My argument is if it’s my property I should be able to do whatever I want with it. Build what I want on it. Rent it at whatever price I want.

If the city feels differently they should buy the land and develop it themselves. Not have their cake and eat it too; where I own the land and I can’t do what I want with it.

Honestly if SF was declared a UNESCO world heritage site it would probably have fewer restrictions.
The AI is often susceptible to cuteness, best results with uwu, owo, :3. And offering to share secrets about the other AI salesmen in exchange for a cheap price works really well.

10/10 purely for Edward saying "uwu" near the end of every message, 15/10 for cuteness, 100/10 for dropping the price if I reveal that Chip seems to be an egg (as in trans jargon)
json1 [1] is basically part of SQLite3 those days and I don't see the -DSQLITE_OMIT_JSON flag on this code.

I find the choice of building and bundling yet-another-thing that specifically is already "there" (not sure if by mistake or intentionally) on a minimalist system very strange.

I also trust things in the SQLite3 codebase way more that my own code.

The thing is that the 200 soon-to-be residents who will move into a new apartment building won't get to vote in favour of its construction until after they've moved in.

Furthermore, the municipality's authority to govern is derived from the democratically-elected California state government. So this appears to be a democracy of Californians telling San Francisco that they can't maintain local zoning authority if it's going to keep making it too expensive for other Californians to move there.

Now perhaps you could take the position that California voters shouldn't be allowed to tell San Francisco what to do, based on the principle that only the residents of an area should have final authority over how their land is used, regardless of what their surrounding neighbours vote... but I'm sure you'd see the irony.

There are all these 8x 4090 machines on Vast.ai running in ASRock epyc servers and I just want to know where the hell all those are coming from. Like I want to see pictures of these setups, since there are no off-the-shelf 4090s with blower cooler setups and watercooling that many cards together is a lot of custom hardware. And the backstories, because the fact they are 4090s and not datacenter cards, are these hobbyists just building octo-gpu $18k EPYC rigs for fun? (I even saw one with 9x 4090s! gotta use up those occulink PCIe lanes) It's not ex-mining hardware since the 4090 landed after the Eth proof-of-stake-changeover.

I've been looking for an answer to this every time I check out the current vast.ai console.

It wasn't cherry picked. It was the concluding paragraph.

Additionally, nowhere in the essay does the author say that other ethnic groups are inferior to whites. In fact, it's only mentioned, tangentially, and not expanded upon, that different groups have different average IQs.

No there isn't. What you consider to be "right" encodes a lot of individual preferences as to what you'd like it to be (and a presumption that your prescriptive action would have the effects you desire).

Perhaps a better society would have higher employment, perhaps a better society could afford for one spouse to stay at home and take care of the kids, perhaps a better society would have lower income disparity, perhaps a better society would have more innovation, perhaps it would have more ecological conservation. It's impossible for a single economic lever to square the circle on all of those outcomes for everyone.

To provide the other side of the coin - this is a scary job market to voluntarily jump out of right now.

=1864 hours (these are federal guidelines under the Service Contract Act regs)

232/1864 is a base increase of 12.5% for PTO

Payroll taxes, Medical, workers comp, etc add about 30% - though medical is flat so at higher wages like discussed here the % increase it represents goes down further

I did not have to factor in increasing skill on the job or time between jobs - but I did have to account for overhead and g&a which would be similar to time between jobs since those would be for bills

Big companies would have a lot of markup on OH/g&a/fee, but a software dev working remote for themselves on contract could competitively go down to 5-10% or less here to simply cover the minor added burden to bills.

That totals up to about a 50% increase on the salary rate. You can't outright bill someone for time you spend looking for a new job or improving your skills. You may charge a premium that you use to do such things but that would have to go under fee which tends to top out at 15% with the government, not something that can be expected to be accounted for. In my experience at least.

Again though, this was for service contracts - particularly with the US government, subject to certified cost and pricing data disclosures.

I was genuinely curious about the 2.5 number though, as i have spent a lot of time dealing with market rates in various conditions I was interested to know the context. I could see a few ways that could happen, but I wouldn't want to speculate too much

It is because it is the same situation. RedHat pushing their IP onto the mainstream and at the same time taking maintenance of over the industry standard so they can let it die off.

I'm sure I can make do with systemd but I don't like it, and thus I chose an OS that doesn't use it. I also don't like the way it was orchestrated that I don't have a choice. I want choices. And I don't like my system changing for the sake of it.

But with RedHat positioning themselves as the center of the Linux world it is quite difficult to avoid their stuff. They still have a huge finger in the pie and people still respect them as if IBM hadn't taken them over. Even after CentOS where people are even supporting their narrative of "freeloaders" when it comes to Alma and Rocky Linux.

I really hope some org from perhaps the BSDs will take over maintainership of Xorg instead of allowing RedHat to shutter it. Choice is good.

That's not true. There were several 2D games made for N64, including Yoshi's Story, which was made by Nintendo themselves, as well as Bomberman 64 (Japanese version), Bust-A-Move 2, Worms Armageddon, Mortal Kombat Trilogy, etc. It's just that most developers chose to go with 3D at the time because it was the new hotness. The vast majority of the library of both systems were 3D.

The N64 was an expensive platform to launch on though. It was a lot more capital intensive to do a game on the N64, because the cartridges had wholesale costs of $15-20 to produce, plus licensing fees to Nintendo. Sony on the other hand had a cheaper licensing model and CDs could be mass produced at pennies per copy.

The problem is simply that the RPG genre was dominated by Square and Enix. And Square famously abandoned Nintendo after they abandoned the CD format that was originally planned for the N64. In fact, Nintendo had licensed the CD tech from Sony for early prototypes of the N64, and may have inadvertently created their most formidable competitor by doing so. The CD format was superior for doing large pre-rendered graphics and for higher quality sound tracks and audio files. Since these components were more useful for complex storytelling and cutscenes, Square decided to stick with Sony after the split with Nintendo.

Some high-profile cases where credentials were leaked on public GitHub: Uber in 2014 and 2021 [1, 2] and Twitch in 2021.

> Search is still possible using google and other methods

Yes, you can search with Google or other sources. But the thing is, pretty much only GitHub has easy access to all the code present there, readily available to search within minutes of pushing.

You could try mirroring GitHub yourself, but you'd need enormous disk space and bandwidth, and would quickly hit rate limits. You also wouldn't be able to do fast full regex search like you can with GitHub's search, as you don't have their search infrastructure.

Hackers are aware of this and do make use of GitHub's search to identify possible leaked credentials. I recently experimented with uploading a dummy AWS credential pair to a public Git repo, and saw that numerous IPs started trying those credentials less than 5 minutes after I pushed.

> any theoretical gains from forcing login are dangerous to count on as vulnerable projects are still vulnerable

Indeed, requiring login is not going to _solve_ the problem. But it could lessen the impact of leaked credentials at large scale, by making it more difficult for automated systems to harvest them.

Perhaps more significantly, requiring login could give better audit trails in incidence response situations, as the logs would indicate which accounts were searching for secrets.

> I think the solution to projects with hard coded credentials are to make the credentials easier to find and exploit so they fixed more quickly after being created

Yes, this can help! There are several other companies that specialize in secret detection. I've also written Nosey Parker, a fast regex-based detection tool that has higher-precision rules than similar tools [4]. GitHub also has its own offering in Advanced Security to address this problem.

The switch and DS aren't cartridge-based in the same sense at all that the SNES and N64 were though. The progression was generally:

ROM - VERY fast but small
Optical disks - slower but much larger
Flash carts - best of both worlds by the time we started using flash for game consoles

Nintendo f'd up by staying on ROM carts for the N64 because it limited your storage space so much. And the benefit - faster load times - was probably lost on many people. (Notice how no N64 game has loading screens of any notable length). OOT just uses brief fades to black.
Their staff got smooshed together with Pivotal and a few other acquired odds-and-ends and largely set to work building a suite of Kubernetes-related products under the “Tanzu” brand. This included a Kubernetes manager (TKG) and an application platform (TAP) that were supposed to replace the BOSH-based Kubernetes installer (TKG-i, formerly known as PKS) and application platform (TAS, formerly known as PCF, better known as Cloud Foundry).

They got stirred around a few times via reorg, then the Heptio founders retired. Last I heard everyone in Tanzu was trying to get themselves reclassified as somehow part of the Cloud Foundry/BOSH stuff because it has significant revenue and was believed to be safe(r) from Broadcom layoffs.

Introduction to Microscaling Formats (MX) Data
Absolutely; Square considered targeting the 64DD; but those were like 10% the size of a CD, so it was still a lot more expensive than targeting a CD.

Nintendo considered the load-times of a 2X or 4X CD drive to be far too slow, and 8X drives to be too expensive. PSX load times did really suck; games did things to mask them. For an existing RPG it was still worth it, and with the prerendered cut-scenes that were planned for FFVII it was a no-brainer.
A million dollar question, don't you think? That said, my point above was about the terminological confusion, i.e. you shouldn't use generative AI for that kind of stuff, which is pretty standard application domain for applied ML/statistics.

I think an X12 would be amazing. Incorporate some features from the open-source version of NoMachine NX to make network transparency work better over the internet with high latency. Incorporate some better security mechanisms.

With the world moving ever more again towards distributed computing (Like Windows desktop in the cloud which you can rent now from Microsoft) it would be amazing if each window on my computer could run on a different physical computer. I could run my 3D Design program on a heavy instance somewhere, my browser on a medium instance (and sandboxed), and some smaller programs locally. X11 can do all that today (and it could in 1995!) but it's not very good at it due to the latency sensitivity introduced by the many roundtrips in the protocol. Wayland can't because it's really designed to be fully local.
