> RQ never publishes a real protocol for sending and receiving jobs.

Then, RQ sounds substandard.

> Also the `data` field could be anything

"the sender could send anything" is true in theory, but in practice it is both useless and false. If you want to make it work, sender and receiver need to agree on a lot.

JSON could take any forms too, but the sender and receiver have to typically agree, implicitly or explicitly, on many of the details of the message. Like, what fields are needed, what the allowable values are, etc.

You're right! (I'm ignoring the reply thread).

I'm so used to a world where "interactive" was synonymous with "telnet" and "person on keyboard".
The source link at the top of the article leads to a 404.
EQ is a thing just like IQ. A person can get by with just one if it’s off the charts, but most people would do better expanding both.
Maybe it would be better to say it was a common enough interface to hook up devices that were essentially a bunch of potis and not much more?
We did, Voyager 1 and 2 used Jupiter to get out of the solar system
Better to print out, just to be sure
One data point: I'm a Linux user and I prefer GUIs for fiddly things like version control, although in some cases I end up using the terminal anyways because all the GUI options are terrible.
> That’s misleading because they are idling their existing coal power plants more often. Essentially they are using new coal as demand following peaker plants rather than base load power generation. “In the first decade of the 2000s, plants were running around 70% of the time. They're now running around 50%.

That doesn't sound all that misleading then? If they've installed 20 times more coal generating capacity than the rest of the world and are operating it 50% of the time then they're still adding 10 times more emissions than the rest of the world combined, and that's assuming the rest of the world will all be operating their coal-fired power plants fully 100% of the time.

> By comparison China added 217 GW of PV in 2023 alone which came online over the year.

217 GW of nameplate capacity or of average generation? These are very different numbers for solar because of the low capacity factor.
Man, makes me sad just how much time and effort is wasted on decompiling those old games.

All of this effort could’ve been spent on implementing features and fixing bugs by super dedicated fans of the games. Instead, there’s a constant fight with code and bloodsucking lawyers of greedy companies who don’t give a single shit about those games.

Most of those aren’t even sold anymore. Destined to rot, because of petty reasons.
This. As a user and a developer I've had more than a few run-ins with a distro deciding to be a bit different, usually with no very weak justification (pedantic interpretations of some standard, attempts to make something 'neat', or just random changes that someone thought would be cool). Debian is especially bad at this, Arch tends to be better but they've also done some stupid things (python-as-python3 being a thorn in so many developer's side for years).

That's amazing trivia! Thanks for sharing
For me it was just because of the damage it caused. I guess if I heard someone was throwing out a piano I wouldn't think much of it, but the destruction of everything in the ad made me uneasy. I just felt like it was so wasteful to destroy things in the way they did. But again, maybe I have a double standard, because if I saw someone throw a trumpet or an old camera in the dumpster I probably would not care as much.

Elon Musk's X can't invent its own copyright law, judge says
The issue isn't just the total number, it's the demography. The population is getting very old at a breakneck speed. I'm not sure how healthcare and pensions are supposed to be provided for old people when the tax base gets smaller and smaller every year. The end result is pretty terrible elder poverty.

Not to mention the changing political dynamics of having a lot of old people outnumber younger people by 2 or 3 times in the voting booth. The gerontocracy is bad enough now. Imagine it 3x worse.
Yes - sort of!
Thats what OP was saying though, if countries want assimilation to that high of a degree, they should encode it in a law. Otherwise, they are being duplicitous by inviting skilled workers on one hand and then creating structures which drive them away.

For example, there can be a legal requirement to have a B2 level of German within 3 years of being in country, if the requirement is so important.

Right now, the policies say one thing and politics say another.

P.S. : the real reason such a law would never exist is because it would drive a huge amount of skilled immigration away and this is something also politicians cannot afford.
That was the one. Guess I remembered wrong.

Yeah I don't care how good the AI is, it's not the same as the experience of playing a real instrument. It's taking away someone's creative experience and replacing it with a synthetic version. Even if the result is higher quality artistic output it eliminates the process of producing it which should not be discounted.

Just to add to the list of this Jim Simons did and funded, he also established the Simons Foundation Autism Research Initiative (SFARI).

"SFARI’s mission is to improve the understanding, diagnosis and treatment of autism spectrum disorders by funding innovative research of the highest quality and relevance."

SFARI in turn funds a lot of foundational neurological and rare disease research, since autism is such a common phenotype.

The problem is that all the effort is still on the developer to actually build a user interface, while Gridlock already has it built. Additionally, any company can build on the Gridlock storage network using the SDK. It's secure MPC without the work of bringing that to the user and explaining it. In a clear way.
I read it twice and I don't want to read it a third now.
I’m honestly not that concerned about it, it’s no bigger an issue than catfishing or lying about your hobbies or lifestyle. The barrier to entry to manipulate an AI to convincingly lie on your behalf is higher than just lying on your own (until someone makes a tool for it)
That's what I really want to figure out. I feel like I wouldn't have a problem with it if I knew it was 100% fake and not actual items being destroyed.
You can get a lot closer to the center of mass of the black hole, which should drastically increase acceleration since it falls off with distance squared.
Apple, and west coast US companies in general, are the biggest promoters of political over-correctness, "inclusion", "diversity", etc. (to put it in non-offensive terms).

It would be extremely hypocritical for them to simply dismiss the feelings of people. So, even if it doesn't make sense, they're obligated to apologize to be consistent with their own discourse.
This feels like an unnecessary layer on top? Increments can just be a function that uses an existing txn to read, incr, write. It feels like they implemented transactions on top of transactions, adding complexity?

Health risk is health risks
I was questioning the idea that having a refilled tank in your car is more dangerous than skydiving. I think it is fair to presume it has some non-zero risk.

I was questioning if that risk is meaningful, or if it is like a prop 65 warning on every building you enter, and most products you purchase.

Googling around I was able to find 1 death associated with refilling a DOT-39 container [1], which is scary shit. However, it seems to be caused by a poor coupling, refilling inside, with an ignition source. This could have happened with any container including a certified refillable one.

This is really sad. Simons definitely had some views I don't agree with, but he was one of the good ones overall.

Specifically, I hope the Simons Foundation continues to fund Math for America. My wife participated in this program, and it helped her become an excellent educator while also _significantly_ helping her financially.
Thanks, that's a very interesting perspective which I hadn't previously considered.
"Space Imploder" is not a real arcade game. That looked like one of those cheap mini arcade boxes you can buy brand new from a variety of sources.

I see a bunch of cheap knock offs being crushed but I cannot say all of the items were.

Kind of funny, I was just looking at adding similar functionality to an internal Chrome plugin I built because we struggle to get enough useful info in bug reports (being able to look at the HAR, in particular, is useful, but difficult to get users to do correctly).

Two questions -

1) Any way to customize which headers/cookies get scrubbed?

2) Is there a way to get something like the lower-level export you can get by going to chrome://net-export/?

Or a typo for extricate
"Sorry, there's no money" is not a complete statement. The more honest statement is "Sorry, there's no money for you".

Clearly, companies spend money on things (offices, factories, private jets, etc) other than salary increases all the time. The company has decided that its money is better spent on this thing rather than the other. Sure, workers might quibble about whether the money is better spent going to them but buybacks are not any different than any other thing the company is spending money on so it is not any more of a "fuck you" than other types of expenditure.
> usually for profit in the attention economy

I remember Obama's "Cash for Clunkers" program where people were paid to pour sand in engines and run them to destruction.

This was all supposedly in the service of replacing them with more fuel efficient cars. The trouble was the numbers weren't run. To equal the emissions from manufacturing a car, a car would have to be driven 20,000 miles. One can easily see that the increase in fuel economy didn't add up.

Then there was the "create new jobs" fallacious reasoning, akin to the broken window fallacy.
It was a mini arcade box which are sold by a variety of companies with any number of real arcade games using modern hardware in them for under $300.

I can't find any existence for the game "Space Imploders" though.
I really have to disagree.

I have to acknowledge that there’s probably a pile-on effect from people who enjoy outrage, but a lot of the negative sentiment is coming from level headed musicians and artists; a group that I identify with.

And I wouldn’t say my reaction is rage. It’s closer to a combination of deep disappointment, strong dislike, and a growing feeling that the nebulous worries I’ve felt about tech and its impact on art/music are being made very real.

I don’t find it analogous to a library. Such an ad would imply (to me) some kind of digitization, which frankly is a huge problem at a time when libraries and access to physical books are increasingly under threat.

And I find it different than a basketball, because no one is worried that NBA2K is an actual threat to the game, and basketballs are inexpensive standardized objects.

What they crushed was symbolic of thousands of years of human artistic creativity and output at a time when there’s a lot of anxiety about AI more or less crushing those fields for real.
I got ya :)
What do you think about the matrix (the movie)?
People didn't even notice that it was "space imploders" lol. They were too busy being outraged.
Awesome project. The PS1 version of this game is one of my favorites from growing up and also the reason my home server's hostname was "eelnats" for many years.
The first thing this app does is connect to Microsoft servers to download theme files, which for some reason aren't bundled into the binary. If you block it from accessing the internet, it crashes.
While I do this too I understand the above complaint. I think naturally linux should have more of a system similar to what OSX does. I mean I'm constantly switching between OSX and Linux machines but more and more recently I've been at at mac computer while inside a linux system and that is very seemless because it is the GUI that fucks shit up. But now there's so much momentum that I'm not sure they can go back. I think the only way to make this correction is for a big distro like Ubuntu/Pop/Manjaro/Endeavor to switch to a default with alt or super as they windowed operating key but have the option to switch back (should be implemented in the install process and made clear and easy to undo. But without making it the default it'll always stay the other way. (first introduction should be non-default)).
It'd be more useful if Deno exposed a SQLite driver or included one in the standard library like Bun.

Perfect decompilation definitely has its advantages, but that's something I simply don't have it in me to pull off. Tracking down derelict toolchains and SDKs, endlessly tweaking compiler options and source code to get that thousand instruction long function to match perfectly is not for everybody.

The trouble with decompilation projects is that there's hardly any tooling or literature available on the topic [1], so people usually end up developing custom tooling and methodology on their own to solve their issues. For example, personally I went down the path of delinking programs back into object files in my own project. While I find it quite nifty, it also isolates me on my own desert island and I know of other decompilation projects with totally different approaches in a similar situation.

Decompilation projects can be quite intellectually rewarding, but they are essentially R&D projects in a barely explored field. Wander off the thin strip of beaten path and you're basically on your own in an endless primordial jungle.

[1] At least until decomp.me came along, but that's geared for perfect decompilation only. Any other approach and you're still on your own.
Have you heard the expression "Hire a teenager while they still know everything" :-)
The entire ad is a symbol for Apple's iPad replacing everything being crushed. It's not "Space Imploder", it's every single arcade game every made. It's a representative for arcade games in general. Nobody should take "Space Imploder" literally. They can't use "Space Invaders" likely because of copyright, but I'm sure that they would have in this ad if they could have just so that someone wouldn't end up missing the point and suggesting "but, Space Imploder doesn't even exist".

I think this is a really fun complaint because iostreams is terrible and has no reason to be terrible, but if you use C++ in the day to day it just does not matter. There are so many other problems. If your first complaint is about iostreams you probably did not get past hello world.

As a musician, the availability of cheap instruments doesn’t reduce the impact of the symbolism in this ad from my perspective.

It’s not just a question of monetary value or quality, and is more about the implications of the imagery and the resulting questions it raises about the goals of a multi trillion dollar company.

You’re welcome to do whatever you want with your $60 trumpet, and that’s not going to bother me. I see that as orthogonal to the issues with a company of Apple’s size and reach symbolically destroying an entire room full of creative objects while selling to people who are deeply invested in those objects in their own lives.
