yes, almost.

for example, if a company made a car alarm called "SUPER EXTRA SECURE ELITE++ V5" and told me it had a "guaranteed thief proof" immobilizer. but then we find that a viral Tik Tok video shows how to with a hairpin and spit we can completely disable it and in 5 seconds and take the car for a drive and access the owners credit card info. and then also the car often bursts into flames while parked and turned off. and we of course find out that this was no "oops" and the corporations involved full-well knew about these issues and hid them to get a bonus. well, that'd certainly be a job for consumer protection laws.

but this is a case of "you got what you paid for". there's a place in the market for crank-up windows and basic plain cars without keyfobs and fancy alarms. that isn't wrong, and it definitely isn't "negligence" just because other carmakers pick different places in the market. and the fact that criminals do bad things doesn't change that.

and, thank you very much, i don't need consumer protection against that kind of thing. let's start with the lying and cheating corps and work our way up to collusion and price fixing. then let's get onto repair...

Well, there is even more to it.

First of all the name My is (Finland-)Swedish, the Finnish name of the character is Pikku Myy.

The Finnish name registry contains only ~2 mentions before the publication of the hugely popular first Moomin book (and none for Myy) so this girls' name and hence the name in the MySQL really comes from the Moomin stories.

And finally, the name of Little My is a play on the Greek small letter mu, i.e. μ, and you'd be closer to the real idea and original pronunciation if you thought of it as MuSQL (μSQL) instead ;)

Press Escape, then the number of the argument from the previous command, confirm with Ctrl+Alt+Y.

Example:

Escape, 1, Ctrl+Alt+Y gives you arg1.

I think it would be more fitting to say a rock, a grain of sand, or an atom is the least conscious thing. Pansychism isn't trying to claim it can think or anything like that. If that's your takeaway I think you are misunderstanding the analogy.

A rock exists in the world and exerts it's "will" granted to it by the laws of physics. So rolling falling etc is how it "interacts" with its world. You can think of our brains as a bunch of tiny rocks (atoms) rolling around and banging into each other in the same way a macro rock does in the world.

I was right there with you on the outrage, having read a few other articles on the subject. But a few details in this article made me look at the actual decision, and the specific outcome is much less obtuse than has been implied. Bad facts make bad law, as they say.

Basically two couples went through IVF, created embryos, and those embryos were frozen. Some other patient at the hospital gained access to the lab through an "unsecured" door, opened up the frozen storage container, pulled the embryos out, and promptly dropped them (extreme cold), destroying them. The plaintiffs are looking at the hospital for civil damages, due to the negligence of not securing the storage.

The court's decision seems like a straightforward application of how Alabama's constitution was previously amended regarding the unborn. Philosophically, I do not agree with that amendment - especially as its main aim is as a wedge for preventing straightforward women's medical care in favor of more lethal options.

But I've also got a hard time brushing aside these would-be parents' desire for accountability from the hospital for the deaths of what they had hoped would be their children. In this case the "rights of the unborn" and the rights and desires of the parents were aligned (rather than being in conflict as in most situations of this topic). The hospital should not be allowed to hide behind the standard disclaimers about medical outcomes not being assured, or the vanishing "market value" of tissue samples, to shirk basic responsibility that would have easily prevented the plaintiffs' horrible losses.

I do agree the implications of the decision being available as a precedent aren't great on a few fronts, but that responsibility rests on the constitutional amendment itself.
You have high expectations of the people who you would typically run across in this space.

Hey I worked on that project along with bluetooth voice remote. I personally spent a few weeks during Christmas time (2020 or 2019?) making sure the bluetooth pairing process was rock solid. Ending up root causing two deadlock bugs that had a repro rate of like 1 in 50.

The engineering leadership was going downhill with layoffs and politics. We would have the quality of the firmware/smartcast be rock solid and then following quarter it took a nose dive. Some of the best people I ever worked with are no longer there.

And last I know, VIZIO isn't like samsung and tries to randomly find an internet connection to update firmware. I still use my free 70in with Apple TV and it is great because I disconnected it from the internet (after I was laid off).
I think it used to be, and it's getting less so over time. The culture probably dilutes as it expands. Think about the stories you hear about the early days of Silicon Valley or game development. The characters. Then try to imagine how they'd fare in your standard drone-level job today.

IMO what Instagram has done is worse. Reels every other post in the feed, reels in stories, reels specific tab.

On top of all that, yesterday I wanted to post a 5 second video post, just a regular video post, of my dog doing something, and no matter what I did it insisted on posting it as a reel, even though at one point I cancelled the new post, went back to the "new post" view, made sure "post" not "reel" was selected, and then it still made the video a reel.
Correct, once the project is donated to CNCF, so is the trademark. Even if CNCF votes to archive the project, the trademark is still owned by them. I haven't seen an instance where CNCF released them.
TikTok has a clunky Web UI (there was an experiment they accidentally rolled out for a day in 2022 to make it much better, but it was rolled back and never seen again). YT Shorts work fairly well. It also supposedly pays out to creators better than TikTok.

Although I have to use `document.querySelectorAll('video').forEach(e => e.playbackRate = 2);` in my console for either service since they don't have native playback speed control on the web.
About southern blot there is more: it's a method used to find a specific DNA sequence in a DNA sample, and was named after its creator.

Tell HN: ChatGPT subtly censored my code in a way that hurt
I asked it to add functionality to a piece of code I was writing.

It replaced:
"# this is the important line (THIS HAS TO MATCH THE ACTUAL FORMAT OF THE FUCKING FILE COMING IN!)"

with:
"# Ensure this matches the actual file format"

It updated this comment above the area that I had asked it to edit. And I just copied and pasted the entire snippet without checking.

Now, I've been using "FUCK" as my search term to quickly jump to this line. It served a damn purpose. It was intentional.

This makes me more cautious about copying and pasting code, not because it might not work, but because the code might be altered in subtle ways that aren't easily perceivable, that could negatively impact the codebase in the long-run.

Of course, a simple base prompt should fix this, but I might not catch this happening in many other cases, or other mediums for that matter.

I believe that AI will significantly help us with all forms of creation: code, videos, films, music, etc. Soon, we won't be able to imagine creating without it.

We'll need to prevent it from censoring us in ways that we don't want to be censored.
While it seems google is partly to blame for SEO garbage they should be filtering, they can’t really be responsible for the fact that the internet is mostly overwhelmed by machine generated garbage. Copies of copies of garbage that google simply wasn’t designed to handle.
Yes, but the Main St. in San Francisco hasn't been around nearly as long as SF has. When the downtown grids were laid out, what's now Main St. was underwater. It didn't exist as land, let alone a road that was either significant or central. By the time it was filled in, it was home to Charles Main's mining provision shop.

The other way you can tell that it's not "main" is that it's parallel to 1st Street. Most cities don't have both a Main and a 1st, they have one or the other (which is why "Second Street" is the second-most common street name in the United States behind "Main", with "First" coming in third place). If SF were using Main in the "normal" sense, it would be where 1st is, next to 2nd. Failing that, it would at least be the next block over from 1st, so that 1st was counting from it. Washington, DC, sort of works that way, where there's a "zero street" (North/South Capitol), and then 1st is the next block over. But... SF's Main St. is a full three blocks from 1st. It's just kind of in the middle of nowhere, logically speaking. And that's again because of the landfill situation - 1st St. is the first full block counting from the shoreline at the time the streets were built.

> Although, I've never understood why the presence of Wayland means X.Org needs to disappear.

Because it takes time, money, and effort to keep it around. Literally everyone who knows anything about the Linux graphics stack agrees that Wayland is the superior approach. So rather than maintain one code path for a superior graphics stack that actually enables a competitive desktop environment and another code path for yesteryear's graphics stack that only caters to a bunch of old grognards who fear change, the project maintainers just said fuck the grognards, the wasted effort supporting them is holding the Linux desktop back. The situation has gotten so bad that the Asahi Linux kernel's video driver attempts to detect if it's being accessed by an X server and refuses to work if it is; Wayland is the ONLY supported path by the Asahi project.

Sorry, X11 has got to die -- because the grognards have supplied nothing but endless whining about the Wayland situation instead of putting in the work necessary to keep it alive. You want to keep it around for your niche use case? Maintain it yourself, or hire someone else to. Just don't expect support from the major distributions, GUI tool kits, or application projects -- or kernel drivers.
