Assuming you meant to also include 'verification', then I can agree somewhat.

As an ASIC designer, you usually get just one stab at a hardware implementation, there's no 0-day point release. It's got to work so you spend the minimum time typing it in. Then you devote the maximum time to verifying it. I think some of the very poor quality s/w we are all subject to is partly due to a false sense of security that sw tooling provides. I expect fully working and efficient hardware, I'd like that from my software too, but in reality I rarely get that. The idea of applying more software dev processes/principles to hardware is a bit frightening to me.

And the fact that we went from having to pay a few € for 500MB to having (with Iliad) 10 GB FREE roaming in the whole EU? Damn I love the EU so much.
Interestingly, Kagi does the same thing.

Though this raises a question for me. If searching "American inventors" threw down pages and pages of white people, would the Internet raise a stink about it?

>But on that note actually I just touched one of my own nerves. Maybe we should be holding them to the "human" standard. I am abolutely sick of living in the algorithmic world where some algorithm makes a decision about me and I'm stuck with the fallout of that decision with no recourse. I think we need to start considering bot activity from a company as the same level of liability as a human.

I sometimes take on a very uncharitable view of Big Tech and its focus on scale: they want all the power and profit of technological force-multipliers, without extending any responsibility and humanity for what it brings. I don't think it's unreasonable at all to expect well-resourced organizations like Google to invest in mitigating the externalities and edge cases their scale naturally imposes on the world. The alternative is basically letting a sociopathic toddler run wild with a flamethrower.

> The first and most clearly top of mind recently is the US defense umbrella which allows the EU to invest on other things instead of defense.

In the past 30-40 years the US has been the direct or indirect cause of most of the world's conflicts and wars. "US defense umbrella" has cost the EU more than its claimed benefit.

> the fact that they have much better benefits provided by their governments and hence their money goes a lot further. That is of course related to the fact that they are not generally paying much for defense.

Ah yes. Europeans have benefits because US spends so much on military. I find no fault in this logic.

Anybody's guess whether they're doing it right now.

YouTube has been the first really big experiment in libertarian algorithms serving functional purposes. They tried to get 'engagement'. Succeeded in the sense that there's no rival YouTube in practice, so yay them? Unfortunately the most efficient method of getting humans to provide this engagement is to turn 'em into monsters and cultists, something the algorithm did not account for.

And here we are: the algorithm doesn't get to just prioritize engagement anymore. I honestly do not think Google were serving political ends there. I think they may have drawn the conclusion that seeking raw engagement inherently serves certain political ends, even ends that threaten their own company's existence and freedom, and therefore they are trying to bump up a level and define what is 'good' engagement, without abandoning engagement itself.
> There's other ways to find websites, like HN and word-of-mouth;

The problem is that, to get traffic to your site (i.e. have your speech heard), it doesn't help if you use these other ways to find websites. You need others to use these ways. And 99% of them won't. I'm all for advocating widespread change of these habits, but that's a society-wide effort, not something a single website can do, much less one de-listed by Google.
I figured it was because the Democrats never bothered to make it a law.
I don't, I don't think it matters at all.

The attitude however, towards someone actively working for free to make your product better and wider-used, is what makes me say this.

The actively working against someone trying to make your stuff work more and give more people the opportunity to use your product, is nothing if not a clear indication of your wish for your product to die.

I don’t use Django but used to write many scripts in Salt. The double curly braces are used by various templating engines to inject variables into static files.

The attack here is that an attacker can probably run unsafe code on the server and exfiltrate data or worse.

I think by default Django will throw a 404 or 400 like you mentioned. OP would have liked the request to get zapped by the WAF though.
Constraints are not too crazy of a concept. It’s not much different than say, writing a traditional Schoenberg style 12-tone composition.

You would create your tone rows and then write your composition. If you follow the rules, then it is also 12-tone serialism.

> Let me guess, those well-credentialed scientists were named Dr. Jordan Peterson?

The most credentialed scientists speaking against the mainstream in Covid policy were:

Jay Bhattacharya, Stanford; Martin Kulldorff, Harvard; and Sunetra Gupta, Oxford.

They wrote the so called Great Barrington Declaration [1].

They are highly credentialed scientist in epidemiology, and they are professors in some of the World's top institutions. Google, Facebook and pre-Musk Twitter did wrong when censoring them. But make no mistake: Their Covid views were, and are, against the mainstream. For example very different from [2].

Just because you hold the minority opinion and get censored for that, doesn't necessarily mean that you were right.

I don't think Jordan Peterson said much anything about Covid when the situation was ongoing? I think Jordan Peterson only started to comment about Covid policy much later, in 2023 and 2024.

Fair point. :-)

> I what that generational gap says for the viability (in terms of user acceptance) of the Nix store in all its ugly glory in the future.

I think there's a word, or several, or maybe just a letter or two, missing here.

But yes, I thought of that, too.

What irks me a little is that the Nix folks I've spoken to seem to feel that they have simply fixed this issue now, and nothing more need be done. While in fact I think there is a lot more work to be done here, and maybe GoboLinux and Spack and things show the way.

The (to me) madness of things like Btrfs volumes, layering another filesystem namespace on top of the Unix one, allowing insanity like multiple distros in one partition:

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/742392/can-i-use-bt...

Or installing Windows on Btrfs:

https://www.lilysthings.org/blog/windows-on-btrfs/

Hints at other approaches. As in: why not both? Maybe it's possible to have multiple _views_ of a filesystem, so via one API you "see" a flat namespace with hashed directories, and with another a conventional hierarchical one -- just as a Gmail account can be viewed as flat and hierarchical at the same time using an IMAP client.

This isn't over. There's some distance to go yet.

Yeah Europe (EU) has not performed the last 15+ years. Falling further behind the USA and parts of Asia is set to replace them in terms of stature. Limited technical innovation, disastrous energy policy, weak international demand, and an unaddressed migrant and reproduction crisis that will pressure their 20th century social systems, spell a bleak future for the EU.

I expect tourism to continue to be strong as the prosperous from the US and Asia take in the charm of the old world.

I suspect US-ians in general have a hard time realizing that the US is not the only planet in the universe. It is part of the culture to assume that the US way of doing things is universal.

> EU citizens haven't been brainwashed into thinking that their government is their enemy, at least not to the same extent as the US.

US citizens haven't been brainwashed into thinking that their government is their friend, at least not to the same extent as the EU.

Honestly, if you talk to real people within the EU, you'll find that maybe half of them are mostly against the EU. Real life is not the same as HN, because most citizens are not part of the "elite" that benefits the most from EU programs and systems. Like all governments there are very good things about the EU and very bad things. And somebody has to pay for their maintenance.

You should be concerned if your thought patterns are healthy if you dismiss everybody with a different opinion as yours as "brainwashed". It doesn't help you in the long run.

Yes, you distribute whatever you like. It's only infrastructure, not content.
Tamed animals also can generally reproduce in captivity, with exceptions being exceptions more than the rule. For instance zebras have yet to be domesticated but can be tamed, reproduce in captivity, and we've even created all sorts of hybrids since zebras also can reproduce with horses, donkeys and so on.
That's an artifact of them switching to the standard hardware platform of the industry for a while (basically a PC with some niceties on top). When it was PowerPC it was not as easy and your options were pretty limited.

And now with their custom silicon, no other system is officially supported and your "options" are basically hacks that can only use some parts of the hardware.

The platform is notoriously undocumented so it's not like if Apple is making it easy to install any other system. In fact, the best you can say is that they didn't outright block running other OSs but you can't really use the hardware properly that way (for example the fingerprint reader).

When it comes to iThings, they actually go out of their way to make sure you can't even install any version of the OS than what they chose (sometimes people run into cases where it's extremely annoying to be unable to downgrade the OS because the hardware has become way too slow to be useful).

So, when you say they helped significantly that makes me laugh, they used the fact that their hardware that was very close to the common PC could indeed boot other systems as a marketing tool but not much more.
The idea of opposing excessive regulation isn't the same thing as this idea that regulation is a sliding scale with "more = worse" and "less = better". But yes, opposition to regulations did exist before. The former isn't a Koch thing, the latter is.

I agreed with your suggestion. Username is a poor choice.

I’ll go ahead and repeat that I have said in previous comments:

> or their name in your contacts

This is a huge mistake on Signal’s part — even if both have saved each other’s numbers the username-to-username connection should not mix with any other “normal conversation” ever!!

They should also not try to show the ser “name” either - some other name or a named conversation.
Were they? Or did a Yankee journalist write another hit piece about rednecks (with a funny accent to boot) getting what they deserved?

At any rate relying on EU programs is a fools errand, they pull them up at the drop of a hat to discipline governments. Imagine if Trump could block all federal spending in California because he didn't like their politics.
I’m not quite sure what it is that you’re asking. When you want to show something in a browser, you go through this process: JavaScript -> style -> layout -> paint -> composite.

The browser will construct a render tree and then calculate the layout position of each element/node in a process where it’s extremely easy to run into performance issues. And since the rest of the render pipeline waits for this to conclude, it’ll lead to very poor performance. You can look into layout trashing if you’re curious.

My point is more along the lines of how you can ask a lot of frontend engineers what the render pipeline is and how it works and many won’t be able to answer. Which isn’t a huge issue, because almost everyone who does complicated frontends either use a virtual dom or exclusive hire people who do know. But for the most part, you won’t be fine with just JavaScript for massive UI projects as the person I was replying to suggested.

What would strain credulity is if Google released this, after 10s of thousands of highly-paid dev and PM hours, plus thousands of full-time tester hours, without having identified the problems the internet found within 60 seconds.

Where would you set that? The only PC I’ve seen that lets you explicitly set a target TDP is the Steam Deck, the most I’ve seen elsewhere is the ability to turn off turboboost and limit clock speed.

Regardless, a default TDP above that of a U chip in a Nano is still an odd choice given that machine’s lack of cooling and battery capacity resulting from its size. It means that a lot of buyers who have no idea how to reduce it are going to have a subpar experience.
