He's got many other examples of emails he gets from people. They find his name or whatever in some apps attribution.

It doesn't matter if there's legal grounds or not. Someone and some lawyer will make your life hell. They don't understand software nor do they care.
It will be horrifically stressful and potentially very expensive for someone.

Maybe it's better in the EU but the second the lawyers or the insurance companies get involved it will make everything awful.
Because lawyers and courts become involved. They don't understand software or anything related to it.
I had reversed engineered some ASCII file formats. While probably overkill, my background parsing simple programming languages (for which there are many good educational resources) was really helpful (in the approach I use). I tokenize, and try figuring out syntax structures from the order of token types, then from there, extract the information I need into my program's data representation. I'm not sure if this is the approach used by everyone else, but it seems plausible for someone with a CS/PL implementation background.

But first, it helps to have sample files to see recurring structures. Ideally, you also have access to software that generates these files. This allows you to deal with simpler files containing less information to reason about, make small changes within the program and compare the corresponding change(s) in the file.
This also where I landed with Brave as it seems to be working great for all of devices. Runs smoothly and I don’t really have a problem full with many sites on aggressive mode. I’ve had the sync’ing feature go flaky a few times, but over all good experience.

My big gripe with FF honestly is the lack for PWA ( progressive web apps) If they resurrect that effort I’d give it a shot. I’m not really interested in running another browser for that feature.

Also the brave privacy settings are remarkably better “by default” across all my devices. I’m sure Firefox can be configured to be hardened I just have other ways I’d like to spend my time. Heck I’d even pay for better option for all my devices.
Empowerment As Replacement For The Three Laws Of Robotics (2017)
This is the explanation that checks out with me. Add some impulse for Bush Jr to finish what Bush Sr started and you have yourself a ridiculous waste of resources.
I was baffled at the whole idea of letting a 6 year old browse the internet.
In my ignorance I assumed the blades would be wooden since that has a lifespan and needs to be replaced.

A steel base would last for all eternity, so what's the point of a wooden base? Wind turbines offset the carbon emissions in the span of a year.
That sounds equally like a downside to using Apple devices as a lot of open source self-hosted applications are limited in their respective iOS version.
The Elder Pliny would have been a small child when Jesus died. Not many 10 year olds in the historical record discussing religion.
In this analogy, water in a pipe is electricity in a wire.

Volts: Water pressure. The higher the pressure, the more forceful it goes through, but you can have a large or small diameter pipe with high and low pressures. But water can be highly pressurized without actually moving.

Amps: Water flow rate.
More amps means more water flowing through the pipe, per second.

Watts: Power of the water. Multiply the pressure by the flow rate to get this. Higher with more water flow (amps) and higher pressure (volts).
This is awesome. If everybody keeps canceling steaming subs, stops watching garbage, etc. we can literally force all entertainment companies to merge into one, unweildy, slow, and useless mega-beast and finally shake off videoized entertainment forever. It's retarding the species.
you should make it 40x48 and then you can run Apple II lo-res games on it like Myst or Another World
It may be the year of Ozempic, but not of the 1mg Wegovy. Still out of stock everywhere.
Don’t worry I wouldn’t have expected a collectivist or socialist to engage in logical debate. I’m fully self aware that when I challenge an opinion like you expressed that the classic response is that I dare “insult” your righteous assault on evil landlords and capitalists. The tragedy is that in modern times the failed socialist nonsense is still given any time of day.

In case people do not click because it says video, here is the video description:
"
Digital Identity Systems proliferate worldwide without any regard for their human rights impact or privacy concerns. Driven by governments and the crony capitalist solutionism peddled by the private sector, official statistics estimate that 80 % of the world’s population is condemned to use them by the end of this decade. These identification systems are a frontal attack on anonymity in the online world, might lead to completely new forms of tracking and discrimination and they are a gift to Google and other companies which are monitoring the behaviour of people on a large scale. In this talk we focus on how the recent EU reform played out, how the UN is becoming a central player in promoting their hasty adoption and which strategies civil society and hackers can deploy to fight back.

After over two years of intense negotiations, the EU recently agreed to their Digital Identity Reform (eIDAS). In this talk we analyse the result, what safeguards we can realistically expect and how our online and offline interactions might change because of this new European Digital Identity Wallet.
Other regions in the world are much further ahead in this issue and we will also try to learn from the experiences from India and Kenya. Both countries had unique strategies from civil society to fight back against the introduction of digital identity systems, focusing on interrogating their design, raising awareness, strategic litigation and civil disobedience post deployment .
Lastly, this issue pops up in many countries and is actively promoted as 'Digital Public Infrastructure' by global organisations like UNDP and the World Bank - often with little to know credence to privacy or local realities. This global trend is very worrying due to the shiny veneer hiding their dark reality of exploitation by local and foreign actors. We will showcase strategies how local actors have resisted and shaped the introduction of these systems with a combination of technical, advocacy, and interdisciplinary ally building. Our goal is to provide knowledge about how exactly these systems work, who benefits from them and what strategies could be deployed against them.

Does it support phases? If it has phases, absorb, hg grep --diff, hg fa --deleted, and revsets, that would be pretty much all I need :)
If flexibility is your #1 priority then usb-c never mattered. You could get mobility long before usb-c.

I'm saying if you want a fast machine then you can't beat a desktop for value or potential.
Yes, this tripped me up as well. I thought it was scoring the correct number of vowels/consonants out of those you entered, not the number of vowels/consonants you have identified in the solution. Guessing both "AA" and "AE" and getting the same result of "2 vowels identified" feels odd if one of those letters is not used in the solution.
> The clearest evidence that it was not an NSA attack is that it was not very good.

I suspect you are being sarcastic, but in case you aren't, you may want to reexamine your assumptions.

The colossal incompetence that is synonymous with government work doesn't magically stop at three-letter agencies. The FBI/CIA communication fuckups before 9/11 are just one famous example.

The idea that the NSA is staffed with "uber hackers" is a Hollywood fantasy. A government job working as a hacker is still a government job. Why would someone with that skillset, who can get a job at FAANG for 10x the salary, submit to the bureaucracy and monitoring BS that comes with working for an intelligence agency? I'm sure there are a select few who find this appealing, but the vast majority are just going the take the money and the free life.
And amazingly it was a part of the original Unicode 1.0.
I have several friends who are on one or more variations of this drug and have been losing weight successfully. Like TFA mentions, they've reported reduction in "impulsivity" -- eg less need for alcohol, less desire for gambling and, in one case, less desire for hookups/one-night-stands/sex.

My first fear is that these psychological side effects are going to be more impactful in the long term than any physical side effects.

My other and more immediate fear is that we don't know the full ramifications of what "reduced impulsivity" actually means. Does that mean you're going to seek out dopamine less? Does that mean you won't enjoy your hobbies as much? Does that mean you're going to be slightly less motivated to work on that satisfying side project or startup? Does that mean you'll be slightly less desirous to fix tha one extra bug which otherwise might be so very satisfying and will drive your project forward?
I think "visitors/users can edit" (not just the site admin) is also an essential part of the definition.

With grid-template-areas, you can use ascii art instead of specifying rows/columns manually. Though you would still need numbers if you wanted something other than the default spacing, which would be based on the content.
It’s easy to blame EV trucks for lower income and more hours spent by truckers for less product moved, they’re new and different from what the trucking industry has dealt with. But these issues are also driven by calcified incentive structures built up by decades over the assumption that you can fuel a truck in 15 minutes and go 1,000 miles.

For example, the commission truckers earn when they make a delivery incentivizes faster delivery. This incentive structure makes no sense when time is spent charging.

Assuming no technological changes, the trucking industry, state of California, and vendors can do things like install chargers at delivery points, pay workers a consistent wage, give truckers more freedom in what they can do during charging, provide more accommodations in trucks, purchase more trucks, hire more workers, adjust schedules, have more robust grid hookups for charging stations, charge customers more for denser loads, give customers discounts for having charging infrastructure. And yes, this is expensive, but so are natural disasters and our society doesn’t have significant problems paying to recover from those.
Don’t forget TVP aka soy chunks. This twitter account uses it exclusively in their recipes for meaty dishes, https://x.com/tofumasque/status/1725857452392898849 (videos)

I think the US is so meat-centric that seitan (for those who even know what it is) and tofu/soy are commonly seen as some sort of weirdo/hippy/vegan/activist food. I suspect the reason 90% of people who arrive at seitan who aren’t involved in a cultural that already eats it are arriving there because they went looking for a meat replacement, not just for an addendum to their American diet.

this is the core issue, essentially if you want to publish OSS code you now need to know you can afford a lawyer, because even if a court decides you aren't liable, getting to that point requires a lawyer.
Tech Survival Guide: How to Break Free from the Attention Economy's Grasp
I think the xenophobia of small town Americans is overstated. That said, it’s different because America is an individualist society. In a society where everyone is an island, it’s harder to explain why you care about someone with a different culture moving next door. By contrast in more collectivist societies, everyone is expected to follow the same norms and behave the same way, so people with disparate cultures moving in does actually create an imposition on everyone else.

An interesting story about Japan. I know someone who is ethnically Japanese, but who was raised in America and moved to Japan as an adult. He remarked he gets a lot of flak because he looks like he should know the rules, but doesn’t. It’s really not about “xenophobia.” It’s about having an orderly society where everyone knows the same rules and adheres to the same culture.

I have 3 of these that I bought new back in 2018, that I'm considering selling in the Houston area.

I haven't used them in 2 years, but coincidentally, earlier today I thought about setting up a new workstation that will use all three. So this comment is to gauge if there is any interest.

I'm an Air Traffic Controller, and I discovered these monitors because we used them in a simulator. At the time, the screens we used for controlling traffic were 2048x2048 (that our tech-ops said cost 20k), but recently we switched to larger rectangular monitors (also Eizo).

Disney has admitted they aren't trying to please Star Wars fans. Amazon has admitted they aren't trying to please Tolkien fans. Fans already consider these new developments of timeless classics to be non-canon no matter who technically owns the rights. It'll be a lesson taught in brand management for eons, until the heat death of the sun - don't acquire a property which is only valuable because of fans, just to discard the very thing that gives it value - the fans.

They truly will learn their lessons, or somebody else will.

These are neopixels though right? So the pixel itself can maintain a brightness, you just send it update commands.

No, I don’t think so. In that case it would be just as accurate to describe it as roof cave in disaster, as I am sure a great deal of people died when their roofs fell down on them.
But who cares? If you grind up and bury fiberglass, you’re sequestering carbon and melted sand. I’m fine with this. People intentionally burying carbon do so to celebration when they’re doing it on purpose and selling carbon credits.
PSA: Dont get a mac with apple silicon if you need/want Virtual Box https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads
Facebook's web repo which includes all the PHP and JS for facebook.com and a bunch of other sites is one big massive repo. For development you claim out a server that has a recent checkout of the codebase. Right after claiming it it syncs in your personal commits/stacks you're working on, ready to rebase. You access that machine on a subdomain of any of the FB websites. As far as I remember it was something along the lines of 12345.od.facebook.com, but the format changed from time to time as infra changed. Client certificate authentication and VPN needed (that may no longer be the case, my info is 1y+ old).

There was an internal search provider (bunnylol) that had tools like putting @od in front of any FB URL to generate a redirect of that URL to your currently checked out On Demand server. Painless to work with! Nice side benefit of living on the same domain as the main sites is that the cookies are reused, so no need to log in again.

Synthetic Sentience – Can Artificial Intelligence become conscious? [video]
I looked at all three URLs you provided. They demonstrate AI expertise, but to what degree is impossible to know without your specifically stating your contribution. How does your AI expertise relate to Ruby/Rails SE work?

You claim DA skills -- in what industry?

You have an engineering degree? in what field??

If I were hiring for a ruby/rails SE, I don't see anything that anything that is relevant. I would be concerned that you are "too senior" for a junior SE role.

The only way to break the deadlock is to target companies where you can demonstrate domain expertise and have a number of specific, quantified examples of your contribution which would also benefit your target in comparable situations.

Arbitrage and speculation seem to be the usecases that survive (and thrive) under such conditions.

I find those to be worthless usecases to society in general, but they are usecases.
They already funded MMO's like EverQuest through Sony Online Entertainment / Verant Interactive, Inc. This was to facilitate the research for live battle "simulations" using the same technology for "theater operations." When I was researching this, I found a surprising amount of DoD/DARPA related funding into 3D graphics, and games.

It kind of gave me an uncanny valley vibe of irony, in the sense that my mind went to a place of a cosmic joke that the Demiurge was an AGI born out of these efforts and it's been live for who knows how long. But yeah, that's just my crazy side on the second part...

Yes, you can get a lot more hardware for your money than buying the Apple Logo.
Anyone can also buy it from Nevada from a website that has the word peptide and the other word sciences in the name. A few popular youtube people have pointed out the same, although they can’t say the name but they do show the label. If one is concerned about it, compound pharmacies will provide it with a prescription from an HRT clinic.
If I did understand properly, in code paths with many branches near from each other, it would help to hint the predictor about which ones are not worth it.
why not overlap the subtitle excerpts for complete selection options? may be able to have very confident results too. if removing blob conversion speeds it up, is it now fast enough that doubling the table's length is worth it to improve quality? could go for triple overlap?
I think there is another factor limiting blade length which is blade tip speed which needs to be below the speed of sound by a bit.
China's really speedrunning destroying their own economy. Turns out the west didn't need to do anything at all to curb China's rise: all they needed was a little help from Xi.
Do my Rubidium references (yes, plural) count? They're not quite as stable as a Cesium-based 5061, but I believe they use the same principle so they’re technically also atomic clocks.
It's the same for wireless protocols too. Transmitting with less bits per symbol makes the whole packet longer and potentially more prone to interference. Transmitting at a higher symbol rate can often reduce the amount of packets lost which is counterintuitive.

Wow, that’s cool! I checked for The Netherlands aswell and it turns out we’re also growing our own bananas [0] with the first harvest being two years ago! It seems to be a research initiative to find new ways to cultivate bananas that are not susceptible to soil molds.
> Eating local is only efficient and sustainable if you're sticking to what's in season or keeps well. Long term refrigerated storage, water-sourcing and indoor growing to extend seasons can outweigh the costs of freighting.
Agreed! I think that’s why it’s so hard to just call farmers markets inefficient, though. Atleast, without research into how efficient they are. There’s so many arguments that can make it sound logical that they’re either more or less efficient than a grocery store. It could go either way.

Hmm. Indeed that makes a lot of sense to use wasm instead. Let’s table the language aside for a moment. What data format would you expect to be spit out by third-party models? Is there anything generic enough to store both b-reps, f-reps, and whatever might be suitable for nanotechnology?
I find the hate towards MacBooks interesting, and more so in the comments than the actual video. After having used a lot of computers, both laptops and desktops, I genuinely believe there are no better laptops than MacBooks that bring build quality and software quality, and last but not least the integration of those two to the table -- albeit for a hefty price tag.

A Windows laptop that you convert to a Linux laptop is simply a inferior machine in my eyes and my metrics: worse trackpad, way worse battery life, worse build quality in general (although Razor's laptops are quite good), worse hardware integration (biometric auth). It's a tinkerer's dream, but not the optimal productivity machine.

Linux belongs on the server, maybe desktops, but certainly not on a laptop IMHO.

I say this not to be a Apple fanboy, but rather to acknowledge that Apple's products are not the cancer that some people make it out to be.
I think what LocalH was referring to by "rightful free access" was that copyrighted works are supposed to fall into the public domain after the copyright term expires. The public is entitled to unrestricted access to works whose copyright terms have expired. Excessively long copyright terms impeded that access.

In the US, copyright is the means to incentivize people to make creative works. Copyright is a limited-time exclusive right. When that right expires, the First Amendment is no longer constrained by the Copyright Clause. (I wrote more about the Copyright Clause in a different comment [1].) In other words, sharing and modifying public domain works is protected by freedom of expression.

Copyright is a social contract. The author receives: exclusive copying rights to the author's creative works. The public receives: the author's creative works at some point in the future, though the author (or rather the rightsholders, should the author partially, temporarily, or permanently give the copyright to other people) can set licenses for certain people (such as buyers and remixers) to access/copy the works now.
