> what would stop Iran from reprogramming their F-14's IFF to identify as as civilian aircraft

If you do that, you paint a target on civilian aircraft launched from your country's airfields. Especially if your airfields are military and civilian dual-use like the airfield in this case.
Regarding correctness, will it display uint64 numbers without truncating them? That's my biggest pet peeve with jq currently.
> running an outdated version on an Ubuntu 16.04 VM that I couldn’t upgrade because the Mayan docs for that version are not available anymore

For years I was eyeing Mayan as one the variants I could use. Not anymore.
It's tangential to the thing being presented. There's one of these comments in almost every thread about a project with a potentially colliding name and they are repetitive and uninteresting.
To me, it would depend on whether you always wanted to deploy the cronjobs with the codebase. I think I usually want the option to deploy them separately.

Just as an example, if you have 8 nodes or whatever, your cronjob is going to get updated when the first one is deployed, not the last. The other nodes may or may not support that cronjob until they get the update.

Going the other direction, if you have to roll back a single node for whatever reason, now you have conflicting cronjob versions.

I typically want those rollouts to be separate so that I can handle failures in the app deployment before I update the cronjob.
If gamer populations lasted forever, maybe I could fly helis in BF4 forever. I was top-rated in my state for a while. Probably my single favorite gaming experience overall.

I get a lot of replay out of some single-player games: Rimworld, Slay the Spire, Skyrim, Fallout 3. I just found shattered pixel and I like that a lot, and could see replaying it a bunch. I fly quadcopter sims a lot, too, and still enjoy that a bunch.
If there are guardrails in place not to output sensitive data (good practice anyway), then how would this technique suddenly bypass that?

I still have trouble seeing a direct threat or attack scenario here. If it is privacy sensitive data they are after, a regex on their comparison index should suffice and yield much more, much faster.

>Liquid fueled planes get lighter and more efficient as they fly, a battery plane starts with a much larger and heavier fuel load and carries it the whole trip

I saw a concept once that had the plane drop the big battery after takeoff (maybe after reaching cruising altitude too) and let the battery fly back to the airport autonomously. Then it doesn't have to carry that dead weight for the entire trip.

But, just like the promise of extended range batteries you could tow behind your EV for long trips, it's probably not real-world feasible.
React Native. Why would you want a desktop app when it's already working in a browser?

If you really want a desktop app, I would recommend using React for the web, React with Electron for desktop, and React with CapacitorJS for mobile.

There is something I find rather hard to communicate about the difference between these models on civitai and what I think a competent model should be able to do.

I'd describe them like "a bike with no handlebars" because they are incredibly difficult to steer to where you want.

For example if you look at the preview images like this one: https://civitai.com/images/3615715

The model seems to have completely ignored a good 35% of the text input, most egregiously I find the (flat chest:2.0), the parenthesis denoting a strengthening of that specific part of the prompt. The values I see people use with good general models range from 1.05~1.15. 2.0 in comparison is an extremely large value, that ended up _still not working at all_, if you take a look at the actual image.
Congratulations! We're almost back to the basic functionality we used to have with XSLT.
>show me your source documents

>GPT
As an AI developed by OpenAI, I don't have access to or the ability to display "source documents" in the traditional sense. My responses are generated based on a large dataset that includes a diverse range of texts, but this data is not directly accessible or referenceable in individual interactions. Instead, I generate responses based on the patterns and information I've learned during my training, up to my last update in April 2023. For specific information or document-like responses, I rely on my training and the tools available to me, such as the browser tool for up-to-date searches or the DALL-E tool for image generation.
I agree, we should limit flight to exclusively across large oceans. And replace flights over land with more practical low carbon options like high speed trains.
To be fair, exactly that level of investment in process and conservatism around change is arguably what led them all (literally every single Japanese manufacturer) to miss the boat on EVs.

Basically, getting to your last sentence: you have the wrong threat model. Making "cars better" is great if what a "car" is doesn't change. But what the market wants is "better cars".

The tweet text for those who don't want to visit Twitter:

I started sending JavaScript, and no one noticed

Status Pages used to be small (around 13KB), but they weren't necessarily fast. It still took a few hundred milliseconds to query a database, and convert that result into HTML.

I managed this by completely disabling JavaScript in our React framework (Remix). While a fun thing to brag about, this actually slowed down my ability to release new features at a high quality. Charting libraries that support being server-side rendered are surprisingly rare (and buggy). Tooltips required a workaround that added hundreds of DOM nodes to the page, slowing down the app.

Recently I snapped, and started sending JavaScript to users. This means users download approximately 265KB when they first load an OnlineOrNot Status Page (a 20x increase). No customers have complained, instead, folks are happy about new features being shipped.

Or you could just use an actual host running actual cron. No clicking, no terraform, just crontab -e. The last thing small short-staffed startups with no infra people should be doing is messing around setting up cloud infra to run something on a schedule.

Scheduled actions on a scalable deployment aren't straight forward, unless you just want all your live instances to run the scheduled actions at the same time in parallel. You'd need the instances to coordinate with each other to make sure they aren't redundantly running the same actions, and you might need to scale the number of instances based on the scheduled actions. (Consider the case where the service is scaled down to 0 live instances, or where all the instances are busy with load and you want more instances to come up to deal with the scheduled actions.) In this case, you want cron handled by something aware of all your instances and can scale them (or you want it running outside of your scalable deployment and have it hit your load balancer which is aware of all your instances and can scale them, etc).

Funny that the routes and towns map is the same as the in game map, except it's sort of mirrored North-South around pallet town. So instead of starting clockwise out of pallet town in game, you would start counter-clockwise on this generated map.
You still need training data.

Even if you had a simulation set up for training, and enough compute on the vehicle to run something like MuZero real time inference for self driving, you would still run into the problem of humans setting up all the possible driving scenarios, which will likely leave some out and the model will never learn the right actions for those - meanwhile, to any human, the action would be very obvious. Over time you could probably get close enough to a very very small error rate, but you would still be hesitant to trust the system.

A true superhuman driving agent would most likely be able to take a picture of a scene, and then give a prediction of evolution of object position in 3 dimensions for a given time window, and give a confidence score on that. For example, if the single image is from few on a highway, it should be able to predict that cars are in fact moving, because the chance of cars standing still on a highway is very low.

And to train a model like that, you most likely need a base model that can "understand" physics.

Additional images from the past or the future would generate prediction that is more accurate, and also improve the model self assessed confidence. And then you would have some heuristic algorithm like MCTS based on confidence levels on the best course of action.

I don’t disagree.

This is a nice gateway for non technical but “I can find someone to help me with this system”.

Same goes for particular groups of hardware.

You’re night it’s a mix but the fact you can run most things on one platform fairly easily is pretty useful.
Very good take. It seems clear to me that the status quo will remain for the far future until Israel eventually decides to enact their "final solution to the Palestinian problem" of mass expulsion/genocide/forced starvation which for all we know could take 1000 years.
I'll try my best to explain everything (trying to avoid too much security lingo, hopefully).

A password manager is a big database of passwords. There is a master password that decrypts the database and from there you can use your passwords. Notice that hashes are one-way operations thus not used in password managers. The benefits of using a password manager are that that users need to remember and handle only one password, that of their password manager, the rest of the passwords are unique and can be rotated quickly. Ideally, your password manager does a few more things, including taking precautions against leaving traces of passwords in memory etc.

There's another part of commercial password managers which is mostly convenience functionality. Passwords are synced across devices, specific members access specific passwords etc.

Some people do use local password managers, depending on their threat model (i.e., who's after them) and their level of expertise/time on their hands. Setting up something locally requires taking additional precautions (such as permissions, screen locks etc.) that are typically handled by commercial password managers.

Reg. Okta, Okta is an identity provider. In theory, identity providers can provide strong guarantees regarding a user, i.e., "I authenticated him thus I gave him those token to pass around". Strong guarantees can include a number of things, including Multi-factor Authentication, VPN restrictions etc.

Funny story: during an internal red team engagement on a previous employer of mine, we took over the local password manager of a subset of the security org, twice. The first time, they had a VNC, unauthenticated, with the password manager running and the file unlocked. The second time, a team conveniently used Git to sync their password manager file, with their password tracked.

I mean, isn't ignoring the atmosphere ignoring like 90% of the domain?
Waze? But my hyperbole aside ("only one"), how many people do you know use these other platforms? Colloquially people call things monopolies if they have sufficient market share, not absolute (which nearly never exists), or market collusion exists (e.g. ISPs, airlines, oil). People even do it for 2 dominating companies (e.g. Coke + Pepsi only controls 71% of market share (46.3+24.7)). Because the truth is that monopolies aren't always bad, they are just dangerous because they have so much weight that they can perform abusive tactics and that's the thing we actually care about. My whole point is that this gets to be a very sticky situation when the product is the market share (the more people that use Google Maps the better Google Maps gets. But maybe social networks are a clearer example).
I've never seen a robot that can wash and fold laundry! At least not one that I can have in my home.

I guess I need it to be actually useful without supervision - put socks away, or pick up dirty clothes and put them in hamper, or put dirty dishes from the living room next to the sink, tidy the place up a bit. I'm a hacker so I love the open nature of this project, but unless it's actually useful for something, I will have a hard time convincing the other member of this household to have a robot/vase-destroyer/fire-hazard prattling around the home.

Maybe it could have a vacuum cleaner on the base..?
Except it is, because everyone knows sort of what it means, an interpreted language that prioritizes convenience over performance; Perl/Python/Ruby/Lua/PHP/etc.

SBCL is definitely a different beast.

I would expect Emacs Lisp & Lua to be more similar.

Erlang had plenty more funding and stricter requirements.

C++'s std::map has most likely gotten even more attention than Python's dict, but I'm not sure from your comment if you're including Python's VM dispatch in that comparison.

> You need oil and regular oil changes.

Slightly OT, but I recently found that here in Germany there is a service where you can go to just like to a car wash without making an appointment. They will do the oil change for you within ten minutes or so and you do not even have to get out of your car during that time. This makes oil changes so much less annoying.
Unfortunately JSON numbers are 64 bit floats, so if you're standards compliant you have to treat them as such, which gives you 53 bits of precision for integers.

Also hey, been a while ;)

Edit: I stand corrected, the latest spec (rfc8259) only formally specifies the textual format, but not the semantics of numbers.

However, it does have this to say:

> This specification allows implementations to set limits on the range/and precision of numbers accepted. Since software that implements IEEE 754 binary64 (double precision) numbers [IEEE754] is generally available and widely used, good interoperability can be achieved by implementations that expect no more precision or range than these provide, in the sense that implementations will approximate JSON numbers within the expected precision.

In practice, most implementations treat JSON as a subset of Javascript, which implies that numbers are 64-bit floats.
Yep. And if you’re writing typescript, please include type definitions, source maps, type definition source maps and the original typescript source.

Having all of this stuff makes it possible to ctrl+click on functions in my libraries and read the corresponding source code. That’s a godsend during development - well worth a few extra kb of files in the npm module.

Or high-speed cars. I hate trains.
In the US on average an EV gets the equivalent of 91mpg. On the dirtiest local grid (MROE) it gets 42mpg, the cleanest (NYUP) is 247mpg. 42 isn't that great but for most driving habits it will eventually come out ahead in carbon emissions.

That's for cars, a plane's lifetime emissions are way more weighted towards fuel.

Honestly, not really any of it. My only real subscriptions (web hosting and domain name registration) are done on a yearly basis, and the one site with software I pay for is renewed on a 'when it's needed' basis (since the forum uses XenForo).

I've noticed this style of usage greatly reduces the quality of work my colleagues produce. The computer is great at writing stuff that looks right, but is not.
