Really good idea. No reason not to commoditise this and have companies just compete on price.
Oh it was definitely a thing (I have a screenshot somewhere) and the JS was there on all sites and all devices regardless of https.

Sure, I could have worked around it and continued to collect/share digital copies of albums, especially rare ones you could only find in dusty bins of disappearing record shops. (This was my favorite hobby back in the day) but instead I just gave up... what's the point in participating when the internet, a public service I _pay_ for, which should probably be owned and maintained in the commons, is then used for double-tithing by the companies that run these services? Social media, ISPs, they're enshittifying themselves by having naturally adopted the model of cable television networks, e.g., pay for this premium service and we will still feed you ads or force such-and-such recommendation down your throat. What a rug pull.
WSL is not at all the same thing as Linux on hardware.
They do these things slowly and hoping no one notices. More and more intrusive, the dimmer the frog of losing your privacy and slowly add ads. It might take 10 years but you better believe AI will train on your data for their benefit and profit
This is good news. But I think both Israel and the US should pass a law that the child of any senior member of government, who is also old enough to serve (18-35) and has no dependents should be automatically deployed to combat. No exceptions except for medical conditions that significantly impact ability to fight. Let’s see how many pointless wars get started then.
Yes, I absolutely recommend it. I use it every day.

Hey folks,

Op here. Trying to build a distributed AI platform - lots of work, fairly early phase but I think it's already useful. Hope you'll like it.

Thanks!
Thanks for the links, awesome!

As far as I can tell, this ai was given a list of existing formulations for rare-earth free magnets, along with some statistics about them, the ai picked the "best", by some conditions the researchers picked and then the researchers tested that formulation to make sure it worked

This is what I did. No regrets, the only one is my usual one for Linux. I want a "nearly bleeding edge" distro. AppImages and Flatpacks are nearly what I want, and do use them, but for development I want to be able to install development tier packages with the confidence that it wont break. I guess I want Debian, bleeding edge but assurances on how reasonably stable it should be. VanillaOS 2 looks promising to me.

I am NEVER going back to Windows unless I get a modern version:

* Targeted for professionals / gamers (why call it pro if its just Home without dumb restrictions?)
* Offline-first accounts only
* Zero ads for Microsoft products (I'll literally pay $50 a year to stop them, and stop the update nagware).
* Stop pestering me to update
* And this is more important, decouple your OS so you can update while I use it, requiring a restart only under kernel tier changes.
You seriously haven't seen a program that provides split panes? Never used an IDE that allows you to see multiple files at the same time in the same window, in a grid of panes, side by side?
> I won't install a new shell to generate a file list on my CI server. I won't install a new shell on remote machines. Ever.

Uh... that's on you? Why do you intentionally hinder yourself?

> These structured shells also require commands to be aware of them, either via some plugin that structures their raw I/O output or some convention. They solve _some_ command output structuring but not _all_ the general problem.

Okay. It doesn't solve literally every single problem, that is true. It's still miles ahead. And when interfacing with non-pwsh commands, you just fall back to text parsing/output.
Wouldn’t they get sued to bits? Technically torrents have solved it
I had the opposite experience actually. Windows didn't include network drivers for my custom PC mobo+chipset, while linux had them included. Actually had to download the windows drivers on linux then boot into windows and install them...

Wouldn’t it dissolve a lot of things, including space suit seals? If it wasn’t for the extreme cold embrittlement anyway.
Again, the fundamental argument is that the bad actors still had time, chance and opportunity to own and be accountable for the misdeeds but chose to hide them instead. Any ability to influence the timing of the release is still a direct consequence of their underlying malfeasance.
Why should having dependents be get away free? Shouldn't it double the service time per dependent. After all there is more skin in the game. Single people should be last to be forced to fight wars...
The way the compilers abuse undefined behavior to "optimize" away sanity checks we explicitly put in is just downright insane to me

The latest driver makes Wayland usable on NVidia, as long as you use an up to date shell and the latest xwayland version, I've been using it since it came out and it's been great, games are much more smooth and the constant microstutter I'd been having with X is gone.

Check out if these updates are all available on Pop, if they are give them a try!
It makes sense for a browser to support this.
Sure, it's not convenient for normies but you can just download the apk from somewhere and then install it, just like you can do with an .exe or installer on windows.

> Even though you can now supposedly run powershell in linux, I don't know anyone who does. Does anybody?

I do. I replaced all of the automation scripts on my rpi with pwsh scripts, and I'm not regretting it. Not having to deal with decades of cruft in argument parsing and string handling, learning little DSLs for every command, etc. is so worth it.
Imagine an IDE that allows you to see multiple files in an X by Y grid - replace "files" with web pages. Is expecting that feature in a browser that far fetched? Or are we resigned to creating multiple windows + tiling WM as the one-true-solution for this usecase?
I wasn't assuming infedlity, I could have been more clear there. I really was just curious on timing how none of his children could have met him before he was imprisoned.
It's still quite true at times for stuff integrated into the motherboard, sadly. You really should do due diligence on your hardware before you buy it if you intend to use Linux. You can still buy laptops that will not work well with Linux, and as of about a year and a half ago at least there were still new motherboards being released with components that have spotty Linux support.
You write this as if there is one type of homeless and all we need to do is give homes. It is not this easy, sorry but you're wrong. It has been tried before and doesn't work long term in local areas. The situation is much more complex than a 3 paragraph solution.

> Unlike some other ideologies they will happily answer any questions about it, it's just that the answers are extremely bad, whether it's "how would you make insulin" (you won't) or "how does criminal justice work" (sometimes meetings, sometimes lynch mobs).

That's precisely what I meant by pop culture/mass media. At this stage, this is more of a meme regarding anarchy than reality and this couldn't be farther from truth. (and it's quite an old one, think: French enlightenment era philosophers using pre-partition Poland as an example of anarchy).
It was a great experiment. It got the predetermined outcome that the investigators wanted, and it got headlines and major news media, and the rebuttals won't have nearly as wide audience.

No, you can set up a Mac with a local account without any weird hacks during setup.
The whole ultra-orthodox situation is weird to me - not only did they get out of compulsory military service, they also receive massive welfare benefits that apparently aren't generally available (few of them work - they spend all their time studying). But, I don't know anything beyond what I'm reading in US-based newspapers, so maybe there's more to it.

As for the situation in the US - I definitely hate that hawkish politicians rarely have any skin in the game. I might have a warped view living in DC, but the senior officer corp is often made up of generational military. And the enlisted soldiers are very often from disadvantaged areas. Having a volunteer military is a good thing, but it feels like (no data to back this up) we're well along the path of creating a military "caste" or two. If anybody has data about the family histories of current enlisted soldiers and officers, I'd be interested to see if my thought bares out.

Compared to what? I wouldn't defend LLMs as "worth their electricity" quite yet, and they are definitely less efficient than a lot of other software, but I'd still like to see how this compares to gaming consoles, or email servers, the advertising industry hosting costs, cryptocurrency, and so on. Just doesn't seem worth pointing out the carbon footprint of AI just yet.
> Linux as a desktop OS is hardware support

Things have changed a lot here. I now regularly buy windows laptops, toss windows and they just work. When there is a hardware problem, it usually takes a few minutes to resolve.

The hard part is realizing that you have to do the EFEI setup and not just try to boot in insecure mode.
I went with Pop Os, had a little stability and audio issues, and went with Arch. Everything works really well now. YMMV. I took the opposite extreme; the only things running are the things that I enabled. It took a little more work, and it was worth the afternoon it took.
> Just try to turn off WiFi on your Android phone and see how much longer your battery lasts... All of that power goes to spying on you.

Having WiFi turned on will drain your battery faster by virtue of connecting to WiFi. Even worse, if it's on but not connected, it will periodically look for networks to connect to. The same is true for cellular service.
I think that qualifies. 12 years of no freedom. Happy he finally gets to move on with his life. A real brave journalist who actually spoke truth to power.
They split their focus too much chasing all the latest buzz. Then their funds get wasted and they close stuff down having created no additional value.
I don't think this demonstrates untrustworthiness.
This would, in the long run, fill the government with true hawks that hold genuine warlike values and don't mind their kids dying for the greater glory of the nation, or childless people.

Isn't that a bit of a perverse incentive, or at least result you don't want to see?

I know that the status quo in science journalism is to desperately find ways to excite people about research but this headline boils down to “scientists use computer to help with research” and the actual story is “company discovers new magnet”.
Probably not. Society is more complex than that, especially when you mix perverse actions with seemingly honest intentions. If you reveal 10 military secrets that put lives at risk but then have 1 piece of whistleblower evidence to protect yourself that's a shortcut to getting all your secrets revealed. There is no society in which revealing state secrets would be tolerated without being quickly destroyed by their enemies. And it's certainly showing one dosent care about the lives recklessly put at risk either, so is this really about helping people or is it just a blaze of ego?

Personally I'm more or less ambivalent whether he walks free or not today, what matters is deterrence is established.
That makes sense and shouldn't have been that difficult anyway. For the barbie glitter scene there's obviously more chroma 'texture' to apply variable bitrates. Flat colored scenes could continue using lower bitrates. Where more complex models could be useful is avoiding entropy coding of useless details etc (e.g. if those details were artifacts of processing in the first place).
The recovery commandline solution did not work for me. What did work was using no@thanks.com with a random password, which is a locked account, which then allowed me to create a local account.

No. Did you read the GP? When you buy a romance novel, you don't think a real life person is going to come out of it and romance you. It's a transparent fiction.
You can use Fdroid and sideload apps, but Google makes it impossible to run most apps without Google Play Services running in the background.
Anecdotally, I've worked in non FAANG orgs for like 15 ish years (just web dev though). Never once been asked an algorithm question.

A few years into one job, my coworker (the one who interviewed and hired me) asked me over lunch "remember fizz buzz?", and I was like "No, what's that?" He explained the problem and I wrote a simple script with modulus and nested ifs that seemed to work. I asked him what the point of it was and he didn't know either. Then we went back to work and never talked about fancy algorithms again...

But the flip side of this anecdote is that I'm still just a web dev. I would never call myself an engineer, software or otherwise. I also don't get paid much (by tech standards), even though my salary is high by my own standards ($25 to $50 an hour, hacking together PHP and now JS scripts). Terrible for an ivy league comp sci grad, not too bad for a self taught high school dropout.

What is your location? Personally, I've never been asked about this stuff in an interview. I think I've been asked about big 0 notation a few times and some patterns but none of this pure leetcode stuff. This is one good thing about AI is it might end this regurgitation of patterns which can be looked up if required.

Assuming you can cobble stuff together and are organised, I would suggest reading stuff like Designing Data Intensive applications. What sort of roles are you going for, assume you are in web or backend dev, not something more low level?

I’ve probably listened to this band more than any other. I was born and raised in Los Angeles and grew up on it along with similar bands. I actually ran into Fat Mike totally randomly out in public this past year. I introduced myself, he’s a nice guy and exactly what you’d expect.
In Firefox, when I start to move my mouse right, vertical scroll bar appears. Same is true for horizontal one when I move my mouse down. It happens even before I get closer to any of the scroll bars. So, a wheel/trackpad is not required per se.

Moreover, almost all mice I used except the most basic ones have horizontal scrolling capability.
I would open another TTY to run the nvidia-bug-report.sh when you experience the GPU intensive issues. I recently had a very minute hard to spot problem on why I couldn't get my GPU working and the Generix on the Nvidia Forums help me (and so many others) solve their issues almost immediately. Could be worth a shot.
People don't use Slack in this way though. I've worked at several organizations where the freshest documentation we had was in Slack. The truest FAQ is when someone actually asks a dev a question in a Slack channel, and not the questions they anticipated being asked when writing documentation. Capturing this in a meaningful way would be highly valuable, and maybe all that takes is feeding it to a RAG based LLM
> Developed by IBM

Not surprising there to be honest. Probably tested the tech in a room with no background noise, a couple of easy use cases, and an “ideal” customer that speaks clearly and knows what they want.

But also not surprised that AI has failed to replace human order takers. The order taker software by IBM reminds me of Siri, maybe they picked up Apple rejects.
Just to put this in context, the last time as you say a "full left" government ruled, over the span of six years we:

- Built the NHS

- Decolonised India, Pakistan, Burma, Sri Lanka, and Jordan

- Nationalised the coal industry, electricity utilities, railways and long-distance haulage

- Established a national childcare service

- Paved the way for the creation of National Parks and introduced public rights of way

There is a lot of progress that can be made with a genuine left-wing government with a majority, even in a time of economic upheaval. With Reform splitting the right-wing vote this is the best opportunity the left has had in my lifetime. But Starmer is in the lead, banning MPs from attending strike pickets and talking about how he's had to give up his pledges on the NHS in order to "grow the economy".

What is gross on it? To manufacture electronics you need to have working clothes, usually ESD complaint and hair covered again due to ESD (dry hair can generate lot of charge) but also if you are working with dumb and strong machines (CNCs, Lathes, KUKA robots) you are covering your hair to not get scalped.

The blog looked like something discussing an important topic for the owner and not primarily for entertainment.

People lost their bearing about if and when stupid visuals ruin or not their message, derail attention. And they stopped caring as well. They just want to make something funny looking, this is a primary motivation, coming up with stupid ideas and pushing it anywhere and everywhere. I belive this is a problematic attitude in the age of pretension. Which made me to loose my faith in humanity.
It’s hard to know what you consider “cheap” but you can buy a 1-3 year old iPad for relatively cheap (iPad 9 renewed on Amazon goes for about $240, WIFI-only). If you are just running a HA dashboard then an iPad is going to be rock solid.

I know that is going to sound counter to what you think you want but it will be plug and play and you can be sure it’s not going to have crapware loaded on it.
