We know it happened because of leaks that would get you thrown into prison now, and no one in charge was held accountable. So not sure what you’re trying to get at there.

As for your second point, your last statement is what matters. The us has engaged in more foreign military actions than any other nation since WW2. Who cares if they mask the brutality behind terms like precision strikes and collateral damage. We do terrible things and we do them frequently, usually for no benefit to anyone other than a select few. Everything you said is just trying to rationalize the fact we are the most aggressive country on the earth.
My sister is staying in a hotel and all the keycards stopped working.
Has anybody written this up? I think it could be interesting to see how things are going.
That looks like a pretty cool game! Were you inspired by Crypt of the Necrodancer? That's one of my favorite games. I was thinking about whether an NES (or another older console) would have been able to handle a game with those mechanics if they had been invented back then (and if so, to what extent), and it looks like you're proving it possible.
I don't remember looking at Glide, although it looks really nice & full-featured. I'll have to play around with it sometime. I do remember trying out https://www.npmjs.com/package/@deephaven/grid.

One pivotal feature that is difficult to map onto 3P tools is our data table UI, which is a separate scrollable grid that floats on top of the main sheet. That, combined with the complexity of formula selection, inserting buttons into cells (header dropdowns, filter, sort), led us to decide that rolling our own solution for full control was the right choice.

Wayland is called Vyaleniy in Russian IT circles, which means "dried like beef jerky" and generally is disliked. 4chan calls it Gayland. Yeah, I know.
In the USA, writing a letter to your elected representative (of the appropriate government level, so Senator or Representative for federal, etc) can often eventually get satisfaction, because the government bureaucrats never ignore a letter from them, because it gets their boss yelled at.
That's wild, didn't know that. Is anything doable about car tires short of not driving a car? Are people perhaps looking into better materials for this problem?
It's article 22 (https://gdpr-info.eu/art-22-gdpr/) "The data subject shall have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning him or her or similarly significantly affects him or her." - with the emphasis on solely, and it does have certain caveats which perhaps maybe might make it permissible.

Like, this restricts automatic refusal of service due to automated profiling, but doesn't restrict automatic acceptance of service due to automated profiling, and it doesn't restrict automatic recommendation to refuse service which then is rapidly 'reviewed' by a human.
Also even if the right geography exists for walking, does the climate locally support it?

Under 50 outside, most folks just nope out, same with over 80 outside.

Heck, most people cannot walk three miles without breaking some sort of sweat in a temperate climate, so for work, you need to be presentable.

Also a three mile distance "as the bird flies" may be double that as the person walks or drives.
I've seen dozens of memes using the same gag but with a popular song or catch phrase.
It's really unfortunate for others that there are still that many hurdles.

No one here said that GNOME shouldn't be appreciated. Just because I said GNOME is unusable for me personally doesn't mean I can't appreciate it.

I have tried GNOME before, thanks for your assumption, so I know for a fact it's less customisable than Plasma. But less customisation doesn't equal less value anyways, so I don't even know what your point is.
The Bay Area's pollution is very low compared to most other cities in the world. People from those cities wish that their pollution primarily came from car tires.
One of the largest food store chains in Sweden had their entire card payment go down because someone forgot to handle leap years!
Just curious, why did you use "80k" as a figure for car prices? That's very deep into luxury car prices. You can easily get a fully electric 2023+ model car used with less than 10k miles for $25k, and new ones in the 30s.
From Seattle move in a straight line due East. What country will you hit?
I'm using KDE on Debian / Wayland because I was forced to [0]. I moved to it from from Gnome, which I was forced to use for similar reasons.

I can't believe it, but I badly miss the "Super" (Windows logo) button on KDE not behaving the same was as Gnome. On KDE Ctrl-F9 does the same thing, but after using Gnome that function became "the" way I flipped between hidden Windows. The "Super" button is right place for it, Ctrl-F9 is far too fiddly. The task bar I was brought up in in my Windows / Mac days is just hopeless for task switching in comparison. The rest of KDE (particularly it's configurability) is better than Gnome, of course.

Except for bugs. KDE has so many UI glitches and bugs compared to Gnome. It drives me nuts. I might give Plasma 6 a go, but if the bug situation hasn't improved I will be moving onto something else. These bugs have nothing to do with Wayland per se.

[0] I have a Thinkpad X1 extreme gen 2. A beautiful laptop on paper also in person because it's 4K OLED screen, but I'd never have another one. Charging from the USB-C connector is a lottery - but can be made to work with enough reinsertions. The 4K screen is scratched by the keyboard because the keys touch when closed. On the gen 2 they pushed the external video path through the Nvidia card. You can get an external monitor to work if you hold your head just the right way. With Debian 11 the right was to run Wayland, and only Gnome supported it well. With Debian 12, the right way is to boot using Gnomes display manager (gdm3) with Wayland, wait until the monitor sync's, then login using your KDE Wayland desktop. If for example you use Gnome as your desktop all you get is blank screens. Other combinations all fail in their own unique ways.
Tell that to those of us dogfodding COSMIC right now. ;)
What does that have to do with the US vetoing a ceasefire? It is direct evidence the government is complicit in the genocide.
Can you imagine a lawyer using ChatGPT to draft legal briefs and find relevant case histories? Well...
usually if i'm writing c instead of js, python, or golang the reason is that i want my code to run on a microcontroller. the majority of the microcontrollers i have here have 4 kibibytes of flash, which is a pretty harsh limit, but vastly more cpu power than is needed for the things i'm doing with them, so i almost always actually want to optimize for size at the cost of nearly everything else. the only thing that's more precious than flash is ram

(why don't i write assembly? well, sometimes i do, but sometimes c is good enough, and it has major advantages. size-optimizing compilers greatly expand the scope of c's applicability.)
Aren't they? Are you sure piping to 'man' can't result in arbitrary code execution?

The two things you need to be able to say you trust are your CA store, and the source of your curl -> shell.
I just purchased a new truck within the last 6 months and I was considering Ford's F-150 Lightning but ended up going with a diesel 2500 Silverado instead. The lightning boast 350 miles but it's not clear what kind of mileage I would get when pulling my camper. I also like to travel to some of the more remote parts of the US and I just don't have the confidence that it wouldn't become a pain in my butt.

As for anecdotal evidence I don't see a lot of EVs driving around in my mid sized midwest town (~200k pop). At most I notice 2-4 Teslas a week and as of today I've seen my first Rivian. If they're popular they ain't popular around here.
Not directly related to leap year, but a couple weeks ago I set up a script for testing notification behavior that used libfaketime to simulate runs at different times.

I guess this might be less-trivial if you've got a distributed multi-service architecture and perhaps also depend on APIs that aren't under your control in the first place.
Out of curiosity, do you support/have plans to support the broader set of Excel shortcuts that reference the ribbon? (Alt + <Key Sequence> shortcuts). Lots of excel power users more or less exclusively use the keyboard to navigate, and so have muscle memory for almost everything they do, including more niche operations (Insert Line Chart = Alt N N 1, or Change Column Width = Alt H O W).

Will be a very hard sell to banks/other financial services corps if you can't match that aspect of excel. (They will probably also want local files and a native app).

If you want to avoid having switch back and forth, you might try running things inside a wayland compositor under X11; for example, when I want to run waydroid I just run it in cage[0] in a window in my usual environment.

People, including me, are lazy. I could walk almost all the time, I don't.

Your usage of 'GPTx' makes me think you are conflating chatgpt and GPT4. I find chatgpt useless, so hopefully that's not what you're talking about.

None of the things you are describing happen to me, especially if you do basic trust+verify which you should be doing for Google anyways.
Sure, if we were all not easily programmed meat machines, who don't live in a world where $ = speech = programming, then we would all be equally to blame.

It's obvious that bubbles exist in retrospect, but determining whether current growth and valuations are sustainable in the present is incredibly difficult. As another poster mentioned, we are essentially talking about market timing here.

Most investors have been conditioned by many popular talking heads to immediately dismiss the idea of successful market timing - and for the most part, the talking heads are correct. For the average investor, successful market timing is nearly impossible.

However, we have many counter-examples of successful market timers over the long term. James Simons' Medallion fund has returned 50%+ CAGR over a multi-decade period and stomping the market, creating many centimillionaires and billionaires in the process.

I set out thinking, what's so different about Simons and his crew at RenTec? Why is it so difficult for their success to be replicated? Not one to easily back down from a challenge, I began working on my own algorithms to successfully hedge against market downturns and provide superior absolute and risk-adjusted returns compared to the S&P 500. While I haven't yet seen Simons-level success in live trading, since launching Grizzly Bulls (https://grizzlybulls.com) in January 2022, 6 of our 7 models have outperformed the market on an unleveraged basis:

SPX (benchmark): +7%

VIX-TA-Macro-MP Extreme: +39.98%

VIX-TA-Macro Advanced: +34.38%

VIX-TA Advanced: +12.92%

VIX Advanced: +9.91%

Vix Basic: +5.76%

TA - Mean Reversion: +15.46%

TA - Trend: +12.97%

Of course two years of outperformance also doesn't yet stand the test of time of Simons' remarkable run, but I'm confident that we've discovered alpha here.
Yes, we can easily get more decentralized that the Fediverse, and we have. Both Secure Scuttlebutt and Urbit are peer-to-peer social networking, with rather different takes on what that means. There might be more, those are the ones I'm aware of.
Dr. Young's Ideal Rectal Dilators
For me its a jittery nightmare. I can't even play a video in vlc and still have firefox scroll smoothly on another monitor. I can turn my desktop experience into a slide show if I set the refresh rate on all three monitors to 144hz. Its silly I'm looking at choosing between having a good linux desktop experience _or_ being able to use CUDA for ML/AI stuff OR having to build a second computer so I can have a gaming computer on AMD _and_ a work node on NVIDIA
Payroll software at work had a one-off planned maintenance day today, presumably to avoid worrying about any bugs.
I had this experience with 3D printing. In 2010 Google/Meta were transitioning to Mobile. It was not at all clear at the time that Mobile would turn them into multi-trillion dollar behemoths. To have bet the farm on FANG at the time would have been extreme.

Dropping money into an index fund is generally the right way of going about things. My suspicion is that those who talk about clearing N million on NVidia big bets either had enough money that they could go long with 1MM on a single stock with Y thousands or just got very lucky in their first trading experiences.

If someone gets 1/100 luck three times in a row - then they can easily get to 1-10MM portfolios from a ~10k starting point. You'd expect around 1 in one million traders to do this.
Has there been a single recorded case of malware getting around this way?
Some good advice here, and some more...controversial advice here.

After inheriting quite a few giant C++ projects over the years, there are a few obvious big wins to start with:

* Reproducible builds. The sanity you save will be your own. Pro-tip: wrap your build environment with docker (or your favorite packager) so that your tooling and dependencies become both explicit and reproducable. The sanity you save will be your own.

* Get the code to build clean with -Wall. This is for a couple of reasons. a) You'll turn up some amount of bad code/undefined behavior/bugs this way. Fix them and make the warning go away. It's ok to #pragma away some warnings once you've determined you understand what's happening and it's "ok" in your situation. But that should be rare. b) Once the build is clean, you'll get obvious warnings when YOU do something sketchy and you can fix that shit immediately. Again, the sanity you save will be your own.

* Do some early testing with something like valgrind and investigate any read/write errors it turns up. This is an easy win from a bugfix/stability point of view.

* At least initially, keep refactorings localized. If you work on a section and learn what it's doing, it's fine to clean it up and make it better, but rearchitecting the world before you have a good grasp on what's going on globally is just asking for pain and agony.
The consequence of almost all software the loss of jobs. I've personally been responsible for many many jobs disappearing with the software I've written. AI is just another form of software and if it is at all useful, and I believe that it is, then it will eliminate jobs. That should not be particularly surprising -- computers have already eliminated entire categories of jobs.

I think the subtle point is that not all humans will replaced -- it's just that a human and AI will be able to do the work of a few humans. Same work, less people.
I'd argue more of a mix of Brave New World, 1984, and Atlas Shrugged
X11 was neither developed for or is a part of linux. Like I get the folks who consider the GNU userland tools to be a part of the "linux"-and-stuff-we-expect-to-be-bundled, but X11 is pretty separate.

Either way screen recording is working in all major wayland WMs, so you can do that in "linuw" (or whatever you choose to call it)
Glasgow's Sad Oompa Loompa Isn't Gonna Sugarcoat This
Unfortunately not only are there plenty of examples in the real world where this isn’t true and people are already being replaced, there’s a larger issue, and that’s the issue of the pace of improvement.

People think AI technologies improve in a linear fashion. But there is nothing restricting this area of technology from non-linear progress.

Consider the failing prophesies of AGI as a precient example of what’s happening:

- It was 2015, and I’m reading articles about AGI being here in 2050 at least.

- It’s 2018 and everyone is talking about a few new research papers but secure in their predictions but maybe feeling like it is skewing towards the bottom end of that range (except for a few inspired nerds — my people — who boldly claim 2035).

- It’s 2022 and suddenly an AI is blowing people’s minds and we have the fastest growing technical product in the history of the world. Predictions are now 2030 for an AGI.

- It’s 2024 and people are debating if AGI has already happened and debating about the definition and many people are calling for an “advanced level” AGI in the next 2-3 years.

My point is that predictions of this technology have been terrible. Just like the worst. People have been off on every prediction by orders of magnitude.

So now every major tech company is blowing all their money towards AI, realigning their business towards hardware and software solutions and we’re in the middle of an arms race the size of Jupiter towards AI technology, and it’s happening across the world but definitely in both China and the USA where the stock market is going crazy and 25% of the entire markets growth is just nvidia’s massive growth (and those gains are basically powered by the leading ai training solutions).

So, the idea that somehow the technology isn’t going to replace people is asinine. This is the biggest, fastest tech wave I have ever seen, it’s growing geometrically, it’s funded by insane amounts of money and has most of the western and eastern world’s technology research focused on it, and has been wildly ahead of predictions from its inception.

Let’s get real about this. This is a bomb going off in slow motion and is set to interrupt employment and radically reshape society in a time scale that almost no humans can physically comprehend.

But more importantly the trend is accelerating and like most parabolic markets that don’t have physical limitations holding them back (like input materials for a gold rush) it could accelerate to literally crazy levels. There’s no restriction but breakthroughs here.

I’m aware of the current reality of the software systems and I know what I’m saying is futurist, but from a trend perspective we are way, way ahead of where we thought we were going to be and the trends point to railgun speed acceleration from here.
If government truly believed in climate change they would ban passenger cars. Both for taxis and private use. Or gave out very limited purchase licenses.
Oh absolutely, but I realized another way to think about SBF's sentence:

Imagine this scenario:

1. Scammer defrauds a person for $$$

2. Scammer is caught

3. Scammer goes to jail

4. Scammer gets out

5. Scammer goes back to step 1

vs

1. Scammer defrauds 5 people

<repeat the same sequence as above and then return to defrauding 5 people>

vs

1. Scammer defrauds 50 people

until you get to thousands of people and companies a la SBF

The first case of one scam at a time will end up spending more time in jail than SBF despite defrauding far fewer people. Is that fair/just? We have plenty of other crimes where we consider the penalty for many crimes at once to be the same (if not worse) than count * penalty, so it's not just.
If Tim Bray weren't a renowned progressive / socialist, I would have listened to him about Bubbles and Investing. But he comes from a very liberal skeptical engineer and is always wrong. (note the use of right-wing used for Tax cuts. is Tax breaks that extreme of a position? It is for socialists / progressives).

Anyway, here's to think about AI. Intelligence is the most precious commodity of all of humanity. Intelligence captured in bits is easily distributed and scaled.

We pay $1000 / hour for intelligent agents and it's easy to see, how a super intelligent system can capture 50% margins on that. (Volume of Data and Proprietary hooks will make switching difficult).

But, wait, there is more.

Intelligence begets more Intelligence. Every artifact an AI produces, we need more AI to maintain, enhance, distribute it. So, for the first time we have an entity whose demand creates it's own demand spiraling into a vicious positive growth rate.

All this means is our AI demand may at 0.000001% of what the demand in 20 years would look like, which makes AI enablers incredibly cheap. I could be wrong, but to dismiss the possibility is exactly what's wrong with today's "skeptical liberal (with a decel mindset) engineer's" framework / vision.

I think more likely if Tesla charging is becoming the standard, just build all cars to have a charge port in the same place. I’ve never understood the need to be creative with where you put a plug/gas nozzle. If that’s your differentiation you’ve got worse problems.
> It just seems kind of wrong to expend so much thought inventing new languages for the movie when it had so much context and culture already there to use.

It did all work great in the books, and would certainly have worked in the movies as well. But, the effort and care they've put into this additionally world-building seems totally in the spirit of the original Dune to me. There were a number of things that I had imagined differently when reading the books, but this was a rare case where I think they've done an excellent job bringing their version to the screen.
To be fair, 4chan has derogatory names for everything.
Guess I have a better memory than I had estimated. :-)

>Tech stocks are responsible for most of the gains in stock market in past year.

Ok, but none of the major tech companies other than Nvidia are AI companies. Sure, some of the pop to MSFT's stock is probably because of the OpenAI deal, AWS, GCP, and Azure is riding some of the wave of new AI investment money coming in, but none of them are first and foremost AI companies selling AI.
You might be underestimating how many Cybertruck buyers are not pickup truck buyers.

Also not sure that a little added charging convenience is going to sway Cybertruck buyers to an F150. The "antialiased 3D polygon" design is a big part of the appeal.
What is your definition of "subtracting a year"? Seems like that's a relatively ambiguous operation without more specification.
