Never tell a search engine or LLM anything you wouldn't say in public.

Nothing is anonymous. If you want true privacy you'd probably need to run your LLM locally AND airgap it.

For a long time I worked at a client driven development shop, and we picked up lots of codebases from other developers. There were apps in PHP, Java, .NET. All of them were buried in technical debt. You can take any programming language and build a project buried in technical debt.
The Vietnamese newspapers are actually using dollars for their local audience for this case when written in Vietnamese.

The actual number in VND is hard to reason about, even for the vietnamese locals. When 1 million VND is 40 dollars, that's not helping.
I think one problem you have considering this function in isolation is that it doesn't do everything inet_aton does --- for instance, it doesn't handle hex addresses.
Why do we blame this on medical lobbies when it appears to be the same issue across the board for funding state education departments?
Right, we have the extractor that vents everything inside. The only sane way to cook is to open the kitchen windows (which we luckily have plenty of).
I'm of the firm opinion that advertising is snake oil. But even if you do believe that advertising causes demand, it doesn't follow that we would see a significant decrease in demand if advertising was gone. If advertising hypothetically increases demand by 5%, that's not going to make that much of a difference when it's gone.

> If your distro is configured to assume everything under sbin requires elevated privileges, then I wager that would minimise the attack surface (I'm assuming sbin is treated as superuser owned binaries, not just as static binaries).

I read this sentence several times, and I don't know what you mean. Some of the files in /usr/sbin are setuid-root (which, frankly, makes no sense -- traditionally, /usr/sbin isn't in non-root users' PATHs), but most are just plain executable files. The mere presence of those files in a place where non-root users could execute them is not an attack surface at all. They're just a bunch of bytes until someone executes them, and even then, executing them conveys no privilege that the caller of execve() didn't already have.

(Unless you're running something like SELinux, in which case it's the job of whoever wrote the policy to make sure that the labels are appropriate.)

I thought the article did a very good job of explaining why the term 'grokking' was used to describe this emergent behavior, and how it fit Heinlein's original definition. I'm curious which part of their explanation you feel is incorrect.
Agreed. I’ll take a more controversial stance that I’ve said here before: CSS/HTML are part of the problem and the community should have invested in proper UI/rendering frameworks a long time ago that weren’t designed around the quirks of HTML and CSS. Building an accessible canvas-based UI with a React-like API would make a lot more sense for SPAs, and maybe other types of websites too.
Very good quote. “Data” is not conclusive , it’s just one piece of evidence. Usually it’s a noisy observation , with even noisier statistics applied.

People think “data” is the conclusion, when in fact it’s just a signal to ask more questions.

I'm a big fan of both Redis and SQLite, so I decided to combine the two. SQLite is specifically designed for many small queries[1], and it's probably as close as relational engines can get to Redis, so I think it might be a good fit.

The Swiss don’t typically install larger washer/dryer units. We have tiny units with ventless dryers. Maybe the smaller units are more ecological to manufacture? In USA, I can do a load of laundry + drying in 90min. In Switzerland, it takes about 4-5h. I fail to see how 5h of energy usage can be more ecological than a bit of steam exiting the home.
Somehow many people already "took a side" to defend online as fanatics. This is a product of an hyperconnected world that doesn't allow people to stop and think deeply. The internet's an ever-changing flow of emotions and memes.
It is true in some fields and in large corporations and especially in former public and semi public corporations. However in computer engineering startups for example, solving technical tests and/or a nice GitHub can open you the same doors as an engineering degree.

There are very elite engineering schools (mostly l'école polytechnique and the ENS which in kind of another beast) which are so selective that people from there are IMO in a different league from other engineers (not necessarily in a good way btw)

Not quite the same thing but I subscribed to one of my team's code review email lists. I also cc'ed myself on bug reports. Mildly interesting but didn't really impact anything although I was always looking for signals in the noise.

On the other hand, my boss had a de facto policy of visiting each remote office at least once a year and conducting one-on-one meetings face-to-face as much as possible. I found this useful for myself to understand the team/environment/product and good for building connections with people, especially when cultures are significantly different.

It did result in my visiting Wuhan 16 times between 2012 and 2019, for better or worse.
Even if react is made for SPAs (which is a murky definition anyway) there are many parts of react that make general website development better. For example dependency management is way easier and maintainable with npm/react than manually importing scripts in the right order the traditional way. Achieving high levels of interactivity is also much easier for the same reason.

Just because react was built for one things doesn't inherently mean its wrong to use it for other things.

I just meant that Google is focusing more on their AndroidTV/GoogleTV way of doing things (apps on the TV) than continuing working towards casting from mobile devices onto the TV.

This lack of focus on Casting is certainly causing it feel like it is becoming obsolete. For instance many Android apps now have bugs when it comes to casting (stuttering video or the cast button only showing up when restarting the app).
The only reason why anything is regulated is because society decided that the consequences of not regulating it produce undesirable outcomes for too many people in said society.

This is decidedly the case with ISPs today, so arguments over the pedantic definition of monopolies and whether it applies here are rather irrelevant.

Their test cases don’t include alternative ipv4 representations, e.g 127.1 is a valid IP address.

Since condos typically don’t have a per-unit HVAC system, the heating is managed centrally for the entire building. In winter time, it’s always too hot (in every building I have lived in), so we have to cool down our unit!

Apparently, the central heating system takes ~24h to heat up (floor based, heated water pump), so they can’t adjust the temperature on an hourly/daily basis (it’s set and forget).
And the complaints hold less and less water each year.

In 2015, people were still complaining about trying to build stable layouts using CSS. Congratulations, we now have Grid and Flexbox (and subgrids just stabilized!) but they still complain. They complain about having to write custom Javascript (which is slow and has to be maintained) so functionality gets pushed into CSS and they complain that CSS is getting too complicated.

There were people complaining about the "Javascript framework of the week". Then React took over the space, and now they complain about how everything's written for React and we should just use htmx and Svelte. I thought we didn't want something new every week!

There were people complaining that Webpack was slow and required too much up-front configuration. Then Vite came out (which is fast and only requires minimal configuration) and they went back to complaining about having to learn new things.

The best explanation I can come up with is that most organizations must just treat FE as an afterthought and assign people to do that work who have no experience or interest in it.
This looks like a good use case for ScyllaDB with Compression and TTL. It is pretty simple to setup a single-node instance.

If you rather have something in-process and writes to disk, to avoid extra infrastructure, I would also recommend RocksDB with Compression and TTL.

My local hospital just had a bit of a freak out a year or two ago, and laid people off, and cut back on services because they had a $13m salary shortfall. They are the busiest ER on the west coast. in 2019-20 (right before covid), they pad $140M cash for a new tower building, and they still have a $1B 'rainy day fund'.

Is it commonplace for laptops to not allow disabling Secure Boot? I work with desktops and big iron; it's entirely optional here.

Even in clouds - it's optional based on your compliance goals/requirements. 90% of the time it's KVM/QEMU with an API. Secure boot isn't slowly taking that scene over either, it's still optional support.

I really don't get the impression that we're losing control over our boot processes. We use the things signed by MS because it's convenient and the average user can't be bothered to do their own enrollment.

I see how this can be "boiling the frog", in a sense, but it's a bit close to conspiracy for me.

Unfortunately, interpreting "CC-BY-NC" as a software license, I think you'd be pirating if you used the linked models for anything you might sell.

(Bergamot is BY-SA, but I think the virality would only apply to derivative models and not model outputs, whereas Facebook's NonCommercial clause might apply to usage of the original model itself, as it usually does in software licenses.)
Given that we're talking about eukaryotes here, you can't just sprinkle some modified DNA on it and expect it to start executing that code (like you can with bacteria, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformation_(genetics) ). So patching the organism with the code for the new organelle requires some kind of vector, like a virus or CRISPR. If such a thing were to be surprisingly widely applicable across species and also escape the lap, I suppose it could update more than just the desired plant.

Given that some other nutrient would then become the bottleneck, I think this would be ok though. You'd just have upgraded plant growth, which would mean locking carbon into biomass at an increased rate, which might be kinda helpful around now.

Would it have unintended consequences? Probably. Would they be worse than the unintended consequences of industry? Maybe not.

Does your understanding of reasoning consist solely of the dichotomy "every position is either a QED or a strawman"?
I enjoy soviet-era rock, which wasn't really a thing until the 1980s, but to better understand its context, I've sampled a fair number of 1970s VIAs as well.

The strangest thing happened while I was watching Частное пионерское 2 (set in 1979, including computer printed samizdat): a song I knew came on in the background, and I had a very strong nostalgic sensation, as if I had just heard "Heart of Glass" as diegetic music — but for music I'd never heard before this century and YouTube (2005).
In order to own a dog it's strongly recommended to follow a dog owner's course and then pay a yearly dog tax.

Because of very complicated things like needing to maintain sterile rooms too. Educating people is important, but hospitals are inherently prone to spreading infections. If everyone behaved flawlessly, they would still have this problem.

Honestly, I can't understand the bias from modern medicine of interning people into them.

Have you noticed the situation is about digital services? In older times it was required to collect some coins or papers in enough quantity for make the driver start.

> Despite how crucial it is, it's hard to find a service that has all the features you need for a successful product.

> That's why we built Stack.

I’m not convinced this is a strong USP. One could make a decent argument “Stack” doesn’t have “all” the features (yet) - I’ve seen the roadmap.

Firebase, Superbase etc. arguably have more features.

In a nutshell, I think it might be better to have that paragraph really drive home the USP of the product e.g., open source accountability, fairer pricing model etc.

Those are strong tells, instead of the “all the features” narrative. That’s a hard battle to win :)

Regardless, awesome work! And congrats on the launch

I just read the Wikipedia on that.

No.

Currently when you get an iot device you usually connect to it through the smartphone, tell it your Wi-Fi hotspot, give it the password and have it go online.

Instead there could be a flow of going to the routers interface, select "scan new qr code" and you add the device that way - more realistically this would be done through the "myspectrum" or equivalent app as the isp usually issues the modem/hotspot for the majority of consumers.

A number of things would have to change to make that possible but it's a much easier setup flow and it likely requires less complex software on the device itself.
