I don't think you understand how this works. Navalny's family physical location made zero difference here. As evidenced by numerous murders conducted abroad by FSB and GRU. No place is safe when Putin wants you dead.

How is this not more wasteful than running a native app? You have to run a Web server IN ADDITION to the app. And your client-side is rendered in the browser which, again, is IN ADDITION to the app. Where the native app is just... the app.

Sure, many people seem to be running their Web apps on the local Web servers because Web development is all they know, I'm just pointing out how it's less efficient that native apps.
If you need to work more in your prime working years, you can work more. If you need to work more in your elderly years, you die early and miserably. That's what people are trying to prevent.
So because the cve system has a few problems that annoy the kernel developers they decided an appropriate response is to completely sabotage it?

Mature, you guys.
I feel like the impact of it all is gonna be less than some people fear. Now that it's widely proliferated it's top of mind for everyone. Curious what they're reffering to when they mention the upside of GenAI for elections though. Like being able to summarise a parties program in easy language? What else
So what's your solution then? Break all apps simultaneously that do not have extensive tests for gracefully handling cases that were impossible when they were created?

This is not weird "hidden state" on the implementer's side. It's a straightforward dummy API and all you need to do to test it are a few straightforward asserts that it returns the correct dummy values and doesn't crash.

> I have a feeling that "solutions" like this are part of why an increasing number of my computing problems take the form of, "I tried to take an action, nothing happened. No error, no activity, nothing.", and are impossible to debug or diagnose.

That's precisely not what this is. The whole point of the article is to do nothing correctly. Presenting an empty list of printers is consistent with a PC that simply doesn't have any printers installed. A wrong thing to do would be, for example, presenting a dummy printer that accepts jobs but of course never prints anything.

You don't break the users of your API, period. That shouldn't be controversial. Unfortunately, too many people seem to think they need to do everything over every couple of years only to produce a solution that is no more extensible and resistant to bitrot than the one they're replacing.
I hear that refrain often regarding Microsoft, but with games, I have not had good luck. I resort to using GOG, which itself ends up virtualizing the environment anyway. For example, I do not think anyone would have success installing the original Sim City on Windows 11.
This wasn't clear to me in the article:
"With the help of manipulative designs, people are prevented from obtaining a free copy of their data in accordance with Article 15 GDPR – even though they would actually be legally entitled to it."

Maybe you're talking about the score, but the score isn't data - it's an algorithm. "For example, in the case of the complainant, the free information included only a 'basic score', while the paid information showed six different 'industry scores.'"

And this is basically how it works in the US as well. When you get your free credit report, it will contain a score, but not the same score as is seen by a business requesting the report - because there are many different scores used for different purposes. The business pays for the score that matters to them which is different than what the consumer sees.

None of this feels particularly nefarious to me.
Seems like a safe bet that he doesn't live forever.
This comment can be attributed to lacking knowledge in history. North Atlantic security model was decided 70 years ago. It was decided that instead of strong European military union US will be the grantor of security against common adversaries. Instead of very strong European armies, US will have overwhelming power. Do you realized why this might have felt a good idea after WW2?

It is most notable that all countries who feel threatened by Russia contribute well over 2% of their GDP into defense. Do you understand in US that this stupidity that is going on in the congress and this dangerous rhetoric is especially hurting these countries? Do you realize that for example Spain is not really feeling threatened by Russia and people in Spain (the voters who effectively decide the size of the defense budget) do not really care about US not helping them as they don't see any credible threat? This is only hurting US, what is losing its credibility globally as a serious security partner.

> I've always found the requirement to install these things before reboots odd and it leaves me afraid to do an upgrade (I have no memory of what I did last time and apparently if I do it differently everything will be irrecoverably different?)

The only thing that matters is "did you have Google Apps or not?". This fact can not be changed without doing a factory reset, or your OS will be terribly confused. It shouldn't matter _which_ flavor of a Google Apps package you installed (although the officially recommended one only has one flavor anyways), for this purpose they are freely interchangeable. I also haven't seen any other addon that has this particular destructive trait, so you should be fine as long as you pay attention to "Google Apps or no Google Apps?".

> I'd be happy if the process were always a full reset followed by choosing what to run until the next full reset.. And maybe it is (?) but I never understand what people are talking about in android land.

You are free to do that, and this is basically the fallback option in case anything related to Google Apps goes wrong while upgrading. It's just that most users don't want to reset their devices each time that a major update appears, so the instructions jump through hoops to accommodate them.

Backups are (of course) always recommended, no matter the circumstances.
I don't agree with this counterfactual, much as I love Scheme among languages I've barely used in my career.

Chez Scheme was fast but would not fit in the browser especially on Windows 3.1, which still had the largest share when I started JS in 1995, if memory serves -- it was certainly important to Netscape because Microsoft started bundling IE into later Windows versions, as default browser in Windows 98. Petit Chez Scheme was not fast, and I'm not sure I would have had time to use it in those ten days (I never looked at the code).

Guile was out because of the GPL, not my choice (same as with Make It Look Like Java order) and probably no time to embed, or just no way with 64K segments.

If you know of another fast-in-1995 Scheme that might have fit, links welcome.
It's not that mind-boggling. In general we need to use specific properties of numbers to prove whether they are irrational, and pi+e has very few useful properties to work from. Even proving pi is irrational is not trivial and it is one of the transcendental numbers we know the most about.
Businesses sell for 0x and Infinityx all the time. There are countless examples of that.

But bootstrapped business with growth rate for 7x+ (non-trivial) revenue are uncommon.

4x may be "ouch" for a VC but not a bootstrapper.
I tried all the entries under the `telnet` section. Interestingly, one of them still works!

I think `view = fn(state)` is mostly right but how it is implemented is wrong. If we look at react, everything is nice and declarative until you register event handlers, at which point you enter imperative land to hand manipulate state.

I think what is more accurate is: `view = fn(event-stream)`. Events include but not limited to:

- User events

- Prop change events

- Local state change events

- Global state change events

When we switch the paradigm to be about event streams, all of a sudden there is no bifurcation between prop, local state, global state, and user events -- it is all treated the exact same.

To me, a better solution would be for the system to pop up a notification informing the user that printing is not supported on this platform, and then whatever other solution is OK.

I think that the post is actually a move in the opposite direction, away from the unitary executive. Gutting the executive agencies would also remove many powers from the president, and transfer them (back?) to the legislative branch.

> The problem is the lack of innovation holds us back from solving complex use cases.

Innovation is awesome, when it is in the pursuit of achieving something better. (Better, not just newer for the sake of rewriting everything Yet Again.)

What burns me out about this industry is that a huge amount of "innovation" is just a pursuit to create complexity for the sake of complexity and resume-driven development.

Thus we get to classics like the "Command-line Tools can be 235x Faster than your Hadoop Cluster" (a well-known one, but countless similar scenarios play out everywhere continuously).

To all of you setting up your 20 node cassandra cluster behind your enormous kubernetes setup, all just to serve your 100rps app: you're not innovating, you're doing it wrong.

(Not "you" you. The whole software engineering industry.)

> Nothing can be less happy than eternal nothing that you came from

Nothing can be less miserable. What kind of argument is even that? Existing is not categorically better then not existing. Great many people today and in the past would have preferred to not have gone through what they experienced alive at all.
They tried to overturn the last election, and only by the grace of people that stood up when it mattered did that fail. If they seize power again, they will not give it up peacefully. They've already purged all dissenters from within their own ranks, and if given the opportunity to fill out the government with their own ranks they will take it.

We shouldn't be rooting for political violence, which is what you're talking about.
Cool! I haven’t tried SigLIP out yet but it seems to be the new hotness over CLIP… I just dont have a good project idea yet
You can set the EDITOR env var instead of using core.editor. or setup symlinks with your package manager.
For anyone else wanting to check on the status of this: it seems they're looking at a combination of seccomp, landlock and a systemd service instance per VM, with systemd doing DynamicUser, namespacing, and initial seccomp. Work seems to be happening right now, but of course it's telling and sad that it wasn't part of the original design.

You have to look closely but without blinding yourself!

I see three major categories of blinding lights on the roads in California:

New cars that are really bright and with appropriate beam shape/cut-offs, but annoying on hills or because of the taller cars you mentioned.

New or not-so-old cars where the driver is using the wrong light settings. That is fog lights and/or high-beams in inappropriate conditions or sometimes the opposite: somehow having daytime running LEDs at night instead of proper headlight activation.

The aftermarket retrofits which have none of the appropriate beam shape/cut-offs or projection. This can be a bit like the daytime running LEDs above in being diffuse but much brighter and often obviously anachronistic on some older car I know is from the basic halogen sealed-beam era. But it also includes trucks with various "offroad" lights being inappropriately activated on streets.
You are in this mess because you are supposed to be piping binary data or using temp files, not putting it in variables. Also bash scripts are just glue between external programs.

I mentioned the sanitization in the context of taking user input (since we are talking about a bash web server) because I thought you were pointing out a user could do bad things by feeding in nulls.
nice both-sidesing... the left that everyone seems to fear has nowhere near the power that the equivalent on the right has, seeing as the right has moved full-on fascism to the center at this point

What way do you mean, how exactly should they apply?
It's small. There are very few logical buyers of technically complex small businesses. There are logical buyers of small businesses and logical buyers of technically complex businesses, but at the intersection there is not.

Even bog standard SAAS companies struggle to sell at a decent multiple when they are really small, and they aren't especially complex.

How about an app originally designed for iPhone but is running on an iPad? iPhones can make calls, but iPads can't. Sure, a properly designed iPad app wouldn't try to use the phone functionality, but what if the developer is too lazy to develop a dedicated iPad app? Surely a crappy iPhone app running on iPad is better than no app at all?
This problem couldn't, but a lot of others could. Grandparent comment spoke generally about all construction.
The "shitty client" was written long ago by a company that is out of business. YOUR customers rely on that client, and if it stops working because of a change you made they will blame you.
> So valuable we let people park on it for free.

Most cities have a large infrastructure to manage availability of parking, including laws, signs, meters, and meter enforcement. And in many of them, parking space utilization is very high.

He is trying to sell you something though. That is my point. Maybe he is wanting to buy CRE at an ultra discount, maybe he is holding an inverse position. The only reason to be so public about bets is because you have some sort of angle not that you have conviction in your public statements/comments.
And while the programme is not universal nor the handouts are very big (around $200 per child per month) the costs are astronomical and it’s already driven inflation in the country (along with other social programs). I can’t imagine what would happen to economy if this was expanded.
Calling russian people Orcs is the worst dehumanising things to do IMO.

No, the "worst dehumanizing thing to do" is to gratuitously start a war that has probably killed or maimed 500,000 people so far and shows no signs of stopping.

To suggest that that this level of reactive name-calling (which in any case is used to apply to the invading forces; not to "Russians" in general) is somehow bigger and more dehumanizing than the awful, perverse and entirely one-sided war itself - is really quite silly.

Meanwhile the invading forces have all kinds of slur words for Ukrainians in turn, as I'm sure you know. So the argument is doubly silly, in that regard.
I wonder how much of the "old fart sadness" going around is about loss of control. Tech used to be a thing that could be not just understood but controlled. Then we moved to libraries and frameworks for everything. Then to renting a place to run our code and then renting the external services it used. And now, the new powerful AI thing can really only be owned by big corporations - no hacker control, just would-be-hackers as end users (anathema!).

I tend to see this as a larger societal trend than just computing technology, so maybe my own age is approaching "old fart-hood," too.
While we will eventually have an open standards protocol, it will likely be the market that decides. Having worked with the W3C's Web3D working group, I see it the same as how web browser features are often added/sponsored by one browser company and later adopted by all.

Much more interested in AR, though. If you haven't heard of Steve Mann, he's been a huge inspiration:

> which is odd, since Apple allegedly added support for Webm in iOS 15. I’m on iOS 17.

Which video codec? Originally webm could contain only VP8, but nowadays it can also contain VP9 and AV1. It's possible that Apple only implemented VP8 (https://caniuse.com/webm implies that it has implemented VP8 and VP9 but has VP9 disabled by default); if this video uses a newer codec, it won't work.
This is different from a bug or hitting an unknown limitation—the selling point of this was “it makes shit up” and they went “yeah, cool, let’s have it speak for us”.

Its behavior incorporates randomness and is unpredictable and hard to keep within bounds on purpose and they decided to tell a computer to follow that unpredictable instruction set and place it in a position of speaking for the company, without a human in between. They shouldn’t have done that if they didn’t want to end up in this sort of position.
What you're saying might be true. My sense is that the political project of doing a full-on tax-and-entitlement reform that results in a more sane system is impossible in the US.

At the ideological/theoretical level, I absolutely believe that there exists a radically more optimal way distribute the existing tax burden and funds.

But at the practical level, I think we have to do the equivalent of a long-term refactor. Any changes we make must be within the existing system and make sense on their own. Our only real option is to steer our way, digestible diff-by-digestible diff, to a better future.
I think a lot of people collect vinyl less for nostalgia reasons and more so to have a physical collection of their music. I think vinyl wins over CDs just due to how it’s larger and the cover art often looks better as a result.
Sometimes there are duplicate results, e.g. https://mood-amber.vercel.app/images/0b733fc2-7093-4443-8872... has two copies of https://mood-amber.vercel.app/images/f920a599-bbd7-4805-3317... right next to each other. (The link UUID is the same, so I assume this is an issue with the search algorithm, not simply duplicate data that got scraped.)
Agree with your list of pro-Russian populists, except Meloni doesn't appear to be pro-Russian, in Italy it's rather Salvini (Lega Nord) and Berlusconi (Forza Italia).

The justification for business owners making profits is that it's payment for taking risks. Why then are we trying to shield them from risks while still allowing them to make profits?
> But what if OpenAI decides to revoke access to that API feature I’m using? What if they change pricing and make it uneconomical to run? What if OpenAI extends their offering and makes my product redundant?

This point hits the nail in the head. If it can happen, and it will increase someone's profit, it will happen. It's not a matter of if, but when.
If you are building a software platform which has been adopted by more than a handful of developers then you're going to have some shitty apps, in which case you have to do this stuff. Yes, it is completely normal and generalizable to all platforms that have wide adoption and take backwards compatibility at all seriously.

Raymond is behind arguably the foremost exemplar of this (Windows) but the same thing happens in the Linux kernel ABI, glibc, the web platform, Java, and so on.
The two ATX pins you short to turn the box on connected to the general purpose IO on the pi is probably the obvious play. The pikvm people suggest running all the ATX pins over another ethernet connection which is probably as neat as it'll get, though I'd inevitably connect the ATX-over-RJ45 thing to the switch PoE at some point and that's probably bad with all 8 wires connected.

Plus you'd want a ATX header to RJ45-or-whatever port per machine. Workable but not very elegant.
We already have a set of laws—the Constitution—that governs which laws Congress is allowed to pass. What’s more, not only does the Constitution categorically blacklist certain laws (e.g. the Bill of Rights), it also specifically whitelists the limited set of purposes Congress can pass laws for (e.g. Article I, Section 8). And the Tenth Amendment makes clear that the federal government has no powers beyond the ones explicitly delegated to it by the Constitution.

Going back to my original point. I don't think any of the science suggests that HFCS in moderate amounts has any material difference. But...like I also keep saying, none of the science is really conclusive on any of this but what I think is a generally agreed, sweetners are not healthy in frequent larger quantities.
> why wouldn't they?

Laws, price controls, 100% tax rates on profits over certain levels, government ownership of the means of production.

Devil's in the details for what exactly any of those things "should" be.
