No you don't. I set one show to play with original audio years ago and since then all of them have followed that setting.
that's quite a restrictive view of how much the internet changed _everything_ across the planet, from culture to work
Sad to say that you are completely right, for the longest time after being on gentoo for a long time I switched to macos for a few years, and was using gentoo prefix, which is vastly superior than Homebrew. I added patches to fix upstream llvm to work in gentoo prefix on macos almost a decade ago [1]

I finally met someone at the GSoC reunion that wanted to get me maintainer status, but I never got them to follow through. He had already warned me that it would be a complicated task to accomplish. I kept mentioning prefix needing binaries as well. Imagine if gentoo prefix had been as easy to install packages as homebrew on a mac.

It's sad, but gentoo is a good example of why an open source project that is technically superior, cannot survive inferior solutions without good stewardship if they disregard some basic end user quality of life features. I would argue that that is also what killed opensolaris/illumos(which is basically on life support), because the people in charge could never get past their elitism and decide that for community engagement the kernel build needs something more simple that 100 layers of nested incomprehensible makefile/shell spaghetti.

Well, they're the same at least insofar as they're government-granted monopolies.
Application devs don't need to know the spec, but someone in the committee having a hard time of knowing the language in full is an interesting fact of how complex the language itself is.

"Why do you think that a programmer has to learn C++ by reading the standard?"

If your application seg faults due to an ill type deduction caused by `auto`, why did it fail? What kind of type deductions auto covers? Experience by trial and error will hardly help you here.

End user developers will acquire that knowledge probably by reading digested material from experts either focused on language tidbits or working closely to the standard (Effective C++, Effective Modern C++, blogs, etc.), the root source is still the spec, the more complex the spec is, by transitivity, the more complex is anything that comes out of it.

I guess the bottomline is that we agree the language is complex and I'll leave it at that.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t allay the complaints of driving up the cost of housing for locals. I’m not sure if this is a problem for bigger cities, but there’s been increasing criticism by locals in ski towns and resort cities of remote workers coming in with much higher incomes than local companies can provide and consequently pricing out locals from housing.
Can we please start calling this kind of visas for what it is?

Rich people visas are cool, but don't help actual nomads as simply everywhere they exist they put up a prohibitively high threshold on an income (that you can't even prove documentary half the time).
Hmm, just did it again today and I got the same color as yesterday? It’s past 8 AM here, when does it change?
Almost all of us derive income from copyright. Only some of us derive income from patents.
On top of that, the English subtitles don’t match up with the English voiceovers.
Yes. Xerox is one example of a company that succeeded with their marketing campaign in a lot of the world. I understand that in Australia one used to xerox documents, but now you certainly photocopy them. In India they still xerox documents.
The first nuclear build out in the US was already in deep trouble before TMI. Nuclear costs were exploding, demand had stopped growing at the rates assumed for the nuclear plans (this helped drive WPPSS into bankruptcy), and with the passage of PURPA in 1978 grids were opened to non-utility suppliers.
Cool! I would be interested to hear what Apple Silicone specific features this uses? Is there some sort of image processing feature that Apple CPUs offer that are being leveraged?
The project is quite cool. I found myself tweaking for some good amount of time.

But the thing is it does not demonstrate that complexity can come from simplicity.
To make a 'life' there are 8 parameters to be modified across a range and 'fine tuned' to get some tangible stable complex structure, all to be done by already conscious beings ( Users anyone? ). So much for simplicity
This isn't that novel though. They have the GPU set up to do cache snooping from the CPU without a protection mechanism[1] to prevent the CPU from stuffing dirty writeback entries on top of it for the GPU to see. That's not subtle or weird, and it doesn't represent a new category of attack. It's just a routine security whopper.

[1] On Intel, the IOMMU provides this. But just a cache that was aware of range-level protections (i.e. only allowed you to cache CPU-visible RAM from the CPU, etc...) would have worked.
>That's great, but it's been proven these smart systems are very hard to roll out, no matter how much you try to say it's cheaper

I thought the opposite was proven. E.g. When Germany produced a lot of variable output electricity they varied aluminum smelting rates accordingly. That was highly effective and not generally expected.

There's tons of low hanging fruit like that but if you listen to carbon or nuclear lobby propaganda theyre insistent that the only thing that can solve the problem is more lithium than exists in the entire world.

The big unknown are the tax implication? The article should clarify what it means, at least vis a vis Korean tax agency.
Yes because running NFLX, by comparison, is probably not as "fun" of a job as running a traditional media org. Imagine being in charge of IP you watched as a kid, mingling with famous actors & directors .. it's very sexy. It's a ticket to a different social life. A lot of them are larger than life personalities than come from media families.

Netflix by comparison is like running any other FAANG. Pays well, but you can live a pretty rich-but-anonymous life still. I had to look up who was running NFLX these days, and one of the co-CEOs doesn't even have a picture on his Wiki page.
Thanks. I can confirm that this works. Compiling a new project no longer segfaults, and `Mix.install()` works in `iex` too.
Corporations are made up of people and groups of people do very much have feelings.
whatsapp is just... better...

Mobile networks have dropped the ball for years on functionality. (it's 2023 and most mobile networks still won't let me make a call or send texts from my laptop!).

And across most of the world, mobile networks still charge $10/minute or more for group video calls... Forget about the fact video calls are impossible between some networks and others too. The UK's largest network, EE, says on it's site "Video calling isn’t available direct from EE at the moment.".
The game "second life" - it's really a neverending story :(
Weird, I couldn’t tell at all since they both have converged on the exact same format.
This is easily remedied.

Usually, the cost of doing something the wrong way as a programmer is minimal compared to say- a doctor or a rocket scientist. There's not really a governing body on how to do things, as in actual engineering- and most of the work we do is under the constraint of time. saving time means deferring decisions to others. I personally find that there's a lot of value in sifting through and examining the myriad of opinions on a given subject, and coming to your own conclusion, but in the professional world, this a luxury for but a few.
"New" to your kids was always something pre-existing, though.

"New content" is something that did not exist before.

I'm willing to bet that any given adult has a huge trove of extant material that would be interesting if they could only discover it. But the cult of the new opposes that.
Gentoo was the first distro that I grokked. The way they walked you through the build system (honestly can't remember if it was official docs, community forum or what) was just the right balance of teetering on the edge of everything crashing and burning, and learning the deep secrets of how an OS actually works that it kept me intrigued for years. I ran it all through college but then got jobs at non-nix (un-nix?) companies and it gradually faded. This seems like a great development but if it had existed when I was exploring Gentoo, I might have taken the easy way and learned much less.
it's not even the same concept and doesn't even came close to the use case for google voice. But knowing google PMs, I think you are right!
The author is Spanish. I've noticed lots of ESL people using CGPT to polish their English, or to write their thoughts in their native language and translate them, and it all ends up coming out with corporate-robotic accent.

Doesn't bother me too much though, just a side effect of the English lingua franca. I bet my ChatGPT-translated Chinese has a rigid formality to it as well.
That seems like an annoying change but if your phone doesn't go voice over Wi-Fi or your carrier doesn't offer that, it's time to change. It's nearly 2024. I travel a lot and use Google voice as my primary number but always have T-Mobile backup that can be used with WiFi only.
I use Hushed app. It gives me a phone number that I can use for WhatsApp and to receive SMS confirmation codes from various archaic services that still validate you thorough the insecure SMS. https://hushed.com/
I used to go as a kid in the 80's with my dad every year. The Hara Arena where it was held is no more. It was closed up for years and was finally torn down a couple years ago. But the Hamvention is still going on at a new location.

"Ridiculous", really? Does my statement meet the threshold of ridiculous?

Funnily enough, I've never seen a funny legal brief.
A couple of years after Google Voice split out from Hangouts and, while there were plenty of VOIP options, they all sucked for use as a personal number (even Google Voice kind of did to be honest). The latencies for ringing, not being accepted at ever more places, the weird connection quality and delay issues, one way audio issues, and so on were just so rampant compared to a "traditional" (now also really just data, but more integrated into the transport system) number. Also so many places started to block the use of VOIP numbers it was becoming hard to use the number anyways. If they hadn't already there was no guarantee it'd still be a valid option 3 months later. Maybe there is some whizz bang new VOIP service that actually kicks ass in all of these marks and someone will recommend it but even if they did I'd have more expectation it's a false positive report than a real positive.

If privacy/secrecy via obfuscation is your #1 criteria and not a nice to have then I'd just go with an enterprise cloud VOIP solution like RingCentral because they'll have real support and it's their core (and very successful) business, not another something that'll disappear in 2 years anyways.

If privacy/secrecy via obfuscation was just a nice to have and you really liked it for having the web interface then RingCentral (and I'm sure others) have a PWA and you can still go that route or you can try a sync tool like Beeper. I went the latter route as it gave a significantly better call/texting delay and quality experience to give up the obfuscation but the other cost is your phone has to be connected to the internet for the messages to relay through Beeper.
> the ?? would help a little bit

that's the only point of the operator.

given: a = 0; b = 42;

then `a or b` and `a ?? b` give two different answers, but take the same number of characters to write.

> just explicitly check for nil

1. I am lazy and 2. I am explicitly checking, that's why I picked `??` not `or`

Because copyright has enough fair-use bypasses that it actually doesn't impede people that much, and where fair-use doesn't apply (e.g. in music with remixes), there is a relatively working and reasonably fair and accessible system that's been established for many decades. It's not perfect as cases like the TV show "Cold Case" demonstrated that wasn't ever distributed on VHS/DVD due to licensing issues involving the soundtracks [1], but these are rare. And even if you stretch the boundaries of the law too much, unless you're a large-scale commercial infringer, it's a few hundreds to a few thousands of dollars in fines and that's it.

Patents however? There's reports about lawsuits just about every month or two here on HN [2], more than enough cases of small shops getting sued left and right - and even corporate giants like Apple are virtually defenceless in patent courts. Software patents make the issue even worse.

On top of that, patents are useless against China. The only thing Western companies can (and regularly) do is to prevent the sale of infringing stuff in Western markets, but no one in China and many other places of the world gives any fuck about Western patents.

Another issue - particularly in pharmaceuticals - is: even if you patent a molecule, say an insulin derivative, you don't have to patent and thus reveal how you produce the stuff. That means that even after the patent for a specific variety of insulin has expired, a generics competitor still can't readily use that patent because the precise steps of manufacture are still proprietary. Meanwhile, the original manufacturer just makes a tiny variation of the insulin molecule, ceases production of the old one, and charges "new medication" prices from insurances because it's technically not the old medication any more. It worked in the past for simple, chemically synthesizable molecules, but it doesn't work for the more complex stuff that needs GMOs as a production/harvest vector.

The pirate party does not appear to have a candidate running in my area.
That's a very good point. A "CTO" can mean any mix of managerial, leadership and technical responsibilities.

It is my assumption that a CTO is usually coming with technical background already except when he/she is a cofounder and they got technical domain as a result of division of responsibilities. But I am suspicious of startups where none of the cofounders come from technical background.

That leaves managerial and leadership. IMO, if you are a CTO, managerial is something you can hire other people to do for you as your technical organisation grows and leadership is something you should really be focusing on.

You can have flourishing technical organisations with the CTO being a poor manager but a good leader but very unlikely with a CTO with good management but poor leadership skills.
What do you mean by "randomly"?

Like it asks you to re-validate it every week or month or something?

I haven't encountered this at all. Honestly it sounds like a bug (try deleting and reinstalling the app for starters), or it's flagging your specific number as high risk for some reason.

I share your frustration but there really needs to be more evidence that it's either a widespread problem or an intentional policy change. (Because it's also hard to see why it would be intentional, and also it would have been implemented on the site as well if so.)
I don't know whether the software side is there or if the box, but it certainly seems like https://gaming.tobii.com/product/eye-tracker-5/ ought to be able to do that.
It's definitely relative to some degree, X-Files is new content to people of a certain age.
Everybody wanted to control the entire pie, when in reality almost all of them would have been better off just licensing their content to Netflix and not worrying about streaming distribution
For privacy and compliance reasons (read: “oh boy wouldn’t wanna get sued, eh?” reasons) we actually don’t snoop into the message body much. Hooray, good job on not doing the maximally big brother thing for once, MS!

My hot take is that this prolly won’t last because every org descends to doing a creepy level of data collection eventually so I have a textbook on privacy preserving ML downloaded for when we join the “surveillance but we found a way to make it technically legal” squad. We haven’t done that yet though.

What do you mean by tiers, exactly?
Agree with all of this - I had exactly the same feeling going from DOS to Linux in the 90s and wondering where the proper TUI apps were.
My great confusion is why docker —-platform linux/amd64 is so much faster (almost native performance) than x86 UTM VMs. Can docker somehow leverage Rosetta?
Absolutely not if that "other person" also have a google account.

This will associate the phone number permanently to your google account as well. And remove from the other account (and you cannot switch phones between accounts in the same 3month period... don't want know how I know this)
Let's say that I, John Doe, created and published an original kids cartoon about Goatman, a lovable half-goat half-man who has wonderful woodland adventures full of charm and wit. It is truly amazing and garners love and success, as shown by the Kickstarter funding for my 2nd season of Goatman blowing past the goal and getting 10x the funding I needed. This success attracts Disney's attention.

In our no copyright world, you say that they will publish their own "Disney's Goatman" alternate 2nd season and market it heavily, and then sell merchandise to make back the money (because they won't profit enough off of tips or Patreon or Kickstarter or just charging for it because people can just "pirate" it). My first question would be, why would they even bother with publishing a show? Why not just release the Goatman merchandise and profit directly without spending the cost of making their own show. They could even just advertise John Doe's Goatman, it would be cheaper. But even if they do publish a "Disney's Goatman", why would anyone who liked "John Doe's Goatman" watch it, given that what they liked is John Doe's writing and creativity? And if "Disney's Goatman" was actually really good and popular, who was actually harmed by that? Do you think people will like "John Doe's Goatman" any less? There would be less money going to the 3rd season Kickstarter for "John Doe's Goatman"? Furthermore, in our current world, what really is stopping Disney from releasing their own original kids cartoon about Mangoat, a lovable half-man half-goat who has charming woodland adventures full of wit and wonder? Sorry, but it just doesn't really make sense to me when I think about the details.
> I don't think API copyright is recognized, even in the U.S.

That was what every single person thought right until Oracle won a suit against Google for use of the Java's API.
The article is about virtualization, not emulating x86-64, so I'd disagree it's dancing around that. (Also, Windows and Linux have their own x86 emulations - if you boot virtualized Windows/ARM or Linux/ARM, you can get to the native emulation functionalities)

Are they building or are they "building" (as in, talking and planning and not actually building.)

India is famous for talking about nuclear. Building it, not as much. India gets 2x as much energy from PV as it does from nuclear, and the PV is growing rapidly.
If only technical reasons would be important when choosing architecture then microservice architecture would not exists. Its killer feature is team independence and strict separation of responsibilities. Any technical advantages are dwarfed by technical problems it introduces.
Next you’ll tell me there are optimization settings other than -mtune=native
I fit this category perfectly when I was staying in Korea over 10 years ago. I ended up being there on a tourist visa on and off for a few years. I never had any trouble as a white foreigner but did have a hard time making Korean friends, only because my Korean was fairly basic and I didn’t work in an office or go to university. However, everyone I met was very accommodating, whether I was in places frequented by foreigners like Hongdae or Itaewon or in my now partners hometown which is small enough that most Koreans couldn’t place it on a map.

I walked into the government office a couple times and tried to find a path to a legitimate visa and was told each time I couldn’t do it. I found that the longer I was staying, the less comfortable I was with my status. If there was a path for me to be a legitimate resident, I may have stayed longer than the 3 years I was there.
Apps and window managers understand full screen. With my wide monitori often want full height, but not full width this needs manual adjustment to work. Windows can sometimes be made full height (tripple click), but this somehow always seems to get the wrong width

Oh, my wife of 18 years - I can tell when she's got a new co-worker or some new person to talk to when I'm not around. She starts using words that isn't part of her usual vocabulary.

People think "meltdown" means Chernobyl. For those who don't know, a nuclear meltdown means the fuel inside the reactor overheated, (possibly permanently) damaging the reactor. It's essentially happened at some level three times in the United States: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_meltdown#Core_damage_e...

A meltdown essentially means an expensive remediation.

A Chernobyl style event in the west is extremely unlikely due to reactor design as well as the containment buildings. The closest western equivalent, Fukushima, did have a core meltdown. But the spread of radiation was actually caused by the spent fuel no longer able to be cooled, causing the rods to be exposed to air, which generated hydrogen, that then exploded. While a disaster, it wasn't Chernobyl style where the open reactor pumped out radiation continuously until it could be contained.
The sad thing is it obscures the real issue people were bringing up with Columbus - they said the world was much larger than he thought so he would starve and die before getting to the indies.

They were right, too, as the size of the planet was pretty accurately known. He just lucked out that someone had left a continent for him to run into.
If they used snowy 2 instead of a powerwall the comparison would look way too favorable and it would invert the point.

Powerwalls are expensive even by battery standards.
It never worked this way for me, but I always use their Apple TV app.
I also liked that it started with a little story about the frozen turtle slowly coming back to life.
This happens a lot here in Brazil. Some brands are so famous that they are synonyms of some products, e. g. Gillette (razor blade), Bom Bril (steel wool), Insulfim (window film) and so on.

Xerox is a curious thing here. It is a so strong synonym to photocopy that almost no one remembers that it is a brand (at least, I don't remember seeing in person any Xerox device). It is so strong that xerox also means the shops were the photocopies are made.

Just place Google Maps over São Paulo, search for "xerox" and see what happens
