I've often wondered this. We already know that individuals by and large hate employer-based healthcare coverage but at what point to employers relvolt? The costs on employers are large and getting larger in terms of contributions to premiums as a benefit needed to attract talent, not to mention considerable time and manpower spent sourcing and managing coverage for employees.

A good compromise might be to shift the burden onto the browser. Browsers are supposed to act as the User's Agent, not as an enabler for web companies to do whatever they want. If browsers were actually doing their jobs, they would be rendering only what the user wants and dropping the rest into /dev/null. You wouldn't need dozens of extensions just to make the web sane.

> To extract the data from the figure, we first downloaded the PDF from Hoffmann et al.’s arXiv submission and saved it in SVG format. We then parsed the SVG content to navigate and search the SVG structure. Within the SVG, we identified the group of points representing the scatter plot data and iterated over each point to extract its fill color and position (x and y coordinates) using the attributes of the corresponding SVG elements.

> To map the SVG coordinates to the model size and training FLOP values, we used the location of the labels or ticks on the respective axes. This allowed us to establish a correspondence between the SVG coordinates and the actual data values represented in the plot.

If I could buy one of the cheap BYD cars that are available in China here in Canada, I would do it, tomorrow, in cash.

Meanwhile, I was walking by the Nissan dealership and Leafs were selling for $42k with cloth seats which is the price of a decent full size well-optioned sedan or SUV. I simply can't justify paying the premium for an electric car in Canada.

Why is no one serious about low end electric cars in North America. I would gladly take a 200 mi range no frills car like the leaf at a reasonable price.

I'm not sure of that. I worry that unless we take over the national government, bureaucrats will prevent the aid from reaching every resident for ideological reasons (or cultural reasons, e.g., about the proper role of women) or simply because a bureaucrat wants to steal -- and of course taking over a government is difficult and expensive.

Also, you leave basic security out of your list: not having roving gangs for example always stealing your stuff and sexually harassing your daughter. That's more important that having lighting after dark.

It is normally safe to assume the exhaustive testing isn't possible because the total states to exhaustively tests exceeds the number of atoms in the universe. There are a few exceptions, but in general we should assume it is always impossible to exhaustively test programs. Which means we need to use something else to find what the limits are and test only those, or use formal methods (both would be my recommendation - though I'll admit I have yet to figure out how to use formal methods)

Because the are not using an existing toolkit like GTK or QT. They use Iced, a pretty new toolkit. Developing applications helps them making that toolkit fully production ready.

The can reuse the same libraries and components across lots of applications, terminal, editor, settings and so on. Look at 'cosmic-text' for example.

Plus it makes sense since apps developed with GTK/QT will not show of the full advantage of the new DE.

It does not matter which donor.. MF does not have many new sources of money coming around so they need to keep every penny they get coming.

Even if Google and Microsoft were 99% of their income they can still do not have the luxury of losing that extra 1%, loosing the CEO is still a better option then loosing 1% of their income.

And unless you were donating anything closer then that 1% to MF then you and your opinion are irrelevant for their situation. You may belive they are political all you want, it will not change the fact that they could not afford to loose that donor.

As for the other browsers, they are a joke, Brave, Dolphin and Opera are all just chrome with a different skin, might as well be using chrome then. No thank you.

Any browser that use webkit is ultimately bound by google decision on what they want to do with their engine, just like when google make manifest v3 the only one available next june and break most, if not all, ad blockers. It will affect all those browsers eventually.

Now if any of those browsers want to keep manifest v2 to keep ad blockers working they will have to put the manpower to do it themselves and have to fight Google every step of the way because Google will surely start breaking things they need for the effort, the amount of work will only grow over time until they give up.

I'm not sure the post (from 2022) is/was correct. I've looked into it too, and I expect this was reachable by the existing x509 fuzzer. There's a fallacy in assuming that a fuzzer will solve for all reachable code paths in a reasonable time, and that if it doesn't then there must be a problem with the harness. The harness is a reasonable top-level x509 parsing harness, but starting all the way from the network input makes solving those deep constraints unlikely to happen by (feedback-driven) chance, which is what I think happened here.

Of course, a harness that started from the punycode parsing -- instead of the top-level X509 parsing -- finds this vulnerability immediately.

Show HN: Chatpdb – GPT for your Python debugger
chatpdb - gpt for your python debugger

ChatGPT can be an awesome tool for quickly diagnosing issues from error output, but pasting snippets into the chat window often misses important context and forces you to switch focus and lose your flow. That’s why we built `chatpdb` - a python debugger with ChatGPT!

Simply use chatpdb like you would use pdb or ipdb; it’s a drop in replacement with the exact same functionality. The only addition is the new `y` keyword, which will trigger a response from ChatGPT. chatpdb automatically passes relevant context about your program, including the source code, stack trace, and error information if available to ChatGPT.

> /Programming/test-chatpdb/lib.py(2)echo_platform()

1 def echo_platform(platform: str):

----> 2 print("You are running on:" + platform)

3

ipdb> y

The exception occurred because the function `echo_platform` tries to concatenate the string "You are running on:" with the `platform` variable, which is `None`. [...]

If you have a more specific question you can also supply a prompt to `y`, with the syntax `y "prompt"`

It’s easy to install and set up:

# bash

pip install chatpdb
export OPENAI_API_KEY=....

# python

import chatpdb
chatpdb.set_trace()

chatpdb meets you where you are – AI tooling that’s only invoked when you need it. We hope you give it a try! We’d love any feedback or suggestions.

While individual circumstances matter a lot for impact to a single organization, for estimating the global "blast impact" of a vulnerability, we'd expect that all of that would somewhat average out between all the thousands or millions of different systems and organizations running that tool, and a library with 100 times more users can be expected (all things being equal) to have 100-ish times more situations where it's used in a publicly reachable way - but the difference in average expected impact of having a million systems with a 2.5 CVSS vulnerability (likely causing zero incidents) and a million systems with a 10.0 CVSS vulnerability (likely wormable RCE) isn't 4 times, not even close to that.

Why would they? They often pass the cost increases to the employees and employer-tied healthcare it's a useful retention tool as people are far less likely to quit if their treatments would suddenly become very expensive.
I don’t know about all that, just that the Audi SUV that tried to kill my family looked like it had been hit by an asteroid, and our Atlas was visibly deformed but otherwise fully intact. The door that took the hit didn’t intrude into the passenger compartment at all. Maybe a BMW would have done better, but that was good enough for me.

isn't this disproved by the obesity epidemic? Evolution prepared us to desperately seek caloric abundance and sedentary lifestyles since those things were so rare in the past. Now that we have them constantly, expecting people to fight their wiring is like expecting clocks to run backwards.
I've been a huge fan of their games for a long time now, and this makes me even more so. The stance strikes me as a good balance for the use of AI in such projects.
I thought of the same thing with those automated calls asking to make a donation for breast cancer research, or inured fireman.

The whole thing is automated, from asking for a donation, asking you to send it with a credit card vs a letter in the mail, to telling you 'oh I'm a real person' when CLEARLY they're not (or they all talk the same... /s).

This money goes somewhere. It's the same voice. It's the same scammer. Nothing is being done about it. You'd think some breast cancer organization would sue them to make it go away.

> Maintaining this latent chip on your shoulders towards the unhealthy is weird.

I don’t do that : I just know a lot of extremes and it seems that it is moving toward that more but that might be my bubble. If you eat healthy, move, no smoking or drinking and don’t mention your marathons or weird diet every 5 minutes, it seems healthy to me, but people around me seem to not find that healthy since covid. It has to be more extreme, especially diet and especially the telling me how much they move per day as if it’s something to be proud of. So yes your EDIT exactly; their persona.

I don’t care if people are unhealthy or not and I don’t think it matters too much from personal experience; do what you like but don’t tell me about it. I live healthy but not extremely so that I have a diet or am so skinny that my wrists are the size of my calves (I have honest to god people who have that and say they are in superior health; smart people with doctorates too I might add); I don’t believe it but I definitely don’t care how much they bicycle, run, swim or whatever.
