in the uk you will effectively need a photo id (passport, driving license etc.) i had to get a passport in order to sell a flat i had owned for 30 years (i needed no id to buy it). the whole anti-money laundering thing has gone mad here.
It absolutely shows in the final product, too.

I wish more companies evaluated the suitability of software based on reviewing the back-end data storage schema. A lot of sins can be hidden in the application layer but many become glaringly obvious when you look at how the data is represented and stored.

That and the search engine mayhem are abusive behaviour, even if not abuse of the license.

It's being a dick, deliberately.
You're allowed to fix bugs introduced by new releases, you know. It's called a patch release?

Is your claim that a release which introduces bad algorithmic complexity requires a major release to fix in semver? Who thinks this?
When you think you're almost done, you're halfway there. However long you expect X to take, you should double that.

Dealing with a bunch of automigrate headaches in the Prisma ORM convinced me to just drop the layer entirely and write plain old SQL everywhere. It’s forced me to learn a bunch of new stuff, but the app runs faster now that I can optimize every query and migrations are much simpler with a single idempotent SQL setup script I can run to provision whatever deployment of the DB I need. I’m sure some problem spaces might benefit from all the additional complexity and abstraction, but the average app certainly can make do without for a long time.
TypeScript should not be pushed or published. Do not do that.
> Weren't the bulk of the original SV tech companies largely funded by the military?

It depends who you mean by 'original'. One narrative about the 1980s-90s boom was it was laid off people from the defense industry. Maybe all the laid off SV people will now reverse that flow.

> haven't many (most?) or the not directly consumer oriented ones always had massive military contracts?

Who? Not Google, etc.

> This isn't new.

Why do people love to say that?
If you examined your thoughts more closely, you'd realize they're ridiculous.

Should we pay everyone the same in a given country? Should a food deliverer make the same as a surgeon? No? Then this creates an economic hierarchy already. This economic hierarchy exists for countries as well.

You have one definition, of "free" but its not the only reasonable one.

Is MIT not free because it requires attribution? Is no code free because it cannot be used in ways that break the law?

Just because there are some restrictions does not make it completely unfree, and its fair for people to want to use what is the most natural word to refer to thing that are free enough for them. "OSI-approved" works if you want to be precise but one org does not have the right to dictate the use of a word as common as "open".
Switzerland doesn't count being one of the main beneficiaries of Nazi ideologies and literally hording the gold that used to be part of the teeth of the jews getting killed in concentration camps. Nazi Gold is a synonym to Swiss banking. A visit to Auschwitz or Mauthausen might help to get some perspective.

Cost is likely another factor.

Mathematics is an oddball since you could study it purely with books, pencils, and paper. Programming does have an entry fee to practice, but computers became very cheap very fast in the early 1980's. By the early 1990's you could get somebody else's castoff hardware for free. By the early 2000's you could get practically any type of development tool you wanted for free. There are also plenty of stories of enthusiatic and creative people finding ways to access computers for as long as time sharing systems existed. Even if you were relatively isolated geographically and had to spend your own money on a computer, the only real cost was the initial outlay and that expense could keep someone occupied for years. (For the most part, people didn't subscribe to software or online services back then.)

Social factors also enter the picture. A kid exploring chemical reactions or disecting small animals is going to be looked upon very differently from one spending half of their waking hours programming computers. For the most part, there is nothing illegal with any of those activities. It is just that the first two usually brought to mind potentially immorall or potentially illegal activities, while the latter was viewed as harmless at worse.
Historically Scandinavians only fairly recently stopped slaughtering their native Sami hunter-gatherers that used to live in central regions. Most that are left today are northern nomadic herders.

It's a good point that the HTML and CSS of all public websites was probably fed into copilot, and I assume a lot of that came from template engines or other tools rather than being handwritten.

Also mind that loading theses models take dozens of seconds, and you can only load one at a time on your machine, so if you have multiple programs that want to run theses models, it make sense to delegate this job to another program that the user can control.

Why? I’m not primarily a JS/TS dev, but when I’m dealing with the JS ecosystem, operating across two languages is one of the pain points (e.g. clicking a function in my editor and getting the typedef instead of the code). Now that runtimes like Deno and Bun support TS natively, why shouldn’t we avoid that completely?
Switzerland did shoot down both Allied and German aircraft in World War II that trespassed their airspace.

Neutral doesn’t mean non-violent. They weren’t one of the belligerents engaged in WWII but they did defend their neutrality and were a target of actions by the Nazis that didn’t amount to much by the end of the War.

There's a thing called an embedding that comes from an embedding model. You put text in and you get a vector (embedding) out. Since the vector represents the text, it's usually used for stuff like search.
Easy: Switzerland comes to mind for example, unless you also count as involvement looming starvation from supply chain issues and accidentally getting bombed due to navigation failure and/or preventing that by violent means.

I used Muse and was aware of it. Looking back, I think it was because they were excessively pure about their approach. The library they built a top of, Automerge, also had this flaw, compared to it's nearest and wildly successful alternative Y.js. Being MacOS and iPad only, having little practical utility and coming off as a spin off of some research projects contributed to this.
No, some local governments have been doing safe injection sites. Safe supply is a political football that's scapegoated despite not being implemented anywhere in Canada. And neither is a solution to the homelessness, addictions, and mental health crises.

Every time I hear a politician talking about safe supply, they say it's not a silver bullet. Which is weird because nobody claims it's a silver bullet. Know what else isn't a silver bullet? Criminalization. Or, everything else that's ever been tried. It's a hard problem, there isn't a silver bullet solution, get over it.

What's harm reduction good for? Reducing harm. It isn't harm prevention, it isn't free housing, it isn't free addiction counseling, it doesn't fart roses.

Safe injection sites keep users close to medical professionals so we can keep people from dying alone. Safe supply would ensure that users aren't going to accidentally OD on kerfentanyl thinking it's ordinary fentanyl. Needle exchanges keep users supplied with sterile equipment to reduce risk of injections such as HIV and hepatitis C. Each policy is an example of harm reduction. The general philosophy is to not let perfect be the enemy of good.

I wonder about the loyalty of some of these business leaders; it shouldn't be assumed.

Some have bunkers in other countries, at least one has dual citizenship. It's the 'smart' thing to advertise your unlimited aggression for money, with no moral or other constraints, willing to work with anyone; that's not a good signal for protecting the welfare of others and the principles of freedom and democracy. Some openly argue against democracy. One prominent person likes to support all sorts of enemies, and goes out of their way to show a close relationship with China.

If push comes to shove, if Taiwan is under seige and they decide it's not really their problem; will they take the cash from China and help, even through a back door? What about some foreign dictator that someone supports, like Putin?

Some people are enamored with the idea of noble historic and prehistoric peoples for many reasons, but any peaceful society, and there were some, would be wiped out by the non-peaceful ones.

Contention for meagre resources was intense. We did not have modern grains (yield and resistance) or farming methods (fertilizers, etc) nor weather prediction. For the great majority of history, it was more or less subsistence living, whether you were farmer, fisherman, etc. Famines were not so extraordinary, maybe once per decade, so yeah, people stole, raided and fought over food. It was essential to survival.

Phone calls are difficult more because there is no record of what was said. But if I had a recording of the phone call... I'm not actually sure what I would expect to happen. It's just so socially unusual to record phone calls.

As a Platform Engineer who has to work with Azure on a daily basis, I am so tired of their APIs and services making exceptions left and right, sometimes for their own shitty clients. The result is a Patchwork product suite, services never work as expected but deviate from their documentation (or rather what they are claiming is their documentation).

The Daily Azure shit Mastodon account has more than enough examples of this. For example https://azsh.it/167 or https://azsh.it/107

This article made me realize while Azure is the way it is - unreliable and broken.
The MIT license is explicitly designed to be compatible with building proprietary software. The key point of difference from the GPL is that you can use MIT code to create proprietary software.

I'm no lawyer, but it isn't even obvious to me that you have to MIT license a binary created directly from MIT licensed source code. "Software" seems to be the source code and therefore the binary probably isn't a copy or substantial portion of the MIT licensed program. Unless lawyers are redefining words on me it looks like I can compile MIT licensed source and distribute it under whatever alternate license I like.

But regardless, if the point of the license is to enable creating proprietary software, it is no stretch at all to speculate that it'll be used to create proprietary software.

Actually here's a thing. Our new car, a fairly humble model, nonetheless comes with projector headlights that have a sharp divide between "very bright" and "dark" about halfway up to the rear windows of the car in front. That's if the car is perfectly level. But load it up for a Christmas trip, with the kids in the back seat and the trunk packed full, and it's ever so slightly off level, and over a distance low enough to still blind, will move that light/dark dividing line up to window level.

And there's nothing we can do about it. The aim of the lights can't be adjusted. Unintended consequences.

On the other hand, why do we have a new car? Because the old one got written off. Why? Because one of those gigantic SUVs whose hood is at about chest level, with way bright headlights was tailgating and blinding the spouse from behind so she pulled over to let it pass. Only to have the driver lose control (it was winter with some ice/snow on the road) and hit her on the rear corner. If it wasn't for those high-mounted, blinding lights none of this would have happened.

To our knowledge, rates of violent death were typically much higher in primitive stateless societies: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/share-of-violent-deaths-n...

Aha interesting. I would guess it is missing a bit of nuance, eg a real word query would not be "appetizers with chicken" but something closer to "I'm waiting for my friends, not too hungry, what do you have that's spicy but not too filling? Oh, and I don't eat red meat".

This would be much harder with basic vector database+RAG. You would at least need HyDE (hypothetical document embeddings) to act like a real waiter.

I find your project very interesting though, and the walkthrough is nice!
Alternatively, for some - most really - the real possibility of death and real consequences is what was necessary to pull out of it. To break through the delusional behavior. But even then, it may not be enough.

The Issue, imo, is when death is not a certainty, but a surprise consequence (or sudden) due to bad or inconsistent supply, etc.

I recently met someone who it

At the time of sending the L2 packet, the router must know the MTU of the link it's sending it on. This is the case with router based fragmentation, otherwise it wouldn't fragment. This is also the case where the router drops packets that are too big, otherwise what does it do; assuming you don't build routers where all MTUs on all interfaces are required to be the same.

The proposal is that in the case that the router is forwarding a packet which won't fit in the egress MTU, it truncates it, rather than drops it. Hopefully maybe with a truncated bit (maybe we can reuse the evil bit for this). If a peer receives a truncated packet, which it should know because either the evil bit is set, or the received length doesn't match the length in the IP header, that would be processed depending on the protocol. For TCP, the receiver should send a duplicate ack with a newly specified option that indicates the length of the truncated packet it received; then the other peer would know the maximum length packet it could send. For UDP, the truncated packet would probably need to be sent to the application and it could figure out how to notify the peer to send shorter packets (and perhaps process the received truncated packet).

Had this been specified in the before times, it would be reasonable to implement, and path mtu detection would work a lot better now. Some routers may still have been built that drop rather than truncate, but it's a lot more reasonable to send a smaller packet in some circumstances than to have the router fragment things (needs to send two packets sometimes instead of one) or to send a return packet (needs to create a packet and start it back through the routing process again).

Additionally, all of the signalling is in-band, which makes it harder to lose the MTU signals when (small) data is otherwise flowing.
Sweden are joining NATO right now due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine and so did Finland. Both of them border Russia and did not join NATO in the past to try and avoid any form of escalation.
