Here in Germany we have some laws that makes dangerous, aggressive by nature, dogs not to be owned/sold/bought legally.

With minor dangerously dogs, one can make a dog's personality test, where the dogs are made angry on purpose. If they bark/behave (very) angry - then, you're not allowed to keep them.

It's a good solution. Dogs like caucasian ovcharka, with a very strong territorial behavior are way to dangerous to be owned by people. If I take a look at some dog owners, I have to think about who's owning whom actually. One of the caliper of an caucasian ovcharka is a deadly, uncontrollable weapon. Even experienced hands can't handle them properly.

So robo-dogs is a solution, because the personality is a matter of the firmware.
You can see the difference:

That's a weirdly precise measurement of the temperature of sunlight. Colour temperature isn't really a precise way of measuring colour since not even a body like the sun really acts as a black body emitter. All that said, colour temperatures around six thousand kelvins are certainly describable as white and not as yellow.

The closest equivalent to the nixos ISO builder and reproducibility related to it in the fedora ecosystem is osbuild / imagebuilder - https://www.osbuild.org/guides/introduction.html

Imagebuilder claims reproducibility, but as far as I know it mostly installed rpm packages as binaries, not from source, so it's not really proper reproducibility unless all the input packages are also reproducible.

If the descriptions of building packages from source, building distro images, and reproducibility in the linked thread didn't make sense to you, you're probably not really the target audience anyway.

I don’t see what the problem is.

well actually I do. The problem lies within ourselves. If you cannot access the media, why not just not watch it? I know it’s hard because of our addictions and boredom, but that is an option.

The reason why these companies can keep charging higher and higher prices and keep giving less and less quality service is because of our addiction.

I see genetics being used as a “just so” explanation for all kinds of things that the science doesn’t really support, by people with different ideologies depending on the thing they’re trying to justify.

We take obviously mostly-genetically-determined traits like height, eye/hair/skin colour, facial features etc, then extrapolate to argue/assume that all kinds of other things must also be genetically determined, like cognition, behavioral patterns, emotional patterns, for which there is far less evidence of them being hard-coded in DNA. This will be confounded by the fact that we can often see commonalities in these factors from parents to children and between siblings, and assume these commonalities exist due to genetic coding, not recognizing that there are other forms of inheritance/conditioning that can explain these commonalities, but that even if these inherited patterns are deeply ingrained, they can be altered via the right practices (emotional “letting go” being the most important in my experience).
Normal dogs need to eat. Robotic dogs don't need to bite and so should be considered illegal weapons if they can?
The design limits you to sticky bait.

Pretty much any trap works if you have the right bait, so a design that limits you to peanut butter and similar may work fine or it might be unusable depending on if peanut butter will work as bait for you or not.

This trap also requires them to go up the ramp-- which they won't do unless your bait is really attractive, exacerbating the bait choices.

If there is a really severe infestation then perhaps they'll be less picky, but in a really severe infestation an plain open bucket will also catch mice.

Not a country issue but in Canada there are town names that are similar and always getting mixed up.

called Sydney in Cape Breton Nova Scotia but also a town called Sidney with an i in British Columbia. More than once items or people meant for one end up nearly 5,000km in the wrong direction, or worse in Sydney Australia (worse as in it's not in Canada...we love ya Aussies!).

Then here is the Saint John New Brunswick (NB) vs St John's Newfoundland and Labrador vs Saint Johns Quebec issue. In NB it's always Saint not St but NFLD it's always St. in Quebec French doesn't use apostrophe like the English language does for possession.

Even my own town Charlottetown has at least three others in this small region but at least we are a capital and somewhat known being the "Cradle of Confederation" (of Canada). A bit like Philadelphia's fame in US history.
No, it doesn't work like that. For example, if you had a 'Music' folder that everything was within, you grant access to the Music folder (and thereby any child folders or files).

It's about granting access to a folder and its children, rather than individual access to files.

For example, when you try to import your files, if they are located within the 'Music' folder, the OS will ask if you are OK with the app having read / write access to that folder. You click OK - it will never ask again for anything you store import or interact with under that parent.

Similar to how IDE's ask if folders should be trusted when you open / run projects.

There's a really great book by Kliph Nesteroff called The Comedians: Drunks, Thieves, Scoundrels and the History of American Comedy that dives into the broad history of comedy over the ages.

Something that really jumped out for me is that, according to Nestorhoff, comedy is very much generational. Comedians who were able to appeal to multiple generations are very rare. Don Rickles, Lucille Ball, Rodney Dangerfield, Dave Chappelle, etc. are able to connnect across those timelines.

Hi fellow developers,
If you are tired of getting fake , disposable, risky or non-existing email addresses, then I would recommend you to integrate the email verification API in your system at the point of receiving emails.

I have published my API service on RapidAPI.
This API service utilizes reputed IP addresses to give you the best verification results.
Also, it performs several operations from checking MX records to SMTP connection to check if email address really exists in real-time.
I have maintained the database with the popular disposable email service providers. Currently, I have more than 170K disposable email domains from popular disposable e-mail service providers, and the database gets updated daily with new disposable email domains as they are created every day.
This email verification API actually connects to the mail server and checks in real-time if the email exists or not.
Do check this API service out:
BounceBadger.com

I am offering this API service through the RapidAPI marketplace. I will be more than happy to give you discounts / incentives in exchange for your valuable feedback.

I am trying to improve my API service to give you accurate results.

Please let me know if you need more free credits to test it out properly or if you are just starting out, I got you covered!
There are still plenty of 'older' or more specialised software that targets windows desktop, but the vast majority of 'windows' developers are now working within .NET core and targeting web technologies as the 'front end' of choice.

So you could argue either way, but there is a clear noticeable shift away from Windows desktop apps across a lot of industries.

This is just unsourced lie.

I agree. Though I know things like classical mechanics are emergent phenomena that I believe are many many levels up from what he has been dealing with thus far (quantum scale) as well. Given computational irreducibility and how poor we are in general at predicting/estimating phenomena in complex systems (chaos), it’s likely we’re far from “simulating” most physics at this scale anytime soon.
True, they do not need to eat food with their mouth but robot dogs could have a legitimate need for a mouth, teeth, maybe even fangs. I can see a future where frail people hire or rent or lease robot dogs for protection at home. Dogs are used this way today. In the home in self defense the invader / attacker would likely struggle to have a legal case if grandma could not defend herself and instead her robot dog took a few chunks out of the attacker while simultaneously recording first-dog-view video and audio and simultaneously calls 911. I would expect that robot dog to also be able to pin down the attacker in a position that makes it easy for law enforcement to cuff them so they can get grandma medical attention quickly.

AMEE [1] could be a future robot dog, though the movie highlights the risks.

> is SRE a byproduct of a bubble economy of easy money?

I think it’s definitely one of the aspects.

Talking with some SRE friends the point that they think part of their role is important are the multitude of moving parts in the current development environment (partially related with the easy money for resume driven development and a lot of tech stack side quests) and how the bar had lowered to hire folks (for this one with hiring managers with almost infinite budget e a lot of questionable product initiatives).
Strangest I've experienced of this is one level deeper: someone I was with had the context that I’d moved to Sweden. They asked me how my French was coming along. Took me awhile to make the connection.

I wouldn’t have thought that someone who would know what languages were spoken in Switzerland would be the kind of person to confuse it with Sweden.

Been using Kubuntu nearly since it's inception and have always loved it.

For audio players I stubbornly prefer Clementine for it's lighter handed approach, although I guess I should give Elisa a shot now.

A piece about robot police dogs I stumbled upon recently:

https://undark.org/2023/09/04/robot-police-dogs/

Not as theoretical a question as it looks!
It's one of those interesting phrases that, I believe, came about from its opposite. "I could not give a shit about that," literally, "I wouldn't even pay one shit to buy that," or similar (no doubt with some mixing up with non-english words), has gradually added people who would give a shit — which only makes sense if they are giving a "shit-ton" of money for it. Showing your enthusiasm for something by handing over a turd is a strange way to show your gratitude. :)
That's not quite what I'm getting at. Hallucinations are meaningful if you consider the narrative of life to be more important than the mechanism in which it plays out.

Further to that, the act of testing or observation isn't itself without its effects.

Functional languages have a core that is well suited for parallelism, but all mainstream functional languages have various features that are unsuitable for parallel execution - particularly if you want to target limited machines like GPUs.

The Futhark programming model is standard functional combinators: map, reduce, scan, etc. You can do that in any Functional language, and it is mostly trivial to rewrite a Futhark program in Haskell or SML or OCaml. Futhark removes a lot of things (like recursive data structures) to make efficient parallel execution easier (and even possible), and adds various minor conveniences. But you don't really need to add something for functional programming to be suitable for parallelism; you just have to avoid certain common things (like linked lists or laziness).
We occasionally do that, where available. Movies can work that way too.

Honestly I'm not all that price sensitive, I just don't want to subscribe to 15 different things when I usually only want to access a couple of shows on each. And the interface fragmentation bothers me as well.

I should probably get something with an interface like Roku used to offer, with a unified search across services. It's a shame there isn't one subscription service I can access here that will do that automatically behoind the scenes. But rights are complex.
I would say that paid open source work is the exception, not the rule.

That’s what I would do, but I am not a trained exorcism priest.

Let’s say this is an actual real phenomenon for sake of the discussion. Demonic possession and successful exorcisms would underscore the reality of the faith. The exorcist has a duty to the mission that they are given—the have a job to do recording viral video may not be part of the job description. The Catholic Church may not want evidence of this supernatural moment recorded or being supernatural, perhaps it can’t be for some reason. Maybe just the disclosure of it is enough by a priest to motivate some folks who would be motivated by such a thing to join the faith.

If it’s not real, well that last sentence above serves the same purpose, doesn’t it?

And besides…would you trust any video, audio, or photographic evidence of anything in 2023? I know I wouldn’t. It would be picked apart, ridiculed, and drive more people away from the faith than drive to it.
Social Security began with their own identity provider (user/pass). They then onboarded ID.me before Login.gov was accelerated by GSA and USDS. Login.gov, once plugged into SSA, was promoted to primary identity provider (circa September 2021). At some point, user/pass and ID.me will be deprecated (user/pass signups are no longer enabled).
Yes, and they're expensive. Often they don't have access to a secret repository of top quality clients but they still work for filtering out people who are investing minimal effort into finding someone. If you spend $500 to get three matches, you're going to put in a lot more effort into setting up a date, showing up for it, and following up (provided they weren't tossing red flags everywhere) than you would if you got the same three matches on a free dating site. The same goes for the matches. If they also put down $500, they're much more invested in trying to make something of value come out of it because they've already sunk in money. And it filters out the bots, the attention seekers, the social media clout manipulators, porn site promoters, etc. that thrive on the low cost of connection.

From what I've seen, it works well for people who just needed something to get both parties to take finding a relationship seriously while it ends up being a bitterly disappointing waste of money for those who think because it costs 100x as much as an online dating site, they're going to get matches that are 100x further up the dating hierarchy.
A recent Freakonomics podcast/guest (Dr. Sapolsky) mentions that when you bite down softly on a wooden pencil, it makes eyes' crow-feet express, which artificially tricks your proprioception into thinking that you're smiling.

> There's a reason the biggest tech companies hire the best [..] for significant sums - they are worth it.

No. The amount they pay is a function of supply and demand of workers and the necessity of filling the position within the company.

> Software engineers aren't illiterate construction workers.

Construction workers have the ability to build and destroy buildings probably more easily than SWEs can build or destroy companies.

Just like a skyscraper is more than just concrete and steel, a software company is way more than just code.
It's not just that, but in 1997-98 for me living in Yugoslavia, my main online channels were still primarily usenet groups and irc servers and even some BBS-es still operating - it was for us as big deal as social networks are now. Just a few years later we all were on forums and icq/msn, and protocols like usenet and gopher became funny words new kids going online never heard of. It was a huge shift that happened world-wide, wasn't anything specific to YU. And yes, incredible amounts of historical data got lost in that transition.
