> Yeah it is known that one should use a library for authentication.

A library, yes, but a library is not a service. If you self host your auth stack with trusted primitives from a well known crypto library, you're much better off than if you outsource the very security of your platform to a company that has time and time again shown that they are incapable of preserving the security of even their own employee's personal info, much less anyone else's. At this point it would be arguably criminally negligent to rely on them to protect any sort of private information for your customers.

If you self host, someone needs to personally pick you as a target and find a flaw you made to get into your system. With Okta, they in all likelihood already have access. I know this industry loves learned helplessness (especially when the solution is “you don’t have to know the fundamentals, just pay us every month and we’ll do them for you!”), but come on.
Gdrive still has a concept of files and directories. It is kind of primitive in that way.
I had rack mount equipment running in my house for a while; not sure how he sleeps with it in his bedroom. The best part of the "cloud" was getting all those boat anchors out of my life.
The part about "enriching the military industrial complex" is certainly a conspiracy theory though. The MIC has only ever shrunk in importance in the American economy, and giving people their used products is like the opposite of enriching them.
> Marijuana cannot be legalized without an act of Congress.

Marijuana can be rescheduled without an act of Congress; what is on the table is not full legalization (which, AFAIK, could also be done within the executive, because IIRC drugs can be descheduled by the same process for rescheduling) but rescheduling from Schedule I to Schedule III.

And by "on the table", I mean the first step -- FDA recommendation to DEA -- has already been done.
Mindustry has other ways to donate directly if you choose. The dev obviously thinks paying steam a cut is still worth it in increased sales and marketing.

I search for a lot of messed up stuff.
People often cite the 2019 McMinsey report as evidence that racial diversity improves company performance. However, when you dig into the details Asian representation is positively correlated with company performance, but Black and Latin representation is negatively correlated. The Asian positive correlation was so strong that on the whole, lower White representation was positively correlated with company performance. That's the supposed benefit of diversity, but media outlets rarely report on the negative correlation of non Asian minorities.

To be clear, I don't at all endorse the idea that Black and Latin representation negatively affects company performance. This is a textbook lesson of "correlation does not imply causation". These disparities are reflective of differences in education outcomes and employment between these groups, not that hiring an otherwise identical Asian is better than an equally qualified Black or Latin candidate.

$300M seized means the actual money victims lost over time is likely multiple times higher - wouldn't be surprising if it's closer to 10x than 2x.
I got a Bluesky invite a few weeks ago, checked it out and … there were absolute crickets there.

Most posts I found had 0 comments, 0 reposts and at most 1-digit likes.

For a social network, it might have all the technology and protocol-work in place, but to me it seems to be failing pretty hard on the social bit?

Am I missing something? Are there certain topics, demographics or high-profile “influencers” thriving here?

Anyone here using bluesky and thinking it’s working out nicely?

Under current federal law the President doesn't have the authority to simply order rescheduling. There is a process that must be followed and substantial changes to that process would require an Act of Congress.
Eyeball Planets May Exist, and They're as Creepy as They Sound
When I see this type of marvels I stare at my mobile phone and think about the amount of wasted power. Such powerful hardware should be able to let me do a lot of things and instead it doesn't.
Trying not to sound as sensationalist as the original story, but this part specifically had me infuriated:

"Hunter has had less luck. Of the news stories, he said: “They’re infuriating but they’re comical if you have the facts… I tried to give the facts to KIRO, I tried to give the facts to Daily Mail, I tried to give the facts to Business Insider. I would send them actual proof of everything, and none of that mattered. They just wanted that [online] engagement.”

How do we solve that problem? Educate people to instead read properly informed news sources that still have journalistic integrity? Hold the journalists to a higher standard and call them out when printing sensationalist stories? Even if they are called out, the damage is usually already done. The press is supposed to check society, but who checks the press?
None of the stuff that worked was his idea. The difference between Musk's companies and more tradition one is professional managers as Steve Jobs said are bozo's.
I also find that I often experience the modern version of "no one gets me" quite frequently, which is that none of the algorithms really get me. Maybe I am interested in too many disparate things. Probably the worst offender here is the YouTube algorithm. YouTube really really believes I'm someone who wants a never-ending stream of Joe Rogan, Ben Shapiro, Jordan Peterson, etc. I have no idea how YouTube became convinced of that, and why it won't give up on the idea. I don't click on the videos, When they pop up in my shorts I immediately swipe past them, I can't even figure out how the kinds of videos I do watch would be connected.

I would actually love to have a good algorithm that would scour all of the content of the web and recommend just the things I would like, but all the algorithms that exist seem bad at doing that.
The concept of a file itself is pretty interesting in itself though, as this buffer that lives on disk and is referenced to indirectly. In Linux, everything is a file. In Emacs, everything is a buffer, and then maybe a file.
Don't sift, search (with noun phrases and keywords and limiters where needed) for something you currently want to find now.

If you don't know what you're looking for, wait and do something creative until you do have something to search out.

> I am firmly of the opinion it is not possible to develop an antibiotic guaranteeing the bacteria will not be able to gain resistance to it.

I think the main approach to prevent antibiotic resistance is coming up with a way to prevent bacteria ever coming across a low dose of the antibiotic. As long as we make sure the dose is either huge or zero, antibiotic resistance shouldn't evolve.

Unfortunately, humans aren't a well controlled lab experiment - and there will always be people taking a half-dose, or flushing the antibiotics down the drain where they get diluted and suddenly trillions of sewer bacteria get exposed to a low dose and suddenly start developing resistance.
Bleaching something is an active measure. How well you clean depends on how long you let the bleach work, how thorough you are at getting full/consistent coverage, how frequently you sterilize the surface, etc.

This can be a passive way to achieve sterilization, much like silver nano particles and brass surfaces have been shown to passively kill bacteria, except without metal working/precious metals/oxide layers that make those solutions less scalable.
No one should go to jail because the police are "fairly sure".
I'm assuming the intended application of this is to kill bacteria colonizing a biological host. In order for that to work, the treatment needs to be selective in what it kills. If human/animal/plant cells have any mechanism to avoid being killed by the antibiotic, eventually the bacteria will adapt them.

I wonder if more generic searches would have helped, because this seems like an issue that's neither specific to Google nor likely something that's likely to be protected any time soon. Think "Domestic flight TSA regulations" instead of "can i bring a gas mask on a plane".

Arguably Google's quick answer box contributed to people searching this way, though I'm sure it was a two way street of people searching that way leading to people expecting real answers to this type of query - Google would have simply responded to user expectations.

Either way, DDG and Bing likely wouldn't have fared better, and I doubt you'd get very far with Tor before hitting endless Captchas - meaning generic (or at least less immediately incriminating) searches are the only realistic solution in the near future.
I was typing too fast, lol, I meant to say "the prices at point of sale have gone up significantly more for some people." Especially in places that used to have a competitive grocery environment. I think people tend to mistake their personal experiences for broader trends.

Of course I agree with you about how CPI samples are taken and that they are representative of the market as a whole.

tl;dr: I agree with you, I'm just floating a theory as to why some people may have significantly different experiences on a micro level.
“I tried to give the facts to Daily Mail” is just a deeply funny statement.
Because the article discusses one case.
>>> Another thought on the subject is how many small charges were simply because the police were fairly sure the defendant was up to some other crime, but were unable to make a court case over it (due to difficulty of evidence etc)? It may be that it was hard to prove the accused was doing X, but the bag of weed in their pocket was undeniable...

Then don't prosecute them. It's supposed to be hard to convict people.

Fixing the experts for a layer might not work since all experts fire almost with equal probability. There are small variations by topic but they are consistent enough to be captured with a simple linear classifier. I believe this happens due to the load balancer loss which forces the model to pick all experts with equal probability. However, what you're saying is a great direction for future MoE's. Can we train MoEs without load balancing so that it is possible to quantize/prune the non-relevant experts more aggressively? We haven't had any major open source MoE's because, as far as I know, they are not straightforward to train, but I expect this to change.

> Z80 having any suitable primitives upon which to implement preemption.

In general the only thing needed is an external interrupt (which the Z80 has). All but the cheapest deeply embedded 8 bit micros will have one and therefore can support preemption.
Fentanyl kills by overdose.
I'm writing this from California, so I was using "neighbors" expansively to mean Americans in general. My experience in California has shaped how I see the argument. I grew up in the Midwest and heard a million reasons why weed was a ticket straight to hell. Now that I live somewhere that it's completely legal and normal for your average person to possess and use it, I can see that, literally, none of the dire warnings I'd been taught have come to pass.

California legalized weed, people who wanted to use it started admitting that they use it, and... that's about it. Nothing bad happened. If anything, I know people who switched from alcohol to weed in the spirit of harm reduction, and they seem to be better for it.

> > It was the way the pilots described the unexpected behavior of the RL model.

> And you chose to quote it, and to make the point that it is not the sort of thing we want on public roads - as if there's the slightest hint in the extensive testing of these cars that the apocalyptic scenario you chose to introduce to this discussion was anything but hypothetical and hyperbolic FUD.

At some point there were numerous reports of cars using driving assist steering into the dividers at highway offramps. I believe there were in fact some some real accidents that happened this way. That definitely was unexpected behaviour and I would argue one could even qualify it as the car acting like it had a death wish so I don't think the OP statements can be qualified as hyperbolic FUD.

Now you're going to argue that these were early incarnations of non AV systems (despite the name), but I think they do illustrate how the systems can behave in unpredictable (and dangerous) ways when they encounter novel situations. That's why I commend waymo for not following the hype and keeping the environment they operate very restricted.
One that we have in production over the last day has been averaging 197 watts over the last week. So that's probably the upper limit of what I'm going to see on mine for my home lab use. I'll have lower use, and I have 8 7.2K discs where that has 14 10K. I don't have my home machine DRAC set up right now.
No need to apologize, my comment really wasn't very clear. Have a nice weekend!
I'm guessing mushrooms and/or some sort of stimulant.
> a $500K/year lower bound for 10-12 years

I don't care if you are talking about top talent here; that is an insane thing to say. As a lower bound? What percentage of software engineers / AI practitioners / data scientists are making $500k/year? 0.1%?
I've preferred it to Mastodon so far. Way too many abilities to it; BlueSky is just Twitter but open and not much more, which really, is all I want anyways.
Calling it “for optics” is downplaying the severity of the situation. The reason presidents rely so much on executive fiat is because our actual legislative system has paralyzed itself with partisan politics, gerrymandering, and the filibuster.

Obviously it’s intentional that it’s hard to pass things, and legitimately controversial things should be difficult to pass (and shouldn’t happen by executive fiat), but there are 2nd and 3rd order interests overriding what should be the 1st order interest of effective legislation.

Among these 2nd/3rd order interests: not looking bad to your party, making the other party look bad to their constituents, not upsetting some specific demagogues, not losing personal or party power at all costs, winning dunks in social media, looking good for the camera, ensuring that no third party could emerge, ensuring that if the other party gains power that they are incapable of exercising it, etc
>It's like a car that's advertised as a general-purpose car that can only drive 80km/h.

Trying to get the analogy: it can 'only' do 80, or there are lower speeds possible and 80 is the max?
I wouldn't mind a car like that...to and from work at the moment the most i need is about 45 tops.

Why should that be banned? It's part of the transaction cost. People don't seem to understand that renting is, or should be, a voluntary transaction between a tenant and a landlord.
I learned C in the late 80's from K&R 2nd edition and an Amiga-specific book I no longer remember exactly, back in middle school. I learned sooo much from books back then and just playing around on my own. There's so much more to learn now, but it's also so much easier to find information...
The unfortunate part of the 13th amendment was the addendum that slavery wasn't slavery if it was part of the prison system. Which had the effect that those who wanted to continue the slavery system figured out "Oh, we'll just criminalize being black, and then we're legal again!"
I think your description is unfair.

Yes, I think that, say, Mc Donalds has all the rights to bombard me with ads when I enter their "restaurant". Even ads for, say, cars, if they get some deal with a car-factory.

So, yes, I think a company has the right to bombard me with ads when I visit their premises, even if I've taken actions to avoid seeing those ads. If I don't want that, I'm free to not enter their premises (i.e. visit their websites)
I am as layperson as they get on this subject matter, but I would think that even if your statement is true, perhaps we can get to the point where bacteria need to evolve so much to overcome new antibiotic approaches that they lose some of the properties that make them harmful and transmissible, i.e. it becomes harder for them to exist outside of the host, penetrate the host's defenses, etc. At some point a bacteria would need to seem so like a human cell or beneficial bacteria that it becomes non-harmful.

When I'm in concentration mode for 8+ hours a day in tech, the last thing I want to do is fuck around with a misbehaving home lab. I used to have a server and switches and NAS and firewall etc. But got sick of troubleshooting unnecessary complexity. Now I've got a NAS and a desktop. My tinkering years are over and I just want things to work. That shit loses it's charm over time.
With your clustered Ceph Promox, does Ceph there provide the storage to your VM's running in Promox?

And if so, how resilient are the running VMs to the (temporary) loss of a Promox node?

Asking just because I'm trying out some clustered Ceph Promox stuff currently, and with 3 nodes (so far) the VMs aren't coping well the loss of a node. They seem to either freeze, fault or hard reset (after a while) when it occurs.

I'm going to try with 5 nodes next and see how it goes. Am new to both Ceph and Proxmox, so it could also be something to do with my current newbie-ness. :)

Since the product always contained salt, perhaps they now add less salt to compensate for the salt present in the preserved tomato? Is tomato sauce getting saltier?
I'd love to see legislation requiring prominent advertising of any changes to a product that buyers might see as a negative. E.g.:

- Smaller product quantity, when previously sold at an apparently similar quantity (secret shrinkflation).

- Changes in food recipe (secret food enshitification).

- (maybe) changes in nutritional value or flavor for farm produce. I'm not sure how this is possible or practical, but I'm thinking about claims that e.g. tomatoes taste worse and are less nutritious than they were a few decades ago.

- Changes in non-food products that worsen performance. E.g., SSD makers switching to cheaper and slower components after initial reviews have come out, but still retaining the same product name. (secret non-food enshitification)

An existential threat to us is, as the name implies, a threat to our existence. Unknown domino effects which may or may not have changes so large that it causes massive swathes of humans to die off, forever changing the future of our species, seems to fit that description.

Everyone should doublecheck sensationalist claims given the well-known incentives to lie, exaggerate, etc.

That said, cutting off contact with an under-age relative over a couple hundred dollars does sound like pretty miserly behavior. A lesson in the tenuousness of familial ties in the face of stubborn ideology, if anything.
My ten year old gets an hour or so per day. On weekends, an hour after lunch, and another hour in the evening. But if she’s deep into some game, she gets half an hour extra.

I'm wondering about the same. Vast majority of "apps" would work just as well, or better, as a website. In fact a lot of them do, e.g. this very site.

I think a part of it is an "app craze", i.e. organizations want "apps" just because "an app" is something fancier and totally different than "just a website". I have done an "app" like this (implemented as an optionally installable website).

Also many people, including many developers, also vastly underestimate what can be done with contemporary browsers, so they assume that "a native app" is needed if you e.g. want to take a picture or read a file.
Sorry to hear that. Beyond loss of life, what I’ve seen is an incremental loss of human potential.

Weed smokers tend to lose motivation at larger life goals. Short-term memory issues affect their ability to get to work on time, pay bills, take care of their health, etc.

Yes, there are some who avoid these impacts; yes, alcohol is also bad. But there are a bunch of 40yo wake-and-bakers out there who don’t realize they got caught in a trap. Their life, not mine, but it’s sad.
