The points of the Einstein tile all fall on a hex grid - see the illustration here: https://gametek.substack.com/p/the-einstein-tile

So in cartesian coordinates, there are √3 components that will always crop up.

But there is always an integer number of √3's in each x and y coordinate, if that helps - every vertex can be written as (a + b√3, c + d√3) for integers a, b, c and d.

Oh, and that goes for every vertex of every tile in the infinite tiling, not just for a single tile.
Yes. Unlike Google, the deals Apple were making weren’t for the purposes of undermining competing app stores
My grandma in her late 80s managed to learn a non-iMessage messaging app just fine, and she’s the most active one in my family group. If grandmas all over the world can use something else, your mom can, too. I’m sure she wasn’t born with the ability to use iMessage.
Yes, but in a weird way: Apple doesn't allow competition for phone manufacturing for their ecosystem, so the equivalent of "deals with manufacturers" are entirely internal. Fostering a phone ecosystem that overall has more competition has hurt Google here.
CLEAR is the substitute for the ID verification process.

There's two possible decisions the jury could make, and the jury is composed of a group of people who are chosen by both sides to prevent it from being a biased decision. Obviously not perfect but a lot better than you describe.
Everyone has use for understanding and detecting exponential processes. And the most important and easiest to identify part of exponential processes is the derivative, their rate of change is proportional to their value.

It is like understanding basic dice outcomes, everyone should know that since it is so basic to understanding events that happens in the world, political discussions and advertisements and products.
Most existing businesses would fail if they faced those conditions, so yeah, actually it is a great excuse.

You can honestly get around not needing arbitrary multiplication and division by just avoiding numbers that aren't powers of two. No oddly sized data structures, for example. It works well unless, of course, you're building a calculator.
The judiciary seems ridiculously slanted in favor of pro-business. That a bench trial would decide in favor of monopoly power is entirely unexciting & expected.

That a jury trial would decide in favor of consumer choice & be anti-monopoly quite reciprocally mirrors that strong anti-trust feeling Americans very widely feel, but which their government won't do.

I'm a Portland native, born and raised.

It was great up through the early 90s, and then turned into an absolutely bonkers shithole run by people too dumb and too extremist to be considered even progressive (I support many progressive polices and causes fwiw).

I basically was ran out of my own town when the politicians, police, and moonbat locals – many of whom were not born there – started thinking of Portland as some sort of weird test bed, layering on all kinds of experimental policies and governance. It hollowed out the downtown area, made it nigh on impossible to start a business, and made everything bonkers expensive.

I'm sad to say I had no choice but to leave. All of these decisions left very little opportunity to build a career (many of the businesses left) own a house (NIMBY 'urban planning' made housing unattainable) and of course the streets became as gross as the Mission in SFO.

It's like the worst of the Hippy Boomers were able to enact all of their worst policies in one small town and now it's a microcosm of their weird blend of laissez-faire social policies mixed with maximcally-extractive taxation and fiscal policies.

Third party stores do not have the same functionality as Google's store, this is one of the things Epic sued over, so I imagine it will factor into the remedies.
It's more nuanced than that. Apple successfully argued that the combination hardware+software experience of iOS and its app store is "the product", since people don't buy iOS for e.g. what bootloader it uses, but rather the wide ranging ecosystem experience and the apps that Apple certifies and verifies through a "feature" of "the product". Without such tight integration of the hardware and software, the product loses immense value to both consumers and developers.

Android being open actually made its own point of being "an OS with other products [app stores] running on top of it".
I may be wrong, but I thought we were discussing how many regularly-heroin-using people die early, not how many people try heroin once and subsequently become addicted.

You could build Software Fault Isolation into an existing compiler toolchain, and people have done it, but WebAssembly comes with an existing constraint which is why it's designed the way it is: a WASM file may be generated by an unknown or untrustworthy participant and needs to be consumed in a trustworthy context, i.e. served from a random HTTP server into a users browser. Therefore the WASM file format has stringent requirements and a strict validation algorithm placed on it before you should execute it.

So, you're doing a classic thing in verification, which is just writing a "checker" that implements some (known good) algorithm in the smallest and most correct way possible, and then using that to check whether much bigger "unknown" things are safe. The goal is that the checker is much easier to implement correctly than auditing everything by hand.

For example, you might have a media player with extensions (like foobar2000); traditionally extensions would be delivered as .dlls, because developers did not release the source. This would be a use case similar to the browser, where WebAssembly would be a good choice instead of random .dll files. They may not want to release the code, but you don't want to trust a random blob of binary code. If you trust your WASM implementation, you don't need to trust that the binary blob is harmless (it will just be rejected or forbidden from doing bad things.)

If you're not dealing with "random binary blob from potentially untrusted source", i.e. you are running the compiler yourself on some code you downloaded, and then running that code, then you don't really need WASM for this, because you could reasonably trust the compiler to uphold the security guarantees using SFI techniques. For example, if you wanted to make sure zlib was safe from buffer overflows in your main process, to reduce blast radius, a pure SFI toolchain would be fine. You can trust it works and then just compile zlib yourself.

But there's generally a lot more mindset and movement around WASM than anything else, so people use it for all of these cases, even cases where they control both the compiler generating code, and where the code is being run.
No question this is true. I do think that the relative immaturity of the these frameworks (from a secondary tools standpoint) is balanced out by the fact that the in-browser debugger is much closer to the actual code you wrote, something I wrote about previously[0].

Definitely more work to be done in this area though, and I tried to keep this post mostly theoretical for that reason.

and also a problem for my identical twins.

I just realized we thought we were being a bit cute by giving them names that meant the same thing, but in different languages. Now, I realize that if they translate their names into written Chinese, they better be phonetic translation... if they end up with identical names, same birthday, identical DNA, that could cause problems.

Just like all of the data the US took from Petrobras and claimed they needed it “just in case” and that they weren’t using it to benefit US oil companies.

“Trust me bro” is US policy at this point and it and the people that support it are an embarrassment.
Googling “MTA Tetra” turns up a pile of articles about the deployment of TETRA trunked radio for communications in the NYC bus fleet and Staten Island Railroad. And in those articles there’s some controversy about the spectrum and interference issues. I don’t know where else they use TETRA, just that they were cited in some of the original articles about the vulnerabilities.
This is the reddit title almost verbatim. If you have a problem with that, you better leave a comment in that thread.
You couldn't easily install software on phones before smartphone app stores; the app developer had to make a deal with individual carriers to allow it.
Lower frequencies definitely pass through material better and generally have longer range, but with mesh systems you only need half or a third the range, because you've got repeaters.

5Ghz still goes through a few walls, kinda, mostly, so you can use it for closely spaced repeaters, kinda.

Which also means the 2.4ghz part can be turned down a lot, because it's only got to go to the nearest repeater, if you even need a 2.4ghz link at all for anything but IoT.

None of this applies to typical HN readers though, who all seem to be running an HFT stock exchange in their basement and need 10gbit at 0.5ms latency, but for the rest of us if it's good enough for 1080p Netflix and 720p zoom calls it's perfectly fine.

Except when the printer disappears despite everything having a strong signal because of mesh bugs... then it's not fine.
i strongly disagree (or i am not getting your point)

first of all, protection of individuals is the only thing that matters.

yes, the current rules are a patchwork, but i don't see any alternative.

how is setting constraints on the language model going to help protect me from abuse by that model? for example how would such a regulation prevent facial recognition? a more limited model only limits the capacity of a facial recognition system, potentially leading to more false positives which would make things worse.

on the other hand, a rule banning facial recognition provides full protection, as does a ban on using machine algorithms to make decisions that affect a persons life.

AI use is either safe or low risk, or it is dangerous. those dangers need to be averted. as i see it, the EU does not regulate AI at all. it regulates the harmful effects of technology on people. you can build whatever AI tool you want, as long as you use it in a manner that does not hurt people. or is my understanding of the current regulations wrong?
This seems a bit discombobulated. You shouldn't be using a `<button>` at all but a `<input type=submit ..` for most of the examples. The search example shouldn't be changing it's name (query->q) for new practitioners following along, and should be using `<input type=search`.

In the `too-short-message` example where is the `not-long-enough` message defined?

Then we run off into microformats, they're great, but out of scope (and never tied back).

The button extension using custom attributes should be getting attribute `message` (not `type`).. but that's probably a typo. A potentially more reasonable attribute would be `title` since in many desktop browsers you'll get a hover tooltip (which might be beneficial, although for the contrived example perhaps not.. on the other hand, why would you want a multitude of alert buttons?)

And then there's zero consideration for Content-Security-Policy[0], one of the current reasons you'd avoid inline JS (`unsafe-inline`) in favour of script tags that can have `nonce-*` or `sha256-*` signed content.

Under your system she would've never decided to get clean then? Also dying much earlier than she would've had to and probably adding a bunch of burden to the health system. People chastice cigarete smokers for much less.
Tailwind has shown that, absent personnel with expertise and time to focus on a design system separating relevant concerns and/or absent tooling that can give you read/write changes, inline declaration of a somewhat constrained set of predefined options solves certain specific problems.

A lot of the related complaints -- including some in this article -- basically boil down to the old complaint about object oriented programming: "everything happens somewhere else" so what's actually going on isn't something you can read in one place, you either have to wind your way through the various scope/inheritance contexts to build up a picture of the code/rules in play, or you need to have tooling do it for you.

Or... you put it inline, mixing concerns, and eventually discover the tradeoff that comes with that choice.

I grew up in Australia, and mostly pre-911. Took my girlfriend and her daughter there from the US recently. Worst part of screening was emigration/passport checking, outbound, at Sydney.

They've never traveled abroad, so I'm bringing them with me. There's a bunch of open gates. Agent says "Use the three gates" to us, "so it can be quicker".

We do.

Her daughter's passport is being problematic.

Agents are being unhelpful. They're more interested in berating us. The same one who spread us across three gates speaks witheringly and condescendingly to us, "This is why you need to go parent - child - parent." Took every ounce of restraint to not say "Then why did you tell us to do something different a minute and a half ago?"

Said kid is an intelligent 16 year old. There was actually an issue with the equipment, not her.

Do you apply this logic to alcohol?

(And if no to alcohol, then what about marijuana?)
Oh hey, will you look at that.

I remember arguing with people for years about these cases.

The thing with the app store situations is that Epic/app developers only need to win a single time vs the app stores, whereas the app stores need to win every battle.

Either it will be through existing anti trust laws, or through new laws being created, or through the same thing happening in any major country in the world.

Because as soon as there is a single win, the whole app store system all crumbles and developers win.

I wonder what the excuse will be next over these app stores.
I think the ruling is more about saying Google did the wrong thing, not Apple did the right thing.
It's not the first time Google has been paradoxically punished for being more open than Apple. When you have partners and competitors then there are a lot of people to argue against you in court. When you forbid competition and partner with nobody then the people harmed are the theoretical partners and competitors you would have had, but theoretical people don't show up in court.
I don't get it, so no company can provide a walled garden? Or at least, not if they're successful? That doesn't make sense to me, why is that not an acceptable and desirable feature for some people?

You don't have to buy an iPhone, this isn't like a railroad or a telecom that owns all of the possible infrastructure. If you want a walled garden get an iPhone. If you want freedom with all that implies, go Android.

I do love how deeply & carefully Alex thinks about this stuff.
It’s a hugely expensive experiment that we are primarily paying for with local funds. Can the richer cities of Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, and Los Angeles solve our nation’s drug problem by throwing their money at it? Obviously not, and even if we were successful, our problem would just get worse (since none of these cities are closed).
Yes drugs should be legalized and regulated nationally just like Portugal did. But also we should absolutely unambiguously no excuses house and feed the homeless the end full stop we have plenty of money. It just needs to be redirected to doing something productive other than paying endless assemblies of bureaucrats competing with each other to virtue signal the loudest.

Because the reason people get hooked on to drugs is they have nothing better to do with their lives and they've run out of Hope but that runs straight into the effective altruist and effective acceleration as the gender here so it's not going to happen.

If the choice is between using HTML in JS (e.g. JSX) vs using JS in HTML (essentially, that's what HTMX is), my choice is unequivocally the former. Ignoring some very basic use cases, UI apps are all about state and interactivity. HTMX can somewhat handle interactivity (very awkwardly in my opinion), it offers nothing over React in terms of state management.
Looks like they took your advice?
This is probably where it is going. And yeah, it may cause some type of regulation of OS-integrated app stores and payment systems.
My opinion from the beginning

* Platform dependent messanger is a terrible idea, but perhaps anyone have right to implement legal terrible idea.

* Why the US people widely adopt terrible idea? It's terrible as designed.

* Although, since it's widely adopted in the US, it should be opened, maybe. EU won't help because they don't adopt terrible idea.

> Recreational use should be stigmatized and dealers should be handled as Duterte advocated.

Are you arguing that no recreational or unsanctioned use of any banned substance should be tolerated?

For context:

- MDMA shows promise treating PTSD. Currently Schedule 1 - total ban

- Psilocybin and other psychedelics reportedly beneficial for end-of-life care, notably in the case of cancer patients. Currently Schedule 1 - total ban

- Marijuana is also still Schedule 1 at the federal level

Schedule 1 is normally also a ban on research but luckily we've seen some improvement in this area. Why? Because the illegal market still exists, and people __do__ discover genuine medical uses for currently banned substances
