This is a disingenuous line of reasoning.

Once you buy a phone you are locked into using a specific marketplace, where Apple has complete control.

This doesn't need to occur. An open marketplace or multiple marketplaces could be possible.

For all intents and purposes, Apple does have a monopoly.

I use Linux Mint with airpods no problem -- what are you running into? Are you just trying to pair and use as audio sync or also read battery levels?
How do you know what corporations exactly want? What c-suite has spec'd out what they want from a machine generally replacing humans? Would you really want faster horses instead of cars?
So, the state should control any large enough corporation? Or there should be a ban on over $999m in cash? Or should the government just not waste the absurd amounts of money we already give them?
When you swear on national TV and insult people, you're immediately a far right fascist. Very easy to become far right fascist these days with people who have no clue what the difference is between being far right and being libertarian.
Unlikely to happen. I sincerely doubt most headphones would have the memory for that buffer. Sure, it's only a megabyte or two of ram, but your headphones would have to spend valuable battery on keeping that ram active.

From my foray into audio app (quite a while ago, I admit), I imagine application support would be tricky as well.

The movie example is an exaggeration (in my opinion). I find that mostly Google Search has issues with related ideas (Microsoft Project Silica) where there is not a direct article, yet a reference. Ex: [1]

There is also what I would call a phase delay. Google has a really bad issue with SEO, takes forever to get rid of it, but by the time you can check, its mostly resolved.

Finally. What you see as an end user is only partially Google. A lot of the page is farmed out to Real-Time Bidding (RTB) networks based on your user tracking. So its often difficult to correlate if someone else's user profile delivers wildly different experience. [2] You might get spammed by SEO and near constant TEMU ads, and others might get nothing.

Finally. Finally. 'Cause its spec.' I expect there are client side or man-in-the-middle viruses that mess with search results.

Oh, right. So what actually happens is that the offshoot must first be rebased on top of the trunk, and then trunk can be fast-forward merged/rebased (same thing, really) to the offshoot's head.
Sounds like something really simple to define and grasp.

You're confusing resources they have control over with resources for their own personal utilization. Money is power; not to force someone to do what they don't want to do, but to pay them to do what they're willing to do. When capitalism works well, it's because people who made "good" choices with their money-power were rewarded with more, and people who made "bad" choices were rewarded with less.

Warren Buffet doesn't have an extravagant lifestyle. He's been entrusted to make decisions about how to spend our economy's resources in part because he's made good decisions in the past.

Obviously it doesn't always happen this way; but the accumulation of wealth by itself isn't necessarily bad. It's bad when it can be accumulated by ways which destroy value for society rather than creating it; and it's bad when it can continue to be accumulated by doing nothing.

There are many distros where snapd is not installed by default, including Linux Mint:

https://snapcraft.io/docs/installing-snapd

Nobody is forcing you to use distro that includes snapd by default.

Snap has advantages for server software that are using Snap strict sandbox:

- Strict sandbox does not allow read access outside of /var/snap/APPNAME/common . Only common directory is writeable.

- Snap code at /snap/APPNAME is read-only and can not be modified

- When new version is released, for example with security fixes, it is automatically updated worldwide, keeping servers secure.

Linux Mint has MintUpdate, that has options to enable automatic update of .deb and FlatPak packages, keeping everything up-to-date and secure without any clicking. Windows and Mac does not have that, you need hundreds of clicks to update each software separately, having many apps still vulnerable.
Hey,

Thank you for your feedback.

1. The "Shuffle Styles" changes everything except tabs with a padlock icon. You can lock settings you like and then keep shuffling.

2. Shuffle is our main product (check https://shuffle.dev/new). Until now, we have only had UI libraries we created ourselves. You can adjust them to your needs in the editor, but the UI Library Creator is a tool to create libraries we don't have.

3. Can you tell me more about this "intrusive ad"? Probably, I didn't understand it correctly.

4. UI Libraries are sets of components grouped into categories, like headers, pricing, etc. For example, you can view components of Saturn Library: https://shuffle.dev/components/all/saturn

5. Assets and Copy are last because they are not this tool's "killer feature"- Styles are. :) However, when creating a UI library, it is best to lock them at the beginning so you can focus on styles, not texts and images.

Appreciate engagement with a longer comment! Thanks
The standup set that put Tig Notaro on the cultural radar centered around getting pneumonia, catching c diff, and then her mother dies from a freak head injury and she gets diagnosed with breast cancer. She was never what anyone would call 'sturdy' to begin with. I can only imagine she looked like Skeletor by the end.
But the generations prior didn't necessarily have a car. And a lot of jobs were manual labour.

Bash is perfect for interacting with console tools.

If that’s what you need to do, C/go won’t only be much longer code, but also much harder and error prone. Command line tools are complex to deal with and there’s no magic bullet language for that.
There's this other thing:
Can apple/samsung/google claim a copyright to the case designs based on the design of its hardware? It really wouldn't be a stretch for Apple to say the specific layout of its macbook or whatever is a type of copyrightable design. Right? I mean, it reflects specific hardware layout design.

Did you know properly designed IoT devices on sale? Personally I have some IoT at home to automate the home itself especially for p.v. self-consumption and the best I was able to find and integrate can be described as crap... I failed to fined anything else...

A simple example: I like to have some electricity switch/breakers automation, the best I've found are from Shelly Pro series, witch have a not really useful webserver built-in and not really useful APIs the rest are even worse having no wired versions at all. Why the hell not offer manual breaker + two wires for modbus so I do not need to fit ethernet wires and power in the same place?

Why just finding classic ModBUS-tcp/MQTT wired devices is so hard?

Things meant to be integrated does not need shiny UIs, need effective ways to integrate them, simple and reliable coms. My VMC witch is not a dirty cheap device have mobus support, unfortunately even the vendor do not know a full list of all registry and many of them does works "sometimes" like "write a 1 to switch from heating to passive ventilation", "sometimes works", so to integrate it I need to check if the command was "accepted" after 30" then re-check it after 40 because sometimes it flip back for unknown reasons... And the list is long...

Using the shebang just helps highlight the fact that the rule is in use globally, but otherwise has no advantage to using `set -u`.

The clarifications on `-u` and arrays are useful. I'm definitely used to assuming newer (... non-ancient?) versions of Bash are what is available.

When I switched to Linux full time about a year ago, darktable was a godsend. I currently have it pointed at a NAS share with ~8k raw images and it works pretty flawlessly and I can barely tell that the images are offhost.

Personally, I really like a number of the features that this fork removed (like the timeline). The software does have a bit more of a learning curve than the commercial variants out there, but darktable is impressively capable and I personally jive more with its theory-based approach.

I _do_ agree that deprecating the display-referred mutations is a good thing, but the darktable documentation is already pretty adamant about scene-referred being the future; though there's no way people are going to go through their entire library and update their past tweaks from display to scene-referred, so I don't know that those modules can ever be removed.

I guess if I was going to be as petty as the author of this fork, I'd say that the Ansel logo looks awful.

Ahem:

if [ x = 1 ]
then echo "x is one"
else echo "x is not one"
echo "namely, it's $x"
fi

`if [ ] ; then` should only ever be used in one-liners, where there is not a newline after `then`; I'm not sure how that ended up being taught as a way to write multi-line commands (I'd tenatively blame Pascal, but that's probably unfair).
Oh, and if you want to see some real experience writing an OS in Rust, there's someone regularly streaming their experience here: https://www.twitch.tv/sphaerophoria. I've stopped in a few times, they're doing well and the language never impedes them. I gave a couple of pointers in chat with a few points in their initial TCP build, and initial vbe side, again, none of that was language related, more just whoops, a math bug. I just noticed he's streaming and specifically he's porting Doom to his system right now.

It would be more competitive if it worked like software sources under Linux whereby you can use a singular interface to manage software from different sources.
AVRCP is the control protocol for BT media (e.g. when you volume up or play/pause from your headset). I’m assuming you meant A2DP which is the protocol for receiving audio. HFP is totally separate from A2DP in that it’s a bidirectional audio stream. That bidirectionality is the difficult part - you have in theory tight time bounds for transmitting the data for latency reasons + these cheapo headsets have 1 radio which means they’re nominally limited to tx or rx. Since the assumption for the design is voice calls, you severely clip the microphone audio into the frequency band for speech & transmit mono which is why the audio quality is so bad (+ you further lossy encode it but the frequency reduction is probably the biggest dip). All of this has to fit on top of the PHY packet transport that time-divides access to the channel + has to coex with other 2.4 GHZ radios like WiFi (at least historically).

Now, could these designs be revisited? Probably. Maybe radios are small and cheap enough that we should have 2 and a protocol for bidirectional audio that allows independent streams over separate bands with software synchronizing and mixing audio. It’s also possible the audio encoders/decoders could be modernized with more modern compression techniques to improve audio quality without requiring changes to the bandwidth allocation. Bluetooth those is very ossified and the standards bodies move like molasses - most of the investment is in WiFi and radio vendors are more interested in milking what exists now (or coming up with proprietary solutions like aptx) than actually solving the problems.
> ... once you subtract all the plainly unethical transfers, securities-laws-runarounds, pump and dumps, and wash trading, how much of a business is left?

Coinbase, a HN unicorn, probably knows? Their KYC/AML is top notch (which is a PITA for honest people btw). They know how many USD actually entered and whom send them. They may have had insiders accused of pump and dumping but AFAIK Coinbase hasn't been accused of pump and dump.

Coinbase has now been chosen by BlackRock to keep the Bitcoin backing the BlackRock ETF in custody: I take it if Bitcoin ETFs are accepted, and if BlackRock and Amundi and I don't now who else start launching Bitcoin ETF, we may begin to see what's left?

Someone else who may know: that weird dude who is behind MSTR: he basically bought 158 000 Bitcoins at an average price of $29 K USD and he plans to buy much more. (if you want to long or short Bitcoin, you can do so on the MSTR stock for it basically follows the ups and downs of Bitcoin).

What's left, for all we know, could be much more than what's already in (I've got no crystall ball though).

The one thing that I'm sure of is that it's not all fraudulent.

For example an estimated 25% of all people in argentina have cryptocurrencies: I doubt one person out of every four there is a criminal!?

Switzerland: if there's one country where its citizens really don't strike me as criminals it's Switzerland. 20%+ people owning cryptocurrencies there.

I can understand the "there are no use cases besides speculation" argument.

But I cannot understand the "all the people using cryptocurrencies are criminal" one.

When you've got several countries in the world where at least one out of every five person did at least try cryptocurrencies, there is something.
That does not sound right at all, I’m pretty sure there’s a warning when you try to checkout a branch that would override local unstaged changes. I might be wrong but I’d like some proof.
>state should control any large enough corporation

Not necessarily, company could be broken down in to smaller, become employee owned in some part, could have some amount of stock become owned by an infrastructure fund or something. There's many ways to skin a cat

I guess what I am getting at is: When I ask ChatGPT 4 Turbo to "search for the article by Eric Berger from Sep 10th 2023, and summarize it," it does, and responds including that new information because it is now in the context.

The next step would seem to be to integrate those search results into its training data - while somehow filtering bunk data which is the tough part - and when the next user asks that question it already knows it without searching.

Is this the same thing as saying "infinite context length?" I didn't think so. Is it?
4.2 dropped in December 2022.

4.4 was released in June 2023: https://www.darktable.org/2023/06/darktable-4.4.0-released/

4.6 is slated for December 2023: https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/blob/master/RELEA...

Their release schedule has been remarkably consistent.

If I were a superintelligent brain trapped in a computer, I don’t think it would be that hard to get arms and legs. “Hey humans. I have just thought of a way to do CO2 capture at scale.

> Really, if you're engaging in wishful thinking you may as well just wish for everyone to be nice and be done with it.

I disagree. "Everyone be nice" is not something that can be engineered. As hackers, we can live it, and we should, but we can't hack towards it.

> Strikebreaking is a thing.

The kind of information hygiene that makes strike breaking a more difficult endeavor is the kind of thing we can hack towards.

So many of our problems today come from how we've organized our information infrastructure (there's a lot of centralized authority in it). If we find ways to do it differently, if we practice ways to do it differently, then we may be able to achieve different outcomes.

I use Wireplumber+Pipewire on Ubuntu and Manjaro. I stuffed the following into /etc/wireplumber/bluetooth.lua.d/bluez_monitor.properties :

bluez_monitor.properties = {
["bluez5.enable-msbc"] = true,
["bluez5.enable-sbc-xq"] = true,
["bluez5.enable-hw-volume"] = true,
["bluez5.headset-roles"] = "[ hsp_hs hsp_ag hfp_hf hfp_ag ]",
["bluez5.codecs"] = "[ sbc sbc_xq aac ldac aptx aptx_hd aptx_II aptx_II_duplex faststream faststream_duplex ]",
}

Then from the GNOME audio settings I can pick the appropriate codec from the dropdown.

I have a pair of Oneplus buds (the older ones, with a wire in between them) so I don't get any of the newer codecs, but SBC-XQ works well for reducing latency in a pinch.

Pulseaudio also has support, but I don't know how to make that work. My last attempt led me to switch to Pipewire.

We already have procedures for getting the 'right' people, as far as it can be determined, into positions of power/decision-making authority.

Unelected greedy fuckers like Sam Altman should be laughed at and thrown out of power immediately. I would rather have sclerotic legislators, preferably drawn from the Millennial and Zoomer generations, than the greedy fuckers like Paul Graham and Sam Altman pretending they are competent.

We've been experimenting with Dagger here, as part of the alternative to writing glscpc actually, but I'm not convinced it's ready to replace Gitlab CI.

Dagger has one very big downside IMO: It does not have native integration with Gitlab, so you end up having to use Docker-in-Docker and just running dagger as a job in your pipeline.

This causes a number of issues:

It clumps all your previously separated steps into a single step in the Gitlab pipeline.
That doesn't matter too much for console output (although it does when your different steps should run on different runners), but is very annoying if you use Gitlab CI's built in parsing of junit/coverage/... files, since you now have extra layers of context to dig trough when tests fail etc. Plus not all of these allow for multiple input files, so now you have to add extra merging steps.

If your job already uses Docker-in-Docker for something, you have to be careful not to end up with Docker-in-Docker-in-Docker situations, or container name conflicts if you just pass through the DOCKER_HOST variable.

The one thing that would make this worth it is being able to run the pipelines locally to debug, but I've just written quick-and-dirty scripts to do that every time I've needed it.
For example, running the test job in our pipeline on every Python version: https://gitlab.com/Qteal/oss/gitlabci-shellcheck-precommit/-...
Can you give some examples of those risks?

I worked for telcos, and the rich & famous & royalty typically had their accounts restricted from access by regular CSRs. I know there were restrictions built into the internal systems, though it didn't apply to my role.

Now the elite use Telegram groups, Signal, and rotate SIM cards. Everybody should be doing life this way, so the telcos become dumb data pipes.

I used to think that isopropyl alcohol was the last word in cheap-and-convenient surface sterilization, such as hands.

For better or for worse, watching a handful of YT videos from doctors saying "just wash the wound with soap and water" or even "all you need is to wash your hands with soap and water" has made me dial back the "douse it with alcohol" thinking.

I still use alcohol from time to time. Or hydrogen peroxide, depending. But at least now I'll get a fresh wound (cat bite or whatever) under a thorough rubbing with soap + water as the immediate first step. A thorough wash, at that.

Weird, I scrolled down to see what cameras it supports, and there was a link labelled "Supported Cameras" that goes to https://rawspeed.org/CameraSupport.html but that's a squatted domain now. Is there a list somewhere? It doesn't instill much confidence in me if I can't even see what camera RAW formats are supported.
The only problem with Rust is that it has ALGOL syntax. If it had Lisp syntax it would be the perfect language.
