This protocol seems unlikely to pass IACUC (Institutional Animal Care and Use Committees) at US universities. That is the usual check to animal experimentation in the US. Biggest primate work in US is behavioral stuff, we stopped doing grisly primate things after

In general, IACUC exists to review protocols that use animals. The burden of proof is on the scientist to prove that work cannot be done by cell lines, and sometimes it results in less animals or redesign to use cell lines. If you do end up using animals, you have to prove make sure your protocol is taking proper care of them. This includes pain meds, heating pads, post surgery care, etc.

They are not a rubber stamp committee, I have seen labs shut down over discovered animal abuse and put on pretty extreme probationary measures at major institutions.

It was in fashion in the 2010s to move animal experimentation especially for non rat/mouse stuff to China through partnerships.

AMA if you've any IACUC/animal experimentation questions, I worked in that field for ~10y.

Strangely IACUC as a concept was formed closely after the Penn primate experiment video leak...

In my anecdotal experience Bluetooth reliability has increased DRAMATICALLY in recent years. I don't have nearly the same number problems I had with devices years ago. I have several devices now that are rock solid reliable as far as audio goes.

Old devices such as my 2015 Subaru Forrester are still… garbage as far as Bluetooth usability goes. It’s not worth even trying.

agree with the other comment - I made my resume in HTML / CSS, and the most reliable way to generate a PDF is just Chrome's print to PDF. I tried weasyprint and wkhtmltopdf and they either dropped elements or changed the layout.
I prefer Logseq. It does not need plugins for basic things (PDF annotations). And is completely opensource with transparent development on Github. And I find its workflow much better.

This also helps for when an exploit is found, like say the issue with Firmware 4.51 and lower.

It's super easy to fix then - cook up a new DRM and encryption scheme (or modify the current one) that, without access to the internals, is impossible to figure out. Doesn't take much - probably just a generic encryption key that gets swapped out. Then, roll that out in an OS update. Finally, make new games use that encryption scheme and thus that firmware level.

Sure, games that run on 4.51 or lower are cracked. New ones? Uncrackable, until a new jailbreak is found.
I would check your environment for interference on the 2.4ghz range. I'm running Bluetooth gizmos galore and don't have aby problems.

Well battery problems but that's a different issue.

So many of these "technological solutions" end up being "spherical cow" type things.

RFID might speed up checkout at a library by a small fraction, but you still have the issue that most patrons check out a book or two, you still have to check that the DVD is in the case either way, and the self-checkouts aren't backing up anyway.

(Similarly most libraries have given up on fines, at least around here - the overhead of dealing with them and "scaring" patrons away was much worse than the people actively "stealing" books.)

Not to even get to barcodes (like CVS files) are quite interoperable, and you can relatively easily change one barcode system to another, just my importing the data. RFID readers often need specific RFID tags and it locks you to a vendor (who often promptly goes out of business). Over time things like that get noticed.
I suppose, but as you say jailbreaking is a prerequisite to emulation since we need to extract the games, and possibly the firmware. In the absence of a "god mode" hardware exploit like the Tegra X1 bootrom bug that's also a moving target because newer games will need newer firmware to decrypt, requiring a steady supply of new exploits to keep breaking open those new firmwares.
Remote work % in industry not correlated with excess productivity growth
I was looking for this comment. Hard agree. Every time I need some casual compositing tasks, or some transitions, Blender's never done me dirty. Every time I pull my head out of the ground and go hunting for another FOSS compositor, I always end up shrugging, "whelp, nothing really all that better than Blender, and I know Blender, soooooo . . "

EDIT also, since last I used it, the Blender Compositor has gotten a lot better. Dang.
This being the first midwest winter I've had a Model Y: there's parts of the experience that are really bad, and parts that aren't as bad as I thought they'd be.

I don't have a place to plug it in most evenings, and it is parked outside. So, worst possible conditions. The amount of power the battery just loses overnight doing nothing is extremely predictable; if its -10-0F outside, it will lose 2%. 10F-20F, about 1%. 30F+, you won't notice drain. That's manageable.

The door SUCKS. Its so stupidly bad that its startlingly obvious no one's fair-weather skin at Tesla in sunny California has ever experienced low temperatures. If the door is iced over, it takes "I'm going to break this" slamming force to break the ice and get the lever exposed. When you do, if the window seam is also iced over it won't recede below the frameless door when you open it, so you inevitably damage the trim every time you open the door (unless, maybe, you kept a blowtorch around to deice the window?)

A friend with a Mach-E (long range) took a ~140 mile trip the other day. Left with 90% charge; made it to the destination with 4 miles of range left. -15F outside. IIRC that car should have something like 280 mile range. It might not have been as close if she could have stopped at the one non-Tesla DCFC (Electrify America) between the two places, but none of the stalls were functional. Just a horrible situation all around. You can't rely on Ford, Electrify America, anyone; you're sold a car on promises that did not materialize, and of the few people I know who purchased non-Tesla EVs, all of them are buying Teslas next.

That being said, I think its a grass-is-greener situation, and while Teslas are better in almost every way, we're talking about very core aspects of the technology shared between brands. Nothing has put me more in the "BEVs are a fad" camp than owning a BEV. This isn't the next generation of propulsion. At minimum, the sector needs: double the raw battery capacity standard; triple the roadside charging speed (~500kw) standard; including when its cold (supercharger @~0F won't go above 60kw; that's ~90m 20%-80%); ~20x (yes, twenty times, maybe more) the number of roadside DCFCs; and regulate/litigate the hell out of these DCFC networks who take federal clean energy funding (EA was founded by VW as part of their emissions scandal restitutions. They do not deserve even a drop of free market capitalism.)

None of that feels likely to happen at costs comparable to ICE, even with considerable technology advancements. Which is why I tend to feel that by 2035 we'll look back on BEVs as a weird little fad in automobile history; interesting for fleet vehicles and warn climate metropolitans, but a really poor choice for the rest of the country.
And that sharing could have occurred just as well over specialized networks for the relatively few experts that were able to use it sensibly.

Fairbanks in Alaska is the same. In Siberia they have huge car gloves that you can envelop your car in, also since they don’t have a lot of outlets you just leave your car running.
In-line calculations. Improved file/folder searches. Ability to write custom workflows, especially those that might call other scripts/APIs.

I can't remember the name now, but there was a JavaScript-based launcher that did _almost_ everything I wanted but was still very early in development and a little too buggy for me at the time. UX wasn't quite as polished as Alfred either - adding custom logic involved dropping your custom scripts into the right folder and restarting the process, IIRC.

I don't disagree, but how do you teach something that requires curiosity to the incurious?

I don't think it's as simple as teaching techniques, there has to be motivation there.
Indeed, you just start typing and usually 3 letters is enough to click something at the screen.
Of course, this depends greatly in the buyer being... honorable, so I can understand if it doesn't work in many places.
>> Expansion greatly dilutes the fixed costs

> Where is the actual evidence of this, though? I'm not trying to be snide -- genuinely curious.

That claim was just based off how all businesses work. All the infrastructure, management, training, etc., that scale sublinearly with volume are diluted at large volume.

> Yet Waymo's financials are still buried in Alphabet's "Other Bets" line, which lost $1.2 billion in Q3 2023...

As I said, I definitely think Waymo is losing money overall right now, even in a particular regime.

> Why not blitzscale this thing to all markets and disclose the numbers to investors and send the stock to the moon?

They are in fact expanding rapidly. But this can't be scaled as fast as a software/internet company. They literally have to manufacture custom cars and, crucially, map the region in detail. Remember that Tesla's meteoric rise was ~70% growth per year. For years Waymo was only offering service to the general public in Phoenix. They opened in San Francisco in late 2022, and then in LA in mid 2023.

Also, Waymo (~$30B in 2020) is still an tiny part of Alphabet stock (>$1T), who owns a controlling interest. They have no reason to pump the stock because they have no shortage of capital.
I think US bias towards individual liberties culturally, and civil rights laws legally.. make a lot of this type of stick AND carrot approach harder.

Like we can lock people in jail for violating drug laws.

Or we can allow drug use & provide clean needles.

But it is very very hard to pass & enforce "we will force you into a rehab house" or "we will force you to take addiction treatment X / mental health drug Y".
The bar for this type of intervention is very high, and ironically higher than "you broke a law and go to jail now".
Yup. Like cops, they can’t be everywhere or pay attention to everything, so if someone starts threatening their authority, an example needs to be made.

The more professional and actually strong/competent they are, the more measured and appropriate that example can be.

If they’re actually weak or incompetent, expect to be stabbed in the back instead of the front, and for it to be insane and disproportionate instead of rational and measured.
Can confirm. Bluetooth on my Apple devices work flawlessly, bluetooth on my non-Apple devices does not (Windows/Linux PC, JBL speakers, etc). No idea what Apple does differently.
You spend extra on resources and people lambast you for your bloated and expensive stack. You run it lean and people like you say you’re cheaping out.
Since there seems to be a lot of BT experts here, perhaps I can ask a related question – why is BT still so slow?

Sometimes I want to transfer a file from a device to my phone or vice versa and it can take several minutes to transfer a file a few MBs in size. And don't get me wrong, it's far better than it used to be back in the 00s, but I guess it just seems odd to me that close proximity wireless file transfer isn't at least as fast as wifi? Or perhaps it is and my phone / laptop isn't supporting the full speed transfers?
FWIW, HTTP allows subprotocol / backwards-compatible negotiation. Perhaps that could be similar to how implementations of this might need to cooperate.
> Of course Hamas can be militarily defeated, its military infrastructure dismantled.

By destroying civilian infrastructure, targeting journalists, using starvation? No, that can kill all civilians in Gaza, and then there still will be Hamas in a tunnel somewhere.

And that Hamas dude is not an actor? I thought you meant movie actors.

But okay, the only people who say the kind of stuff that is normalized in Israeli society and repeated from highest ranks to lowest soldier, the only equivalent to it, is Hamas. (and probably Antisemites and all sorts of terrible people, but nobody that is remotely considered respectable by anyone in the West). You kind of made that point for me.

> IDF has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so 5 of them made a tiktok, so what? it's irrelevant.

And when many, many, many of public Israeli figures call all people in Gaza animals and call for extermination, then that's irrelevant because Hamas the terrorist organization is saying terrorist things ^^

At any rate it's not 5, and the fact that they make these genocidal statements while destroying civilian infrastructure, including usually naming their unit, often even the name of the person who leads it, makes it clear that it's not fringe, it's not something hidden, it's not a video that was stolen of a flash card, it's what they upload on social media and get celebrated for at home. And that rhetoric seems to matches the actions on the ground way better than all that stuff about this being "war" and aimed primarily at Hamas.

They'll complain/look bewildered but little will come of it (probably) if you just do it once and weren't rude. However they can (not necessarily will, but can) revoke your membership for it, which you'll discover when you try to use the card at checkout or online. YMMV of course, but then checking the receipt is something you agreed to when signing on as a member. It really probably depends on how much of a scene it makes and if that stores stop loss dept takes note, which is likely tied to the value/fullness of the stuff in your cart.

I've done it before when busy, the line was long and I just needed tp (I was fortunate Costco was essentially my closest grocery store at the time). The girl doing receipt check looked non plussed and "Sir'd" me, I just smiled held up the receipt, told her have a nice day and kept going. No issue. Full cart might actually get a response though.
I have. This was before I realized it was in their cardmember agreement. The woman grabbed my cart and held onto it, preventing me from leaving with my belongings until I conjured a receipt.
> You do understand that the main thrust of my argument here is that it doesn’t have to be like that correct?

No, I don't

> I should be able to prompt the user to install and it would just work.

No, you shouldn't. Not until you prove that you can actually make proper prompts and not turn the web into what it is today: a collection of in your face modals, calls to action, popups etc.
What you propose is teaching to the lowest common denominator, which is precisely what happens in the public (grade) school system in America, and is also precisely why our high school students are falling behind their global contemporaries.

I don't see why schools shouldn't teach the 'lowest common denominator'. Perhaps they should be separated into their own classes?
My experience, in recent years, is that BT performance has mainly been bad when in an open space. I've found that while mowing my lawn or walking bluetooth audio drops out unless my phone is in my shirt pocket instead of my front or back pants pocket. Once I am in an enclosed space I don't have this issue.
Yeah, exactly. The media is making the same mistake they made in 2016. "Trump is terrible. We have to not let him win. Let's run article after article showing exactly how terrible he is!" And so Trump gets more press than anyone else. And so he wins. At least, that's how it worked out in 2016.

I fear that 2024 will be a repeat. The press learned nothing from 2016. (I mean, yeah, Biden is also weak. But the free publicity Trump gets is overwhelming.)
Yeah, but these checks are bonkers. Whenever we get one (maybe 2x a month) the store worker literally takes everything out of our bag and scans it again. It takes forever, and then we have to repack the bag. Don't get me wrong, I vastly prefer it to the scales in the US, but they're terrible and do nothing to prevent stealing (in fairness anecdata, but Jumbo reported they lost millions to stealing and I know multiple people who say they steal from Albert Heijn every time they go).
There are a lot of cold towns in the US that didn't have the same issues as Chicago. There's more to it than just "Cold weather".

TBH, perhaps the more general problem is that EVs aren't fully ready for dense cities yet. Or maybe dense cities aren't ready for EVs.
> One factor is Bluetooth is on the 2.4GHz band, and WiFi on that band is many times more powerful - so Bluetooth packets can only get through in the gaps between Wifi transmissions.

It's the other way around: Bluetooth transmits whenever it wants to (or rather has to, per the frequency hopping sequence) 802.11/Wi-Fi has to deal with the consequences (i.e. consider the channel occupied or back off its transmissions in case of a collision per CSMA/CA).

All reasonably modern Bluetooth implementations support adaptive frequency hopping though and try to avoid bands known to be busy with other protocols.
This is my experience. Windows has gotten better too albeit still the one I have the most issues with. It’s mostly their BT configs randomly get out of whack and I have to go troubleshoot it, like I don’t use my headphones in a month and it’s decided to disable the device although the taskbar makes it appear as paired.
I just want to be clear here that when I made that claim it was in no way just because of that but was a decade of actions (or largely inaction) where they made sure that the web platform would be missing lots of functionality that app developers would require to consider the web as a viable option for their software business.
I'd have nerves about qemu being snooped by a malicious/corporate/internet-cafe/friend's/etc host OS. Why not just use a bootable usb disc?
Doesn't solve all the problems and probably introduces others. But if your employer allows you to run random qemu images, then doesn't seem they'd be overly worried about a bootable usb.
Same in Slovakia. I love self-checkouts, been using them preferably. Paired with scanning items to the store app as I pick them from aisle and then just scanning self-checkout QR code so all the items neatly import to checkout register and I just pay for it and go (Kaufland, Tesco). It's been really good experience.
This seems easily fixed: just ask the consumer to show a driver license or other accepted ID, with some software validating whether it is legit. It will still be slower than a regular cashier judging your full beard and receding earline, but it would remove most human oversight.

Obviously there is a risk of illegally selling items to minors with fake documents, but I think that's fixable too. Already, in my local UK supermarket there are cameras on each checkout station, which I guess go to some bored reviewer; so you could just alert the guy "hey, customer X gave us a valid license" and assume that he'll react if he can't see a realistic amount of wrinkles.
Awesome idea, been looking for something like this every now and then, esp right now.

1. You are not solving a real problem. The use case you describe (basically a CDN) is already exotic, the scenario where such a system would have already been implemented with Java and its basic IO seems implausible.

2. You did not compare against fewer threads to see if threads are actually the bottleneck rather than IO. Also, all your threads are competing for stdout.
