If it's all sheet metal-esque pieces, where you could suffice with just laser cut features and/or simple bends.. then you should take a look at OSH Cut.

They have a fairly powerful platform -- instant quoting from uploaded design files, 2D/3D views, DFM feedback, good turnaround times, etc -- and the pricing isn't half bad for prototyping... but might not be as good for large-scale runs compared to bigger shops where you can nail down volume pricing discounts.

In Twilio’s case, it is “squeeze some profit”. Having revenue be greater than expenses seems like a reasonable goal for a business’s leaders.

The NYT prompted it with sections of copyright articles to get it to reproduce the rest of the copyrighted article. Which is pretty clearly deliberately trying to get it to reproduce a copyright article.
Yeah, but most SFF computers are considerably smaller than Mac Mini. Most are easily VESA mountable too so you can stuff them on the back of monitor to get them off the desk. The Mac Mini is huge by comparison and disappointingly even though the base M1/M2 models are basically half empty lack any sort of storage expansion. So while a random SFF PC can have a couple SSDs in the case, the Mac Mini needs external drives eating up space and ports.

I’m okay with my fellow citizens being selfish and protecting their livelihood. No one else will. “Whose interests?” You’re advocating for shareholder returns (labor arb savings->profits). Ain’t nobody coming to save us.

If we can mandate EV batteries be built in the US to get subsidies (Inflation Reduction Act), other protectionism mechanisms should be on the table. Otherwise, businesses will do their best to maximize profits in the market they’re offering in without any labor contribution back, extractionist style.

LOL.

The Suez canal is at ~30°N, while Cape Town is ~35°S. If anything the Mercator projection is exaggerating the visual distance of going around.
This is likely because of industry regulations around A2P (application-to-person ) messaging that had a due date of August 31, 2023.

The LLM <> Human Brain argument is so frequently used but makes no sense.

You can disagree, but legally speaking it will be interesting to see the legal strategy OpenAI takes with the NYT. I'm almost certain that OpenAI won't be using the human brain argument in their defense. Legally, claiming your machine should be treated the same as a human is a losing argument.
Any exec who actually tries to sell the stock high, and buy it low is a winner in my book.

Most just follow the crowd and do shareholder dilutive buybacks at nosebleed valuations.

If you can buy a long duration US treasury yielding more than twice what your shares yield, maybe stop to think before doing any buybacks.

The thing a lot of people here seem to still be missing is that "no evidence", coming from scientific authorities, carries an implication that there's no evidence.

But with science, we don't actually _know_ that to be true unless we look.

This is an important distinction because in popular culture, 'no evidence' seems to get a lot more headline space than 'we have an untested hypothesis'.

Over the past decade, it feels like the aspect of curiosity and hypothesis have disappeared from science, which has become much more institutionalized, compartmentalized, and formalized. It's 'peer review or gtfo'.

It is not literally correct to say there's 'no evidence'. We don't know! There could be! 'No evidence _yet_' at the absolute minimum.

It's also why George Hu left Twilio.

Because Jeff wanted to be a celebrity CEO, and it was to the detriment of the company.

All of Twilio's growth (as a public company) happened on George's watch.

I don't think it's a coincidence that well after George left, on Jeff's watch - they had to do 3 different layoff for a total of ~24% of their entire public company being let go.

Note: former senior level Twilio employee, posted anonymous for obvious reasons.
It's comments like these that make me more afraid of AI, because I notice how many people behave or reason like bots, following a script.
Realistically it's more of a rounded L shape. Once you reach terminal velocity, you're not getting any more energy.

Then all you need is to get really lucky and/or hit something relatively soft, like grass on some less-dense ground.
No, why? In case of an incident, circuit breakers are pulled, and the data isn't over written. Also, I am not sure if the CVDR is recoring while the plane is switched off on the ground.

By the way, the union isn't retrieving anything, the maintenance people are.
We already legally force it in almost every state on public roads because it's not about you, it's about everybody else minding their own business getting killed by your choices.

Doesn't take much FOD on the highway for your unbuckled body to slam into something and now you have a driverless vehicle. Also every else in your car should be bucked too so you're not bumping noggins.
Oh nice, I didn't know this.
I think the actual thing is that anecdotal evidence is actually quite compelling evidence. You can drive a car for days on end all on anecdotal evidence, successfully. It's just that it's less compelling than lots of anecdotes (data in aggregate).
Consider what happened after the Space Shuttle accidents. The vehicle was grounded for a long time (32 months for the Challenger accident). During that time the putative benefits of the launches were not being accrued. The stand down implies the value of these benefits couldn't be very large, given the expected number of additional astronaut lives saved during that time.

In general, it's economically irrational to spend large amounts of money making space travel safer for a small number of astronauts. It would be better to just say "this is dangerous as hell; we'll pay you $10M/mission (say) to justify the risk."
We've used SunPe before.

They have about a 10% full-rejection rate; so order at least 10% more than you need

Also sometimes they just mess up and get the part out of spec. Then just complain and they'll make it right

After getting more funding we switched to US based rapid proto shops that charge 3-4x, but have a better experience.

(DISCLAIMER: I only spoke to the ME guys talking about SunPe. I never used them myself)
I was an intern at GigaOM in 2009 (a popular tech blog that ran conferences), and my first memory of Twilio was going to the sales people and trying to convince them to give Twilio a discounted booth because I thought the product was so great. I remember the salesperson laughing and saying "this booth costs more money than they have in their bank account", but there was some extra inventory and we got them the booth.

The early people all just had this vibe of technical-but-not-complicated. It's common now, but at the time it was such a breath of fresh air. They were one of the first companies to pitch "easy of use" (compared to "look at how amazingly complex we are!"). I know this is super obvious now, but back then I had never felt anything like that.

All the people I met (I specifically remember Danielle) were friendly and excited... not in a sales-y way, but in a "I just love what we're doing and want you to, too" way. And again, I know this doesn't feel unique now, but that's because Twilio helped shape how we think about all of this.

I loved their attitude, such as this talk from John Sheehan (https://www.heavybit.com/library/video/runscope-ceo-and-twil...) about how they look at customers. I remember him saying they would fly to any little city that would have them and buy pizza and just hang out. They caught on early that there were so many tech people out there around the country who would become lifelong supporters because of little gestures like this.

Overall, a lot of what I can say about Twilio is super obvious now. But it's kinda like how people watch Friends for the first time in 2023 and say "meh it's a pretty generic sitcom". It's because they created the whole genre and shifted how everything thinks.
If we're playing the browserbench game, vivaldi / chrome are pretty close, I'd say within the margin of error.

Globally, these positions are not radical (sans Neo-Nazi). The average human is (strongly) opposed to American foreign policy, if not outright pro-Russian/pro-Palestinian.

That said, these topics are also great engagement bait and X does push them for that reason.

Yea sure

Basically when they made SPY it was such a new ETF (it was the first US ETF) that they didn't have a lot of good legal precedent to go with / copy, so they were kinda winging it.

What they did know was Unit Investment Trusts, so that's what they did. Initially they set it for 25 years, but quickly realized that was not a great idea, so they amended the trust agreement to have named people (sort of beneficiaries, except they get $0, so only legally). So they literally went around to associated people (lawyers working with the trust, etc), asked if anyone had babies (no, really), and then named those babies or little tiny toddlers in the trust. There were like a dozen of them, and if they all die, then SPY expires 25 years later or something. So SPY is dependent on the lifespan of a dozen-ish people whose parents or parents' friends are associated tangentially with the finance industry.

Here's an article from the SEC which mentions it in passing: https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1222333/000119312515...

(Now, back in the real world, this is definitely something that "doesn't really matter". SPY is so big and so important that this is a Thing That Will Be Fixed when (not if) it becomes a problem. So it's momentarily funny, and it's gonna cause some lawyers a lot of headache and cursing their ancestors in like 50-70-90 years from now, but people will move heaven and earth (congress, courts, etc) to amend SPY before it actually dissolves.

This feels too reduced in options and reasoning, to be honest. I would be surprised if any of those three options pan out, mid term.

To expand a little, I don't understand how the Houthis have support right now, outside of support that is specifically about destabilizing the entire region. Which is why I don't see your brief paragraph being enough to explain things. You do mention US support in there; who else is involved? And why?
This is not a web standard. Google wrote the specification and only Google have implemented it. It’s an unofficial draft:

> Editors:

> Matt Giuca (Google Inc.)

> Eric Willigers (Google Inc.)

> Status of This Document

> This specification was published by the Web Incubator Community Group. It is not a W3C Standard nor is it on the W3C Standards Track

— https://w3c.github.io/web-share-target/level-2/

Firefox doesn’t implement it either: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1476515

Apple raised a concern about spoofing which seems to have gone unaddressed by the spec authors in over a year: https://github.com/w3c/web-share-target/issues/109

This may yet turn into a web standard given more work, but please don’t hold up a Google spec. implemented only by Google as if it were a part of the web platform that Apple are late in implementing.
In this particular case it doesn’t seem very useful at all. The pilots had no idea why the door plug ejected. They landed the plane as per normal. They are still alive to tell us what they did know, which is probably nothing relevant.
So you want to say that phone doesn’t accelerate to infinite speed and doesn’t pulverize itself (or Earth) on impact? WOW!

The lainding page at https://github.com/moturus/motor-os explicitly says that both networking and file I/O are slow and have to be improved. The only claim is about fast bootup, and the number is there, and can easily be verified.

Where do you see any unsupported claims re: performance?
When you build these type of projects is there an actual consistent method to getting people to look at your work? Because from my experience it seems like any amount of feedback I've had came from freak lottery type events like getting covered in a magazine or something like that.

>What you’re saying here wouldn’t be illegal. What would be illegal would be for such an LLM to then sell the movie verbatim which is what ChatGPT does.

>humans as less than human and actually, totally, just statistical models

In what way are humans "more than" statistical models? The human brain and a sufficiently large transformer are mathematically equivalent in terms of what functions they're able to compute.

In any case, your assumptions come with zero empirical evidence. It's just wild speculation, grasping at straws, looking for a "good reason" for Instagram to charge me with a completely unwarranted ToS violation. We all know that is a blatant lie.
This will be cited by Boeing as proof that the failure of their aircraft wasn't that bad.
I have multiple chronic pain and health issues that can make extended social situations hard for me. Often it sneaks up on me.

"low social battery"/"spoons" doesn't mean you should avoid them or try and fix anything. What you should do is take it as a signal to not take offense and be patient if they need to leave suddenly, get distracted, or have difficulty. You can be welcoming while still making them some space to be tired or in pain.

My experience is that people who are lacking "social skills" aren't actually lacking social skills, they are lacking "social instincts". For people who have them, those social instincts work great 80% of the time, and most people just let them fail 20% of the time instead of applying critical thought to the situation (taking offense where none is meant or just miscommunicating).

Bluntly put, this tool is likely not meant for your consumption and your "lack of social skills" probably makes it much less necessary. You have to use critical thought every time you are in social interaction, so a reminder to do so is just signal noise to you.
Sounds really nice, I have to say. Is it the Standard range or Long range model?
If you have an idea of what you need to cache or can fit everything into the cache it's extremely effective.

Tho potentially just refreshing out of date data in the cache could increase effectiveness given that general assumption of the cache is whats in the cache will probably be used again.

I called it a periodically refreshing cache when I wrote one. Not sure if there is a more formal name.
Something I'm thinking about too (IPD 77).
The problem (in your case) about religion is when one side wants to convince the other side.

For example, I have personal "spiritual" revelations that I acknowledge nobody in their right mind would believe unless they witnessed/experienced something similar themselves. (And I make this claim in good faith.)

And this is actually fine. People hold different views because they have different experiences. And while communication can narrow the gap, it doesn't eliminate it completely.

I think it's an actually interesting thought experiment to suspend your disbelief about whatever you currently believe about alien abductions, and imagine that you actually experienced it yourself. What could you have said to convince people it actually happened? Is there a way to not become Crazy Carl besides pretending it didn't happen?
Learning more and more about all these air accients, there is so much that has improved about plane safety and how good it is and so on. But then there are some fucking baffling omission.

Its unbelievable how often the voice recording gets overwritten. This has been a problem for literally decades. How this is not solved is mind blowing.

This would be trivial to store, and trivial to upload. People have wifi in the plane but somehow we can't upload a few voice recordings and other flight data. (and before somebody jumps on me, yes its not 'trivial' but its a hell of a lot easier then about 1000 other things a modern plane does). And private as an argument doesn't' really work either.

The amount of valuable data lost is mind blowing. Not just in cases where things fail, but also in cases where everything goes right.

And then, somehow they don't have cameras that allow pilots to see the engines and other vital parts of the plane. Somehow passenger can fucking watch movie. But if a captain wants to know if the engine fell of the plane they have to send somebody from the cabin crew to run around and look out of the window.
This seems like a bit of a strange article to me. When we talk about being "slow", that is typically relative to a non-CGI technology, essentially something that keeps the code in memory ready to run. The reason CGI was "slow" was because 1) It had to start a new process for each invocation 2) When using tech that needed some form of warmup (I think PHP did??), you paid that for each invocation as well. In short, for some hobby or small setup it probably doesn't matter, and perhaps that is the authors point, but relative to an in-memory solution the situation probably hasn't changed much.
What does your landlord call your home?
The big question is how the table gets populated with the data and enables things like column based sorting all executed on the client side. (With the associated interactions with scrolling).

The point of recycling views is as row UI elements scroll off the top they are reused for those appearing at the bottom (or vice versa) which reduces system resources for these things a lot. This way the data table can contain 20 million rows but if the user can only see 100 the UI only pays the cost for 100.

This is standard practice in native app dev and I think is a good example for the case they are making. I would argue such a thing would be needed in the hypothetical NeXT type API of course.
