I mean, yes, it was mandated, but I am decently confident a usable system would have emerged one way or the other. In Germany we had a standardized API for online banking (HBCI) just because banks agreed it would be reasonable to do that.
A major hurdle is the devices are typically DRM locked to manufacturers and a Rx is required before any programming can happen.

How Postgres Chooses Which Index to Use for a Query (2022)
Ideally rigorous testing should happen before something becomes common, but it isn’t the only option. Nothing stops you from a temporary ban say 20 years to allow for testing. Doing this for every chemical at the same time is impossible, but we can also cycle through existing chemicals.

Hypothetically, if phthalates exposure was responsible for 5% of cancer deaths that’s 30,000 dead Americans per year and we might not notice without a ban. It’s unlikely for this specific chemical to be that bad, but we don’t know.

I guess I wasn't thinking of my primary line of defense: webapps! Naturally sandboxed and least privilege'd. And many of them are locally selfhosted in containers too.

Native apps for me tend to fall into a few narrow categories:

* Professional software engineering tools

* Videogames (on a Steam Deck these days)

* CAD for 3D printing (FreeCAD)

* A/V editing with Audacity, Gimp, etc
People care about the effects. For example, you can install adblockers on every version of Firefox except for the one on iOS.

It's like anything - The devil is in the implementation details.

I've found the most leverage with agent-based LLM solutions comes from including feedback from prior iterations.

For example, if you are trying to write a text-to-SQL bot you should actually attempt to parse any generated query using the desired provider and then pass any errors back into the prompt. You can also incorporate snippets of result sets (if successful parse) as another form of feedback. In my experience, this can make an incredible difference in performance. It's a LOT cheaper to just run the generated query against an actual SQL database (and try again as needed) than to get the whole thing right in one shot with fine tuning & RAG.

I do think the right approach is to empathize with the agent. How far could you get with that complex 12-table query if you did not have a way to run your SQL against the actual database and see how it performs? You can extend this thinking to any domain. You can write your own "guard rails provider" that is deterministic and easy to inspect (i.e. you can set breakpoints and view locals). This can even recursively utilize the LLM in a more targeted way.
If you get the paid version then customization is an option, just FYI. Not sure when this was introduced but it’s been working well for me.
So rather than pay people, the reverse? Is this just to get around interns not legally allowed to do money generating work?
Exactly. And, I'm assuming, it will reject any prompts or words in poor taste.
The same features of pio can be implemented via FPGA, but it's a lot more complicated to do so, and probably you won't find FPGAs as cheap as on the pi
No, FPGAs work substantially different.

You can think of an FPGA as a bunch of "programmable transistors". You've got a whole bunch of basic logic building blocks, and you program the wires between them to build a logic circuit. This means it is great for building relatively simple but high-speed logic (grab sample from sensor, do some additions and multiplications, store result in external DRAM chip, repeat at 5GHz). However, they are really inflexible: getting them to do different operations depending on some condition is extremely costly.

The PIO, on the other hand, is essentially a really basic CPU core. It reads and executes a stream of instructions, and it can do (very simple) math and conditional logic. This means it is great for building some kind of state machine, which dynamically adjusts it behaviour based on some kind of external condition. The unique selling point of the PIO is that the instruction set is completely designed around super-fast IO, so reading or writing two dozen pins can be done in one or even zero(!) instructions. And because every instruction executes in exactly one cycle, you've got really good control over the exact timing. This makes it ideal for implementing hardware-level protocols in software.
None of these really fit the pattern. Apple invented FireWire, called it FireWire, and other companies chose to call it different things in their implementations (partly because Apple originally charged for licensing the name, IIRC). iSight is an Apple product. FaceTime is an Apple product. Retina is branding for high-resolution displays beyond a certain visual density.
Ride1Up's e-bike factory: The secret behind good quality low-cost e-bikes
I have used Common Lisp for many years at about the same time as you, as well as some other Lisps. And I also had to go away, because in the real world I was not always the one who chose the language.

About the "top end of the power spectrum", after discovering the array languages (of which for me APL is the one that clicks), I have come to believe that they are at the top end, higher than the lisps. I was disappointed when I found out that those languages existed before I was born, that I studied CS and thought I knew about all the programming paradigms, but I had still missed those.

The AEC standards aren't enforced by anything and are mostly just promises that chip manufacturers make (the AEC itself is a private entity). Specifically, that any given chip will still be available in 15 years and that it'll operate fine within certain temperature ranges.

If some part claims to be AEC compliant it's basically just the manufacturer saying so. There's no independent body or even standardized tests to prove a part adheres to any given AEC document. Their own docs state as much:

AEC Certification

Note that there are no "certifications" for AEC-Q100 qualification and there
is no certification board run by AEC to qualify parts. Each supplier
performs their qualification to AEC standards, considers customer
requirements and submits the data to the user to verify compliance to Q100

In other words, it would be up to any given car manufacturer to verify the claims of any chip vendor using their own testing methods. Since they're going to have to do that anyway, slapping AEC-(whatever) on a product doesn't mean much.

If you test your part in similar conditions and make some availability promises you too can slap an AEC-Q100 label on to your chip!

edit: He was pulled on stage impromptu at a GDC decades ago to introduce the concept which was how it grew legs.
Kind of cheating trick for the QFN substrate pad is to put a grid of somewhat higher diameter vias in there and solder the pad from the other side of the board through these vias. Another approach is to just ignore the substrate pad altogether (in many devices it should not be connected to anything anyway and has no real thermal management purpose).

Just to cover all the bases, have your child do a sleep study. Especially if they're still on your insurance and it covers such things, as it can be somewhat expensive otherwise (in the US.)

Sleep disorders really compound other problems, and they'll be pretty thankful later in life to have caught any disorders early before they've done a lot of damage.
Sure but that's really just a hack. By defining the measurement device to be somehow outside of the entire thing you can analyse another measurement device as if it's not a measurement device, but still it leaves an element of the theory that is physically significant (the new, broader measurement device) that isn't studied by the measurement. This is usually okay, sure, but it means that ultimately my point still stands: Copenhagen can be used to analyse a specific measurement device + system, but whatever measurement device is chosen as the Copenhagen measurement device cannot be analysed by the Copenhagen interpretation in that given example. This is an inescapable problem of the Copenhagen interpretation, and MWI does not have this problem.

A woman of incredible courage - to be able to rebuild her career after being kicked out of IBM despite her achievements, is inspirational.

If you ask me a question before giving me the material being queried, I do better, too! It’s the difference between an open-book and closed-book test.

The Transformer read-then-query model is, IMO, a bit odd. It preprocesses the input and then people want it to be able to answer any question about the input and would also like the query to run in time independent of the input length, and people are sad that the best models take time linear in the input length. No kidding: that’s the algorithmic complexity of even a straightforward, non-ML approach!
Barrel threaded machines like GPUs have easier time hiding the latency of bank conflict resolution when gathering/scattering against local memory/cache than a machine running a single instruction thread.

Just so you know how the FDA works, they evaluate what Industry tells them to create their “Guidance”, subject to an open comment type of process. They’re not superheroes of science working in a perpetual adversarial stance against industry. They inspect companies to ensure regulated companies comply or are in the process of complying with the official Guidance.

Should industry players break rank and come up with science contradictory to the status quo, which challenges the Guidance. They’ll either start to notice and incorporate learnings into future Guidance revisions, or write up a Deficiency order against the company. The company can then defend itself by engaging further studies and/or litigation. AKA what the big players say is what goes.

The very best thing about keepass is that defines a standard and publishes a reference implementation that anyone can build a compatible client for.

Suggestion on Website Design
Hi,
I am creating a website for aggregating electronics ads from different marketplaces like Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, etc. For this purpose, I have created the UI for the landing and marketplace pages, which work with desktop as well as mobile.

I have been providing data to business users for the last 24 years. It doesn't matter if we give them a query tool, MS Access, Power BI or a data cube in Excel, there are only a small number of users who will actually use the tools. My guess is these are the same users who would have done analysis with data scraped from terminals and printed reports 40 years ago. For what it is worth, execs do like a dashboard with key metrics and the new BI tools make it a lot easier to write and maintain KPI dashboards.
One really important one for even non-dev users is that it isn't affected by DRM protections.

Windows' screenshot tool nowadays blacks out any DRM content which makes screenshotting frames from a show, etc a royal pain in the ass, This is presumably because the tool can now also do video recording but either way it's very frustrating.

The firefox tool doesn't have that issue.

>Not only does a module reduce implementation complexity dramatically, standardization skips every engineer potentially making their own dumb component placement mistakes.

And we've never found a way around that for the decades we've been putting Atmel, STM, TI, Ambiq, Nordic, etc chips in our designs... There's an intern 2 yards away from me who will be wrestling with getting the right components in place around an STM, for his very first pcb design. This is not a hard problem for anyone who has been doing this for any period of time.

And anyway, those dozen or so components are the oscillator/crystal circuit, the reset holdup, and the 3.3v supply. And then like a bazillion decoupling caps. Certainly, antenna tuning can be hard, but if you can use chip antennas, its not that hard.

All of those are so bog standard that when I looked at e.g. the adafruit RP2040 Feather's schematic, I was sort of surprised at how much is just lifted wholesale from all of their other feathers. Like, the only difference between the RP2040 feather and the nRF52840 feather is the micro itself, the timing circuit (all 5 components of it for the RP2040), and the antenna circuit for the Nordic board.

As to the convenience of modules, I submit that they are very handy for sale to the hobbyist market, but if you want to actually sell your products, you still have to go through the process of RF certification (although at a lower cost. Only you can decide if the higher upfront cost of using a module vs. spinning your own is offset by the lower certification cost), so the benefit is a lot more mixed. Even so, you're only saving the antenna tuning step, which is usually done as a BOM variation, not a major trace adjustment.

As to the dozens of STM and PIC chips, TI has the same situation. Customers want to pay for only what they need and those manufacturers have the manufacturing capacity to support that desire. Its not daunting if the difference matters. This is very much akin to complaining that Home Depot sells too many different kinds of lumber.

As for capacitive touch ICs, sure Adafruit only carries one. But mouser carries 199 that are not end of life. To keep that functionality going, adafruit need only pick up one of them. The cheapest one is even in a TSOT package, so the DFM will be pretty easy. Hell, if I'm not too tired from my job designing and programming these things, I might go home and spin one up tonight. Ought to only take me an hour or so. And the I2C driver another couple hours.

That's my poor word choice as I also mention Keychain access in the same sentence.

I meant this in the sense of addressing people that stated that putting a password manager in Safari is vendor lock in, and accessing passwords via other methods such as the password pane in Settings as a bridge too far, along with describing that panel as "hidden" and using "dark patterns".

On the balance of information it seems clear that moving passwords to a separate app that is easy to access, navigate and share passwords (including across platforms) is the opposite of lock-in.
