Works fine for me and has since I first learned of it months ago.
(Not an expert at all! Just guessing at this and mentioning some stuff from memory... someone please correct me if any of this is totally wrong, which it might very well be.)

It's not super clear to me how this is different from content-addressable networking/storage/routing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content-addressable_storage) like in the IPFS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/InterPlanetary_File_System. I think Freenet uses something similar: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freenet

I believe DHTs are a similar abstraction over IP networks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table), used widely in Bittorrent now or the defunct CoralCDN.

I think the reasons those systems "failed" (or didn't hyperscale) is that they mostly address niche needs, and also make prevention of undesirable materials (child porn) difficult.

In a world of IP laws, corporate data centers, and finite resources, having a 1:1 mapping between a "host" and some sort of "owner" is very useful. For the stuff MOST people want (the latest TV shows, video games, music), the commercial CDNs work well enough, at lower latency, and with high reliability. Those systems map cleanly and easily onto business relationships, with customers paying content producers who in turn pay hosts.

For the niche stuff, whether legal or not, distributed storage where "content" is spread across many hosts owned by different people makes distributing the responsibilities and costs very difficult. For popular torrents that everyone wants to download and seed, that's not so much an issue because there are thousands of copies floating around. But for the less-popular stuff, not having a permanent addressable host means that any bit of content always has the risk of disappearing. You can work around that by having always-on servers/seedboxes, but then you could've just used their IP address to begin with in a DHT. I think the content-addressed systems (IPFS, Freenet, etc.) historically tended to suffer from a lack of critical mass, not enough of a network effect where the network was actually useful for most people. So they end up primarily sharing pirated goods and child porn, which in turn means fewer people are willing to participate (for fear of getting implicated in some dragnet or another). I guess in a way crypto systems and blockchains are similar in that they're interesting in theory but have little real-world usefulness, so tend to attract the dredges.

IMO these systems just don't solve real-world problems that most people have. And their solutions actively interfere with day-to-day commerce and blur the lines of responsibilities and budgets for content hosting, making commercial uptake harder. That doesn't completely stop their use (like some game patchers used to use Bittorrent and DHTs before CDNs became really cheap, and Cloudflare still has their IPFS gateway), but those mainly seem like experiments to me and not popular use cases.
Yes, I had activated the virtual environment. Thanks for the guide. It works without problems. I had used `virtualenv venv -p /usr/local/bin/python3.12` in my setup. Yours seems to be a better way.
That said, it does feel like PLEX hsa been introducing better features and cleaner UI since jellyfin launched. I wonder if they keep track of Jellyfin installs on local system. Competition is good.

> penalizing vehicle tonnage seems like a weird way of achieving it

There's probably not that much variation in automobile density, so regulating those that are heavier is a good proxy for those that are larger.

And even if the number of parking spots is the same, a row of little cars people can see over and between is better than a row of big SUVs that they can't.
I wanted to fault them for this too, but it's an inescapable result. Liability premium costs always moves in lockstep with the rate of coverage, as it has to by probability laws for an insurance company to be viable.
I work in insurance. Local cash value is normal. It’s not a Craigslist lookup, it uses industry standard published tables and is the same across all companies. People are frequently shocked that they are underwater on their cars so much, but it’s worth what it’s worth, car insurance has no reason to cover loans. As you found out, GAP is insurance on the loan itself, most lenders will strongly encourage GAP coverage or even mandate it.
I have some very good opinion of this. I work in big tech and I might be a canonical example of some users who no longer find Quora interesting. From 2012 to about 2014 I was absolutely hooked to Quora spending anywhere between 2 to 4 hours every day. At that time I was a young professional in my early 30s, newly married and just at the beginning of my tech career after grad school. I used to love the questions posted on the forum which seemed very relevant to me e.g. how to build a career in tech, dating/relationship advice, tourism advice etc. I was hooked.

Fast forward 10 years from then. I am a 40 year old middle aged guy. Still working in tech albeit at a Senior level; with one school going kid and have a mortgage. I still visit Quora occasionally but am hard pressed to find any content that is interesting and appropriate for my age. It seems that they are still showing me questions which were mostly relevant to my younger self 10 years back and not now. There is practically no content or discussion in that forum that can attract and keep a 40 year old middle aged guy. Its just that I evolved but they didn't. Not to mention the fact that they also became more annoying with all these "promoted", "relevant" questions intermixed within the same page. I think their lack of ability to evolve over time absolutely finished the product. My two cents.
No, relying on the black hole of bug reporting mechanisms INSTEAD of articles will.
Yeah, hence the "in theory". In practice, titles and roles are often weird on film sets. Don't even get me started on "associate producers"...
Where do you see that? I thought Unity was having developers handle all of it through the URP via Polyspatial which does convert it.

I can see how you could write a bad full-screen app though. Many ways to disorient in addition to inefficient draws. The app store approval process is only going to help so much there.
It's simple, one can make good money maintaining bad software.
Yes, I did this at my startup. Fast forward a few years, and now the company has more Rust code than Python, and the majority of the company's IP is in Rust.

I suggest beginning with small, one-off things that don't have much impact. People, even developers, tend to shy away from things that aren't familiar. By introducing Rust in a small, low-risk way, it helps people get familiar with it. They get to build familiarity with building Rust projects, navigating the project structure, and reading docs. I submit pull requests that get people to read Rust code, even if it's just to say "looks good". Their familiarity builds slowly over time, meaning they'll be less triggered by seeing Rust in a larger, more impactful project down the road.

How do you boil a software developer? Slowly.

If they give Rust a chance and your team has a champion to guide them, they'll see its merits. I think a lot of people come to Rust for the performance, but that's not why they stay.
Don't get me wrong, the insurance industry writ large played a huge and active role in shaping the current hellscape. But this is still putting the onus on auto insurers for what is fundamentally an issue with the healthcare system.
Do it. Then get personal liability for your net worth on top of it. The peace of mind knowing that no one can sue you for more than you're worth is priceless.
Oh, nice, thanks. I haven't been using github recently, it looks like this option was added ~1.5y ago.
So she was a pedestrian when she was hit (she's OK, but messed up two years of her life). This makes me wonder if it's worth owning some crappy car even if you never drive it, just for the privilege of having auto insurance...

Anyway, yes health covers it but they are first in the line getting reimbursed, even before the lawyer- which I think sucks, I mean what am I paying them for?
this, i hope they are not wasting time on the protocol which is deprecated

just like I hope Evolution will rewrite the exchange handling by that point
I can confirm shortly, but I believe you don’t actually need those installed locally. That might be a mistake in our docs! Have you tried the docker setup without those tools?
It would be interesting to do this with different delays to see how the noise level increases as the delay increases, then once you have a bunch of images recovered, make an animation of the image getting more and more noisy as the time increases, would also be interesting to compare the results for different ambient temperatures, how much more feasable would this be during January in Norway vs August in Texas?
He’s right, people who always talk about they don’t use sites that require Javacript adds about as much to the conversation as people who show up in television conversations and say “I haven’t owned a television in 20 years, do people still watch TV?”
for long standing communities, ideally the government would offer voluntary buyouts if they can’t find someone willing to cover the insurance premium.

they already do the same in flooding zones.

but yes, people who live in fire-prone areas may take a loss. encouraging people to anticipate these losses is part of a functioning market. if they can live somewhere risky without financial risk, we only encourage future people to do the same.
Those are both satire pieces.
TIL about Object.groupBy and Map.groupBy
TLDR: How to extend Bezier curves to a graph in vector graphics editors.
oh yeah, 100%. I don't exactly think it's optimal for my country's 82 YO incumbent president to continue to run for 4 more years either. Frustrating realities of a 2 party system, you're just picking the lesser bad instead of a proper represenative of your values.
It's pretty much an unfixable problem at this point given that we also have lost the ability to do infrastructure projects with anything resembling a sane budget or time table.
Yeah my current washing machine is a refurbished old school top loader. Easy to install, wash cycle is 45 min, gets clothes super clean. It's definitely not water efficient but at least it doesn't take 3 hours to actually clean your clothes. Who's got time for that? I can get 6 loads of laundry done leisurely on a Sunday.
If you want to wear a mask; great! May it bring you comfort.

If you want to force me to wear one, then there's a problem: my breathing issues cause me to drown in snot when i wear a mask. Should I need legal waivers to live with my physical disabilities?

During COVID lockdowns, I couldn't go into a neighboring county because they had mask mandates with fines; and I didn't care to have the argument with the authorities there.
FWIW, that's exactly what I meant.

The thing about data, unlike many common objects (ignoring 3d printers), is that you can easily copy data you control. So the fact that the fridge tells you "as an additional comfort in your pregnancy, I would add X" (if it even says that clearly) does not mean it also don't send data to other people.

Again, this is not a science fiction example. Many companies have successfully sent personal data to other companies or leaked that somehow to the Internet.

Personally this still makes me uncomfortable, even if I know this cannot be 100% avoided in today's world. So if I can avoid volunteering additional data to some company in exchange for voice activated lights, I'm happier. Maybe it's just me, though... but probably not.
According to this only a handful of states have laws against it.

“superior voice quality”

Superior to what? With VoLTE the only calls I make these days that sound bad are people on POTS lines.
What results would you expect to get if you simply put the whole setup in a regular freezer? Or if you just tried it during winter
Cost of processing vs most customers ignoring them, based on my experience with the biggest one left that I know of (Menards 11% and the Home Depot equivalent).
It has nothing to do with decorum. It is simply a way to point out that someone’s assertion is unwarranted by presented evidence (often none) and aggressive.

It’s far better faith to ask for some evidence than to rebuttal with “No, you’re wrong”, which is equally dumb.

If you can’t support a claim, you shouldn’t assert it as a fact.
Right. People seem to not want inflation to apply to appliances.

E.g. a decent toaster in 1984 in the UK was about £18. That's £72 now. Only posh people spend £72 on a toaster. Most people I imagine want to pay no more than £40.

Microwaves were around £200. That's £805 now. Nobody is spending £800 on a microwave.
The thing is, what the original article actually describes as "hardware knowledge" in their examples doesn't even touch on electrical engineering. At most it's stuff you'd expect to learn in an operating systems class, which many CS graduates will take. OP isn't close to asking "wtf is flip flop?" it's more like "wtf is select()?".
I like this line of thinking! We should be able to set up differential equations that express how traffic flows through the process network and solve performance like a fluid dynamics problem!
not to mention the road damage caused is to the fourth power of the axle load
The absurdity of defining a psychoactive drug was played out in the UK when the Psychoactive Substances Bill was passing through Parliament in 2016 [0]. Indeed, food (spices etc.) is consciousness altering.

> The Act was due to come into force on 6 April 2016. It was delayed indefinitely due to a lack of clarity as to what the meaning of "psychoactive" is, and what substances are covered by the law. It eventually came into effect on 26 May 2016.

> You essentially can’t write rust at all until you understand rust references, lifetimes (implicit and explicit) and the borrowchecker.

You can if you're willing to use stuff like .clone() and the interior mutability types. In Rust, you can tell when code has been written to be a bit sloppy because it has that kind of boilerplate. And the compiler checks are a huge help when it comes to refactoring the code and making it cleaner and better-performing.
For programming questions, the answer is always "it depends" even if it doesn't really depend.
I'm getting about 3x the angular diameter of the Sun from Earth, so not particularly huge.
where do they get the data to publish in the industry standard tables?
Dynamic Metacompilation with Truffle (2021) [video]
I would assume these are entirely net new use cases. I also don’t know why this wouldn’t be developed in localized cloud regions. Aws, for instance, running in India is locally compliant with regulations. It’s cheaper for aws to comply with Indian regulations than it is for a random company, or worse a government, to build aws from whole cloth in India (nothing here is specific to India, just used as an example).

Before anyone steps in in favor of on prem vs aws, I’ve worked at cloud providers, building megacorp on prem, and migrating said on prem to the cloud, and building native cloud companies. Execution risks and the enormous high energy state of building full service on prem solutions make it much more reasonable to use cloud providers for stuff like this, and the economics of capital investment, the accounting of things, etc, makes it unreasonable for governments to NOT use cloud providers.
> I found rust significantly harder to learn than C

language itself maybe, but you also need to learn ecosystem, libs, build systems, testing.

Benchmark could be: how fast you can learn and bootstrap some type of app of your choice: high performance DB or torrent server, etc.

> You essentially can’t write rust at all until you understand rust references, lifetimes (implicit and explicit) and the borrowchecker

why is that? You can write rust the same way you write C but with nicer syntax, standard lib and build system and more potential to future expansion.
You had to fight the install process to get that local account, though.
That makes a lot of sense. What are the policies on underinsured motorist coverage minimums?
That's something they did in one of the original papers - "Lest We Remember: Cold Boot Attacks on Encryption Keys" by Halderman et al, with an earlier version of DDR, think it was DDR2.

It's something I'd like to try too. Good point re. the temperature also, I bought a PT100 temperature probe I need to use to measure the surface temperature of the RAM chip too.
I should be able to decide that I don't care about this type of privacy. Sure there are people out there that could be harmed by this. I don't believe in the argument that you can't have a market with both ways, one where you can't opt in and other where you can. I should be able to choose to give my medical data to companies if there are ways to improve my lifestyle and quality from that. And to me that is exciting. I have been lucky to be born in a place where religion and other things like that don't matter. I see a lot of problems and ways life could be optimised. I notice daily how I spend so much time constantly on things that could just be automated away. And it is horrible knowing I am spending so much time on that.

We live in this World for a very limited time. If things can be automated, they should so we can choose exactly what we want to do with this time.
The UI is about the same, or an evolution.

It’s the UX that is a damn travesty.
Do you think the Texas grid is not regulated?

California has more outages than Texas.

There is a difference between regulation and subsidies.

Texas has much cheaper electricy than California:

https://quickelectricity.com/texas-and-california-energy-sid...

> Texas is the top producer of renewable electricity in the US, followed by California. Both states are rich in renewable sources and actively working to expand their generation capacity.

Edit: Texas is not a free market! It has subsidies & regulations.
I just don't like having large vehicles around as a pedestrian and cyclist, anything that looks like I would get crushed under the car instead of over the hood, and don't mind them being specifically targetted/penalized.
Couldn't agree more. We've been having good luck working with TSX-templated Vue components (using "render functions"[1]) after getting fed up with gaps in VTI back in the day – most of https://radiopaper.com is built in this way and we're closing in on it all being so. We haven't run into any issues with Vue's (alleged) lack of ability to optimize TSX templates in certain ways as opposed to traditional Vue templates – maybe comes down to the nature of our use cases – but our view is that this trades off against many other benefits:

- File extensions are all .tsx, and thus work with bog-standard editor tooling and syntax highlighting

- We're more confident about typechecking in templates, because template code is 1 minor transformation away from raw typescript, and basic `tsc` has understood TSX well for years now. Up and down the component stack, it feels like we understand typings better without "gaps" at each template layer.

- Scoping of values in templates is easier to understand. Everything you write is what it says it is, it's just whatever's in the same scope as the template. There are no transformations, no omissions of various words, no magic.

- It's easier to compose templates from small easy-to-understand parts in the same file, without fragmenting code across many small components. Not everything needs to live in a `<template>` tag separate from your `<script>` tag.

- When React folks have joined the team they've had no problem ramping up.

- By the way, in Vue TSX you just say "class" not "className" which is refreshing.

Feel free to email me at evan at radiopaper dot com if any of this interests you – we're currently working on expanding the team and looking for like-minded people interested in contributing.

I'd say maybe a third of people I know don't have cars. In America. That's not a "basic necessity of life", especially when we're talking about well-developed regions like the west coast.
Twelve years ago, Quora was a Silicon Valley darling and notoriously had one of the more difficult interview processes. How far they’ve fallen.
That, and I have seen AI answers in the mix too, often wildly wrong or completely off topic.

So you look for a question, and all the answers are not even relevant, and often completely off topic or wrong.

I think my unreasonable expectations for applications to be scriptable today comes from my experience with the Amiga.

I didn't know the words "interprocess communication" when I first encountered Arexx and Aress ports. I came from a mostly MS-DOS and Windows 3.1 background. I hadn't used much multitasking software up to that point.

Once I grokked why Arexx ports could be cool and useful I had a terrible time trying to explain them to non-"Amiga people". I remember a friend asking to be shown the "Arexx port" on my Amiga 1200 trying to explain it was a software construct and not a physical hardware device. I'm not sure if knowing the words "interprocess communication" would have helped, but it couldn't have hurt.

I feel like I've spent a significant part of my sysadmin career making dodgy hacks to bolt-on IPC functionality to applications that don't properly expose any. Fortunately it feels like it happens a lot less today than, say, 25 years ago.
We are building AI first observability copilot as a startup; check out @infrastackai and @msefaoruc on Twitter. We would like to meet other people who are interested in observability. we are looking for new teammates
People interested in and passionate about transportation in cities have long been warning that it doesn't solve anything if you just replace every combustion engine car with a (likely bigger) electric car, and incentives for them are wholly absurd in urban spaces.
The average flight is not half empty. If a half empty flight is profitable, then the profit of the average flight could not possibly be one ticket.
the BMW i3 fits that, as did the Fiat 500e?

(i had a 2014 BMW i3, and it was super weird and super useful for just such situations, including suburbia in my case)
I find this very strange, Microsoft has a lot of big internal high-performance services written in C#.

You have to be intentional about some things - largely making sure objects are very short-lived or very long-lived, to avoid long GX pauses. But .NET performs much better than it did 10-15 years ago and I can't think of a fundamental reason why you'd rewrite in Rust.
There was absolutely no way I could walk into anything but the most decrepit used car dealer and walk out with a car anywhere near what I previously owned for what they gave me, completely unrelated to whether or not I had a loan. The KBB was around 20k dealer. They gave me the crumb not fully loaded non F-sport (a $5k package) private party low end. $15k was shockingly low. Mine had like, 15k miles and the 15k range had over 100k. Their criteria seemed to be "Lexus I of some sort, cheapest." I don't think the IS250 was even normally that low.

Maybe it's what they all do, but it sucks. And it's not what a lot of people expect.
To me paying to disable ads is a fair deal.
I'm a bit surprised at this, too.
