Luckily WireGuard doesn't have this issue on desktop peers. Although I did run into DNS leaking due to my peer config having an exception for my local network address range. The way I resolved that is to setup dnsmasq on the server and set that as my primary DNS.

I will say that I wish there was a DisallowedIPs directive. It's fun having to subtract a /24 from 0.0.0.0/0, although there are calculators you can use.
Beyond its immediate appeal to the (somewhat cringy imo) “uncensored model” crowd, this has immediate practical use for improving data synthesis.
I have had several experiences trying to create synthetic data for harmless or benign tasks, only to have noise introduced from overly conservative refusals.
I've always recommended hobbies that meet the following criteria

1. Don't require you to interact with screens
2. Require your full attention (e.g. if you were listening to a podcast while doing it, you wouldn't remember a single thing they were talking about)
3. Has a social aspect, but is also possible to do on your own
4. Preferably physical
5. Preferably has some level of "controllable danger/risk", e.g. mountain biking is good because you can walk down hard stuff or stay on easy trails, vs. road biking you don't control the risk of getting injured / killed by a driver.

Some that fall into this category are climbing, skiing, mountain biking, surfing, windsurfing.

There's the other category that this post about woodworking scratches: building things and developing new skills and mastery doing so. However, these don't often come with an easily-accessible, accepting community; it's usually just you alone in a garage. Given how important social connection is, and how isolating a lot of tech jobs can be, this is a void that a lot of us on this orange website need to actively pursue.

If you're in any "tech city", there's definitely a climbing gym nearby. Climbers are almost always amicable, and for the socially anxious, it's a great pretense to interact with someone (because they have to be on the other end of the rope anyway). The amount of capital outlay to get started is low (e.g. shoes, belay device, and a harness will cost <$300 total if you get nice stuff, albeit sticking with the non-expert shoes!), and you can pretty much start having fun right away (vs skiing takes at least a season to get confident enough to truly start having fun and not "surviving").
I interpret this as that SpaceX has a high margin between market prices and their internal costs, so they can safely reduce prices when needed while remaining profitable. The competitor of course should aim not to the current prices, but to SpaceX's costs to be able to compete on the market.
Regulation doesn't force businesses to sell products at a loss, bad business decisions do.

> The EMR, and therefore most note-taking, is not as value add to the patient, or doctor. Its just the only way the doctor will be paid.

I don't think this is true as proper note-taking and documentation is required by law in many countries where the doctor is not paid per patient/procedure
Meanwhile JS is still struggling to define even version 1.0 of a pipe operator, and the proposal has been bikeshedded into shabby oblivion with a syntax that's worse than just pulling out lodash pipe() or similar. TC39 does not fill me with hope.
Google doesn't let you deny permissions for most of them.

As I understand it, apps that use the internet still need an entitlement, it's just that the Google Play store no longer shows that one in the list.
Not universally true, I use banking apps on my Pixel running the latest GrapheneOS. There is literally nothing I cannot do on my phone. I think it's possible that no US banks have apps that can be used as it seems a universal experience among Americans.

trouble with the jaw can manifest as back, neck and shoulder pain. I suffered for years but didn't get better until my dentist pointed out I was grinding my teeth and told me to get a bite guard. Almost immediately the symptoms focalized in my jaw. For about six months I mostly ate soups that I made by throwing any random whatever into a blender (it was a running gag that I'd throw everything from handfuls of seaweed to lima beans and nuts in) and gradually got better. My jaw bugs me now maybe one day a month.
> the tyranny of linters

This is a take I don't think I've seen before. Is someone actually mad prettier is changing their single quotes to double quotes? Are they mad some line is breaking at some word?

Certainly I've never been. I use linters / formatters even when I'm working solo because the mere concept of having to think where to break lines is meaningless disruption from the actual goals I have.

If you _really_ want to break a line somewhere, just add a comment in between and your linter will comply.

Same for me but even further, after using the Glove80[0] I don't want to go back to non-colstag, non-keywell keyboards.

I think you're misinterpreting my response. Of course there's value in testing operating systems within VMs. In fact, a solid chunk (if not most) of the Ubuntu install-base is VMs, believe it or not. I wasn't talking about that at all, but rather responding to the idea that, if I used a VM as my development platform, my problems would go away. In reality, in that context, it really changes nothing.
Which trackball do you use?
They probably are still innovating but not spending as much on it as the cash they have coming in. There's a lot be said for spending an appropriate amount rather than just tipping in vast excesses of cash because you happen to have it.

I used to be involved in the games industry and some company would have a hit, I think MasterMind was an example, and you'd think they must be rich now but no. The process was lots of money comes in, management think we are geniuses we'll put it all into new products, new stuff flops, cash cow declines, can't pay all the new staff, bankruptcy. There's a lot to be said for keeping the spending down.
At small companies, across a long career, I’ve solved the same problems many times. But that’s not the part that stings the most.

What grinds my gears is failing to solve problems I’ve already solved. At some point you have to convince others that a plan is good. Your arguments might not work on a new team. You might not know what the secret sauce was that got you consensus last time. Or after years of getting your way you may forget some of the arguments for an idea.

Because mastery is, at the end of the day, converting an intellectual process into intuition, so you can go faster. Once a decision process is successfully ingrained, the intellectualized path is dead weight.

There’s a lot of vaguely intellectually lazy, cheap instead of frugal thinking, and ethically challenged people in or around our industry, and the collective weight of it causes pushback on progress.
I do use whitespace (empty lines) to "group" parts of a function the way paragraphs group thoughts in prose. For a function it might be as simple as param-check, setup, loop, tear-down. But it makes it a little clearer that some lines of tightly-grouped code represent an "activity" (sub-activity?).

Just wanted to say, I adore Maurice Gee, "The Halfmen of O" left quite the impression on me as a child. Great quintessential New Zealand sci-fi novels from a fantastic mind.
Electric Vehicles is a pretty broad subject. What absolutely must be well developed is the public transport, take Switzerland as an example.

Naturally, personal transports should be electrical, but even more important is to get people on trains.

Lower capacity in the same form factor, but inputs are common and cheap as dirt and will be able to do the hard work of supporting grid scale battery storage. We've learned that there are many applications that do not need to capacity of lithium.
I never noticed that small bar at the bottom of the response section in Bruno. That IS very useful. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you! And cool app too! We had a similar experience in that we built the majority of this ~4 years ago. And it's been stable since.
Thx for sharing this opinion
I started out with no physical skills and only ever have worked in software. However, I took a pottery class and loved it. Classes also start you out on a schedule which is a great way to make sure you actually invest in your new hobby. Similarly you can take classes in most tech shops as well.
nothing in history happens in a vacuum. But as a matter of fact, when the Soviets invaded Germany from the east, what got lost was mostly german knowledge in the destruction and burnings.

Nothing destroys your love of a hobby, even one that you are passionately (or even obsessively) dedicated to, like making it your job. I LOVE riding bikes but all the BS of working in software is preferable to trying to support my love of bikes within the broader industry of bikes.

The word "amateur" has negative connotations, but should really be interpreted as "not your primary pay cheque", not that you suck.
It's funny isn't it, China has a bizarre monopolistic mapping thing enforced legally and technically, and yet it's the Western companies that have basically not produced a new feature for about 10 years, despite slurping down all those petabytes of data in that time (not that Baidu and friends don't slurp data of course, and lots of it).
Really great article! I'm definitely going to use that in the future. Thanks for sharing.
Please spell it out. Who is being oppressed, and by what means?
> Is it? I've been out of the space for a while but I have only seen firmware bugs/limitations/failures rise to strategic importance with AMD installs, which is why the space has such a strong preference for NVidia despite spec sheet cost disadvantage.

You're right. I'm not doing this the easy way, at all! Is there any easy way though?

Without a direct connection to Jensen, there is a 50+ week lead time on Infiniband, so what other options do I have? Who wants to compete with $1.1b worth of orders from CoreWeave?

I'm fine with the bet on Lisa Su and I'm not trying to beat CoreWeave. I'd just like to carve out my own niche and I think there are enough people out there that want compute, that they are willing to look beyond just a single provider for everything. What fortune 500 puts all their eggs in one basket anyway?

Oh and one more thing... this business isn't just about AMD/Nvidia. There are 1000 other components in the system, all with their own issues. We just discovered VRF is not fully working on our very expensive 400G switches running Sonic.

Cheers.
> But such employees will sometimes leave and build their own stuff. Which they'll very likely succeed at, exactly because of the approach they have.

Microsoft was known at some time to provide good environment for their engineers so they could focus on making the product, instead of learning the business side of things, which both removed distractions and reduced the incentives to leave and do things without well-learned habits.
My wife is a vet where the legal penalties are far less but she contends that proper medical records are critical, one of her most important asks of colleagues.
Programming tools are no different. All tools are like this.

OP's complaint is about syntactical differences and that's just because his team doesn't agree with him.

And tbh, to me, the fun creative part in programming lies in architecture, not how I space my code. With woodworking, the creative part is how I put it all together but not the actual cutting part.
My buddy did his co-op at the ministry of transportation, and had a great time. My co-op was two floors down at the ministry of finance; a strictly no-fun zone.
> As I understand it, apps that use the internet still need an entitlement, it's just that the Google Play store no longer shows that one in the list.

That's what it is, I think. The Play Store doesn't show it in the list of permissions anymore.
One way to easily achieve those three rules is to switch to barefoot-style shoes. They force you to slow down and take small steps. Don't have to go full 5-finger shoes either, just something with zero drop, a flexible sole and minimal cushion. I did this and my shin-splints and knee pain went away.
Mercury delay-line computer memory
I must admit I tend to watch SpaceX test flights for the potential fireworks.

But for, say the JWST launch, it really wasn't with the same intent.

In the former, it is just SpaceX way of doing business, no big deal, no significant payload being destroyed and the next rocket is on the line. The latter is the result of billions of dollars, many years of work and great scientific promises that could be blown to pieces.

And of course, for manned flight, who in their right mind wants astronauts dead?
I'm familiar with layers; in fact, I have an extensive layer setup in KDE. But then the problem becomes that I can never remember which key under what layer does what action. So, I basically use four keys from my other layers and have given up on all the others I set up.

My poor memory is my unique problem. Layering won't help. Having dedicated keys that I can see, though, helps me remember what those do. As someone else suggested, I can put custom labels on the extra keys.
Sure, but there's a limited amount of information available from a satellite image. It's hard to tell what's going on inside a building, for example.
I always feel the first thing I would do with a split keyboard is 3D print a baseplate to keep the two halves aligned. Which.might.just.work.
ironically SMS/MMS and VVS are two of maybe a few other operations/functions (system updates maybe? maybe?) that are justifiably 'hard-coded' to the carrier connection.

i've done the dance re: VVS with advanced AT&T support on VPN'ed iOS—so can confirm your point is not limited to Android.
Yeah it's the best solution if you use any public wifi or even mobile telephony. Somebody can just run their own base station and then your phone would connect to that. If it's not your network don't directly connect without a mobile router.
I’ve recently started learning to sew, and instead of working on programming in my spare time I’ve made a few button up shirts. It’s nice to create something that the other people in my life can understand.
I bought the Keychron V6 a couple weeks ago, and I'm loving it. It only has 4 extra keys, but it's nice to have a single button that builds and flashes a device, rather than a multi-key combo.

Also runs QMK/Via, which means I can reprogram those buttons on device, rather than having to make the apps correspond to the keyboard.
The disadvantages in being tied to the execution model of said Turing Complete language are also significant when compared to one that can do optimizations like stream fusion without having to work such optimizations into the language as a whole. But there's no technical reason we can't have both.
"even the researchers working inside will need to take precautions to stay healthy in the face of altitude sickness. The team plans to eventually operate the telescope remotely from a lower base facility to avoid such issues."

I assumed having the humans at lower altitude was pretty much standard for these things. I assume trying to build a structure that could be pressurized for better human comfort just to be closer to the scope would be an unnecessary expense and maintenance issue easily avoided by a lower altitude control offices.
By mult-idevice (mobile, tablets, desktop) I guess we cover cross-platform but the idea is to run on any device/platform with access to whatsapp with one session running as the "server" (the desktop one). This server is the user of an whatsapp number (connected using wa-js) and also connected to a LLM of choice.

The current use-case is the most basic possible, I'm using it to keep a daily, notes and ask general questions. the LLM then save some of the data it extract from the notes into collections that I plan to use later. It is quite new project yet

Isn’t “hobbyist” the exact word you’re looking for?
How do you guys not miss F keys? I can press e.g. Ctrl+F5 with one hand but I would have to use both hands to press Ctrl+Fn+5.
Great criteria! I strongly recommend sailing also as a hobby meeting these criteria- although wind surfing is a type of sailing. Zero equipment or money is required because most people that race sailboats are always looking for crew, and are happy to take on a novice that is excited to learn.

I think people often turn away from sailing because it's seen as an expensive elitist thing for wealthy people, but the truth is the polar opposite of that- most people in the sailing community are working class and often have either small dinghies or older boats you can get for a few hundred dollars and easily maintain yourself. I paid $800 for my first working sailboat, and the first yacht club I joined had a literal garden shed full of rusty hand tools for a "clubhouse."
When code formatters were new, they insisted on vertical in addition to horizontal spacing rules, and that pissed a lot of wise people off.

These days they are pretty good at preserving vertical separation if it already exists and adding it if it’s missing.

It’s such a bummer that the A380 got canned. I flew on Singapore Air’s A380 out of LAX a few times and its ridiculous size made for the largest and most comfortable economy seats I’ve ever booked. Can’t even imagine how nice the premium/business seats on those things were.

I'd like you to back up that statement with some sort of basis. Given that there are zero reliable and detailed public benchmarks on MI300x, how would you know it is unusable at scale?

Of course. You can't have all three: Allow the intended people to have access, don't allow non-intended people to have access, zero friction when transitioning from a permissionless to a permissioned system.
This is how I charge also. I’m going to eventually have a hard wired EVSE mostly for solar timing but I usually am fine at 12-16A on a NEMA 6-20 or 5-20. My $120 unit off Amazon is more reliable than the $1200 Porsche charger I also have (and that is while ignoring the open and unresolved recall for undersized wire used on the plug tail).

My guess is warmth on the unit is a dumb inefficient DC transformer for the controller. There is an Energy Star spec for low standby energy use that most of these inexpensive ones don’t hit.
We already have authorisation popup boxes for websites that want to use stuff like webcams, it doesn't seem unreasonable for them to just give a popup authorisation for web serial with a warning that it could set your printer on fire.

In the beginning of the Web the connections between Hypercard and the Web were known and intentional -- many early web browsers also included HTML editors because it was thought the Web would be a two-way street with users both reading pages and writing their own. The author of ViolaWWW (an early 1990s web browser) originally created it as an attempt to bring something like Hypercard to UNIX

Depends on what sort of music you're into
But why?

The whole point is that you can access all the "essential" keys with modifiers like Fn.

I find it so natural to Page Up/Dn using Fn+Up/Dn that when I'm on a keyboard with dedicated Page Up/Dn keys it just seems like this bizarre waste of space.

Plus the keyboard is so big I have to keep moving my hands all over the place! A 75% keyboard keeps everything within distance of the home row, as it should be. Faraway keys are just inefficient and not ergonomic.

There's no need for F36 when you can just use Shift+F12 or Ctrl+F12 or Fn+F12 or whatever you want.

Also, a compact keyboard keeps your mouse closer which is good for ergonomics as well.
Hopefully LLMs will see past censorship and bring a new age of objectivity and truth. There's a lot of money going in to censoring those too though...

I use a keyboard with 34 keys. Except for being split, the lower number of keys has fixed my RSI as I never have to move my fingers too far.

Why couldn't I use a larger keyboard then? I could, and that's how I started, but having unused keys is just a waste and occupies precious table space.

Of course, they're much easier to travel with too (although I haven't done that yet).
