> Because law requires such a low wage that it competes with the cost of being unemployed.

Everything competes with being "unemployed" -- which is another way of saying that you do your own labor. You can pay someone to make your dinner or make it yourself, pay someone to fix your car or fix it yourself, pay someone to make your clothes or make them yourself etc.

Specialization generally wins, even when you're not making a lot of money.

> this is why people in those jobs live shorter lives.

There are multiple reasons why this is the case. The people with the ability to do skilled labor more often also have the ability to do other things that increase their longevity. People who make less money are more likely to smoke cigarettes etc. There isn't a single unified cause, it's many things that correlate with each other.

> Then why aren't they better off now than before that was done?

Because they're not allowed to build housing and provide medical care. Zoning restrictions constrain housing construction, the AMA restricts the supply of doctors and people with legitimate medical degrees from other countries can't just come here and practice etc.

Regulatory capture is a thing. But the medical regulators are captured by the AMA (i.e. incumbent doctors), not Walmart or Comcast, who have no real interest in higher medical costs. The zoning boards are captured by local homeowners.

> Wages for many many skilled labor jobs (whose capacities have proportionally increased faster than average) have decreased very significantly over recent decades when accounting for inflation. This is just common knowledge.

Your argument was that a significant proportion of these people would end up doing unskilled labor. No they wouldn't, they'd still prefer to make $60,000 rather than $30,000 even if their skillset used to pay an inflation-adjusted $70,000. And some of them will even refuse the $60,000 and find a way to change careers to one that pays more.
If you're looking to connect a DC-powered device to a standards-based power-over-Ethernet switch without making any device modifications look up "PoE splitters". They're really, really handy devices. You can get them with USB connections and barrel plugs. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of them over the years.
A UK company called spinvox blew up when it was revealed that their speech transcription tech was actually a warehouse filled with people in Pakistan. In that case the blow up was due to data protection laws in the first instance, and investor confidence in the second instance. They had, of course, told everyone that their transcription system was a giant e-brain.
The heat has to come from the input power though. If I'm pumping 5W at 12V, or 5W at 20V into the device, with it idling, presumably the output from the devices voltage regulator circuit is the same voltage, and the downstream components are consuming the same wattage (let's call it 1A at 3.3V downstream, so 3.3W), the both the 12V and the 20V input would have 1.7W of heat-loss. The article shows that as voltage goes up, power actually drops, which would imply that it is producing less heat.
I bought a house in a walkable neighborhood. (It's in a rust belt city, so it's plenty affordable.) A mortgage puts your rent payment into something you own, instead of into someone else's pocket. When you pay it off, you're not spending $thousands per month just for a place to live. (That's where I'm at now.)

Which seems likely to me to be a relatively new legal status carved out specifically for autonomous vehicles.

In a pre-AV world, my impression has been that it's been absolutely illegal to remotely operate vehicles on public roads. Maybe I'm wrong though. My impression here has been influenced by admittedly bored and unnecessary neighborhood police harassing me in my youth for purportedly illegally operating RC cars on public streets, which didn't even weigh thousands of pounds.

It might be interesting to understand how much lobbying/$$ was necessary to get the AV laws on the books as written today.
> It also used to be that saving could crash. And that saving could save a file which open could not open.

This situation has improved a lot, but there are still cases when they (Microsoft Office) still don't get it (for example with OneDrive failing to connect)

> Software is better now.

There is an arms race for more features which leads to more code and libraries which has forced developers to be more careful.
But, rewrinting the GUI, breaking existing functionality ( i had to search today how to enable the vertical ruler in MS Word, only to find out that it is enabled but Word will not display it, except if i click in this area and only lasts until i move the keyboard cursor), changing the GUI (new xsnow will not start because it ignores the command line parameters and starts a config dialogue), ignoring years of GUI design (Android- status messages obscuring the input field, transient windows with no ok or cancel which last forever, gray on gray, and so on) does not improve anything. On the contrary, today's program are more anti user than programs 5 years ago (or 10, or 15).

Just use DLSS. It looks great and the graphics settings are designed around it. I'm not sure if the earlier DLSS versions were crappy, but this latest one doesn't seem to have any weird artifacts.

One of the reasons banks have these restrictions (besides the obvious thing of making it difficult to take large sums of money out because it hurts their business) is to prevent fraud. They want to prevent the case where some criminal gets physical access to my computer, or my login credentials, and drains my account without my knowledge. So they want you to initiate a manual verification that you really do intend to move such a large sum to prevent that fraud.

If you do what I did, you usually get a temporary hold on your account and some very skeptical bank employee calling you to grill you on what you’re doing.

On one hand I get it. For every story like mine, where this is just a temporary frustrating inconvenience, there’s probably a story where grandma lost her life savings after talking to the nice man from Microsoft on the phone. But also they don’t make it clear at all what you are supposed to do as non-criminal to work around their restrictions, which is just bad for customers.
FWIW - usually when interfacing with foreign code like that you match what the foreign code's types than convert it afterwards. Then add an assert [sizeof(t1) >= sizeof(int)] or better a static_assert.

The intent isn't to make your code bullet-proof. It's to move towards a subset of the language with well-defined semantics.

Any safety critical coding standard work I've done always had a waiver process for both MISRA and mccabe-like complexity requirements - the intent is there's always some point where there is diminish returns for compliance.

This is low enough already that there isn’t a huge cost benefit to optimizing much further, especially given how useful it is to have humans review things in certain situations.”

That's a pretty worrying statement: CEO is of the opinion that decreasing it isn't possible and is trying to put a positive spin on it. Driving (pun not intended) remote assistance down should be their primary goal, to drive down OPEX and facilitate market expansion.

The president would almost certainly not want to take responsibility for the resulting economic implosion, and would order the executive to ignore the court ruling. Then it comes down to a mix of loyalties and individuals' beliefs around what would cause the least damage.

It's far more likely that a ruling like that would be the end of the court's power.

And the converse - if you own the political process then why aren't you wealthy? In an ideal system the answer would be "because 1/Nth of the power isn't worth much", but there in practice are always power bottlenecks that give disproportionate sway.

Even assuming a given ruling actor is principled and incorruptible, an archetypal "good king", there would be many other aspirants who want to replace them by means fair or foul. Large piles of money just lying around have always been an attractive nuisance for thieves.

Honestly glad to err here. Kudos to Chris Davis, Sophie Herold and other contributors.

> Why do you keep making comments on things you are uninformed on?

I'm informed well enough on the facts that a) Red Hat is the top contributor to GNOME; b) development of core GNOME features is going too little, too late, while every release is boasting about not-so-important stuff getting done. So I'm being vocal about that, because why not?

> Exactly, distros need to kept up-to-date, and by updating GNOME, you get new features for free. Downstream, Fedora grabs these updates.

If only two thirds of GNOME weren't contributed by full-time Red Hat employees, sure.

I think you're seeing it wrong. When CEOs no longer need scientists and engineers, when they can speak their will into existence directly, they will immediately destroy themselves. This rating system, had the CEO gotten it's say, would not have made Bridgewater thrive. That stupid ideas are often impossible to accomplish is a huge barrier to stupid leadership screwing themselves sideways.

Anyways, thats the optimistic take :P
You're right, renting would have to remain economically viable throughout my life and retirement in order for me to be okay sticking with it.

I simply cannot upvote this enough.

I also believe this is a hard problem to solve. The partitioning of an organization's resources into teams is inherently messy and inefficient. One has to consider internal politics, egos of middle managers, or preferences of individuals when staffing teams within an organization. The end result is often far from what's the best for the organization overall.

TL;DR:

The certificate is associated with a private key which can decrypt the traffic for a session established using the cert. The issue is that, given a bogus certificate from a trusted authority, someone can impersonate any site they want, then proxy the traffic to the real site and spy on your session.

Longer explanation:

If an organization is able to obtain a certificate that the browser trusts, which matches the domain name you are visiting, then they can easily terminate the TLS at the organization's server, then make a new request to the site, where the encrypted session is between the site and the organization's proxy server. They get an effective man-in-the-middle attack and your browser pretends like everything is secure because there is a trusted certificate matching the domain name you visited. The browser doesn't throw up any red flags because it doesn't differentiate between certificates, only certificate authorities.

So if a 3rd party can acquire an arbitrary certificate for some domain, and the 3rd party has the private key associated with that cert, and the same 3rd party can intercept the traffic between you and the domain in question, then they can get your traffic in the clear and there are no obvious signs that they did it.

Given the current state of TLS and the way browsers deal with certs, the only way for a user to discover that something is amiss is to investigate the details of the cert. Then they might notice that it was issued by a suspicious certificate authority. Unfortunately, the proposed EU law is attempting to prohibit browser vendors from withholding trust (or otherwise scrutinizing) the state-controlled (or state-influenced) certificate authorities, with the intention of preventing browsers from interfering with government's ability to issue illegitimate/insecure (but you must trust them, or else!) certificates.
Wow, he quit his job? He was still working at Sesame Street last time I looked so I missed that change. I had thought it was still just a (pretty successful) side project.
In theory, you know whom you are talking to. In practice though, every company and authoritarian government wants to sniff, be it through https proxies or enterprise-wide certificates.
I'm on a 3080 and it ran fine for me. Did you turn off ray-traced direct/indirect lighting? Those really require a 40 series, even at low quality levels. Is your native resolution 4K? At 4K I needed to turn on DLSS, but I was also able to set most of the quality knobs (other than RT) to medium or high, not low. I wonder if maybe you're running into some sort of driver problem.
We can given them tools, just like we use tools. And I'm sure we can also find ways of "wiring" tools more directly into the models.

I'm not convinced it's better than humans in general at a "math without math approach" yet, but it's certainly better than a lot of people at it. They also do make really trivial mistakes sometimes.

That's...not...how threads or async work...?

> Blocking I/O executed on another thread, with a callback to execute when done, becomes async I/O (from the user's PoV).

That's not what we're talking about when we discuss languages with async I/O, though. That's just bog-standard synchronous I/O with multithreading.

> The read/write operations are still potentially blocking, so for efficiency you need multiple threads.

That doesn't actually follow. The entire point of language-level async I/O is to be able to continue doing other work while waiting for the kernel to finish an I/O operation, without spawning a new OS thread just for this purpose.
Ah sorry, I was trying to say two things at once referring to two different contexts. In both cases the only 'temporary copying' takes place.

- In the context of specifically training an AI-model under EU law: -

Article 5(1) of the Directive 2001/29/EC [1] is argued to apply. Of course, if sued, AI companies still need to show that their use is otherwise lawful (which should be fairly easy, since they actually do not retain anything remotely resembling a copy at all)

- In the context of specifically training an AI-model under US law: -

The purpose of the copy can be argued to be non-exploitative, incidental, for the purpose of enabling technology, and temporary.

By contrast: Google Books even argued that permanently retaining entire copies of books wholesale was fair use [2], provided they didn't provide copies of those books to 3rd parties.

OpenAI argues that there's no way they're doing anything even remotely close to that. [3]

Exactly. It reduced C to, almost, BASIC. Reduces available design patterns. Reduces available language features.

HOWEVER: having a MISRA-C LINT which is required to run on all code that makes it into an automobile is, ultimately, a good thing. Yes, the homogenization is ugly, but it does mean that classes of errors just can't occur.

The concept is great. There is also MISRA C++ of which I know almost nothing; is that any better?

Back in my Java days a long time ago, I too preferred just writing prepared statements and then copying the data to my POJOs. Until I thought about it and decided to use reflection to do the heavy lifting after modifying the code every sprint to deal with new requirements. Then I added the ability for my POJOs to be annotated so I could define the table and columns it belonged to. It didn't hit me until near the end that I had reinvented Hibernate without all of the rest of its features.
