Mr: Apple Intelligence Features Not Coming to EU at Launch Due to DMA
If I may interject for a moment, the software you are calling "jit" is actually pronounced Git…

It looks like you don't understand what Linux is at all. It's just a kernel that other distributions build on top of to create an OS. You have multiple "UIs" available in that space, like gnome, kde and others.
I have no idea how having choice and being able to customize your desktop experience is a bad thing but I guess some people won't be happy no matter what.
I didn't want to provide them access to the content of all my emails too, though, even though they claim not to read them
I originally had only my MX hosts listed in my SPF record, and configured to accept them exclusively. Microsoft unilaterally blocked the entire /23 my VPS resides within, and refused to exclude my configured IPs from their block.

The only way I’m currently able to deliver anything to domains hosted by Microsoft is to expand my SPF record to include my ISP’s mail hosts, and route delivery through them.

Microsoft, and the other SMTP cartel thugs, are undermining the protections these protocols were designed to provide.
Also, perhaps it's a consequence of limited supply. If the SF fleet is still just 250 cars that seems quite small to me for a city with a lot of demand for ride services.
Silicon Valley has a much looser definition of conflict of interest than most other industries.
Using PopOS for 4 years now, currently with an Nvidia 4070 Super(TI?) on my gaming rig ... no issues whatsoever
Thanks for all the info! It's not necessary to avoid acronyms or initialisms, just the first time it is used put what it is short for in parenthesis. For example, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), then you can use the FBI in the rest of the text.
What you described sounds like just forward testing. You do this for a few weeks to make sure that live trading will match backtests.

>How did Michelangelo create his masterpieces? Can one describe the process using any verbal language in sufficient detail such that another master or a robot could create David? That's an example of thought processes beyond language.

I'm not sure what you mean. He probably started with something "Ok, I need to create a statue", then "Who should I pick, I guess it should be someone Biblical, let's pick David because they like him in Florence", then "Ok, he was a healthy and muscular young man, and I have enough material for a 5 meter high statue", then "let's start with sculpting a general outline and then focus on head and neck shapes" (...) and finally "looks good, but the nose should be a bit smaller". I can almost imagine the whole thought process (except I know nothing about sculpting, but I'm not terrible at some other art forms).

There's nothing that is inherently non-verbal in this process. And all of these decisions can be described algorithmically and numerically (even though humans doing art usually compare their results to a reference images instead of doing 3d math in their head).
Hmmm, I don't think I know exactly what words I want so say when opening my mouth, but I usually do know exactly what point I want to express. Also, after having expressed my point I stop making noises. Some people seem to really need to say something, but then just go on meandering without giving any indication that they actually have any point to make.

Here, it is explained that “神“ would be used in a posthumous title out of politeness...

It's crazy how much time it takes for commonplace system design properties to get adopted by the larger programming discipline. Immutability for system security has been used for at least a decade. But software development exists within its own organism, protected by an impermeable membrane. New ideas from outside its domain (software design) don't easily pass through. Yet occasionally you have a programming organism whose focus is influenced by some other discipline (e.g. OpenBSD, for security) and some new ideas get passed through the membrane. It would be neat if we could bring back the heyday of research operating systems / software, to push the cultural envelope of software development to think more outside the box.
If you are talking about eliminating carbon you are currently producing this doesn't matter at all. If you deploy 6GW of solar in a year, you eliminate as much carbon as a 1GW reactor would, only it would take you 15 years of further carbon emissions to get there. You talked about hidden costs of removing carbon, and this is a good example of something that you will need to remove.

And that's the situation we are in. The discussion changes once you saturate the market with solar but even advanced economies are far away from that and the world as whole especially.
Honestly, I think it would have been better if the following was true:

1. it was portable
2. it was well documented ( I absolutely hated that I was finding out about some magical way of enabling something by putting magic string somewhere from a magazine ) -- all those options should be available for me to peruse. I am not even suggesting third party software, just Windows.

But I agree, somehow this idea seems better on paper than in practice.
I think they do dream. But their dreams are quite different from those who can visualize normally
If they expand their supply, I would expect that to lower prices, not raise them.

New legislation for rapidly moving new technology is not 100% clear at the outset.

Shocking!

The idea that if legislation is not perfectly crafted it’s bad is ridiculous. The only reason anyone even entertains this patently stupid concept is because the dysfunctional American system means you have to spend massive political capital to get legislation passed and once you did there’s almost no way to tinker the legislation to correct mistakes and handle unforeseen impacts.

Fortunately most of the rest of the world, especially the EU, don’t act that way. Yeah the initial legislation will have flaws. And they will fix them.

All that being said, considering Apple has consistently acted in bad faith with EU legislation I would wait until other non bad faith actors (so not Meta) also face similar issues.
Agreed: if you're willing to be as limited with composing in english as you would be with programming in C, lack of recursion is not an issue.

(there's a bit of a parallel, in that XVII english writers, not having readers as pressed for time as our current variant, make far more use of nested sub-clauses than we tend to; similarly, CPL, not having been as pressed for space as either BCPL or C, made far more use of nested sub-expressions than its successor languages)
Jobs felt the same way about Windows when the truth was mostly that both Apple and Microsoft based their work on ideas from Xerox PARC.
(I mean, this context gives a whole new significance to the whole term (AI) "hallucination", don't it?
For me: yes. Dreaming is the only experience that kinda matches the descriptions of others' mind's eye. Day to day? Just blackness, only the light that comes through the skin of the eyelids.
I've found that this only works in very specific circumstances. If you have any flexibility to your work schedule (which is a lot more common nowadays with any amount of remote work) this becomes massively inconvenient, as every small context switch means reseting your current system state (eg closing your dev tools).

I don't really have a set work schedule, so it's normal for me to jump between a work context and a play context. It's much easier to do by very rarely rebooting my computer (once or twice a month), so I can always pick up where I left off. The regularly scheduled update meetings do a good enough job of keeping procrastination in check.
There was a company that sold an external card with a patched MacOS. To prevent people copying their prom with an eprom programmer and a generic eprom card they switched lines on the data bus.

Atari had a truly amazing laser printer and with friend we managed to drive it from the Mac emulator via the Mac HP printer driver yielding an amazing quality 300dpi print for a relatively low budget.
I’m well aware of the Mountain of Tongues and Circassia, having traveled that region extensively (including Adygea) and read a number of history books about it.

My country (America) had their own colonial project around that same time period (and also conflated various native groups) - like, ever heard of Manifest Destiny?
You would think NASA would have been proactive here, reaching out before a claim was filed, to maintain good public relations.
Yes, from what I've heard other people with aphantasia often dream normally. I certainly do vividly, while struggling a lot to visualize even simple things in my minds eye.
Like some other good-bones free software, the UI is terrible. I challenge anyone who has prior CAD experience, but no FreeCAD experience, to install the software and design a simple bracket in under an hour.

I tried Fusion under Wine and it didn't really work. I haven't tried NX or Solidworks in the last few years.
But neither of those outcomes is desirable from a wider viewpoint. Society doesn’t benefit from companies only innovating by stealing from each other, nor does it benefit from active collusion.
Nah dude it really is as easy as eat less = lose weight. In all cases if you reduce your food consumption you will eventually weigh less this is thermodynamics 101. Nobody has to drink Soylent green mush or even just salads. Just eat less. And maybe go for a run here and there that helps too.
Well, you can now, and I do. It's hard enough living in California and especially San Francisco, and I believe being in the service industry here is no picnic. Tipping is the least I can do.
I grew out of Richard Stallman, but it's starting to grow back on me.
This seems totally contradictory to me.
Vladimir Sorokin claims modern Russia was founded by Ivan the Terrible. The war has fortunately caught him in Berlin, so hopefully he won’t end up in a Siberian prison.

The one part that directly contradicted Chomsky was the argument languages tend to minimise dependency length, which flies in the face of long range dependencies like question movement, topicalisation, pronoun binding etc. And misses the main point Chomsky was making: why have a system with movement?

The article seems to be arguing that statistically most sentences (in most languages) are simple. OK, sentences like "Which boys do the girls expect to fight each other?" may not be common, but you instantly understand that "each other" binds not to the closer "the girls", but the long range dependency "which boys". In order to understand it you reconstruct the question to its original position "the girls expect <which boys> to fight each other" to know that the boys are the ones fighting, and bind to each other (the boys are fighting the boys)

Why have a system like that (in basically every language)? How is that optimised for simple dependencies & communication?
I installed this flatpak-packaged Jagex Launcher and RuneLite, and it works flawlessly on Linux. It does run in Wine, but the package takes care of setting that up.

https://github.com/USA-RedDragon/jagex-launcher-linux-flatpa...

It is seemingly somewhat officially sanctioned, as a help article links to a repo that links to the flatpak.

Every time I’m reading about Aphantasia, I’m confused again that people really see stuff in their head.
I have basically the same as the person in the article. So, if you want to know anything, AMA.

I’m also trying to respond to a few questions which are already asked.
You mean Blackbirds?
Isn't that the map that comes with the game?

Edit: it's in the preview screenshots on the App Store. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hadean-lands/id918958300
I've been doing a lot of SwiftUI stuff lately and the compilation times are pretty crap even for simple applications. Change one line and it's a minute or two of compilation again.

Then there's this fucker for whenever you make a programming error involving types:

>The compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time; try breaking up the expression into distinct sub-expressions

Basically, your code has a type error somewhere in it, and you need to figure out where and how it's wrong.
Their documentation says "passes almost all tests": https://rustdoc.swc.rs/swc_ecma_parser/

Which could be outdated as well.

But if that's true, it's the problem isn't it? If some of the most important information about a critical part of the toolchain isn't up-to-date, how can I have confidence in this?

(Also for my specific use case, I need to set an ecmascript version, something that is common in JS based parsers, but it's not available in swc ecma parser. At least I didn't find it.)

For context, I contributed to acorn to fix an issue I found while using it in one of my projects. But that happened because I extensively used acorn in the first place. I don't quite have the confidence to adopt these Rust based tools yet.
I have a very limited visual imagination. I don't know if I would describe it as complete aphantasia, but I think it's close. Dreams are the only time I can see pictures in my mind.
This does not read like C at all.

I agree. Some people don't realize how many calories some of the things they regularly consume have, though, and I think that's why many have trouble losing weight, which is why it's important to track your calorie consumption when trying to lose weight.

I chose an ST because the Amiga was too expensive, the Mac didn't have colour and was very very expensive, and the PC was a wretched business-use-only text-only waste of desk space.

I had a 1040 STe. I rigged up a hard drive (the Atari ST had what was effectively a SCSI bus built in, it just needed a small adaptor board to adjust some signals). Installed MiNT (a multitasking operating system extension) and the GNU tools and was in developer heaven.

The ST was responsible for the desktop publishing revolution with a very affordable laser printer peripheral (although I couldn't afford one, it cost almost as much as a basic Macintosh). It was also a leading light in the music industry: I had a copy of Cubase v1.0 (a DAW), which was available only on the ST with its built-in MIDI out and MIDI through ports.

Unfortunately the company was run by the Tramiel family so it didn't really stand a chance. Then a couple of hears ago a derecho destroyed the drive shed where I kept all my old computers and I lost my ST. No more Time Bandits.

Have you read my comment at all?

The buried ones are the Moai that were abandoned during transport and they were buried by shifting soils, etc.

The islanders have not buried them. The statues the islanders managed to transport were placed on stone pedestals. Then, later, they've toppled them all, but only after Europeans visited.

Go 1.0 code mostly compiles and runs just fine.
Pretty sure those non-cooperative strategies quickly burn themselves to extinction though. The selection pressure itself would be regulated towards an equilibrium.

The thing about evolution is that you are sampling many times in different directions. So "luck" isn't that hard to achieve.
Show HN: Feedback on Sketch Colourisation
Hi
I am looking for some feedback on our new project "Sketch Colourisation". The envisioned UI and objectives are --

* An artist should have greater control on how to colour a sketch. While a text-to-image model lacks this fine-grained control, a per-pixel colourisation pipeline makes sketch colourisation a laborious process with high-entry barrier.

* What if an artist only draws a mask for a local region and specifies the colour palette for that local region? Then a neural network figures out how to colour the overall sketch -- while maintaining those local colour palette.

[I would really like a feedback if the above UI (i.e., mask and local colour palette) makes sense to users/designers. As researchers, we often have the wrong idea of what is desired by end-users.]

* On the exact implementation of the above concept, we designed a no-training based neural network framework -- and also make sure it runs on a Nvidia 4090. In other words, I will try to avoid any expensive training or inference -- which defeats the purpose of being useful to people (not just some research labs).

* Note, I am not so bothered about the exact implementation (or whether it is "novel") -- as long as it is useful.

* A shameless advertisement: The codebase (https://github.com/CHAITron/sketchdeco-code.git) is MIT License. It is no way near to being useful to people -- but I would really like to pursue this direction and your feedback/criticism will be immensely helpful.

Thanks
This hobby has its own unique charm
I do dream, but most of the time not with a visual representation. It’s more like reading a book.

There are very few occasions when I wake up and really have the memory of an image. But this fades so fast that I’m not able to really describe the image. I retain the memory of having a picture in my head. And it’s boring most of the time, because it happens in the middle of a dream and it’s basically just the last frame paused.
My general answer to this is to make sure whatever thing I'm building understands Pg COPY TSV syntax - specified by https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-copy.html under 'text format' - and export to/import from that.

It's nice to have something that plays nicely with awk/cut/diff/etc. and can be committed into a git (or elsevcs) repo.

(I'm not specifically wed to COPY as the form, but given it's well known and documented I've found it a good default)
>History shows us that slave labor cannot compete with free labor.

History shows us that you can build Pyramids and the Chinese wall with slave labor, probably not affordable with "free labor". But maybe we should also look at "modern slavery" that is "free labor" but without any chance to get another job or get reported to the police.

>it's about forcible slave labor, forced with guns and whips.

Worked incredible well for Belgium, and works incredible well for every warlord in west-Africa...and for us (>bloody< cheap raw-materials for our phones)

I know what you want to say with it, forcing specialized people with whips isn't going to give you good results in the long run, however if you just need their joules it's shockingly effective.
Active collusion - right. Companies stealing from one another? I think it can be argued that the consumer benefits from corporations imitating the good ideas of other corporations. A world with Android and iOS is better than a world only with iOS.
I refuse to use any site that is not compatible with the “I don’t care about cookies” extension. If I see the popup or the site breaks, I’m out.

Exactly. Same with Meta.
True, it's not exactly Counter-Strike, but PvP is an important (although optional) aspect. But I'm not sure if it makes any difference.
Your obvious conclusion that automation is the answer would be anathema to others who wish to maximize the number of people under their control and the amount of “work” they are doing. It’s a relatable mistake, many people including myself assume everyone thinks like they do before they are sorely disillusioned by rough contact with reality. Don’t make the mistake of thinking your side is in the majority either and that removing opposition or changing minds would be an achievable task.

If you want to build something you’ll need to strike out on your own and take only those who follow you into the wilderness.
I'm a dev who switched from desktop Linux to Windows with WSL without regrets.

That devs at a company use Windows doesn't mean they're forced to. Often it just means the designers also work on Windows.

Every single feature on the website works.

Why are you making such false claims? Which features don't work? Please list them.

*edit*

Just like I thought.

You will write walls of text about it being a scam, but you cannot list a single example of such a scam.

Only point to "complete takedown" articles with lies like V not being open source, or nonsense like V depending on git/libc/opengl/make.

You even say that every single feature mentioned on the website is a lie, while it can be verified in a couple of minutes.

What about all the technology (and engineers) at XEROX PARC that Jobs stole from there? Funny how history repeats itself.

I still use Windows for gaming, and it still shocks me every time how poor quality it is.

Within minutes of turning it on I get broken features, disjointed UIs, poor performance, outdated software, and exploitative functionality. Not just from third parties, who are a big problem, but Microsoft itself! They've had decades to address these issues but instead just chase marketable ideas. If they course corrected even a little every year they'd have something viable but it doesn't seem like that's part of their corporate culture.

But I guess I'm wrong because they're a multi-trillion dollar company and still dominate the PC market.
Does the following sentence make sense? "I marry."

It's a transitive verb.
