Why is it a non-issue for you?

A comment in the article indicates otherwise:

>In the summer of 2022, I took an 8,000-mile road trip across the United States. Most of the time an 80% charge limit would be fine, but there were a few places where we needed to charge to 100% when going off the Interstate. Fortunately those were mostly not in high-density areas, but it would be very frustrating to hit these charges in such a case.

If you run the free tier until the intro period ends you'll know exactly what you can run for free. (There are some free credits during the trial that might skew the resurls) If you do not add anything extra after rhat, there's no visible way you can have a bill larger than 0. But you have to pay attention. Whereas before you would be told "you can't do that", later it'll just go through.

Definitely contracting for government. The places with the most people in these roles are human services (welfare, child protective), tax, transportation and health.

Tax and human services are usually state level programs with federal money and local boots. Health often has a county component, and transportation has lots of federal money everywhere but often not a lot of IT. (They manage things as capital projects)

I don’t know about Illinois and Chicago. It’s probably worth figuring out how stuff works.
This is disappointing to read. I've had nothing but excellent service from Ally. Whenever I've called their customer support, they are quick to answer, polite, competent, and have always resolved whatever problem I was having. But, I don't use their debit card.

I'd say I'd be more confident of Neuralink if someone who actually knows about BCI/BMI were involved, like I'd like to see names like Rich Andersen, Doris Tsao, or someone from the late Krisha Shenoy's lab involved...

Why not Logo as a first introduction to programming? Why muddy the waters with anything other than writing little programs to make a turtle draw flowers?

I know, it’s not web development, but it does present the broader concepts in a way that fully digestible!

I just don’t see how someone with no experience at all with programming can ever be expected to make an interactive web page in just 6 weeks.
My partner is a professional photographer with large brand beauty clients, so I know all to well the extent of change from the raw image to the final release... To me, its a fine line, and just because some monkey wants to toy with photoshop as a career doesn't mean they can ignore all ethics. More so after all we have learned about the FRAUD of self worth and body image being pushed on young people, particularly young women.
I don't understand: you think that people are coming to my shows, to be in the presence of vibrating strings, as I say, because of some abstract reflex created by the possibility of violence visited upon them as a result of their listening to other musicians?

Am I reading this correctly?

And I don't think there is evidence that the "economic link between the art and its creator" is strongly correlated to the license used to release the art.
erm, if their latest "cranioplasty w/ eCoG" thing that's being rumored is real, that's way more invasive than the current deep brain stimulation or utah array systems...
Yeah we tried Claude 2 to summarize multiple conversations and if we give it the instructions at the start and then show it the conversations it almost always forgot the original instruction and ends up outputting something related to the conversation so long context whole nice seem to break down very quickly. What I found worked better was to provide the instructions at the end but given the in ability to follow the starting instructions my guess is much of the early conversations are lost… so yeah not so sure big context is a silver bullet

I can think of quite a few initiatives which have taken in countless billions of dollars, cancer research, Alzheimer's, Dementia, Cystic Fibrosis, etc.

Nothing sexy about that at all, just helping people lead normal lives.
Anecdote: My wife and I both got the 15 pro recently. At the apple store they had to run an update. My wife’s phone started updating minutes before mine with a regular sized cable. They brought over another identical laptop with a much larger chunky cable to update my phone. Mine finished first. I don’t know what cables they use at the apple store but that was a close to controlled conditions as you get with two new phones updating from the same type of laptop with the only difference being the cable.
Your anecdote about JP7 being hard to light in fire is also true for pump gas. The liquid gas is not flammable, only the aerosolized gas is.

The supreme court has proved itself incapable of living up to the expectations of the reasons for giving them lifetime appointments. It's time to limit their appointments to 20 years.
Context: the WSJ is not a trustworthy non-political news source especially in education coverage, so this has to be read in a political context, rather than an education context.

This particular project sees some small gains from optional/opt-in same-race (Black) classes, from a district open to trying anything to improve abysmal Black student performance. Good for them, but it isn't like this kind of approach is a viable strategy to rectify the multi-generation order of magnitude disparities in resources and pathways most Black students are facing when it comes to education.

Of course when it comes economic disparities the WSJ is quite deliberately and systemically blind, and obviously in this piece poverty and resources etc get zero quantitative mention.

But again the WSJ isn't news, it's politics. As a political hit piece, I thought it was quite clever. Highlighting an AEI quote that such projects undermine the goal of the CRA- which the AEI and the now political WSJ fight at every turn- is really chef's kiss. Well done!
We know. I think the main objection is that it is just more noise and clickbait that really teaches nothing[0], or this case, buybait.

I believe that was for colon cancer specifically (and maybe some other ones). Perhaps eating red meat has a net negative effect on other types of cancer?
Yes, but you can also play around with it. x,y maps to u,v where t is a constant that may be animated and you can use many functions. Nice to build intuition. Here is an example:

> Did they do the bank a huge favor by just selling the house and dissolving the mortgage?

No, the bank borrowed for 15 years fixed as well so they were getting their projected return on yesterday’s dollars. It’s not like they now have more money to invest better.

Banks effectively have infinite capital for mortgages and make pretty much the same margin whether rates are 2% or 30%.
That would be an invitation for counterfeit cables to squat on those ASINs.
> Two different things with the same connector, and with the Thunderbolt cable easily able to take on all responsibilities of a USB-C cable, means they aren’t that different.

That is... not actually true. Let's ignore the fact that Thunderbolt cable will probably be 2-5x more expensive and thicker. But as soon as you get past a certain very short length (~0.5m), it'll need active amplification and those active repeaters tend to not support alt modes properly and have issues with certain USB3.2 devices as well - making them outright worse or even non-functional when used with non-Thunderbolt devices (which is most of devices - the Thunderbolt chipsets are staggeringly expensive).

But sure, scroll down and tell the person that's asking for a CarPlay cable to buy a 130$ cable to connect their USB2.0 phone to USB2.0 car for a USB2.0 protocol :)
Disabling notifications is easy (hold notification, click "disable") so if it rolls out and you don't care, it's quite trivial to get rid of the notification wall.

So far, no apps that I know of have any such feature. If only one single app does it, it shouldn't cause a problem for anyone.
I absolutely love the idea of embedding Prolog-esque rules inside a full traditional programming language for solving specific problems. The region-based local mutation is also an incredible idea that would really solve one of my core pain points with immutable languages like Haskell and Elixir.

Also this part made me let out an audible "wow":

> We can exploit purity reflection to selectively use lazy or parallel evaluation inside a library without changing the semantics from the point-of-view of the clients.

Will definitely keep an eye on this language! The syntax seems a little odd (inferring type parameters for functions?) but I'm sure I could get used to it.
Good question. Yes I think it's more secure if complemented with other
good mechanisms. I agree that the current state of most voice based
schemes is pretty poor. But those that involve a separate codebook can
be quite tight.

Like all things it's more secure in the hands of people moderately
educated in protocols and sufficiently sceptical.

A general security problem, perhaps a paradox, is that the more we try
to hide it for "convenience", the more opaque and automatic, the more
people come to blindly depend on the mechanism at some other layer and
stop thinking.

I suppose what makes voice based interaction more secure is that it's
slower. It gives more time for levels of security in depth and for
people to figure out something is amiss.

But we'll have to see how that pans out with sophisticated
voice-spoofing technology because I expect most people, even well
educated and sceptical ones, are easily flipped into trust mode by the
sound of a seemingly familiar voice and some clever replay attacks.
Lithium is only a small percentage of weight like 10%.
You're speaking very authoritatively about the future plans of a company that is notoriously secretive about its future plans.

Do you have some kind of insider knowledge?

Or are you just claiming things to be definitively true that are, in fact, merely speculation?
Any Mac on corporate environment where liability is a thing, is quite certainly running some kind of systems scanner.
I applaud every policy that actually helps the environment. (Many do not.)

1. Right to repair is awesome.

2. Imagine taxing products in a way that is inversely proportional to their reliability. Do you make RAM or products that use RAM? Standard DIMMs and products that use standard DIMMs are taxed at a lower rate than products that use soldered on RAM.

Sell LCD screens or products that use them? A standard connector and standard mounting holes (as measured against products sold in that category) lowers your tax bill.

If your parts have to be coded to the machine, every one is taxed as a 1-off product interface.

Let's tax 1-off products at 100%, and drop that to 0% at 1 billion copies that use that interface.

3. Have you ever used multiple terminals on a Linux PC? Windows used to have Windows Multipoint Server that did exactly that. It reduces waste and makes more efficient use of resources. Many households would benefit from a powerful workstation or gaming PC in a family room, with multiple screens, keyboards, and mice. Standard swiveling monitor mounts allow a single-seat triple-monitor setup to morph into 3 separate seats so everyone can get their work done at once.

Imagine mandating multi-point support on all software.

4. Lots of PCs go into landfills only because companies like Microsoft refuse to support them. We all see 6th Gen Core machines going in the trash because the are not supported in Windows 11. The easy fix is: If a product has 100,000 installs that are willing to pay $10 per year for updates, then security updates are required as a national security issue.

I'm sure my numbers need some work. These are just ideas.

Looks like simplified versions of some games they have at Little Planet:

What vague praise? I mentioned I mostly play older games. Your M2 Max won't get anywhere near gaming PC performance, but now that DX12 is mostly working some recent games should work with lower graphics settings. The Youtube channel I linked tests a lot of different games on various machines, and it doesn't take much time to just test it out yourself.

These games should be playable on an M2 Max: Cyberpunk 2077, Diablo IV, Control, Dead Space, Elden Ring, Hogwarts Legacy, Spider-Man Remastered, FF7 Remake, Shadow Warrior 3

Recently I've been playing AOE2 DE, it's upscaled to native resolution and runs at 120fps with highest graphics.
Is this based on anecdotal evidence or personal experience? There are charging stations that work poorly, but many of them work well. Bigger issue is cars/charger among non-Teslas.
That's not how gravitational acceleration works.

If the particle accelerates towards black hole it will decelerate when the leaves the black hole.

To actually accelerate and keep it, you need a third particle. In a spaceship that third particle is the fuel.

In a solar system that third particle is the planets interacting with their sun.

My post is telling you what's needed without explaining it at all, please watch some YouTube videos to actually understand it.
I don't understand how that would address the concerns raised by the article.
Another argument for dropping Rosetta (2) is that it forces developers to make the transition instead of lingering in dependence of the translation. And if they don’t make the transition, get dropped by the wayside.
I wrote a much simpler Python app to do the same thing. I downloaded a word list that I found (over 400K words) and simply ran through the list, selecting the words that used the appropriate letters, and highlighting the pangram(s). I used the set functions in Python, and it scans the entire word list in just a few seconds.

The only drawback is that this enormous word list contains quite a few archaic or otherwise obscure words, so it routinely comes up with 200+ results, many of which aren't really part of a modern vocabulary. Still, it's easy to pick out the more common words.
I lived there for 6 years and halfheartedly agree. It's a very nice town in terms of general quality of life - definitely the best I've ever experienced, and I've lived all over America. But there's a pretentiousness in the air that can be utterly nauseating at times. The "Boulder bubble" is real.
To anyone looking for another platform to post bounties, I'd like to suggest our bounties site: https://community.sphinx.chat/bounties.

It's bitcoin-based but we also offer a way for people to pay for bounties outside of our platform.

If you're open to it, it may be worth while to also consider using bitcoin (although I completely understand any hesitancy and resistance to it). But you'd be able to raise funds in Bitcoin without using a custodian and using multisig where ownership can be split across multiple people. Then you can easily transfer it to hunters all over the world.

If any of this is something that interests any of you, please feel free to reach out. It's terrible to see FOSS projects get rugged and I'd love to help out in any way that I can.
Android and ChromeOS use the Linux kernel, they aren't GNU/Linux, as the termux folks are certainly aware.
I think one thing is to make sure that when your test suite executes - you should force environment to "TEST" programmatically, before any bootstrapping code even runs.

So even if you allow for connection to production (sometimes that's allowed for debugging hard-to-reproduce issues), you want to remove any room for human error.

And your code should obviously NEVER be able to connect to anything other than the local test DB when your environment is set to "TEST".
I dislike this trope of knocking Windows because of no central method of updating software. Windows software by the very nature has automatic updates, just like Mac, for each application that is installed and well supported (usually). Most applications will check for updates on launch and/or periodically. You could use a third party utility but that just increases the chance of break-age depending on what gets updated. And on a Corporate/Enterprise Environment, all of these points are moot with centralized repositories. The core point is moot in so many ways and shows a lack of understanding of the ecosystem.

The file extension bit is sort of silly as well, as, it's what made Windows as user-friendly and wide spread as it is today. Better that than treating everything as a file and allowing anything to be piped anywhere.

I think the bigger point is the ethos behind the Operating System(s) and the opaque nature of Windows that causes these downstream effects.
The Peace War / Marooned in Realtime (in one book as "Across Rraltime" were his best works I read. Really impressive.

The new approach in mind is how many of us who learned basics of programming as kids have done it, or learned anything at all. Makes sense to me.

Learning immediately about for loops, functions, variables, parameters, and any other concept you might consider basic, is putting a mountain of abstraction in front of someone that most are not prepared for.

As such i think within the context of your web course that new approach is going to make it a lot easier to get started. And I’m sure there are plenty of places for hooks for those students that want to go deeper :)

This whole latex thing seems very bizarre now that I've backed off a bit.

As a student I was "recruited" into using latex, all the stuff about separating content and typesetting, pain free pictures, bibliography...

I have tried and liked it for a while. or so I thought. until my roommate back then was telling me how his supervisor was teaching him "tricks" of some very common word processor, not gonna mention it not to sound like a shill.

anyhow, then i tried doing the same and realized, literally everything i -personally- could do with latex, i could also do with this WYSIWYG word processor!

everything including section numbering, auto formatting, pictures no longer move around, learned to use tabs, bibliography is a breeze once you use something like jabref, ... it was liberating

i believe latex has its uses though, maybe if one had a template or someone with very specific needs. but for me, i started seeing it as a massive pain in the back.

maybe I am getting old lol
You can read those scripts, you know. If you have a passing understanding of bash, it's pretty easy to understand what a script is doing and ensure it's not malicious.

Can you do that with a compiled executable?

Honestly, still mildly crazy. If:

- Whatever Star Trek says about warp reactors (matter / antimatter reaction) is valid. Reacts "some" amount of matter/antimatter every second.

- Klingon Bird of Prey can maintain an effectively infinite cloaking time from a human observation perspective, so it can be nearby.

- Warp reactor "occasionally" leaks (1% of 1% of 1% of reactions? I dunno...) so we might actually detect something. "Slightly" imperfect shielding.

- Problem: 5E1 J for OMG Particle (people say its a proton). 1.8E14 J for 1 gram of matter / antimatter annihilation. Except: 1 Proton = 1.6726231E-24 g. Proton rest mass energy is 1.503E−10 J. So the particle is more energetic than a Proton / Antiproton annihilation event (by a lot). It's been upshifted More than 100,000,000,000 from the rest mass energy.

- It "might" work if the one proton escaping represented a single proton gaining enough energy to overcome reactor core shielding confinement, which, in my opinion, seems somewhat plausible physics by Star Trek standards.

- PS: Personal guess is a Q-Clearance [3] experiment at a DOE lab we deny exists.

Only one data point, but when I did a long road trip, I encountered a tech at an Electrify America station. He told me they tend to only make servicing a station a top priority when none of the stalls are working. Otherwise, broken stalls are put into a queue for service.
I wonder if the other end is a person who'd rather have stacks of physical objects as their task list: read what the issue is, write down how to fix it, hand it over to someone who'll run and fix the problem, and give the replacement object and the paper to a delivery driver, job done.

They could digitize it, but this person would just be staring at the screen the whole day, and then has to click print and people have to wait, etc. Maybe they could amazonize it and have e-ink QR codes and scanners and robots that scan a code and fetch the next job over WiFi or 5G, but, hey, the whole idea's been discussed in the C-level for 5 years now! Especially if there's hundreds of such depots.

Although obviously the input side, at your supermarket, could be digitalized, and they could outsource a software that basically prints everything, replacing this person's fax machine, but hey, that idea's going to take 3 years to materialize, and they'll have to put such a computer with the software on each supermarket and it's been there since 2002, so...

You lose your hair thinking about inefficiencies...
