I agree, but I guess the point I was trying to make is that I think everybody is susceptible to over-biasing toward thinking the thing they know how to do is super important, to the point that they sometimes over-do it, despite their best intentions.

I would say that "a good programmer doesn't write more software than is necessary", but despite my best intentions, I'm certain that I write more software than is necessary, because writing software is my hammer and lots of things look like nails to me.

I think it requires more than just being "good" at something to overcome this tendency. I'm sure the very best operational planners, like the very best software engineers, consistently strike the perfect balance, but I suspect most "good" planners, like most "good" (even "great") software engineers I know, still struggle with this tendency.
This is my experience too. You have to be have deep domain knowledge to really get the LLM to do what you want. Then it saves me a ton of time.

Oh, the tragedy of what could have been: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefox_OS
lol. Shareholders won’t care if Apple pulls out of Europe if Europe makes it impossible to make a profit.

Another comment claims that the App Store represents something like 40% of Apple’s profit. If you chop a company’s profit in half and lay on a bunch of regulatory costs, pulling out of the market starts to look appealing.

And, who is to say that the EC will stop here? What happens when all the alternative app stores fail because they fail to enforce the same developer-hostile, user-friendly features as Apple (like request to track). You think the EC will just roll over and let that happen? Or will they take even stronger measures?

Continuing the humor the EC is just throwing good money after bad at this point. Shareholders can see that just as well as anyone else.
It was a tool that was either very accurate or inaccurate depending on your perspective. If DS said rain would be starting in 8 minutes, it almost always rained at my house very soon thereafter. Very accurate. However, sometimes that rain came 4 minutes later or perhaps 12 minutes later. Now the forecast was off by a factor of 50%. Could be no big deal or a thing that ruins your morning depending on whether you got caught out in it and expected to by dry or not.
All court orders are warrants. That is the most basic definition of a warrant. So a subpoena issued by the court is warranted. A subpoena not issued by a court but accompanied by a separate warrant for the same information constitutes a warranted search or seizure where failure to comply with said search/seizure by the warranted party (ie. law enforcement) could constitute multiple crimes depending on the circumstances.
Shouldn't that be the artist's prerogative?

Aren't most people here pretty big on "right to be forgotten"?
Also they took over InvisionFree/Zetaboards, which also destroyed their customization.
Electric vehicles are heavier, which means they must spend more brake pads to stop. But they also use regenerative breaking, which reduces pad wear. So I'm not sure if they make it worse or not.

Right, but that's really using Linux not Android. You can also run Linux on Chromebooks or just SSH to a Linux server using iOS, but someone has to teach students those skills. Just knowing how to use a smartphone in general won't work.
Trivially easy. Create an app that generates a random number and store it in the apps local storage. Send that with any interaction to whatever service you're providing. Hiding this feat in plain sight isn't that hard.

Currently there are two things preventing a developer from doing this:

1. you're supposed to be honest and not do that.

2. you could be caught during review by a bot or a human.

Nothing at the OS level to prevent this.
My understanding was that the main theory behind "Mast years" of trees was that it is an evolutionary adaptation to overwhelm squirrels and such so that some acorns are not eaten, and survive to grow into trees.

Are they claiming that female cicadas are the direct cause of mast years? Different cicada broods have different patterns, do we see different mast year patterns in trees that correlate to the local cicada patterns?

No, but build a railway in a tunnel across the border from Mexico to the US and that defense will not necessarily help you in court.

Are you aware of the work on https://github.com/paul-gauthier/aider? What's your take on generating code diffs directly instead of code editing instructions?
Interestingness may be in the eye of the beholder, but it's neither cynical nor nihilist to observe what usually happens in situations like this and to make predictions about the future based on observations of the past.
This is great to see more resources being made for the Playdate. It is such a fun little console and the games made for it are such a breath of fresh air

I hope Panic is able to either retrofit or make a v2 with a backlight. I realized how low the contrast on the screen was after my cataract surgery and seeing details in some of the games becomes near impossible in less-than-ideal conditions.
There will be a scapegoat, and then big bonuses for everyone else for eliminating the bad seed, at the expense of the workers who won't get raises to pay for it all.
Why would someone do that? Boeing are plenty competent and making themselves look bad. Just fly a couple planes into the ground, forget a few nuts and bolts here and there, they are doing fine.
That still doesn't make it a market, they lost users with this decision.

It's nowhere like shops where you can price compare and pick the shop you want every week.

In an actual market, both marketplace would compete.
I truly wonder what dedication one would have to have in order to learn 54 languages. That is just the most impressive even if you know the language at a basic level. Quote from the article: "including one who spoke 54 languages with at least some proficiency."
Elements that are placed in page regions are shared between pages with the exception of CSS generated content such as running headers. Shadows are attached as an XObject image with a SMask indeed :)
Google is "giving away" Go in order to get en ecosystem, which means they can offload training to a community and maybe even get code from external.

They give away Chrome for spreading it and giving them control over web standards.

AT&T gives UNIX away as they have no revenue stream on top of it and it being research.

Google isn't giving out their research work.
"Laundering money" is not, in fact, illegal.

From the very same link you posted: only laundering "the proceeds of specified unlawful activity" is illegal.

It is totally 100% legal to launder clean money.
> none of you ever mentioned “I like being restricted” as a reason for their purchase.

Here is the thing, I don't feel like I am being restricted. I never said the words I like being restricted. Want to know who is? The developers... the people pushing for this.

THAT is what I am talking about, please go re-read what I have written.

Which for the record I think is a good thing, we know many companies will take advantage of their users if given the option. And before you jump in "well apple is taking advantage of you", I bought their device knowing full well what our relationship was.

I even mentioned that I think Apple should open up the store on their restrictions on porn apps and things like that. But that is also a separate discussion.

The condescending attitude is making you read the wrong thing and it's frankly kinda tiring.

Edit:
And yes, people have talked about the restrictions put on developers on the App Store being a positive for Users... A lot over the years. Especially when it comes to billing.
I drive an EV for over a year, I barely use the break any more. Single pedal driving is wonderful
Do you really see the world that black and white?

How about research into other brake materials that are less harmful? Or any number of other things.
I remember being on a 787 not long after they were introduced and after boarding, we had a 20 minute delay because of an equipment problem that required "rebooting the plane" (the pilot's words). They did a full power shutoff, the cabin lights went off for a few minutes (and the cabin quickly warmed up because the A/C was off and the electronic window shades turned clear), then about 20 minutes later the pilot said everything was good and we were ready for departure. The rest of the flight was uneventful.
Scott Wu! I met Scott at a competitive programming event a few years back.

He is one of a very small group of people (going back to 1989) to get a perfect raw score at the IoI, the olympiad for competitive programming.

https://stats.ioinformatics.org/people/2686

Glad to see that he's putting his (unbelievable) talents to use. To give you a sense, at the event where I met him, he solved 6 problems equivalent to Leetcode medium-to-hard problems in under 15 minutes (total), including reading the problems, implementing input parsing, debugging, and submitting the solutions.
It would be nice, if someone could train stray cats. I have very smart in my neighborhood. And can be hired for cheap, basically a slice of sausage.
As someone who's found Sourcehut to be a great fit for my workflow, I fully agree that it's been a "revelation."
Fun fact - cicadas are edible and reportedly delicious. Whenever big broods emerge you see restaurants serving various dishes - popcorn cicadas (deep fried), chocalate covered, etc etc.

I'm trying to work up the courage to give it a try this time around.
But the real game changer will be GPT-6.
these zero days are already the status quo?!
Yet adding xanthum gum or any sort of thickening agents to a food would make it ultra processed. Both of those have no nutritional value. Why does nutritional value have any relation to if something is ultra processed? It certainly doesn’t matter from a classification standpoint.
In my experiments at Pythagora[0], we've found that sweet spot is technical person who doesn't want to know, doesn't know, or doesn't care about the details, but is still technical enough to be able to guide the AI. Also, it's not either/or, for best effect use human and AI brainpower combined, because what's trivial vs tedious for human and AI is different so actually we can complement each other.

Also, current crop of LLMs are not there yet for large/largish projects. GPT4 is too slow and expensive, while Groq is superfast but open source models are not quite there yet. Claude is somewhere in the middle. I expect somewhere in the next 12 months there's going to be a tipping point where they will be capable, fast, and reliable enough to be in wide use for coding in this style[1].

[0] I have an AI horse in the game with http://pythagora.ai, so yeah I'm biased
[1] It already works well for snippet-level cases (eg GitHub copilot or Cursor.sh) where you still have creative control as a human. It's exponentially harder to have the AI be (mostly) in control.
I have a few years of experience in backend development, and I have realized that LLMs are incredible productivity boosts for generating code only if you know the underlying libraries/frameworks/languages very well. You can then prompt it with very specific instructions and it can go do that. Helps with the typing, but that's pretty much all. I still have to know everything and it can definitely not do everything on autopilot. I would be surprised if this product can do any real work.
We need to go back to horseback riding. It's inevitable.
Why would you expect Siri to know if it is raining at your specific location? Surely there exists an edge where on one side it is raining and on the other it is not raining.

So unless you are sitting next to the the weather station that Siri is getting data from, I would not expect it to know 100% of the time.
This is win for Open Web.
Neat this also shows up in Rainbow's End by Vernor Vinge which seems to pull a lot of themes from the short story this is used in.

Rust has an industry and a hobbyist ecosystem, whereas I’m not sure if Ada ever had the hobbyists on board.
Unless that's changed for the worse, you are misremembering the CTF rules.

App marketplaces pay 0.50€ per install-year from zero.

App developers (except web distribution, perhaps) get 1M free app installs per year, regardless of marketplace.
This is the thing I miss most about in-person work. I used to overhear conversations and jump in or just listen and learn something, and this just doesn't happen with Slack, Zoom, etc.
This is has nothing to do with the companies being European. DMA doesn't apply to infotainment systems.
No, the "core technology fee" applies to the app store too.
so there are zero situations where this could possibly be useful to anybody, nice. so glad we traded PWAs for this.

Thank you. I felt for years that this is the way to go: I hate moving without purpose, and "being fit" is too abstract a goal for me to keep at it. But I don't mind at all moving to accomplish something, and honestly, getting a high-score in a game is as good a "something" as anything. I read a few opinions like yours, unfortunately, most were drowned in "VR doomerism" (doesn't work, too big, too heavy, motion sickness, low res, etc. etc.) - but I'm now at the point where it's becoming more and more apparent that I have to do something. You just gave me the final nudge and I firmly decided to try VR for cardio. Thanks :)
foreign intelligence is outside the purview of a domestic municipal police department. the US does not allow foreign municipalities to install police departments on US soil.
Once you know Russian, Polish and Serbian - you know all Slavic languages basically. Maybe Albanian will give you some problems. That's like 15 for the price of 3.

There's probably similar shortcuts in other language families.
I hope we'll crack down on heavy SUVs vs normal cars before electric vs ICE.
And at some point, the effects may well ripple back to the US as well.
Accurate is more important than interesting
Absolutely. I originally wrote "And Kim Dotcom is Kim Dotcom." after giving context on The Sun. I deleted it because it just felt like a personal attack on him, but you're not wrong!

He was good at CoD though, back in the day. Close enough?
Nice hot take. Did you read the article? Their proposed solution--using the charge to facilitate removing the particles from the air--seems more helpful.
Y'all really need to read the whole act. The quote that stated this doesn't even come from (56).

> (56) Gatekeepers can also have a dual role as developers of operating systems and device manufacturers, including any technical functionality that such a device may have. For example, a gatekeeper that is a manufacturer of a device can restrict access to some of the functionalities in that device, such as near-field-communication technology, secure elements and processors, authentication mechanisms and the software used to operate those technologies, which can be required for the effective provision of a service provided together with, or in support of, the core platform service by the gatekeeper as well as by any potential third-party undertaking providing such service.

> (57) If dual roles are used in a manner that prevents alternative service and hardware providers from having access under equal conditions to the same operating system, hardware or software features that are available or used by the gatekeeper in the provision of its own complementary or supporting services or hardware, this could significantly undermine innovation by such alternative providers, as well as choice for end users. The gatekeepers should, therefore, be required to ensure, free of charge, effective interoperability with, and access for the purposes of interoperability to, the same operating system, hardware or software features that are available or used in the provision of its own complementary and supporting services and hardware. Such access can equally be required by software applications related to the relevant services provided together with, or in support of, the core platform service in order to effectively develop and provide functionalities interoperable with those provided by gatekeepers. The aim of the obligations is to allow competing third parties to interconnect through interfaces or similar solutions to the respective features as effectively as the gatekeeper’s own services or hardware.

They are explicitly talking about gatekeepers that are both app maker and OS maker giving their own apps access to parts of the OS that other apps can't access. You as a 3rd party are able to deeply integrate into iOS with your own apps to the same level as 1st party apps. It does not say that anyone must be allowed to access the platform free of charge. Plus this is the preamble to the actual act, you can write whatever you want in there (and legislators frequently do to use it as a pulpit) none of this is the actual law.

For the relevant bit it's article 6 paragraph 7.
Nice, I've been waiting for this since it was announced around the start of the pandemic.

Ray Kurzweil was too worried to travel due to the risk of contracting covid-19.
Depending on who you ask, it's either centrist or slightly left. Ad Fontes calls it "middle"; allsides places it just barely to the left of center

That matches my understanding of the situation, though of course your mileage may vary.
Media looks worse on matte screens.
Indeed, to replace a brake you must remove it first; and better brake pads there are. Oerlikon of Switzerland has brake pad technology that has near zero emissions and does not need replacing. It’s not in production due to pressure for revenue from service shops.
> Basically everything?

Anything large and successful in the US economy should be forced into the public domain. /s

When do we break up ASML and Taiwan Semiconductor and force them to give all of their technology to the US with no compensation? They're large, successful, de facto monopolies. All of their IP should be forced into the public domain across the board.

The US needs to start hitting ASML with massive fines. 1/4 of their earnings perpetually should be a good start.

We should also very clearly be allowed to utilize all trademarks for any purpose and at any time, since we're obliterating intellectual property. I should be free to use the BMW and Mercedes names for anything I like, including in the auto sector to compete with them. They should not be allowed to have a monopoly over those brands, it restricts competition.
They likely make it better. I rarely use my brakes unless I have to brake suddenly.
Petition your representatives to designate those as gatekeepers of a core platform service. But first look up the definitions of those, and the criteria for gatekeeper designation, in the DMA.
The article still leaves off tire wear which is another way cars emit particles.
The builder uses OpenAPI spec to define and implement the API. The backend aims to do what "normal" backend does: fulfills requests by executing business logic (written as functions, a form of DSL) and querying database.

The very basic example of calculating average is just another type of "hello world" example. Separated frontend like a static html page can call API with an integer sequence and gets the average as the response.

But your example of processing a form resonates, because most of the webapps are represented as some sort of forms. I will work with it to further develop the DSL. Thank you for the suggestion!
proisreal, antiisarael, skepticism is always useful.
The danger with electric vehicles is actually that the break pad is in risk of rusting since you don't use it enough

In what way? If they're not getting a market offer from Google, they don't have to participate.
Worst case you can use laptop.
I don't understand why people seem to be disregarding highly related facts and are ignoring the fundamental nature of how or why the facts are related. Correlation does not imply causation, but when the facts are of the same substance, additional concern is warranted.
Also, African and European swallows...
I have a few group chats just that devolve into hours of sending stickers or image generation back and forth, lately we've been "writing a book together" with @Meta AI as the ghost writer, and while it utterly sucks, its been a hilarious shared experience.

I don't think anyone else has gotten that group chat with AI thing so nailed.
Yes, I've used GPT-4. The writing sounds better, but it still sucks at writing. Most importantly, it feels like it sucks just as much as GPT-3.5 in some deeply important ways.

If you use GPT-4 day-to-day, you've probably encountered this sense of a capability wall before. The point where additional prompting, tweaking, re-prompting simply doesn't seem to be yielding better results on the task, or it feels like the issue is just being shifted around. Over time, you develop a bit of a mental map of where the strengths and weaknesses are, and factor that into your workflows. That's what writing with LLMs feels like, compared to working with a professional writer.

Most writers have already realized that LLMs can't write in any meaningful way.
To be fair, this evolved naturally.

The TI calculators were progamable, my brother used those.

Then the pocket pcs (windows ce) had 3rd party programs, those were distributed as files by the publisher. Program stores were webpages were people sold their files. I used the skyscape medical books; you installed the program as usual, then you bought a code specific for your version and file. All that done through a webpage

Then we have android. Google had the Marketplace (now playstore) as we know it today, except packages didnt use google services to validate licenses, Many times it was just a package (a file) The main progress was ease of use.

Then comes iOS and their extreme BS of not being able to "sideload" "apps" The store is no longer a convenience, it is a requirement. For your safety, of course. The main "progress" here is that they convinced many "Americans" that a commodity affordable phone with a painted cartoon of a bitten apple is "Exclusive", as VIP only. I compare it to the NFT phenomena, except the fruit cartoon did stick.

I have a Bolt and the brake pads rarely get used. It's almost all regenerative braking, I would bet it's much better than ICE cars.
