What difference does it make? There was a great line in a recent New Yorker article about free will / determinism, and compatibilism.

>>All these modes of explanation tell us, in various ways, that people are causal systems, enmeshed in larger ones. But, from a first-person perspective, we’re seldom inclined to wait around to see what the system does when we’re faced with a decision. Instead, we do what even Sapolsky finds himself compelled to do—we get on with things and open the kitchen cupboard to decide (or, anyway, “decide”) what kind of tea we’re going to have.

They won't do this without consensus in TC39. They shouldn't either; that'd be worse than this niggle.
The impact on Jupiter bit seems strange to me. Unless it's something that just pops up out of nowhere, it seems like we'd have been tracking the impactor for some time to be able to have plenty of lead time for Hubble to use its walker to slowly get into position.

Let me explain then: Linux has plenty of options for desktop environment. As a long time Windows user, I don’t care much about their features, I need a job to be done. I will not try to adapt (even if it is easy) or figure out why Gnome is better, I will choose something familiar and good enough. Gnome lost me before I even tried to use it. I don’t have such choice on Mac, so I‘m forced to use MacOS UI and adapt, and that’s not trivial thing for someone who knows their primary OS well. Difference in UI paradigms is visible and does hurt the performance.

Yep. The unfolding OpenAI heel turn is clear to anyone watching, as is Apple's declining ability meet the expectations set by its own marketing. If you move your finger along those trend lines and find where they intersect, you'll get a glimpse of the future of this product. I guess the counterargument is "but it'll be different this time"?

The thing about your comment is that it seems that you believe containers are something you use for added security, and that is very much not the case.

But I don't disagree about rootless containers being more secure than rooted ones, just as much as any process not running as root has less privileges then one running as root.
To be fair, the only place the words ‘open’ and ‘source‘ appear in the readme are once in a sub-heading, where it’s phrased ‘open-source’. It’s clearly labelled ELv2.

I've been using Hydrus [1] for the longest time now. It covers all of my tagging needs. Using the API, I can tag images using AI models [2], and have a client [3] to search through files on my phone. Native features also include automatic imports, backups, deduping, and much more.

The maintainer is working tirelessly and pushes new updates every week. It's one of the most underrated pieces of software ever, in my opinion.

This is incredibly impressive. I've always hoped that a powerful ARM-based BSD laptop would be a reality one day, but never thought it would happen.

Having a standard platform with support/documentation from the vendor could mean that Snapdragon Elite X could be a solid choice that is easy to support from an OS maintainer point of view.
You are thinking of the sensor in smartphones, in this case it is a spinning disc that uses gyroscopic torque to rotate the spacecraft.

I do think it's a gotcha to run a script with another runtime than the one I launched from the terminal, though. If I launch a script directly with a runtime, I expect it to disregard any shebangs.
seems to me that taking farmers away from their land will make people starve.

similar to how in the american south in the 20th century, sharecroppers were forced to work on commodity farms and didn't grow food. instead, they imported processed corn from the midwest that gave them pellagra. thanks in part to market forces of the midwest corn trade.
There's no face to save here and I don't particularly care. I made myself clear, the rest is on you. It's not as if I asked for clarification.
It was pretty big in some circles that needed smaller distros, maybe there was overlap for you that others didn't have?

I encountered it when netbooks were super popular and I wanted an OS that actually ran decently with some storage to spare.
Dumb question ...

If an OS already supported ARM64, which Elite X is, why would any more work need to be done to support it?

Whether they should or not and whether that would be bad or not depends on how close of a relationship you believe should/does exist between TypeScript and JavaScript l, specifically in the TS to JS direction.

If I said language foo that isn’t TS but transpiled to JS all the same was considering that syntax, people might have a different opinion.

I may be missing it, but this article mainly talks about the issues of pyrolysis and advanced plastics recycling. But it provides data supporting traditional recycling, citing a 55-85% success rate. Are there any other issues with traditional recycling, or do we just need to make sure that the plastic being recycled is using the better/older method?

Let's not forget that NRO donated multiple Hubble level satellites. NASA had no budget to utilize them, so they were not used. Of course there were other logistics involved that made the "gifts" not so practical. However, the thing that gets me is that if the NRO was willing to donate these satellites tells me that they have better than Hubble quality imaging looking inwards and absolutely have multiple of them.

The serenity of this game, occasionally punctured by jump scares from the deep - yeah, it will do that to you. You better believe I had a goddamn submarine loaded for bear (whatever that means in an almost completely non-violent game) before approaching the final levels.
Not really...crypto is the biggest one that people cite, but the crypto ecosystem seems to be humming along. It hasn't taken over the world, but it also hasn't really fizzled imo. I haven't really paid attention to whether VCs are still investing there.

I guess maybe VR is another one? But that's another example of a slowly growing ecosystem.

I think mostly the people who think some piece of hot tech is going to take over the world aren't usually wrong, they're just early.

If corporations can just increase prices with whatever percent they need to offset some tax, why don't they just increase prices with 5% or 500% already, and pocket the profit, despite there being no tax that requires the increase? Seems like an obvious thing to do, and the incentive is totally there (free profit).

The people receiving $750 are neither all workers nor consumers of the businesses being taxed.

Sure as an aggregate I bet at least one Oregonian is a consumer/worker of any business with >$25M of income but if you don't spend at least 25k ($750 * (1/0.03)) at businesses making over >$25M then you're coming out ahead if prices go up by 3% at _just_ those specific businesses.

(As a though experiment) The problem would be how to combine shareholder capitalism with post hoc lowering of prices. Why should the shareholders Novo accept less returns on their bet, in order to give Americans a better price than 'the US' with all it's market power (or lack thereof considering their institutional arrangements) can bargain for? My opinion: The US could obviously change their institutional arrangements and get lower prices for patients (plus the shortages that go along with low prices), but this change would face stiff opposition in Congress from those gaining from the current status quo. You get what you pay for. Massive prices, and all the preferential treatment of suppliers and those involved in the supply chains that money can buy.
Related: One of the subniche in the Tetris communities is Tetris art / pattern creation, i.e. drawing predefined patterns while playing the game (almost) normally.

One of most practiced pattern is the chevron, where you draw a > shape with holes, but otherwise fill the whose board. This stemmed from the Japanese arcade version of Tetris by Sega (or Segatet for those in the known). This version was hugely popular in the arcade (it stayed for an incredibly 10 years in the top100 earner in some arcade magazine), and some player were destroying the game so much that they invented this challenge. This was recognized in Segatet successor Tetris the Grand Master (TGM3), and formally named "Secret Grade". One example here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgzcAkjp0J8 , and another there with TGM3 signature speed https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32wzKc0cHQU .

But in general, Shuey is the master of arbitrary making pattern. Look at him drawing a Luigi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_tipJDjeKuY .

Note that since then, an algorithm for arbitrary pattern generation has been devised by Michael Birken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJkHwulsac4

(sort of related: the playing forever algorithm may be interpreted as a pattern creation https://tetris.wiki/Playing_forever )

What's even worse would be enforcing the wrong solution that will cause more damage. The French have a saying, fuite en avant (lit. escape forwards) when someone insists on doing something knowing full well that it will not work but they do it anyways because it's better than inaction.

Considering the rise of the far right in the last EU elections, anyone who's seriously considering weakening public encryption must be out of their minds.
ARM isn’t like x86 and generally doesn’t self-describe its hardware via some specification or interface.

Admittedly it’s not a crazy amount of work at a baseline, but device-specific information needs to be added for the kernel to understand address maps, available peripherals, linker shenanigans, and more. This is (partiallly) what device tree overlay blobs are for on Linux (and why you can’t just run Windows/AARCH64 on any hardware of your choosing).
For real. I was talking to an academic friend who claims that she doesn’t do politics then I had to remind her about the 5 steps she uses when she wants to get someone fired (starts with creating negative narratives then gets worse from there)

Thank you! You are correct that relying solely on bank integrations carries some risk. We are committed to developing our own Engine (https://midday.ai/updates/engine) to be more flexible. This approach will also potentially allow us to add card functionality later on, enabling us to manage the entire process ourselves
Which rules it out almost entirely for HIPAA covered entities. Quick example: right to be forgotten vs record retention laws. A European who receives healthcare in the US can’t demand that the provider delete their medical record afterward because HIPAA says they must retain it.
Hmm...I didn't understand the comment to be about specific products, so I'd take Glass and Betamax off the list.

I really don't think crypto or VR or AR are going to fizzle, I think they're just early in their overall lifecycle. I absolutely think that in ten or twenty years those categories will be much larger than today.
The issue with landfill is the same as burning plastics. Heavy metal and elements that bioaccumulate in animals and plants being dispersed in a small-ish zone. If you can remove bromine and all that shit before putting plastics in landfills, that would be great.
> The thing is — if you are running this setup on your own linux virtual machine — it requires endless system maintenance. Otherwise all the PHP stuff becomes vulnerable to random hacks. And the base OS needs endless security updates.

Just use Debian with unattended-upgrades. Done. Only rarely do you have to do anything manually.

Setting up daily backups with verification is also a one-time thing.
I'm pretty sure the point of recycling to make people feel like they are doing something about plastic pollution, and this feeling distracts people from the fact that nothing you do with plastic actually makes a difference.

> Norway has to be among the worst.

That strange to hear. Why do you have this feeling? After visiting Porto and Italy around and below Napoli, I cannot imagine that there are any place in Nordic countries which has even just similar tolerance to not maintain something. But I don’t know too much about Norway specifically.

> I hope NASA will wait for a supply mission to bring a Crew Dragon and test Starliner further.

IMO, both Boeing and NASA are under quite a lot of pressure to not require further tests from Boeing because there are just enough Atlas Vs (the rocket that Starliner launches on) for Boeing to complete it's contractual obligations.

Any further tests would deplete that stock.

While I do think a certain amount of grace is due to a vehicle like Starliner - all space vehicles are relatively bespoke and have a consistent level of minor problems - its track record is not great. All 3 demonstration flights have had serious issues with the service module. And because Boeing can't examine the actual hardware once the capsule lands, they have a limited ability to determine the true root cause.

Case in point - NASA and Boeing throught they understood the helium leak before launching... and after 4 more leaks popped up realized that they actually didn't.
And, notably, in any kind of government, a group with temporary political power will naturally want to optimize for the preservation of that power. A dampening function that resists rapid change, and specifically resists things like mass surveillance that can distort democratic processes, is a feature, not a bug.

MPL and EUPL don't make you money but they are in the spirit of free software while not being viral and forcing everybody to buy into the socialistic ideals of free software.

A company can keep closed source their own extension to your project, but any modification to the project itself gets shared with the community, no exception. In ways it's more libre than GPLv2, without forcing big money to bend to your idealistic will (because they won't, and will just avoid using your software).

Of course you can write your license, but either you do it seriously and pay $x,000 a lawyer to do it for you, or you write legal nonsense. In both cases the result is any company will just skip using your software because they have better things to do than review your custom license. There is a real people choose pre-made licenses for open source.
It's crazy how well supported most hardware is on BSD compared to other *Nix OS's. The fact NetBSD can boot on hardware that is 25+ years old, running on an architecture that no longer exists, is insane to me. The BSD communities are a different breed entirely.
I don't think professional athletes are that dismissive of the collective wisdom of real-world experts, and are in fact much more likely to pay for the "human premium" and not a soulless chatbot, no matter how advanced its information.

I think it comes down to your threat model.

For the vast majority of people (ie, 99%) there's no difference between the major browsers and the overall security they provide.

For that 1% the difference may be noticeable but pale in comparison to other things like solid opsec, etc. For instance, it doesn't matter what browser you use if you are using SMS 2FA and get hit with a sim-swap because you're bragging on Twitter about how your Coinbase account is sitting at $2MM.

On the other hand, if you're international arms dealer your browser choice probably matters a lot more. Though, the three letter agencies already have your poster on their wall and you were pwned a year prior anyway. Even worse, if you're outside the US the drones have already been deployed.

The US isn't beyond blowing up hackers, look at Junaid Hussain[1].
