> Maybe my privilege is having the wisdom to differentiate the things I can change from the things I can't.

This is indeed a privilege which is available to many people who do not take advantage of it!

But it's also not available to everyone. Perhaps more relevantly, it is not the present case for everyone.

I agree with you in how I live my life, and I'm fortunate to be able to do that. Obviously I don't know you but presumably you chose to immigrate to a place (or a specific location in that place) where you are able to live a fairly safe life.

Some people are not there, and are not able to escape where they are. For them, the politicization of everything is existential.

...and some others politicize things because they are unhappy and hurting the people they think are hurting them makes them feel better. Or so it seems. All very unhealthy, and yes I'm speaking from an American perspective. We are not known for our strong and stable mental health.
In America, generally baths are for kids. Adults normally shower.

I don't know why this is. I love baths, but I'm 6'3 and don't fit in any of them, so no bath for me.

The people I've met from chess.com were straightforward and focused on their craft. The product they work on doesn't seem to hurt anyone and I haven't see any exploitation common to tech companies. I heard they don't pay Bay Area salaries, which is probably makes them more sustainable over the long-term.

I wonder if the peaceful co-existence of lichess and chess.com co-existing somehow disturbs some esoteric ideology.
I loved the part about "new features" and he pulls out the skin to overlay the buttons to give it a keyboard layout, and then promptly does absolutely nothing with it that required the use of that overlay.
New information from a Google employee: this new leaderboard entry (Bard - Gemini Pro) is a different fine-tune than the previous one (Gemini Pro - Dev API), but more importantly it "has access to the Internet" which I assume means it uses Google Search when generating answers. I bet this is responsible for the boost!

Does anyone know if the GPT-4 Turbo version used on the leaderboard has access to web search? I always assumed it did not, but now it doesn't seem like an apples-to-apples comparison.

https://x.com/asadovsky/status/1750983142041911412?s=20

Edit: I used the "Direct Chat" feature on lmsys to ask Bard and GPT-4 Turbo "What is the current price of Bitcoin?". Sure enough GPT-4 Turbo said it can't browse the Internet and Bard gave a real time answer from Google Search. This means GPT-4 outperforms Bard overall even without the ability to browse the web at all. Pretty impressive.

These seem like different categories; one is a model and one is a system with a model plus tools. I think it is useful to compare them, since there is a real difference in user experience. However, they ought to be prominently marked as different categories. And the lmsys guys ought to put a ChatGPT model on the leaderboard with its own search integration enabled, for a fairer comparison. And it would be cool to have other LLM+tools entries like Perplexity, Phind, etc.

I think that typically a rewrite in, well anything, can be helpful - simply because the first write wasn't sure of what may work or what the correct model for the system should be, or how to handle specific parts of the system etc.

A rewrite in Rust can be good for those reasons, as it removes the "cruft" of old implementation, but also gets the nice properties of speed and such.

But ultimately the thing I love most about Rust is not even the safety and such - it's the package management and build system. Just look at the horrible python/js scene for how bad packaging and build systems can be, and you'll understand why that basic uniform experience can be so nice.
SXMO was basically the only thing that didn't lag on PinePhone for me. Which makes sense, as it's basically sway with dmenu for phone interface. I was very excited about the whole thing and even made the same scripts work for my desktop sway with baresip, but then decided to just use a normal reliable feature phone that looks cool.

I'm currently reading "Queens of the Crusades" by Allison Weir, about the lives of England's Medieval queens, starting from Eleanor of Aquitaine. From the book, the model I have to understand the context of French culture in Medieval England is to think of it as yet another principality within the much larger French cultural umbrella of continental Europe. Eleanor spoke not "French", but Lengadòc or Occitan. She learned Norman French later in life. Her daughter-in-law, Berengaria of Navarre, spoke Castilian like her Castilian mother, and the rest of the Navarrese nobility, along with some Occitan. Later queens came from from the duchy of Provence. Through marriage, they were also duchesses of Normandy, Anjou, Aquitaine, Gascony - regions that, like England, had cultural and linguistic similarities with the Kingdom of France, but their own independent political history. Some were held nominally as vassals of the French court, some not.
While what you are saying is technically true, Chinese ships would be allowed to exercise their right of Transit Passage under UNCLOS through the Strait of Gibraltar.
The Marshall Plan and favorable trade agreements the allies gave Japan would never be extended by Israel the way it is and acts now, so there has to be another solution. Destruction didn't turn Germany and Japan around, the ability to uplift themselves did. The very thing which has been denied to Gaza since 2005 at least (and likely much longer)
And stop using streets for car storage, opening them up to people and plants.
Problem is no one will take refugees from Gaza even temporarily. If countries would the death toll would be much less. The reason Egypt doesn't is because Hamas has links to and provides support for Islamic terrorists groups involved the Sinai Insurgency. I think that hope had been that over time since 2007 Hamas would moderate and act more rationally. Instead the opposite has happened.

So the combination having to destroy Hamas and the unwillingness of other countries to take refugees is terrible for hapless civilians.

I played around with https://www.quantconnect.com/

Its a platform where you just focus on implementing strategy. Was fun but I realised it would be more work than just getting a better job.

I'm sure there are others as well.
Yes that was my experience as well, except I went to a big company straight out of school so didn't know that it could be different at a small company.
Since Netflix can still be accessed in the AVP browser, it's fun to speculate on what the marginal utility would be for a Netflix AVP app. There is some functionality that will be lost such as downloads/offline use, but the biggest loss is probably the Netflix DRM that would allow 4k HDR10 videos on the AVP instead of the default which is probably 1080p SDR. If no one really cares for the extra quality (assuming the display doesn't show a noticeable improvement between the two video levels) then it doesn't make sense for Netflix to spend the extra money on an AVP app. And if they just let their iPad app be used, they would still need to spend money on QA and lawyers to make sure it worked on the AVP and none of the content holders objected to the new platform.

(I don't have any specific insight to the Apple + Netflix discussion, but I used to work on video playback at Daydream and Oculus so I had similar discussions about engineering tradeoff for a native app vs web streaming in the past.)

> and nuclear information to use against those around you, especially your boss.

Always remember MICE: Money, Ideology, Compromise, and Ego. You probably don't control the money and the only ideology is capitalism so compromise and ego are the ones you should focus on.

Honey pots work the best as compromise (especially sexual in nature) and you should always practice your skill of manipulating your coworkers' egos to help them along in the path to self destruction ("never interrupt your enemy when they are making a mistake").
I really, really, really dislike using Teams. Sometimes I think it's just a cruel joke that Microsoft is playing on us.
Yes, Israeli Arabs are fairly represented in the Knesset, and in the courts, and everywhere. They carry an Israeli passport and are treated the same way and have the same travel rights.

The people not treated the same are people that live in the occupied territories. The status of those territories has not been settled since 1967. I.e. the West Bank and Gaza. Israel accepts that those are occupied territories (it has not annexed them). The parties they were taken from (Jordan and Egypt) do not wish to take them back. So "Israel" proper does not discriminate against Arabs (broadly speaking) but the status of the occupied territories, that are under military rule, according to international law, is different.

I feel like ‘surely follow’ will be measured in many years. The idea of not allowing competing browser engines on iOS has struck me one of Apples more egregious sins. Ideally I could be running Firefox prior to 2030 in the US, but I don’t trust our government’s pace to bet on it.
Yeah I mean I remember some article from long ago where it was explaining how hard it is to actually get most MUAs to not send text/html. I think they all send both because only sending one or the other gets you marked as spam.

Well, you can bounce stuff. But, yeah I agree it's the correct product decision to not wander down the MUA rabbit hole. Like I said it's just the (email) nerd in me can't let it go haha.
EU's mandate of USB-C on phones is resulting in benefits for the rest of the world too, it's understandable to hope for the same in this case. Apple must have a lot to gain from keeping the other markets locked down if they're willing to invest the necessary time & money to maintain different guidelines like this.
I agree to an extent. I've been relatively happy with the progress in JS. I'm not happy with the lack of attention to performance and bloated applications.

I also find HTMX pretty compelling. I still like React a lot though.
Clearly chess.com was using something like "starts with" to process the re-upload. Basically don't re-upload if it starts with https://chess.com, but filter out if it starts with https://chess.com/registration-invite

Typically same origin policies are relaxed for things like images by default [0]. So they came up with a trampoline, they created a chess.com.theirDomain.tld to get past the re-upload filter, which in turn returned a redirect, which the browser followed.

Isn't that exactly the view of reality that the Israeli right wing holds? They would agree that the choices are either dismantling the state of Israel, or eternal warfare. Since they don't want to dismantle the state of Israel, they elect for eternal warfare.

It's funny how on some questions, the most extreme people on both sides agree on the answer. Hamas and the Israeli right wing both agree that the only viable solution is for one ethnic group to control all the land from the river to the sea.

Yes, the ICJ can order a ceasefire. It ordered Russia to stop its invasion of Ukraine, for example. In this case it decided not to, but it did order other measures (which hopefully will save lives, but time will tell).
I agree with you. The thought of licensing won't cross the mind of the vast majority of people.

But yeah better licensing would still be nice.

I appreciate the comment but I feel it fails to address mine.

> is also not going to work because if they don't like it there are several other ways they can copy it

>> All arguments against privacy were dismissed with claims that one can screenshot

> you have no guarantees

>> stochastically increases privacy and security

I'm not sure why we have to frame privacy and security with strict guarantees. If we need strict guarantees then we should abandon all efforts because guarantees do not exist (my preemptive response to what you are thinking is "implementation.") Fundamentally it is always stochastic as statistics is a way to capture error and uncertainty.

Everyone that advocates for deletion is well aware that one can screenshot, copy, or even write down information. It is a weird assumption to make, because it implies an exceptional level of stupidity to the person you respond to. Every 12 year old knows that you can screenshot Snapchats and they know it can be done without Snapchat warning the other person. So forgive me, because while I know you are acting in good intent (we've had enough conversations that I have that respect for you), I think I need to point out that it is easy to read such a response as indicating you did not bother to read my comment (so why comment?) or that you imply I am incredibly naive. I say this because this topic is often heated so stating this can help reduce the inference gap. I know you are not trying to do such a thing, but not all others will have that shared history to give benefit of the doubt.

There's nuance necessary beyond the existence of copy methods. People with positions similar to mine understand that the act of copying requires time and energy. That someone needs to either preemptively implement a system of record keeping or that such an action is responsive. In the latter case, having the ability to delete acts as a windowing operation. You do not know your adversaries a priori nor do all adversaries begin as adversaries. So if you can delete the information before a log is created, you have succeeded. Yes, this is stochastic. But I'd rather have a 1% of protection than a 0%, because an immutable history just means the adversary has unlimited time to strike. Basically, you are doing your adversary's job for them. tldr: the game has a temporal component and it is not turn based.

I will understand arguments about communication, of how some may assume stronger protection than received, but I'd also respond that this is a fairly universal claim and we do not apply it to many other domains as we still find utility.

I'll also add that this stochastic protection is why companies will remotely wipe your devices if they are reported lost or stolen. You wipe for protection but operate under assumption that the data was copied. This is fairly standard practice.
It feels like there should be some kind of tool analogous to valgrind/ASAN/TSAN/UBSAN for code that is just run on all the images of any kind of paper before it is published to check for these kinds of things. Some of them just seem to be honest mistakes like linking the same image in two different places and this would fix that so nobody needs to bother checking for it in the future. It would also have the byproduct of catching all the malicious image doctoring that some people do which is just horrific for science in general.

No, we are not. "minimal" has a defined meaning, and "minimal" and "minimalism" as a design philosophy are not the same.
I can rephrase.

A typical scenario for say a pension (aka superannuation, aka 401k) is that when you are young you go for higher short
term risk and higher potential growth mix of investments and as you get closer to retirement you derisk.

The idea is that a crash when young is no issue as the market will recover and probably you’ll get some bargain stock soon after.

When you are older you don’t want to lose 20% of your savings to a crash so more money gets diverted into lower risk stuff.

The point is that there is not one investment strategy that suits all. Therefore there is a place for fund managers to provide different risk profiles. They aren’t really getting alpha but they are useful nonetheless. They won’t be picking stocks based on trading ideas.

To compound this, these large funds deal with billions of dollars. If you place a market order for a billion dollars people notice. Just like if you had to spend a million dollars on ebay on used apple watches you are going to affect the price of those watches because of your bids. Therefore they will find it hard to seek alpha anyway.

The point is there is a place for funds that might seem like “dumb money” but just broadly follow indices and there is a place for traders with a model and a theory to try and beat the markets.

They might, but HR will (or at least should) fire anyone who does that - that is guards escort you from your desk to the door. Then to add insult to your bad day, you get summoned to court for your contempt of court hearing. It is to the companies advantage to turn in anyone who attempts to destroy everything - it shows the court they are serious about saving everything which might be useful if they need to claim something was an oversight. Of course if you are the subject of that wink wink thing - assume they are trying to make you take the blame for the company.

Not that they are likely to be able to do much. My company first presses the button in exchange to lock everything electronic I have so I cannot delete it, before they let me know that I need to save everything (or so they claim...). Thus I cannot really delete anything. I might be able to shred something, but who keeps paper records of anything (and if by chance I do have one, odds are it is a printout of something where there is still an electronic copy). While I don't know what company you work for, it they have any size at all they should have similar processes in place so there is nothing you can delete - but the act of attempting it will be noted and brought to court.
That won't help with the inconvenience of having to maintain two apps.
Flagging someone down to call for you isn't a workable solution. For one, you could easily be nowhere near a city and need to call from the middle of nowhere. For people in the US (and I'm sure elsewhere), the cities are car centric and you could easily be nowhere near anybody out walking around.

A regular phone without a sim could work though
All the layers and interrelated systems means that any given change of note requires a lot more input and communication than at a small company. Some of this is necessary, but usually a lot of it’s because most organizations are terrible at communication and making relevant information accessible.

This means one of two things:

1) You will work with similar independence to a developer at a smaller company—but spent 10-20% as much time directly working on code and related things, with the rest going to tracking down people and systems to get what you need to start/proceed/complete a feature.

2) Or, someone else will do all that for you, you’ll have far less independence, and will basically just be killing detailed Jira ticket exactly as assigned. But you’ll write a lot more code and such.
Slightly OT: has anyone played any video games on NFLX?

I'd be interested to know what others have found. Am I missing out on something that I've apparently been paying for?
