Biden is letting a whole ass army of military-age young men into the country and burning all our money in expensive wars that might turn nuclear. He has to be voted out. Besides that, he's so obviously incompetent and senile, it would be a sick joke to keep him in. I figure either way, we're getting trouble. At least if we get someone else, we might have a chance to get our affairs in order, even if there are a few people freaking out about "far right" candidates (aka anyone the uniparty hates).
Grumman wasn’t operating their own Mission Control — NASA did. But NASA isn’t operating this mission, similar to how they don’t operate SpaceX missions even if they are funding them.
The title is misspelled. The company's name is “AT&T”.
Extremely so in my opinion. In this day and age, viewing something like this means this company fundamentally doesn't understand security. It should simply be impossible to "incorrectly point to the production environment", because whoever ran this shouldn't even have access to those credentials in the first place.
No, what triggered Woke 1.0 was a psyop around Occupy Wall Street, years before Trump was even a candidate. It was a diversion used to break up the protest. Since then, corporations have embraced it as a shield against future protests. They engineered this strife and they are likely to lose control eventually as all the hatred they planted boils over.

That's only for the web service. Workers and R2 let you do video just fine. And small videos don't need any fancy logic, just toss them over http.

> Size uploads could help in that situation, but it's a bandaid on a bullet wound when the video still gets played a million times, y'know?

No, I legitimately don't know. Why is it different from an image that gets a million views?
You're right, of course, GDPR made many to many relationships illegal, even when used as an illustrative example.

TSMC doesn't seem to use their market power to push price. Their take of the final consumer sale price is quite low... they're selling chips to NVDA for ~2k which NVDA turns around and sells for ~60k.

I haven't researched it in-depth, but my take is that they don't have the culture to really be aggressive on pricing.

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

I feel like the best part of the internet is dying (good written detailed content), but the worst part of it is surviving and thriving: social media (short lived, low quality, clickbaity, dopamine chasing content).

I think perhaps you don't understand because you presumably have a reasonable amount of money and cashflow buffer. It's hard to appreciate how much of a trap credit cards are if you have very little money, or live truly paycheck to paycheck. Its so easy to accidentally run past your "$0" and be stuck in the world of 30%+ interest for a long time, spending multiples of the initial cost.

As such, debit cards are still very popular for people who need to control every dollar, which is a lot more people than you think. Often folk would rather a transaction be denied than to go into expensive debt - they've been burned, they've learned the hard way.
The fundamental, absolutely fundamental problem here is the assignation of agency to the model. This is milestone. Post-moderms are conducted when corporations need to assess responsibility and assign blame. Truly they have earned their ML generated MTG card status as mage to have right under the noses of everyone, shifted the very possibility of blame onto the "AI" giving it agency as a legal expediency, fiduciary if we're stretching it.

I think YouTube is the counter argument to this - long form content from passionate people has taken off pretty good there. Perhaps it's just me, but it seriously makes the rest of social media look like an absolute trashfire by comparison.
> That did strike me as a very mature position.

Perhaps. But it might not be the kind of maturity that comes from 40 years of witnessing what politician promises are worth.

There are never politicians that ought to be adored.
Agree, the table is the component we’ve spent the most time building: https://retool.com/components/table-new
Vintage is 5 years after end of sales: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201624. If the people at your store told you 2-3 years after you bought it they were not only very wrong, but also completely out of their mind given that just AppleCare alone would have put your coverage at 3 years.
> And yet, the vast majority of American language, culture, law, civil institutions, etc., come from the British. That’s why there are deep similarities between the Anglo countries on a variety of dimensions.

And yet the English language is a West Germanic language.

Culture is objectively NOT a vast majority British.

Law - so what. Civil institutions - not really. Country was inspired by Parliament and Magna Carta but devised a better foundation.

The US is nothing like Great Britain. There's vastly more impact from Italians, Irish, Germans, French, Spanish, Mexicans and Blacks in our cities than British. Almost nobody celebrates anything British in any city lol. We celebrate our victory over them and that's it. California and Texas alone are bigger than the entire UK. British descendants are just a blip on the 330M+ population.

Yet you find celebrations and cuisine and other cultures and impact from many other ancestries and heritages. US Infrastructure - Irish and Chinese built railroads. Highway system was derived from the Germans. The British are irrelevant and again, your people back home are just wrong in their understanding.

I'm not playing a word game. You have a very antiquated perspective and I don't think you quite understand America. That's not abnormal. Many you might consider way more American than you don't either.

I understand what you are saying though. I truly do. I just think it's a non-productive perspective for this country. What point does it serve to alienate and put people in a box?

I have Muslim employees. They don't partake in things that others do. It's ok. I know Bangladeshi & Indian men share a bunch of values and perspectives with southern US men over northerners in general too. They also share values with regard to hierarchy/age/position with many New Yorkers and Chicagoans.

No American citizen needs to feel so insecure because they might have different values or don't share a certain culture. People that have never left America don't share the same cultures or values either (north vs south, right vs left). We have distinct regional cultures and we have anomalies even within states (Miami, Vegas, Austin, Chicago).

Your original statement "If my ancestors had shaped the America that exists today it would look very different!"

That's the point of America. At some point there were Blacks, Mexicans, Irish and Italians that felt like that.

Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. And a general belief in exceptionalism is a tradition.

E pluribus enum - out of many, one. That's what happened. And what will continue to happen. Your British narrative is just false.

I doubt it's that Crossover focuses on games, it's just that it shares a code base with Proton which does, so it gets the game support "for free".

This implies that their production environment is mutable. As in, a command can run and change the production environment. That’s a no no.

But I give them a pass because they are a young company. My company was similarly reckless early on, but as we scaled, we had to tighten things up and turning to an immutable deployment approach has saved our asses so many times.

That’s correct.

Only skip-a-heartbeat moment was when aws sent me an email saying that you I have “one or more S3 buckets that allow read or write access from any user on the Internet”

But none of my containers had write access. All of them had public read, but yeah, it’s a website and they know this: their own route53 DNS points to the containers.

They just sent the same generic mass email to everyone with any public container.
Note that your examples are very much dated---there are simply too many things in the scene for that suggestion to work. Do you know what followed OS/2? Yeah, eComStation and ArcaOS, both are not descriptive (except for the "OS" part, which doesn't really help). How about APL? Of course, J and K among others (and J is named because it's easy to type [1]). Even RISC family of Berkeley architectures had used other names for RISC III ("SOAR") and IV ("SPUR") before coming back to RISC-V.

I have a suspicion theory that Photopea is not some magical one-man project that is so good in the browser, but just a Remote Desktop from browser. It looks very Photoshop CS2-ish to me, and in the very beginning it looked identical, iirc. I don’t believe it’s some genius (graphic-terms) project, but just a genius remote-desktop implementation. Hence it works well in the browser. What do you think guys? Maybe someone who uses the project all the years noticed it’s very different and evolved over time, and is not just a PS reskin?
I don't know why you think it's relevant. All that matters is the privacy law in the local jurisdiction. Some people will be fine with it, others wont. The real question is: what's the harm?

Yes there is. They could fall out of favor. MySpace did, Yahoo did, Digg did, etc. The leadership at Google should focus on making things that users actually want instead of telling them what they should want.

I bought the Macbook second hand in 2013 and went into the Apple Store in 2017 when the kernel first panicked. It was a very close cut-off on the "vintage" designation, but I think that's besides the point. If there is a inherent flaw in a computer that can manifest much later on, the company should replace it or offer some sort of compensation. Otherwise, any company can retire a product and escape all responsibility.

If you think that's being unreasonable, just search 2012 Macbook Retina kernel panic and you'll see hundreds of threads from 2021 and onward about the issue. Those people paid for a product with a defect that manifested decades later and are now left to hang dry.
There were/are a couple of aerospace surplus shops in the area. Apex and Norton are the ones I'm familiar with. The supply comes from the SoCal aerospace industrial base and a lot of the demand is indeed for movie props. It's a fortuitous pairing - the prop rental business seems to be keeping them going to some extent whereas a lot of industrial surplus businesses in other parts of the country seem to be struggling these days.
> it needs to be nationalized.

I'm not sure trading three owners for one public one is the right direction to go, particularly since there are few limits to the number of providers that could be operating in this space.

The article points this out, too, that it's incredibly expensive and difficult to start a new network from the ground up. This sounds like the thing you actually want to fix.
> assistance with breaking down tasks and setting priorities paired with frequent deadlines

Pretty much what I am arguing for.

Deadlines have to matter.

> someone with ADHD might spend a week working on some random detail that doesn't matter, because they think it's important.

No one is like "oh, thanks, it was just a matter of working on this thing, my bad, I lost track of time". It's a totally arduous process to abandon this task you are enjoying and drag yourself kicking and screaming to work on what you should be working on...which will be pain inducing. You need a way to get through this pain.
On climate change, it already did work once with the hole in the ozone layer.

People ask why they don't hear about it anymore -- oh, it's because we listened and banned CFCs and fixed the hole.
It kinda makes sense, doesn't it? What are the largest convolutions you've heard of -- 11 x 11 pixels? Not much more than that, surely? So how much can one part of the image influence another part 1000 pixels away? But I am not an expert in any of this, so an expert's opinion would be welcome.
Haha, yeah.

But the story I tell is of the evolution of the tradition we have come to denote with words like "Americana" and "Appalachian traditional" into a crypto-anarchist sentiment, from Carter Family -=> Bill Monroe -=> Jerry Garcia -=> John Perry Barlow -=> The WELL -=> EFF / archive.org / hashcash / bitcoin / ethereum.

My assertion is that it's no coincidence that the places on the internet where Grateful Dead tape sharing (which was a proto metadata aggregation) thrived have been the same places where cryptological innovation (ie, applying assymetric cyrpto to higher level metaphors than just signing and access control, including but not limited to blockchain tech). Bluegrass (and the various musical movements that have surrounded it) has deep in its DNA a drive to be open source and facilitate sharing and learning of a corpus.

I'm honing in on turning it into a talk series; here's an early example.

Security/insurance paradox: when you do some jobs perfectly, it feels like you're doing nothing. Sadly, the only (ethical) way to counter such narrative is to spend a good amount of your time making reports showing how well everything is working and how it's not something you can just operate autonomously without disaster (to answer the inevitable "well the job is done, what are we paying you for?)
Out of curiosity, what was the argument against it?

The big tests that matter are always worth the wait. Making sure people don't screw it up by changing things mid-test can be difficult. Replacing the "most likely to be successful" with "most representative of potential rollout group" mindset of stakeholders isn't easy either.

Then you have people that try to get greedy. On more than one occasion I have designed a test where two variables change, results are great, rollout projections are great, the stakeholder attempts to do the rollout without changing the variable that creates incremental expense, and the rollout does not meet projections. Then they reluctantly do what they were supposed to do in the first place and everything is fine.
The IRS is piloting directfile.irs.gov this year, if you live in CA you can use it.
I was confused by this mentor idea when I was younger. There are certainly cases where someone who is knowledgeable and well established sees a younger person with promise and actively guides their development. However, some if these relationships can be where the more experienced person just makes the makes available - with a lunch or coffee to just field questions.
In my case I remember thinking I wanted a mentor but did not feel I had that. It was only years later that I realised that I had spent tons of time with some people I really respected. During those times I absorbed massive amounts of their experience. I did not realise until years later how privileged my time with them had been. They were truly mentors but were never formal ones.

So in your case I would look around and see if there are any people you admire or at least think they are very skilful. Ask them to have a coffee and ask about what they do and what they find exciting and challenging about that. Do that with 20 different people and you may find one you want to spend more time with. If you look at each of the professors in your school and look at what research they are engaged in - that can make a great topic of initial conversation.

A suggestion - if you don’t find your classes interesting ask for permission to sit in on Graduate seminars or take a graduate level class- if you can’t take it for credit see if you can get permission to audit if you find the topic interesting - you may find more interesting people that way.

Don’t be afraid to meet interesting people outside your area of focus. Again talking to professors about their areas of research - even in business, art , music, history, anthropology etc. is worth a coffee. You may find people you click with who have no technical skills whatsoever- that makes for a much richer life.
I made a similar comment a few weeks ago on another post about another site shutting down. It’s so sad how the internet has less and less “independent” sites and instead more people and organizations are just relying on the big names (YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon, Shopify, Reddit, etc).

Creating and hosting a website has never been easier and cheaper. Yet for some reason the big companies are dominating more and more. It could be my perception because I was just a kid back then, but there seemed to be more independent sites in the 2000s than now, despite then being harder and more expensive to host a site. It doesn’t make sense to me.
I'd add one more point: Rye is a personal project by Armin Ronacher, known for Flask and a couple more projects in the Python ecosystem.
This is incredible. The reduction in latency has a profound effect in terms of the way I interact with this type of tool. The speed benefit is more than just more image generation. The speed here helps me easily keep the same train of thought moving along as I try different things.
