>I would have never believed all this just a few years ago, how it will go down.

They have been following the same playbook since 2014. I'll tell you how it will go; Salami tactics.

Invasion of crimea,
Annexation of parts of georgia,
Annex Belarus,
Annex Kiev,
expand military and mining presence in the artic,
Incite war in serbia with other baltic states,
annex a modern yugoslavia.

At this point they will be the only major power who has been on a war footing for 10+ years. (US Skirmishes do not really count). They will have the inhouse manufacturing capabilities and knowledge to execute a ground war with the EU and will start by taking Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. I believe once they accomplish the above, they will be happy... for a generation or so.
Perhaps. I would have phrased it "Nobody understands IP fragmentation", but sometimes when delivering to a room of experts you need to increase the volume a little bit.

Of course, it really depends on whether you can actually back this up! And in this case Val does, quite clearly.
We shouldn't assume people know what things they want. Evidence is to the contrary.

> I think it’s important that people trust what others say and don’t try to project their own beliefs.

Exactly. Saying tinder is for long term people or short term is projection. It'sa tool. You use it however you do.
> I don't have to pick apart the different modes and qualities of adoption.

Actually, you do have to make proper counter-arguments. That is how a debate works. Simply declaring your opponent's arguments as "risible" is not cool.

If you please, explain how DNSSEC adoption is different from HTTPS adoption. They seem to have quite close analogs: In the usual case, both are done by the server operators (authoritative DNS server and web server, respectively), not by the end customers themselves, and the server operators also handle and hold all related public and private keys.

You seem to be arguing upthread that DNSSEC adoption somehow does not count since the end customer does not hold the keys themselves. But the same is the case for typical web hosting. So how is this different?
If you find this stuff useful, I recommend also checking out our pygraphistry umap() for a few reasons here:

- by visually linking similar entities, vs just a scatter plot of values floating around or binning, you see a lot of the substructure and non-linkages these tools otherwise mislead you on

- you get a full interactive suite for on-the-fly visual encodings, drilling, reclustering, etc for wheb you start investigating it

- automatic support for heterogenous data. Ex: for user analysis, combine profile + name embeddings with numeric, date, Boolean, etc features, so you can work with the real dataset, not just a couple columns

For video/images, there are other tools I'd recommend because they add another layer of nuance. But for this kind of text, tabular, etc data, we've come to be opinionated and built in a lot here over the last few years, including with cool work by our collaborators at Nvidia (rapids)

SemVer is just a pinky-swear not to break people's code. In the real world, people's code breaks anyway, and then you get an argument about what's API, and expected behavior, and so on, and so forth.

What I'm proposing is simply to replace the pinky promise with tests. From some of the other comments, I think this point may have been missed: it isn't every test in your test suite, it's the ones marked "API", only.

This is a strict improvement over social-contract SemVer in two ways: one is that the package manager won't let the maintainers break the API tests without a major version bump. The other is that, if you, as a user, are unsure if some behavior is part of the stable API, you can write and submit a test to that package. If that test is accepted, great: that behavior now cannot change without a major version bump, because, again, the package manager will not bundle the package if that test breaks. Furthermore, even on a major version bump, it is instantly clear if that test is still valid, or not, you can just check before upgrading. If they don't accept the PR, you know that it isn't considered part of the API, so you add the test to your own test suite, so that at least you know quickly what broke if they change it.

What if they allow non-phone-number-verified accounts to only place calls/texts to users only where the non-verified is already in that user's contacts?

That would prevent spam. The only people who would hear from the non-verified account is people who already took the effort to place the non-verified account username in their contacts.

(I've never used Signal and I have no idea what how it works.)
When everyone has a phone in their pocket, this would be a folly.

In Malaysia, it’s common for the menu to be entirely digital - you scan a qr code, and you’re then presented with the menu, from which you then order and often pay directly on your phone. Some places remember who you are and show your previously ordered dishes at the top of the menu.
Why not just hold it elsewhere?

Mr. Rodriguez recently moved into a new community outside San Antonio called Elm Trails, which was developed by Lennar Corporation, one of the country’s largest homebuilders. His house sits in a line of mini dwellings, the smallest of which is just 350 square feet.

On a recent evening after work, neighbors were walking dogs and chatting along a row of beige, gray and olive-green two-story homes of the same shape. The development has a pond where residents picnic and catch bass and catfish. The houses do not have garages, and their driveways are wide enough for one vehicle or two motorcycles — proportions that pushed the sale prices to well under $200,000.

“I wanted to own, and this was the cheapest I could get,” said Mr. Rodriguez, who moved in this month and works at a poultry processing plant in nearby Seguin, Texas. He paid $145,000 and hopes the house can be a step toward wealth building. Maybe in a few years he will move and rent it out, Mr. Rodriguez said.

I thought we were long past the point where we would compare OpenAI's strategy to it's "non-profit mission" and where it could have been "invalidated" based on this.
You can't. That is the reality we live in now. Tools like Nightshade and Glaze are already behind the curve, decimate the quality of your work visually, and even if they do work, they will always be playing catch up to models.
One of the best examples of this was animated drawings that either the verge or engadget used in their Xbox and PlayStation reviews a few years ago.

Do we know for sure if gitlab cloud uses a multi-tenanted database, or a db per user/customer/org? In my experience products that offer both a self hosted and cloud product tend to prefer a database per customer, as this greatly simplifies the shared parts of the codebase, which can use the same queries regardless of the hosting type.

If they use a db per customer then no one will ever approach those usage limits and if they do they would be better suited to a self hosted solution.
I don't think I really hide my stance on this website.

You might remember a few.

But nonetheless, the specifics always matter. While you might think society is more about the feels, there's a lot of reals that guide people too.

Avoiding the specifics is probably fruitful, but you will not convince me without it.
It is really complicated, and I'm not at all an expert, but I believe it is more complex than "they are sovereign, end of story".

Through centuries of conquest and betrayal, the US governments have eroded much of the tribes' previous power, and these days they exist under a complex legal framework in which they have some sovereignty and some autonomy, but not to the same degree that, say, Canada or China have. Their rights under US law are granted by (and can be revoked by) acts of Congress. Lacking their own militaries and international diplomacy, they are more like states than countries as we think of them.

But it's actually way more complicated than that and depends on whether the tribe is federally recognized, what specific rights Congress withheld from them, whether they are prosecuting tribesmembers, other Indians, or non-Indian Americans, etc.

At the end of the day, it unfortunately comes down to who has the bigger stick. Tribes can say no all they want but it's up to the US Congress to listen or not. And they don't necessarily have the same Constitutional protections that US states have, either. It just really depends. And again, I'm not an expert at all!

For the same reason I prefer a well stocked physical library. University libraries tend to be the best for browsing. Something about walking slowly down an aisle and glancing over the spines of so many books.

This time it didn't seem to work out well for the organizers. The organization behind the Hugo Awards "Worldcon Intellectual Property" announced resignations and censures in response to this:

> Dave McCarty has resigned as a Director of W.I.P.

> Kevin Standlee has resigned as Chair of the W.I.P. Board of Directors (BoD).

> Dave McCarty – censured for his public comments that have led to harm of the goodwill and value of our marks and for actions of the Hugo Administration Committee of the Chengdu Worldcon that he presided over.

> Chen Shi – censured for actions of the Hugo Administration Committee of the Chengdu Worldcon that he presided over.

> Kevin Standlee – reprimanded for public comments that mistakenly led people to believe that we are not servicing our marks.

> Ben Yalow – censured for actions of the Hugo Administration Committee of the Chengdu Worldcon that he presided over.

The only downside that I see is that the runtime needs to be able to compile older versions of TS with all the quirks of that specific TS version, so likely it would need to ship multiple TS compilers.

I think there's a lot of room to innovate in the JavaScript package manager and registry space.

• support for optional features and dependencies tied to them, ala cargo. How many npm vulnerabilities are introduced thru the command line parser of a package you only use as a library?

• step away from packag.json. It's fine to keep it for the registry or even runtime, but development should use a file that supports comments.

• some automated version compatibility enforcement via typedefs or registry side tests.

• packages with more than one artifact so types, original source, and platform native artifacts can be published in one package but download only when needed.

I think it could be sexy! I honestly think a graphical user interface designed from first principles to be accessible would also be kind of incredible for everyone else to use too, much in the way many accessibility improvements (in the US at least) like curb ramps and subtitles make things better for everyone as a side effect. Honestly, I think an ideally a11y interface might end up working like a modern easier on the eyes version of Symbolics Genera — think about it: every UI element on the screen actually retrievably connected to its underlying data representation, and imbued with a ton of semantic metadata that's designed to be used to actively facilitate further interactions with the UI (maybe for instance a generalized way to attach metadata about related UI elements to each UI element, so the UI itself essentially forms a sort of semantic hypertext web you can navigate behind the scenes), as well as composability, rearrangeability, and scriptability! That would probably be a massive boon for disabled people and also amazing for us nerds. Perhaps it would even have a focus on representing the interface in terms of that metadata, with the visual elements being sort of abbreviations/overlays on top of that metadata, sort of like how Emacs does graphics and GUI elements?
An ORM is NEVER the solution, ever ever ever. Repeat after me: ORMs are not the solution to this problem. They work in your little toy apps with 4 customers but they are nothing but pain on real enterprise grade software.

Personally, I don’t care whether physical menu is available or not. But my smallest pet peeve is not having the online menu available, because sometimes they take the menu with them after placing the first bunch of orders, then I gotta ask for the menu again… then the dance continues.
Most indications are that the people doing the censoring didn't put much effort into investigating what the actual laws and regulations were over in China, either. If you look at the emails there's a lot of 'I'm not sure whether this will be a problem'-style language, and aggressively filtering out anyone who might cause an issue based on what they imagined the law to be. It's possible they could have let all the candidates sail through and the government there wouldn't have protested, though I wouldn't be surprised if some of the candidates would indeed end up blocked.

It seems plausible to me that there will be companies specialising in generating films within certain genres. I'm sure an action or horror film would be easier to pull off than a drama or a comedy, for instance.

Horror in particular seems doable, because it could easily be much more forgiving of weird surreal effects etc.
That’s a post hoc acryonym. The phrases like “rice rocket”, “rice burner”, etc. were applied to Japanese cars and motorcycles when those really started putting American companies and their enthusiast communities on the defensive. Whether or not that was an insult is debatable but the meaning was focused on Japan (whose business dominance was feared in the 1980s and early 90s).

Southern California had an Asian car culture which was all about customizing mostly Japanese imports, and there was a lot of debate in the 90s about the exact racial dynamics there (like other terms, some outsiders used it as an insult and some insiders wore it as a badge of pride). For fans of the early web, I’m amused to see this site is still around probably a quarter of a century after the last time I visited:

The content is trained upon styles and techniques and aesthetics built upon by artists in the context of history. Society and those current realities mixed with the ability to conceptualize the future and enact change in ways that reach humans hearts not minds are the stimuli to the artists art. These factors are paramount to a healthy and abundant culture that embraces ideas and creative expression as they speak to the life of humanity and its existence in history.

AI Video is empty, cheap, stolen. It can replicate and regurgitate old ideas into a series of novel but empty new ones. But they do not incorporate present stimuli, the human connection and empathy to its own situation/geography. These break the growth of culture into nothing more than content. Farm feed. Devoid of soul, lacking of modern relevancy, devoid of political anything.

AI will produce content, movies, songs, it will produce memes about them, and comments about their meaning. But humans will look at it from the outside. Not connected at all.

If anyone is curious I highly recommend exploring the desktop app implementation. So many of security guarantees that Signal ostensibly provides are gone in desktop environments where any app you have installed can read ~/Library/Application Support/Signal to and see all your contacts and messages in using the encryption key stored in cleartext in config.json.

https://vmois.dev/query-signal-desktop-messages-sqlite/
It's not really a bug. It's a design decision.

There's no clear solution for it from an encryption perspective without a big tradeoffs (like requiring all participants to be online at the same time).

Besides, the larger the group, the more likely that one of the nodes has been compromised anyway. Everything's a tradeoff -- don't depend on the security of a single solution if you're really trying to keep a secret; defense in depth.
That's how all censorship regimes work. If other people didn't do most of the job for you, you'd get hopelessly backed up. Preferably the author does it themselves.
You can still install from disc by unplugging it, though, so is it that much of a real reduction in attack surface?
