Maybe. From what I've seen niche channels tend to have a Patreon or similar, so neither monetization model exists in a vacuum. It's true those niche channels exist thanks to YouTube, but if they were forced to rely uniquely on ads I don't think they would be able to survive without succumbing to trend-chasing, drama and formulaic routine videos, which is what big channels seem to do for the most part.
I miss the short "how it's made" videos that used to be in every single Apple production introduction (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQnr-kfuVdQ).

There was a blog called "Atomic Delights" that would explain the manufacturing processes featured in the videos. Found it super interesting, especially considering the challenge of shipping products at Apple level volumes.

A MBP with the natural titanium finish as seen in the iPhone 15 Pro would be fantastic.
Honestly, it just works. I can do a docker image that runs on aarch64, amd64, and s390x. For the SpringBoot apps - the hardware is rock solid and far more important, cheaper and under provisioned than the other 'standard' compute for those who have piles of legacy systems. OpenShift on zSeries is not a lot different than Intel based boxes.
Yeah, I think the "dead doner" ethics rule is in place for a very good reason. Dr. Moazami and the hospital get paid for every transplant they do, their conflict financial is clear.

Ensuring hospitals are not prematurely ending donors lives is essential to maintaining a large donor pool. If patients have an inclination their life will cut short so they can be harvested they won't sign up.
You don't need to use its ecosystem at all to use it as a replacement for sh
AFAICT snaps and flat packs are a way to push package management upstream. That might not have been bad if there weren't more than one such thing to support.
Nobody except SpaceX has developed reusable rocket stages, including other US-based aerospace companies. And it is very unclear how much SpaceX really saves in launch costs.
Exactly what I did. I bought a sub $200 40" TV that probably have the worst embedded OS I've ever seen. But leave it disconnected from the network and put a Chromecast or whatever, then you have a decent TV for cheap.
Whether or not it is a monopoly is a red herring, since being a monopoly is not illegal. Abusing a dominant position in a marketplace is. Apple has dominance in the Apple app marketplace, which they could theoretically abuse by discriminating against competitors. Thus, it is in their interest to be transparent about how they're managing their app store.
These are mostly complaints about Python the development language, not Python the sh alternative.
Winamp was the perfect combination of UX and skeuomorphism.
Why did they go with a hydrolox first stage when they’re not even using the same engines as the second stage? Same reason as the SLS?
They aren't that expensive. ZFS provides them by default, in that no operations are ever reordered in a user-visible fashion even without fsync. That's a stronger guarantee than we're asking for here.
99% of the problems Scrum/Agile/Whatever try to solve boil down to “communicate more, more often”.

I personally have no issue with a daily stand up, but then it’s always been basically the only meeting in my day and 9 times out of 10 people have stuck to a structure and always shared something interesting and useful about their day. If you just say “no blockers” you’re doing it wrong in my opinion.

If writing and sharing works best for a team then do it that way however we, as devs, need to realise we work in service of a broader business so if we don’t do a good job communicating what we do then that business will force something on us.
And your prices don’t even take into account the difference in payloads. (Favorable to Falcon)

The price/kg is 3-4x higher for Ariane.

I don't know enough about tik tok to get how this would apply? Do they have integrations of some sort or does this mean they have to create a system for them?
Science is just about solving the problem of ignorance.

Engineering is about applying the science to real world problems.

We’re mostly in the science phase right now.
Or there's the zooming. It's always zooming in or out in a really inconvenient way. The worst is when you search, they zoom you out 10x, just so they can show you more results, but I don't want results from 100's of kms away.

Here's an idea: don't zoom! Us users are grown up enough to zoom for ourselves.
I use Darktable quite extensively for underwater photos, but keen to try Ansel out and see if it's less friction.

An example of friction in darktable:

- I have an external strobe which means I have to put the exposure down to its lowest when shooting, otherwise everything is washed out. Darktable in newer versions has "Compensate camera exposure" on by default, which washes out all the images until I click it off. I'm sure there's a way to make this checkbox disabled by default, but why can't it accept what comes out of the camera?

- No favourites: there used to be a way to have all your panels in a favourites tab. This was great as I usually only use a handful of modules that I use. It's gone in later versions

- The "color balance" panel, not to be confused with "color balance rgb", it's not in any of the default tabs but useful for saturation adjustments. Why are some of these useful modules hidden? Shouldn't all modules be available by default. The only way you can get to it is by searching.

- White balance: there are now two modules and it warns you if you adjust one or the other: "white balance" the standard one on the "base" tab and "color calibration" tucked away on the "color" tab. Both modules are turned on by default, but if you adjust one or the other without turning one off it has a big red warning.

- One upgrade decided to reset export settings, and so my EXIF data was stripped out when exporting. It took me way too long to figure it out.
I hear you. Wells Fargo did generate QR codes though. So did Chase. So even though it’s a B2C feature, plenty of C2C use cases that other banks implemented and that Bank of America eventually implemented
What evidence do you have for that, or are you just pulling it out of your ass?

What games have YOU shipped? Have you worked on a team at Rock Star or EA or any other game development company?
The less average a citizen is, the less accurately the democratic function approximates their interests.

Additionally, our democratic function has strange domain mismatches were it has been overfit on unusual cases. Anyone who is more agency seeking than average will likely confront some vogonic laws and develop conflicting feelings.

It's not nihilism, I just expect absolutely nothing productive to come out of an attempt to regulate and control a technology that doesn't exist yet. Please show me a single result of alignment research that has real world applicability and is not just a variant of "train your model on aligned data so it is aligned". And the latter form of alignment success, RLHF and instruction finetuning, came after the base model capability was unlocked.

If you are doing any sort of challenging intellectual endeavour you need one of two things in order not to be inevitably wrong: you either use rigor as in math or the scientific method, or you do engineering with real things that you can test and play around with.

If neither of these two are giben then your field is likely to produce decades worth of junk results and predictions such as it happens in economics, sociology, psychology, and especially philosophy.
You could fund a billion dollar 10 year program with economists in order to prevent the next big market crisis and they would not produce any valuable work.

I see AGI alignment research as being kind of in this position: Rigorous mathematical results are impossible or impractical (theoretical results about perfect actors maximizing utility functions or sth are unlikely to apply on the real world), and if you do not have AI models of that capability level available, you can also not engineer, test, and play around with your ideas. Hence I lots and lots of papers and theories will be produced and eventually the real world will show what was correct, but no valuable predictions will have been obtained.
> I am guessing that Apple has a lead in this stuff. Are Intel or AMD copying them at all?

Not exactly.

The AMD chip you are thinking of is the MI300, and it was originally a giant server APU with 24 cores. It was marketed as a HPC supercomputer chip.

Intel had something similar, Falcon Shores, a big APU.

...And as it turns out, almost no one cared. The ML industry doesn't want unified memory APUs, an inference chip, a training chip, a bigger training chip, and so on. They want Nvidia GPUs. Everything is already coded to work with this "second computer that plugs in," as you said, so thats what customers want. Even Nvidia themself seems to be spinning their wheels with grace-hopper.

So AMD spun a MI300 into a variant with an even bigger GPU and no CPU. And they emulated CUDA (a work in progress).

Intel canceled Falcon shores and redid it as a pure GPU, with their other AI IP (Gaudi) baked in like tensor cores. With a 2 year delay. And they are moving heaven and earth to support PyTorch and other frameworks out-of-the-box.

I can't emphasize how disruptive this is, especially for Intel. Silicon takes years and 9+ figures to design. They would not have made these moves if there was even modest short-term interest in unified memory chips for AI.
I really recommend people to take up niche programming languages (Clojure gets my recommendation) and find work in places where there aren't thousands of applicants per position, because I have found in those places management treats you like a person, like an expert in your field, give you autonomy and respects your opinion. Doing JavaScript when there are 10 thousand other people who could take your job at an instant creates the sort of environment where processes rule everything, managers don't value you because you're just another cog in a machine. Either that or become a consultant. Or best of all, become a consultant in a niche language, like Clojure. I don't know about the U.S, but in EU consultants are usually treated like experts in their field and paid much better than employees.

I'm reminded of something. There's a Finnish guy on YouTube, goes by Bisqwit. He programs a lot in his spare time and he's a fucking genius. Writes a lot of graphics and 3D code, on old platforms like DOS, that sort of thing. Turns out he drove a truck for a living and programmed in his spare time only. Seemed to be having a blast. Don't know if he's changed careers since, I think he tried programming as a career and switched back to driving a truck or something.

https://m.youtube.com/user/Bisqwit
It obviously is the right career for you, because it's granted you a level of privilege that few people experience. It's enabling you to pay off your debt and save up loads of cash which you'll use to retreat to a cabin in the woods. Most people cannot do that. Most people's jobs are not the right job for them, but they do it because they have to, and they live paycheck to paycheck, and they'll never be able to retreat to a cabin in the woods.
The first thought I had was: thank you Jimmy Carter.
I see you have never worked with small businesses (read someone with a Etsy store going around to individuals to make their first $100) trying to get off the ground. This post is not meant for you in that case
How will you feel eating a potato chip tonight, knowing that next year they'll probably make the bag smaller and increase the price?

You're not locked into subscribing to YouTube until you die. This is a misunderstanding I see frequently among hackers. They also seem to think that changing the default web browser is equal in severity to building a battleship...

I specifically bought LG LED UQ75 43" 4K Smart TV to be used as a monitor.

When I powered up it for the first time there was like a 1 second lag between moving the mouse and the cursor moving and I started to scream internally. But I found the "Game mode" and it fixed the lag and killed off all those fancy enhancements features.

HDR works, angles are a bit too narrow for the close sit, though would be fine for 1m+.

I never connected it to the net, the software don't bother me with that at all.

I've even updated the FW on it, the old style - by writing it on the USB thumb-drive and physically sticking it in.

fsync doesn't have to "perform", because it doesn't have to do anything. It just has to wait for some certain events to occur that will eventually occur anyway.

Now some people might not like how long it takes; maybe it's waiting for some unnecessary events that are not relevant to this file.
It is not my responsibility to make sure people can make money off of me by means of "implied contracts" and other similar bullshittery. It is those people's choice to make those videos, and it's their choice of which platform they publish them on. But then it's MY choice of how I use the internet on a device I own.
Look at the user names. I didn't make the parent comment.

That goes to Apple then.

The accounting liability gets erased after a few years and the asset stays on the books

I am the MD of a small company. I have two partners and 15 employees. We are a private company and we can do what ever we like (within reason).

If we decided to try and grab a pot of cash from quivering investors to do mad things we would go for a listing - go public. Nowadays we would flood Insta/X/FB and that with all sorts of wankery and perhaps bother with the usual media and then show a bit of ankle to an exchange and then go with a prudent offering. We would offer x shares for y price.

Obviously, the world goes mad for us and buys the lot and with full capitalisation we become a unicorn with a rainbow mane. The papers are agog with how cool I am and TikTok explodes with how cool male pattern baldness really is.

y goes berserk and we have to split the bloody things to allow plebs to have a crack.

We are talking about money and not physics. I am a journeyman.
It's Scando, so i would imagine that if the relevant ministers in FI SE NO all sign off, and no major market players (like Fortum) object, then they'll unwind it and fall back to replaying the previous day's bids. Or is this impossible ?
I’ve never seen Olivia Coleman turn round and say “what an amazing nights sleep with my foobar mattress, use code HRH for 3 months free subscription”.
Honestly, and I know this is weird, but I just pay for premium. I can download videos and the only commercials I see are the promos the YTers include. Not for everybody obviously.
This is about Android's Bluetooth stack.

Is the Android Bluetooth stack usable on Linux in general? It seems to work a whole lot better and with more devices, so would be great if it was usable.
Thats a good point and it would be nice if humanity could divide and conquer responsibilitys in a more effective way. I mean It would be nice if Europe would specialize in deep space vehicles if this is what their best at.

They could allow SpaceX and the Chinese to compete for the Earth/Mars ship & cycler market, while Europe could step one step further distant. and become the king of ultra-long-haul journeys such as between Jupiter’s moons, the asteroids, etc.

Eventually this could culminate in Europe leading the creation of modern, state of the art new vehicles to run the Grand Tour and go so fast they outrace the Voyagers.

..Somewhere in these paragraphs I totaly forgot to make a good pun about ruling Europa

No, it's not a joke.

Please explain this to me.
SpaceX has already reused some Falcons 16 times. They're aiming for 20 and Elon, being Elon, thinks they can do 100x. At this point, the biggest expense will be fuel.
The IRS documentation also says to ask the "responsible person" so if someone approached the public office with the intention of interacting with the responsible person and they were unavailable, and the person spoken with essentially "took a message" how does that not basically conclude the submission of the request?

I also infer that the clock starts upon the scheduled viewing, not automatically once the request was made, but I could be missing a nuance.[1] Specifically, " Timely Response to Requests".

The fact that civilization now runs on ads is insane to me. How did we get here?
Stealing and piracy are not related at all. They are not close to the same thing. Comparing them is the wrong way to make an argument.
It's worked for years. I've been using it the whole time.
I haven’t used Google Maps in probably four or five years. Apple Maps doesn’t track me, Google does. And if I can navigate the maze of obscure privacy settings across my Google account, I still don’t trust myself to have done it correctly or Google to respect setting. Apple Maps is sufficient for my driving needs, and is more accurate and provides better routes than Tesla’s infotainment option.

On a side note, I haven’t found an easy way to use Google search logged out, but have a Gmail tab open. After months of irritation, I signed up for Kagi once they lowered the price for unlimited searches, and haven’t looked back. My personal and business Gmail accounts are my only Google ties (plus YouTube for the kids), and honestly I feel more secure this way.
> I suspect that the US gave a heavy push to SpaceX

I think they just gave contracts, not any grants or funding. And they got contract after successful test flight of falcon 9 afaik. I would hardly consider this heavy.
I can vote for that as well.
For me (on android) it works by selecting a route, and then while you are in the overview, click on the 3 dots on the top right and in the dropdown you can select "search along the route"
It doesn't mean I'm going to try and get everyone onboard with shrinkflation though. I'm not telling everyone "aye it's a part of life, accept receiving less so that stocks can trend upward."

It's good to have a healthy tension between consumer wants and corporate financials. If everyone stops using ad block today then Google reports one quarter of increased profits. Afterward, investors are normalized to that expectation, the fact everyone is watching ads is meaningless, and Google pursues whatever their next step is for squeezing blood from stone.

I want to live in a world where products are as good for me as possible without corporations going under. I do not want to live in a world where products are as poor as I'll tolerate just for profit maximization.
Anybody know which court this was filed in and the actual filing?
That has almost no value to them unless they can use that to show you ads. They use that data to target ads to you, that is the whole point. Do you think they care about what you do or who you are for any other reason?
Revival of Medley/Interlisp
Confirmed with people at google
Darktable is still going strong. I am a pro photographer and use it. I tried Ansel but most of the useful modules are removed and personally, I really don't care much for the "right way" of doing things from an engineering perspective. Darktable works and that's why I use it.
For me, I have intuitions of the relationship between my printer and my screen from experience.
And I run test prints and reprint if I don’t like the way it prints.

I mean since you mentioned Adams, for Adams the print was what mattered…the print is the title of the last of his three books series.

Kodak doesn’t change HC-110 every six months because doing so destroys value.

But again it’s his software. I just wish he weren’t so bored as to invent problems to cleverly solve and solutions for which he may argue.
I understand. I regularly go and pick flowers from a display in a public park to keep inside my house. There's nothing they can do.

My point is that there's no point pretending we're righting any injustices, or the organisations we do this to deserve this behaviour. We do it because we it's hard to stop us, and there's nothing inside us stopping us from gaining from another's effort.
Nor a suitable test suite to catch this kind of thing preëmptively.
The last time I used Ubuntu, I ended up installing either bitwarden or discord through snap. Some electron app anyway.

My system logs bloated into the gigabytes with constant errors about some snap or other having faulty security settings. Absolutely no user-facing indication of any type that there's an error, just endless log messages.

I use Arch now. It's still just as miserable, but at least my problems are my own fault this time.
>is software development in decline?

it's more that with the Fed's rate hikes, cheap money is in decline and so people have to think harder about whether or not it's worth building that next speculative project without carefully really thinking about the certainty of returns.
And then people say we don't need product managers haha..

What an absolute savage takedown. The frustration drips from the page. Anyone aware of some good Github issues to read the source of this frustration?
“Nothing changes. Corruption, immorality, chaos.”
This is disingenuous and inaccurate. YouTube had no ads in 2005 or 2006. Further, YouTube ads in 2007, 2011 and today are not really even in the same category.
You write that Oberon is definitely not fast, but that only applies to the implementation - how efficient the code is given by a compiler. I will assume you are using some port of ETH Oberon, but in the Oberon world all compilers are traditionally the most linear and only support basic optimization. So Oberon by itself has the potential to be no slower than Pascal or C if the optimizing compiler is well implemented.

About "No generic type" - in fact, such type (analog of the type "variant" from Delphi) can be emulated with an empty record, from which records with a field for a specific data type are inherited. Price for the philosophy of Wirthian simplicity. ;)

I'd like to inform you that I am an Oberon enthusiast from Ukraine and the developer of the Ofront+ project, which is a translator of the five Oberon dialects into C. The Ofront+ (my fork of Josef Templ's Ofront) supports: Oberon-1990, Oberon-2, Component Pascal, Oberon-07 and my own dialect. And we can mix all these dialects in one project. I would be glad if you find an opportunity to try it out yourself. Ofront+ exists for all popular platforms: Linux, Windows, macOS on different processors.

https://github.com/Oleg-N-Cher/OfrontPlus

Ofront+ is under active development, has a community and has already been used in a couple of commercial projects. At the same time, Ofront+ is open source and free. I provide free support and advice to Ofront+ users.
