Then it's a good thing I'm not making that argument, but rather that "Having a Python with JIT, in many cases it will be fast enough for most cases." has very little information content, because Python without a JIT already meets the consequent.

Years and years ago I'd configure this stuff in FF, but using DDG effectively auto-configures it for any browser, exactly the same, everywhere, all I have to do is set the default search engine. And it includes some that I do use but probably wouldn't have bothered to configure on my own.
How long before some journalist peruses literally any fraud forum and finds people selling fully KYCed bank/exchange accounts for $200 and several people offering to verify an account with whatever identity you want? Also, the slow rollout of eCBSV by the Social Security Administration probably allowed a few hundred million dollars of synthetic identity fraud losses to occur that otherwise wouldn't have occured.

I'm thinking of packaging my brilliant insights into a $6000 per month "threat intelligence" subscription.

yes, and it’s worth mentioning the next step evolution after ssh was gitosis/gitolite to manage who has access to what repos on a single ssh entry point, by taking advantage of the fact that multiple authorized keys could be used for one ssh local user.

enter two companies to rip off and monetize gitosis/gitolite, and eventually rewrite them into their own service, and presto, everyone has forgotten that git is both free and decentralized

I want more people to have link blogs.

I have one in the sidebar of https://simonwillison.net/ which I've been running since November 2003. You can search through all 6,836 links here: https://simonwillison.net/search/?type=blogmark

I can post things to it with a bookmarklet. It has an Atom feed.

It's such a low-friction way of publishing. A lot of https://daringfireball.net works like this too. I also like https://waxy.org/ and https://kottke.org/ for this.

I'd love to see more of these.

Shenzhen labor is cheap only compared to US labor but it's already more expensive than several European countries now.

Seriously, manufacturing engineers in Shenzhen have higher wages than Ukraine and even Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary. And yet most electronic prototyping and manufacturing happens in Schengen and not Eastern Europe.

It's not unusual at all, almost every major European manufacturer has US facilities (often to get around import tariffs). It's common for software companies to do the same.
It's also hard to stick around when the website doesn't implement HTTPS and is insecure.
I’m mildly surprised that this isn’t an official product. I have half a dozen relatives I’d give “AirFrames” to if Apple made them or let a third party do it, especially if they had decent handling of Live Photos.
Total, and for L3/L4. But this was my impression a few years ago; Google has changed comp a fair bit since then (e.g. vesting schedule).
Apple Calendar server uses CalDAV. If you could see the data after authenticating it should be quite parse-able. You could also share your iCloud calendar with an account that is logged in on hardware you own like an old Mac, and use the EventKit framework to send copies of the data to whatever custom server you wanted.
To each their own, but I could not finish that book. Too much plodding coziness. It felt like reading something written by Cory Doctorow -- a lecture wrapped in a novel. But without any of the compelling momentum Doctorow employs to carry the allegory. Maybe it would have picked up a bit if I stuck with it, but I quickly tire of being hit on the head over and over with an author's novel-length not-so-thinly-veiled self-help message that perhaps should have been an opinion piece or short article.

at face value, yes. In reality, most indies are fine and will rarely reach 1M unless you had a breakout success (and Epic made it clear that you keep the first million, so it's not like you magically go from $999,999 to $950,000). Most AAA will negotiate heavily and not end up paying the 5% royalty. Likely some mix of a flat fee + a much smaller royalty.

Agree with SpaceX but not sure about waymo. Sure they're the most technically advanced, but I can't use their product and very few people can. And raising hundreds of billions has warped their incentives. The market has to be gigantic to justify the existing cap table. So they keep getting deeper and deeper into a perfect future product and fail to ship simpler intermediaries.

Someone like comma ai competes very well because you can buy it today and it'll make your drive somewhat more pleasant.
Last I heard, Apple announced (directly to 9to5Mac for some reason) that it will support RCS this year, probably to head off litigation. Google, on the other hand, still doesn't support RCS in Google Voice and has announced no plans to do so.

It's unfortunate that the article downplays resilience so much. It's entirely true that you can control your level of stress by making different choices, but for a given level of stress you can definitely improve how you handle it. The best way to learn is guided practice under stressful conditions, speaking from personal experience.

Organizing society to minimize harm is an understandable impulse, but it's really harmful to people's ability to cope when difficult to avoid or unavoidable stressors hit.
Came here to comment the same.

Any tool should start by asking "Could this meeting be an email, Slack message, a poll or a shared document?". Maybe even go further and ask why, so at the end of the month people can check if the reasons given really made sense.
Which is why Alpha Centauri is not our closest celestial neighbor as the moon is closer.

Which is irrelevant. In a world where the CD didn't exist, someone would have built a phonograph with Line-Out, which later would have been connected to the Line-In of a PC.

Assuming that MP3 wouldn't have disrupted the music industry if they'd have sticked to Vinyl and Cassette is ridiculous. Even today, Vinyl rips of music exists.

The core of this disruption was not in the process of creating the MP3, it was the ease of music distribution without any involvement of a music label.
Has any space company done it right first time around? I'd hope that the business planning wasn't so poor to put all the eggs in one basket.
Something this doesn't do that DDG bangs do, is let me append it, or even stick it in the middle of a search. I can just type it wherever my cursor happens to be, other than in the middle of a term. This comes up when I search something in DDG then change my mind and want to use a bang.
And yet I listened to a podcast once where a tax accountant explained that Instagram Search is her strongest lead pipeline.

At my dayjob we do women’s health, actual clinics with real doctors. Many of our users come from Instagram and TikTok ads. Because yes people will in fact choose their doctor based on a good Instagram/TikTok presence. In fact any time I mention the brand to female friends who live in our target markets they go ”Oh yeah! I’ve seen your ads on Instagram”. It’s never search, or a billboard, or a blog, or youtube, or even me telling them about it. They recognize us from Instagram and Tok.

It’s a wild world out there my friend. Makes me wanna yell at clouds every day.

Statements like this are obviously untrue for large numbers of people, so I'm not sure of the point you're trying to make.

But certainly it's true that there are both objective and subjective reasons for using a particular tool, so I hope you are in a position to use the tools that you prefer the most. Have a great day!

It's all fun until the parasites move in.

One of the magic bits of the earlier web(s) is that it was all new, participation involved an element of non-replicable self-selection, and the parasites hadn't had enough time to adapt and colonize it.

I'm not even sure if it's will be possible to have a community of "pseudoanonymous amateurs" in the future. It'll probably get swamped with AI generated garbage, like the crochet groups posted about a week or so ago. The human participants will get overwhelmed trying to figure out what's fake.

Honestly, like many kinds of forest, what the Web probably needs is a good burning, controlled or otherwise.

That sounds pretty far from being nimble and deploying rapidly. Not really a knock on the people doing the work — doing stuff in high stress sucks. But it's clear that they're intentionally deprioritizing a competitor.
>Do you still think your comment makes any sense?

Yes, because the nearest celestial neighbor is the moon and the nearest star is the sun. I don't see how Proxima Centauri is relevant here.

True. I didn't know anything very solid about them at the time -- and not much now, TBPH.
That's not what the article is saying. The article is saying that the ability to pretty easily create realistic fake looking identities with AI will undermine e-KYC systems that are popular with online financial services. This would make fraud less difficult.
It's not a competition thing, it's a size thing.

In this context he was (1) asked about what he thinks his legacy will be and has mentioned that it would have been different if you asked in 2013, and (2) is talking about being proud of his achievements/choices after his professional cycling career ended, during a period when he was sort of universally reviled by many people. So I can sort of understand why he says "no support." And "quit" in this context might mean "suicide," for what it's worth.

I wouldn't mind either.

Do you agree with me that Python is already fast enough for most cases, even without a JIT?

If not, how would a 30% boost improve things enough to change the balance?
It is an incredibly common refrain amongst experts in the field that it is a compression of the dataset.

Hard agree. People post links to websites with technical descriptions and little basic info all the time, and this is the first time I'm seeing a thread of people complaining about it.

5-6 years ago, when smartphones were new in India, ShareIt was most popular application for sharing files across phones. It's an ad-ridden piece of spyware. Because everyone were using ShareIt to share music and photos, and I refused to use it out of paranoia and a general dislike of intrusive ads, I got some reputation of being the "weird nerd".

Thankfully Google Files got popular later.

It's pretty easy to imagine how a bad application like ShareIt or TikTok may be required to be considered socially normal.

Interesting list- a lot of great points.

Two minor pedantic observations:
(0) I think adding lots of divergent colors should only be done to serve a purpose. In this case, imo the color palette used does not complement the numbering and appears to be used solely to distinguish different heuristics- for which there is no real need.

(1) Also (and this is even more minor), going down from #1 to #2 trains the reader to keep going down but #3 is to the right of #2 making it needlessly disorienting.
The rest of who? The fringe left who is simply adopting positions that were spoon fed to them? Yeah not terribly concerned with your wants, that's accurate.
That's exactly what companies do when they are faced with "companies of greater than size N must follow extra rule" regulations, although many here will say that is just cheating.
gas furnace can be over 100% now, using the condensation of the fumes to provide more heat to the water.

Anyway, is more efficient to use gas for generating energy and using that energy to heat places with heat pumps than burning gas on furnaces. If you can use the residual heat of the energy generation is even better.

I want to first state that I really appreciate the effort. One thing that I realized being an EM for a while and on a lot of simultaneous projects at <large famous tech company>, is that one of the major issues with meetings wasn't only aimlessness, or too many people sitting in it, but actually that there were some people (somehow most often the dumbest ones) that will go on tangents, or just take up all of the breathing room and waste everyone elses time.

To me, the problem is a mix of talent & culture. Our "people" team heard all of the feedback and always vowed to fix communications/meeting culture with presentations and notion guides, but nothing ever happened because the root cause is simply a combination of poor talent and bad leadership that doesn't uphold strong values around effective communication.

Tools like these are just slapping lipstick on a pig most of the time, because if your folks don't care, none of the ratings you've implemented or any of these "agenda items" are really going to do anything if people aren't actually abiding or care. It's like using Jira or whatever pjm software you have. It can be the most powerful thing, but your feature tickets are a direct function of how well someone writes them and cares about writing them.

The only time I've ever noticed a good meeting culture, is by having fewer people work at a bloated org, having more focused teams via a sane org structure, and less types of folks who operate on a premise that they're productive because they've attended X meetings and answered Y slack messages, and really serious leaders who can shut someone up and move on to something else and call a meeting early because it's truly over. If you don't have folks like these, no amount of gcal addons or plugins will fix this IMO.

I never said the plane would work in space, just that they would work like thrusters to change airplane direction. Just like a normal dual engine airplane would yaw if thrust becomes asymmetric, it could go up/down or roll just as easy if thrust is applied to push against any other surface.
git is great for non-centralized workflows. Sometimes your local copy lacks internet or authentication credentials ...

* git-ssh to "deploy" to a remote repo that is not on the internet or lacks authentication keys

* git remote with files (local) to push changes to a deployment outside of the development directory -- e.g. to /etc , /bin or another build location

* bare git repo for config, e.g. /etc or for dotfiles (~/) . Then git fetch to your proper repo for recording history.

It's definitely possible. The picture is statically signed, and the smartcard chip in the passport can perform dynamic authentication on top of that, proving physical possession.

What's missing for this to be an actual remote ID scheme is checking the passport for being reported as stolen, as well as authentication of the person presenting it (e.g. using a PIN or local biometry). Otherwise, anybody could wave your passport over a reader and open a bank account etc. in your name.

For example, Germany does have a (national) remote/online ID scheme on top of an ICAO-compliant (in-person identification only) smartcard-based ID card using a 6-digit PIN.
> where there is a proper, centralized, version online

Linux has a proper, centralized, version online. Still their collaboration workflow (they use the email workflow) is decentralised.

I think everybody uses GitHub now because they don't know the email workflow, and it's more convenient to have one account on GitHub than having one account on every instance of GitLab you contribute to. And I guess most people only know the GitHub web interface and don't really feel like using something else.

My point being that there are many reasons why everybody is using GitHub, but it does not mean that the PR workflow is better. What do you think?
