> From a technical level, I personally preferred WSL1

Same. WSL1 was ambitious, wild, and incredibly impressive despite the flaws that eventually convinced Microsoft to start over with WSL2.

> WSL2 is just a VM, yes, I totally agree -- but a much better-integrated one than most non-techies could ever hope to achieve, and still better than most techies could achieve unless they really knew their stuff and they were competent in both of 2 different OSes.

Agreed! WSL2 has a very impressive OOTB experience in terms of getting you from nothing to a VM that you can use. It would be a lot of work to set up comparable integrations yourself.

> My personal impression is that it's an attempt at the classic MICROS~1 "embrace and extend" manoeuvre on Linux.

Unfortunately I can't disagree. People seem to think that MICROS~1 is dead, but as far as I can tell they're in a very similar monopoly position with more or less the same interests now as they've ever had.

> No, I've never tried the Mac tools you mention, and I don't own a Yubikey or anything like it. I try new distros almost daily on my Mac but I have no need of any integration -- I am not a developer. I review distros sometimes, though, and occasionally things like hypervisors:

In that case, Orbstack and Lima might be tools worth your writing, the same way hypervisors and virtualization apps are! They're attempting to be WSL2-alikes but they don't use their own hypervisors (Lima supports qemu and Apple's virtualization framework, idk about Orbstack.)
I'd say you're making an awfully large pigeonhole of "anti-woke". I'm right there with your views on which way the political winds are blowing for the reactionaries and the general uselessness of reactionary populism, but the article and it's first link have some pretty damning factual descriptions. Like I don't see why an image generation tool that mangles every query so it conforms to the political desires of different loud minority is of use to nearly anyone.

And sure, the site and its cited twits could be cherry picking the worst examples, to make mountains out of molehills as political hacks tend to do. But it's talking about a notable product at a notable company, so unless those examples were outright faked there is still truth in its criticism.

Also I'm old enough to realize that 7 years isn't actually that long of a time, and one of the main reasons we get destructive spite votes like Trump is precisely people's resentment of this overbearing paternalism being pushed on them.
Old code built with a different compiler isn't something that should be just dropped into production.

If you want to do this, you should version the build infrastructure as well as the code.

Otherwise, it's important to look at the new warnings: they might reflect changes in the generated code. Putting -Werror in your default build settings makes sure this happens before something blows up in prod.
> Tesla's keeps getting worse and worse.

Oh, and they replaced ultrasonic sensors with cameras in newer cars.
Assuming it’s true. How is it related to article?
Plenty of people do it. I roomed with 40 yo right out of college. It's fine if you want to live a high class life, but otherwise, its not hard to not get on the hedonic treadmill.
For these situations I think a small generator and cutting the battery size is the right move.
Cool, that could be a good reference point. :)
There are still regular schedules. Flight 1172 will have the same scheduled route and time one day after another. But with computers, the visibility into the schedule is both obscured (because they’ll show you only the flights with open seats) and less necessary (because they’ll show you only the flights with open seats). Crewing requirements mean that it’s important to have some stability in operating schedules. The stereotype of flight crews staying in a hotel at the far end of their flight is only the case for long-haul flights which comprise a minority of flights. Most crew will be on an out and back itinerary for their working days, sleeping in their own beds at the end of the day.
That some consumers, maybe even many, pay attention to NCAP ratings before buying a car.
You can see this in that Flutter didn't copy JSX and its usability seems better.

Not that I'm confident Flutter is worth the trade-offs.

I thought Brazil was famous for their trade barriers on electronics. ISTR that was the reason that some platforms (i. e. the Sega Genesis) had absurd longevity there-- there was a local license-built version at a reasonable price, and if you wanted a PS3, you'd pay twice the price in import duties.

The Chinese cars are compelling, so I don't doubt that Washington will say "they won't look so good if the $19k starting price became $82k after penalty taxes."
If there isn't an obvious answer to the obvious question, then it's up to the experts to communicate that information more effectively.

Experimenting? It’s been around for a long time. My 1999 Jetta had it. It’s smoother and you can control the fuel adder on throttle opening from all angles.
Sure, it’s not instant, but stabbing the gas in a non dbw is not great either.

I can understand some of the benefits of JSX, but compared to Vue SFC's, it's a mess to read.

React CSS modules feel so unwieldy compared to Vue SFC's inline `scoped` CSS.

Vue's approach to templating using `v-for` and `v-if` means that you won't end up with a big block of logic mixed in with the template (you can still do it, but Vue's nature steers you away from it).
Every so often I like to play the mirror game. Pick some arbitrary date in the past (my birthday, release of Star Wars, etc.), then see what I get when I take the time between now and then and go that distance back from that date. In the case of my father who’s turning 92 this year, the mirror game takes me all the way back to 1840.

I think, there being GTP traffic originating from victim S-GW through interface to GRX destined to P-GW at complicit/compromised foreign carrier should be normal. Although, there being no corresponding traffic towards the cell towers for the GTP packets would be weird, and initial port knocking on which victim carrier S-GW would initiate VPN over would be weird too.

The diagram in the article is succinct but only a small part of complex full 3GPP architecture[1][2]. I kind of suspect it had probably been easy enough to chalk such traffic up to "a buggy implementation they're using over there" for a while.

I think it should be compared to Nuke instead of After Effects... After Effects works more with timelines and effects... Nuke is node based, which is what Natron has built itself to mimick.

People who use Roku, why do you use it instead of something like Google Stick, Amazon Firestick, Apple TV, or the built in smart function of your TV?

I never understood why it was a $60 billion stock when what they make is close to a commodity and worse, all TVs now come with some smart function as standard.
The Info extraction and Question Answering metrics are far worse than transformers though.

They also say that in the blog "However, both Based and Mamba still underperform the strongest Transformer baseline, sometimes by large margins. This is consistent with our “no free lunch” observation above"
> But the organization wants to see physical controls for turn signals, hazard lights, windshield wipers, the horn, and any SOS features like the European Union's eCall feature.

Those are exactly what is at issue.

This also needs to deal with multiple languages and regional accents for Europe.

If I, an American, rent a car in Germany, do I need to speak German in order to engage the windshield wipers? For that matter, navigating the on screen controls may also be problematic.

Here's a picture of a German car - https://www.shutterstock.com/image-photo/dashboard-luxury-ge...

Do you know which button to push to get the hazard lights on?

It's remarkably similar to my Honda. https://www.sheehyhonda.com/honda-dashboard-light-meanings/ and my parents' Chrysler https://cars.usnews.com/cars-trucks/chrysler/300/2019/photos...
I think OP is using “first class” as in “an explicit semantic affordance”, and you seem to be using “first class” as in “a supported operand” (or similar, feel free to correct me if I’m misunderstanding). In which case both points are right, albeit orthogonal.
Nah,
It looks like that (very clean and encased) bridge crane lives above the normal clean room ceiling? Makes sense. What tickled me most was the high polish stainless steel "hooks" hanging from the crane (but with some lifting parts painted). Hanging on white (polymer?) ropes. Nice.

Car manufacturers still like their cars to look good and some people do look at those ratings when buying a car. Or you think people bought the old Volvo 240 because it’s sexy?
Arguably they should all be in external files. HTML in one, CSS in another, and Javascript to load and cache them without any embedded strings. That's how I prefer to write. For one thing, it lets me choose which things I want to cache and which I don't. I can compile from SCSS and deploy without changing any JS or HTML files. Usually my rollups are just the JS.
Looks like a huge chunk of aluminium.
What car do you have without power steering? Or, are you referring to electric as opposed to hydraulic power steering? I haven't seen a car without power steering since the early 00s (which was a 90s car).

The steering deadzone is not purely a function of power steering. Some of it is design or could be attributed to that, but a bunch of it also comes from slop in the physical connections in the steering column, as well as the suspension bushings, your tyre profile, etc.

I’ve yet to find any car where the voice control works speedily and reliably, unless using Siri via CarPlay.

(Siri is actually pretty great at accurately recognising words, it’s just not always so good at doing something useful with them…)

Even Tesla’s is really bad: “Turn off the wipers” frequently gets interpreted as “turn off the wife please” or other similar nonsense.

You can easily shoot yourself in the foot with jQuery (or direct DOM manipulation for that matter), but it's not that hard not to. It just requires some discipline, like most things. React is also far from foolproof and not worth the added complexity in most cases, IMO.
Ugh - I'm so sorry, both for you and for him.

On top of that, "WebTV" was back before the Internet was a thing and before anyone realized how the Internet can be dangerous. I'm sure it was hard for everyone else to understand or have compassion for him (and you).

I'm sorry for you both.
I assume it never matters if you modify it or not since you're fully allowed to fork and redistribute GPL code. It doesn't even prohibit modifications that enable compatibility with proprietary software.

The ambiguity is in whether the two programs (proprietary and GPL) together count as a "work based on the program". Your grep example seems to support the idea that they don't, and it wouldn't fall under the operating system components exemption because it "accompanies the executable". But then where is the boundary? Others have said you can't make a GPL shim to convert a library to an executable then use it in this way.

Having been driving Tesla for nearly a year went on a trip last week and got 2015 Toyota. Air con wasn't easier to control even after 6 days of driving. Still had to look at 10+ buttons all crammed up in 6cm diameter ring and figure out what is what.

With Tesla 99% of time I just flip temperature slider at bottom corner. For rest - open larger menu for very intuitive extra controls.

Kinda insane how mass media is picking up worst implementations from legacy auto and extrapolate that to a car that has best UX. It's literally 180 degree turn disinformation.
Are they just morons? Why would they buy a much more expensive car and not use the thing they bought?
Since we're discussing prescriptivism (how things should be) rather than descriptivism (how things are in a subset of legal jurisdictions): I didn't force them to leave a copy of their code on my device, but I own every single bit of electricity and magnetism and metal and plastic within it. I thus have the right to flip 0s into 1s, and 1s into 0s, or smash the whole thing. It's mine. Redistributing anything, admittedly, might be somewhat related, but would be a different discussion.

Any effort to disenfranchise me from those rights is, in my opinion, unethical. If a company were to try to do so under the guise of a semantic argument, I would find it even more distasteful.
Reminds me of the adidas run tracking app. I need to go forward and back in the menu to even start a run. Then it does a countdown. So you start, because why wait until the end of the countdown. Once your phone is in the pocket. Then it decides that you need confirm something like (GPS signal is weak) through a popup. Of course you have no idea it did that. So you pull out your phone once you get back to your car, only to realize it wasn't tracing anything at all.
On the opposite end, it's never smart enough to realize that you're no longer running and you got in your car and started driving. So it will happily add tens of kms. Then to correct it you somehow need to change the distance, time and km separately.

It's like it's an incredible combination of both smart and stupid at the same time. You have to tap, double tap, slide, and press and hold at different places in the UI too.

The trend of touch screens replacing physical controls in domains where muscle memory is an advantage is an utter atrocity.

No amount of interface versatility/flexibility can come close to touching the utility of not having to take your eyes off your subject. NONE.
In many cases, you don’t really need to check pointers unless you specifically want to handle the nil case. Go’s panic / recover feature lets you “catch” nil pointer access elsewhere. For instance, if you have an HTTP handler, it’s way easy to install a middleware that recovers from panics than it is to check for nil everywhere.
This makes any link you share look significantly more sketchy.
My grandmother used to have a car where the horn was a button at the end of one of the stems. I think it was on the same stem that controlled the wipers. I wish I remembered what kind of car it was. I think it was from the 40s.
Journal of humanistic mathematics (https://scholarship.claremont.edu/jhm/) is a good source. Their semi-annnual issues usually have a few poems.
Agreed. My daughter (5) is using a G6 + TSlim X2 closed loop. The target blood glucose is 6.0 mmol/L and you can't decrease it. However, I haven't tried (and likely won't try) anything DIY since it's my daughter and not myself.

Despite this, it is nice whilst my daughter is at school, since some automated corrections (even if overly conservative) are certainly better than none — teachers generally won't administer corrections (but will bolus for food).
Not holding my breath. ChatGPT is at a level far beyond anything else. Hopefully it's a sound model.
> Multi-patterning: A method where multiple exposures are used to create smaller features. (Would like to know more)

It might be better to start by considering ways to play with shadows cast by a single photolithography mask...

The Wikipedia article on "Computational Lithography" is a good place to start:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_lithography

A particularly fascinating technique, linked in that article, is the use of "Phase-Shifting Photo Masks":

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_mask

And then there are ways to play with diffraction effects, at the edges of the opaque shapes of the mask:

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

In addition to diffraction and phase shift patterns, you can create shapes by illuminating the mask and wafer with more than one light source.

It may be helpful to consider this "multiple illumination" of a single photo mask in the context of a "double slit" interference pattern:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction_from_slits#Multi...

After you've run out of tricks, you have write over the shapes laid down by a single mask, running the wafer through the process with a different mask.

I find the current Wikipedia article for multi-patterning to be a bit more difficult to understand, but it's certainly worth the effort.

After studying this article a bit, I think it might help to start in the middle of the article, at "Pitch Splitting". A second read of the article, starting at the top, may then provide more context:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_patterning#Pitch_spli...

.

(Ironic: the article on Multiple Patterning requires multiple passes!)

1913 German edition (980 pages), https://archive.org/details/aufzweiplanetenr01lass/page/n3/m... may be out of copyright in Germany. If so, it could be machine translated into English and improved by humans.

Unabridged German editions are rare and expensive, e.g. https://www.lwcurrey.com/pages/books/133185/kurd-lasswitz/au....

1971 abridged English translation quoted a leader of German and later American rocket and space programs, https://www.amazon.com/Two-Planets-Kurd-Lasswitz/dp/08093050...

Wernher von Braun: "I shall never forget how I devoured this novel with curiosity and excitement as a young man."

From the dust jacket of the English translation:

Lasswitz's Martians differ little from man physically, but ethically, intellectually, scientifically, and socially they are the prototype of the ideal human being. They seek to educate man, asking in return only air and energy to supplement the diminished supplies in their own, older world.

The story revolves around a group of German scientists who, when seeking the North Pole, come upon a Martian settlement there. The Martians have built an artificial island, adapted to their physical needs, above which-6356 kilometers above-hovers their space station, a giant ring such as twentieth-century astronautical scientists have seriously speculated upon.

... More important than the fantastic technological developments in the story is the author's belief in the humanizing potential of science and technology and his vision of a utopian world based on the ideals and ideas which the Martians seek to transmit to the men of Earth.

Kurd Lasswitz wrote his novel when scientific and industrial developments were sweeping the Western world. The balloon was a product of the late eighteenth century, but the dirigible had just entered the skies-Count Zeppelin began building his ships in 1898-and although the forerunner of today's airplane was already on the drawing board the first actual tests were almost a decade away. Yet Lasswitz's prophetic vision went far beyond the technological achievements of his day.

The young German reader of "Two Planets", Wernher von Braun, would develop ballistic missiles for Germany/USA, rockets that launched the first US space satellite and the NASA launch vehicle that took Apollo to the Moon. He was an advocate of a human mission to Mars. Remembered by Tom Lehrer's satirical music, https://youtube.com/watch?v=QEJ9HrZq7Ro

Electronic power steering already exists. It's used in a lot of cars, and has been for at least 10 years. Your car may have one of these systems in it.

In an electric power steering system there are steering angle and torque sensors that know what direction the wheel is turned an how hard it has turned, and this is connected to an electric motor that powers the gears to move the steering rack.

There are still regulations in place that require a mechanical connection to the steering wheel and rack, but try and turn the wheel with the car off and see if your wheels move... But when the car is running when you turn the wheel you're just a voting remember in the system.

There are no such regulations for throttles. Pretty much every car since the late 80s has electronic throttle control and there are no mechanical linkages from pedal to throttle body.
That's when your batch jobs are running. Partially kidding but companies will wait until there's lower demand to take advantage of spot pricing.
Must not be doing anything very complicated. Wheres your impressive link if thats a prerequisite for discussion?
Some ORMs suck, I’ll give you that.
My 1995 Renault Clio had it as a button on the indicator stalk. Worked very well, in my view. Much easier than pressing the centre of the steering wheel. There's often no need to even move your hand!
