What are you advancing?
The current advice is when you buy something to already think about the resale value of the item.

So this excludes all colors for everything. Black, white, gray everything.
Why would you need to optimize the config? I'm not talking about running an interactive shell.
If we're to continue with this thought experiment in doing the dumb thing. Clearly you would version your sanitizer and store which version you used when saving the password. That way you can ensure the same version is used against future user inputs.
Thanks, product design is something I've also considered. I'd guess Apple/MS style companies are probably still the best bet, even though you're more restricted than what it probably was at Bell.
> fundamentally lacks

We don't actually know that yet. It may very well fundamentally have all that is necessary for intelligence but other pieces are missing.

Frontier neuroscience and functional processes for how our brains work has more in common with the fundamentals of LLMs than not, vis-a-vis minimization of prediction errors.
For videos, yeah. When I'm in a room with friends, and one of them is already connected to their TV, it's much quicker to airdrop a large video file (say, 500MB) than it is to send it up to the Internet and have them download it. Aside from the better bandwidth, it's also much faster from the time I tap "Share" to the time it's appearing on their device.

For gifs or a funny photo or whatever, yeah I'll just text it.

Oh man. There is this building in the city where I live. It's SO uncompromisngly gray and ugly that sometimes I think maybe it's actually a parody of this particular style. It kind of looks like a prison from the outside too... but it's actually condos! I hate it so much that I love it. :)

Anyway here's a great photo of it I found on Google:

Definitely exists for IBM zOS.

RedHat Linux has also been ported to this platform; it's probably ASCII, but not sure.

Oracle has a native client on zOS that does transparent conversion between ASCII and EBCDIC. It was probably built with such a compiler.

There was a paper that the original port of Research UNIX ran as a client on an IBM TSS/370 kernel, which likely was not ASCII.

Hello! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

Our research indicates that many repositories could avoid abandonment with more targeted funding, which is why we introduced the issue-based principle. However, we acknowledge that this approach may not be suitable for all issues or open source repositories.

To address this, we're considering giving repository maintainers the ability to manage donations, such as distribution and permissions on specific issues to encourage proper development. The actual execution of these features will be tested during the beta phase, as predicting their usage beforehand is challenging.

Your feedback is valuable, and we welcome constructive criticism and ideas. Thanks once again for your input!
I thought it was the reverse. Usually you are advised to use a VPN while torrenting for the explicit purpose of hiding your IP.
In a thin atmosphere, lifting a heavier payload needs bigger rotors or increased RPM, which increases power demands and structural stress. The challenge is to keep the vehicle light enough to fly while also making it sturdy enough to carry the payload and survive environments.
AirPlay and Miracast both rely on WiFi (in case of Miracast it's WiFi Direct, for AirPlay I'm not sure), so it's not uncommon for WiFi chips to maintain 2 connections at once.
It does seem to go far deeper than a single contract for a single piece of poorly written software.

Summary:
In the 1960s, the government merged a bunch of companies "at gunpoint", creating behemoths like British Leyland (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Leyland) and ICL (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Computers_Limite...) that were to compete with international giants.

ICL couldn't beat IBM, but the government were committed to "buying British". That left the government with shit computers and systems. It still didn't help ICL, so in 1981 they faced bankruptcy. Since the government was the biggest user of ICL systems, civil servants persuaded Thatcher that "if ICL went bust, the government would grind to a halt". So ICL was rescued, with the aid of trusted Japanese tech firm Fujitsu. ICL lost its monopoly status, but was deeply embedded in the British state. You know the phrase "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM"? Well in the British Government, replace "IBM" with "ICL".

In 1995 the British government decided to automate their social welfare system. "Project Pathway" was a disaster. It got dumped 4 years later, but the Post Office still went ahead and used it, this time calling it "Project Horizon". According to insiders, everybody knew it was a "bag of shit". By now, ICL was fully owned by Fujitsu, who told the Blair government that if they didn’t sign the deal, ICL would collapse. So the deal was signed. And what a mess for all involved.

This isn't an isolated case though. ICL/Fujitsu built another system for the Cabinet Office in No. 10, for highly classified material. It was absolute trash, taking half an our to boot, and Ministers refused to use it. They dumped the system, prompting Fujitsu to sue for breach of contract. But, even as the Cabinet Office was decommissioning it, another branch of government was buying it.

Why? Partly because of EU rules, departments couldn't share their experiences with a given supplier or system. If a department knew that ICL/Fujitsu sucked, it might influence future contracts "and everyone would be sued".

Instead we have suicides, lives and reputations ruined.
No they don’t disconnect from WiFi and as of the latest iOS you can now leave airdrop radius and it will use the internet to continue transfer. Its magic

Very much agree with you and my first thought was, who has that much drama at work? If you do, the employer or the type of the job is the problem.
This. Airdrop is actually viable for transferring huge files, like RAW photos or ProRes footage. I've had video engineering professionals ask me if it's viable to implement Airdrop support in something like a camera or a recorder, not because it's pretty or doesn't need cables, but because it would save them time in a media workflow (they are busy people).

Hey, our investors provided us with the specific content that we needed to include. Thanks for noticing anyway.
Honestly, people can’t seem to judge an event by only that event.

Let’s be honest here, the west has probably done the worst amount of damage to the most, both in count and diversity, people out there. Yet we do not sit around saying, ah westerners deserve to be killed because of $historical_event_#.

For some reason, that judgment is always valid to brown folk. As a brown person in the west I’ve basically accepted that I’m only considered a human in this country as long as I toe the line and agree with the status quo. If I step out too much I’m worth less than an animal.
I agree with that. I guess my question is: do you always use two panes to copy? And does your file manager have something like tabs for different contexts where you would not necessarily be moving files between them?

How demanding/complex upkeep is may be a big factor here.

For something like a single platform utility, the burden is relatively low because the number of things that can break is bounded (as long as public APIs are used, private API usage is another matter). With a Mac app like Magnet there’s one time each year chance of breakages occurring is high (new OS release), which devs are given several months ahead of time to find and fix.

Multiplatform apps obviously multiply that burden, with some platforms being more problematic than others — e.g. Android phones sometimes have weird per-device-model quirks that apps need to work around, which is not something one typically sees on Windows PCs, iPhones, or Macs.

Anything with an online/server component unavoidably needs to be babysat to keep running and secure, and the more functional that component is and the more surface it has exposed the more vigilant one needs to be. There’s also hosting costs, which can be quite high in the case of an independent dev who relies on cloud services to make up for lack of resources.

Which is all to say that it makes sense that a Mac-only tiny utility could more sustainably be a cheap one time purchase than many other types of project could be.
Sounds much more painful than dropping them in iCloud / Google Drive / Dropbox, as you have to send, accept, save, switch to app, upload instead of just going to the app, select file from cloud storage, upload.

Especially when you might want to upload from multiple devices.
Apple already books all of TSMC's bleeding edge nodes for the consumer market. How can they possibly start selling equivalent server hardware?
It scales up to 20kg, yes.
One issue might be rotor span. Ingenuity has pretty big rotors to counter the thin atmosphere (about 4 feet top-to-tip).

On earth rotor sizes are limited by the speed at the wing-tip. Once you make the rotor too long the tips start approaching supersonic speeds, giving you all kinds of weird mach effects. To make matters worse, the speed of sound is about 30% lower on Mars compared to near earth's surface.
oh, incredible. this is exactly what i wished existed for years but assumed was too absurd/overkill to have ever been made, so i didn't even search for it
In this case you are assuming not to have P. The traditional idea of "pick 2 of 3" with respect to CAP is weirdly formulated because you either have a distributed system, in which case P is a given and you must trade C vs A, or you don't have a distributed system and can therefore have both C and A.
IIRC Apple uses some proprietary radio protocol (or maybe it’s just Bluetooth) to discover and communicate with nearby Apple products.
Yes, the simplest checks always lead to a stack of bug reports that I (with my testing hat on) can generate on the developers. In addition, tab order when entering the data by keyboard. The developers just assume that the user knows as much as they know and will work in the same way as they do.

We have wide range of clients from very technically sophisticated down to people who need guidance and hand-holding. QA, for me, is ensuring all clients have a good experience with the software and get value from our software.
It helps when all of these conspiracy theories get proved true day after day.

So, there's that.

The real question is, why are people so close minded and sure of their world view not to believe in conspiracy theories.
No, free software is different than "does not cost money". You can pay for free software. For example the OS of my TV (not a smart TV but still) is free and opensource, yet I paid for it when I bought my TV.

One of my favorite professors was using Processing, which was confusing for some, but it really helped that the students got to visually see results.

I have to wonder if we allowed people to learn programming significantly better when RAD IDE languages were more common like VB6 and Delphi. Something about visually seeing what you're building vs just seeing text on a screen. I guess it would only affect SOME people learning to code this way, because we have plenty of brilliant minds who had even less than a terminal at one point or another.
Not a solar thermal electric power generator, but solar thermal storage. It's just a hunk of matter, usually a water tank.
Getting to know some cuda is a solid step forward, I'd recommend familiarizing with Triton as a next move since you seem into that, besides fundamentals like trying out a scalable deployment workflow with a framework>training env>inference env>orchestration tooling of choice. Plenty of room to mix and match there (and can be done at no cost in many cases due to generous free trials/tiers) :).
Simply finding something you love goes a long way, there's always going to be opportunities to prove your worth especially when it comes to infra: here's a little example, there's a lot of popular streamlined training tools which save checkpoints where tensors are nested oddly in subkeys- because of it deserialization gets iffy when converting to safetensors. That wouldn't be a hassle if it were a one off thing, but said models are really big and popular without even counting the sheer number of finetunes that also get deployed and when aware of it can just act accordingly but it's what stopped enough projects in their tracks for a while until pointed out haha.
I'm sure that whatever you pick to do will be a good choice, best of luck :)
Yeah, agreed. My dad had undiagnosed ADHD until a year or so ago. He loved research and got a PhD, but couldn't do the tasks that were expected of a professor and ended up not getting tenure. After that he struggled to hold a job for most of my childhood.

It's definitely not all upside, especially in modern contexts. But I do believe what I said—he would have thrived in the more Wild West academia of Isaac Newton and John Locke. The things he struggled to do were the accidental complexities of the job of professor, not the truly important aspects of that role.
tauri might be good.
From my experience with food service biz, there are two types of these services: one puts your menu on the web and charges 150-500/mo (ie ChowNow, Bento), and you also need a merchant processor (ie Stripe).

The other type (Grubhub, DoorDash, UberEats) do not charge you a monthly subscription/hosting fee, and instead just take up to 20% of your revenue.

Most restaurants want to have both. The first is a destination for people who are looking for you. The second is the third-party marketing your food.

Business hope the latter does not cannibalize sales from the former.
Perhaps an edge case, but what about all the commands you mistype or use the wrong flags for etc. If I want to recall a niche or complex command I used months ago I probably won't remember which of the 10 results that pop up was the right one.
The Saudis bombed Yemen for years with US weapons and targeting. A civil war has been been waged on and off for decades too. Dropping cruise missiles on rubble (which seems to be as far as the US/UK will escalate) will not have much effect.
An alternative concept is the reverse of this: a very tall shell like a cooling tower, where water (possibly sea water) is injected at the top. Warm dry air is cooled, becomes denser, and flows out the bottom through turbines.

This does not require a large area set aside for heating; it exploits the natural heating of air over any arid area. In a place like Los Angeles it would also serve to scrub pollutants from the air. There is a net increase in atmospheric humidity, so it would increase rainfall downwind of the site, possibly beneficial in desert regions.

These concepts do not scale down well, extracting more energy from the air as the tower becomes higher.

Curiously if you used a London bus in around 2005 with bluetooth on you would experience a lot of files being sent to you via ad hoc networks.
> The engineering team behind the idea, Schlaich Bergermann and Partner, noted that solar updraft towers really only make sense at these massive scales. Smaller installations aren’t cost competitive with photovoltaic solar panels, but larger ones can be. Large facilities make enough power to offset the huge construction costs,

I think that until there is some revolution in construction logistics, skill, or management techniques, every large construction project is going to have a nearly unacceptable chance of being a boondoggle.

All of construction involves too much time of people hurrying up and waiting for crucial materials/equipment to arrive, waiting for the prior step to finish that can only be finished by particular people highly skilled in some techniques, or similar.

Every retrospective I have seen on construction productivity or on particular projects will cite these problems. Contrast this with manufacturing lines, which experience the same problems during ramp up, but can be solved and stay solved since tomorrow is another day just like today. With construction...

Then again, I'm no expert, just a highly interested amateur, do take my opinions with a grain of salt. But I would definitely make a bet on manufactured tech over constructed tech, in any area , when it comes to cost.
I don’t think those payments should be private either, but they are. You can’t stop paying people because you think they should be publicly paid, if they’re not going to be publicly paid instead. And unless the content you consume is all made by artists that live under that system, what your system does is irrelevant. As convenient as it would be for our circumstances or identities to relieve us from our duty to deal fairly with other people, it doesn’t. In fact, it’s the first defense we reflexively cite when justifying something we do wrong.

The fact that you’re using your residence in a country with more humane economic policy as justification for treating people with the exact opposite principles exemplifies that.

Stop the mental gymnastics. You feel entitled to people’s art, and your self-image of being a good person with the right political ideals absolves you from what you consider to be a minor indiscretion in simply taking it. You’re wrong.

That book is incredibly relevant to current trends. While envy in small societies spurred improvement, in today’s complex societies it breeds destructive tendencies, vast disparity in achievement makes envy less about motivation and more about resentment, fueling calls for collectivism and redistribution. The rise of Progressive politics might be less about fairness and more about an unaddressed, deep-seated envy. We know historically there are only destructive outcomes for policies rooted in such emotions, rather than constructive societal development.
