No? Grid fins don’t work in a vacuum. Lower gravity means your engines need a wider throttle range, which was already challenging at Earth gravity.

ccTLDs don't. Proof by counter-example: .co, .io.

I don't know if that can be enforced, but it'd make my life easier.

Yeah, the JSON is a bit of a crap-shoot, but I think it's maybe marginally better than trying to parse raw WHOIS text…? IDK. Probably depends on the exact datum you want to pull out of it.

I think this whole sentence was meant to be a joke. This "article" is filled with juvenile humor, random tangents, and twitter screenshots. The irony of complaining about people not properly using hypermedia while omitting some of the basic accessibility attributes of hyper text markup language (alt text) is astonishing.

I'm curious if pressure from the US ever mounts enough to end this war. Currently we're supporting Israel just like we always have and are just making some empty statements to signal to the more left-leaning segment of the Democrat voter base. I think it's most likely this reality continues, but it does seem possible, albeit unlikely, that Democrat voter discontent gets high enough that we force an end to the war in the next two months.

Of course, even if that somewhat far-fetched scenario comes true we'll probably be up to at least 40,000 Gazans killed :/
Thanks for the correction. Seems like the headline was incorrect in a different way.
It depends on the context - just ask the presidents of Harvard, MIT and UPenn
> On youtube the content was uploaded by creators on the understanding it would be freely accessible to everyone.

A lot of YouTube creators make their content for money. YouTube in this case is the layer between creator and watcher, making sure they get paid. Wether that is by ad money or subscription money. Before that, things were much more difficult for video creators.

> The next step is for youtube to require you to watch the ad and stop playing if you look away.

The next step for YouTube is hopefully to put the entire site behind a login and remove all ads.

> It's because Israelis truly feel, to their core, that Hamas has proven themselves to be an enemy that must be destroyed, otherwise Israelis are just never going to be safe again.

Has there been public debate in Israel wheter:

1. It is realistic to eradicate Hamas.
2. To what extent Israel's operation will sow new hate and resistance among the Palestinians, so that the risk of future attacks increases, whether that be by Hamas or any other resistance group.

It's hard to find compassion when the truth is hard to find, on either side. And I trust Al Jazeera (and some Israeli newspapers) less on this topic than other sources.

I definitely feel Palestinians have legitimate grievances but on the other hand I fear people's natural compassion being used to prolong a war rather than end it.
FWIW there is Xash3D[0] which while not technically open source, it does provide some of the practical benefits of having an open source engine (the issue is that Xash3D uses some HLSDL headers and needs to link against HLSDK to work but HLSDK is not compatible with GPL - the devs have tried to contact Valve for letting them use HLSDK with GPL but Valve never responded). Specifically it has been ported to a bunch of platforms and supports not only Half-Life but also other GoldSource-based games (e.g. i was able to play Gunman Chronicles using it - i have the original CD version but it has DRM that makes it impossible to play under Linux, meanwhile with Xash3D the game plays natively and i can use raw mouse input and widescreen resolutions).

I find all the marketing, advertising intentional or not, around HTMX really obnoxious.

Does it have its merits? Maybe? I don't know, I can never get past the memes and shit-slinging. Or past them superficially co-opting terms they have nothing to do with like Erlang, or hypermedia.

It's a toy mascarading as a serious tool.
Soon we will have reached the point where software piracy is the only way not to build your company on digital quicksand. I sincerely hope we never get there because it would ruin the commercial software market, which did produce amazing tools in the past. But by now, it certainly looks like major participants are boosting their last remaining quarters (before the company implodes) by scorching the earth they walk on. First Unity, now VMWare. I really have no idea why a CEO might think it to be a good long-term strategy to throw the majority of your past customers under a bus.

I suspect a very large number of people are too smart to speak up, but also resentful of the forces that work to prevent actual nuanced dialogue. That's certainly the sentiment in my bubble.

As somebody who isn't fond of the idea of an ethnostate and sees atrocities coming from all of the actors here, I don't feel comfortable speaking up due to the lack of nuance in public forums.

It's actually strictly worse: even if they had an IOMMU and the drivers were implemented correctly, phone vendors provide remote access tools as part of their firmware stack (e.g., see https://www.fsf.org/blogs/community/replicant-developers-fin...). To reiterate one of the other commenters, as long as users don't control what code runs on the baseband, they do not in fact have ownership of the device. The same holds for anything else that has a baseband (such as most modern cars). This sentiment is publicly communicated by telco's and manufacturers and convenient for regulators.

I wouldn't feel good about giving money to Hasbro right now.

With young kids' toys given as gifts, you're a little stuck, if they really want, say, specific Transformers.

But for entertainment that teens and adults buy for ourselves, there's more choice...

I can see how MtG lifestyle players who use genuine cards might be locked into continuing to give money to a Hasbro brand.

But maybe not for some of the other brands. For example, (speaking as a former DM who wrote some modules), do D&D players really need much more than d20 dice, graph paper, and an imagination?
Since having my first kid 15 years ago, I haven't meet a single kid that cares about Mickey in the slightest. Their parents sometimes shove it in their face but you can tell they don't care as much about it as something newer.
I don’t want to discount the effects of that but most people are also capable of knowing when they’re not getting the whole story. Only around a quarter of Palestinians approved of Hamas before the war.
That's an interesting point regarding suggestions. I wonder if they are having a massive drop in user engagement as the user base has matured.

The golden egg that Spotify was sitting on (user-driven curation and favourites across a huge userbase) may be slowly evaporating.

Models are infrastructure on which applications are built, but if you don't have both the clearly best models and a moat that prevents competitors from catching up, the people making money aren't going to be you selling commodity models, but the people selling applications which can even be model agnostic.

And Claude, while it may be the nearest competitor among paid models to OpenAI GPT-4, isn't both clearly best and moat-protected.
Okay?

The point is that the claim that “paying for premium means you’re no longer the product” is absolutely, and demonstrably bullshit.

Now you’re just giving money to Google for you to be the product, with a side benefit of (currently) not seeing Google ads.

This it going to change within 16 months anyway, as Google shifts away from broad spectrum premium towards premium having different benefits, and you’ll have to have individual paid subscriptions to remove ads for specific users (not unlike twitch, where paying for prime no longer removes ads).
You're both kinda correct.

What Stephane was complaining about is the whole Snap package for lxd has been marked as AGPL, and that's not correct.

How to Ask ChatGPT and Google Bard to Not Use Your Website for Training
Remember that the 6502 and its related chipset was not designed to compete with the 8080 or 6800 for general computer applications, but rather with the Intel 4004 for cheap, low-parts-count embedded applications! Keeping that in mind, a lot of the 6502 design decisions make a lot more sense.

That folks turned out complex, feature-complete operating systems several times on 6502 is as impressive as those things being done on e.g. the DEC PDP-8, IMO. Doubly so when you consider that the 6502 hackers were often just that, hackers and hobbyists without an industrial-grade budget.
The star is occulted by a small asteroid in our solar system. For something in the Betelgeuse system to occult the star, it would have to be about the same size as the star.

We detect the presence of planets in other systems when they pass between us and the star, marginally decreasing the brightness.

I'm not talking about the US government doing stuff. I'm talking about ordinary people doing stuff. If people cared about human rights abuses they would protest Turkey and Israel (and plenty of other countries). We should, of course, also get protests against Hamas since they are doing a lot of shitty things as well. Instead we only get protests on one side. It feels so partisan. I think the major problem is people like things to be black and white. Israel is bad so that means Hamas is good. They can't just accept that there are two bad guys. I think people have a hard time separating Hamas and the Palestinian people which makes it harder for them to call out Hamas.

Frankly, I don't think we know the scale of abuses. The idea that Turkey has less than Israel is just an assumption. As far as I can tell there are significantly more eyes on Israel. When Israel does something wrong it is all over the news. When Turkey does something wrong it is often crickets and when it is reported it doesn't make it to the front page of HN like this post. Just upvoting an article doesn't take any real effort but people can't even be bothered to do that about Turkey or any other atrocity but when it comes to Israel they can.

Judaism is very different to other religions in some ways. It is not a proselytizing religion - it's not looking to convert anyone to Judaism.

It has certain supremacist beliefs - the Jews are the "chosen people" of God, giving them certain duties and certain privileges. But it's not necessarily a "Jews are better" line of thinking. Though of course many religious Jews may phrase it in those terms.

Worth mentioning that the majority of Israelis are secular, so the religious view on this, whatever it is, is a minority view in Israel.

No, not at all. OpenBSD may consider Rust all the time and it may still be not the right language for them.

Well, I'm not actually using ALGOL or Lisp every day, but ok ... :)

There's a variety of implementations there though - some seem to be talking about closures, and at least one (Rust) doesn't appear to support parent variable access.
As a random bystander I find your comments extremely hard to comprehend. It's not really the vocabulary, although it could do to be less lofty. I think part of it is sentences like this:

This sounds to me, and maybe I'm wrong, like you have some sort of pre-formed opinion about what Dang et al are doing, but are choosing to cast it in the lens of "can you be curious" as a way of avoiding just directly saying what you think.

It's really just short hand for rationalist debate in general, which is what the scholastics were engaged in. Once you decide you _know_ certain things, then you can end up with all kinds of frankly nutty beliefs based on those priors, following a rock solid chain of rational logic all along, as long as your priors are _wrong_. Scholastics ended up having debates about the nature of the universal intellect or angels or whatever, and rationalists today argue about super human AI. That's really the problem with rationalist discourse in general. A lot of them start with what they want to argue, and then use whatever assumptions they need to start building a chain of rationalist logic to support that outcome.

Clearly a lot of "effective altruists" for example, want to argue that the most altruistic thing they could possibly be doing is to earn as much money as they possibly can and horde as much wealth as they possibly can, so they'll come up with a tower of logic based on far-fetched ideas like making humans an interplanetary species or hyperintelligent AIs, or life extension or whatever so they can come up with absurd arguments like: If we don't end up an interplanetary species, billions and billions billions of people will never be born so that's obviously the most important thing anybody could ever be working on, so who cares about that kid starving in Africa right now. He's not going to be a rocket scientist, what good is he?

One thing most philosophers learned at some point is that you need to temper rationalism with a lot of humility because every chain of logic has all kinds of places where it could be wrong, and any of those being wrong is catastrophic to the outcome of your logic.
I thought you were joking for moment; it's easy to find the truth.

Unfortunately cab-over designs are impossible in the US anymore. They are nice because they optimize the cargo space / vehicle size ratio, with one significant downside.

Jeep had a cab-over design in the 60's called the forward controller, a very nice design. Then a few years ago the jeep R@D department remade this as a concept car, they took a wrangler chassis and built a cab-over body for it. In all honesty it was one of the coolest cars I have ever seen. However when asked if jeep planned to make it into a production car, the designer layed it out, pointing to the seat. "You see this, this is the crumple zone, right through the knees, there is no way to get a design like this through current safety regulations."

As an aside it is slightly strange that the VW bus is a "cab-over", with the engine in the back the cab is not "over" any thing. But that's language for you it does not exactly have to make sense.

Being located in the Middle East is their main mistake. Being a Jewish state in the Middle East makes it even worse.
Israelis can potentially vote out Netanyahu in the next election. But how exactly would you propose to remove Hamas from power without a lot of civilian deaths? Hamas leadership prefers the current state of affairs because it has made them wealthy by taxing the populace and embezzling foreign aid. They have no incentive to agree to a peace deal or allow new multiparty elections. There doesn't appear to be any realistic solution short of a massive, forceful intervention by a neutral foreign coalition.
I believe the point being made is that the rate of innovation over time would turn asymptotic as the acceleration increased, creating a point in time of infinite progress.
