Ah, I see. I replied under the assumption that by "GPL plus additional terms" you meant "GPL plus additional terms minus the clause that expressly forbids additional terms", but I can see how paradoxical licensing terms would create this ambiguity.
Are you talking about R2? If so, requires a credit card, doesn't support atomic deploys or rollbacks, etc.

I'm a CloudFlare user who's used Workers, and trying to sign up for it fails silently here. Bad start for me, doesn't say much, but makes it hard to review further.

That being said, yes, there are competitors. I don't think any offers quite the UX I've built for small teams of experienced developers, but I could be wrong or misguided in my efforts.
Old games all had what is now called "Inverted Y-axis".

I assume they took it from aircraft controls, that are pull = pitch up (both stick, joystick and yoke-controlled). Counter-Strike ruined it :)
Funny that anyone would point to icing a detached limb as a solution for the ones still attached.
I ran into this problem a while back working at a company that was working to distribute video streams with low latency (lower than Low-Latency HLS) to a large number of viewers. Initially a prototype was built on top of AWS with fan-out/copying and it was terrible. This was partially due to inefficiency, but also due to each link being a reliable stream, meaning dropped packets were re-broadcast even though that isn't really useful to live video.

Moving to our own multicast hardware not only greatly improved performance, but also greatly simplified the design of the system. We required specialized expertise, but the overall project was reasonably straightforward. The biggest issue was that now we had a really efficient packet-machine-gun which we could accidentally point at ourselves, or worse, can be pointed at a target by a malicious attacker.

This 1-N behavior of multicast is both a benefit and a significant risk. I really think there is opportunity for cloud providers to step in and provide a packaged solution which mitigates the downsides (i.e. makes it very difficult to misconfigure where the packet-machine-gun is pointing). My guess is that this hasn't happened yet because there aren't enough use-cases for this to be a priority (the aforementioned video use case might be better served by a more specialized offering), but exchanges could be a really interesting market for such a product.

It would be pretty efficient to multi-cast market state in an unreliable way, and have a fallback mechanism to "fill in" gaps where packets are dropped that is out-of-band (and potentially distributed, i.e. asking your neighbors if they got that packet)
Small Target for Bad Luck?

A dizzy, barely uncomfortable bed-ridden weekend and a strip of Orange paper,

vs.

A lifelong proclivity to quantize, metrify, and reduce all social interactions to transactional objects that exist soley to be leveraged.

The latter also happens to drug addicts, but the it is a psychological phenomenon that can be stymied with medication.

Unfortunately, no analogous chemical exists (yet!) for the similarly inflected urge to gamble.
Some friends of mine played Descent competitively, and I was amazed to learn about so-called trichording: to maximize your speed, you need to press multiple keys at the same time to travel along all 3 axes at once, e.g. forward/right/up. The best players zip around the map diagonally.

I always assumed this was a bug-turned-feature, like skiing in Tribes. When I saw the repo just now, I looked for clues, but didn't spot any related comments around the line of code where this ultimately happens:

https://github.com/kevinbentley/Descent3/blob/142052a67d4318...
From the way you pepper this and other comments with 'I think' or 'I guess', I am getting the idea that you are not in touch with this issue at all. You don't know anyone who gambles, it's a demographic thing, so it's not a big deal.

Gambling is a very big deal in the UK. 40% of the population gambles on non-lottery at least once a year, 27% have done so in the last 4 weeks. 0.5% are problem gamblers and 7% have been affected by someone else's gambling. (all stats from Govt gambling harms review)

The highest-paid person in the UK is the head of a betting company. MPs are openly (Benton) and quietly selling themselves to the industy, who have succeeded in delaying reviews and watering down rules.

The parent post to yours is quite right to say that the US will inherit all of our problems in this area (if anything it will be worse) and I'm not sure you have the information to wave it away as you did.
There's an excellent Radiolab podcast episode about how often cosmic rays cause computer errors in practice. It's engaging and educational: https://radiolab.org/podcast/bit-flip

I always knew about the theoretical cosmic ray bit flips. Before listening to this episode, I did not stop to think how often they actually cause problems.
No, this is dumb:

> required the prosecution to prove that a computer was operating properly at the relevant time before a document produced by such a computer could be admitted as evidence.

But I'm sure you actually mean to agree, and that your comment was just garbled in transit. :)
I see where you coming from and even if the simple calculation is not what it is in real life, it's definitely running more efficiently than it would otherwise. Also, there are other benefits. Mainly, climate control, which means that the room temperature is very precisely at the target level at all times, within 0.3 C degree on average. And when you have constant temperature at all times, it feels very comfortable, and you can't tell whether heating is on or off.
Well, theoretically you should be able to replace the "search" part of "search and summarize" with more analytics-y things - counts, aggregations, joins, whatever - and throw some prompt formatting at it and I'll bet you can get some pretty good conclusions out of an LLM.
Not sure you can call it RAG, but that can probably cover a good 90% of the remaining 20%
What the poster above is showing is that even the medical review boards are actually bad and should probably be replaced with independent oversight. You seem to think that it's the other way around.
Until we sort out the whole idea that it is OK for the US intelligence communitity to use Microsoft, Facebook, Google, Apple, N-other big tech companies to act as their data collection services. They will all continue to basically do whatever they want including jeopardizing our national security with their plainly stated profit motives.

It isn't that Microsoft does not care at all about security it is just that they see it as some business that they can/must make 40-50% margin on like the rest of their operations.[aka outsource it all to countries where folks have fake credentials]
> By his own admission he saw visions of math/theorem god, which is a BS claim since god doesn't exist

Shit reasoning like this from atheists like you is why I cringe to admit I'm an atheist when people ask me about my religious beliefs. It is entirely conceivable that he saw visions of math, produced by his own subconscious, and attributed these visions to a god. It would not be terribly dissimilar from any artist who attributes their creative visions to a muse. Do you accuse any such artist of plagiarism too?
>if you don't have enough RAM in the first place

Enough RAM for what task exactly? System RAM is plentiful and cheap nowadays(unless you buy Apple). I got new a laptop with 32GB RAM for about 750 Euros. But the speeds are too low for high-end gamming or LLM training for the poor APU.
People do it anyway, but you can't practically make those kinds of comparisons and unearth much of value.

The characterization of mental wellbeing is cultural, not universal, and the methodology of collecting assessments is also sensitive to culture.

But it doesn't really matter because it wouldn't tell you much besides "ah, only Ireland has this problem I guess" or "whelp, this has been rising eveywhere" -- neither of which are especially practical conclusions when it comes to actually doing something about it.
The lack of self awareness from a 1%er who thinks it would be easy to work overnight shifts inserting catheters and dealing with emergencies is quite amusing. My sister is a nurse; a respiratory specialist. One of her job duties is to be the person who has to turn off the ventilator when someone can no longer be saved. Try doing that over and over again with the family watching.
They do sometimes - like when they're trying to gain strength. At other times, recovery is more important than growing stronger (like during a tournament).

"when you integrate a function you find the accumulation of its rate of change" is simply wrong. You find the accumulation of the function itself, not its deltas.

GPT is confusing the fundamental theorem of calculus with the meaning of integration.

ETA: what makes LLMs so worrying is that I know calculus quite well, and I think GPT-4 is dumber than a mouse, yet I still felt gaslit by GPT-3.5's wrong answer! I had to make a mental picture to make sure I wasn't contradicting the Mighty Talking Robot. This technology is poison.
Some concrete numbers for the curious:

I'd estimate that a single individual with zero skills in NYC could get:

1) A receptionist job for $46k/yr (includes health insurance) [1]

2) A shared $2k/mo 2BR Jersey City apartment [2]

They'd have a take-home pay of $2960 - $1000/mo (rent) - $1000/mo in other expenses (fairly high estimate IMO).

Annual savings (with a traditional IRA) would be about $13k/yr.

It's not much, but the savings rate is almost 30% of gross income, and retirement calculators say you'll retire at 65 a multimillionaire. Surprisingly, a daily Starbucks or avocado toast (or forgetting the tax-deductible IRA contribution) really does eat into the savings numbers. And forget about having kids until you get a career upgrade.

The major risk is an increase in rent without an increase in wages. Let's investigate:

From 2012-2024, rent in Queens (not sure about JC) rose 45% ('only' 3.14% APY) [3]. Over the same period, national wages grew 47% (3.3% APY) [4]. That's good, since our individual earns 3x more wages than they pay rent. Wage growth was even higher among nonmanagers, so I don't think the growth was captured by the 1%. [5]

Overall, it looks OK to me, though the margins are thin, and you need to share an apartment. Hard to make it work for a family. I'd be curious to see some others run the numbers.

The Macintosh version of the FlightStick had an ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) plug that had a port on the other end so you could plug in another device. It’s been 30 years. Do you think I might misremember? Maybe it was a FlightStick and a Saitek joystick? If you are running the original game on period hardware and tell me that the software wouldn’t know how to tell two different joysticks apart regardless of which type, then I guess I’d have to admit that there’s something fishy with my memory.
If you ask my father who had it pretty easy most of his life: if the ruling class want us to keep buying their products and dont want to employ us, then pretty soon they're going to start handing out money ala UBI.

If you ask me: I'm not even sure the ruling class want us to keep buying their products any more. I think they just want to ensure that no one can ever touch them. If that's the plan, then we're really not necessary.
Having left Ireland over two years ago I can say that the quality of life is simply awful there compared to many other European locations.

I love my country and I was paid exceptionally but at every turn there is an extra overhead or increase in price accomodation is simply disgusting in Dublin, the weather is laughed about being a factor but when you're stuck indoors 80% of the year it has a big effect on your mental health over time.

Add to that the real growing problem of petty and violent crime in the city. While not out of control right now, it's unmanageable by the current Garda police force.

I hope it can figure things out, but as I see, Facebook conspiracy theorists and cookoos are starting to have political positions and it doesn't look like it will end well.
Low latency/rapid trading seems to have added no value to the stock market and eroded a large portion of the fair market evaluation of companies. Whether it's technically possible or not it's likely we'll need to artificially add delay into the system - ideally that can be done in a way that makes it fair to traders that have a naturally high latency connection to even the playing field.
It's over simplification of a nuanced situation. Over simplification in either direction is a problem.

This is a common kind of belief among rational people about how the world should work, based on a casual reading of early law. In general they fail to take into account the fact that there has been decades+ of many smart and awful people chipping away at these laws with exceptions and loopholes until they effectively apply nowhere anymore. For instance, the idea of "exempt" employees was originally only for executive-level people, but now just applies to everyone with an office job. The law is what the modern courts say it is, not what we wanted it to be 100 years ago.
I think we'll see a long tail of IPv4-only services for a long time, but as IPv6 availability of services ramps up (in turn incentivized by a drastic increase in dual stack or v6-plus-v4-NAT eyeballs), v4 fallback solutions will probably be scaled down proportionally, and quality will degrade with it.

"IPv6 is only useful if everybody has it" was conventional wisdom for a long while, but it turns out to not really be true anymore: IPv6 is incrementally useful.
Any sources for Ireland's government giving free houses?
Agreed; my problem was that the parent comment was imprecise, and hence confusing. "n bit random number vs. n bit modulus" implied n was the same in each case, whereas 521 is not the same as 512.
GDP when it comes to Ireland is not the best measure, yes it was down in 2023 due to lower returns from pharmaceutical and contract manufacturing multinationals.

Modified Domestic Demand, a better measure of the internal economy was up 0.5%, much better but will still be felt relative to the crazy highs Ireland reached the past few years.

The new OECD tax agreement means GDP and tax will remain under pressure (tax surplus forecasts are being revised downwards).
A presumption is not a simplification of anything. It is a starting point.

I was also one of the Kahn developers back in the day, before I worked on D3. :)
I disagree completely. Simply because you can't find someone who lives up to your expectations does not mean that they are unrealistic. Yes, they might be, but for most reasonable people, it's more likely that they're looking in the wrong place or at the wrong time.

Your assertion is basically "lower your standards to what you see around you."
I recently discovered the Weird Studies podcast (which I love), and it sent me down an interesting rabbit hole around "magic."

Weird Studies covered a book called "Sex Secrets of the Black Magic Experts" (title is meant to be jokey, not serious), which outlines a sort of modern approach to thinking about "Magic." It doesn't advocate for magic in the sense of literally believing that some ritual or invocation has some physically measurable effect. Rather, it's more about the idea that the mindset inherent to "magical practice" - like the interpretation of omens, or making some plea to a "god" or "force" - can be a useful mindset, a sort of different lens to view the world through.

As someone who spent a lot of time in my teens and early 20s consuming various rationalistic media (science books, New Atheist tracts, skepticism podcasts, etc), my knee jerk reaction to "magic" has mostly been disdain. But it's really interesting to consider it from this different angle and recognize that "magical thinking" has been a big part of the human experience for as long as we've been around. Maybe there's a baby in the bathwater there that we're throwing away, and maybe the notion of the "practice of magic" could be approached in a way that excises the dumb while keeping the good. (I've come to similar thoughts about religion and spirituality as I've gotten older).

Plus, as a nerdy metalhead type, I have to admit to myself that some of this stuff is just cool, and so it's been kind of fun to "allow" myself to dig into some of the various literature out there on "magic". (The whole Chaos Magic thing is full of fun and wacky stuff, check out "Liber Null," for example).

I think the Weird Studies pod I mentioned does a much better job than this post outlining the ideas in SSOTBME, and they covered another book, Technic and Magic, that has some similar thinking. Highly recommend the pod if that sounds even vaguely interesting.

What I like most about the Mac is macOS and a lot of the 3rd party software. The hardware is a bonus.

I switched when Apple was still using PPC. I’ve been through 3 architectures and the transitions have been largely seamless for me. Microsoft seems to make much more trivial things seem like a pain. I’m not sure why I’d ever want to go back to that. Microsoft requires 1-2 decades of trust building with me.
I feel like we're past the point where IP address randomization practically provides reasonable privacy: Unless you use a new address per connection or at least site visited, data brokers will just collate your data on their backends.

The company I work for has a lot of stupid bullshit. My coping mechanism for this stupid bullshit is to complain loudly about it, and try ineffectually to get it changed. What I will not do, ever, is lie to my bosses and use that bullshit as some justification. Both of these things are true: (1) their company should deal with their own bullshit so they can actually retain top talent, and also (2) firing the liar was absolutely the right move. Lies have no place in the professional world, ever.

The reason I posted that article is because it summarizes how there has been a huge shift in thinking since the low-fat craze. I don't think it takes anything for granted, and I wasn't looking to argue for a particular point of view. I'm sure you can find studies about a specific topic as easily as I can.

Re caloric density: it's true that fat has more cal/g than carbs or protein. But, people do not eat a fixed mass of food per day -- the satiety of the food they consume influences this. Insulin response also affects weight gain and satiety.
