I think it’s worth pointing out that there are two “big bang”s. There’s the supposed singularity, which is what it seems we’re talking about here. And there’s the expansion that immediately follows the singularity. We have good evidence for the latter, and the former is on much shakier ground than is widely understood.
> And i do not want to upgrade all applications if there is a bug in, say, libpng or libfreetype.

I don't think many people have problems with the idea that core system libraries could be dynamically linked. But Linux distros take this to a ridiculous extreme. I absolutely do not care if a bug in libgmp means my package manager updates the 2 apps I have installed that use it instead of 1 library.

Would be really interesting to see some actual stats about this though. How many library projects do people have installed that are depended on by more than say 3 apps? I'm guessing it's under 100.

I think that's the approach Flatpak takes with it's "runtimes" and it seems like a very sensible one.
Sadly, the "lifetime license" only includes one year of updates.
Yes. Limewire came out a bit later. All the apps with the same protocol could talk to each other. Initially mine was open sourced as well. I close sourced it after selling it to a company.
Show HN: AI Puzzle Game Using Your Own Face
I loved playing 2048 back in high school. Recently, I decided to learn more about gen AI so I built a 2048-like game that uses faces instead of numbers. You can create a custom game mode with your face or play one of the four default game modes. Let me know what you think!

That's similar to what the author says in the second paragraph. But he goes on to consider many other subtle notions arising from the fact that the complex field is not rigid. How can we tell i from -i? They have all the same properties with respect to the field structure.
Right. Everytime nginx comes up someone has to bring up how much better caddy is. After using nginx everywhere for nearly two decades I have no desire to learn a new tool. Nginx does everything I want, even some exotic stuff and plugins for certain use cases. It is highly configurable, has plenty of good documentation, is well supported in every distro, and is extremely performant. I don't care how much easier caddy is and that it can configure certs for me. I prefer the unix philosophy anyway, and it's not like I'm spending a significant amount of time on nginx configs or certs. I use acme.sh for certs it only takes a couple minutes to provision a new instance with nginx and acme.sh, just the way I want it. End rant.

Both of them have ridiculous backlogs. The A320 family has yet to deliver ~7,000 jets out of ~18,000 ordered, and the 737 Max family has only delivered 1,500 jets out of 6,270 orders.

At this point if you're an airline that has to put in a new order, you're not going to see the new jets for close to a decade.

If that's your definition of BS, then there's basically no vehicle on the market for you, with any energy source. But we can read the subtext: you want an EV but don't want to buy a Tesla.

My advice to you is to rent a Model 3/Y LR for a few weeks from Turo or wherever and see if your actual problems are with the actual technical details you think are your problem. Most likely they're not, and in fact you're probably going to recoil from the idea of driving the car at all. In which case, well, at least you know to have the fight on the right grounds.

That's not quite true. There's overall a big, distributed and decentraliszed effort to archive our electronic past, it's not just archive.org. For example, it's fun to look at old newsgroup discussions from 1994, and it's something I can find at Google's archive. And more importantly, it's available to everybody. And it's not the only place to find historical internet stuff.

I do agree though that archive.org is too valuable a resource to ever lose.

Google also isn't perfect. There was a post the other week about how there were no searchable images on Google older than ... I don't remember, 2005?

It’s bizarre isn’t it. We live in a world where people are slinging lies about the place, deliberately, for monetary or political gain.

And yet a lot of contributors here see no difference between that and factual information or honest reportage.

I'm sorry but you really sound like you judge APLs from an outsider pov. For sure, it's not job security that's keeping APLs afloat, because APLs are very easy to learn.

It's another instrument for each performer to learn to play (operate) simultaneously along with whatever they were doing on the same tunes before.

If the communication feature is highly taken advantage of, then the engineer(s) almost have to be considered like band members and work toward mastering this additional instrument right along with the musicians for best results.

And this includes rehearsals, so many things are sensible to rehearse many times before performing the first time, and this is one of them. Kind of depends on how much mastery of an instrument a band expects before they feel comfortable appearing live doing it. Mastery doesn't come overnight, so rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. When you're just starting out on anything you've got a long way to go before it's pro level, so you should know what your objective is, and put in the effort if that's what you want to do.

I know a musician who joined a band where the bass player's father was an engineer about my age and bought or rented pro gear as appropriate for their booked-up gigs. IEM was required and they were able to make their pop tunes sound like the originals live. Regardless if they were in a venue where they could have heard themselves or the mix very well or not. They worked hard to get the most out of it, but got worthwhile benefits from the beginning. It was one of the secret weapons that other bands playing the same locations didn't have, but a good engineer by themself is a big part of that.

OTOH in the studio I always used traditional over-ear headphones and vocal mics for the musicians to talk to me through the glass, and they got the live radio broadcast mix in the phones but I encouraged them to set the headphones down after each talk session because more often than not vocalists (and other acoustic players) will hold back a bit rather than wail.[0] Sometimes I would tell them "You already know you sound good !" There was no physical separation of musicians and no fully isolated instruments to mix from, no noisy crowd either so it had to sound OK in the room to begin with, no real reason to hear what's going out over the air. I'll take care of that my dang self. This is when it came out sounding best. Even if it would have been more "precise" with personally crafted monitoring. Some players or vocalists would prefer the headphones for the isolation from the other players and that is just fine too, I tried to see if they were then OK with a very reduced volume on their phones, and they always had a personal volume control at their disposal.

[0] As we know, the opposite can be true if any vocalist, amateur or not, just listens to an everyday loud song on the headphones, and sings along with it even louder since they can't hear themselves at all. Lots of them definitely don't hold back whatsoever ;)

The problem is that "move fast and break things" kind of people are terrible at that kind of work.

I was in car sales and was top 0.1% nationwide at it. Eventually I moved into management. And while sales for the dealership as a whole went up considerably, paperwork became a nightmare. The office lady's were at their breaking point after 6 months and wrote to the owner that in their 30 years of managing the dealership back office, they had never seen such bad paperwork processes.

Sometimes the people good at driving things forward are terrible at cleaning up after themselves.
Phoenix native here. The people who have lived here a long time know how to adjust to the heat. You really have to live “another way”. People who come to town are completely unprepared. It feels like LA weather from October until May, and then suddenly it’s very hot.

You can’t live “normally” when it’s over 115, with a low of 93 at 5 am. There’s tons of unofficial lifestyle rules to survive well. For example before you drive you “cool down your car” by turning on the air conditioning and washing the car by running the hose all over it (even though that water is also hot lol). Cooling off your car that’s been sitting in the hot sun with water allows the air to actually work.

Tons of stuff like that. You need to drink cold water with electrolytes and I find everyone’s diet changes. People eat less, and eat spicier Mexican food and salt.

It’s a real special environment. I personally believe the June July August and first half of Sept heat challenges are worth the desert beauty of the rest of the year.
> Farr, who lives in Carmel, […] gave me a history of the area. Originally the homeland of the Esselen people, it was mostly avoided by Spanish colonizers because of the steepness with which the mountains descended to the sea. Ranchers and farmers only began settling there in significant numbers in the late nineteenth century. Construction of the highway—which entailed blasting cliffsides, filling canyons, and felling redwoods, along with dumping a massive amount of debris into the ocean, possibly contributing to the extinction of the local abalone population—began in the nineteen-twenties;

As usual, the people who want to be like HIGHWAY BAD neglect to mention the railroad which preceded the highway by 40 years and which would have continued further south into Big Sur had it not been stopped by the fine people of Carmel building a giant ecologically-unnatural golf course community (a place which costs money to even drive through on 17 Mile Rd) that capped off its southern end.

With caddy this is not true, unless you have compiled in your own plugin (custom or frankenphp), right?

All I was asking is what they thought the language runtime for caddy was.

> I don't want anyone to know how many devices I have at home

Even if your ipv6 host or border firewall allows pings through, it's not practical to scan an entire /64. There's just too many addresses in it, and your devices will frequently change them.

> I don't want anyone to know which one I'm using to access their website, I don't want anyone to try guess the OS and version of my devices, etc.

They already do this through fingerprinting that operates with higher-layer protocols.

> And now I'm scared to have a simple DLNA media server because I can't just install WireGuard on the TV.

This is very simple to implement. Ensure it's listening on the link-local address. That's the IP that starts with fe80. These are unrouteable by spec.
I have thought that Matter should have a time broadcast message that can be sent over Wifi, Bluetooth, and Thread. Which should be enough to set the time for any Wifi device that doesn't need NTP, and low-power devices with Bluetooth and Thread.

One problem is that need to pair with Wifi, Bluetooth, and Thread. The other problem is the cost to add time sync. And probably couldn't remove the UI for setting the clock because need it for people without technology.
From a spec standpoint, acoustic modems were building over wires spec'd for bidirectional voice transmissions, i.e. symmetrical.

I'm curious about the nuances, but it seems like the last mile download/upload imbalance was created by the originating signal mode?

Download = First mile internet to ISP could be upgraded to digital, and thus grab some extra throughout by avoiding analog noise handling

Upload = First mile user to ISP was inherently analog over phone lines, and so sacrificed throughput for line noise tolerance

We’ve generally been happy with Aurora, but we run into gotchas every so often that don’t seem to be documented anywhere and it’s very annoying.

Example: in normal MySQL, “RENAME TABLE x TO old_x, new_x TO x;” allows for atomically swapping out a table.

But since we moved to Aurora MySQL, we very occasionally get stuff land in the bug tracker with “table x does not exist”, suggesting this is not atomic in Aurora.

Is this documented anywhere? Not that I’ve been able to find. I’m fine with there being subtle differences, especially considering the crazy stuff they’re doing with the storage layer, but if you’re gonna sell it as “MySQL compatible” then please at least tell me the exceptions.
