If they got blasted with misinformation 24/7 before election day, how much will those 24 hours help them make an informed opinion? It might stop last minute attempts at swaying the election. But it will not stop long running campaigns.
It's not a big deal to admit that Gorbachev was a weak leader that gave away too much and aided the fall of the USSR.

Without being at all up to date on the current state of things, the Virtual Box third party kernel module was historically of famously poor quality[1], even putting aside the general pains of third-party kernel modules.

How do you prefer to validate if a model is actually useful for you in practice outside of solving toy problems? Are you asking these models to solve reasoning problems like this to get any benefit for yourself in your day to day use? Or do you even care if the models are useful for day to day tasks?

It is; they even made a limited edition joke product that leaned all the way in called "Soylent Green - as good as humanly possible". I love sharing them on hiking trips although they are more funny than tasty.
Trillion dollar companies tend to carry enough weight to make product name collisions everyone else's problem instead of theirs. Really unfortunate for the Gemini crypto exchange folks.

TLDR: Nerve is a tool that helps developers write and maintain integrations. It does the same thing as a Unified API, but in a different way. Unified API companies are great but they take a lot of manual effort, which can make it hard for them to provide adequate coverage. Nerve is a Schema Network, which is a network where the nodes are apps and the edges are integrations. The idea is that you can auto-derive integrations between any two apps that have a path between them in the network. Nerve is designed to leverage the point-to-point integrations people are already writing on their own; the lack of a central bottleneck means it can provide much better coverage than a Unified API. Clicking the link will take you to a demo, but first it will show you an article providing more background. You can skip the article and go straight to the demo by clicking "Skip Intro" on the top right. Nerve is in private beta and you can join the waitlist if you want.
I suspect a ceo could have asked for a pay package of massive bonuses correlated with marketshare. My understanding is the board has pretty wide discretion to set pay, and following years of steep marketshare losses, who would question such an arrangement?
I feel like data privacy is always the last throe of a company before hanging it up. I hope that's not the case with Mozilla. Not a big enough market cares about data privacy to make it a primary marketing message, unfortunately.

A little wrapper like this is going to get eclipsed fast.
Of course, but there will be diminishing returns.

Eventually there will be a "Raspberry Pi" for LLMs. How long it will take to get there is anyone's guess, but I'd rather see it sooner than later personally.

The attacks from Lebanon are in defense of Gaza and are part of Lebanon's legal obligation to prevent genocide. Aiding Israeli forces that are conducting illegal acts is complicity.

> are performed to limit casualties of non-engaged civilians in the conflict.

Over 20k Gazans have died, few of them resistance members because they are in tunnels. The majority of dead are women and children. Israel is attacking the families of the resistance because they cannot reach them. This is collective punishment. Almost every hospital has been evacuated or destroyed. Universities destroyed. They are wiping out all humanitarian services and cultural artifacts.

> FYI the ICJ's court of justice has NOT determined that a genocide is likely to be occurring,

Provisional measures are granted when it is determined there is a likelihood that genocide is occurring. The case will drag on for years to determine on the merits whether genocide has in fact occurred. Many scholars have opined that this case is unique because of the sheer number of open statements of intent by every level of Israeli society.

Not cute enough.
I have a friend who never used a Mac nor an iPhone, but he owned an iPod and so installed iTunes years ago and used it to manage his entire music library, and continues to do so to this day. I'm sure he's probably an outlier but Windows iTunes users do exist :)

I think its also important for people to realize that

1. its opt-in, if you don't like it don't use it :)

2. we don't do magic migrations. We generate a regular ecto migration from your resource changes. So you can use it as a starting point and hand edit it (and often you should or even must as we can't do things like generating data migrations).

3. you don't have to map your resources one-to-one with tables. We support multiple resources being sourced from the same table, and turning on and off migration generation per resource. It's very common to have an Ash resource backed by a postgres view, or two ash resources backed by the same table. The migration generator merges resource definitions together to create "the strictest table definition that supports both resources". You can also remap field names. So at the end of the day, you can have your cake and eat it too on that front.
If you're attending public school for the most part - no, you'll be assigned to a school. There are a lot of exceptions though, merit based schools you can elect to attend, lottery based systems. And of course your parents are free to pay for private school.

This system does come with issues though, like parents lying about their address to get their kids into a "better" school.

1. A bunch of communicating local processes.

2. A bunch of communicating local VMs (easier with a beefier machine like my current desktop).

3. Mininet (there are other options) to simulate a network environment, can fully control the topology very easily. Lighter weight than (2), more control for simulating different network effects than (1) alone.
I think there's a huge difference between content aggregation/discussion sites, and content creation sites.

Are comments and discussions separate from "content creation"?
I'd suggest to spend 50% of your time on base marketing - provide meaningful content to your target audience on the web and other channels if they make sense, e.g. LinkedIn for B2B and you will slowly start to get recognized. After that it should get easier. Avoid scammy tactics and spam.

If you really think you need a good non-tech co-founder it should be someone you have worked with under pressure and they have proven that they can deliver. Avoid people that produce strategies.

You should list some things you have built so that someone with marketing/sales experience could find it interesting and get in touch later. It's part of what I called "base" marketing and it's a long game, no shortcuts.
YES THANK YOU
Interesting perspective. They’re instead paid to my retirement investment account and Uncle Sam.
Definitely see how that's a factor in many cases, but I can see other possible explanations. For example, I used to be a real serious Twitter addict, but it wasn't really FOMO driving that IMO. My own post-hoc analysis is that it was a mixture of needing feel "in control" during a period of political upheaval, alongside a desperate desire to build a personal brand and receive recognition. There's lots of people and lots of software, I think the underlying motivations are going to be different for different pairings of the two.
Yeah, I've never really fancied a dual clutch bike. We have one in our car and I only really use it in manual mode when towing - it's easier to change down before a hill than let the DCT get half way up and realise it needs to change. I've occasionally tried to use it to drive 'spiritedly' and you can practically hear the computer churning as it weighs up your inputs and decides whether it's going to let you do what you want or not. Makes a bit of a mockery of having flappy paddles behind the wheel!

I can't imagine what one would be like in an actual performance bike. So, did you mean 'slam open the throttle' as in kick down 3 gears and give it everything you've got or 'slam open the throttle' as in I'd like a nice low RPM burble to hasten us along to an increased speed limit.
> When was the last time the intersection with the humanities was mentioned, versus how sleek and desirable the technology is?

Probably around a decade ago, at least. The low hanging fruits of digitalisation have been gone for a while now. I can't really think of anything they've released since for which it was immediately obvious what "problem" was solved. So it requires different arguments to convince us to buy their stuff...
From what I can see the only thing it does above and beyond Slack's own integration is generate images. To me that's the most low-value part of the value proposition.

OpenAI also has a teams product:

I mean, I understand, it's an internal tool and all, you're not building a business here, out of this tool, but I'm going to guess that you end up ripping this out within months as Slack invests big bucks into integrating AI into their platform.
I’m not sure I’ve ever understood this take.

I think Apple has always been like this (one-button mouse, B&W display, proprietary keyboard plug, dropping the floppy, adopting USB, adopting FireWire, making the original iPod only function as a FireWire hard drive on Windows, etc.) But, like any product maker, the choice of whether you buy it or not is up to you. If you don’t like the whole package, find another option?

To put it another way, if, for whatever reason, someone made a delicious food item that was perfect for me in every way — mind-blowing taste, exceptional packaging, incredible mouthfeel, truly a cut above any other food — except that it gave me the extreme shits, I wouldn’t keep eating it and complain about it all the time. I would simply not buy it anymore. I don’t think, as a complete package, it’s for me — despite the fact that everyone has the right to food to nourish them.
How does cutting off communications prevent terrorist cells from executing their planned attacks?

The real reason is obviously that the ruling elite usurped and imprisoned Pakistan's most popular leader, which means the political situation is very volatile.
+1 for grey scale.

Other things that were hugely helpful for me:

- Turn off tap to wake on your phone. It sounds funny but having to press a button to turn on your screen will make you do it less.

- Remove social media apps from your phone. (duh). If you have to use them, use them in browser which generally sucks and will prevent you from using them for a really long time.

- Take apps off your home screen. My phone is a lot less appealing when there isnt a shiny bright a/b tested to death app icon telling begging me to click it. It takes seconds to search for and pull up apps.

- Turn off notifications for everything but calls/texts. (duh). I don't need any push notifications. Once you stop getting them you will stop looking at your phone expecting them to be there.
Fantastic build speeds and where to find them
Are we only allowed to compare to chrome?

I miss session manager, tab mix plus, a few others.

I really miss having a gesture extension that runs at the GUI level, so it doesn't stop working while pages are loading and lag all the time and not work in certain places. And that one isn't even about XUL, they simply refuse to implement the mouse callback in the new system.
It’s not much more generic than “make consumer electronics” from apple which makes everything under the sun now from headphones to cars. Google just increasingly became at odds with its own “dont be evil” motto as the company had scaled so execution had greately suffered
Don't you want to know what the public position of a country is that we are so involved with? In what way is any politician not a liar in some respect? If you care about future geopolitical events then it's useful to know public positions.
Frankly, just build something.

Use a small k8's distro (kind, minikube, k3s) and build something that talks amongst itself and is resilient.
Such a test wouldn't show we are in a simulation. It would show the universe follows weird rules, which is already what we know from quantum physics.

He doesn't remember exactly.

I think with historical trivia like this it's very easy for facts to get simplified and for maybes to turn into certainties as information is passed along from person to person. I personally wouldn't trust a single claim in the article without checking first hand sources first.
They generally don't build them in high traffic areas.
I agree that that's why they didn't do a simple XBox 2, but I have never in the past 20 years had the thought that 360 starts with 3, so it's the competitor to the PS3. But even with that reasonable limitation guiding their decision, going from OG to "360", "One", and then "Series" is a pretty huge failing to establish a consistent branding. And "Series" in general doesn't give a natural sounding way to refer to this generation as a whole.
Um...wow. Might makes right?
PS: Clicking on the link will let you play around with Nerve, but first it will show you an article that provides a little more context around how Nerve is designed and why it's designed that way.

We know that octopuses and many other animals are intelligent. We don't know for certain if anything nonhuman is sentient. Scientists and activist groups have been designing frameworks for sentience and tests to measure it.

This paper [1] (about crabs, but discusses octopuses) has a very interesting section talking about defining and measuring sentience. It was used to support a recent bill in the UK [2] attempting to reduce cruelty to sentient animals. Octopuses measured very high in their testing.

> then restoring the entire program into the state it was in just before the crash happened would just cause it to crash again ad infinitum.

Hopefully!

But, sadly, this is not always the case. It's sad because it's incredibly hard to debug crashes that don't happen deterministically.
I'm genuinely curious, is this just edgy humour, or is there any culture that regularly eats cat?
Still on an old Intel Air but looking for an M-class does not have to be the latest.

1) How does the M1 Pro compare to the M3 base? Chip performance only.

2) M1 Pro's seem scarce. People holding on to them?
This seems to be a very generalized statement when there is a lot of variation to consider. There are 33,000 fish species, some being specialized feeders of algae, to 100% live fish, all designed for processing each food differently. Are you speaking on a specific fish that is commonly "farmed"?
I could see Salmon needing this 20kg and not even contain the quality fats they get in the wild, resulting in a lower quality food on top of being more impactful to the environment.
No personalized feed or “watch next”? Not “social media”.

We routinely have standups less than 5 minutes unless someone has something they want to discuss with the team. Our EM doesn't even want status updates since that's already shown on the JIRA board. "No blockers" is a fine verbal contribution to standup.

This business of hour-long standups sounds insane and so wasteful. If it's taking devs that long, it sounds like something is missing elsewhere.

Here are some questions that might help identify the problem. Are you using a good ticket/issue tracker? Are devs talking/collaborating during the day? Is there a sense of group ownership of work done? Is there a tech owner/point person for each epic/larger unit of work? Are you breaking tickets down into small pieces (no more than a few days of work each)? Do devs discuss implementation plans regularly? Are business requirements clearly communicated? Do you practice continuous delivery (release each ticket directly to production when done - if need be, behind a feature flag)? Does the business optimize for DORA metrics? Do dev teams own decoupled vertical slices of technology?
It's not as easy as playing with more 'normal' stuff, but I usually use VMs on a local hypervisor like ESXi, or a bunch of old desktop/server hardware if I have enough space/power/cooling at the time. Winter helps, big stuff often runs loud and hot. To get specialized hardware when needed, ebay or 'trash' from work and such can help a lot.

It’s really not the same by matter of extremity. Hacker news has maybe a small fraction of the addictive mechanics at play in instagram or twitter. Personally, I only come back to this site because I don’t have other, far more addictive social media to scroll when bored.
there's no "keeping the kernel secure" and "allowing access to the hardware".

I recommended “Understanding Distributed Systems: What every developer should know about large distributed applications” by Roberto Vitillo to all my colleagues back when I worked on SaaS systems.

“Designing Data-Intensive Applications: The Big Ideas Behind Reliable, Scalable, and Maintainable Systems” by Martin Kleppmann as the more advanced deep dive.

Both books provide timeless conceptual advice. Kleppmann’s description of developing a database by starting from an append-only text file really stuck with me.
A problem here is the "adaptive" in Adaptive Cards. The idea was a unified "backend" for UIs in Bing, Teams, Copilot (the app formerly known as Cortana), LinkedIn, and all sorts of other "hosts". The hosts all have their own, different design languages and so all show different designs of these cards. The examples given on its own webpage are truly "lowest common denominator" and expected to be further restyled by whatever hosting application is used. This design is kind of intentionally "HTML 1.0" because it is meant to be a low level "control framework" for design teams to build on top of, rather than a final design in and of itself.

Not that that entirely excuses the web page from trying some better styles or better yet a "theme chooser" style approach to better illustrate how the base concepts are meant to be design-flexible by maybe actually showing design flexibility in action.
This is why Apple being forced to allow more browsers is a good thing. Many people shout how Safari is the only competition for Chrome, but are they really competition? It seems they have more of a policy of intentionally delaying or breaking web features for fun.
I totally agree with that approach, yeah I would ride that vertical until I had the energy/breadth to widen. And over time you'll find what your new user profile wants.

It does come up in real world situations. Lots of file based caches in things like Apache, or session stores, like in PHP, etc.

You don't understand... these farmers are all kulaks, enemies of the revolution! They're dangerous as a class and need to be treated accordingly.
"Talk peace, make war" is not a strategy Putin invented, and to confirm this all you need is a cursory reading of the history of Hitler's foreign policy, appeasement, etc. Of course NATO membership is, at first, "all Putin wanted" - after achieving that he can defer conquest of Ukraine until a time of his choosing, time is on his side to reform his army and try again. In fact, NATO membership is an existential necessity for Ukraine, the only possible way it can have a peaceful and stable life alongside a huge irredentist/fascist state next door. Nothing is possible without meaningful security and deterrence.

All that feigned "paranoia about NATO" talk is trivially invalidated by the fact that Finland joined NATO, it was obvious that Finland would join NATO no matter the outcome of the Ukraine invasion, and it's obvious that Putin understood this. The only threat NATO poses is to Russia's ability to re-colonize its neighbours.
Based on this thread, I think... everyone would question such an arrangement.
