Just went through this for a large site installation. We had to reach out to vendors and have them send us trial units because performance data was impossible to find, it was incredibly time consuming setting up a proof of concept for each vendor AP. Also, this is only really an option open to people who are doing big deployments because it isn’t worth the vendor’s time otherwise.

I’d recommend looking at Juniper Mist for high congestion areas because their auto mode actually works and adapts to changes in the environment.

I do have to ask though, do you really need enterprise Wi-Fi? It’s not very neighbourly but buying a high end consumer Wi-Fi router that lets you pick DFS channels, picking the least congested channel, and setting transmit power as high as it will go should do the job in an apartment.
This exact question is currently being litigated, and using copyrighted material when training an LLM or AI model without permission could very well be illegal.
I've bought half a dozen boxes from this company -- mostly for the weird grains in weird shapes -- and will probably buy more. Yeah, it's expensive for a box of pasta, 2-3x the price of "normal" pasta. But that difference is 3 or 4 bucks a box, and each box is at least 4 meals. I am happy to pay $1 more per meal for a better experience (and that is a generous overestimate of the true additional cost). Grotesque feels like an overstatement.
> Possibility to use single axis sun tracking mounts for panels, so a unit of capacity generates more electricity each year

I read an HN comment earlier this week that noted that solar panels are so cheap that is is more economical to just install more panels than to pay for the expense and maintenance of moving parts. I.e. you can generate the same amount of extra energy that tracking would give you by adding more fixed untracked panels. And fixed panels with have no moving parts which makes maintenance super cheap.

A quick glance around at internet articles seems to confirm this take.
To be fair, I am inexperienced. I haven't done much programming in stack based languages and I don't often like to pull the age card but in my defense I have not lived as long as some other people on here as I just turned 18 and have not been programming for that long. Still, it's really cool that some people like my language, and it doesn't really bother me that some people think it's worse -- I just wrote it because I thought it was interesting.
Can we please stop pretending that Ruby/Rails is in any way a good choice for software that needs to be safe?

I do understand that it is what it is and GitLab has to deal with it, but going forward, can we stop pretending a language and framework that prioritizes cleverness and hidden control flow is better than something more boring?

If I sound overly-annoyed it's because I have to work on a production Ruby codebase where I can absolutely see a scenario in which we have similar issues just waiting to be exploited, because someone thought seventeen layers of abstraction made the code super extensible.
There is not much to gain from having a new two-letter gTLD instead of existing all-purpose three-letter TLDs (say, `.com`, `.ooo` or `.xyz`). Especially given that every TLD needs a registry, and `.zz` would be a particularly extra-special gTLD that needs a special procedure to select the registry. Better to make it a reserved TLD if it is ever going to be used.

Nitter currently relies on the mass generation of guest accounts, a weird anonymous form of account that was only supported by old versions of the Twitter app. Creation of them was totally disabled today, so every nitter instance will be dead in under 30 days (when they expire). Scrapers apparently also relied on this, as every public nitter instance was being hammered by scrapers earlier. Instances will probably shut down quite soon unless someone finds another way to create tens of thousands of accounts in an automated fashion for free.

Public figures, such as politicians, business leaders, etc. can and have served as role models. Now it's considered with it to show disdain for morality and empathy, or at best not mention it, and to demonstrate unpredictability and disruption. Look at Boris Johnson and Donald Trump, for example.

When has Biden provided that kind of leadership? With the obvious exception of Trump, even the worst of presidents provided it before. Where are at least some business leaders? Look at the people running Silicon Valley and Wall Street - either silent (Tim Cook, etc.) or disruptive and amoral (Musk, Altman, Thiel, Dimon, too many to mention).

The good people are failing young men (and women) by hiding and not offering an alternative, healthy perspective.
They've been doing this for decades.

What was that app they had in the 2000s? You used to install it into your computer and had some sort of megaphone icon in the app tray and would alert you whenever anyone was talking about Israel online.

Oh I see, that's neat. That makes way more sense that what I was thinking.
I think that is probably an exaggeration. I don't see a lot of reason to believe they have the most advanced machine and I don't buy that their PR machine exists to ameliorate ethical lapses. PR/Propaganda is power and all regimes want power.

I've seen incredible amounts of (justfied) anti-Israeli action press, so I don't particularly believe they have a wildly successful PR machine either.

China, the US, and Russia are all clearly advanced. Facebook alone got significant press for weighing in substantially on elections across the world. Twitter, before Elon, was used to coordinate against despotic regimes all over the world. Hollywood alone has incredible soft and hard power.

NSO group's Pegasus, and their selling software to despotic regimes so that they can find and torture/murder/scare journalists is much more telling of Israel's ethical core, as is their bombing of associated press offices.

Seeking power is not mens rea, directly harming those who would report your misdeeds is.
I would think that case is at least meaningfully in my favour. The anti-steering ruling supports my point that while Apple can charge whatever commission it wants on its payment platform, this should not entitle it to ban or tax competing means of trade discovered through the platform.

The ruling is meaningfully weaker than what I'd expect from DMA, but this is natural, the legal case was argued on existing law, DMA is new.
Urbit now has a lower entry barrier with comets than when it first came out I believe. I am going to look into Ur.

I tried out an experience last night called "SandboxVR" which would be the perfect customer for such a system - you walk into a room equipped with motion-tracker cameras, the staff straps you into VR gear, then you play an immersive video game with your friends. The games are designed so you don't need to move around much, because a flashing red grid appears in your vision if you get too close to the walls; with a moving floor, they could give you a lot more freedom to explore.
In addition, the routers installed by ISPs are rarely updated and these firewalls will be very vulnerable. Until I get a router with NAT for IPv6, I'm not going to do anything with IPv6, I will even to change ISP if necessary.

It's weird, as I recall with strong params one of the only things it really makes you decide is whether a value is a scalar, array, or Hash. You can certainly allow a value to be scalar or array, but it's not very natural in strong params.

I mostly hate the way strong params gets used - it's a bad compromise between letting Ruby people do Ruby things and trying to plug up a category of vulnerability that's been biting rails apps for a decade. Now I do all my api definitions in openapi and it's way easier. I haven't tried it with a rails app but I think it'd work well there.
I agree with Mozilla, but they have bigger internal problems than external ones. They started losing market share back whenever and their response was to try and clone Chrome as closely as they could. So now the options are we can either use semi-Chrome with less resources behind it or real a Chrome-based browser (plug for Brave!).

They're in a strategic dead end, the reasons to pick Firefox are very slim. They should have committed harder to being extension-heavy. At least then they'd be interesting and even if niche they'd have a niche to operate in. Now it is just hard to see why they should be relevant. It is helpful to have someone complaining about what everyone else is doing wrong, but they don't need the budget they have to do that. I manage to fill that role on a pro-bono basis.
I'm not sure what you mean with the bug class; Java serialization? If so I think that's been something where common advice is not to use it for 20+ years.

Maybe Spring has had issues. Like I said I don't actually like Java and all the annotation stuff. I avoid it, but it's still going to be one of the more robust choices you can make since every major enterprise uses it. Java had log4shell, which was pretty bad, and probably wouldn't have happened if Java had had string macros. It's one of the reasons why Scala is a better language: people use things like compile time macros which prevents those sorts of mistakes. It looks like akka-http for example has only had DoS vulnerabilities (e.g. getting zip bombed) + some niche stuff like request smuggling if you used it to build a reverse proxy or usage of directory listing on Windows.

That said, sure, large frameworks all have bugs. But not being able to tell whether you are dealing with a string or an array in your business logic is just silly.

I need enterprise wifi because I want a bullet-proof network.

Do I actually need it?

Eh, no, I suppose.

But I can't stop myself from not doing it.

Also, in terms of tangibility, my 2.4ghz is so abysmal due to congestion I'm willing to do anything to maximize it. Even Aruba falls flat with this band but Ruckus does an *okay* job. It's obvious that AP performance is a factor here.

My 4x4 Wifi 6 Aruba 535 gets completely shut out by a 2x2 beige colored clunker Ruckus 510 that I got for $40. It's obvious that price, features or "newness" aren't things I can rely on to give me a good picture.

Aruba outperforms my other models -- I've spent a lot of money just testing this out myself using the use case of 40 competing SSIDs.

(According to my research juniper doesn't perform particularly well. Check the Packet6 report that Ruckus cites. Probably biased, but what else is there? "Data sheets" that don't really say much about anything. I havent purchased a test AP, though.)
Amazing the number of people on HN take any criticism of some program as dislike for helping those less fortunate.

No it wouldn't. The fact that it will pass through every state infinite times doesn't mean it will do it in the same order each time. Each digit of pi has only 10 possible states, but it never loops.

Hi Rasbt, thanks for writing the new guide and the upcoming book on LLM, another must buy book from Manning.

Just wondering are going to include any specific section or chapter in your LLM book on RAG? I think it will be very much a welcome addition for the build your own LLM crowd.

> It allows for 30,000 dynamic rules

That is not what we mean by dynamic filters. From https://developer.chrome.com/blog/improvements-to-content-fi...

> However, to support more frequent updates and user-defined rules, extensions can add rules dynamically too, without their developers having to upload a new version of the extension to the Chrome Web Store.

What Chrome is talking about is the ability to specify rules at runtime. What critics of Manifest V3 are talking about is not the ability to dynamically add rules (although that can be an issue), it is the ability to add dynamic rules -- ie rules that analyze and rewrite requests in the style of the blockingWebRequest permission.

It's a little deceptive to claim that the concerns here are outdated and to point to vague terminology that sounds like it's correcting the problem, but on actual inspection turns out to be entirely separate functionality from what the GP was talking about. It's almost like the Chrome team deliberately decided to call these "dynamic rules" so they could claim that Chrome supported them and muddy the issue, even though Chromes "dynamic rules" have nothing to do with support for a blockingWebRequest API. But I don't want to be conspiratorial.

> Giving this ability to extensions can slow down the browser for the user. These ads can still be blocked through other means.

This is the debate; most of the adblocking community disagrees with your assertion. Chrome has been saying this for ages, but saying it doesn't make it true.

uBO maintains a list of some common features that are already not possible to support in Chrome (https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/uBlock-Origin-works-b...) and has written about features that are not able to be supported via Chrome's current V3 API (https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uBOL-home/wiki/Frequently-as...). Of particular note are filtering for large media elements (I use this a lot on mobile Firefox, it's great for reducing page size), and top-level filtering of domains/fonts.

Chrome could of course add support for some of this -- Chrome could implement more filter controls for analyzing headers and request sizes, but as far as I know that support hasn't been added yet. And even if that support does eventually get added, this all glosses over the bigger issue that devs have been saying from the beginning, which is that it's ridiculous to make every innovation in adblocking dependent on Chrome explicitly adding new APIs to support each individual use-case. The model that Chrome is moving towards is one where every new kind of filtering metric that devs want to use requires asking Google for permission to use it and waiting for Chrome to implement it.

Useful advice from the VR native: get on platform, harness up, then put on headgear.

Note that "dynamic rules" as specified here are not the same as what GP was talking about. The API does not support dynamic rules in the way that Firefox/V2 users use that term.

It reminds me of the Netflix series “Carol and the End of the World”. Upon realizing the world is ending, some people go nuts and travel the world and join cults and run theough their bucket list.

Neither is painted as being better than the other, just different approaches to mortality.

The developer had the opportunity to approve when it put the app up for its list price.

IMO it is easier to see why this is OK if you imagine Apple weren't tying a waiver for this fee to being unable to inform the user about alternate payment platforms. That tie is obviously anti-competitive but is therefore distracting.

I don't think `.internal` to be intuitively understandable either. In spite of other shortcomings, `.home` and `.corp` convey its private-use natures much better than `.internal`. (But they won't be suitable for anything other than that.)
The study of it is often silly and trivial, because it generally rests on characterizing the output of a very few corporations [*] with arbitrary, associative observations, then declaring that those observations tell us something interesting about the consumers of the material i.e. everyone. This is silly.

The rest is people competing on effusively praising of some obscure pocket of pop culture, with the aim of remarketing it with the academic as the (paid) authority. That's trivial.

I have to say that it's a bad sign that only defenses one can come up with of an academic field of study is that it's also a part of "this civilization", and that everyone who dismisses it's importance is just trying to impress people. Which makes them even sillier than Madonna studies, I guess, because trying to impress people by not talking nonsense is actually bad and a sign of insecurity.

[*] I remember when Ben Bagdikian was warning us that only 50 corporations determined the majority of what we read and watched. Now you could get the men who get a veto over most of what we see and say to fit inside a medium-sized bathroom. I resent cultural critics trying to diagnose me based on their financial incentives.
