No, I think the people of these regions should have been allowed to decide their own fate, which then should be internationally recognized. This is, of course, impossible now because the war means that the demographics have shifted substantially and irreversibly. But this would have at least been a viable path forward in 2014. The problem is that nobody wants this sort of democracy unless they like the answer they're going to get.

Like imagine if in 2020 the January 6th rioters had somehow managed to overthrow the government and get Trump in office again. It would seem, to me, perfectly reasonable for e.g. California to then say 'No thank you.' and refuse to acknowledge his authority. That probably would have led to a civil war but if you're asking what I think - it's that people in such scenarios (which, granted, are not so easy to define) ought be allowed to decide their own fate.
This is what makes America great. Things like this never happen in my country..
(if you are a suspect).

there are a multitude of legitimate reasons to talk to police without a lawyer. e.g. you are a victim, you are helping a victim, you are being friendly.

The real advice is not to try to talk your way out of a crime because it rarely works.
Why would they need evidence if they have a confession? The cops aren't going to do extra work they don't need to.
It can be. If my bicycle has no lock at all, I will not leave on a outdoor parking near the central railway station, because I know for sure it will be stolen. The value here comes not from imperfect security per se, but from my ability to predict the outcome. Now if my bicycle has a meh lock, the chance of it being snatched suddenly increases.

Just because you prefer one thing over another doesn't mean the other is bad.

Not everyone is scrolling through endless feeds, either - I'm more likely to play a game. There are more than two things you can do with a phone.
Ask HN: Embedding PDFs in My Web Application
I'm currently embedding PDFs using a simple iframe.

I can't use the Adobe PDF Embed API due to the legal requirements around our customer documents.

I'm looking into what the best options are regarding embedding a PDF with the ability to annotate and add highlighting and such (specifically highlighting excerpts we extract from the document).

I've looked into PDF.js, but it seems like it might be difficult to maintain. Apryse seems too enterprise focused for a startup. Foxit or PSPDFKit potentially?

Would love any recommendations or advice!
> A good portion of it just to fuck around in foreign countries against my wishes. How much more should they take?

Well, if we defunded the military 100% and let the world order go to shit and that's exactly how you want it then we'd still need to raise taxes to cover our deficit.

So go ahead and vilify the military all you want, it's your right. But at least be aware that getting rid of the military is not going to solve the issue.
According to the comments in the most recent post on this blog the author has passed away: https://castel.dev/post/research-workflow/

I stumbled on this blog recently when researching the same topic (nvim +latex). I found this more recent blog (https://www.ejmastnak.com/tutorials/vim-latex/intro/), by another author, inspired by this original author useful as well.

I found this blog post to be very helpful and the author was obviously a very good writer and I am sure he will be missed. Condolences to his friends and family.
An automatic video editor.

It should be cheap enough to deploy that it can be applied to relatively low-value content like video meeting recordings, so it can’t spend a lot of expensive GPU time analyzing video frames.

It also needs to be easily customizable for various content verticals and visual styling like branding and graphics overlays.

And everything is meant to be open sourced, so that’s fun!

I wrote about it on my employer’s blog here:

I can imagine the future memcpy CVE: "arguments to memcpy to regions not previously allocated or after having been freed can potentially cause security issues. Therefore we propose that memcpy check its arguments against this new list of valid memory addresses that we are now going to keep around..."

So what I mean is: how much performance are we giving up with this "fix" for qsort?

> Subsistence farmers have never been prolific producers of art or literature.

Almost every human group I've ever encountered has been prolific in the production of art. I think you may be confusing a certain conception of culture with culture itself, in a way that ensures certain social classes will seem more artistic than others, which I believe to be false.
Same with bun, it looks like node is leaving some performance on the table (maybe for backward compatibility or maybe because nobody bothered to improve it)
Find source now works quite ok with gimg.
> And of course the most no brainer way to roll it out in a fragmented landscape of US is to let banks be Oauth2 providers, as they are already tasked with KYC stuff and have a license to lose.

That doesn't stop banks from pulling all kinds of shit with their customers' identity or what they believe to be that. The amount of credit scams possible in the US is mind-boggling for me as an European.
Microsoft FrontPage (Express?), Clearly. I recall setting up the webdav stuff and php3 configs so you could use the % tags to write PHP, and push to the webserver all from inside FrontPage. Although that was circa 1999; I'm not sure when all the open source support came.
If you want a car without software you have to go back to the 1970s. By 1984 almost everything was fuel injected (and the last hold outs had very complex computers controlling the carburetor). there are open source fuel injection computers, but they are very limited as to what they support and often when you look close don't look very open.
I use sponsor block and it's really good, I like that it's community-driven but sometimes it's not available for videos so your solution sounds great.

I consult to a law firm as their founder-in-residence. For fun, I trained Llama 2 on all the non-client data of the firm so that people could ask it questions like "Who are the lawyers in Montreal who litigate American securities laws, what are their email addresses and what time is it where they are?" It's a njs app running on linode.

It's extremely simple, but people seem to find it useful.

You're still stuck carrying around a device designed to collect as much of your personal data as possible. Any kind of cell phone will cause your location to be tracked (where you live, where you work, where you sleep, who you're with, etc) but smart phones are packed with more sensors and many non-social media apps are filled with ads and do everything they can to steal as much of your data as possible too
"this article makes this sound like it's high-effort or high-skill."

It is.

Today.

Do not underestimate criminals. They have a full dark free market operating that you may be completely unaware of. The "Dark Web" is not just a media slogan. There is an entire economic ecosystem with high levels of specialization and structure already in it. There are already organizations smart enough to have people who can take this, productize it, and be the one selling the metaphorical shovels to the lower level criminals who buy this product and then take all the direct risks of doing the actual crime.

Today's high-skill attack is tomorrow's product.
Part of the magic here would be to get your team's hardware engineers to adopt a more software development style workflow.
If they want to stay out of the docket in the long run that would be an excellent move. Because if another 737 falls out of the sky and it happens over the United States you can bet that prison time for execs is going to be called for if they don't get to the bottom of this. Whether it will happen is another thing but they have run out of goodwill.

Yes, the US government is not Boeing.
Yes, Boeing is a private business.

I've made a couple games, though I am still having a hard time finding the soul of the game in the LLM and haven't released them; there's a historical roleplay game (that I plan to release soon), a storytelling game (the player tells stories to the LLM), a wander-a-world-aimlessly-and-chat game, and I never get further than 50% through the way of murder mystery games, though murder mysteries seem like an excellent structure.

I've built some abstract content development tools, generally focused on building larger content somewhat top-down (defining vibes, then details).

I'm working on a general project helper using the GPT-Vision, voice, and regular GPT. You setup the camera above your workspace, work on paper, and chat with the LLM while you do it. I think there's a lot of potential, but the voice stuff is quite hard to deal with... there's just a ton of stuff happening in parallel, and I find it very hard to code something reliable.

The stack I use is all in the browser, generally Next.js, Preact Signals, and my own code to call into GPT, Whisper, etc. I like having everything available for inspection, and I generally keep all the working bits visible somewhere. (This can be overwhelming when other people see it.)

But I haven't gotten over the deployment hump... the cost and complexity is a challenge. I've used Openrouter.ai recently in a project, and I think if I leaned on that more completely I'd find the release process easier.
Even with normal lights, many Americans don't seem to know or care about dipping headlights when appropriate. At least that's my observation as a kiwi been here for about 23 years. I get that some (many?) modern cars are supposed to do it automatically so maybe that's mine or my car's age talking but even 20 years ago I seldom saw anyone actively dip their lights when approaching on a mostly empty road.
You've just described the Better Business Bureau.

But guess what? There are plenty of underhanded businesses that could care less about a bad rating from the BBB, because the type of customer they're fleecing is not particularly savvy. Think elderly folks who are a little too trusting, or immigrants with a bit of a language barrier who aren't familiar with the BBB.
Hopefully, in a few years, someone will release an open-source library for javascript-based web development.
So, what's the equivalent of carpal tunnel syndrome, but for your neck? Because that's all I could think about while watching this.
It is worth mentioning that the reason UUIDv4 is strictly forbidden in some large decentralized systems is the myriad cases of collisions because the "random number" wasn't quite as random as people thought it was. Far too many cases of people not using a cryptographically strong RNG, both unwittingly or out of ignorance that they need to.

Less of an issue if you have total control of the operational environment and code base, but that is not always the case.
That statement is factually untrue. Law enforcement regularly withholds evidence without any repercussion.

More importantly, the previous comment is referring to plea bargaining. Essentially, law enforcement is using the poor state of the current justice system to pressure people without resources into accepting a guilty verdict because the system is so stacked against them. Imagine:

"Yeah, you can try to prove your innocence, but we're going to hold you until your arraingment. That'll be at least a few weeks, which will mean you'll lose your job and your apartment and your car will be repo'd. And you'll probably lose anyway, because we've got all this evidence against you, and we promise its bulletproof. Or... You can take this deal we're offering. You plead guilty, and we'll let you walk out of here today."
as is the United States :)

On the bright side, the AVP's "Lightning-like" connector for the arms means that it's at least theoretically possible for third parties to design whatever mounting hardware people want.
One caveat when watching screen captures like this is that they do not accurately capture the actual field of view, which is more akin to wearing an old pair of ski goggles.

The review from The Verge has a simulated view halfway down the page. The screen captures are deceptive and strongly favor Apple's marketing.

Put this comment up in every church and every retirement community. I haven’t searched, yet suspect this is the most common elderly fraud besides relatives manipulating them for their estate.
There are plenty of engineers who are not suited for leadership positions, and inability to detach from the technical details and focus on the bigger picture is certainly something you'd want to watch out for. No one said these jobs are easy, or that the right people are easy to find.

But it seems just as likely that an accountant as CEO would be unable to detach from irrelevant details about accounting systems, cost savings, tax classifications, or whatever it is that low-level accountants worry about.
I am in love with the floating panes. It reminds me the DOS tsr software.

A use case I found is keeping a k9s instance running while working on a jump host. Just jumping to the k9s floating pane on demand is priceless.
Pretty reasonable take on the pro/cons of bootstrapping vs vc. One thing to add (and the reason why I started a conference for bootstrapped founders) is that the stories that get pushed often times are ones of investment, the articles you see are on this fundraising process so many see that as the standard way. The more you delve into these stories of companies that survived off of growing on revenue, the more you see whats possible.
I am the current passive maintainer of the cpp crate: https://crates.io/crates/cpp / https://github.com/mystor/rust-cpp

I'm a bit disappointed that cxx gets all the glory and nobody likes the approach of the cpp crate.
Their assessment seems fair to me. There are lots of reasons that software can be bad. "Easy to misuse" is one of them. Not the same thing as a vulnerability.

I'm sure there are some Rust devs who would say the same thing about C. It's possible to write secure code in C, just as it's possible to write a sort with defined behavior using glibc.
> How is that different from cars that project information on the windshield?

Pass-through is done by cameras, not by window. This would more be like not having a actual windshield but a monitor. So you have the same issues of delay, ability for the device to malfunction and go completely black, glitches, etc. Though it is a bit worse, you have a very constrained field of view, so you aren't able to see any of the things from the side. Which you may not always consciously notice, but your brain sure does account for that information.
thanks, I didn't recognize the name
Ever?

You can talk to the police during normal goings on just fine. They are not going to interrogate you just for asking for directions. It's during an investigation that you should lawyer up.
Ok, so nothing whatsoever to do with security at all.
In my own experience, first-year GPA in college was a cakewalk. I had straight As until Junior year, then things got a bit more demanding and I was caught off-guard because college had been pretty easy up to that point. (Large state university).

It doesn't help that "not good" can include using a slightly slangy sentence ("laywer, dog") or sounding like you're asking permission or stating an opinion.
Weaveworks lays off 100% of staff. What was the headcount? ~50 people?
Israeli invasion killed alread > 1% of total population of Gaza, further 2-3% have been iniured.

According to you, did Israel get a blank check? Are they justified to do literally anything? Whst if the killed percentage will go to 5, 10 %. Still fine?
Agreed, but then you need to have some sort of blessed entity perform that KYC and create all the UX necessary to deal with losing your individual NFT Identity. And then of course you question what the point of having a public blockchain is at all. Use a private chain like Hyperledger instead with authorized validators being a consortium of government entities.
Then you will have a permanent war in Europe, get used to it and make yourself comfortable.

I don't like selling. I wanted a way to practice cold calling in a realistic way. I set up a phone number you can call and talk to an AI that simulates sales calls.

I ended up using it for more general purpose things because being able to have a hands-free phone call with an AI turned out to be pretty useful.

The sentence only has to change a little bit to become true.

"If you're found guilty, you could go away for life, but if you confess I'll go to the judge and offer less time"

Constitutional protections aren't there for the legal system, they're there for the accused.

Make it harder to convict, and maybe it'll get to a point where we realize we can't lock away societal problems, and have to start fixing root causes.
Tomato tomato :)

I would also assert that it's in fact _worse_ to be employed to protect and serve and instead do...whatever they claim they're doing...I have no expectation any random person on the street will be safe or lawful. I pay the salaries of police in exchange for the expectation that they'll be safe and lawful. And yet, they sure aren't.

So nope, I would definitely say cops are worse than criminals in this regard.
It's part of my plan so this card in particular is just under 12 bucks a year. But I have 4 sim cards in total: Phone with everything unlimited + another one for backup + one that's data only + the one I have hooked up to the esp.

The glibc team could certainly have been a little less guarded, but I'm not sure they were wrong. If CVEs are to be something other than a stamp collection, then they need to facilitate remediation. To do that, CVEs need to identify vulnerabilities specifically and not just in general.

For example, it wouldn't be useful to assign a CVE to the concept of SQLi, but it can be useful to assign CVEs to particular products exhibiting SQLi vulnerabilities. This fault isn't quite as general as that, but the argument for non-CVE-assignment goes along the same lines.

We've made a lot of data tooling things based on LLMs, and are in the process of rebranding and launching our main product.

1. sketch (in notebook, ai for pandas) https://github.com/approximatelabs/sketch

2. datadm (open source, "chat with data", with support for the open source LLMs (https://github.com/approximatelabs/datadm)

3. Our main product: julyp. https://julyp.com/ (currently under very active rebrand and cleanup) -- but a "chat with data" style app, with a lot of specialized features. I'm also streaming me using it (and sometimes building it) every weekday on twitch to solve misc data problems (https://www.twitch.tv/bluecoconut)

For your next question, about the stack and deploy:
We're using all sorts of different stacks and tooling. We made our own tooling at one point (https://github.com/approximatelabs/lambdaprompt/), but have more recently switched to just using the raw requests ourselves and writing out the logic ourselves in the product. For our main product, the code just lives in our next app, and deploys on vercel.
In my experience they will phrase it as “Do you know how fast you were going?” or “Do you know what the speed limit is?”, worded in such a way that ANY answer is incriminating.
it would only measure persistence in test-takers who score low enough that they want to retake it.
Giving in to all their demands, of course. And then giving in to all their new demands five to ten years later when they try it again, and again, and again.

"Anti-war" people always seem to have a curious blind spot when it comes to the countries that actually start wars.
Thanks!!

The open source aspect was really important to us. We are hoping that ato modules can become a convenient language for the community to share modules with each other, in a similar fashion to python and pypi.

Having an open code base also makes it more convenient for our users to chain tools together. This is currently hard to achieve with the existing close source standards we are dealing with in hardware.

ato is also a markup language (like markdown or latex) more than an actual programming language. We think this makes it more readable and helps guide the user writing code that compiles.
Indeed, the ability to branch and merge is a pretty exciting concept for me as a hardware designer. Another simple one is building artifacts in CI and doing quality checks, I have make some silly manual errors that have been very expensive during export.
