On the one hand, I understand that the lack of women in tech is a complicated affair that probably has to do with biology, systems in place, culture, misconceptions, etc. I'm not someone who's going to blame the bro culture for repelling women in tech. I think it's far more complicated.

On the other hand, one reason why I hate working in tech is because of the lack of women. Every tech city you go is a sausage fest and dating is exponentially harder unless you're the top 10% in attractiveness due to the gender imbalance. I think this imbalance breeds creepy behavior. Part of it is the lack of social awareness from not having women around to learn from and the other part of it is that men who work in tech have a higher tendency of socially awkward behaviors.

Lastly, I've observed that of the few women who do work in tech, a higher proportion of them (vs general public) are idealists. Take this observation however you want.

If I could snap my finger and change things, I'd love to have a 50/50 gender balance in tech.
Yeah they're trying to walk a tightrope between groups who want the AI to be less racist and more racist, and neither side will ever be happy.

Caveat: Only when the lid is closed.
I don't think it's a given that we shouldn't keep using that codec. For example, maybe the improvement is due to an open source hacker working in their spare time to make the world a better place. Do we tell them their contribution isn't welcome until it meets the community's benchmark for equity?

Your same argument can also be used to degrade the performance for all other groups, so that group X isn't unfairly disadvantaged. Or, it can even be used to argue that the performance for other groups should be degraded to be even worse than group X, to compensate for other factors that disadvantage group X.

This is argumentum ad absurdum, but it goes to show that the issue isn't as black and white as you seem to think it is.

How does VoiceMod achieve real time audio conversion with such low CPU?
I've taken a look at all the available open source models for voice conversion and my cpu is like 55%, whereas VoiceMod is using just 8-10%.

Anyone have any clue how they may have achieved this?

Shouldn’t the US government have arbitrary powers to break/nullify agreements that are harmful to us, because its taxpayer money.
No, what you call “omniscient debugging” is what Time Machine does and has always done. Instant temporal random access, call stacks over time with click to seek, variable graphing over time, etc. Given that is almost certainly where “time-travel debugging” came from, that seems more like people copying it poorly and watering down the phrase.

Unless you mean something really narrow like clicking a variable and it showing you every previous value of it in one screen? I am not sure if it has that built-in. But really that is just visualization layer stuff. The recorded log has everything you need to reconstruct every past state, so you can get anything missing from the built-ins by just querying the log directly.

According to https://www.plansponsor.com/kodak-outsources-management-of-o... it's $6.5 billion. But pension fund management is mandated by regulation. Google "cash on hand" is https://companiesmarketcap.com/alphabet-google/cash-on-hand/ $111 billion.

The question I am having trouble parsing is who makes the decision to become a pension fund at Google given their historical focus has been on technology. It's a significant pivot.

At a small closely held firm I can see the owners deciding to use the corporation as a vehicle for managing retirement funds (or inter-generational wealth transfer) but Google has a much more diverse base of owners with divergent interests.

I hate that these guys have to justify using jQuery. Too many of you have been seduced by all these bullshit javascript stacks that just add a seemingly infinite amount of complexity to something that is already almost too complicated.
I guess “React makes sense for more complex UIs” is not hard-and-fast rule. jQuery, apparently, is more than enough for clean working frontend code.

Are there any (democratic) countries where the courts run efficiently?

I just waited in jail for 10 years in the USA for trial while the lawyers just got a series of continuances and then the prosecution dropped the case. So, the USA is definitely not exempt. I've had civil litigation go on for a decade in the USA too, which I don't think is uncommon. Sometimes you'll go around to an appellate court multiple times which adds, say, two years each time.

If you look at death penalty cases in the USA it can take more than 20 years to exhaust all the appellate courts.
It's be really cool if there were some giant high power potentiometer connected directly from the batter to the motors in an EV. Just smash the pedal, see a blast of plasma and you take off. Just like slot cars. I can't see a single downside to this :p

involved a literal emulator. However, none involved an emulator as we would understand the concept (as opposed to "interoperability" more generally). There was also the matter of the PC clones, where IBM's only litigation was against those who literally copied the BIOS, as opposed to those who made compatible hardware without IBM's permission

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_PC_compatible

although conceivably IBM was concerned about antitrust issues there in choosing not to litigate over the non-BIOS-copying clones.

As other commenters pointed out, there are court decisions in favor of emulators in the post-DMCA environment (Connectix and Bleem), where DMCA claims were not raised at all in those specific cases.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emulator#Legal_issues

These two cases applied pre-DMCA copyright law to the question of the legality of the emulation, but weren't actually pre-DMCA chronologically. I'll take that as a very helpful correction to the way I phrased the point.

If you feel the contract is reasonable and are honor-bound to keep it, that's one thing, but it sounds like you disagree with their demands and are just desperate for cash. In that scenario, does something like doordash fit the bill (in my tests in the Bay, with a bit of planning it's $30-$40/hr post-tax and depreciation, $40-$50 revenue, the latter of which is more relevant if you're trying to escape a situation)? A few 80-hour weeks might be unpleasant, but it's just a few weeks to give you the buffer to let you escape from your current situation.
There is a separate suit seeking $500M. This one is about the CEO and senior management severance.
Their marginal cost for you using otherwise-unutilized capacity is near zero; probably just power really. So if it’s a choice between getting $0 and $0.1 for a $1/hr instance, that’s an easy choice.

You just have to be sure to make the spot stuff juuust unreliable enough that people can’t run their full workloads on it all the time.

Price and convenience. I don't like Amazon Firestick or Google Stick. Apple is nice. Also I can add Pi-Hole and limit a lot of the Roku data mining that happens.
This seems extremely ripe for abuse by scammers, I wonder what a legitimate use case might be?
I believe, this 2 stage/project system was how DeCSS for DVDs worked? Someone cracked it and posted the code (for interop, in EU), which could then be picked up/used by other projects as it was 'public knowledge' or some such and didn't expose them to legal risk ?
If you go fast enough sideways, the lander goes off screen and you can fall past the ground. Then you can flip for unlimited reward. Unfortunately, you can't then crash to see a final score!

True. And it's scaling down properties are much better than any other network I've played with (not an expert). I could run MNIST benchmark on a ESP32 board.

OnlyOffice works better than LibreOffice, which is a native app.

Photopea works better than GIMP, which is a native app.

These devs clearly know what they're doing.

It would be a better world if we had more Photopeas and less Enriques
I'm not sure if I tried that specific model or not, but I did try the beefiest 3Ms that were available and that others were recommending for the same issue back in 2020, and no they don't really work for this problem. They would probably work if I was already completely unaware of the noises, but then I probably wouldn't need them anyway and they wouldn't be an appropriate solution. Also they were comically large and introduced the anxiety that people were constantly looking at them.
As someone who’s planning to start a TSlim, this is a bit worrying. Admittedly even an average value of 7mmol would be an improvement over where I am, but I’ve certainly heard the lack of aggressiveness as an issue with the controlIQ system (if that’s what your daughter is using).
Dell Inspiron with 4k Screen? I had a work provided one and I kept forgetting it was a touch screen. The screen was nice, but I never found a use for the touch part. A pen (Microsoft Surface laptops) is a better idea. as you can keep the same UI.

Careful, §1201(a)(1) (to which the exemption rulemaking process applies) was delayed, but §1201(a)(2) and §1201(b) (which don't have the exemption rulemaking attached) were not delayed this way. (a)(1) is an "acts" provision while (a)(2) and (b) are "tools" provisions.
I was confused with this as well and the documentation is not always clear about it.

Nftables and the netfilter project is the firewall implementation in Linux.

The legacy and beloved iptables format is fully replaced nowadays by nftables. You don't have to learn anything new because the iptables command line is just a compatibility layer on top of nftables with full compatibility. When you insert iptables rules, they get translated to nftables seamlessly. This has been the default on all major distros for years.

Converting to nftables has a few neat advantages such as much improved set/map and verdict tables support, unified IPv4, IPv6 and bridge rules, etc. But you don't have to. Everything old still works.

Flow tables is an optional feature of netfilter, I think originally meant to interface with hardware NAT accelerators in cheap routers, but it also has a pure software default implementation that can speed things up in some cases. That's what is being discussed in this article.

You use nftables to define and hook into flow tables. They work together, not against each other.
That helps explain Paris drivers :D

And what's up with the "Consent is not a condition of purchase" – what am I purchasing? Will I still get a text if I don't consent?

Update: Just saw the pricing page – why is this only visible when clicking the "profile" icon? It's very easy to miss. But at least there seems to be a business model. $1 per notification is extremely pricey though, in my opinion.
It does, just not the same workflow you use on the mac. I use my iPad Air, for drawing, writing and it's great. But can't imagine having something like Swinsian, Audacity, or Calibre on it without heavily modifying their UIs.
It is not about complex UI per se, it is about complex state. With jQuery, the State is duplicated in the DOM instead of mirrored and is very hard to keep in sync.
DC power demand is anything but constant. This is getting worse with ML clusters. There's an entire cottage industry focused on optimizing power utilization. There are huge incentives for DC operators who can guarantee consistent high power utilization.
I'm confused about what you mean by this. There's nothing about Flutter's API that encourages less nesting, In fact, it's the exact opposite. Plenty of layout and styling that takes a number of nested widgets in Flutter can be achieved using a single div in React.
I don’t know why you’re being downvoted, environmental triggers eg from pollution are linked to autoimmune conditions. Any kind of excessive (oxidative) stress would increase the chances of it for that matter.
Talking with adults is highly engaging and interactive for children.

The same words and phrases get repeated and iterated over in varying orders and stresses in association with immediate touchable physical objects and executable actions.

A week of that would test higher for word|association retention than would a week of watching video with { words, words, words } streaming by non stop.

Yes, I do understand that there are videos and shows that are specifically designed to engage and teach young viewers: Playschool, Sesame Street etc .. but these require far more craft than goes into the vast sea of near AI generated pap that streams these days.
The problem with slices in C being added in stdlib would be that they really are a generic data type. It would be similar to atomic types. While C++ could just add std::atomic<T>, C needed to add a special construct: _Atomic(T).

C++ already has a slice type. It’s called std::span<T>. Porting it to C would probably require something similar to atomics. At which point I guess you may just as well get on with it and switch to C++.
Nintendo gave up on doing what was "morally correct" ages ago. That doesn't make anyone else's moral failing acceptable, but comparatively Nintendo's sins are far greater and they've never faced consequences that came remotely close to what they're putting Gary Bowser through.

"Better" is a very strong word to use without any qualifiers – better at what exactly?

In functional programming everything is predictable:

input -> [some function] -> output

Where in OO things are:

input -> [some function + some hard to reason about state] -> output

In OO functions tend to be "impure" because you typically have state which can always do something you don't expect. This becomes even more problematic when you add parallelism to the mix because now state can mutate in ways that that is very hard to reason about.

With functional programming if something unexpected happens then you know that it's the function's logic rather than having to try to understand how some unexpected state is causing a function to do something you didn't expect. For this reason functional logic much easier to test and verify because the surface area for unexpected results is dramatically reduced.

That said, functional programming is much less intuitive I think. We tend to naturally reason about the world as a collection of objects with state and actions, and when an action is performed state mutates.

Functional programming requires you get rid of the idea of objects which have mutable state and instead think about the world as a collection of processes which given stateT1, spit out stateT2.

I've noticed people from a math background find the purity of functional programming very appealing. Personally I tend to share that bias, but I still recognise that functional programming isn't the best paradigm for most applications.

If you're building a simple API or app for example, then I think the most important thing is writing code that's easy to comprehend. If the domain is simple then the benefits of functional programming are relatively slim. It's really only when you're dealing with complex state and parallelism that functional programming really starts to have major benefits in my eyes. I think your observation that functional programming being harder to read is 100% correct, and this is its main trade off in my view.

It really is a kind of existential dread I get when having to contend with this. Thankfully it's rare now that I don't have a job in an office or at all, but when I did, I'd end up with the same solution; I had to leave the office, or ironically, take a breather in the kitchen and hope they were done their meal when I got back.

It consumed my consciousness in a way that literally dropped my productivity to near zero, and I couldn't catch up, and got fired. Thankfully my boss didn't do a damn thing except scold me for being slow, otherwise I'd still be making PDF editing software.

I'd just go to a cafe down the street for a few hours, which reflected poorly on me, but I had no choice. Not only was the coffee laughably better than the shit in the office, but my ability to focus there vs the office was like night and day.
articles exist in context of the site they are on and the agenda they are pushing.
> My thought was when a keyboard/mouse were connected it would be in macOS mode, with a normal desktop, windows, and the dock. Without these input devices, it would switch to touch mode, forcing all the apps to full screen (or now Stage Manager as an option) and forcing LaunchPad in place is the normal desktop/dock. Developers would be instructed to use larger touch-friendly UI elements for full screen mode, which would be used in the touch mode.

AKA Windows 8.

That's how you got the worst of both worlds. First thermal issues. Then a whole slew of conditional statements. And one of the things I like about desktop apps is having multiple windows because you don't have to make everything big for touch interaction.
