This whole thing comes off as tone-deaf and deceptive even to me (who is all for COSS monetizing.) Warpstream was sponsoring Benthos, it sounds like they didn't get a great heads up of this happening, which makes the project owner sound self-serving. Then you renamed the repo and relicensed some connectors all in one go without giving anyone from the community a chance to opine or think about how this affects them.

Finally, Redpanda did some partnerships with vendors nobody cares about whose businesses are at risk to show how you are opening up the ecosystem.

It actually comes off as somewhat malicious and Ashley's note where he notes he didn't read the article also comes off as not caring about developers (even insofar as he has facts wrong -- if the plug APIs remain compatible this creates more choice for users.)
This is just because of culture and the tools that we use.

I rarely get this feeling when using Discord due to the culture if "just hanging out" in channels.

Some people in the channels I frequent will stream their screens by default, just in case anyone wants to see what they are playing at any given time.

All that behind said, I hope this model doesn't become an expectation for remote work, because constantly being forced to stream, or be present for long periods of time in voice channels sounds exhausting.

I consider this unlikely - it is at least an order of magnitude harder to land people there and get them back even if you already have the heavy rockets and experience required. The US remains the only country capable of repeating this feat within the next 10 years, in spite of the current timelines being ridiculously unrealistic, simply because it doesn’t have to guess quite as much and either already has or in the advanced stages of building the necessary technological base.
These are mostly photos that are ~20-60 years old of family members (many of whom are no longer around) I rarely take photos myself anymore, but it seems wrong somehow to just trash them - it’d be nice to be able to pass them on to future or younger generations, and have some small subset reprinted etc.
The creators of always sunny pulled that themselves just fyi. They decided as artists that they weren’t cool with it and I think that is their right as creators, personally.
Hah! Was it 2000 already!

Got one in 2001 and I was so proud of my AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1400 that I even accepted that loud noise from the cooler I used.

Although in hindsight, the money I spend for that luxury would have been better invested in other stuff, improving my life a bit more then a loud and noisy airplane turbine.
You can definitely decompile WhatsApp on Android to inspect it. I'm sure security researchers do this regularly, including those looking for a bug bounty that could be life-changing.
And then yes, Hotwire is just the next iteration of turbolinks.
I mean, even with political power, you would still need to find an organization structure that doesn't long-term trend towards this sort of behavior. Solving that probably requires similar type of thinking to algorithmically solving problems, it's just a different system. Of course you couldn't implement it without political power, but it is required nonetheless.
You cannot copyright algorithms. Ergo, the expression of an algorithm in one language is not a copyright violation of an expression of the same algorithm in a different language.

Of course, there's a gray zone: what about a reimplementation in the same language, but with different variable names? Those cases are why we have courts.

But ... if you figure out how to solve Rathbone's conjecture[0] and reveal the source code for it in C++, my reimplementation of that in Rust or Lua does not constitute a derivative work.

One exception would be if you managed to patent some feature of the algorithm (RSA comes to mind, or frequency-based colors for drawing waveforms). That's a different story.

Overthrowing a democratically elected government in a foreign country is hardly a civilized method.

And yes, Putin was competing economically and propagandistically, but when he won and Yanukovich declined to sign a bad [0] agreement, the US, instead of "folding up graciously" like the EU did, said "Fuck the EU" [1] and went ahead with the escalation and supporting the 'revolution'.

People were definitely experimenting with it before that. Developers were mostly using it to load direct server-side snippets of HTML, dynamically. It took the evolution of SOAP and (especially) JSON/RESTful APIs for it to start seeing mass adoption as the combined technology of "AJAX".

Prototype.js and jQuery had a big hand in the latter.

> performance doesn't matter for the staff to be paid.

That's not the case for the people who are in the key phase of establishing themselves as academics and who are generally not on permanent contracts. And for tenured staff, performance decides access to resources that may be as mundane as one's own research time.
Conversely, the problem is a mix of extremely shallow performance metrics and a paper-pusher system in which most people get bogged down by bureaucracy by the time they get tenure (or even earlier). This means that very few people have the peace of mind that allows them to focus on high-risk fundamental research. In European AI and CS, I would claim that the ones who manage to maintain focus essentially do this in their free time and get little reward for this; the alternative, i.e., building a strong franchise, is more rewarding in terms of performance metrics.

Not true. Birth rates fall in developed countries like clockwork. Access to opportunities and control over our reproduction slows the growth rate to or below replacement levels.

We grow until we develop then we stop.

> I ended up having better luck with simpler clips that have a single physical pin straight through, such that the header pitch is the same as the component. Then I bent the pins to the side in an alternating pattern, to give enough room to attach my individual wires.

I have had 100% the opposite experience :D. For whatever reason, the cheap clips quickly develop intermittent faults on some number of wires or the pin deforms hopelessly. You can tell the problem is getting worse when you have to maintain more pressure to hold the clip in place or do multiple reads and confirm that the sha1 hash of the dump file matches for the majority of reads!
What makes you think that your country is threatened?
ASP.NET WebForms had an "Ajax component" called UpdatePanel, that was just a div and a HTTP call to rewrite the whole div from server. Seems like the same to me :D

Unsafe in Rust is not unsafe in the same sense that C/C++ UB is unsafe.

Unsafe in Rust means "soundness cannot be statically verified, the language will insert runtime checks for you and perform a clearly defined action (panic) if they are violated".

Much ink has been spilled about "unsafe" in Rust being unfortunately named.
I believe renting is the weakest part of my idea, but I don't see why it can't be solved.

Maybe humans are allowed to own some maximum number of properties for the purposes of renting it out, and that number will decrease over time.

Maybe banks can own houses and rent them out at some capped amount.

Maybe the government can own houses and rent them out with the express purpose of "rent to own", with absolutely no intention of "earning a profit".

I don't have all the answers, but I think it's pretty clear that companies owning 40% of ALL residental homes in a city and making massive profit renting them out does not make housing affordable, and it does not allow people to have their basic human needs met. Therefore something needs to change.

> But... can’t it just fill a queue?

It /could/, yes. But then one has to also understand how govt. IT development works. You only get, barely, just what you ask for, and nothing more. So the likely reason for no queue is that whatever PM was responsible for writing the requirements that the IT contractor developed towards did not think to add a queue for 'after hours' requests.

And now, it is likely without a 'development budget' (as the bean counters considered it 'done' when it met the initial requirements) and with no 'development budget' allocation, there is no way to get a queue added.

This probably won't be popular, but the U.S. Supreme Court isn't really partisan either. A lot of its cases don't involve partisan issues in any case, but a majority of all the cases are decided 9-0, like this one.

The perception that the court is partisan comes from a lot of press attention on a very small number of 5-4 cases on controversial issues where the majority has clearly used motivated reasoning. That was the case in both Roe v. Wade and the case that overturned it, Dobbs, for example. On the current court some justices are particularly notable for doing this (in my opinion Alito on the right and Sotomayor on the left).

But even in 5-4 cases the justices don't always split the way you'd think. The Bostock County decision that made gays and transgender people a federally protected class against job discrimination was written by a conservative justice. That same justice, Gorsuch, as known as an advocate of Native American treaty rights. The late Justice Scalia was an advocate of defendants' rights under the Fourth Amendment. The judges aren't predictable voters in the way senators are.

This move will never cease to annoy the fuck out of me. Unless the election is somehow invalidated or recalled by the number of blank votes, it is completely counter-productive.

I found that negatives were often disappointing for some reason. Scanning good prints may work better for you.

Did 2,500 with a negative scanner. It took ages, mostly my wife. Then updated exif to roughly the right date. Loading them into Google photos they all fell into the dates given. I can scroll back to 1970! Don't worry I still have the originals.

No, it’s a citation of a message that does not exist. I wasn’t talking about a message sent by an AI, I was talking about an AI reproducing the alledged content of a purported message.

If you open a text file in an editor, and then delete the file on disk, then the file does not exist anymore, but you can still read its contents in your editor. Same if you open a web page in your browser, and the page is then deleted server-side. You can still read the loaded copy of the web page in your browser, although the web page doesn’t exist anymore. The “message” in TFA’s notification is exactly like that.
I kind of agree with your assessment, it would even speak to the popularity of document DBs coming up around the same time. However, I would argue that the decline in deep RDBMS integrations is exactly because of their excessive complexity. Modern software development methods left them behind because their change velocity is awful. This is doubly apparent when you look at features like TFA is talking about, exactly because it's extremely complex to stand up, manage, and make changes to.

I personally left in the era of ORMs exactly because it let me build systems in high-productivity languages and frameworks, but also because the cost benefit of RDBMS integration just wasn't there. The DB is absolutely the highest-risk place to put logic in any stack, if something goes wrong _everything_ breaks and it's the most difficult place to fix things.

I don't know what the future looks like for DBs, but I think we'll continue to see them become even more transparent. Devs just want to persist entities, and integrating at the RDBMS level is a slog.

Technically you could do the same in all three: C, C++ and Rust.

With vaccines and other ways of dealing with Covid infections it does not seem reasonable to have to do this anymore. And I doubt it’s very effective anyway, people are notorious terrible at wearing masks.

There is zero mask wearing in my country now and it’s mandated until nearly everyone was vaccinated. Now it’s no longer used as a Covid prevention measure here.
This is really cool and I like how the author describes how it works step by step. It makes it interesting even if you're not going to build one yourself.

I'm guessing that the data you extract from the RFID chip is some ID number that you need access to a database to do anything with? And that database is closed and only available for vets and similar? Either way, checking for the existence of a chip can probably be valuable enough sometimes.

And it can be integrated with a smart cat door or other local projects where you want to identify your pet.

Aren't Lua metatables and JS prototypes almost the same mechanism?

I say almost, because I think metatables are more broad than JS prototypes - you can emulate JS prototypes behavior using Lua metatables[0], but I don't think the reverse can be done (maybe with some Proxy[1] hackery?).

I think it's permissable in cases where you'd normally pay before the service and it's a type of service that is a low-dollar amount and something you'd do frequently instead of a one-off. An example would be a sandwich shop you go to every week. The reasoning would be that since it's cheap and frequent, those receiving the tip have an incentive today to deliver good service because they'd like you to continue tipping in the future.
Well they are interested in it. But they are not part of that system and don't know much about it, and even if they were how can anybody change it? That's pretty much a universal experience in the modern world: feeling disenfranchised because everything is way too complicated and overwhelming the engage constructively with.

I would like to see the mindset around here's shift from 'hacking' solutions to what problems can be hacked, to actually trying to 'solve' problems by doing the long work to figure out how to do it. It's much harder, but that's why it would be good for lots of people to be working on them.

Enacting large change involves things like journalism, activism, starting social movements, starting political clubs and parties...things that we think of anachronistic now. Certainly they're not normal. But... Probably they need to come back.
I'm not sure if you're referring to peat bogs, which is a more apt term for the title. I do however agree, northeastern marshlands are an interesting place of biodiversity - I'd like to visit the Everglades some day.
I'm not saying the content of the article is wrong, but what apps are people/companies writing articles like this actually building? I'm seriously unable to imagine any useful app. I only use GPT via API (as better Google for documentations, and its output is never usable without heavy editing). This week I tried to use "AI" in Notion: I needed to generate 84 check boxes for each day starting with specific date. I got 10 check boxes and line "here should go rest..." (or some variation of such lazy output). Completely useless.
That's not what the Supreme Court said she did.

This is a preliminary-stage ruling. The Supreme Court said that the case can't be dismissed because if all the facts are as the NRA alleges, which they are required to assume at this stage, that would be what she did.

The case isn't over. It now goes back to the lower courts to determine if that is, in fact, what she did.
Usually you’re using a lot of Optional and Streams, so the collection method returns null inside a .map() and you don’t need to think about it.
To be clear, it is handled by the checkstyle rules at compile time, so you won’t accidentally forget.
Yup, I very much favor SPOT. SPOT often means you must not repeat yourself, but abstraction isn't always the answer.

Look at my comment upthread where I attack this differently. We have a truth: Date is in the future. That should have a single point of truth--a function that checks if the date is in the future. Perhaps one with a boolean return (if you're in a position to handle it) and a wrapper that throws if the check fails (if you're not.) Pull out that truth even if you have separate code paths for the two things.
I like vehicles and motorcycles and, barring some transformative life experience, could not imagine going more than an "extended vacation in NYC" without a car in the United States.

But I also love good public transit, and think it's a huge competitive advantage for 2nd tier cities in the US. As remote work becomes a norm for the middle class, transit will be one of the main ways cities can lure people.

I agree that public safety is critical and that cities must take transit safety and cleanliness seriously. (And for that matter, take public safety in general more seriously - my city of San Antonio doesn't seem to take action on crime unless police are able to get there while it's in progress or if it's high-profile.)
"When you find a scorpion at your doorstep"

Oh, now I see what meant by "with russian-compatible thought processes". Dehumanizing other people by likening them to insects and attributing incompatible 'thought processes' sounds familiar. The last time the USSR lost 26 million people because of European invasion.
I've never trusted that food safe epoxy actually is. I'm afraid that lobbyists have interfered, or its a situation where "there's no evidence that it's dangerous but there's not really evidence that it's safe", or the studies are funded by manufacturers, or there's something like manufactures pulled with BPA where they just switch to something functionally equivalent to a potentially dangerous chemical.

Is there any reason to believe that these epoxies won't just be like PFAS where in a few years the EPA/FDA will decide that they were actually risky?
