A lot of people talking about the details, does not constitute official documentation though.

You can find a lot of articles talking about SQL Server's DBCC IND and DBCC PAGE, but that isn't official documentation – they are essentially internal functions and not supported and could change or go away entirely despite having been around for many versions, as they have in Azure). Similarly there articles talking about sys.dm_db_database_page_allocations which sort-of does the job of DBCC IND, but again this is not officially documented & supported.

> I am uncertain what you mean by "external interface".

I meant the published interface. Maybe "supported API" would have been a better phrase to use?

Though as pointed out below, there is at least some official documentation on the MFT structure.

The one issue I had with Go when poking at it years ago was that it seemed to have fairly strict opinions on directory structure. It felt like if your project wants to use Go it had better be about Go. It was immediately in conflict with the other code I had going on in the library and where on my disk I wanted to put things.

Software complexity following an ideal gas law is an analogy that works in a ton of ways… time (you’ll keep adding stuff until you’re running close to a deadline at which point you have to actually decide what to cut), head count (complexity will rise to match the number of people working on it, since people aren’t just gonna sit idle), speed (it’ll get slower until it’s “noticeable” on the dev’s machine, at which point it gets optimized), etc etc etc.

I’ve tried to use this analogy to PM’s who have trouble understanding why adding more engineers to a project doesn’t make it go faster: the software expands to fill its container.
We have records of other galaxies right now. Assuming we manage to preserve those and humanity over these kinds of time scales, our descendants would be able to access those records and learn that other galaxies once existed that are beyond their cosmic horizon now.

Note that Huang was the founder of Nvidia - he's not a naked ladder climber like Pichai or Krzanich at Intel previously. Huang made good moves with CUDA, being early on tensor cores by being forward looking.

Some companies have a real usecase for generative AI, but it's something like 5% of these stories. The rest is CEOs FOMOing

The CEO was probably convinced to make a nebulous jump into AI by AI-generated blog spam, leading me to think that WaPo will soon be no better than the average SEO-seeking high-volume, no quality sites that unfortunately litter my search results.

Question to OP: What do you see as the primary benefits of Linux compared to macOS? Do you ever feel that you would miss a broader selection of proprietary applications? If I switched back to Linux again (after eleven years) I think I would miss nice Mac applikations, like the Acorn image editor. But maybe these days there are not too many applications that I would not find a good alternative for.

And you can do all these things smoothly with rust's cargo: use a local relative path, use a git URL, or use a published package name. It's perfect if you want to try and hack around a dependency.

It's not because the tooling is better, which also happens to be true by far, but because they didn't tie themselves down to a domain name scheme. Funny, given that go waited a long time to take a shot.

Though all the sub-pages of that state things like “[This structure is valid only for version 3 of NTFS volumes; it may be altered in future versions.]” — while it is true that any API could see breaking changes in future, this suggests that you should expect them, so I'd not call it supported in the same sense of the main file/directory access APIs which I would not expect to see breaking changes in (additional properties & functionality yes, but not existing things changing behaviour).

Hi!

Thanks for the feedback!

Good point on the Kraftfile syntax and as you've seen, there is a reference document. We can make sure to place a link to this in all guides.

The term "KraftCloud Specification" is in fact incorrect, this should just be "`Kraftfile` specification".

We are working on providing a "Unikraft Hub". Since unikraft.org is a public OCI registry and it works through many popular tools like `crane` or `regtool` as well as our native `kraft` CLI tool; you can actually view it locally by running `kraft pkg ls --all --apps --remote`.

Thanks again for the feedback! We'll get on to updating the docs to make these bits clearer!
Health optimization based on literature searches is a fool's errand. A certain niche segment of the "worried well" is constantly reading studies (often of questionable quality) and chasing marginal gains with the latest drugs, supplements, recovery modalities, or whatever. Meanwhile they still have poor sleep hygiene, insufficient exercise, and unresolved emotional problems. Major in the major, minor in the minor.

Those other agent features could be useful, though.
What is worse is that we going to have a new watershed moment when all companies using AI broke all the rules (privacy, accuracy, etc.) and in a few years we have hearings in the House “How could this happen??” Same as when we could download the whole Facebook graph in the past without much of a hickup.
So in that sense it's a good thing that "Open" AI are just as venal and stupid on small shit like this as on those bigger and more serious issues. So the great unwashed, with their limited attention spans (and, TBF, realistically much less insight on the big underlying issues), can see for themselves, in terms they can grasp, what a-holes they are.

ETA: Seems to work on non-IT mundanes, at least. Not on tech-bro fanbois, of course, which seem to be the only kind of people defending "O"AI / Altman here.

I think we’ve already begun to see a three-part split in the media industry.

The first part are brand-driven entities. These are places which live on their reputations (deserved or not) and play up this “unique” aspect. This includes The NY Times, Fox News, most individual commentary writers on Substack, and top magazines like The New Yorker.

The second part are information-driven entities. These continue to exist because they have certain information that is worth paying for. This includes Bloomberg, the Financial Times, and the more professional Substack writers like Sinocism.

The third part are entities which have neither an amazing brand nor a unique collection of information, but otherwise still (for now) have some giant pool of resources or financial backing. These include the Washington Post (which hasn’t been a truly national brand name since Nixon), the LA Times, and most of the middle ground of the media industry.

My prediction is that groups 1 and 2 will not implement much AI, and if they do, it won’t be announced. Group 3 will implement it as much as possible in an attempt to be relevant and cut costs. Whether that actually works remains to be seen.

The company I am currently at has changed the domain name for the inner Gitlab server three times in two years. The older domain's are tentatively supported but they behave differently in respect to authorization so... we had to switch our imports whole-sale, or the builds would just keep breaking for no apparent reason.
There are other videos here: https://daylightco.gorgias.help/en-US#article-493382 . That one video appears to have been sped up, my guess is to try to show a "summary" of functionality. I tried a few of the other videos and they don't appear to be sped up.

What if they hired 10 different voice actors with no intent to have someone like SJ, but one voice actor actually did sound like from Her so they liked it the most and decided to go with it. And if only after the fact they realized that it is quite similar to SJ in general and decided to reach out to her and also went along with the Her idea due to obvious similarities?

I've been doing that for years, but mainly because I noticed that I sleep by far the best on A350s for long-duration flights (I do Germany-Korea often). Also good but a bit less so was the A380. On Boeing planes I've never been as restful. I suspect it's something about the AC system or the NVH. It seems to hold true across airlines.
The world is fractal. The closer in you zoom, the more detail you see, possibly to an infinite level. So, yes, you can certainly learn a lot about everything, if you learn everything about something.
I think context matters; that specific video is meant to show a summary of the functionality; it's in a section called "ereader on steroids" and it doesn't say anything about speed. And there are a lot of other videos on the same page which are not sped up. https://daylightco.gorgias.help/en-US#article-493382

Labelling the speed would be nice, but I don't detect any bad intentions here.
There used to be reasons.

Back in the day, entirety pre-internet, they had research budgets, and actual, real investigative journalism. Don't confuse this with "investigative journalism" talk shows, that's modern drivel.

Such newspapers would deep investigate things for months, or years. Dig, do research, and large newspapers of old had the budget to defend themselves legally too.

That's gone. Completely gone.

Newspapers were always leaning one way or the other politically, but one knew that, and dealt with it, and had multiple sources to read.

News had traditionally been one of the pillars of democratic society. And it's now turned mega shallow.

Youtubers barely fill this void. Certainly there are advantages to this era, but you just can't get a complete parallel with blogs, and with youtube commentaries, even if they attempt deep dive.
Well, we can’t blame the AI for looking out for its own interests, can we?
AI Editor of course... (/s... I think?)
I guess that means I’m pivoting to not subscribing to the Washington Post.

Hopefully the journalists can start their own outlets like 404 media which I’ll happily pay for.
That was such a common technique that it's odd to talk about just one game in particular doing it.

There are far too many things that don't add up:

- According to reports we have photos resurfacing that are 10 years old [1]

- The oldest phone supported by iOS 17 is an iPhone 11 [2], hat was released in 2019. 2024-2019 = 5.

Explain how we see 10 year old photos resurfacing when the oldest phone supported is an iPhone 11 from 2019 and it is safe to assume that the photo resurfaced on a phone it was not taken on because the user MUST have switched phones in between as 10 year old models are not supported by iOS17.

How does that add up?

The explanation given to us is that the phone stores the images in two different locations [3]. Of course, on phones were storage space is scarce we store the same image twice. Makes perfect sense. And then they introduced deduplication in the filesystem to make up for the lost space or what?

Even if we assume that the photo is just added to the Photo.App database so that it is displayed there, then that doesn't explain why a deleted image from the Photo.app that still existed on the filesystem has not been readded to the Photo.app after a system update like we see now. So there has to be some mechanism that filters those files out, which means that it's done on purpose.

Another question is how did those files move between phones as we can assume users switched phones in between because of the supported devices of iOS17. Have they been part of the backup/restore process? If so, why? And why has nobody noticed that the backups became bigger and bigger?

Are we probably talking about a hand full of photos here? How come some got deleted and others didn't? What kind of a bug is that? And why do people also see voice messages reappear that have been deleted ages ago? [4]

I wonder what else will reappear and how Apple explains how all these files were moved between phones without bloating the backup and/or being stored somewhere in the cloud and not using space on the local storage.

There are many more questions I have on this, but it's interesting to see that even security researchers just come up with a quick answer and don't question the overall situation.

The consensus does not exist. The LNT model is convenient because it lends itself to easy measurement, and extremely low radiation exposure (e.g. non-nuclear work on a submarine) can't be tied to any specific risk. You wouldn't want an occupational health organization behaving in any other way.

On the other hand, LNT utterly fails to address the well-documented trend that people in areas of high background exposure experience lower rates of cancer. The mechanisms of this effect are not understood, though often hypothesized, nor is there any strong argument for a particular upper limit (though plenty of known examples, like smoking and frequent flying, lie beyond it.)

I wouldn't advise anyone microdose on radon, nor ignore the risk of radon if you're in the habit of keeping your modern home closed up... but this matter is not settled as you portray.
