If you have a Mac or (preferably) an iPad, check out the Swift Playgrounds app. All of the playgrounds and challenges that you see are "Swift Playground Books" which anyone can create and distribute via a static website (download the template from the Apple Developer site) - you don't have to pay Apple a dime or go through a review process.

It's not Python, of course, but it does give you an idea of what is possible.
I don’t consider that very rare. Everything else being equal, a celiac customer would be a daily occurrence at almost any restaurant.

The prevalence is on the same order of magnitude as peanut allergies.
Yes, it’s entirely AppKit.
On at least one occasion they got left in the pub!
FWIW:

All Macs have been 64-bit for at least 11 years, if not longer. (My MBP from 2012 was 64-bit.)

Apple dropped 32-bit support a long time ago. Not sure of the exact date, but sometime around 2015-2017 I had to port a Mac application to 64-bit because the upcoming release of MacOS was going to drop all 32-bit support.
IME, username + password along with an occasional and random "we don't recognize your machine" where they send a 2FA code over SMS.

Entertainingly, they seem to sniff user-agents in some way. Firefox on Linux works fine, but I tried to log in with Firefox on OpenBSD recently, and it just kicked me out suggesting I try their mobile app[0]; I tried the ungoogled-chromium package, and it worked. Apparently, this presents a FreeBSD user-agent string.

I sort of want to switch to, well, any other institution, but my family is terrified "what if there's not an ATM nearby?" Strangely, I've never had easy access to a Chase machine on any holiday or business trip I went on.

[0] I love it when they know I'm on a desktop and still encourage you to install their zippy new app. PayPal, I'm sure that iOS app has a Void package.
what he's saying is that the process chase is following doesn't add security, bec they're texting me a code to the same number they're calling me on, if I can answer the phone I call see a text to that phone number.
> Yes, Rust's BC is a great technology, but C++ is not a runaway nuclear fire which contaminates and melts everything around it when it comes to sanity and security.

I never meant to imply such a thing. However, Rust is simply a much better-defined language. Moves do what you expect, smart pointers work like you'd expect, there are not 3 (or 5) different types of constructors you have to understand and implement properly if you want to build your own abstractions. You don't have to remember where to put std::move, you don't have to remember what happens to the variable after you move out of it, you don't have to use the awful variant accessor functions if you want a tagged union and so on.

Yes, you can do all this in C++. You can build safe abstractions. You can build layers on top of the STL to make it less awful. You can make use of modules and #embed and other nice new features that C++ is getting. But you need to be a lot more careful compared to Rust, because the compiler is not going to help you.
> I don't find it at all insightful or humorous.

Humor isn't an absolute. I find it funny because if Stroustrup had tried he probably couldn't have made a language with more footguns, there are so many things in there that require a lot of discipline not to use (or overuse). At the same time it was a supremely useful language that allowed for much better abstraction than C ever did but it definitely came with a price.

Wait, what, that wasn't real???

I thought notes was just a client that syncs via IMAP so you would be able to use any notes app that supports IMAP sync?

Or has this changed?
Primitive hunter-gatherer societies might have raised their children in a communal way, with relatives and friends living nearby, always interrupting and nagging us.

We, the supreme civilisation, at the summit of evolution, are locked in in individual cages, disconnected from each other, so we can spend more quality time attached to our screens.

We are “civilised to death”
I'd definitely prefer the latter. The damage that bad actors can do is often extremely limited, while the potential benefits of more capability are boundless.

Thanks for that. A bit of it belongs in the title, regardless of what information the link goes to. For example..

Helm: open-source software-based synthesizer
Fret: Formal Requirements Elicitation Tool v3.0
FRET was developed by the NASA Ames Research Center to specify safety-critical applications whose failure could result in loss of life, significant property damage, or environmental harm. However, since it is open-source software, FRET is available to anyone who wants to create precise, unambiguous requirements for their applications. Version 3 was released on Aug 30.
I don't think it was ever precisely accurate in absolute terms, and it surely isn't more accurate now, but it appears to be accurate in relative terms -- i.e., as percentage changes in activity over time. A semi-random sampling of subreddits corroborates the conclusions of the data (that there are far fewer user contributions now).
Yea and it offers a newer crossover build than whiskey, not sure why whiskey isn't using the latest open source version available

It’s truly embarrassing. Would like to see a ban on them working in private industry for two years after they leave office.
I presume that in many cases the paper was everything. Remember the term "paper pusher"?
I have to assume this was not only one person, HP doesn't do anything for one person, so I'd have to imagine at a few hundred (or thousand) at least went out. This doesn't seem even that good a deal, the cheapest model, which I'd have to presume this to be is $649 US currently, so I can't imagine it was even worth their effort to action something like this, literally mass recalling them from the delivery trucks en route like they screwed up and sent everyone a $3000 laptop.

More like some middle manager forced some random behavior because they screwed up the listing and didn't want to be held accountable to their boss personally.

If it were actually worth more, it would be interesting to get in touch with others that had the same crap pulled on them and get HP on the TV news for being a Christmas Grinch and just a really nasty company in general for doing so to customers.

As said, this could be construed as illegal behavior if anyone bothered to lawyer up for it, but for 300-400 return, just swear never to buying anything HP again, and tell all your friends what scum they are. I have never had anyone have a good experience with an HP laptop, consumer low-end ones particularly, and already tell everyone I know to avoid them if asked.

Doubt it will continue to work once Apple completely stops supporting Intel.
Bring your own embeddings. PyTorch and TensorFlow packages are 2GB+ each (don't quote me on that), which is unnecessary if you're making a network call to your favorite embedding service.
> The issue is not in the fact that you don’t have your dependencies, it’s the fact that you are coming from a world that doesn’t/hasn’t had support for it.

Exactly. With Rust you can commit your Cargo.lock file and you will then be able to rebuild your project with the exact same version of all your deps in the future. No need to commit the deps themselves.
And if you want interactive support, try https://github.com/bombela/fzf.vim.rgfd

It didn't work for me for the macOS version I tried (not the latest one). Probably because the installer is not available from Applr's servers anymore.

I agree in principle, but you also need the same machine too otherwise new OS and hardware might introduce issues too. I resurrected an old project that needed to convert LESS to CSS and the node version required couldn’t run on my machine. Upgrading it to a version that could introduced filesystem changes that broke the packages that it was looking for.

Now just imagine businesses in the middle of a platform shift like Macs going from Intel to Apple’s own ARM chips. Eventually you’ll going to be missing something and all this work of bundling everything will end up being busy work.

Of course, but it's a fixed cost that, if the shop is even mildly successful, will quickly become a single-digit percentage. London retail space (most expensive in UK, of course) goes for around £50 per square feet p/y, with revenues that will easily go 5x to 70x that. Elsewhere the difference is even higher. Which is why the richest companies in the world are the ones running appstores, not the ones holding retail properties: because they can get away with unescapable feudal rents that would not be tolerated in meatspace.
So, you're officially an influencer now, I bought the course. Very high quality material, a ton of work must have gone into that. I hope to get my own stuff up to that level of polish, it certainly sets an example.

I get the notion of not allowing it to devolve, however I do think it should be OK and acceptable to upvote someone for truly making a humorous or clever comment. I work with a lot of clever people in my job, and humor (even bad humor) is part of our daily camaraderie and social interaction, so in some ways it's second nature for me to want to post humorous comments.

Not to over complicate the comment system here but I wish one could just tag a comment as "humor" and one could then choose to just not show them if one did not care to see such things.

A saying most black Americans will be familiar with is, "It takes a village to raise a child." It resembles proverbs common to cultures across Africa; one could say that it's cultural knowledge embedded deeply within the African diaspora. American black culture is often derided as being inadequate, particularly in efforts to raise well-adjusted and pro-social children, but what's rarely mentioned by these commenters is how frequent and widespread are the historical and contemporary destruction and dissolution of black communities in America. In the too-common case of single mothers rearing children alone (the absence of the father often itself a product of poor social support), the difference seems to be in the presence or absence of older siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and supportive teachers, especially when the mother is forced to work multiple jobs in order to cover ever-increasing expenses. (It should also be noted that when the father is present, married or not, he tends to spend more time with his children than fathers of other ethnicities.)

I bring this up in order to maybe open some minds as to why we see racial disparities of certain types - and also because, as mentioned by another commenter, the increasing atomization of families and communities of other ethnic groups threatens to replicate the aforementioned dysfunction. Common and widespread understanding of the dynamic could head-off tragedy; they hit us with crack before they hit y'all with opioids, after all.
lisp, scheme ?

My bad, Tesla is revolutionary instead, 150 year old automotive industry, 5000 year old history of the wheel.

Literally reinventing the wheel for political purpose. A true revolution in the history of virtue signaling and subsidies milking /s
I routinely rerouted my packages in San Diego since UPS wouldn't attempt delivery. You can do it with most packages unless the seller specifically has specifically forbidden it, (thank you Ingram Micro for sending me on a 3 day chase for my package)
Nice project!

I've spent quite a lot of time in the medical/scientific literature space. With regards to LLMs, specifically RAG, how the data is chunked is quite important. With that, I have a couple projects that might be beneficial additions.

paperetl (https://github.com/neuml/paperetl) - supports parsing arXiv, PubMed and integrates with GROBID to handle parsing metadata and text from arbitrary papers.

paperai (https://github.com/neuml/paperai) - builds embeddings databases of medical/scientific papers. Supports LLM prompting, semantic workflows and vector search. Built with txtai (https://github.com/neuml/txtai).

While arbitrary chunking/splitting can work, I've found that integrating parsing that has knowledge of medical/scientific paper structure increases the overall accuracy and experience of downstream applications.
Yeah vcpkg.json is the appropriate solution. That plus one git commit hash pins and verifies everything. Make port overlays if you need em.

And you really shouldn't get married to one particular version of a compiler toolchain unless you know for sure that something is going to break if you update. That just leads to a lot of annoyed programmers stuck using ancient tools for no reason.

This is very cool. I do think you could boost engagement a lot by offering a dropdown menu of transforms that you know work well and result in cool visual transformations. It would also be cool to have a palette of recognizable shapes (like letters, numbers, emoji) that you could quickly enter in and see how they get transformed instead of just freehand drawing and lines.
Vinge was one who very early recognized that the invention of artificial intelligence didn't just imply androids (as Asimov or Roddenberry imagined them) on roughly the level of humans, but rather the existence of a vastly superhuman species that would change the future completely.

In 1983 he wrote in the SF magazine Omni:

"We will soon create intelligences greater than our own. When this happens, human history will have reached a kind of singularity, an intellectual transition as impenetrable as the knotted space-time at the center of a black hole, and the world will pass far beyond our understanding. This singularity, I believe, already haunts a number of science-fiction writers. It makes realistic extrapolation to an interstellar future impossible. To write a story set more than a century hence, one needs a nuclear war in between... so that the world remains intelligible."

Ten years later, in is his famous essay "The Coming Technological Singularity: How to Survive in the Post-Human Era" he went into more detail and predicted the singularity to occur between 2005 and 2030:

Reddit was a bad habit for me, so I've resisted outright replacing it. (I basically haven't even looked at Lemmy.)

I mainly read Hacker News more than I used to and started reading Ask a Manager[0] regularly.

A big benefit of both is that they aren't "bottomless" like Reddit so I won't waste too much time on them.

AAM fulfills my desire to learn about others' lived experiences, but the relatively narrow topic range means it becomes uninteresting if I read the archives for too long.

I grew up in LA and drove taxi... just looking at the 60/(91/215), it looks pretty standard and not that different from the 10/215, but I don't think I've ever taken that exit from the 60. As enormous as SoCal freeway interchanges are, I've come to appreciate their design compared to the roads where I live now in Portland, OR. Every on- and off-ramp in Portland feels like it was tacked on or squeezed in, in the worst possible way. Moreover, the marking of exits is confusing and far too late. For out-of-town drivers it's almost impossible to don't know which side of a freeway will actually keep you on the freeway until you get to a sign, by which time you've already passed a mile of stopped cars in the lane you need to be in. The 26/405 junction heading east on 26, for example, splits the 3-lane highway into 3 exits, only one of which connects to the 405 and later splits into north and south (the other two connect to surface streets). This creates a condition where the center lane is moving fast between two lines of stopped cars, some of whom are anxiously realizing they're in the wrong lane and need to dive into the center, while some people in the center hit the brakes when they realize they need to dive into the stopped cars left or right.
Maybe last week's drama should have been a left-pad moment. For many things you can train your own NN and be just as good without being dependent on internet access, third parties, etc. Knowing how things work should give you insight into using them better.
Hopefully nothing, since they described it as an addiction and mentioned they’re now better overall.

But your question isn’t atypical, which is weird when you think about it in comparison to any other addiction. If an alcoholic said they stopped drinking, asking what drug they replaced booze with would be a weird and possibly insensitive question.
No, unfortunately I could not get Darling to compile back then and gave up. (I don't have that printer anymore either.)

Same, albeit with Reddit is Fun. Personally I used to visit Reddit multiple times per day but now I typically visit it once or twice per week, if at all. I'm sure the official app is fine, but the approach they took to third party developers soured it for me.

Ultimately I think if anything had any impact on Reddit's traffic it would have been the killing of the defacto mobile apps. The lesson any future founders should take is to kill off third party apps sooner rather than later if you ever want to do so, before user growth on those platforms becomes an issue.
Thanks, I didn't realize. The only thing with PR 12951 is that one of the invalid replacements covered on the other PR was missed (https://github.com/mhcwebdesign/opencart/blob/bc60f21aa2ece0...). Normally I'd just report it to the project but given the behavior and language observed surrounding this, why even bother.
