While this may make Flathub unsuitable for you, there are other Flatpak repos.

Fedora and PureOS each offer their own Flatpak repos, which presumably follow those distros' security policies, so they may be more useful than Flathub for some people.

My guess would be that nobody seriously considers Windows servers for enterprise storage. I've worked for several storage companies and Windows support in that world is something that people usually want to overlook, or to provide a bare minimum of. I.e. think about companies like Dell EMC (their storage division) or Infinidat etc... it's mostly Linux with rarely some BSD in the mix.

Non-atomic stuff is simpler on the implementation. Even if the behavior is worse for the user, it's easier to write, and you have fewer requirements to satisfy. So, not having a real pressure from the customers, it's just easier not to do this.

For my wife, social interaction is like air, she needs it to be healthy. For me, it's like water; I can enjoy it but I get tired after being in water for too long. It's like anything, the more you do it the better shape you are in. The less you do it, the less shape you are in.

Weird flex but ok. In any area big enough to have a Starbucks in the US you'll find at least one local cafe that has better coffee. You'll also find at least one with much worse coffee that thinks they're better.

As you say, people go to Starbucks and McDonalds for familiar known quality and you should be happy for it. That way the tourists and immigrants stay out of your local cafe.

Edit: to be clear I'm not defending supranational billion dollar corporations here.
This is the one thing that makes me comfortable about continuing to use Google Voice for voice-mail and as a spare phone number for less important services. Otherwise, I'd expect Google to discontinue this service and tell me to fuck off by now.
I don’t have any problem.

My comment was not disrespectful, you may have not liked it but that’s a very different thing. I didn’t call anyone an ass; you did. You are the one who cannot maintain a conversation without calling names.

> This isn’t the place for you

Unfortunately you don’t get to decide that.
That's kind of missing my point. I obviously know that coal is not renewable.

The point was: When you burn wood today the atmosphere isn't going to be like "oh, but that CO2 was absorbed out of the atmosphere during the last 100 years, so that CO2 shouldn't contribute to global warming".

As long as we haven't solved climate change any CO2 released into the atmosphere should be avoided. It's okay to burn wood that would have rotted anyway.

But if you cut down a healthy forest, burn it and say "but it will be reabsorbed when the forst grows back, it's a closed loop" that's technically correct, but it still contributes to global warming because we now have additional CO2 in the atmosphere. Simply because it takes time for a forest to grow.

The closed loop argument is only really valid long term and when we've already solved climate change.

Yes, Chrome user here. I'm sure I'm not the only one, but who wants to raise their hand when surrounded by a mob out for blood? It's just a web browser, I don't think the aggressive and violent language is necessary. What, exactly, do I "fucking deserve"?
As respectfully as I can say this -- and I realize I am close to crossing a line here and I want to be very, very careful not to cross it -- but I don't get how anyone is having a problem understanding: when I offhandedly mentioned to WalterBright that I disagree with his assessment of HN's slant, that was NOT in any way an invitation to have a protracted debate where everyone complains about what they personally think HN's slant is (Democrat or Republican), and I do not understand how or why anyone would think it was a good idea to try and have that debate anyway in response.

This is not an appropriate thread for people to be angry about whether or not they have deluded themselves into thinking that HN is somehow Communist (of all things); and it is ridiculous that at this point 3 different people have looked at a completely normal conversation about corporations building AI girlfriends and have thought, "yes, this is definitely the best place for me to air my political grievances about the government."

For a website that supposedly is filled to the brim with far-Left caricatures, there sure are a lot of Conservatives randomly hanging around that feel comfortable derailing conversations to complain. Respectfully, it is possible that HN is reacting with hostility not to Conservatives as much as to off-topic bullcrap behavior like this. But there are numerous places where you can go be angry about whether or not you think that HN has too many Democrats on it. The rest of us were trying to have a conversation about corporations creating and selling AI girlfriends.

If I click on that Techno-Optimism Manifesto and it is what I think it is and is not a government-sponsored pornographic chat transcript from an AI girfriend, then you should not have commented it. I don't care how much you have deluded yourself into thinking that criticism of a sloppily written self-aggrandizing manifesto is actually Communism, it has nothing to do with the article link.

Ditch your car.

Ok, how?

In Americas case you might aswell shout yourself. As you cannot live without a car.

Saying Ditch your car is as good solution as 'Just stop breathing in pollution'.
You can burn wood cleanly and very efficiently, so why not just ban inefficient stoves rather than wood burning in general? A TLUD isn't going to be any worse for your health than a gas-burning stove or furnace.
You're getting really hung up on a single word, while ignoring the rest of what the other commenter said, but I'm the one being selective...
I wonder if it's the mind having lifelong expectations of social interactions going bad (why did it learn that?), and dismissing the plenty of events where "See, it didn't blow up in your face!".

I also wonder if the programming could be changed by some sort of conscious learning...
Nonsense. Asking for donations as a millionaire (which is what these people are) is a bit awkward.

This only makes sense if you ignore the world outside the Bay area and assume it's a talentless wasteland. Bay area salaries are vastly inflated in terms of value for money.

There is lots of talent elsewhere of course. I live in Europe. Lots of smart people here. I think I personally know quite a few people that could do at least as good a job as Signal has at building a messenger app + platform. No offense, but this isn't exactly rocket science.

And of course the elephant in the room here is that money is running out because this organization has a cost problem. Inflated salaries, insane cost for things that they should arguably get rid off (like the SMS bills), etc. That's a leadership problem. They aren't even getting value for money despite those salaries.
Serious question: is it not now?

I have worked hard to escape closed source, commercial software, but I still purchase several box products (FamilyHistorian and SuperMemo come to mind immediately) from small companies. I acknowledge e.g., Microsoft or Adobe can make a killing by making their products subscription-based, but is that the way small companies (who can accept the lack of continuous income and charge a significant portion of full price for major upgrades) have to go?

Looks like you offended some Americans' sensibilities, but it's pretty much on point outside the US. We already have a coffee culture, we don't need union-busting megacorps giving us worse for higher prices and lower worker wages, thanks.
Why don't you re-read what I wrote? I don't think it was a particularly difficult question to understand
You know that's not how central planning worked, right? You were told to live in a specific place, with a few (narrow) options on where to work at (unless you were (un)specialised, then there was sometimes zero choice), for meagre but sufficient compensation. You could have a place to live, food to eat. The place to live might be a room in an apartment shared with other families, the food to eat might be bread with bread, and there were little things you could buy outside of necessities, but you were compensated and it was near certain you would have a roof over your head, and baring drastic mismanagement/crisis, enough food.

If that's better than some having more money that they could possibly use, many having access to amazing amenities and luxuries, but a lot struggling to eat enough quality food and not being able to have a roof over their head is IMO a philosophical question. Do you prefer everyone (of course with some minor exceptions for higher ups) to be equally "not great, but not terrible" or do you prefer some to have amazing lives, but others to suffer?

Again, there's no apparent connection between logic and mathematical truths and the universe. Moreover, logic and mathematical truths are causally inert: they cannot be a cause to a physical effect.

Yet it appears like all physical effects are following such laws and rules. I.e, there appears to be something that breathes fire into our equations.

I too have lived different places and also have traveled a bit, I don't think travelling credentials are needed to identify someone who is living by stereotypes though.

If you want I can send you many pictures of my travels in France so we compare the number of abandoned tractors, completely trashed banlieues and so on. Or I can send you pictures of how Dutch people every week have a day where they dump trash in the sidewalk, the same fridges and old moldy furniture that you speak of, all around the city, or all the bicycles and trash in canals. Or about all the human shit in Paris homeless encanpments that are worse than dog poop in the street of Lisbon, etc.

Obviously I'm a bit defensive, and of course every country has people who don't care, and maybe there's even more in portugal than other places, which I'm glad to accept if you have any data, but you didn't present any data, just your stereotypes based on anecdata.
The reason I don’t use signal much is this link to a phone number.

Both because sometimes I don’t have a phone number. And I don’t want participants to know my phone number.

I don’t get why they have this requirement as it’s not like having a phone number means anything significant. For me, I think privacy includes my ability to not reveal my identity to the network.
The rate at which the Transformer architecture can learn and adapt to new information is astounding - so it makes absolutely no sense to me that they can't manage to throw 200 data annotators at their model and make it best-in-class.

They did sink capital into Anthropic recently so perhaps that shuffled things up internally / changed some roadmaps?

If that's the case - Anthropic's models are extremely capable and can be easily launched to the top of the leaderboards if they go for a less belligerent training approach.
Personally, I have no experience with it—but I don't doubt that it exists for some people.

What I object to is people insisting that the "status thing" some people have going on with it is Apple's responsibility to fix by removing useful indicators of who's using what messaging services, or that Apple is deliberately and maliciously making people not using iMessage somehow look worse.

(On the other hand, I think there's a perfectly legitimate argument that Apple could and should open iMessage, and is choosing not to do so for relatively selfish reasons. I don't have a strong opinion on that one either way.)

I wonder if this is just due to something internal at Google or if there has been some more global change that has made them uninterested in continuing this?

Normally I'd guess the former given Google's legendary propensity for getting rid of services, but a couple months ago Amazon did something similar [1] which makes me wonder if the two are connected somehow:

> Effective September 4, 2023, Amazon is no longer selling print and Kindle, magazine and newspaper subscriptions.

...

> Will I receive the remaining issues for my current Kindle subscription(s)?

> No, you will no longer receive issues of your Kindle subscription(s) after September 4, 2023. We will issue you a pro-rated refund for any undelivered issues within 3-5 business days. Visit the Your Memberships and Subscriptions page for more information.

> Will I receive the remaining issues for my current Print subscription(s)?

> Yes, you will receive all issues of your print subscription through the expiration date. Please visit Your Memberships and Subscriptions page to determine when your Print subscription expires.

Kindle issues you have already received remain available on your account for download.

The takeaway is that both happen. Sometimes established science is right, and sometimes it's not. I don't mean to dismiss iterative discovery, but paradigm shifts have always required a leap of imagination.

I guess you'll have to imagine (or not, your choice) what it was like to be Newton before the wild success of his works. There was a time where his ideas were not established science, and he didn't know how they would be received.

https://www.sciography.com/Isaac-Newton.htm

> Newton said he was reluctant to publish his calculus at the time for fear of being mocked.

You seem to have a pretty established idea of what is right, and I think I've gotten my idea across at this point, so you can take or leave it. Cheers.

But if I wanted MS, we would have started on MS instead of Google Suite. Yeah, it's out there, but I agree with you, not a trustworthy option.

There are a lot of restrictions on what a pointer-type template parameter can point to. In particular it needs to have linkage (which for example string literals do not have). Whether the results of constexpr functions must, can or can't have linkage is beyond my paygrade, but I suspect this is an MSVC extension.

edit: linkage appears to propagate through constexpr. So it depends on how ultimately the original string is generated. I don't know what guarantee the standard gives (cppreference doesn't mention anything and I can't be bothered to look at the standard).
It must really be frustrating to be a real Nigerian Prince who needs to launder a lot of money.
> Either I do something for the love of it, or I am going for a paying job. Sometimes people are lucky and these two are the same, but that is very much the exception.

Why should that be the exception? Why shouldn't people's passions, especially when they are widely useful to others, not be encouraged and turned into paying jobs? Everyone wins. The passionate can keep doing what they're passionate about without having to split their attention to a job to pay the bills, and in exchange everyone else gets better quality output.
Correct. They've learned the behavior that attacking someone's ego, sense of fairness, or duty pays off and costs little. Almost everyone in customer service or non-profit space has to deal with these leeches.

Easy to defeat, fatal to ignore.
I use Safari and Edge. I haven't noticed anything that doesn't work on those.
Agreed. Just looking at the Steam Deck and how well flatpak works as a distro independent way to install apps is great.

Flatpak supports mutliple remotes (repos), everything is open source and apps are partially sandboxed.

MV3 is basically MV2 with one tectonic change: replacing persistent background pages with ephemeral service workers. So a large part of this effort actually DID go into MV2.

There's a better question: what if instead of investing huge amount of times into DNR they put it somewhere else? For instance, into providing better tools for extensions to persist their state so that we didn't have to rewrite the extensions from scratch to make them work with the new service workers model? I think it would've been much much much better. Unfortunately, that's how hindsight works.

CO2 doesn’t disappear from the atmosphere the moment you plant trees. In fact, burning wood is worse than burning coal here, because, for the same amount of energy provided, burning wood is going to emit more CO2 than burning coal.

In the UK, planning started on Hinkley Point in 2010. It was supposed to run at 3 TW by 2020, costing £24 per MWh. It's now 13 years into a process that is projected to complete in another 5 years, eventually producing energy for £90 per MWh.

In roughly the same period of time 30 TW of wind capacity have been installed. Even if you discount windfarm capacity at an aggressive 4:1, wind has already succeeded in producing 2.5 times what nuclear said it would be able to and failed at.

Onshore wind is being delivered at a per MWh cost below that of the new nuke, if it ever runs. The offshore cost is much lower still.
Thank you for providing the link, I'll take a look.

Like Elastic, New Relic is a company held back by incompetent management. I'll let you research about its bigoted and egotistical founder & ex-CEO, and share my anecdotal experience of working under some of his loyalists.

I had the unfortunate experience or working under an ex-NR VP and ex-NR EM at another company they bombed. High ego managers who don't listen to feedback nor admit when they mess up. Bad hires were not dealt with, killing productivity. Bad productivity was addressed by more spreadsheets and top-down directives. Bad morale was not discussed, and addressed by more spreadsheets. Feedback was not welcome, they knew better.

If you are interviewing with a company and find ex-NR management in the org chart, take that as a red flag.
If you listen to the noises coming from DC the US is in principle competing with China everywhere, as the official strategy is "primacy" over China.

This is why everyone should switch to AGPL3.

You can use MIT/BSD/Apache/GPL3 dependencies without issue; never need to worry about derivative works or anything like that, just set it and forget it, and because corporations avoid you like the plague you can code away without a care in the world for backwards compatibility.

The BSD/MIT license is free as in free tech support, always has been.
