Hardware is hard. We would have happily done this as a native iPhone or Watch app if it were possible. We explored that first. But, unfortunately both iOS and watchOS don't support it. In particular, anytime you listen to audio (a YouTube video, phone call, etc) it turns off the microphone and you have to remember to turn it back on.

Because not everybody thinks it's mediocre or downright ugly. You ain't the whole world, your personal judgements are not absolute truths that determine reality. So it's getting better for the people who enjoy it. Your negativity about it notwithstanding.

Why would I want to use windows?

I am not a gamer and I don’t find .net or anything adjacent interesting. I don’t run anything on windows.

So no I wouldn’t ever use windows because I don’t care for it.

I’ve also never worked somewhere where we didn’t use Macs.

> narcissistic people who were utterly twisted by their caregivers as children

Please don't be too quick to blame parents - remember we used to blame autism on refrigerator mothers: https://en-wp.org/wiki/Refrigerator_mother_theory -- society tends to victimise mothers and without knowing the people involved nasty stereotypes are unhealthy.

Mayo clinic says:

Although the cause of narcissistic personality disorder isn't known, some researchers think that overprotective or neglectful parenting may have an impact on children who are born with a tendency to develop the disorder.

That is: parenting can be a cause but please don't jump to the harmful generalisation that parenting is always the cause.

I’m gonna doubt they’re operating AI on encrypted cloud data. In other words, there’s no technical reason they couldn’t be listening to your conversations.

If these guys have accomplished homomorphic encryption they shouldn’t be building a wearable, they should be licensing their IP to Apple.
I can make mine go away temporarily (as in a minute or so) by sticking my fingers in my ears and jiggling them around to make a lot of noise for 10 seconds. I suspect it's just the contrast, but it is really nice to have something resembling real silence.

A few years back I got a bad wax buildup in one ear and stopped hearing anything. After they took the wax out, my ear was hypersensitive for a day or so. I heard every little rustle, shifting in my chair, even fabric moving when I moved my arm.

A lot of telemetry can become personal data. Filenames etc. are the easy parts.

Telemetry needs to be motivated for it to not be considered spyware. You need to really consider what you are logging and why, and then, is it worth the downsides.

It is not something to take lightly, hardly "no harm".

When you get down to it, most security measures are ultimately based around creating enough delay that someone can respond with violence.

P.S.: Trying to think of the rare examples that don't qualify, and so far:

1. Direct violent response, e.g. booby-traps.

2. Denial by destroying whatever the attacker wanted, or delaying them enough that time renders it valueless.

3. Denial by making the effort unprofitable, even with no hard time limits.
That's why we are going to offer Consent Mode.

Consent Mode makes it possible for the first time ever to only capture the voice of people who have given consent to be recorded.

It uses voice identification to determine who is speaking and verbal opt-in to make it frictionless to ask for consent.

Well in my game everything inherits from GameObject. GameObject has a draw method. Enemies, coins, the player, doors, they're all GameObjects. But when it comes to drawing things, the logic doesn't vary by those subtypes. Rather some things are pixel art with a collection of frame by frame animations. Other things are just a static image. Some things I render as text. Some things are really complex, I render them as composable components with different frames of animation/keyframes, created in a custom character editor program. Each of those render modes I described is a different DrawObject. So instead of having an insanely complex inheritance hierarchy of all permutations of things and how they are drawn (or trying multiple inheritance), I have GameObjects and they contain an property/object of type DrawObject. I have a shallow inheritance hierarchy of GameObjects and a shallow inheritance hierarchy of DrawObjects. And I can compose them together as I see fit.

I even have an AggregateDrawObject class for cases where I need to run two animations at once for a single object.

You can do something similar with UpdateObjects too and have composable behavior.

Note that I still use inheritance, but just don't let it get out of control. Anyone saying "inheritance is bad" is either a moron or really means "deep inheritance hierarchies are bad" or maybe "bad designs are bad".
> That was in Sweden, which has naming laws. The US does not have similar laws.

The US doesn't have the same sort of naming laws that are common in European countries, but there are state-specific limits around what you can have in a legal name.

Specifically, in California, you cannot have diacritic marks in a name, which is part of why people were shocked that Musk was able to name his child X Æ A-12, when someone named Ramón Núñez will have their legal name as "Ramon Nunez" in California.

I've had a mental visualization I've used to control tinnitus flares for about 20 years now - i.e., "biofeedback".

I image the entire soundscape (what I'm possible of hearing) as a long, thin line which is warbling a bit, as I'm hearing things right now -- like the line in an oscilloscope. The present tinnitus represents itself as a sharp spike in this visualization, the location dependent upon its texture (sharp pings, or a low muffled warble).

I then imagine a giant hand (my hand) on top of that spike, pushing it down, slowly, and as I push it down, the tinnitus subsides (since I know what that subsiding sensation feels like). Sometimes I have to do this pushing motion a few times before the spike slowly attenuates by itself and it joins the surrounding levels.

The entire process takes about 30 seconds, and doesn't work every time. If after a few attempts it fails, I abandon the visualization exercise (lest my brain somehow learns the pushing motion to be ineffective).

It's not entirely clear to me how / why this works: mapping a physical phenomenon onto an abstract mental visualization / picture, and then manipulating that mental picture and thus the physical phenomenon.

I'm also very musical, so these sorts of visualizations tend to come very naturally to me.

It's a trade off. More transmission lines means less overbuilding and less storage. Really it's an optimization problem that will be solved on a case by case basis given geography and so on.
Best to speak specifically of England (and Wales), some of the UK's countries have different laws.

Yes, "X degree Murder" isn't a thing in the English system and the sentence for Murder will be life imprisonment (what Americans might call "indeterminate" life because you can get parole)

England used to have an oddity where the Home Secretary (ie a government minister, a politician) gets to decide whether some people can be paroled. As you might expect it's not popular politically to parole famous criminals and so certain people regardless of how long ago the crime was committed and other circumstances were refused parole. The Supreme Court eventually concluded this isn't justice, and took away this power. In their ruling (which I fixed a typo in) they looked at a whole suite of interesting cases where people were currently basically facing life with no possibility of parole

1. They decided they need to pick the worst possible criminal circumstance and single that out for this punishment, as punishment is all it is, any other possible purpose isn't circumvented by the existing parole institution - if we want people to show remorse, to accept what they did and why it's wrong, to be useful in their community, or whatever - stuff like that is already what parole is for.

2. They decided that circumstance should be two more separate murders. So e.g. you kill Bill with a hammer, and his wife walks in on you, she tries to intervene, you struggle and stab her, that is two murders, but it's not two separate murders, you could still be paroled some day. Whereas if you've got a habit of hiring prostitutes and then murdering them to relieve stress after a long week at work, those are separate murders, so if you get convicted for two (or more) that's life-means-life.

3. A lot of the really awful people whose cases were front of them haven't committed two separate murders. But, they point out, just because the law doesn't refuse these people the possibility of parole now that a politician doesn't get to decide, it doesn't magically mean they're granted parole. Paroling the guy who just really likes raping old ladies isn't going to happen. He's not even remorseful, he still wants to do it again, so obviously we can't let him out of prison, but we don't need to change his sentence - he's already going to be in prison for the rest of his life anyway.

This reminds me of the situation for Anders Breivik. He killed a whole bunch of kids, but in his country the maximum was 21 years. But Breivik is never getting out, he still believes what he did was good. So in effect it's exactly the same as life-means-life for him, it only makes a difference where it should, for the people who change.

[Edited to fix Breivik's sentence, which I had previously mistakenly believed was Life, in fact it's 21 years and they'll just extend it as necessary until he's dead or stops being a Nazi terrorist]
Totally secondary, but we could solve this by not giving the revenue rights for pubic good (parking meters, expressways, etc) to private companies which then have random toll websites. Just saying.

> the sort of thing that once you give up, you're not getting back

We could get it back. But we don’t care about it.

I know staffers on a handful of House and Senate staff. Nobody could understand why Judiciary was taking up this cause, because when you look at call sheets, the voters who care about privacy don’t tend to call and don’t tend to vote. (Large crossover between the lazy and/or nihilists and the privacy conscious.) That pattern bore out here, and eventually, was used to grind down the dissidents.

Hell, I didn’t bother calling about it, and my Congresswoman was trying to build a coalition for. I’m keeping my ear to the ground in case a wave of heightened give-a-shit comes through. But it strikes me there are better issues to spend time on.
100%, and I have a ton of respect for how he thinks about work. While I can't bring myself to do the multiple FTE positions thing, I've spent half my career doing freelance/consulting work for multiple clients at once, and I love the mindset since I feel like it gets to the core of what "work" is.

In a lot of ways the "overemployment" thing comes down to treating full-time jobs like agency clients. Which I'm all for in theory and I'm a lot happier when I'm working with clients instead of employers. But I can't personally handle the dishonesty required.

I don't understand the motivation behind such a question. We sell cars because the benefits to motor transportation outweigh the safety risks in aggregate. That aggregate tradeoff is nonresponsive to the singular case of YOLOing avoidable risks on a Tesla.
I wonder if instead of shrinking the text geometrically when zoomed out, you could shrink it semantically (with a LLM or something similar) as in the wikipedia image ZUI example. Of course this would require an enormous amount of pre-processing to get multiple levels of zoom shrinkage.

That's not how the GPL works, though.

He's including GPL-ed code, which means he must make his own code available under the GPL (without additional restrictions) as well.

Of course he can make his code (and only his code) alone also available under a more or less restrictive license, but anybody would be free to ignore all additional restrictions and just follow the GPL.
> then hold down the power button

on APCI computers, the power button is software-controlled, i.e. it sends a signal to the OS, if the OS is currently frozen (or is configured to ignore it), pressing the power button does nothing. But to override this, if you hold it for about four seconds, a hardware shutdown still happens (is it done by the motherboard?). There are also other functions, like holding the power button for 30 seconds to enter into recovery mode on iPhones.

I wonder if holding the power button on a running EV car does anything similar...
In the long run we want all these operations to fail. It’s sad that people will be hurt as these criminal bosses see their groups stop being able to steal, but it’s better than more people being recruited into them. That’s in addition to the good of preventing thefts.
>nd whether a piece of information has the potential to harm someone must, at least in a democratic society, balance with other rights such as the freedom of speech, conscience, and assembly.

My government regularly hinders political speech in extremely bad and unhealthy ways. We have a constitutional right to freedom of speech but then a number of carve outs were created for a 'reasonable democracy' and has effectively eliminated free speech.

You basically cant go around judging speech expect in very very narrow exceptions. Carving out 'misinformation' or 'abusive' or 'hate' exceptions are readily misused to hinder political opponents.

This literally can't be done in practice. The only cure for bad speech is more speech.
And now, you are manually breathing.

Inheritance is more limited in what you can do and implies a finite set of behavior states. With composition you have a system that can, in theory, have an untestable amount of permutations of behavior strung together.

There's a difference between selling a multi-ton vehicle that has crumple zones and curved lines and selling a multi-ton vehicle that is designed to tenderize pedestrian rib cages. This comment also applies to today's pickups and SUVs; but while those vehicles are pretty nightmarish for the safety pedestrians and other drivers the CT is a further escalation of matters through both design and build quality.

Thanks to Sharepoint and Windows 11 things seem to deal less and less with drive letters. Mac users already have no drive letters. It all seems to blur and look alike.

Users don’t care that much, as long as they can do their job on the magic screen thingy without any problems. They HATE all the problems. They do not care about Mac or Android or Microsoft or Linux. They want to put data in things and machines so other users take that data and put it in their things and machines.

So make all the connections super stable, give excellent user support (which is not telling users to read man pages), let them connect to all their devices seamlessly and instantly and you will have your century of the Linux.
Mostly agree, but will say that there doesn't seem to be a silver bullet. Small project weekend stuff doesn't seem to phase employers as they read like dime-a-dozen undergraduate projects, while ambitious projects can require an incredible amount of time and breadth of knowledge, time that someone on the market wants to spend efficiently.

Exceptions (for small projects) might be highly sought-after skills (devops/ML/Cloud/security), but you can also get certification in any one of these. Maybe trying different stacks for web counts for something.

That's quite crazy to see that a model that's barely bigger than GPT-3 (and only uses a fraction of the compute due to its MoE architecture) can achieve such a thing.

It looks like the people who focasted that AI models would need to keep growing to improve their performance where completely misguided. I wonder if in 3 to 4 years we'll end up with models with less than 4B parameters we comparable performance as today's State of the Art.
This idea is interesting. But I think you are on the wrong mindset: literally merging product and features together won't get the work done.
Instead, think about customers.Think about how current use case.
- Why are they using open-source projects?
- How are they using them?
- Why don't they use other products?
The core here is that we use open-source projects NOT because they are open-source, but they are available and cater to my need. So this is actually IMDb for all softwares.

The second question is, you are making something real big if you want to build another website. Will a browser plugin for github work? If yes, go for it.

Gawd so many neghead anti art comments here on this thread. Lighten up people! Or just stop and have a bit of humility...it's okay to not like or get something, but you don't have to pretend yours is the only possible view, nor that it's shit/awful/terrible and ruining everything.

Just express it like a personal opinion. And it's far more interesting if you talk about why you reacted the way you did: what did you like? What did you dislike? Why? Why do you think it looks shit? How do you feel when you see it?

That shit is gold interesting stuff!

These overly neghead takes are not just boring, and often abusive in their presumption of absoluteness or open denigration of other's opinions -- they are not intellectually curious -- what this place is meant to be about.

It's perfectly okay to have a negative reaction, but be more interesting and curious in your investigation of why you feel that way and clear in your expression of that. Or just don't say anything at all because you just bring this awful, dirty negativity. And it makes you look really bad. And I'm sure a lot of you are not like that.

I want to know your negative take. But I want to know why beyond you expletives, pompous sweeping proclamations and abusive language against art/artists and other's opinions. Capiche?
> You do need to remember IPv6 addresses when your network is hosed when the DNS server becomes unresponsive or returns nonsense.

Who is going to remember the IP addresses of all their switches, routers, and firewalls even when they are IPv4-only? I have less than a handful of switches, and have no idea what the IPs are.

Document the values (Netbox, MediaWiki, private company Github doc repo) and look them up if needed. Or put the values in the hosts(5) file of your management network bastion host(s).
