low prediction rate: pick a song or a beat and drum the buttons to the tune of that song (how you map more than two different sounds to just two buttons is up to you).
Reminds me of the problems with contested borders, which e.g. Yandex runs into because they operate in Western and non-Western jurisdictions. They ended up just removing all national borders from the maps for this reason, which has made the UX worse, especially for international trip planning.

Google (used to?) opts for a different approach where some borders are drawn based on where they geolocated you to.
Even if a third-party is involved, they could serve ads based on the content of the page instead of showing me ads for the products I bought yesterday.
I don't understand what are these immense benefits, to catch more criminals? Since when has throwing more people in jail reduced crime?

Did you read the article?

>"It's really the fault of Little Mustache," wrote a netizen. "If he had burned all of them (Jews), we wouldn't have this much trouble."

Nobody on the left or right in the west is that anti-Semitic, at least not publicly.
did not know that! The Apple webpage somehow threw me off. Thanks. Would be a bit hard downgrade from a 16inch 3:2, but I'll keep it as an option if I need to get a new laptop at some point
> it could easily be just opting to not display any disputed borders

Aren't the majority of China's maritime borders disputed?
>China is not exactly pro-muslim as we all know

All of the stans seem to get quite well with China, they are buddies with Iran and the Gulf and they make major investments in the green crescent in africa. They also get well with Malaysia.

That is quite pro muslim. The only muslims they have problems with are the one inside their borders. So less than 1% of the total muslims in the world.
Is that so? Event if you check that on the client side without sending that data to the server?
As Palestinians are technically Semitic people, the right is also antisemitic. :^)
Building an interpreter or a compiler from a grammar is an interesting idea. I can't immediately see how to go about it - the grammar would need to match on SSA or similar.

The examples have a lisp-like interpreter at https://github.com/ohmjs/ohm/blob/main/examples/simple-lisp/... which definitely uses a grammar for parsing and might use a generic AST representation.

Will have to think more - a grammar might be a worthwhile way to specify a nanopass style compiler pipeline.
If it is "trivially verifiable" then you should be able to provide examples.

Some anti cheat tools, such as "Easy Anti Cheat" are supported on Steam Deck, some are not supported yet. Perhaps some will never be supported. AFAIK these later categories are generally due to anti cheat hooking into low level windows functionality that Proton doesn't support. You could argue this is "blocking open software" but that would be a stretch since this behavior is generally better described as a lack of support rather than explicit blocking

None of it is due to game publishers including code that limits the hardware that windows runs on (blocking open hardware).
Nothing Apple hasn't been doing for years at much greater magnitudes without many objections from the tech crowd.

Makes me sick to the stomach, but everyone seems to love Steve Jobs, the genius inventor, that never actually invented anything and died of a treatable cancer because he actually was a complete moron and didn't get treatment, because "he knew better" and opted for alternative medicine. Which reminds me of the joke: "You know what they call alternative medicine that's been proven to work? Medicine."
Being known for anything by millions of people is a perfectly valid indication of popularity.

If I had to pay a dollar a month to keep seeing Van Gogh paintings, or Andy Warhol, or any artist for that matter. I don't care about art and I doubt the vast majority of humanity would consider spending money on access to any particular artist's work, excluding bands and such.

The art world professional artists and art critics see isn't the art world most people see. Some look at a banana taped to a wall and see a strong message about the state of the art industry, or see the peanut butter floor as a daring exercise in discovering the boundaries of art, but I just see pretentious idiots scamming rich people into giving them money. There's a lot of value to art, but that value isn't necessarily based on what the art industry considers valuable.
Norway is a US client state; Poland could become sovereign but they're too busy trying to annoy literally everyone doing any business with them from any side, for whatever reason.
That is insane, and if you apply the same reasoning to other things it outlaws science.

Man if America can keep its own crazies in check and avoid becoming a fascist hellhole it’s entirely possible the US will dominate the 21st century like it did the 20th.

It could have been China but then they decided to turn back to authoritarianism. Another decade of liberalizing China and they would have blown right past everyone else. Meanwhile the EU is going nuts in its own way, less overtly batty than MAGA but perhaps no less regressive. (I am also thinking of the total surveillance madness they are trying to ram through.)
Great.

try/catch has no problem, but the premise is that you know there will be errors been thrown. Say a function `divide`, you can barely tell that whether it will throw errors or not without looking into the source code.
they probably mean Sun(Oracle) JVM on ARM, as far as I remember there where tons of issues with that one

and in general there where tons of issues with multi threaded code during the time Java did move to the "current" memory model (was that in Java 1.5 or Java 1.6? I don't remember), through Sun(Oracle) JVM having issues on ARM was still a think after a huge part of the ecosystem moved to Java 1.6+ but I think wasn't anymore much of an issue when Java 1.8 was approaching but uh that was many years ago the my memory is a bit vague
> So you’ve never encountered a situation where going against the grain, even if for completely good reasons, fails? I know I’ve been in that place more than once.

I'd rather be wrong on my own decision than on one I blindly followed from someone else :)

And it's not about going against the grain. It's about making conscious decisions rather than blind following. The outcome can very well be the same as everyone else's of course.
That's a really weak argument.

1) It has nothing to do with racism but uses the accusation of someone being racist as a tool to push an agenda.

2) Japan still makes good sushi. Supermarket sushi has not destroyed japanese sushi culture

3) I'd argue that capitalism has made the world better in pretty much every aspect. You could argue that capitalism has destroyed the environment, but the fact is that leftist countries have a history of being even more destructive.

4) "white people have no culture"
But people all over the world drink coke, watch american movies, drink french wine, eat italian food, drive german cars and they seem to like their smartphones.

I often make the mistake of thinking HN is populated mostly by ... well, hackers. While there's plenty of us here, most users are from the startup crowd, where "hacker" is more of a buzzword than anything.

Of course this makes sense, it's just something that slips my mind every once in a while.

The forums usually take a while and a while and a lot of back and forth to arrive at a solution that works for maybe 80% of people under most circumstances, but is usually more of a workaround than a proper fix. (And there isn't necessarily just one cause of the error code, or one solution. The console doesn't know which is which without situational judgment)

The error codes are sort of a self service mechanism for advanced users who want to try unofficial troubleshooting. They're not a substitute for a real patch fixing the root issue.

Finally! I've been waiting for this. This is great news, let's hope it doesn't get appealed. Imagine someone asking you if you want to have sex with them, you say no.

This. In the announcement they stated "transparent to developers" but I really need to see some specifications, benchmarks, introspection tooling, and details. This is one of those things that sounds great in theory but is likely not quite possible to do without some compromises somewhere.

Also seems like this would have to be something "opt in" or else what stops someone from just using GL/Vulkan/Metal to allocate and lock a giant buffer every frame anyway?

I'm optimistic, but I am really eager to see the documentation.
