DDG works about as good as Kagi for me. And I enjoy using GPT4 with the search tool for power assist, since it's better at planning search terms, extracting into, and integrating the search results into a longer conversation and critical analysis.
Who believes it’s a recent development? I’ve never heard that opinion that I can recall. It’s stuff we’ve been doing for 20 years, conveniently bundled into a nice to use package with good documentation.

For small projects if I can avoid using react and just use htmx/tailwind I will. It’s quite pleasant to do simple tasks in.
I can't remember where I got this from, but I like to ask them to talk to me about their favourite project. It can be school, hobby or work, just something they are excited about. Then we talk about what made them excited, what design tradeoffs they considered, the problems they ran into, how they overcame problems, what they would do differently knowing what they know now, and so on.

My favourite answer was a guy who replied "I've been working recently on some OpenGPL stuff in Common Lisp for the X window protocol". That was an interesting chat, and I was happy when he accepted the offer I made at the end of it.
We are having this conversation assuming a society which rejects slavery in principle. Given that rejection, I don't see how past history of enslaving people is relevant to questions of the future–unless one supposes that rejection is going to be reversed at some point, which seems unlikely.
LemonSqueezy didnt exist when Gumroad changed the pricing. Lemon has some hidden fees on top of the 5% but they are a lot cheaper. Stripe checkout is not Merchant of Record so completely different product.

The company that was (still is) eating Gumroad is Paddle that have true 5% + 50¢ pricing.

Gumroad, Lemon, Paddle all do digital files fulfilment. Paddle wont give you website just pay links / overlay. I guess thats main reason why some people choose Gumroad/Lemon over Paddle.
As soon as you collaborate with more people, 80 charactars becomes a valid target for line width. Eventually you'll have someone reading your code in a manner that is hardly pleasant with lengths of 200 characters or more:

- Someone using a Braille display
- Someone with a vision impairment (i.e. high scaling factor; common occurence during ageing)
- A group of people that doesn't sit close to the display
- Someone with a low-DPI (or small) display due to the normal workplace being unavailable

While you could, of course, disregard all these scenarios, the sheer amount of people profiting from or requiring a character limit on lines is usually grounds for a restrictive policy regarding this topic.
You might consider it silly, but as long as there is no reliable way to convert between these "styles of presentation" you will find that many people prefer to err on the safe side.
You see, that just doesn't lend itself as nicely to tribal parroting of worse than mediocre developers here in the comments (if such people are able to code at all).
You find it meaningful, I find it disgusting, and furthermore it calls the entire "court" into question. It's pretty obvious this is not a real court, and it should be ignored by all.

Why did they wait 7 months?

If the Netherlands had any morals they would have ejected these clowns long ago.
I have been in the boonies, lived in the "hood" and seen plenty of illegal activity in younger days. Throughout all that crime and poverty the most dangerous people I encountered were the boys in blue. Holding cops accountable for their actions and taking their long guns and tanks away will certainly move the "safety needle" far more than any other single thing in the US today.
>https://space.stackexchange.com/questions/1308/why-are-there...

> Sure, "easily".

The top post of the link is talking about building a ship with a diameter of 200m. In reality you would just need a tether and counterweight. So yes, as far as new space technology goes, "easily."

> No it won't, for a very, very simple reason:

> Every single kilogram of stuff you launch from the moon, has to be launched FIRST... etc

That is the entire point of building out the moon. Sure the investment is difficult, but the longterm return makes it worthwhile. Your argument seems similar to saying "why would we build a steel foundry, when we will need steel to build it in the first place."

> How do you see us developing the technology for humans to leave the solar system if we never develop the technology to visit the moon? etc..

The technological difficulty with going to the moon is way more than just rocketry. There's life support systems, shielding, navigation, long term space habitation etc... There are literally hundred if not thousands of technologies that will need to be refined over time, and manned moon missions will go a long way to advancing them.

> But you do need to cheat our current understanding of physics for FTL travel.

My point was that you do not need ftl to travel through space.
>The fact that they are performed by a self-aware human is completely irrelevant to the setup

Granted, but we can easily create a more clear example that addresses both of your objections, right? Say in the room is a colorblind person with a machine that detects properties of color.

If someone now asks you questions about colored objects you can answer them, but I assume you grant that neither the colorblind person, nor the machine, nor the two as a system have conscious experiences of color vision as you have. The conscious experience has nothing to do with function. Every physical property you can describe without necessary experiencing any of it.

And I don't think your assertion about Searle's belief is correct. (or at least I don't believe that). If you fully simulated a physical brain, down to the atom, I think the experience in the simulation is probably equivalent to the experience outside. But if you merely model outward functions of conscious agents, behavior that is, there's no reason at all to assume all those systems must be conscious or have experiences.
A terrorist organisation is what typically a government stamp on that group for using terror to gain political advantages, those against it. Such government may use terror tactics which it would stamp as national security, preemptive actions, necessary interventions, collateral damage. Anything to justify what could be qualified as brutal unjust "terrorism".

On that basis all of the targets of the ICC are leaders of terrorist organisations. Hamas is considered terrorist organisation by certain authorities, you bet the Israeli government is considered terrorist by other authorities.

The ICC is meant to act on the evidence of war crimes. The definition of war crimes is far more formal than the qualification of terrorism. Consider giving a definition of terrorism, you will find that any arm belligerent who happen to cause civilian casualties can be categorized as such.

Finally, it is also worth noting the french resistance to the country's occupation and Nazism was considered led by terrorist groups. Those did employ sabotage, kidnapping, bombing, instill terrors. The collaborating french authorities and the Wermacht put those resistants on their terrorists lists, back then.

The ICC is surely meant to be above the arguments in the lines "these terrorists and those aren't", or politically and some government's biases as arguments. It would look into the evidence and prosecute based on these.
Pretty much any modern webpage you visit in your phone’s browser is going to fingerprint and identify you to an extremely granular degree. Tons of popular applications farm and sell data to a crazy degree. Yes, one can not use them, but the list of apps that do not do this is vanishingly small and certain ones like facebook or whatsapp are sometimes completely unavoidable. The mobile ecosystem facilitates this in a way that is much harder to avoid on a mobile device than on a laptop, especially not for the non-advanced user. The iphone for instance tracks your location pretty much constantly to give you “helpful” reminders in maps to tell you that you successfully parked at work (which i never told them was my work). Just one example.
I was thinking in much more abstract terms. You have information from a webflow, at some point converted to an XML message, converted to database entry, again to a JSON document, combined with an Azure workitem, then sent to Salesforce.

At any one point the data can interact with other systems, travel through codebases each seeing the data through their types, legacy APIs, the same-(ish) new-(ish) RPC API and in each service the data is represented in its own internal quirky way.

Sure, throw Go in that mix, hell at this point the more merrier! :)
No they don't. People want to virtue signal that they are above the mindless masses that you can turn into easily with a modern phone. This is effectively the "I don't own a television" signaling of this decade. People want to be the kind of person that they think can "rise above" these things. They don't want to put in the ridiculous effort it would take, though.

Edit: Fair critiques that I don't think it is literally all virtue signaling. I certainly think there is something to be said for people that love to discuss how they don't like phones. What I was thinking more strongly there was people confuse their declared preferences with their actual preferences.
> I can tell you that there isn’t any wild game that can beat the cheapest of ground beef for flavor or usefulness.

Not even duck? That is a bit surprising.
Agreed, thus the need for radar. Thermal imaging can also see past fog fwiw, though it has other tradeoffs.
Seems to me that the actual, albeit unstated, goal of the Artemis program is to preserve the US's defence industrial base. In that light slow, expensive, progress is not a bug - slow and expensive are features.
> in the glove compartment but exercising self-control?

this example is very different from the others haha
There's a few reasons. You have to be aware that you're sinking time into your phone, realise that it is a problem and then exercise constant vigilance to keep from falling back into old habits, comparable to many other addictions. There's armies of marketers and psychologists working to try and glue your eyeballs to your screen and resisting that pull is non trivial for many. A dumb phone and a dedicated GPS unit along with a paper calendar works well for me during times when I feel like unplugging; no self control required.
Some companies still make them.
There are also arrest warrants sought for Hamas leadership that were excluded from the headline.

Edit: it does mention Sinwar.

> big 3 frameworks

The existence of "many other smaller frameworks" is nice because it provides additional options for developers, but does not diminish HTMX's utility or suitability to drive a web application.
Steve Ballmer was hoping people would call it "the one". This was also around the time that SkyDrive had to be renamed to OneDrive due to trademark issues with Sky.

I always judge corporations whenever they resort to "One" as a brand because it signals a total lack of creativity and is likely the result of executives fighting each other and settling on the most mundane and inoffensive concept to represent "it does everything".
what i want are dumb cars.
Support / condemnation will be staunchly factionally split from within all Western Nations. Speaking about a National Unified Will is ridiculous at this stage in history. Eventually, the anti-Israel faction will dominate everywhere except for one or two select Nations that does not include the US. Though, its possible that the US also stays loyal for an indefinite time period. Accurate predication for support / condemnation is rooted in deeper history and geopolitical logic than most people consider.
Probably most of the time you just want to crash, but that's a pretty easy requirement to satisfy. I don't think either approach has a particular advantage there.
Elite is a minority. I don't think minority means a group faces biases.

Competition is harder, kids are getting a head-start in every activity of life. What would have been an impressive final-year project when I was in university is something high schoolers are churning out as a bare minimum. How do we ready our kids (who are competitive) for this if not by ensuring that they don't miss out any opprtunities?

Note that this is specifically for kids who do show promise.
All sides in the Bosnian war (3-4 of them) did their best to save the lives of their civilians (not so much the civilians from the other sides, but Bosnia is sparsely populated). Hamas aims to get as many as possible civilians killed.
I’m intrigued! I’m up for a conversation if you want to hit me up at daniel at imal dot name. I’d love to hear more about what you’re up to.
That sounds suspiciously like a smart watch.
You're made that same comment several times in this thread. But:

- All gaming PCs are x86
- PS5 and Xbox are x86
- Handheld PCs (Steam Deck, Legion, etc) are x86

This is the market people are talking about when they say "gaming" and you know it.
Because when I dig further into how to do that, I often get blanks. Saying you will do that and being able to do it are two different things.

You might not understand how low the bar is here. If I ask 100 applicants to write a working function to calculate E=mc^2 for different values of m, 30+ just won't know where to start.

So when I ask how we might solve a problem I am not asking for the abstract 10000 foot view. I'm checking they can write simple code. Filters out a huge number of people, unfortunately.
In general, are the per-layer KV caches all independent of each other?

If we split a model layer-wise for inference across X GPUs, does the cache split as well?
What's frustrating about that is that a lot of the US's early efforts to not get involved in the ICC was to protect Henry Kissinger from prosecution, who, most objective observers tend to agree did commit or authorize multiple war crimes, from assassinations of Chilean leaders, to the carpet bombing of Indochina, particularly Cambodia, and others.

What you want in this kind of situation is for those symbols to be internal objects that cannot be written. Or perhaps symbols in a private system package, e.g.:

(sys:lit sys:clo nil (x) (+ x 1))

No program using symbols in the ordinary namespace will produce this object by accident. It has to use the sys: stuff and when it does that, the language specification can say that it's sticking the proverbial fork into the proverbial toaster.
Given >1 mutually incompatible moral directives, people filter them through their personal moral code and generate the most compliant behavior they can.

Sometimes that behavior seems illogical or inconsistent, but if the problem is unsolvable... can we judge whatever comes out?

"My job is to accurately analyze chemicals" + "My job is to protect the company" + "My job is to protect the public" is a hard set to satisfy.
You're correct, they only killed maybe 10000 children instead of 20000. I guess the bar is at like 15000 children? If Israel goes above that then they are bad, until the goalpost is moved again.

I recently embarked on a journey to make myself a "dumbphone". I started with an iPhone 12 mini, removed every app possible and kept Phone, Contacts, Messages, Camera, Photos, and Safari with a 15 minute daily limit. My main motivations for going with iPhone were

1. Get to keep iMessage

2. Get to keep a good camera with easy photo syncing

3. Browser when really needed

4. App store for emergencies

5. I eventually added Bitwarden (for passwords) and iCloud Files, for when I need email attachments (PDFs) without access to email.

I also enabled lockdown (didn't contribute much to the dumb experience) and black & white color filter. It's fine, and I do use it a lot less when out and about, but I've had many inconvenient moments in the first couple months

1. Rented a Uhaul, which basically required a smartphone to complete the checkout process. Got away with not having it because Uhaul seems to have lots of issues even with smartphones and let me slide

2. I should probably add Maps back, for obvious reasons.

3. Having to ask everyone I communicate with through an app (via website these days) for their number before leaving the house, otherwise there's no way to get in touch. Burned me a couple times meeting up for bike rides etc. (no Strava on phone)

4. Having to tell someone I'll pay them back (Venmo etc) "when I get home" is awkward at best.

5. Haven't needed an Uber yet, but will probably have to install that at some point.

6. Will have to go back to paper boarding passes and such, I suppose

Overall I use the phone less... recently had a Dr appointment and was flabbergasted to be the only person in the waiting room who didn't look at their phone once, let alone stare at it the entire time. But that said, I had already removed all social media from my phone for many many years. So the improvement was marginal and the inconveniences have definitely been there.

Ultimately, I think removing any app that causes you to scroll mindlessly (social media obviously, but also any news, video, etc.) and setting screen time limits for need to haves like Browser will be as far as most people should go.
>Bullitt, the licensed manufacturers of the CAT S-22 I purchased, folded the day before my phone arrived. Despite the news, I tried the hardware for about a week. It let me call, text and access the messenger functions of a couple of apps I used to stay in touch with friends and family. My total web use dropped to just an hour a day. I was better able to concentrate on my surroundings, books and music. But I missed my library app.

People may say they want dumbphones. But their actual choices reveal something different, which is why dumbphone manufacturers don't make money.
That is actually an amazing idea. I'll adopt it.
I replaced my dumbphone last year. I was both surprised at the large size of the selection, and disappointed at the quality of the selection. HMD is still selling Nokia-branded S30+ phones, nearly frozen in time, which is good and bad - the main downside is that MMS support is just as limited as it has always been. KaiOS which I once hoped would become a strong competitor is still quite sluggish and most phones running it have all sorts of advertising built into the phone UI. There are some AOSP based phones like Sonim that are pretty decent, but their battery life isn't as good as old dumb phones. Then there are all the hip new minimalist phones (that are the subject of this article), which cost way more than I wanted to spend.

The biggest disappointment to me was the lack of 5G. Not because I need the improvements 5G brings on a dumbphone, but because the reason I was replacing my old phone was because all the 3G towers have been shutdown. It would have been nice to have some future-proofing.
Being requested concurrently, by the same prosecutor. See, for example, the title and the first couple paragraphs of the article.
They closed the ticket 12 minutes after that comment. It seems unlikely a coincidence. If someone wanted a reason to shut this down that comment gave them all the ammunition they needed. Don't forget, Google is not a singular entity and is made up of individuals with differing opinions, some of which are pro and some against jpegxl, but like any human social group, if you cause them to feel that one of their own is being attacked they are almost certain to close ranks.
One big caveat to this - the difference between people's stated and revealed preferences. They say they want one thing, but when push comes to shove they choose differently.

Here's an example specifically with phones. Consumers in surveys and on social media would constantly say that they wanted small phones. They were insistent that Apple listened and made a fantastic mini version of the iPhone 11. It was universally praised by reviewers as a perfect small phone. And ... it underperformed heavily. Somehow Apple, a company that prides itself on its supply chain and ability to predict demand for its products overestimated the demand. Consumers didn't actually buy the phone like they said they would.

No matter, maybe it was a one-off. Maybe enough people hadn't heard of it. Maybe they weren't in the right point of the upgrade cycle. People still say they want it! So Apple tried again. iPhone 12 mini. Universally praised. Again, heavily underperformed.

Apple never made a mini phone after that. You know what they did do? Added a larger Plus version.

So when he article says "People want dumbphones", take that with a pinch of salt. Instead it should say "People say they want dumbphones."
Press release: "We're halting all arms shipments to Israel". There's even a legal basis for it, the so-called "Leahy laws" [1]. Israel cannot exist without hte largesse and political cover the United States provides.

I agree about solving the underlying issues and the injustices that have historically taken place but the above is intended to answer the question and engage in analysis rather than arguing the merits, which is likely an unproductive conversation.

Perhaps reduce the number of acceptable civilian casualties per target?

It is public info that Israel is fine with killing up to 15-20 civilians for every lowest-ranked Hamas member.

That is a ridiculously high figure in my opinion. I'd be lying if I said I didn't expect to witness something on such scale somewhere in the world during my lifetime, but I certainly didn't expect a modern-day "western" "democracy" to get away with it.
One thing that has continued to baffle me about Excel is the fact that they force worksheet tabs and the scrollbar to co-exist in the same pane. Why in the world can I not have a full horizontal scrollbar and a full width tab collection?
Not that I disagree with your overall point, but I don't think this

> I was doing some contract work for a small place that had a GCP Bigtable that was costing $11k+ per month for some reports that were based on data from a 375MB !!! mysql db into big-table for the reports to run.

Is a good example. It's just a badly architected system, and you'd have exactly the same problem if you were running the same thing on a massively over provisioned on premise db.
> The challenge is this approach flies in the face of so many of the messages parents are getting about admissions to selective colleges. At a recent event hosted by her 17-year-old daughter’s high school, “the college counselor was talking about kids’ essays, saying that teens should tie their passions and interests to what they want to major in,” she says. “To be pre-med, these teens are expected to already have volunteered in a hospital or a lab.

This is the root cause of the madness. Colleges insist on weighing these activities heavily in admissions decisions, so parents have no choice but to force their kids to jump through the hoops. It's a Prisoner's Dilemma problem: If parents all at once decided cooperatively that enough was enough, it would end. But any single parent who chooses "defect" and pushes their kid towards "activities" will be rewarded with an edge in admissions, so everyone else must choose "defect" and we're all worse-off because of it.

Colleges need to get their heads out of their asses. Is my kid really going to be a better student because she volunteered at a hospital or played high school softball?
