Edge is the last Browser I would use.

There is a Windows 11 version that you can install without Edge now if I remember and read this correctly. Its because of some EU law that requires M$ to ship without a browser. Not sure if there is also a way to actually remove it if you did not a fresh install now, when I read about it there was not.

SmartOS is being actively developed since the aquisition from Joyent[1] in April 2022.

We've released a new version every two weeks post acquisition, and are continuing to develop and invest.

We also hold office hours events roughly every two weeks on Discord[2], and would love for you to stop by and ask any questions, or just listen along!

That indoor drone was one of those WTF moments for me. I envisioned one of those meetings with nothing but sycophants and nobody with a dissenting opinion where the most ludicrous pitch was green lit.
The author makes it look like only pro racers are fast enough to benefit from carbon bikes. I guess he's never met good amateur racers, they are very fast, the big difference between an amateur racer and a pro is in how long they can sustain a given power, and the ability to sustain it after a very long race. But most amateur races are done at speeds above 40km/h on the flat, where aero matters a lot.
You have yet to say why. Making random hyperboles and sounding angry isn't an argument, it's a tantrum.
Why not? They're making the decision to do these things, so it's their responsibility. That they work on slim margins doesn't enter into it.
That uses the rss feed to find new videos.
Depends on how they operate. Selling subsidiaries as going concerns or handing their shares to creditors of the parent are often options.

It's in no way a given that a subsidiary is insolvent just because the parent is.

This isn't unusual. E.g. when Commodore went bankrupt several subsidiaries continued to operate as long as they had stock, and the UK subsidiary even tried to organize a buyout of its parent.
Comparing HK to NYC is very reductive lol.

Though it's kinda funny to imagine the Dutch held onto NYC until the 1990s after which there was some sort of unification process.

>but your personal standard for privacy is way out of line with what the vast vast majority of people consider privacy nowadays. Up to you if you want to spend your life living in anger at that or not.

I'm not living in anger, I'm just not comfy sharing my data with Chinese companies and their random cloud services. I think that applies to most people actually.

Yes the ship has long sailed on the online privacy of the Average Joe who's already knees deep in Google, Meta, Tinder, Microsoft, Amazon, etc, but that doesn't mean I should just bend over to more of those from China as well.

Privacy is not binary, as in you either have it or you don't, but you can actively control and limit how much you give away once you're educated on the subject and willing to invest a few clicks through cookie banners, ad blockers, etc.
Wow, not a single mention of fatigue limits in the article and in the comments here, I MUST POST.

Titanium and steel have a property called a fatigue limit[0], aluminum and carbon do not. There's a stress threshold below which steel and titanium accumulate zero wear, making their cycle life effectively infinite. Every bump Al and CF take puts them on setp closer to failure, and that failure tends to be catastrophic. I will never ride bikes made out of the latter two materials, I need to rely on this machine for my life, I don't want it's cycle life nagging me in the back of my mind.

If you want to save weight, take the brakes and gears off. :P

I’m not blaming gnome, I just see it as a big problem in the future ‘oh sorry just have to restart wayland so I can boot into $app’. Any display renderer that has this limitation and expects each individual project to cross-support other renderers is a poor design, at least in my books.

This indeed. When you live in a friendly environment, whenever you do something right, you achieve some small success. When you live in an unfriendly environment, you need to get many things right at the same time, otherwise it all falls apart. So if you don't trust yourself to do everything flawlessly, there is almost no point in trying.

Also, if you succeed once in the friendly environment, you get praise and more support in your efforts. If you succeed in the unfriendly environment, people assume that you either cheated or simply got lucky but it won't happen again. So even after you succeeded at some small thing, it may still feel like there is no point.

Even just loading a bike onto a car rack is a pretty big difference. I don't think I'd pay for carbon if the only benefit was it being easier to carry, but it is a pretty big benefit.

As an active duty officer approaching 20 years of service myself, I think this is a good comment except for your first couple of statements. I'm very skeptical.

I think that an enlisted service member who's good enough, and lucky enough, to learn and do some technical things can easily 3x their pay by working as a contractor after their initial enlistment. But their starting point is low as an E-3, E-4. They can go from making $40k to $120k, sure, especially if they're willing to work in a combat zone.

I don't know a single O-4, O-5, O-6 (and I'm talking aviators and IT/cyber officers) who has "fallen into" making 3x as a civilian. Their pay in uniform is $160-240k. Many of them seem to opt for civil service jobs as a GS-14, GS-15, which will match their previous pay at best (but be in addition to the $50-90k pension).

I hope you're right, but I'm certainly not counting on a $600k job offer when my time comes.
> 1.) Why did it take Evergrande 3 years to liquidate?

Because this isn't "the West". China/CCP is specifically unwinding this slowly to avoid cross-market contagion.
The foreigners probably loaned money to Evergrande a long time ago, before the issues started appearing.

If we were not perfectly convinced that Hamlet's Father died before the play began, there would be nothing more remarkable in his taking a stroll at night, in an easterly wind, upon his own ramparts, than there would be in any other middle-aged gentleman rashly turning out after dark in a breezy spot -- say Saint Paul's Churchyard for instance -- literally to astonish his son's weak mind.

In many cases that should be taken as a plea that you get involved and write those documentations. Writing documentation is hard, but someone needs to do it.
Is there any possibility of unwinding the distortion caused by site fees, time-value issues, and other market imperfections to recover the true odds implied by the betting markets, or is it just too complicated for that to be feasible?
That sounds perfectly reasonable. I'm more worried about noise and heat than the cost though, but I guess that's not too bad either then. What's the latency like? When I've used generative image models the programs unload the model after they're done, so it takes a while to generate the next image. Is the model sitting in VRAM when it's idle?
It's more than the risk free return. It's also fees. Whatever the fee percentage is, all in, to get a dollar out of the platform and back into cash on a winning bet, plus the risk free rate over the time period, that's your upper bound. Given the comments above about fees it doesn't surprise me at all to see 5-10% mispricing.
We Reject New Ideas
I believe you're being downvoted because there is already a big thread about this here, though I think that's a bit unfair to you. I haven't posted in that thread yet because I wanted to let others say what is meaningful about the product to them, but this seems like a good place to put my reply. Regardless of all that: it is hardware + software you can purchase and use on-premise, that's correct.

The differentiator from virtually all existing on-prem cloud products is that we are a single vendor who has designed the hardware and software (which is as open source as we can possibly make it, by the way, hence announcements like this) to work well together. Most products combine various other products from various vendors, and are effectively selling you integration. We believe that that leads to all kinds of problems that our product solves.

Another factor here is that we only have two SKUs: a half rack and a full rack. You don't buy Oxide 1U at a time, you buy it a rack at a time. By designing the entire rack as a cohesive unit, we can do a lot of things that you simply cannot do in the 1U form factor. There is a running joke that we talk about our fans all the time, and it's true. Because our sleds have a larger form factor than a traditional 1U, we can use larger fans. This means we can run them at a lower RPM, which means power savings. That's the deliberate design choice. But we also have gained accidental benefits from doing things like this: lower RPM also means that our servers are way quieter than others. That's pretty neat. Some early prospective customers literally asked if the thing is on when it was demo'd to them, because it's so quiet. Is that a reason to buy a server? Not necessarily, but it's just a fun example of some of the things that end up happening when you re-think a product as a whole, rather than as an integration exercise.
The rack doesn't require FTEs?
Versus Chrome: tab groups, vertical tabs, collections, much better sleep/offloading of tabs, great synchronization across devices, "CoPilot" built in. I use Edge across Windows, macOS, iOS and iPadOS because of the collections. At the time Chrome was trialing tab groups but they were broken garbage and I haven't checked since.

Invariably someone is going to note that with this extension and that extension and various canary flags you can do similar things, but I'd rather not have the nuisance.

Edge actually has its uses. It is unfortunate that Microsoft is tainting it -- something the company just seems unable to stop itself from doing -- as it should sell itself.
The money they received doesn't account for the inflation, system costs et cetera.

They may of got more money but the actual monetary value is a lot less. So yes, an increase in sum, but less in value.

They describe Transformer++ as "A Transformer with an improved architecture, namely rotary positional encodings and SwiGLU MLP", no linear bias terms and RMSNorm instead of LayerNorm.

But modern transformers have many more tricks than that. Such as pre-norm, sparse better use of residual layers, sparse attention masks and so on.

Corner stores are gone, supermarkets took over and you have even less variety, and you want to squeeze MORE fresh fruits and vegetables out of your neighborhood? Be my guest and eat only packaged foods so they do make those high margins, don't restock any fresh food and I hope you vote with your wallet to make these supermarkets go out of business. Then you can buy nothing but high margin foods at your gas station.
Tether is an unaudited black box, so no one really knows what their reserves are composed of. Tether's also been caught lying about their reserves numerous times [1], so it would be insane to think they're a credible store of value.

You might want some sort of mention in the website copy about it being self-hostable (unless I'm misinterpreting the docs). The website copy talks about your hosting and the related benefits (as it rightly should), but I didn't see any mention of self-hosting so I almost didn't click through to the docs to see that local development is possible.

The issues were apparent since 2000.

The vast majority of Evergrande's outstanding foreign debt is from >2012.

BlackRock, HSBC, and UBS poured in about $3B of the $25B in 2021 alone...

And, I'm sorry - if you didn't see a risk doing that in 2021 - you're gonna lose all your money sooner or later.

In BlackRock's case - it was primarily for 401k-ers for exposure to Chinese bonds. I think the US should've made it illegal - and probably will soon - to offer a product like that.

Why anyone in the US would want exposure to Chinese bonds that don't even have good yields for "diversity" is incredible. Up next - Russian and Venezuelan 100-year bonds at 0% interest!
I was surprised when I learned Gavin Belson (Matt Ross) wrote and directed one of my favorite movies of the past few years, Captain Fantastic
Yeah as far as I’m aware that’s the solution. Though then the market can’t use the deposit to make money for themselves, and needs to rely on other mechanisms like trading fees etc. So really it comes down to how much the market cares about the accuracy of long tail events.
Looks good! There's a lot of moving parts for such a wide array of functionality, so this looks like a lot of really good work! If nothing else, it's nice to have a game engine that focuses on tabletop games, that doesn't necessarily focus on how to render said games.

All of that said, as someone who has developed a card and dice game, using plain html and javascript to create a programmatic version that could be played online, I am still having a hard time figuring out how to recreate that kind of thing, using your system.

Based on the docs, I can see it supports cards. And based on my experience developing the same basic gameplay, I can see that it's general-purpose enough to be suited for a wide variety of games (and my game is simplistic, so it should be possible). Feels like it should be a pretty straightforward build, with a robust enough library, and yours seems to be fairly robust, so my thinking here is that a step-by-step tutorial would go a long way. I know enough to see why you've chosen the abstractions you have (Actions, Flows, selections, conditions, prompts, etc), but without seeing them constructed, it's hard to know where to make the specific changes I would want to make.

Anyway, just one opinion! It may feel more straightforward to other people. But I don't think I would personally make much headway with it, without a tutorial.
I always tell people if you can't be fired, then you also can't be promoted to something else more interesting. If someone can take over for you that means you can go do something else.

It has never come across that way as an end user. As it has always been on some terrible change or option where the answer should be "no, now bugger off forever", I have viewed "not now" as the same as "ask me again later":

an explicit thumb in the eye and statement by the software developers that they think their mandate takes priority over my preferences and that I am not qualified to make decisions about the software I run.

The originally posted article is about new 3D GPU-based backend in the GTK, which is unrelated to games.

Hardware accelerated 3D graphics is the best way to render pretty much everything on modern hardware, games or not games. High-resolution displays are omnipresent. Even cell phones often have FullHD or more pixels, like 2796×1290 or 2556×1179 in the iPhones.
