Anectdote: I got mild frostbite twenty years bc I was unprepared for a Fall hike in the Adirondacks. It still makes me miserable - when other people feel a nip of cold my fingers are pulsing with pain. I have to be really careful in winter not to expose my hands to frigid air skiing etc, it sucks.
As a web dev, I honestly can’t figure out the value here. It makes things considerably less legible from an inspection standpoint. And while yes each div provides a handle by which to independently control some layout property the law of diminishing returns kicks in hard by about three layers deep (three block level elements deep will cover 99.9% of things you might want to do with a given visual-block element).

I can only imagine this kind of markup is tooling generated and assumes that no human eyes will ever have to review/write it.
>> as every attacker has a higher loss than the defender

On what are you basing this assertion? I'm going to assume it's a flawed understanding of the oft-cited "3:1 rule", which a) isn't a rule, but a planning guideline b) never referred to casualty ratios, but to force ratios suggested for a successful attack.

>> Personally I have great hopes that an outsider like Kasparov could become President of Russia once Russia is defeated.

What influence does Kasparov have with Russia's security establishment? In other words, why would any of the men who actually wield power in the country support him?
I always wondered what the purpose of that extra “I” was in the CI variables `CI_PIPELINE_IID` and `CI_MERGE_REQUEST_IID` were for. Always assumed it was a database related choice, but this article confirms it.
Well, chemotherapy destroys/reboots the immune system. So of course, if you always give chemotherapy before immunotherapy, it will keep being the most effective treatment. That is my point.

And to qualify for the vast majority of clinical trials you need to have failed existing treatments (chemo) before testing the new stuff.

Also, if the immunotherapy gives you colitis, then chemotherapy should shut that down too (it is already used in bad cases of colitis, e.g. methotraxate, cyclophosphamide)

I know "Kansas is flat" is a popular trope, but it's not even that accurate.

Depending on how you measure, lots of states are flatter than Kansas. Florida is the flattest state by nearly all measures. Illinois is crazy flat as well.
That's great! I'm sure there exist thousands of high-conscientiousness hard-workers just like you who are taking the time they spent commuting and pouring it back into work. Forums like Hacker News are filled with this kind of person, a defining characteristic of whom is an inability to recognize just how atypical they are in this respect (amongst other ways).

It affected routers running Ubiquiti's EdgeOS, but only those that had not changed their default administrative password
If you consider this an abuse, you're not in favor of the spirit of open source to avoid discrimination.

You think uses should be discriminated between acceptable and abusive.

It's OK to think that way, but it's not an open source way of thinking.

This was chargen servers on random Windows boxes. Hitting me with tons of 64k UDP packets, so they would would get fragmented, but I almost never got the first fragment.

This is, of course, nonsense on so many levels, but it was very effective, because my servers at the time had a ridiculous IP fragment reassembly buffer (autoscaled based on system ram size, with a formula written decades ago) and reassembly did a linear search of the buffer. No big deal in normal conditions when we got one or two fragmented packets a minute; immensely terrible when getting a couple GBps of fragmented chargen reflection that could never be reassembled. Setting the reassembly buffer to the minimum solved the problem; during DDoS attacks, legitimate fragments wouldn't be reassembled, but oh well, so many other services don't ever assemble fragments, we did the best we could.
OK, fine, but the article was talking about manufacturing. Well, in as much as it talked about anything - it was mostly just conservative political posturing.

> Actually a lot of companies don't need something for desktop use, it's very common to adopt a mobile-first or mobile-only strategy especially if you're a startup. Usually the very largest services will have a good desktop experience. Even then you have services like Instagram and Threads where the desktop web experience is clearly not a priority. Desktop is increasingly irrelevant to consumer markets.

And neither of those pay the “Apple tax” nor do most SaaS products. Again 90% of App Store revenue comes from games and in app purchases, why wouldn’t they be motivated to avoid the “Google tax”?

> There are also easier ways to avoid the Google tax because both Android and Google Play Store is more permissive.

Google is no more permissive about games and in app purchases - where most of the revenue comes from…

And my last two statements aren’t contradictory at all. Cross platform games don’t depend on using native UI elements. Java swing and the other cross platform frameworks are not targeted toward games. But you knew this and are being pedantic.

For what it's worth: creating and stopping/starting Fly Machines is the whole point of the API. If you're on-demand creating new Machines, rather than allocating AOT and then starting/stopping them JIT, you're holding it wrong. :)

(There's a lot I can say about why I think a benchmark like this is showing us unusually well! I'm not trying to argue that people should take this benchmark too seriously.)

Exactly that. Sitting down and thinking about your data structures and APIs before you start writing code seems to be a fading skill.

Does harm reduction include safe access to drugs? Basically this is why all substances need to be legal. So it's regulated. So many needless deaths becasue of overdoses that didn't need to happen. People just need to be supported through their low points so they come out the other side.

To many ignorant people have an opinion on this though, as you can see in some of these comments. If you never used drugs, don't know people that died needlessly, you don't get to have an opinion.
The language server pattern is actually a very good comparison. The web service + web UI approach enables you do use different local and/or cloud AI services. That is why most of these servers/services support the OpenAI API.

I'm assuming this is why you say it's not a silver bullet, but to make it more explicit: the Django ORM will happily generate migrations that will lock crucial tables for long amounts of time and bring down your production application in the process.

You still need to know what SQL the migration will run (take a look at `manage.py sqlmigrate`) and most importantly how your database will apply it.
> I asked them if my gas would be shut off. They said no, they do the work while the gas is still on!

My understanding is that most "last mile" gas lines are pretty low pressure and low flow. On purpose, so that if theirs a leak they aren't releasing massive amounts of gas into the atmosphere in a hurry, so the concentration doesn't raise to dangerous levels.

Then when they are working on the lines and in those pits to make connections, they have detectors to tell if there's a dangerous build up, and ventilation to ensure it doesn't happen anyway.

The system generally being low pressure is why sometimes during really cold periods when demand is high, the gas company has to adjust field regulators to increase flow so that demand can be met. They normally run at low enough flow that if everyone's furnace and stove and water heater all run at once, the lines would effectively run out of gas.

Yes, but don't over compensate and assume life was always "nasty brutish and short" there has always been wat, and war was never the norm.

Our forefathers were just like us, and we fight, but not widespread and not frequently.
The big place that permissive licenses are promoted is in the giant tech companies. This is not a coincidence; it benefits them. That does not mean it benefits us.

With smaller companies we see a lot of *GPL with additional commercial licensing options ... which (assuming the main product is not a library with a non-LGPL license) often is actually still easy to comply with (especially if you only use somebody's prebuilt binaries) if you actually bother, no matter how much the hate train complains.

For individuals it varies a lot by ideology rather than deep thought, but permissive-license-regret is common.
Publishing and importing TypeScript is a huge mistake.

To my knowledge this mirrors the largest meta-analysis I'm aware of (JAMA? Probably way back in 2008 or so though, man I'm getting old) which showed that virtually all diets have a return to baseline weight by 2 years. Will see if I can find the citation. Do you have a recommended counter-example?

Not even true. Anything you say is copyrighted. This comment is copyrighted. I have the legal ability to sue if this is reproduced without my permission.

Publishers yes have an outsized voice, however the solution is not to abolish copyright but to make repercussions for publishers much more onerous.

DMCA needs to be immediately abolished in its current form and instead replaced with a law that a) requires proof of ownership b) proof of identity c) provides comparatively heavy cost for fabrication (submit a false claim, be liable for 1-10k in damages, just for the claim).

Further, repeating truth should not be criminalized. If both myself and another entity want to accurately submit the sky is blue, one of us should not be able to sue the other. So then a takedown becomes strictly a matter of enforceable copyright rather than the current complete nonsense that it is now.
Wrong forum for this question. I wanted universal chat, file transfer, and clipboard sharing across the big 3 desktop and big 2 mobile OSes without being tied to a universal, privacy-invading, primary key like a phone number. Using phone numbers for signup is only a couple degrees from using social security numbers for customer accounts in the 90's. Captchas and account expiry are some of the proper forms of abuse prevention that don't leap straight to privacy invasion with a not truly portable or anonymous unique identifier.

They do, but I've been reluctant to give more power to Amazon. They make us jump through so many hoops and come up with dubious reasons to deny payment, and handing over a bunch of our inventory to them gives them power to control us even more.

Chemo drugs are brutal. I was just reading a study the other day that some testicular cancer survivors treated with cisplatin will have measurable, reactive cisplatin in their blood plasma 20 years after treatment. The stuff really is poison.
The original goal of Free Software, and the part I vibe with, is that you should have full freedom and control of the software you run.

The people taking someone else's tool and rehosting it with better SEO and more ads steals revenue from the original author and makes them less likely to make more open source stuff. It's greedy and hurts the community. I get why people would want non-OSI licences that allow everything but that.

As for whether its Abuse, idk, I don't want to lay out a precise definition and have a semantics argument. But its definitely not a cool thing to do

I don't think there's such a thing as violent / non at a societal level. There are nations at war, and nations at peace, and the ones at war use violence and the ones at peace do not.
Not mentioned yet: you can "mitm" existing APIs, like OpenAI, so that you can use existing applications with Ollama without changing your code.

There was a civilization in South America whose city/cities didn’t have defensive structures, don’t remember the name though.

Edit:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav%C3%ADn_culture

Warfare does not seem to have been a significant element in Chavín culture. The archaeological evidence shows a lack of basic defensive structures in Chavín centres, and warriors are not depicted in art, in notable contrast to the earlier art at Cerro Sechín. Effective social control may have been exercised by religious pressure, and the ability to exclude dissidents from managed water resources. The climate and terrain of the neighbouring areas outside the managed land were a daunting option for farmers wishing to flee the culture. Evidence of warfare has been found only in contemporaneous sites that were not influenced by Chavín culture, almost as if those other civilizations were defending themselves via warfare from Chavín cultural influence.

wow, it seems nothing has kept human growth more in check than other humans and via means of modern technology. and we're getting better at it with every decade.
If your path requires fragmentation to get to the wider world, there's a good chance it simply won't work. There's a small chance that it will work with some destinations. I don't think there's really a place for it in that sense.

Maybe for UDP for protocols where the designers were really optimistic. IMHO, for DNS if you want it to work as much as possible, your queries and responses should fit in 512 bytes, or some people are going to have problems on some networks. DNS over TCP doesn't work everywhere, even if it's supposed to.

It's more palatable to require DNS over TCP or working UDP over fragmented IP if it's for big txt records like for mail, but if your A and/or AAAA records don't fit in 512 bytes, expect lingering problems that are hard to track down.

This has been known for quite some time.

The farmers always win because there are more of them. Hunters have very low population densities.
What does any of that have to do with IP fragmentation?

VPNs work pretty much all the same regardless of which "direction" the tunnel is opened in, its still just normal VPN. Heck, you don't even need a open connection for a VPN, IP itself is stateless and connectionless.

Beyond violence, it's hard for people to contextualize how fragile life was prior to about 300 years ago - a scratch, some bad food, a broken finger, or any of a million tiny things that we just take for granted could kill you. Without an educational system, nobody knew anything except essentially what they gossiped about, learned from their trade or family, or picked up through direct experience. The world was a lot darker and scarier, and that made preemptive violence an effective cultural strategy. Things that reinforced tribal integrity and weakened other tribes, like violent traditions and religions, were effective memes for perpetuating lineages.

There are no humans alive who do not have horrific monsters for ancestors. We are alive and civilized because our ancestors did terrible, monstrous things.

It's wonderful that the dark, terrible things are the anomalies in this period of history, but we need to eliminate the notions of peaceful, paradaisical societies living in harmony with nature before the evil industrial revolution came along and ruined everything.

Humans are vicious, territorial, tribal, warlike animals with a nearly unbroken history of brutality, terror, and murder of outsiders. Our modern civilizations are marvels, even as deeply flawed and imperfect as we are.

It's important to honestly understand the good and the bad of our present situations, it helps us set the expectations for the trajectory of progress.

You could take a human baby from 200,000 years ago and raise them in a modern family in New York and they'd be perfectly adapted to these times. The corollary to that is a little darker - any one of us could have been raised in any of the savage societies thousands of years ago, and we'd have been just as brutal, ignorant, and murderous as any others.

The default assumption about anything before about 500 years ago should be that of a desperate fight for survival. The exceptions are few and far between vast and violent swathes of dead people.
> For a library there is API and there are implementation details. What if test depended on implementation detail?

If the test is in the API testset, it's API. If it isn't, it's an implementation detail.

> What if tests had undisputable bug?

If it's in the API testset, time for a major version bump. If not, fix it.

> Test refactoring requires major release now?

Only if you're refactoring the API, as defined by the API testset, thereby producing a breaking change.

> Realistically test suite will have some execution paths not covered.

Doesn't matter. If the behavior isn't in the API testset, it's not a part of the API.

> But I disagree that it would automate semver.

The point isn't to automate semver, I'm not even sure what that would mean. It's to define it, in a useful and objective way.
You're redefining big-F "Free" software as defined by the GPL, which aims to give users freedom to change their software - and is indifferent to; at best, restricts at the worst, the rights of intermediate software developers who inject themselves between Free software and users by choosing to redistribute or allow their software to be infected by the GPL bits.

IMO, MIT & BSD give downstream developers more rights and are indifferent to end-users. GPL gives users more rights, and indifferent to downstream developers.

What is meant by a "war economy"? It is nothing at all like WWII, if that's what you mean.

The proportion of GDP spent on the military is high relative to other contemporary peaceful countries, but it's tiny relative to countries involved in significant wars.

I wonder what it is relative to the Cold War.

Or is this a dramatic way of expressing something else? Are we looking for drama, caught up in it? That the mechanism of unnecessary wars.
I was only thinking of anthropogenic deaths. But hmm, the deaths in the conquest of the Americas were largely due to accidental infection. So maybe that's a blurry line.

I don’t think anyone is saying that you shouldn’t learn about the licenses you use, only that he’s taking a big-tent view of open source focused on getting more people paid to contribute to the commons so we don’t have so many projects depending on a handful of people choosing to contribute unpaid labor.
