NVIDIA is so damn good at its job that it took over the market.
There's no regulatory or similar barriers to entry. It's literally that they do a damn good job and the competition can't be as good.

You look at that and want to take a sledgehammer to a golden goose? I don't get these people
An expression-orientated Python would be so much better than the Python we have now.

This article is not what the title suggests, but it’s a good explanation of Lisp.
I work at https://www.pdf-tools.com and we hear this again and again.

Despite the proliferation of cloud services, most large enterprises DO NOT want their sensitive documents entering the cloud. And in some cases, e.g. patient medical records, there are strict regulations about how those documents can be stored, which means on-premise is a requirement.

Good news for us, as that's what we specialise in, but also perplexing how trends in the software industry can completely ignore what customers actually want.
Encrypted mail service Proton hands suspect's personal info to cops again
I've had the opposite experience - copilot will pop up a suggestion that's wildly wrong and I'll expend energy processing and discarding it.
for me this works better than blanket turning off js and there seems to be alot of trivial js on cnn, reuters, and bbc wesbites. you can investigate the js which the addon regards as trivial
Some people trade used cars pretty frequently and already have a mental checklist. I could see this still being useful because it's easy to get focused on one thing and miss something else.
Email is still plain-text within an xml document referenced in the page source.
Don't have time to test myself right now - what about accessibility, can a screen reader read it?
That's not a good comparison imho.

Programming languages are formal. Otherwise you're talking about programming prompts for a LLM. And the resulting program may vary.
Because pathologizing and aiming to "treat" behavioral characteristics that are not only not harmful, but actively beneficial in many cases, is completely and utterly absurd. It'd be akin to something like, 'Oh you seem to be oddly content with your life. Have you gotten yourself screened for stoicitis? I hear there's some treatments available.' It's just nonsensical.

The reason behavioral characteristics are pathologized is because they near invariably result in "meaningful" harm to an individual or to others. And "meaningful" isn't a guy saying mean things because he doesn't care about your emotions, but rather a schizophrenic deciding to go start killing people because the voices in his head told him to.
They do not hate javascript/wasm software per se but non-free software.
Hasn't this research been done by teams building NPUs today? E.g. chips built by Groq use an architecture built specifically for AI, which is why they're able to deliver the performance they do. On the consumer side, Apple silicon is also quite capable.

I'm not in this field at all, but it seems to me that using general purpose processors that communicate over (relatively) slow lanes can only get us so far. Rethinking the design at the hardware level, and eventually bringing the price down for the consumer market seems like a better long-term strategy.
I didn’t check the proposition. But is there a problem for this solution? Every car brand has an online community for every model. Every community has a forum and checklist with all the possible problems. Also most people know some car guy to ask the basics.
I am fantastic on Linux kernel and on Clang compiler. This article teaches me what GNU extension characteristic will be when Linux kernel is accepting more modern C11 standard.

For example, Linux kernel use local labels, inline assembly and builtin functions heavily.

This article inspires me to persist studying in Linux kernel and Clang compiler.
Survivor bias. In Europe, art painted on external walls or cliffs, would not survive elements for 30k years. Caves have extremely stable microclima (humidity, temperature, UV light exposure). In modern times paintings are endangered by breath and heat emissions from visitors!!

I can not believe "educated" people would not come with this solution, and instead have to invent this spiritual stuff.
Agree completely, as does most of the Go community :) Newbie gophers are regularly told to learn some SQL and stop trying to rebuild ActiveRecord in Go ;)

But in .Net, EF is still the most common way of accessing data (I have heard, because I stopped using it over a decade ago).
> The spoken aspect seems like the hardest and maybe better to not bother with that at all.

You'd probably find that this is precisely where linguistic evolution is fastest (kids, teens, etc.) and it would quickly get out of step with other modes.
There are people I’d describe as “neoliberal” in the party, but your description of “neoliberal” is not correct in any sense that it’s used in political science.

Also, you seem to be unaware of the point that the need to specify the type of “liberal” origins not due to the different flavours that we have in Europe, but due to the fact that “liberal” (without the “classical”) is understood as something in the US that would be considered slightly left of most “Social Democrats” in European terms.
Given the entire bottom section, it seems like accessibility was taken into account here.
Yes, heroic error correction ! It was cool.
I'd suggest install a separate browser (there exists a myriad by now), unplug internet, use the service, uninstall the separate browser, reboot pc.
Unfortunately then I think it won't help at all - going through the accessibility tree is a standard web crawling play.
Are forecasting models accurate enough to know when disconnection is necessary? We know how strong the CMEs are but not how they'll recombine on their way to earth.

Yes. Transformed/minified/obfuscated is object code.

And when you convey object code then you need to provide the "corresponding source" as per section 6.

But my comment is more about: how much of a web page is a "work based on the Program" or "modified version" when you distribute/convey GPL licensed JavaScript as part of your page?

Abridged excerpts from: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html#license-text

“The Program” refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this License.

A “covered work” means either the unmodified Program or a work based on the Program.

Propagation includes copying, distribution (with or without modification), making available to the public

To “convey” a work means any kind of propagation that enables other parties to make or receive copies

The “Corresponding Source” for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work.

6. Conveying Non-Source Forms. You may convey a covered work in object code form [snip] provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License ...

This is not legal advice.

The FSF appears to be deliberately unclear about how GPL and JavaScript interact. And LibreJS is fairly useless to help you legally decide if your web page is a derived/modified work or not.
I learned to program in dynamically typed languages and all I got was an undefined t-shirt
Consider the set of functions that that map the reals onto other reals. Almost all of these functions are truly random, with no way of expressing them that does not require the storage of an infinite number of infinite strings.

Not only is there no practical way of creating such a thing, most formulations of physics preclude any possibility of making one by placing finite limits of the amount of space or time accessible to us.

(Not to mention that almost all reals are [Turing] uncomputable in their own right, but that's a more complex thing to demonstrate.)
Your memory is playing tricks on you.

The speed of light does change physics, as does any fundamental constant. Expressing a speed in different units does indeed yield different numbers, but that is not equivalent to a change of speed.

Changing alpha means that electromagnetic force get stronger or weaker, thus the atoms still exist but with different orbital levels. Considering how intricate the orbital levels of atoms are, it's not shocking that a tiny change in alpha completely redefines chemistry, but chemistry would still exist.
The Netherlands has a segmented rental market. The social/rent controlled sector has a price ceiling of €880/month and is only accessible with annual income below €48k/€53k (single/multi-person household). These norms apply nation wide, but as demand / free market prices in the large cities like Amsterdam is much higher than elsewhere in the country, waiting times for social rent there is around 15 years (vs maybe 3 to 5 outside the big cities). Free market rents (anything over €880/month) in Amsterdam is probably around €1500 for a 1br or €2500-€3500 for a 3br. Around 3/4 of the total rental housing stock is social/rent-controlled units. It can be pretty nice if you manage to get one, but it's almost inaccessible to newcomers/outsiders due to the income caps and waiting times. Which is pretty much the expected outcome for price control affordability policies.
Or like GPS? While GPS gets me where I want to go, I find that using a map or no map at all gives me a better sense of place, so I need less time to get to the point where I don't need a GPS to get around.

I always told our new-hires to avoid thinking too deeply about computer timekeeping if they value their sanity.
If concealing it in an object tag works then you could just have the object tag show it as plain text or html, right? Not sure why its an svg.
Is it still necessary to obfuscate email addresses? Mine isn't and I get around 50 generic spam emails per month to gmail.
Utah gets particularly funny with the coordinate grids used out here. I've heard everything from one thousand three hundred and fifty five east two thousand south to literal readouts of the digits

The vulgar of different European places was already splintered into very different variants many centuries before the 1400s, it just matured from a continuum of random informal dialects, the further you travel the better linguist you have to be, to more consolidated and more recognized languages (plenty of different ones in "France" and "Spain").
If you are creating an MVP, this strategy may work. You could then hire more experienced people to rewrite everything if the product takes off.
You mean the atmosphere will no longer have free oxygen? How are we supposed to burn the new fossil fuels?
There are open source apps for that you can find on f-droid.
Can the program be recovered once the exception is thrown and you start debugging? Or is the keeping of the stack the last allowed state before exiting?
I swear Google Drive used to do this properly but has gotten considerably worse over the past few years
I always use MP3 since it's the most compatible. Doesn't make a difference for my hearing and I can use it anywhere. E.g. some car radios still have problems with other formats. Saying "who needs this" is very dismissive.

Is that really fair? We had the xz thing recently, that was open source.

I'm not saying MS isn't the worst. But there are plenty of linux exploits. An expert IT person might keep that up to date but your average business, government agency, hospital is not up to it.
I love this kind of projects to learn how to program or to be introduced to a new programming language!
Back in the day, when I was starting out in programming, I made one that was practically the same so that my parents could download songs from youtube without help (https://github.com/ErlantzCalvo/Alcachofa)
> We "make choices", but only because physics moves our brain from one state to the next

Is it deterministic, who makes the choices for us, why does physics move our brain, what's the cause?

Probably because the asset is stationary and could be seized by the government at any time.

I worked in that building years ago a couple floors above the highest step on the west side. My office had an awesome view of the surrounding area. The building has its own attached parking garage easily accessible from two side streets. It's a really attractive building.

I think an owner wouldn't need to refurb the whole building as residential. They could choose to reconfigure the top 5-10 floors as condos and make a killing.

The building has always had strong tenants and reasonably high occupancy. I don't know enough about the office space situation in FtW today but the whole sale for 10% of the previous sale price sounds really suspicious.

This wouldn't be the first mixed residential/retail repurpose in FtW as the old Montgomery Wards headquarters building was completely transformed into mixed condo/retail configuration 15-20 years ago and it is a cornerstone property along 7th street. It was part of the whole transformation of 7th to an entertainment/residential district. Today that area is a big residential-restaurant-nightlife attraction and young professionals moved there for the easy access to downtown and that night life. It gets rowdy out there on weekends.

This Burnett building is farther east by a couple miles or so from there.

There is local experience for conversions like this and FtW is full of old and new money so I wouldn't be surprised to see someone step in and transform it.
> even when a human visitor has their JavaScript turned off, the email address displayed on the page remains usable

NoScript on Firefox with default settings don't render <object> tags (replaces them with placeholders), so this technique doesn't work here.

>All of this is to say, instead of this being an indictment of the JS ecosystem and its programmers, its more indicative of a stdlib function that should exist but doesn't.

Surely by now they would have recognised a need for some standard math packages and then created one and all the new projects should be using that and people would have migrated? Especially given how fast FE seems to move.

Instead they are content with pulling a thousand dependencies and an intractable dependency system.
I tried several different extensions but ended up with Obsidian. The biggest obstacle is that VS Code is projects centered and I don't want to recreate notes structure every time I start new. At the same time Obsidian offers consistent linearly growing tree of notes in your preferable structure.

I can switch projects several many times a day in VS Code and almost never switch vaults in Obsidian. For every project I have its own structure and can copy-paste items between if I need.

Just share how I organized my workflow.
Yet he functions well in niche circumstances, and he's currently in said circumstances and functioning. Not only that, most people would not be able to function as well as Musk in Musk's shoes.

Also, the absurdity isn't really Musk in a vacuum, it's him being in the same basket as people who can't complete any activities of daily living. He might actually be more similar to quite a few people with ADHD than quite a few people with level 3 autism. It's very strange and incoherent even.

This is, by the way, all a result of what a mess of a taxonomy the DSM and ICD are.
I'm actually curious, if there is anyone here that's actually an expert on this stuff can you explain

(1) How do you tell a state actor from just hackers looking to make money?

(2) Is this a solvable problem?

I can't imagine most state agencies, hospitals, doctors offices, small businesses, being able to afford good experienced IT staff. I can't imagine outsourcing it to nearly any company and trusting that company. Exceptions might be Google or Apple but neither company provides more than email/docs/spreadsheets. They don't supply bookkeeping, appointments, medical record management, etc... and AFAICT, all the suppliers for those kinds of services have terrible security practices. And, even if Apple and Google could do a good job there's still social engineering.
There are also two "break rooms" on each floor near the emergency staircases, I assume those have some plumbing too? However, another interesting challenge will be to make sure that each apartment has access to both the elevators and the staircases...
If your application doesn’t implement custom encryption code (which it probably does not) you can just check the "None" option, even if your app does use encryption (which it probably does if you are using https for example).

As long as your app is not providing an encryption algorithm, you are fine ignoring this.

It’s also fine if you do use encryption with the Apple provided libraries since in this case you are not providing encryption code but just using it.

In fact, nobody cares about this in France, it looks like Apple is the only one being so bureaucratic about this stupid declaration. It’s pretty specific, absolutely not verified by anyone (our current government is obsessed with public expenses reduction so you can easily imagine that nobody cares about the version of RSA a random foreign app uses).

This declaration is only useful for apps that have encryption in their core business (password managers, encryption of files …).

IIRC, this declaration is only a mean for the national cybersecurity agency to know if a given application can become a threat for national security if it happens to use outdated or flawed encryption. It’s not to give them access to anything (you just declare algorithms, not the keys).

It’s a frequent thing that happens to frighten foreign developers and we regularly have unavailable apps for this reason because it’s true it’s unclear.
Not OP.

Conflating "art" (the "snobbish" definition if you will) with realistic depictions of imagined worlds, stories and settings is not helpful here. There are so many talented, imaginative people out there that have previously had Zero ability to manifest their thoughts into a visual form. AI has enabled that on so many levels and we should be grateful for it.
I tested and seems accessible on the live demo. Not sure if is as protected as the author claims though, but it might throw some bots for a spin.
The Perl interpreter is v5.6.1, though strictly speaking it's miniperl, not perl — there's no support for XS (i.e. native-compiled) modules.

Unlike MacPerl, it supports system(), exec(), and backticks in the Unixy way you'd expect. In fact, the program that packages up a MacRelix archive is a Perl script running in MacRelix.

I guess we'll just have to disagree about the Tolkien references. :-)
In just over two months, I grew my following to 500, thinking it would take a long time to reach 1,000 followers. Unexpectedly, I achieved this milestone in just two weeks. Here are my reflections from this period, and I want to share them with you all. Thank you to my friends for their support.
Isn't a large company more handy model than a "Chinese room"?

Hordes of these in practice own our species. They come up with the decisions on carbon footprint, on whether to colonize Mars, on where to shift collective attention.

Although these entities are only one of achievements of our culture, for now they dominate on global level.

Big achievement. "Consciousness" not strictly needed. Whatever the definition of "consciousness", a big company is driven by a glorified stack of excels and definitely couldn't write Chinese (assuming none of employees does, after Searle).

So, running a planet and overriding any individual human is not enough, let's focus on entertaining an individual human with an interesting conversation in Chinese? What do you even seek with that model? /s
I don't think the last decade has been completely uninteresting.

ARM Macs with unified memory, and on the software side WSL on Windows (maybe even Proton, although Wine has been a thing for more than two decades now) felt experimental enough for a while.

Sure, nothing as crazy as running Unix on an Apple ][ (http://web.archive.org/web/20230122214955/http://www.gno.org...)
I guess worms are still allowed as long as they are more than a single instruction, right?
I would like to push back on the idea that you should obfuscate your email address at all.

My email addreas is danny@spesh.com. I get a lot of spam -- possibly, since I have been distributing that address deliberately on the web and inadvertently in hacked datadumps, a near maximum amount of spam.

But the benefits of having people easily find a way to contact me directly has for me far outweighed the (largely solved) challenge of discarding automated spam.

Publish your email address! It's okay! Very little bad will happen, and people will be able contact you without going through some strange social media intermediary!
Speed on, I'll enjoy the slo-mo crash footage later :)
Defer and context managers are a pale approximation of RAII. They are constrained to lexical scope, as opposed to RAII which works with object lifetimes. And it's the latter case which is much more error prone than 'oops, I forgot to close a file I opened this function'.
I think it’s fair to have generic points to check for a car. Maybe later they’ll add sub lists for each car model/make?

From my experience, not knowing anything about cars and what basic things to look for, forums seemed not that great and the “top 10 things to look for” kind of articles either.

I ended up asking chatGPT, and turns out it seems to know exactly about the model I was looking at and I then crossed check if the commons problems were real online.
Content Butler – AI-Driven Tool for YouTube Video Scripts
Hello everyone,

I’ve developed a tool/SaaS called Content Butler IO, aimed at helping YouTube creators streamline their content creation process. It uses AI to provide predictive insights and ready-to-use video scripts, helping creators forecast trends and generate content ideas.

I’m looking for feedback on how well it performs and any improvements you might suggest. If you're into content creation or interested in AI tools, I'd appreciate your input to enhance its features and user experience.

Thank you for checking it out and for any feedback you can provide!
I think that nowadays most spam lists come from data breaches and address-collecting malware. It's cheaper than running a bot to scan the web for addresses. We get spam on addresses that were never published online.
"Soul" I think is basically the memories in our brain. And memories are data, like a picture of bits some of which are on and some of which are off. Is there a picture or just random noise? If there is picture, there is soul.

Another way of thinking about it is that a picture is made up dots which are NOT lit up. So our memories, our soul is is not "physical". It does not have mass, because whether a dot is lit up or not does not change its weight. Memory is not made up of particles but by the information encoded by their positions.
Komarch (a very large Polish IT company) is famous for this. They don't have any products of their own, they specialize in box-ticking, contract work and winning tender offers from the government. Because of how tender offers work, anything which cannot be measured doesn't matter, and any system which fulfills the pre-established requirements has to be accepted, no matter how bad it is. This usually means terrible UX and terrible code quality.

There's even a "law of Komarch", "anything that can be done by one senior can also be done by 50 interns."
