This is going to be a huge pain for the 600 groups that this affects (few of which are open source projects - this is NOT the part of Open Collective that handles open source).

The key thing to understand here is what a "fiscal sponsor" is in the US charitable world.

If you want to accept charitable donations from people in the US you really need special tax status with the IRS. This involves a lot of bureaucracy and paperwork.

Or... you can find an existing 501(c)(3) that is willing to be your "fiscal sponsor". They handle the IRS paperwork and do things like provide a bank account for the donations to go into and make sure you are behaving correctly and legally.

They will generally do this for you because your cause matches with their mission - plus they usually get a small portion of your donations to help cover their costs (lots of accounting and legal work).

Once you've set that relationship up everything becomes massively easier for you... unless your fiscal sponsor dissolves itself, at which point you have to unwind that relationship and kick up a new one with someone else!

I learned about this because the Python Software Foundation occasionally acts as a fiscal sponsor.
The second patient to be cured this way was from London.
How does a complete beginner who doesn’t know how to fly get into flight simulators and VATSIM?

Any tips?
1) What are the mac system requirements? Does it need a specific OS version?

2) If you're privacy first, many would feel a lot more comfortable if this was released as an app in the app store so it will be sandboxed. This is important because it's not open source so we have no idea what is happening in the background. Alternatively open source it, which many here have requested.
When I worked at a merchant bank in London in the 90s there was a very good cafeteria with great food that was not free, but it was so subsidised that it might as well be.
I see, I guess I should have specified that I was talking more about email services like Fastmail, where you are just paying for email and if you break the TOS you probably were doing something absolutely bone-headed, and if not then you can just move your domain easily and take your email backups to another provider. Another example would be using some GUI or CLI utility and any generic S3 service to backup data, where you can move the backup to any S3 service you want to. I think that's a reasonable medium between losing everything because you put all your eggs in one basket with Google or with your HomeLab. Family can pretty easily pickup a Fastmail account and understand how to work it, and the same with a simple backup program on each computer plus S3 storage. I feel like this is the "golden path" through the middle of today's SaaS economy without having to train a replacement from your family like you're running an IT dept.

tl;dr: Everyone keeps saying Google/Facebook/etc but I am talking about hosting your services with individual corps, not "all eggs in one basket" style.
Consider the question unsettled. Or at the very least unsettling.
I think some franchisees will sell day-old loaves for fifty cents. Some gen-x YouTuber was using it as a cheap food source in college back in the day.
Surely there is some level at which it will reduce unemployment. So really it’s just an argument as to what the right level is.

Serious question, what if they just ignore the Forum and do it anyways?
At this point I'm expecting a kind of retro vibe. Big chunky decks either beige or gray....
This is really great! Maybe I'll incorporate this into my own software (scratchdata/scratchdb)

Question: it looks like you wrote the parser by hand. How did you decide that that was the right approach? I myself am new to parsers and am working on implementing the PostgREST syntax in go using PEG to translate to Clickhouse, which is to say, a similar mission as this project. Would love to learn how you approached this problem!
I don’t know if Andrew is still answering, but how does it work with calculations for reentry?

It’s basically ballistic downward, how do you make sure you won’t hit anything on your way down over many layers?
Using this language on top won’t solve that though, it still compiles into sql, warts and all.
Intel 4 and 3 are transitional processes, but 75% or customers opt for 18A, that’s why they pushed for it and it may appear in volume sooner than older nodes, as the article noted:

Capacity for the Intel 4 and Intel 3 processes doesn't build as quickly as 20A/18A, but that isn't surprising — the majority of the company's wins for its third-party foundry business have been with the 18A node, which Intel says is according to plan

18A process is planned to be ready in the second half of this year, and Intel is sticking to it. 18A chips (Intel processors and GPUs) will appear next year
Don't forget, they also had to pass another remedial bill to add exemptions later!

> What strategies did you use?

I see no other strategies that could possibly work. All it takes is one crawler to get through or ignore your defenses and your work has been used to help train a model. At that point, the horse is out of the barn. Any partial defense seems the same as no defense to me on this point.

But it depends on what you're trying to protect. My concern isn't actually that my content may get reproduced through an LLM. I just don't want any of my work to be used to develop or improve these models, period.
Better to have picked up Peripheral.
> I think what you’re doing with Fil-C is cool, but I wouldn’t call a 200x slowdown a “small change.”

If you're bringing up the 200x, then you don't get what's going on.

It's extremely useful right now to have a compiler that's substantially correct so I don't have to deal with miscompiles as I grow the corpus.

Once I have a large enough corpus of tests, then I'll start optimizing. Writing compiler optimizations incrementally on top of a totally reliable compiler is just sensible engineering practice.

So, if you think that 200x is meaningful, then it's because you don't know how language/compiler development works, you haven't read my manifesto, and you have no idea where the 200x is coming from (hint: almost all optimizations are turned off for now so I have a reliable compiler to grow a corpus with).

> One of the interesting things that Rust has demonstrated is that you don’t have to choose between performance and safety and, in fact, that safety improvements in languages can actually result in faster programs (e.g. due to improved alias analysis). New technology/sexiness advantage aside, I think this is a significant driver of adoption.

You have to rewrite your code to use Rust. You don't have to rewrite your code to use Fil-C. So, Rust costs more, period. And it costs more in exactly the kind of way that cannot be fixed. Fil-C's perf can be fixed. The fact that Rust requires rewriting your code cannot be fixed.

We can worry about making Fil-C fast once there's a corpus of stuff that runs on it. Until then, saying speed is a shortcoming of Fil-C is an utterly disingenuous argument. I can't take you seriously if you're making that argument.

That's how you do propaganda properly.

You pick on a legitimate issue and discreetly add something that pushes your agenda.
void linux which opted for runit over systemd has bluetooth configurable via bluetoothctl or blueman-applet so seems this is a thing. That said bluetooth is kind of flaky.

You may get a better result with a device that has a usb dongle. Logitech models reportedly work. The Corsair unit I just bought works well for instance.

Leitner works despite having crap audio over usb.
Oh wow -- OK, so then it's pretty easy to imagine that suddenly McDonald's, Taco Bell, Starbucks -- they all start installing little miniature baking ovens in the corner and adding a "fresh-baked bread roll" at the very bottom of the menu.

If that's all it takes to avoid paying minimum wage?
The job of a business owner is to make money for their business. I don’t see anything wrong with that.

The job of a governor is NOT to take bribes in exchange for exclusions in a law. Government is meant to be a check on business that represents the common interest, so the fault lies squarely in that department.
An important question before I read something that long (or anything, really): Who is Bartosz Ciechanowski?
Maybe some TOS style blinkenlights…
Yeah, we didn't copy that one over precisely because it was kind of a blocker to introducing replacements for outdated design.

But I think it can be weaseled into that principle. Thanks!
No one does that. Except perhaps the PR and legal departments of the Hoover company.

Here in Norway they usually give it to a nearby nursing home, assuming it's in good shape for human consumption.

Bing Chat is different. It can pull directly from internet sources, including article previews.
I see devs that are paid a fortune and they use these silly 20 or 24 inch monitors and I don't understand it. A large 4K monitor is a very cheap and really increases productivity. Give them 3 ffs.

Meanwhile, there is an accountant somewhere that thinks he's a genius for keeping the hardware budget in check.
Yes, back in the day I saw people doing this with Maple, glad there's open source options now. There's a cool library (also using Sympy) to do this kind of thing in robotics and computer vision applications, symforce https://github.com/symforce-org/symforce
This really just sounds absurd. How can ternary possibly encode enough information?

Anyone willing to explain it like I’m a Django developer who watched half a karpathy video?
If you critically examine the source that provided you this number and follow the rabbit hole, you will probably learn that it is wildly pessimistic AND not telling you what you think it’s telling you. E.g. these estimates often include estimated casualties from sectarian violence that was merely uncorked by the Iraq war. You are clearly not taking pains to prevent the casual reader from assuming that 600k (already a specious number) were all directly killed at the hands of US soldiers.
Also makes sense to start the year when the weather start to get warmer, rather than the middle of winter

Currently I have 108 in Inoreader, but there's about 20 that need to be taken out or fixed because they're dead/erroring out. Of those, I only check about 10 semi-regularly.

I need to go through and prune the others and organize them by topic. I'll soon add in feeds for various YouTube channels I want to keep updated on without checking the unreliable and tedious Subscriptions feed on YouTube.

The main feeds I've been checking over past months are related to publishing and self publishing, software development, services I like, games I'm interested in, VR developments, and creators I enjoy.
> I believe any minimum wage policies are terrible

Any? You barely have to peruse a history book to see countless examples of exploitative labor processes.
Another thing that makes Sacred Harp sound "weird" is that it eschews traditional voice-leading rules and therefore has no prohibitions on parallel fifths, fourths, or octaves. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voice_leading#Common-practice_...
One limitation is that the shapes are really only useful for singing, not for instrumental music. They also would not be meaningful for music that switches keys or that isn't tonal (i.e. isn't in a particular key at all). So they are a very good fit for what you might think of as "church music" (at least written before the 20th century), but for other settings they would be either meaningless or a hindrance.

That's one reason shape notation never caught on; another reason is that the notation was introduced by publishers of American sacred music and not by, say, music conservatories.
How would you use this in something like PyTorch? There’s no ternary data type.
It looks a lot like Kusto query language. Here is a kusto query:

StormEvents

and DamageCrops > 0
| summarize EventCount = count() by bin(StartTime, 7d)

edit... yes it indeed was inspired by Kusto as they mention on the github Readme https://github.com/runreveal/pql

Fossil fuels aren't 100% of GHG emissions. It's a large percentage, yes, but not 100%. So sure, you've cut 90% or whatever, but not 100%. You're still probably using virgin plastics somewhere, still making concrete, still making asphalt, still making steel, still need refrigerants, etc.

most of the non-dark-matter non-dark-energy mass of the universe finds itself in conditions that prevent the existence of water: black holes, degenerate-matter stars, conventional plasma stars, things like that. almost all of the rest is hydrogen and helium, so water exists there in the same sense that uranium exists here. but, although almost all of the universe is cold enough to freeze hydrogen, its vapor pressure is high enough at the cbr that most of it is vapor, so basically none of that is solid. solid objects do have a substantial amount of water in them, although if our solar system is typical, many of them don't

but sure, if it turns out that there are electron-degenerate-gas vortex intelligences on the surface of white-dwarf stars, they could very likely work out some way to launch robotic probes out of the star into places where water could exist, so that they could measure its triple point. and the folks on 𐍨𐍓𐍰𐍚𐍠 use trace amounts of water in their biology (it's a reasonably powerful base) and have isolated it in liquid form in their cryogenic laboratories. it's accessible in a way that the artifact kilogram and artifact meter and the circumference of the earth aren't

Some irony here in Apple (wealthiest corporation in history and also a gigantic tech company) being involved in adapting the quintessential cyberpunk novel considering the themes the cyberpunk genre revolve around.

But I guess you could say the irony is perhaps very fitting. Cyberpunk indeed
I've never used VATSIM, but I do enjoy watching streams of the yearly "Cross The Pond" event, where thousands of pilots fly across the Atlantic on VATSIM[1].

I have used PilotEdge quite a bit though, and having virtual ATC really adds a lot to the experience of flightsimming–it forces me to plan my flights in detail, taking into account all the air spaces, writing down frequencies ahead of time, checking weather, briefing the various phases ahead of time.

I think there's also something interesting and different about VATSIM and PilotEdge, in that they don't really care what game you're using (as long as it's supported by their network), but all the players are still in the same world--which is a close digital twin to the real world, at least in all the respects that aviation cares about. It's like if WoW players and EverQuest players were in the same world and could interact with one another. Are there any other "games" or layers over games that do that sort of thing?

BTW, PilotEdge does offer a 5 hour free trial, and they have an excellent tutorial series, the Communication and Airspace Training (CAT) program[2] which starts out easy (on the first flight you don't even have to talk to a controller) and gently progresses though increasingly complex situations: Non-towered to Non-towered then non-towered to class D, then class D to class D, until by the end you're flying in and out of class B. On each flight you get a pass/no-pass. And they have a similar series for IFR, the I-ratings. Every rating has a nice writeup and youtube video.

Their site seems to be broken. That particular story gets stuck showing some repeating animated thingy that is probably supposed to be a loading indicator. The console shows a bunch of errors, including an error trying to load some JavaScript that I suspect is vital for loading the story.

Same thing on their home page. Subdomains seem fine, e.g., shop.nationalreview.com works, so at least you can buy merchandise while waiting for the story to load. :-)

This was with Safari, Firefox, and Chrome.
Ok, I admit I probably read this a long time ago and didn't bother to ever check as I never see anything very advanced in HTML used in Javadocs...

It is in theory.

But in practice, a legislative body may or may not deliberate. And that deliberation may or may not include reasons for some of the parts of the legislation. (And it virtually never includes deliberation on a small clause like this.)

But at the end of the day, nothing has to be deliberated on. It's just a majority vote at the end of the day.
Hunting is a sport and there is some element of sportsmanship reflected by the laws.

Although with spotlighting in particular I am pretty sure it's because the man doesnt want you shooting guns in the dark. When you light it up you ruin your own night vision and cannot see your backstop.
What does that mean?

Everyday objects don't work like that. Saying ice cubes are cold is roughly equivalent to saying that they radiate less heat than the objects around them. If they radiated at "high intensity" then they wouldn't be cold anymore.

"A cold object that radiates heat at high intensity" is a contradiction.
There was opposition to building interfaces for toy drivers and the last thread had suggestions at a rust filesystem interface rebuffed by saying they should try rewrite the ext2 driver in rust to prove that it was usable for real filesystems rather than toy ones. I'd guess similar thought processes fuelled this decision.
While I want to be really excited about this, I am already terrified they'll give it a 'Foundation' treatment. E.g. take a great book, and then sort of re-write it while re-using some names and elements from the original. Or the Sho-Gun treatment, where you take another great book, and turn it into visually beautiful, but soulless pseudo-reproduction of the book that lacks exactly the depth that made the book great.

So please Apple, give it a Lord of the Rings treatment. Or even Hobbit. Pretty please!

Counterfeiting, Coin Clipping and the Great Recoinage of 1696
It's annoyingly one of those things that once you understand, you can't see how you didn't understand it before. e.g. the tensor algebra (aka free algebra) over a vector space is "just" the dumbest possible multiplication: if i and j are basis vectors, then i*j = i⊗j. No further simplification possible. j*i*i*j = j⊗i⊗i⊗j, etc. with associativity and distributivity and linearity: (5i+3j)*k = 5i⊗k + 3j⊗k, etc.

Then, if you have a dot product, a Clifford algebra is "just" the tensor algebra with a single simple extra reduction rule: For a vector v, v*v = v⋅v. So now e.g. `kjiijl = kj(i⋅i)jl = kjjl = k(j⋅j)l = kl = k⊗l`, which can't be reduced further.

The real magic is that it turns out you can prove[0] that ij=-ji for two basis vectors i,j, so e.g. (ij)^2 = ijij = -ijji = -ii = -1. So `ij` is a square root of -1, as is `ik` and `jk` (but they're different square roots of -1), and you get things like complex numbers or quaternions for free, and suddenly a ton of geometry appears (with `ij` corresponding to a chunk of plane in the same way a basis vector `i` is a chunk of line/arrow. `ijk` becomes a chunk of volume. etc.).

But it's all "just" the dumbest possible multiplication plus v*v = v⋅v.

[0] Proof: (i+j)^2 = i^2+ij+ji+j^2 = 1+ij+ji+1 = 2+ij+ji. But also (i+j)^2 = (i+j)⋅(i+j) = i⋅(i+j) + j⋅(i+j) = 2. So 2 = 2+ij+ji, so ij=-ji.
