"No GPU? No Problem." Isn't exactly a complex phrase they'd have to steal, seems much more likely they came up with it independently.
There is no drop-down arrow in light mode either, which does create an accessibility issue, I'll have to reflect on that.

I created the style-sheet to be as minimalist as possible, but there is such a thing as too much minimalism.
Any stats on this? Sports (that cause these injuries) are a choice/entertainment and people should pay for playing (like you should pay if you are obese, smoke or drink), but how much of this are actual accidents (cars, normal bike riding, work, army)?
Yup, I'll remove it from the list, thank you for catching this.

Our time travel debugger at undo.io also uses a similar approach.

But the world is different for time travel debug, in that you can replay the whole history of the recorded execution (my understanding is that this is not required for Durable Execution) but you cannot resume the real process.

In fact, since it's used for capturing faults, you wouldn't generally want to resume execution - it's going to fail the same way (whereas a higher level restart framework might allow you to throw away some bad state and continue the computation - at the cost of not being able to precisely duplicate the bug).

If all programs run in ring 0, you can just run them all in the same virtual memory space. Then you don’t need TLB flushes at all. Of course, one bad program could bring the whole system down but that’s the price you pay.

But if programs were written in wasm, that problem goes away. Wasm prevents bad memory accesses by doing memory protection in software. (Every array or pointer access is bounds checked).
Having worked extensively in construction and IT (including a couple decades spent writing code) I have to say construction is a much more enjoyable and rewarding career. Pay and benefits are horrible though.

Ah! I thought 64bit buswidths had been standard in DDR memory for, well, a very long time now? Why did that change? Sounds like nothing much changed actually, in terms of total (bus) bandwidth.
What you don't see is how many upvotes I got for stating that Python is slow.

It would seem I am not the only one who notices the constant, absurd attempts to discount this simple fact.

I avoid Python wherever possible.
I am also against the Ukraine war and believe a peaceful settlement is possible. NATO (the US) is using Ukraine to fight Russia to the last Ukrainian, though having to fight two wars at once is causing them to rethink their position.

ICJ did rule against Russia, and it makes sense since they invaded, but the roots of the conflict go back to attacks on Donetsk like you say since 2014 and various aggressive moves by NATO since 1991 in violation of the gentleman's agreement.

Basically, the US should not be supplying arms to these conflicts.

Sure, but even in 2024 this 20-year old game has a paid monthly player count well into the millions. Extremely successful by any measure. And perhaps one of the most profitable game franchises of all time.

Wow, i was half serious but did buy it from the IG ad, and 3 months later after seeing the ad over and over, notice the orignal creator kept tracking the scams and posting in the ad comments it was a scam, I reported it to paypal, and the day after that (roughly 2-3 months) they shipped it, and it was wack.... like parts of it seemed to be machined, but not the acutally thing from the video from the og prop maker.

Edit: for anyone wondering here is mine: https://i.imgur.com/wc9hgwM.jpeg

It's not the worst thing, but definitely not what the ad showed, it showed the movie style twist and pop. Every part onb this is loose/free floating.

I cant seem to find the original ad or the scam ads, but this is what I'm at least referring too.
The US is "loosing" because it barely dipped a toe in the conflict. Motivate the US to go all in and it's a different story altogether. But I agree on the reluctance of Western Europe and the US to give support, the Ukraine conflict could have been over by now with proper support.
For helix, I notice that GitHub is listed as a data source, but there's nothing in the docs about this. I'd really love to see what a model trained on my commonly used git repos (which generally are newer than The Stack etc), and in particular their commit history. Ideally these would make it easier for code completion to have the historical context as well as the current code to play with in determining what to write next.

I often wonder how you'd go about organizing training data for a full historic github repo in a way that makes sense for training (or RAG)? The vast majority of the data is previous changes to the repo. I think this would generally mean that it would outweigh the current information and cause problems (i.e. old method names before refactoring etc.)

Also, perhaps being able to expand that out to doing the same thing for a bunch of consumers of the library that I'm maintaining would be neat.

Sprinkle in the PR and Issue history, docs website, API docs, and discord history and I think you'd have a helluva model.
>Again, maybe I'm just too rich to care about the $50 here but I thought the Apple premium has shaken itself off at least the used market.

On the base configurations /only/.

If you need a lot of ram and storage (neither of which are upgradable on modern macs, and in my experience storage being the most common component failure the idea of throwing away a computer because its SSD failed really grinds my gears) Apple is overpriced to an obscene point.
Maybe less so in the used market, but high specced devices that aren't very old are less likely to be found there, someone who bought a 24GB mac mini with 2TB of storage isn't selling a year old model on the market unless they're doing something like switching to PCs and regretting their decision to buy a mac.

In fact it's highly likely that those only-a-year-old mac mini you can find on the market exist because someone thought they could make do with the base configuration and realized 8gb of ram is total garbage but using an Apple computer they're left with no choice but to buy a wholly new computer just to fix that mistake.

The base mini, brand new, is 699, which is a price I actually find reasonable for a computer with that level of performance and the nice form factor. But it only comes with 8gb of ram, which is abysmally unusable for anything other than "I browse facebook in one tab" kind of computer usage, and at the same time the rest of the computer is so good it makes no sense to sell this much hardware just to open facebook on a browser. So, you configure it for at least 16gb and now it's 929 euros. If you want 24gb of ram, it's now 1159 euros. Ouch. Stings. It's +460 euros just for an additional 16 gigs of ram, ridiculous, ram has never been cheaper than in the past few years, the same goes for SSDs, yet Apple prices their SSD like this :

512gb +230 euros

1TB +460 euros

2TB +920 euros

Wat?
You can get a Samsung 990 pro PCI-E 4 with 4 TB of storage for 300 euros.

This is called a total ripoff.
As far as I know there aren’t any sports which are completely safe and without side effects. Sport can ruin your joints (eg. running), spine (eg. weightlifting) and cause plethora of other health issues (anecdotally I know many people who got serious injuries from while leisurely playing team games).

Usually there’s net gain from those activities, and what sport one practices vastly depends on preference and I’d rather encourage people to get hit in the head in controlled environment versus growing roots in the chair.

As a fan of practicing fighting sports I find such drug a great addition to all the other protection amateur can have.
I limited myself to black and white when creating the style-sheet, but maybe I should indeed add some kind of indicator for the "disabled" button, such as hatchings.

edit: hatchings make the inner text unreadable, I'll play around with opacity and dotted lines, thank you to the users who proposed them.

edit 2: went with dashed lines and published a new version. It even shaves off a couple of bytes off the minimized version :D
Indeed. And if anything, if Ukraine would have accepted such a "peace" settlement, the result would only have been the mysterious green men appearing in the next regions in Ukraine near the border. Rinse and repeat.
Nothing you said convinces me that the uvula and appendix have no purpose. I assume that ends of things do come together a lot during development, but why does that imply no importance? Sounds like a classic case of chesterton's fence. and I hate to say it but argument from authority is pretty boring.
Not to take away anything from this project (which looks pretty cool), but for folks using KDE on Linux you have a similar launcher built in called Krunner (Try Alt+F2). It is pretty well integrated and has a nice ecosystem of plugins.

Posting this primarily because I frequently run into people who use kde but have never used krunner.

Results are polluted for me with public transportation stations. I did not realize each of them had a wiki entry... of course geotagged.

Not sure how much parsing/filtering is done. Looks like the wiki entries for stations use a formated template "Infobox station".

I would vote to exclude those by default.

Also, in the list box, it seems I can only select to include result, not exclude. I would have done that for train stations and alike.

But thanks again!
> The fundamental problem of self-driving cars in cities is that they are expected to be 100% safe.

I feel like that might be built atop two deeper concerns:

1. People worry that ways and times they are unsafe (separate from overall rates) will be unusual, less-predictable, or involve a novel risk-profile.

2. If it's autonomous, then accidents kinda weird-out our sense of blame and justice. When it fails, is it always the owner's fault and liability--even though the workings are impenetrable to the average person--or does the manufacturer have some blame? Do we each imagine that outcome would be fair if we were the one on the hook for our car doing something weird we didn't even intend?

Using regular cars as contrast, #1 is something predictable--or at least we delude ourselves into thinking it's predictable--and #2 has less disturbing ambiguity.

Yeah, up to DDR4 it's standard, or at least common to have 64 bit channels. But with DDR5 it's standard to have 2 32 bit channels per dimm. Unfortunately many confuse number of dimms with number of channels, which is wrong for DDR5.

I think the idea of DEW is that you're not trying to literally melt the thing out of the sky, you're trying to penetrate it electrically and scramble something. To that end a very sharp pulse (chirped pulse) is the better approach as then you're more likely to cause damage once you exceed the capacity of (for example) the input isolators on the radar antenna to divert excess energy away from the very sensitive amplifier. Or, to put it a simpler way, you're trying to make sparks jump across gaps.

I'm always amazed at how surprised people seem to be when it's found that a biological system has complicated effects that weren't obvious at first glance. Given the nature of how they're evolved my working assumption is that every component of biological system is impactful in some way and messing with them will likely result in unexpected consequences.

True but some of what he says still makes sense.

i.e. I'm near sighted now (need reading glasses) and have astigamatism (I've always had that but until I needed reading glasses I never bothered with glasses so my brain has adapted, if I wear lenses that correct for the astigmatism everything looks the wrong shape for quite a while before eyes adjust then when I don't wear them everything looks the wrong shape but the other way so in the end I just went for glasses for close vision work (screen/reading) since that was less bothersome than "fixing" a problem that isn't really a problem).
That actually sounds like a nightmare.

That piece is not well thought out in my opinion. The "magical shield" that's been protecting people in developed nations is simple - nukes. Countries with nukes don't get invaded. Countries without nukes, do. It doesn't matter if you're a democracy (which Iran was until they dared question our control over their oil, and so naturally had to be have... monarchy... brought to them), or a little dictatorship with an affinity for rocket building. The primary point of conventional weaponry (from the perspective of a nuclear power) is to fuel proxy wars and enable the invasion of non-nuclear nations.

Of course he's right that if there is a WW3, the United States will lose. As will every other single major power. And how many artillery shells you have won't matter a lick in this. The goal in WW3 will not be to destroy the other nation's military, but to destroy the other nation, such that it can never recover to pose a threat to you again. Every single juicy high-density economic zone in every single country will end up getting nuked to oblivion. New York City, Moscow, San Francisco, Berlin, Paris - these places will, in all probability, simply no longer exist.

Striving to win an unwinnable war is not only painfully myopic, but also just seems like a great way for humanity to kill itself off.
> After all, surprise and disappointment are different things.

Hmmm... I think I gave it a honest try, but I'm still having trouble making that fit. I mean, both are when the unexpected occurs, one is just more-specific, where the unexpected leads to a negative emotional response.

Perhaps shocked versus disappointed?
I disagree with your point that this analogy does not apply.

You say there are some codebases that need over 9000 IQ to do anything. While that might be true, it is not the norm and a small fraction, so it’s not relevant to the broader argument.

You say it’s completely different in programming.
Sure it doesn’t help if one of your workers is a complete idiot — but that was not the premise - it was unskilled but energetic.

And there are always menial tasks to do — you pointed out some example yourself.

So to sum up my points are:
- most codebases do not require gigabrain for every single change

- there are always menial tasks to be done in a team environment

- “untalented” people don’t necessarily slow things down in development

- in fact talent is irrelevant when writing code - I would even argue that being talented is not always an advantage, in any field or profession - but that last point probably would need some more explanation.
> Why not? Or why not use both?

Because DNS-based blockers aren't visible to the browser, so they just look like HTTP errors or worse, and cause a variety of misbehavior. They're much more likely to produce errors that feel like the site just doesn't work. They can't distinguish between requests to different URLs on the same server, and many sites distribute both ads and content from the same servers. So they're always either going to miss ads or break sites, or both.

Browser-based blockers can block some URLs while allowing others, in addition to many many other improvements like substituting no-op scripts for things the site expects to call (preventing sites from hanging because they're waiting on tracking, for instance).

> What about non-browser apps on mobile devices or even desktops?

Ignore "download our app!" prompts and stick with mobile websites wherever possible; Firefox Mobile has excellent adblocking via uBlock Origin. Look for ad-free alternative apps. If that isn't an option, purchase ad-free paid apps.
I see Apple is trying the "self harm as a threat" tactic. We'll see how that goes for them.

I think that the ultimate result (sqlite-wasm) is better than what Web SQL database could provide. Today you can bundle your own version with your own set of native extensions. In case of standard Web SQL you would be forced to check the version and figure out, is it finally possible to use RETURNING in queries.
I suppose this will yield a real-world test of the EC's enforcement powers. To my understanding, they have little unilateral power--their legislative powers are limited to initiative (not a paltry power, but not a unilateral one either) and its enforcement power seems to consist of taking cases to the ECJ.

Does the ECJ grant the EC injunctions?
To be fair, while the barriers by manufacturing and engineering are no small thing people seem to forget that your average american can't male these.

I was interested in doing some hobby and research chemistry sorta like a combination of the precision projects I see from

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8i-4EpLBXMzekETNXwcZjA

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC06HVrkOL33D5lLnCPjr6NQ

And more focused on the energetics stuff combines with just technology and research.

Well I did some digging and the ATF is regulated the industry to hell and back. And while I can recognise the importance of safety, I think that it also creates more additional barriers to entry. Especially considering this would a been a weekend hobby if it would have been possible.

TLDR: a lot of people talk about the logistics or the funds to start doing something like artillery production or silicon chip fabrication....and yes I agree but I think the regulation of everything has created so many barriers....you can't experiment in the backyard like you could in the 90's.

Were the 90's safe? No. But we also didn't know the real risks back then when it came to certain chemicals. Also, the growing population makes it more and more hard to have land where you can safely do things....in the north east coast its hard to find and long gun ranges, some states basically banned all the good fireworks, and all this regulation means having just more and more money to figure out how to navigate this issue....which means its not a hobby but a job.

I see plenty of cool things on YouTube from chemistry to engineering and part of me is not sure if the feds are just ignoring what these people do....because it dosnt seem legal, or if they are just lucky that they live somewhere with loosed regulations.
As someone who uses macOS for 11 years as the daily driver for his work, I can just say that it would be a bloodbath.

Not only is the driver support abysmal, kext are gone, and the actual quality of macOS has declined significantly over the years.

10 years ago, there was the rule of thumb to wait one update before you do the “big” OS upgrade, now it's better to wait for 3–4 updates as Sanoma crashes on our working machines (1500 people company) frequently.

Speaking of crashes, my m1 MacBook Pro 13, still running Ventura, has crashed more than ANY OTHER mac before. And I'm talking about crashes like, you close the lid, drive to the airport, take a seat, open the lid and just see that macOS starts completely fresh and presents you with a system crash message.

And this is the first Mac where I don't use any kext, strange tools, and completely abandoned software development…

The only thing that let me keep the m1 is the battery life...
