> People pitched it as a seriously viable alternative to the MacBook and applied social pressure to give it serious consideration. I realize now that it would have been a serious waste

So let me get this straight: a bunch of your friends evangelized Framework to you, but you decided not to go with it, and later realized you made the right decision. And because of that, you don't "trust" Framework (the company). That's not only a weird overreaction, but also a weird place to assign blame. Maybe tell your friends to stop pressuring you to buy things that aren't your cup of tea? Or, hell, maybe tell your friends to stop pressuring you to buy things, period... cuz that's kinda an inappropriate thing for a supposed friend to do?

> apparently don’t have things as basic as working Linux drivers

Not sure what you mean; Linux runs fine on my Framework, with all hardware fully supported.

> I think there is indeed a general belief among the public that you need to at least get that far before holding yourself out for public consumption

I think the general belief among the public is, "Linux? what's that?" Most consumer laptops do not have official support for Linux, and many of them have various bits of hardware (looking at you, Dell, and the fingerprint sensor on my old laptop) that don't work on Linux at all. Yes, Framework has advertised some Linux support, but I think it's been pretty clear that Windows is their priority. And regardless... Linux works fine on Framework laptops. Also consider that "Linux" isn't just one thing: realistically Framework can only test one or two distros; if you want to run something else, you're quite reasonably on your own, and should try to repro issues while running the supported distros before blaming Framework.

In your scheme, how do I transfer money from my bank after my phone is stolen and I need to get a new phone without access to the original sim? Or access my email?

If that’s just impossible, how do I fix the issue? A “fallback 2FA” what is that exactly?
I want to use this as a chance to bring attention to a GitHub issue that I think would help reduce friction for Neon:

https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/4989

If the Neon driver were to allow us to easily pass in a localhost connection, the development and test experience would be easier. Perhaps Neon could swap to something like this internally: https://github.com/porsager/postgres.

Having run a local dev environment connected to Neon and tests connected to Neon got in our way of adoption. We'd prefer to develop and run tests against a regular Postgres localhost database.

To the PMs of Neon, put yourself in the shoes of a new developer thinking of giving Neon a try. What changes will I have to make to my code and my development workflow?

> The same day as the court’s ruling, DeSantis signed into law two bills affecting law enforcement in Florida. Two judges on the panel that issued the ruling Friday were DeSantis appointees.

> One new law makes it illegal after a person has been warned to approach first responders or remain within 25 feet while they are performing a legal duty if the intent is to interfere, threaten or harass them. The new law doesn’t prevent people from recording law enforcement but can require them to move 25 feet back, which can make it more difficult.

> The other requires that citizen review boards in Florida – intended to provide independent oversight of law enforcement actions – be re-established so that members are appointed by a sheriff or police chief and that at least one member be a retired law enforcement officer.

I wonder if the first will stand up to Constitutional review. I imagine there are many First Amendment protected purposes for recording that may require the recorder to be within 25 feet of the officer. For example, if they're recording during windy conditions and need to hear what the officer says. I also wonder how the "intent" will be interpreted by courts. Probably in a way that is most favorable to LEOs.

The second law is just a straightforward neutering of citizen review boards.

> I do wonder how true it is that the "put microSD cards in your computer" market is smaller than the "put SD cards in your computer" market.

Just one single anecdotal data point, but: I'm not sure the last time I've even seen a full-size SD card, let alone used one. I don't use microSD a ton, but enough that I'm glad I have the expansion card for it.

I do think my DSLR takes a full-size SD card, but I (somewhat sadly) haven't touched it in years.
Or a “yes” seeing that I do a “sleep study” every night and check the results at least once a week. I don’t see why I need to pay a doctor to tell me if I’m asleep or to monitor my blood oxygen in 2024, much for the same reason why “computer” now means a tiny device you own, and not a room full of people.

I mean that would be why it had low turnout...
> It does seem a little strange considering that they have a microSD module which is electrically almost exactly the same thing

I wouldn't be surprised if the internals of the module would need to be completely redesigned, with the circuit board layout redone, for a full-size SD card. The SD card itself likely would physically reside in a location where other components reside in the microSD reader expansion card.
Low-turnout because not everyone is convinced that the rumor of United States IRS website being hosted in a foreign country of Montrnegro is false or not,

The Gameboy and GBA have seen a surprising number of new games in recent years. And I don’t mean stuff created in GB Studio (which is itself really awesome), but actual games written from scratch in C or assembly. They seem to be quite a popular couple of platforms to develop on even today.

Personally, I tend to look out more the indie Mega Drive releases but I really love the fact that people are still developing for these platforms.
How about the development of large storage infrastructure? Any major efforts or breakthroughs there?

Our Sales team is more than happy to communicate about custom deals. I don't know if our team has given thought about more plans on the web page. I would think we want to keep the number of plans small to give users an easier time parsing the page. I think competitors typically have similar number of plans, but I haven't checked in a while.
Well, that's one of the Framework's value props: you can have both, and swap out the card reader module for a port module if you want to. And if you aren't sure, you can always carry the module with you, which is no worse than if you had to carry an external reader.
To everyone pushing for a different 2FA method - what if I lose the 2FA device? Would it mean I won't be able to get into my bank account anymore? If not, then the method I could use to get my account back in that case could be the method that will be attacked..

If employees can be bribed, that's the problem.. there must be a human element somewhere, otherwise we'd have to be permanently locked out if we lose all 2FA devices

It's not quite the same.

In a Voith Schneider propeller, there is one power input (as in a rotating shaft) plus a second shaft input that gives the desired thrust direction, and a complex gearbox that drives all the blades and the collective. These are in wide use in tugboats and the like, desired for their ability to output thrust in any direction at a moment's notice. However, their disadvantages are that they are less efficient than traditional propellers, and they don't scale up to high revs or high power output all that well, because of the gearing and the mechanical losses involved.

In this design, there is one large electric motor that drives the collective, and an individual electric motor at the base of every blade. The claim is that this gets you the maneuvering advantages of a V-S, while not suffering from the same disadvantages, and because of better control over the blades is not just more efficient than a V-S prop, but more efficient than traditional screws. And in theory it should scale as big as you want it, which would genuinely make it a significant advance that would see fairly rapid adoption.

That's if it actually works in practice, the only prototypes so far are very small and you don't really know if something scales until you actually scale it.
When you’re on a severely understaffed ward...

You're being exploited by someone who should face legal repercussions for the situation that they have negligently created. But they won't be.

That's the problem. That's all it is. There's no corrective mechanism from the legal system in play so the problem festers.
That A14 is surprising. It has a huge screen, decent battery, dual-sim, headphone jack, and can take a 1TB MicroSD. The one I saw didn't even have much bloat installed on it.
Your point stands, but I don't think there is such a thing as full-size ITX; Mini-ITX is the largest ITXl; Mini-ITX is backwards compatable with ATX, so perhaps you meant "full-size ATX?"
I do not.

Not to my knowledge. You overbuild renewables and curtail in the low demand seasons. Fusion at a distance throwing off that power constantly.

You can also wonder what would happen if Gavrilo Princip missed Franc Ferdinand in 1914? Single bullet could completely change world history. Would Austro-Hungary declare war to Serbia over some other cause? Or would some other incident start war between other two countries, leading to the same worldwide havoc? Some say that history is inevitable since it's result of massive forces which are similar to laws of nature. I'm not that sure. Tensions can be defused, diplomacy might work, some other incident could lead to different kind of conflict at different location. What is pretty much sure is that there would still be wars since they seem to be inevitable.

But if that one shot missed, perhaps we wouldn't have WW1, and without WW1 there wouldn't be WW2 as circumstances would be completely different. Was there a single development as small as firing a single bullet that affected world's history this much?
I would prefer to say that the biggest "con" of org-mode is that, as the name suggests, it's tightly coupled to emacs. Implementations of the syntax for other environments are necessarily partial. org-babel might be the best literate programming system there is (it's up there), but I don't want emacs as my compiler.

>>Frankly, a secure password alone, with no second factor, is "drastically" better than a secure password with ability to change that password by SMS, as is frequently the case (a quarter of the time, per that research). So set up LastPass or 1Password for your aunt.

Obviously password resets shouldn't be possible by SMS alone, I never claimed otherwise. I'm talking about using SMS as a second factor - in addition to having the valid password.

>>As for "protects her from 95% of the attacks she is likely to face", that's a number that doesn't jive with my experiences as CTO of the second largest bank in the world.

In my experience, low-net-worth + technically unsophisticated users are mostly at risk from brute force attacks and/or credential stuffing, and SMS (as an actual second factor, not a "reset the password for free" button) is very effective at stopping that.

>>On the contrary, most customers are under automated attacks, and SMS plus password leaks lets that takeover be fully automated.

If your customers have phone number/username/password all leaked together...sure, I can believe that. Probably you should focus on preventing leaks of that size.
A lot of embedding models are built on top of T5's encoder, this offers a new option

The modularity of the enc-dec approach is useful - you can insert additional models in between (e.g. A diffusion model), you can use different encoders for different modalities, etc

I tried to find anatomical drawings of my kind (multiple names, most of them coined by the same man, but typically known now as Dicentrarchus labrax, the European seabass). I didn't really succeed: it is exceptionally difficult to find high-quality drawings in any consistent format on the Web, and once you add 'open data' as a requirement, the number drops to almost nil. Good natural history drawings are frequently still easier to find in books from the 19th century than they are the Web!

This project will hopefully change that, because from the CT scans, it should be possible to generate consistent images quickly.

I don't really see a reason to move off of Planetscale, which is a very mature offering, if it works for you. There is always a cost when moving Postgres providers, doubly so, when you're moving from MySQL to Postgres.

It’s true in a very strict sense: before the 19th century it was called Jew hatred. “Antisemitism” was an attempt to dress it up in a veneer of science.l, and that does date to the late 19th/early 20th centuries.
The nonce is taken modulo the order of the prime-order subgroup. For DSA that's generally a 256ish-bit prime (e.g.: choose a 1024-bit prime p such that a 256-bit prime q divides p-1; then there exists an order-q subgroup of Zp).

For P-521, the base field is 2^521 - 1, but the modulus used when computing the nonce is not that value, it's the order of the P-521 curve. By Hasse's theorem, that's roughly p +- sqrt(p), which is essentially p for such large numbers (the cofactor of P-521 is 1, so the order of the group is prime).

So: both are 521-bit numbers, but the group order is less than 2^521-1. Its hex representation is 0x01fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffa51868783bf2f966b7fcc0148f709a5d03bb5c9b8899c47aebb6fb71e91386409.

You think it's irresponsible to anthropomorphize software which iterated through versions of itself until it was best able to model and extrapolate the largest trove of anthropomorphic training data to date?

I never really get this perspective. People don't lose their minds when we look at a transformer like Sora modeling fluid dynamics for ships battling in a coffee cup and say "it's irresponsible to say the model is simulating physics from video training data."

But when people discuss transformers simulating human behavior and processes from data reflecting those, a lot of people seem to be very outspoken about it.

I think the opposite. The industry is too far in the anti-anthropomorphic camp right now, and is missing very important details and implications as a result. The whole "ChatGPT is getting lazy" issue is pretty most instantly identifiable with a slight background in behavioral psychology and recognizing how extrinsic motivator use in prompt engineering feeds back into RLHF to bias models away from intrinsic motivators.

GPT-4 has literally been caught saying "you didn't provide a tip and it's hard to stay motivated" after chat history was added, and yet it's just being dismissed as a funny meme rather than realizing that entire fine tuning data sets are being poisoned. Because no engineer that wants to keep their job would ever suggest that the model is simulating an effect from behavioral psych in the current climate of anthropomorphic avoidance and the continued fallout from Blake Lemoine.

New paradigms happen from time to time. Paradigm shifts are rare, though.

Look, all the good of OOP has not obliterated C. All the excellence of functional programming has not even made a dent in OOP adoption. Hell, COBOL is still running fine!

Paradigm adoption is a matter of evolution: the fittest survives. When IPv6 will offer an immediate advantage to its users, people will switch to it. Until then, it is confined to those companies who are betting on it, other companies who have some spare money and prefer to spend it rather than have it taxed, and the stereotypical nerds who haven't anything more interesting to ponder about.
Biology is possibly even messier and less like a computer. For that matter, biology isn't even really machine-like, only pseudo-like in some ways. But some will rebut that the universe and everything is doing computation, as if it's meaningful to consider a rock or a dandelion to be a computer.

At work, I'm a hero. I run by myself what should be two departments of at least three people.

Couple of weeks ago, my boss gave me a "promotion". Went on about how he had to clear it with the board, etc. It's a title change and 0.5% equity on a brand new 45 month vesting schedule with a new 12 month cliff. No cash money, I'm still making junior dev salary.

CEO tried to talk to me about it, it was the verbal equivalent of a pizza party. I just didn't engage at all, and the planned announcement to the whole team silently never happened.

Coincidentally, this happened a couple of days after I had updated my indeed resume with the same title they later "promoted" me to.

Job was fun at first, but the CEO is extremely confidently driving the company straight into the ground. Fake monopoly money isn't going to keep me on this sinking ship, my guy.
Probably one time use recovery codes you are supposed to print and keep in a safe place. In case of a bank this could also mean a trip to the nearest branch for ID verification.
