They are deliberately targeting civilians based on nebulous association knowing they will kill up to 20 others without even that thin justification.

There is absolutely reason to believe such missions could range from 10-50 civilians to one actual soldier.

They are claiming kills as justified that never received human vetting. Even the kills that would be lawful are by any reasonable analysis fruits of a poisonous tree.

Done at scale its hardly different than running a gas chamber.

I teach electronics and programming at an art school/university. One trend I have noticed is that young people have increasingly unrealistic expectations how difficult certain things are. I blame DIY youtube/tiktok for this — you know the kind where it looks very simple, as if it takes a minute and boof you have a cool thing.

I often have to explain to them why the thing that they saw working for 2 seconds in that tiktok clip will likely not work unattended for their full day exhibition weekend.

But those are some people from that generation, there are just as many that just want to learn and don't want to take shortcuts.

I agree however that overestimating your own abilities is a generic trait of you g people regardless of generation — but that is how they learn — how we all learned.
Thank you for repeating what I said. If these features are: “carrying weapon” or “visiting known Hamas military site” - then the risk of unintended bias is lower.

If the features are things like “wears a scarf” or “has a beard” then I agree unintended bias is likely a problem. But given we don’t know. How can we comment?

Exxon are not making credible, persistent efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions so screw them.

However articles like this propagate the illusion that it's somebody else's fault and therefore not our problem. It's our problem. We are consuming all of this oil and gas through the services and products we use. We still want those services and products but we're not accepting the responsibility for it.
> ... but his narrative on the Chinese experience in America is very unconvincing.

That depends. As an Indian, I got the impression that his target audience were right-leaning / Republican Americans. Look at the political values he covers - gun rights ("More guns, good!", "Texas better than California"), importance of religion ("going to church, conversion"), racial issues ("Black Lives Matter is indoctrination; Blacks harass Chinese", "white people are nicer"), capitalism ("students running small business") and of course, America is land of free. Sometimes articles like this are helpful - perhaps some Republicans reading this may feel Chinese immigrants are not so bad if they are attracted to Republican values and likely to become Republicans. ;)
Pretty sure they counted on it and for the Israelis to rush in and get mauled like in Lebanon. Did not work though they took their time instead.
I have an answer, but I'm not sure you'll find it particularly fulfilling because it is quite hypothetical.

The average user just needs to be able to ask the question in a decent place. E.g., Hacker News or a fitting Stack Exchange site. Some developers not afraid of touching the kernel will see the question (or one like it), and if no workaround (e.g. truncation) is found to be acceptable, someone may decide to look into the kernel source to see if it's feasible at all. They may find a lower level function that deletes without writing metadata. Or they may find the function in the filesystem driver's source code where the metadata is written first, and if that was successful, the actual data is written. In the easiest case, you could create a copy of the function with the calls swapped, and a live CD with the modified driver could be created. (Course, this solution is quite unsafe, as writing the metadata could still fail for some other or related reason, so it's a bit of an emergency solution.)

There are two other filesystems that were mentioned in the discussion here, btrfs and ZFS.

ZFS solved the problem by reserving space, so creating such a tool isn't needed. (However, ZFS is not part of Linux, so I'm not too interested in digging into the details.)

btrfs users apparently accept this as a fact-of-life, but have what they consider decent-enough workarounds, see e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/btrfs/comments/ibjrpm/can_i_somehow....

(I use neither ZFS nor btrfs; I prefer boring filesystems, thank you very much.)
this is such BS argument, before guns you could still kill people but it'd take a lot more effort & organization to kill en-masse. same deal if you apply this logic to nukes or missiles. yes those people should be held responsible but there should be a systematic regulation of AI-robot killing machines just like we have geneva accords for cluster munitions or unusually cruel weapons. this is just common sense 101.
Your own quote directly contradicts your assertion.
> So basically GenZ realized that a company is not your friend, they can fire you the moment you are not valuable. I feel sorry for older generations that let themselves be exploited, there's no point in being loyal to a company.

Millenials and especially Gen X had a lot of things easier. You could get some stable job and coast and do fine in the economy 20-30 years ago. I think your sympathies for the way us gens X/Y approached jobs 10 years ago is misdirected (though I suspect a lot of Millenials, especially those such as myself who aren't highly compensated, are taking a more individualistic approach to their careers now as well)

Gen Z is out here trying to survive and they've gotten an incredibly raw deal, I'd sympathize with them instead.
Vast majority of the developed/civilized world has moved on from capital punishment, with a few exceptions like the US. We still execute people in this country and find out many years later that they were innocent.

Isn’t the appraisal offer they got an actual real offer to buy the car right there on the spot for cash from the appraisal company? If that’s the case then it’s not really a fair offer. It’s an offer the appraisal company is confident it can safely make a profit on through subsequent resale.
I share the same feelings and I live in Europe. It seems to me that people that are against suburbs either have lived in the city since childhood and given our current culture these people are very much a majority, on the web at least. What they also don't understand that you don't need a car to go to the store. I live in the suburbs after many years having lived in the city and our family shares a single car, but we also use bicycles extensively.
The criminal that hides under color of law while killing far more innocents is more odious on multiple fronts. Dead children and austere serious men walking through their blood reeking of offal and rightiousness is a disturbing contrast.

The US ought to disassociate ourselves forever from such undepentant criminals.

A while back you commented on my personal project Airdraw which I really appreciated. This looks awesome and you're well on your way to another banger project - looking forward to toying around with this :)
It was only ever worth 21K to begin with and the real trick was convincing you otherwise.

See, cars have been in a bubble for the last 8 years because a negative real interest rate drove the existence of $70K SUVs/trucks and $40K cars in the first place. Which is why used cars sometimes exceed the price of new cars, and why people expect minimal depreciation from new vehicles today.

And sure, I'd buy a Fisker Ocean for 21,000 dollars; parts aren't going to be a concern because all the EV fans tell me they're basically maintenance free and will definitely never need soon-to-be-unobtanium suspension parts (which aren't really wear parts in the same way tires and brakes are) or a fix for that tilting screen gimmick.

Did they not get the car? I don't understand.

If the car really is unfit for purpose, then the resale value is irrelevant - the manufacturer has to take it back and exchange it for a working car or refund it. But it's unlikely they'll do it without a lawsuit. (I also find the idea of trying to offload your non-working car on someone foolish enough to buy it on the resale market unethical.)
In general German is much more verbose than English. Compound words can sometimes shorten sentences, however the English dictionary has significantly more vocabulary (see comparisons between Shakespeare and Goethe for example). In German you use causal sentences. Because of that German texts are typically much longer than the English originals, e.g. IIRC the goblet of fire was 150 pages longer in english

This isn't quite right, linked lists and trees in functional languages can be represented extremely succintly, i.e.

data List a = Nil | Node a (List a)
data Tree a = Leaf a | Node (Tree a) (Tree a)

there is nothing stopping you from writing something like this in JS

const list = { kind: 'node', val: 3, next: { kind: 'nil' } };

And then using a switch case to navigate the list/tree matching on the kind field.
That is concerning even if you don't have some lunatics trying to kill you right now.

IMSI seems like a thing that need to be mitigated. We need a FOSS mobile yesterday. Especially when Elon Musk puts cell towers everywhere and most likely give our locations to Washington and by extension Netanyahu.
I can't read the news because it's so upsetting to watch the world allow a naked genocide, or discuss it with my family. The 7 Nov terrorist attack was disgusting, and since then Israel has proved to the entire world, beyond anyone's remaining doubt,that they are a disgusting nation.

While I did not succeed in making the matmul code from https://github.com/Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile/blob/main/llamafil... work in isolation, I compared eigen, openblas, and mkl: https://gist.github.com/Dobiasd/e664c681c4a7933ef5d2df7caa87...

In this (very primitive!) benchmark, MKL was a bit better than eigen (~10%) on my machine (i5-6600).

Since the article https://justine.lol/matmul/ compared the new kernels with MLK, we can (by transitivity) compare the new kernels with Eigen this way, at least very roughly for this one use-case.
It's a national ISP, and not a small one. And no, IPs are not static and dynamically allocated each time I connect.
I wonder how those generations managed to have houses and children in their 20s.
Let me rephrase, storage capacity with respond to dynamic/shared libraries hasn't been relevant for over a decade.

AAA video games have massive storage requirements primarily due to textures, and sometimes audio. Which is a totally different conversation. It's not a bunch of redundant static libraries causing your pain.

$100 will get you an 8Tb spinning drive or a 1Tb SSD or possibly 2TB. You can also get an external SSD for the same price. Large game sizes is a real and annoying issue. But even 4 year old consoles launched with a 1Tb SSD.
Correct, but it can be a pivotal part in investing in one's financial future.

Hard pass. You will likely need ongoing support from the manufacturer. A Tesla is probably not indefinitely supported and might need security and other updates to properly function, for remote operations, navigation, entertainment etc.
I became a dad this year, and I've long been thinking that the perfect LLM startup idea really could be centered around collecting data as an insurance policy against dying.

At least my family members might have some version of me to consult with if I kicked the bucket.

> maybe if you were using an open-source operating system you could, with a little experience, write a simple tool that deletes a couple files without allocating new metadata

For a filesystem where this happens, it would not be simple and it would require a lot of experience to get right.

> Or more likely, somebody else would have been there before you and you could just use their tool.

I don't think open-source makes such a tool much more likely to exist.
>Millenials and especially Gen X had a lot of things easier.

I'm curious what years you think this applies to.
I don't share this experience. I've been running Time Machine for years now on a Samba share for multiple Macs and if anything I've only seen an improvement. Years back I would regularly get a corrupted Time Machine sparse bundle that had to be recreated (or I would restore a previous ZFS snapshot and it would continue of off that), but it also ran over AFP back then I think, not SMB. Lately I've not have had any of these issues on any of the machines. I do have specific flags enabled in the smb.conf file that are recommended for Time Machine backups.

This method of elinination can only be carried out via a Holocaust. Killing half the 2M citizens won't eliminate Hamas it will recruit 3 generations as justified in their violence as Israel.

Does the resale value of the civic you bought have any relevance in your story?
That is almost all assets and has almost nothing to do with static vs shared. In fact, making things shared usually makes them worse, because you miss out on WPLTO.
It is interesting to see how cell phone data was used as features and inputs to the model (along with other surveilance data). And how the models parameters were adjusted to achieve high leves of correlation. Human behavior regarding sharing cell phones apeared to create a false postive bias. Its too late now but the first thing the entire Palestinian population should have done was to smash all thier phones and go completely dark.
You can find interviews with commanders and soldiers about it on israeli television as well.

The reason the Guardian now uses "linked to" instead of "responsible for" (which Oxfam used half a decade ago and got ridiculed for years for) is precisely because of what you call "whataboutism" (which it really isn't).

Your reply uses a strawman, the argument has never been that a company has less influence than a single customer. The argument is that a company is very often (unless it is a complete monopoly over a non-substitutable good) not as powerful as the consumers (as a group).

Companies can do some of the work, but the only reason they're not going bankrupt is because millions of consumers tell them everyday "we need your products, we don't want to change our behavior".
I am currently working on an app with React Native that helps users play along to songs and one of the features needed was displaying the various scales/modes on the fretboard so I basically built a mini library of my own to construct the note arrays.

This will be a great example to see how the library has handled the same problem.
Reminds me of when a customer's database kept crashing with an error code indicating the disk was full. Except Windows Explorer showed the disk having hundreds of gigs free...

Took us a little while to figure out that the problem was the database file was so fragmented NTFS couldn't store more fragments for the file[1].

What had happened was they had been running the database in a VM with very low disk space for a long time, several times actually running out of space, before increasing the virtual disk and resizing the partition to match. Hence all the now-available disk space.

Just copying the main database file and deleting the old solved it.

Wonderful work!

is it possible to make it only use a subset of the web? (Only sites that I trust and think are relevant to producing an accurate answer), and are there ways to possibly make it work offline on pre installed websites? (wikipedia, some other wikis and possibly news sites that are archived locally), and how about other forms of documents? (books and research papers as pdfs)
You keep frontend UI changes that don't affect state in the frontend. If you don't need the server then you don't waste your user's time with trips to the server. If you need server, you can do things on the frontend at the same time you send the request, e.g. hide something, add/remove a class.
Boycotting doesn't make any sense, it's not possible, we can't boycott the foundations of our own current economy. It's our economy, we need to take responsibility for it. The fossil fuels companies definitely need more heavy regulation, but they're also powering our civilization. That's on us. Articles like this encourage the myth that this isn't our fault and we can safely blame some bad guys, feel smug and carry on because it's their fault, not ours.

We need to persistently transition in a co-ordinated and disciplined way, and we need to do it faster. We need to do it. Individually, politically, economically.
As a Gen Zer myself, parts of this rubbed me the wrong way in the sense that it feels like many gen X/boomers are applying the mindset that got them their success in their early life is still relevant today.

We've become jaded growing up in a world that is increasingly difficult to live in - in my home country we have massive cost of living increases, ever-nascent climate change, housing shortages and income inequality, aging population combined with policy changes that make life better for the boomer generation.

Many of my peers have given up hope that they will ever be able to buy their own home. We're stressed, lonely, and are a generation of test subjects to big-tech's addiction machines.

Working in tech has it's benefits and I am lucky to not be faced with many of these issues personally, but I know plenty of people my age and younger that have gone past the stage of "terrified for the world their kids will grow up in" and into a numb subsistence.
Well it would be interesting to have the numbers, to know how important it is to focus on defending uploads from CI vs uploads from developer machines.

It requires the creation of a non-scoped token first, to do that. And since people are lazy I'd bet many have not created a scoped token. Again, this is supposition from my part that could be verified or proven wrong by you.
