I've repeatedly made the mistake (to the degree that it was a habit up until recently) of assuming the intent of other people, and adding matching caveats to my speech rather than giving the other person the opportunity to express themselves (or not). Asking questions and waiting for the answer, as long as it takes, even if it's uncomfortable, has been a change that feels healthy.

Another mistake I made is that for a year or so I replaced running with walking. I now do both again; running for one set of mental and physical benefits, and walking for a different set of mental and physical benefits. I expect I'll be back to a healthier weight in a few months, and less irritable within days. I'll also sleep better and not feel so restless and unused.

Third mistake: putting off finding a sense of purpose, and playing videogames for decades instead. The bar to engagement is so low with well-designed games that they provided a temporary sense of purpose that left me feeling hollow afterwards. It's not all bad, as these games (Diablo 1-3, WoW, and Hearthstone being the most compelling slots machines) may well have kept me away from other potentially-more-harmful escapes, and kept me even-keel enough to make it where I am today (a parent helping to raise our child, and someone who finally practices work-THEN-play rather than full-bore procrastination). I still play games, but a much smaller subset and almost entirely just with a couple close friends, as a way to stay in touch. I've sworn off all Blizzard games and most solo games. When I do get sucked in (most recently Slay the Spire, for a couple weeks), I see it for what it is, go along for the ride, and dismount & move on, appreciating the art and craft and not beating myself up for time I wasn't reading a book or going for a walk (though going for a wander in a less-familiar part of the woods pushes a lot of the buttons I like games for). Having a sense of purpose is important to me, and I actively pushed it away when I was younger because I conflated it with religion.
Because you might have architects specifying exactly what needs to be programmed, so the software development part is mostly done.

They aren't representative of the general public. This can still make it very interesting though. Do trends show up earlier among commentators? If so, has the time it takes for the trends to flow to the mainstream changed over time. Has the likelihood at which online commentator trends flow to the mainstream changed? It's the influence more pronounced for specific subjects?
This is more restriction than necessary, and unkind to users who may be technically unsophisticated, distracted, sick that day, or just kinda dumb.

Include a link, make it a part of the core domain, short, and prominent: https://example.com/contact. If the user isn't logged in, lead with a login flow explaining "If you received a message from us, login for details", and include a contact form, phone number, and if there's a chat with customer support, that too.

These are all things a phish can spoof to some degree, but that's not a good reason to force the user to figure out how to resolve whatever problem you're bringing to their attention.

I assume you know that you can open a claim? They'll either find your package really fast, or will have to pay its full value. Often the vendor has to initiate the claim. If the vendor doesn't want to open a claim, refund. If the vendor doesn't want to refund, chargeback.

Yeah that's not far off, but I think JCD is kind of captive to that. Curry has always been a whack job to some extent but kind of amusing when he's not laughing at terrible shit like you've pointed out (which I missed but don't doubt).
California has historically had some of the largest consumption of cannabis and the highest density of entrepreneurship.
Not surprising. One of the big changes over the last 10-15 years was the centralization of content onto Social Media Platforms (with textual content being completely sidelined). That coupled with the advent of smartphones, means people don't browse the "open" web as they did pre-2010. This in turn collapsed ad-revenue and companies like Vice are paying the price for that.
Now the Alexanderplatz is going to stink to high heavens.

Is there higher risk of infection transmission? I'm sure those reports a few years ago of serious lung infections from tainted vape oils are biasing my thinking here, but it also makes some sense that a high-temperature flame on a dry medium wouldn't transmit nearly as many microorganisms as a lower temperature vaporization of a wet medium.

It's very non-linear, such that conversation quality doesn't matter much.

A person below the attractiveness threshold gets basically no matches, so no chance to talk. A person above the threshold gets a huge number of "already motivated" matches, so no need for good talk. Conversation quality only matters for the small number of marginal cases (maybe 20% of users)
Wouldn't be from a legal sense, but the societal implications of technology like that becoming commonplace are still immense. The limitations of human memory provide safety in a way today that would quickly erode if everybody could remember exactly everything that's ever been said or seen around them.
To me it's the difference between building a road and urban planning.
Note that Archive Team and the Internet Archive are separate, unaffiliated entities, though they do often work together.

Archive Team is a loosely organised group of individual volunteers that share a common interest in Internet preservation, and develop tools and share notes to serve that goal. They're basically one of your old-school Mediawiki communities, with very little budget:

https://wiki.archiveteam.org/

Internet Archive is a full-blown multimillion dollar `501(c)(3)` nonprofit, which functions as more of a general-purpose library. They maintain physical offices and datacentres in multiple countries, host many petabytes of data, do activism, run conferences, and when they develop custom tools it tends to be somewhat more advanced than the Archive Team's decentralized web scrapers, like custom book scanning hardware:

https://archive.org/details/eliza-digitizing-book_202107

A lot of the information in the Wayback Machine, which is run by the Internet Archive, was saved and contributed by Archive Team. For example, as of writing this comment, that is true of the latest snapshot of `https://www.vice.com/en`. You can see this with the "About this capture" button on a Wayback Machine capture.

Both groups have ways to receive monetary donations.

For Archive Team though, I wonder if it would be more useful to donate compute by running their Warrior archiving VM/container, or contributing code to their GitHub:

For a blind person, yeah some games, like Mario and Zelda, and older Final Fantasy games, are hard to understand without descriptions.
Ya, programming/maintnence/testing are the easy parts of our job. Especially work politics, but keeping up with paper work (OKRs, perf reviews, status reports, design documents that might not ever be read by anyone else...) is the hard part, and I guess why we get paid so much?
Nothing beats a pad and pencil.
People here don't care.

When I read the story that schools in my area had been installing spyware on students phones I assumed it was some kind of isolated thing. But my GF works in schools so I asked her if she knew of this app and she was like, "oh yeah, all the kids have it".

I found this utterly insane but she seemed to think it was a good thing if it could be used to protect kids. And I guess I get the argument, but you could say the same thing about the government installing CCTV in everyone's homes... You need to draw lines, especially when there's an expectation of privacy.

This is my concern with facial recognition in shops too. If I go into a shop I expect people to see my face, so a simple CCTV system seems fine. I even expect people who know me might recognise who I am, so again, if a human being I've interacted with before identifies me on the CCTV system I'm okay with this. What I don't think people expect is to be identified by some automated national biometric system which checks to see if you've ever stolen anything before so it can alert security, while also trying to understand your emotions and individual purchasing habits.

I used to work for a large highstreet retail org and was literally pitched on a system which could identify our customers and tell us how they feel about their shopping experience and their shopping habits.

But like I say, no one cares. I've spoken about this with people so often and they act like I'm some kind of privacy lunatic. That said, people here get very animated if someone can access data they've personally shared to Facebook and made publicly available.
Same with the orchids my grandma keeps. Weed isn’t more difficult than (quite a few) other plants people have been growing at home.
I think you miss the point. Docs-as-code says keep the docs where the code is, and manage the docs like you manage code, using tools like git. Mostly(?) to reduce friction for software developers to actually contribute useful documentation.
Something I would like to mention, as a dev on Brave, is that patches are considered a last resort. If there are patches, we try to keep them lightweight - like patch to have Chromium create the Brave version of the object (something we can restrict to one line).

What you'll notice more often is a folder we have called `chromium_src`. This directory mirrors the directory structure for Chromium under `src` and the build system will look for matches. If there's a file with the same name under `chromium_src`, it'll prefer that one. That file then does what it needs to differently and then includes the original file.

This approach helps keep things much more lightweight - but it has challenges too. If code fails to apply (file that `chromium_src` is matching gets renamed, etc) it can be hard to detect. This is where you'd want to have a test to catch that.

Another person shared - but here's a link to our patching documentation:
https://github.com/brave/brave-browser/wiki/Patching-Chromiu...

You'll notice the actual patching itself is introduced with the caveat:

There is a great book and/or movie just waiting to be made about Satoshi. Such a great story.
How do you realize that one is building the wrong thing?
you can designate 5 replicas through a service file, its pretty basic but does the job:

services:
myservice:
image: myimage
replicas: 5

you can also determine how many hosts are running replicas based on the current usage and available resources. quite similar to k8s yet easier to manage, at least for me.

i think more of deployment aspects, for docker you literally just install docker and add your hosts, for k8s it's dependent on what you want, rancher, k3s, microk8s or other and setups differ very much on what you might want.

That's exactly the motivation I saw for Access being used in the past. I agree, those days are over and that justification for using Access is moot.
As a Canadian who was raised on British English, I seamlessly switch between British and American English when interacting with clients from the US, England, and Canada. This flexibility in language is quite natural to me. Furthermore, for someone who meticulously conceals their identity, adapting in such a manner would likely be effortless and unremarkable.

The anonymized form is only for the "automatic" reports without anyone asking. The authority can request — §26(2) — the data (= non-anonymized) at any point based on without any requirement for a specific reason.

That said, "the authority" is not necessarily the police or public prosecutor; the determination who does this is left to the federal state (who might make it the police/prosecutor, or not…) — presumably if they're not "the authority" themselves, they would have to ask "the authority" to forward it.
Just be careful they don't absorb too much of an anti-intellectual attitude from peer pressure and end up resistant to activities that sound like learning.

Soon we'll have AI writing books, then reading them for us so we don't have to.

There is value to that, if we mostly only use this capability to digest books we otherwise wouldn't read but also if we don't stop reading books. Most likely we'll just stop reading books, and that strikes me as scary.
I wear glasses and every lens I've ever owned has been some type of plastic. Yes small scratches add up over a year but it isn't that bad. The coatings they have do a pretty good job to reduce scratching.

Apple is using thin glass covered with a soft plastic. Why possible advantage could that ever have over solid plastic with an anti-scratch coating?
Those of us who have been around long enough know that Git knowledge is useless knowledge as it will disappear at some point.

>Its sad that Vice feels like they can only gain value from social media and YouTube.

It's not that they 'feel' this - this is a fact. You cannot survive on ad revenue running a web magazine anymore. Also, people don't browse the web anymore the way they used to. Everyone hangs out on social media platforms on their phones.
If you're a US citizen, don't sleep on I-bonds for your emergency fund.

The current rate for I-bonds is 5.27%. It adjusts up or down automatically with inflation. The only catch is you can't put in more than $10k per calendar year, and if you withdraw before 5 years you give up 3 months of interest. Much, much better than a CD.

What do you mean? Kuinox was guessing a reason for the thread author's disapproval of Brave.

Brave failed to tell the user that the people they donated BAT to won't receive the money if they didn't sign up to Brave Creators [1]:

> In December 2018, British YouTube content creator Tom Scott said that he had not received any donations collected on his behalf by Brave.[42][43] Two days after the complaint, Brave issued an update to "clearly indicate which publishers and creators have not yet joined Brave Rewards so users can better control how they donate and tip"[44] and in January 2020 another update to change the behaviour of unclaimed tips.

Brave (by accident? or so the company said) automatically added referral codes to cryptocurrency site URLs in the address bar [1]:

> On 6 June 2020, a Twitter user pointed out that Brave inserts affiliate referral codes when users navigate to Binance.[47][48] Further research revealed that Brave also redirected the URLs of other cryptocurrency exchange websites.

So is the Flipper Zero. The difference is the Flipper actually fucking works out of the box. Pine shit usually doesn't.

And the refrain from Pine is "iTs a HaCkER dEViCe"... so we don't have to actually provide minimally functioning software or not have hardware faults that destroy hardware (read: pinephone pro usb +keyboard/battery usb = fry shit).

Pine could actually be top tier. But they chose to cobble the worst shit together, the rarest/weirdest chips that arent even in the linux kernel (read: gongkai stuff found only in shenzhen), and then act like it's great while it's 100% unsupported crap and MAYBE work in 5 years if anyone cares.

If it had cracked while in use, perhaps due to the processors heating, but the battery is external to the device, so I don’t see how that’s relevant. I suspect a manufacturing defect personally, given that the heat comes from the computer inside and not the battery.
Yep.

- Knowing what you really want - and reflecting one minute about something before starting it. If you're clear with yourself that you don't want to do something, it helps too.
- understanding a bit more about motivation in general (why we do what we do, Edward L. Deci)
- Knowing what extrinsic motivation may motivate you or not and reflecting a bit on it: a bit more money, anticipating nice things, the joy of things well done, reognition. Working on some vain thing for a better performance review (for the boss, conditioning yours) next year doesn't motivate everyone.
- Sharing the psychological burden: talking about it, linking with other projects, some kinds of collaborative work. Maybe I'm getting older, but I sometimes suspect a lot of the bulsh* meetings and collaboration at work serve mainly this purpose. Not every method works for everyone though.
- Solving general health problems, anxiety, depression, sleep apnea issues of course helps.
Don't be discouraged, you don't have to follow everything.

In fact it's probably better to dive deep into one hobby project like you're doing than constantly context switch with every little news item that comes up.

While working on gemma.cpp there were definitely a lot of "gee i wish i could clone myself and work on that other thing too".
No, the FS should verify the hash on creation/update. Otherwise corruption during creation/update would just cause the hash to match the corrupted data.
Cool, any plans on adding K quants, an API server and/or a python wrapper? I really doubt most people want to use it as a cpp dependency and run models at FP16.
> These models often perform differently (read: worse) when they are released publicly, and we don’t know how Gemini will perform when it’s tasked with operating at Google scale.

I seriously hope Google learns from ChatGPT's ever-degrading reputation and finds a way to prioritize keeping the model operating at peak performance. Whether it's limiting access, raising the price, or both, I really want to have this high quality of an experience with the model when it's released publicly.
Thats so strange to me. I work with git every day and don’t use rebase. If you asked me in the interview I’d fail that. But if you asked me that question in real life I’d give you the answer in 30 seconds after looking at the documentation, and everything would carry on without a hitch.

Do you wear glasses or know someone who does? Most of us have plastic lenses with an anti-scratch coating. It works pretty well.

What advantage would there be to switch from plastic lenses for practical items like glasses to glass lenses with a thin soft plastic coating?
Palantir already provides this product to them.
JerryRigEverything did his usual scratch test with an AVP and the "front glass" scratches with picks of Mohs hardness 3... What kind of poor quality glass is this? Maybe it's just the coating that failed?

I take it you are not based in Germany, and certainly not Berlin, then.

Nice so, of moving the goal post, litterally, from Berlin to France. Not that I expected anything else.
For sure. While at the same time allowing the more clever variety of abuser to sail on past.

In practice, almost any nominally "neutral" position ends up allowing an enormous amount of abuse. Which is why you'll see most platforms that start with a free-speech maximalism approach coming up with a lot of nuance and exceptions over time. And those that don't turn into cesspools.

Most people are pretty great, but moderation has to be built for the worst-case attacker.
