I can't recall him ever writing black on white that TV was a net negative for humanity, but the thesis of Neil Postmans Amusing Ourselves to Death seems to heavily imply it. It is - as far as I can tell - a pretty influencial thesis on these matters.
Exactly; one of the most valuable things federation brings to the table is the ability to choose which servers to federate with and which not to. I don't want Meta moderating individual users on sites they don't own.
There are not many network vendors. Check the link in the first footnote for an example how Cisco, the leader in the field, makes it difficult to deploy SSH keys. This is getting better. For example, Juniper (another network vendor) now supports SSH certificates.

I recently picked up a nice spec refurb on eBay with 32GB RAM for <$500. Also, really liking it and have been using it as my primary laptop for a few weeks. Fanless really makes a laptop more usable. Can have it on bed without worrying about clogging up the intake.

I've also used it to play World of Warcraft on the go again with no annoying fan noise. WoW actually has a native arm64 support on Windows, so that works very well.
Yeah I already do some combination of MPSK and MAC-based Security on Aruba AP-555 and AP-655 at home with a couple hundred IOT devices, OPNsense and FreeRADIUS. I segment by (vendor, device model) instead of /30 per individual device but that’s more setup convenience than anything (it’d be possible to uniquely dot1q every device, too).

I think SPR looks neat, it’s a more well-packaged version of essentially what I already do (albeit in a kludgey way), hence the curiosity about ambition.
What are you arguing? That we're can't know anything ever? That's not very useful in any kind of practical sense.

Figuring out what's going on from statistics isn't that hard if you understand how those statistics are being collected.

But they sure beat whatever you, a single person, happens to see with your own eyes. Your personal experience is an almost infinitesimally small random slice. It's just not statistically significant.

Statistics may always have error bars, but the errors bars around your personal sampling of one will always be incomparably larger.
It is Buddha telling the traders that they shouldn't trust whatever is told to them even if it comes from the so-called experts/gurus, family/friends, teachers, traditions etc. He told them that they should try to reason out the things being told to them, give these a try in their lives and only keep them if these suggestions/advice works for them.

Add to that, there’s a huge variance in device hardware, form factors, OS versions and API support for Android. As well as poorer UI APIs and harder to integrate C code (important to sharing cross platform libs).

The ROI on delivering a *good* experience for Android users is really low.
Are you referring to frontend mostly? Would a language like Elm be a good fit for what you're referring to in terms of organization?

One of the additional goals I have is to be able to write type safe APIs between frontend and backend similar to trpc (elysia framework).
You have to admit that the promise of true pass-through capabilities have been achieved with the Quest 3 (e.g., watch YouTube videos in a screen overlaying your vision while doing laundry), and that Apple's solution promises to finally make VR something that can work for general purpose computing.

Not that I don't agree with you, as someone who sold my Valve Index. I consider it to be a technology that takes a wild amount of development money and technology to basically take solved problems and put them in an interesting perspective in front of your face.

Also, I've seen reviews of spatial videos (Apple's marketing term for stereoscopic surround-y video capture) that describe them as eerily real, like you're living inside a memory. I think that may be an interesting use case (plus, unlike Apple's silly tech demo showing a dad capturing a video with a big VR headset strapped to his face while he watched his kids play, you can capture spatial video with a phone).
ARM is also a bit of cargo cult. Apple CPUs are efficient and performant, other ARM CPUs not so much. If it's really the ISA or other "secret" Apple sauce, which makes all the difference, is not completely clear.

The comment seems to assume that most everyone would agree that such sharing of the link should not be taking place due to copyright reasons. That is an absurd assumption to make, to everyone who has been around the internet for a bit.

It would be different if the commenter would be trying to make an actual, intelligently argued case why the link shouldn’t be shared in this instance.

That being said, one could instead link to https://web.archive.org/web/20080718084442/http://lucis.net/..., where the story is “reprinted by permisssion”.

I actually remember a couple of diagrams in a science book way back in elementary school, so we’re talking 70s here, showing the Big Dipper today and what it would look like in 50,000 years.

It was a kind of weird feeling as a young boy “seeing” change to something considered so static, and all the deeper considerations from that.
I doubt M$ can displace linux at this point for anything but consumption.

To produce value you need to get away from bloat, not embrace it.

Linux has it's problems too, but it's open; so we can fix them.

Thank you. I thought this was some reference to giving people config options that don’t actually do anything.
Note that what the author did could have been done in a purely passive way, just by capturing packages and seeing the DHCP responses others got. I don't think that qualifies as "hacking".
Wouldn’t it be more fair to compare a Chinese made Tesla to a Chinese made BYD? Surely, some Chinese consumer sentiment has been developed since they compete head on in the Chinese market?

> It's very common on Mastodon to block servers with a heavy hand, with huge blocklists such as "Fediblock" naming nearly every server on the network. This is a big problem, because it creates a fragmented network where people cannot communicate with each other.

This "problem" is actually a feature. The requirement that everyone must be able to communicate with one another is a fallacy.

An admin of an instance has a right to block any server they wish to block, just as a user of that instance has a right to move to another one if their instance's administration policy doesn't suit them. This includes Threads, since it decides to become one of the many other instances on the Fediverse.

> goes against the open nature of the Fediverse

The nature of the Fediverse is that it is decentralized and that you, as an instance administrator, own your instance, with all the ups and downs of that fact. Who are you to impose your own limitations upon owners of other instances and tell them what they should or shouldn't do with their own hardware and their own software?
It's worth remembering that Apple was testing ARM Macs a decade ago. They waited until they had CPU performance that was good enough to run emulated x86 software to pull the trigger.

I'd add a point three to the above: Apple's own in-house software was ready to go when they launched the new chip.
> I have a work laptop (government) that hates captive portals. It has a security system that won't let it connect using the local DNS.

Does the OS not pay attention to DHCP option 114:

This document describes a DHCP option (and a Router Advertisement
(RA) extension) to inform clients that they are behind some sort of
captive-portal device and that they will need to authenticate to get
Internet access. It is not a full solution to address all of the
issues that clients may have with captive portals; it is designed to
be used in larger solutions. The method of authenticating to and
interacting with the captive portal is out of scope for this
document.

Author here. I don't claim sshpass is "broken by design". I claim it is brittle as it relies on the detection of a password prompt. passh author has several examples here: https://github.com/clarkwang/passh/blob/master/sshpass-broke....

They wouldn't be PCs if they aren't on x86, just call them computers.
I decided once to recompile nano on mac os because it has some bug or some color missing. I don’t remember why exactly but I do remember a lot of trouble with dependencies … and then my impression was that this tiny editor - is a monster.

It is of course depends with what you compare but still it was shockingly bigger then I was prepared/wanted to see
> Threads must moderate users, not servers

Why does threads have to do that? Server blocks are incredibly common in the fediverse and last time this came up as a complaint people defended this religiously as being just how stuff works. The server I'm on has an incredibly large blocklist and it's not even entirely clear what it blocks given that half the blocks themselves are censored: https://hachyderm.io/about

This is exactly what one would expect to find if the fediverse can't agree on shared rules.
No Russian Army because he was born around 1914. Otherwise, of course you would find a lot of people with -enko last name in Russian Army in WWI. Not only Russian Empire controlled most of present-day Ukraine but also parts of Poland.

Most of that is probably attributable to being based on Kilo: https://github.com/antirez/kilo - a tiny text editor written by antirez who notably also created Redis. Antirez has a bunch of really interesting side projects if you dig into their github repo.
I actually suspect this is a cultural thing with Japan and feature phones being a pretty dominant thing. Maybe they just don't see the priority in Carplay.

Yes and no. The Android Market was only a few months behind the App Store (paid apps took another year) but when Android started to take off, lots and lots of developers started to try to come to Android in a big way and some even experimented with being Android first. But they all largely failed. Companies that actively invested in trying to be Android-first for a paid app have largely failed or been relegated to a very specific niche.

First, I think it was because the tooling was so much worse for Android than iOS, especially in the early years. And Google didn’t bother enforcing or even really outlining any HIGs for the longest time. It didn’t help that every Android maker had its own skin for the longest time (that is mostly over now, except for Samsung and some Chinese phone makers — and I would argue Samsung has a distinctive brand now that people buy their phones for their interface. They don’t want stock Android, they want the Galaxy Android experience).

But then even when you did have hit phones, like the first Motorola Droid and the Samsung Galaxy S (where the Galaxy S3 was a huge moment) and better dev tools, you still didn’t have users willing to pay for apps or even IAP. And it is hard to justify heavy-investment into a platform that people won’t pay for if your primary business is selling an app.

It also helps that iOS users typically have devices that are updated more regularly and that iOS devices are supported longer. And or course, there are fewer devices to test (though far more than there used to be).

The selection of magazines today at Barnes & Noble is much better than it was at Waldenbooks when I was growing up in the 1980's.
My kid had her first vomiting episode a month ago.

This morning she ate a large Hershey kiss and went to wash her hands and came back proclaiming "my hands smell like throw up" and having just read about this a few months ago I proudly educated the family on why emesis and hershey smell similar.

My day will only go up from here!

Merry christmas.
What about: this is now somewhat builtin into SSH, so you don't need an additional tool (or more accurately, this additional tool could be far simpler and more robust).
Merry Christmas! This was a tough year for me personally but I’m optimistic for 2024.
I suppose it fits with the rest of this article being rather disingenuous. Alex Gleason, Spinster and Neenster are part of a controversial group that detractors call "trans-exclusionary radical feminism." For better or for worse (the details of this controversy are not necessarily relevant), instances of that nature (and pretty much anything that runs on Soapbox) are defederated by a lot of Fediverse servers, and it seems that Meta for one reason or another has joined those servers. Gleason is well aware of this controversy.

My best guess is that Meta hopes to make itself appear more palatable to mainstream Mastodon servers by also defederating.
The Roadster used completely standard 18650 cells that were already in mass production.
The "moderation" line for e-mail has been drawn at spam/hacking/phishing. If the fediverse succeeds, then it will do the same. Servers that fail to police spam/hacking/phishing will be blocked, everything else will be allowed. If the lines are drawn elsewhere, each server will choose their own lines, there will be no agreement, and thus no ability to share blocklists, and the fediverse will be in name only.

There is a very good reason to see this path being taken, given what the Apple App Store disallows and new EU law with rigid speech requirements.

I gave police the license # of the truck that hit me, but they said it was an out of state plate so they said there was "nothing they could do." Translation being that they didn't feel like dealing with it.

The goal of VR is not VR:

- Ads that you cannot look away from

- Ads everywhere you look

- Tracking face muscle as you see ads, to build a model of your reactions and target you more aggressively

- Having more digital interactions that can be spied on

- Having more metadata about those interactions

- Seeing how you react to objects in digital environments and then serving you ads of those objects

As usual, the goals are spying and advertising.
> And even had it worked, the emissions still would have been significantly higher than just going with nuclear.

We have basically started the renewable energy revolution, which will lead world-wide to much faster replacement of fossil fuels.

Nuclear is at best stagnating in authoritarian surroundings (China, Russia, ...).
In the west it is struggling (US, France, UK, ...).

Get rid of it and invest the money into the much faster and cheaper growing renewable energy.

Why should we invest more money into nuclear? The industry has since decades not being able to demonstrate safe storage of nuclear waste, it has rising costs, there are no cost effective modern reactors, breeders are dead, the technology is still linked to military use, non-state owned companies are not able deal with the cost problems. All we see are rising prices and time delays. That's not the technology to get carbon neutrality.

UK:

https://www.fr.de/wirtschaft/atomkraft-in-grossbritannien-te...

Years too late, cost overruns, state owned EDF gets all the cost increases (-> French tax payer), Chinese investors not paying, time delays, above market prices, ...

If France would have not made Areva fully state owned, it would have had to close it because of the mounting losses...
Recently I tried to use an sftp script created with expect that ran fine on the command line, but the same script failed to run under cron. I made sure that all environment variables were properly set, but sftp didn't ask me for a password. I think it might have been an issue with the absence of a tty

sshpass didn't work, ended up rewriting the whole thing in Paramiko ... only to find out it doesn't respect the http_proxy environment variable.

That was not a good day
Ok. That is helpful, but ssh server or client? No way I would bother upgrading the server on all those boxes just to get to a point that is already working with sshpass.
I was wondering about this too. Maybe the geographical distribution of crime is changing, even if overall there is less of it per capita.
> Wouldn’t Saturday be the seventh cycle, given it is the end of the week?

Every 7th cycle would be the start of the week; the 6th cycle would be the end. (Think, for example, if you had a 2-day week; the 1st cycle would take you to the 2nd day.) But when the week starts is not universally agreed—I believe USians usually start it on Sunday, and Europeans usually start it on Monday.

I'm in the same boat with vanilla instead. I start with no dependencies and add some vanilla compatible libraries when needed. But when project size grows the friction makes me less motivated to continue. That's just what I know best and where I'm most comfortable since I control everything.

Unfortunately I don't have more specific suggestions, but just in case the verbosity of vanilla is a turn-off, I will namedrop Bliss.js.
i wonder how moore's law figured into the pricing - for a nuclear simulation, makes sense you'd want to pay a lot, or basic science or political things like apollo moon missions, but for weather or commercial applications, if you wait a few years might not be worth to pay for cray right away, though there's marketing aspect of how advanced your product is.. maybe this was before moores law though

> When Apple transitioned to Intel the PowerPC platform was way behind on a performance basis.

Apple transitioned after it became obvious that consumers were starting to prefer laptops over desktops, and Power PC (as well as Pentium IV) chips had problems with both power draw and heat.

As soon as Intel transitioned to Core, Apple transitioned to Intel.

Apple transitioned to ARM after Intel ran into the same issues with power draw and heat again,
Why? They aren’t legally binding. No reasonable person thinks they are.
The i3 came out before the model 3. Before the model 3, Tesla only had the model S (and maybe X?), which is not meant for mass market like the 3 was. Until 2017, Tesla simply didn’t have a mass market vehicle.
I do not know if it's what OP meant, but I am increasingly certain that a lot of things modern society should seek to eliminate, including sexual agression, are mostly domination/power trips. It's really visible in highly hierarchical domains like the film industry.
Drive by feel, isn’t this something everyone develops? You start to notice how fast things move outside the windows like trees, poles, lane lines. Admittedly, if stressed or excited then I tend to go a little faster but I check the speedometer then. Also I drive ICE and can hear/feel the engine. Guess that would be different in a Tesla.

Anyways, generally plenty of feedback to observe without needing to glue your eyes to a speedometer. Is this not a common thing?
> random numbers which are somehow interpreted as music

My initial reaction was similar. Nonetheless, I'm making an effort to embrace the diversity of what music can mean to different individuals. My only question to them is: are you genuinely moved by the music itself or do you "merely" intellectualize it?

That being said, is this emerging field of Quantum Computer Music solely focused on generating random numbers? I must admit I only glanced through the article, so I wouldn't assert this definitively.

In case the author doesn't know or willfully didn't post the reason Spinster is banned both on Threads and Mastadon; the server is a safe haven for TERFs who co-opt feminism as the cover for open seething transphobia disguised as criticism when communicating to a wider audience. Credit where it's due they're much smarter than your typical bigots and know how to hide it better to avoid bans.

The fact that the OP is out here defending them as just feminists is the a sign it's working. There is nothing in feminist thought that would earn them a ban on any major social network that isn't that "gender critical" nonsense.

Whether or not you agree with the position or not Threads calls what they do hate speech and so defederating makes total sense from their perspective.
There's a "thanks" section at the end of the README which links to it, from what I can see.
