That's why technically both sides should have experts. A lot of trials where experts are called devolve into simply a "battle of the experts" as the evidence is too close or too complicated.

Sadly, the prosecution often has an unlimited budget for experts and the defendant often has zero. The judge can rule that the state put up some funds for a defense expert, but this is usually a fraction of the cost that the prosecution spend.

Additionally, if you are being defended by a public defender or a cheap defense attorney then they will rarely file a motion for expert fees as they don't have the time to coordinate with an expert and go through the evidence to create a narrative for trial.

Furthermore, lawyers are trained in the law, not in things like forensic science, so if your lawyer knows nothing about the techniques being used to convict you then they won't be able to adequately cross-examine the prosecution's expert nor question their own expert (if they have one).

I think autism mild enough to not be diagnosed cannot possibly excuse somebody for shaking a baby, and as somebody with autism so mild that it went undiagnosed for 30 years I'm personally offended that anybody could believe otherwise.

There was an extensive collection of music (I should say that fair chunk of it is legitimate in that I own the original CDs from which the electronic copies were ripped, or I actually paid for the electronic copies - hi bandcamp!) which was neither hidden nor encrypted (and quite well organised if I do say so myself), and nothing at all was mentioned about that, and it was all still present when I got my gear back.

My understanding (and I have no specific actual knowledge or authority) is that, in the case of a raid, they can only charge you for crimes that are directly related to the reasons the raid was conducted in the first place. If they find evidence of other crimes it's essentially inadmissible because otherwise they wouldn't have found it, and "probable cause" (or some other concept like that) is required for the temporary suspension of rights required of a raid.

I'm not sure what would happen if they discover a corpse in the process of conducting a raid for growing weed though.

Not an exception, but to clarify the distinction, a while back a friend of mine had cause to request the police to attend his property (drunk person refusing to leave the house, or something along those lines) and whilst in his house the police noticed a couple of illegal firearms. Since the police were invited in, and the firearms were in plain sight, he was booked for possession of illegal firearms.

I think the primary difference is the invitiation versus 'temporary suspension of rights'.

In regards to "in plain sight", if law enforcement come to your door, make sure that they can't see whatever illegal shit you may have in your house from their position (since you haven't invited them in, but they're allowed to be on your doorstep and therefore look through the open door). This is likely true from any 'public' vantage point, such as through any of your windows.
And sadly the US justice system isn't designed for post-conviction changes. Typically whatever happened at trial is set in stone, even if it's inherently absurd. Errors of law are easier to get fixed than errors of fact which are normally not touched by appellate courts.

I really appreciate all technical solutions to our battle against climate change. Yet I fear all these gains are without any value as long as any increase in efficiency is eaten by our economies relianze on constant growth.

This is the root climate challenge as it drives all the incentives to exceed our energy/CO2-budgets. Turns out we are witnessing what happens when you run exponentially growing feedback into the logistic function.

Many are sceptical whether we can solve this capitalism-problem without fundamental changes to the system, that would leave you with a system that is no longer about capital. I am convinced there are many ways to solve that, but first we have to acknowledge the driving force behind climate change isn't technology, it is the need to grow markets and populations.
Steelmaking takes place around 1650C. Getting up to molten steel temperatures is hard.

Yes, you could potentially use waste heat from a reactor to preheat the tundish, and maybe the scrap and ladle. Nucor preheats using natural gas to save on electricity. No need to bring everything up from room temperature on electric power. A nuclear reactor immediately adjacent to a steel caster is probably not a great idea.

If you want something more tangible than old demos, try HaikuOS. It works wonderfully from a usb drive.

I’m too young to have known BeOS (well I was a kid in the nineties so not too young but afaik, BeOS was pretty rare (overall and) at home. However I’m old enough to have known OSes that were build around offline usage and that’s what I loved trying Haiku is that it remembers me when your OS was made to use your computer, not to be an internet client.

I feel that having your emails as files is a good example of that : you connect to the internet to get your mails. You disconnect. You want to work to those mails on another computer ? No problem, just copy paste them on a USB d… I mean floppy disk, answer your mails put the answers on your floppy disk and send them tonight when you’re back home.

It may feel pretty cumbersome when we have today’s tools but that’s the feeling I feel I lost : owning my data not only legally but physically. And not only physically but physically in a useful way.

It remembers me the time when you just had to understand simple abstractions like files and folders and windows to own the computer (and you were just learning some programming language away to master it).

Imo markets tend to have 2 trajectories. Either the market leader builds a moat that precludes competition (often through semi-illegal means).

Or the companies engange in fierce competition and the big players will either outspend or outproduce or straight up buy their competitors which tends to result in either monopolies or oligopolies with barely any competition.

Never seen this before, as a person who has grieved considerably but won't/doesn't read grief literature.

I came to the conclusion years ago that grief is just unexpressed, unshareable, uncommunicable, thwarted love. It's all the love I cannot give, all the words and touches and moments that fail to alight on the one I love but instead, missing its intended, affix me to the void.

So not merely entwined, I think grief is love itself unsatisfied.

I think it's much better that ordinary people actually are active participants in how money is made and value is created, and have some control of their own destinies, even if that pushes some burden onto the individual.

The alternative is having the worldview that money is something that shows up on your bank account on the first days of the month.
In France it's even worse as the State experts are assumed to be Right and there is no intended procedure for the defense to hire their own experts, at least not in a way where both sides would discuss on an equal foot.

> Right to repair is a nice idea and it's heart is in the right place, but won't ever work for something like a consumer phone.

Why not? Every major phone manufacturer uses numerous techniques to make devices unrepairable and yet people still find ways to fix them. I'm not a hardware engineer, but I have fixed multiple devices, and I have no special skills or equipment besides standard ifixit toolkits. The only hindrances are introduced by manufacturers themselves. Replacing or refunding devices doesn't reduce e-waste, on the contrary.

I can't get behind what you're saying but I am curious to hear your take. Why do you think right to repair "won't ever work"?

I ran Win310 on a Am496DX4 (100MHz) with 4MB FPM memory. I don't remember ever complaining it was slow.

The first time I remember complaining something was slow was Win98 start menu. Win95 kept it all in memory. Win98 read all the .lnk files every time the user clicked Start. First opening was atrociously slow because the files were not in cache. It was something like 2-3 seconds delay, while Win95 was instantaneous.

I used them for COVID-19 testing, still have their reader, but they are expensive, device warming up takes forever, the battery drains pretty quickly, it charges slowly, and sometimes the kits just fails, and you have to throw them away, and contact them to request a replacement.

m7i CPU is in the same ballpark figure than m7a (https://runs-on.com/benchmarks/aws-ec2-instances/).

But I suppose it depends on availability in their specific zones.

Ah thank you. One idea (btw love what you are doing).

Scrum isn’t so much a tool but an ill defined framework. The Get out of Jail Free Card the author refers to is abusing this lack of definition to brush off any failed attempts at applying the framework. The author continues to imply if there’s so many failures to apply the framework, that’s probably a failure inherent to the framework itself, at least as it is deployed today.

>> debunked "shaken baby syndrome" theory

> Are you telling me that shaking babies doesn't kill them?

It sure can, and a number of babies diagnosed with SBS have been abused or killed.

However, the way shaking is typically inferred from a small set of supposedly characteristic medical findings (radiological and pathological evidence of blood in the layers surrounding the brain and at the back of the eyes) has a weak scientific evidence based — determining abuse requires a far more sophisticated approach.

You are burying the lead here.

This is a big deal, competitors like Onyx Boox don't do this.

And yes, it's annoying.
I think its twofold.
On the one hand, people don't like the CEO types that are present everywhere, hyping up anything and who always must give their five cents. The likes of Musk and Sam Altman. I include myself in this group, I for example hate how people literally still buy into the Elon Musk is our world's iron man narrative.

On the other hand, if it's about companies, I think the issue is more complex.
Partially it might be jealousy of Silicon Valley (I know MS is not based there) and their working environment and salaries.
But it is also criticism of the tech bubble. Developers outside of that small region are no idiots either...and sometimes they get tired of the vibes being sent out by all the SV hype people...like anything there is great and will change the world and anything not from there is unimportant and dull.
I think yes, there are some world-changing things happening in the valley and also in those companies, but a big chunk of the rest is just overabundance of capital that people just need to park somewhere so they throw it at idiotic startup ideas.
This capital was generated by reaping in profits (Meta, Google) from all over the world by avoiding taxes through questionable corporate constructs.
See google, they make money by selling ads. They only can do that because of the population in their target country and how much those people can spend. This again depends on domestic investments like infrastructure and education, payed for by taxes that google don't contribute to.

This is at least my source of scrutiny when looking at all those players.
But to be fair, I don't hate (all of) them.
Let me second some other comments here - I would absolutely buy a 24“ display right away. Ideally a colored version. The available options (like Sun Vision) seem sketchy at best, eg their UK rep reached out to me and never responded back - no way I‘d pay them this much without ever seeing the display first.
lock-screen access to homekit is a regular offender for example

Thanks for the feedback. I agree that the performance improvements are the biggest win here. The PWA support is essentially the starting point, bringing installation and file association. Next up, we'll tackle file save using the File System API (instead of relying on sending exported scenes to the Downloads folder). I'm also keen to implement an offline mode (via Service Worker) soon too. Almost all SuperSplat users launch it in a desktop OS...so the PWA testing was done there. But out of curiosity, what should we tackle to make the experience great on mobile in your view?
40GB (movie in Photos) + 40GB (saved file) = 80GB > 64GB total storage space on device.

Hi just a minor nitpick - I've used devices like this, and one major complaint about them is that the tips of the Wacom styluses are incredibly fragile (about as bad as pencil lead).

It has been a recurring issue for me that they got damaged while traveling with no way to easily replace them.

If you could engineer a way to protect them (like a proper cap or a clicky pen mechanism) that would be a very handy improvement.
I too had a manual checklist like the author and dragged my feet on a proper solution. Now I have a dotfiles repo with a script that installs homebrew, installs everything in a brewfile, then uses chezmoi to do all my system and shell customization. I’ll eventually get it to the point where I can copy and decrypt secrets, RSA keys, and the likes, as well as support multiple uses (work vs personal) and OSes.

The benefit to this is less about new system setup (I don’t buy a new laptop every time the battery goes) and more about synchronizing my settings across machines.
