There's fees for handling cash as well. They're just less obvious.

In the old days, those armoured vans used to have to go to stores every single day at peak times (Xmas, etc.). Plus you've got to pay for bags of change to be delivered. You've got to pay for a safe, insurance for your safe, plus a hard limit that safe is allowed to hold. If you're going to go over you need to request an on demand pickup from the cash people. You've got to have people in store collecting the cash, accounting it, trying to catch embezzlement, the cost of embezzlement, etc.

All those costs were added on to the cost of goods.

I used to work in the industry in the 90s, can't remember what any of that cost now, but I reckon it's comparable to the card merchant fees.

Yes, the present duopoly is taking the piss with their fees, but accepting cash is also expensive.

As Steve Jobs said:
"If you were a product person at IBM or Xerox, so you make a better copier or computer. So what? When you have monopoly market share, the company's not any more successful.

So the people that can make the company more successful are sales and marketing people, and they end up running the companies. And the product people get driven out of the decision making forums, and the companies forget what it means to make great products. The product sensibility and the product genius that brought them to that monopolistic position gets rotted out by people running these companies that have no conception of a good product versus a bad product."

The claim there was never about the OS being spyware though so that link feels like a stretch even then.

It’s always been about server and infrastructure access. But beyond that, the Prism leaks mostly applied to telecoms.

A lot of conspiracy minded folks failed to see the forest for the trees because they failed to grok the entire infrastructure between the device in their homes and the greater world.

It’s much easier to think the device in your hand is betraying oneself than to think about the immense number of other components like telecoms, servers, MitM etc that comprise modern communication.

OK, not buying Sleep Number.

I slept on inflatable mattresses for years, until the company making them started outsourcing to China and the seams on the internal baffles broke on two mattresses.
Funny part to me is that I fully assumed that this was a post about hacking Eight Sleep beds by someone who didn't want to explicitly name the company, presumably for vague legal reasons.

Then I got to a picture of an apparently real "Number Sleep Hub" and my mind was blown. WTF are we in a timeline so weird that there are two companies making water cooled beds, one is called Eight Sleep and the other is Sleep Number? It's like the RNG for this instance had a bad seed.

>the framing as a resistor network since I think that should be linear

transistors are essentially non-linear, but they amplify and can be made to amplify linearly through the use of feedback resistors: if you divide the output voltage across a resistor pair which fixes the output as ratio to the input voltage, that geometric relationship will hold across broad range of input/outputs. for most applications you want linear amplification. (transistors work as a function of current, but passing the current through resistors yields a voltage measurement) a transistor can be thought of as resistive if you treat its voltage:current relationship as a measurement of resistance.

This is excellent journalism.

Digging into an issue that is affecting lives in such a drastic way and bringing these issues to light.

Like this part of the article for example:

Until The Times told the Navy of the lab’s findings about the SEALs who died by suicide, the Navy had not been informed, the service confirmed in a statement.
A Navy officer close to the SEAL leadership expressed audible shock, and then frustration, when told about the findings by The Times. “That’s the problem,” said the officer, who asked not to be named in order to discuss a sensitive topic. “We are trying to understand this issue, but so often the information never reaches us.”

>claims these things

What he actually claims:

I would like to emphasise again that Ukraine is not just a neighbouring country for us. It is an inalienable part of our own history, culture and spiritual space. These are our comrades, those dearest to us – not only colleagues, friends and people who once served together, but also relatives, people bound by blood, by family ties.

>criticizes Lenin and Stalin

He criticizes the Soviets for creating Ukraine as we know it—Donbass, Crimea and so on. Artificial borders, a people divided; precisely to prevent the SU from becoming synonymous with Russia.

And it wasn’t just the Soviets who sought to use Ukraine against Russia.

Every day Ukraine-supporters whine about what they consider lackluster support from the West. What’s actually happening is obvious but wishful thinking and a quality reality distortion field prevent enlightenment: While there are real limits of supply, and at times they might have in fact entertained the idea of “winning,” the basic goal is and has always been to cause as much death and destruction as possible without actually getting into a shooting war with Russia. And, of course, most of that death and destruction happens in Ukraine.

And then they have the gall to cry “scorched earth.”
Only in the EU. Highlighting that that the only reason they’ve changed their mind is because of regulatory pressure. Android allowed alternative engines on day one, iOS allows it, what, 17 years after launch? It’s still fair to criticise Apple for the time it took and the extra lengths they’ve gone to in order to only allow it where they’ve been forced.

I don't know what you are even going on about. Necessary and Proper Clause does not say what you think it means. Necessary and Proper Clause in this case says Congress could legislate in this area and they did until budget cuts made it till they couldn't. Then Executive stepped in and said "Industry will pay for it", they sued and here we are. Just like IRS pays for tax auditors.

Congress could still step in here and just make it clear "All monitors shall be funded by fee set by Government." and party over. I'm not sure why Congress didn't do that originally with this law.

I honestly don't understand how this doesn't fall afoul of the Article 1, Section 10 Titles of Nobility clause. I asked a lawyer who wrote about this clause once in an email and he thought it odd to think that this is a violation of the Titles of Nobility clause. But shouldn't any heritable and transferable privilege to a public good be considered a "title of nobility"?

The 15-30% isn’t for credit card processing. In countries where Apple has allowed external payments, they’ve broken out the cost for payment processing to 3%.

If you’re talking about standard rates, 30% is standard in most online stores like Steam, Google Play, PSN etc… None of them purport that the 30% is solely for payment processing.
The overarching point appears to be getting rid of angle brackets, which is not something that Duff is doing. Further, Duff's device keeps case labels on the left of its control structure; moving ifs to the left is the other "innovation" here.

> I think of Apple kind of like Nintendo, but for computers.

Then hopefully you understand why people get more upset over Apple's arbitrary "ecosystem" decisions than they are with Nintendo. I love Nintendo, even for all the mistakes they make. But they sell a toy; a games console that is strictly used for entertainment with no auxiliary purpose. Nobody is suing Nintendo because their PDF won't open on their Switch; Nintendo just doesn't offer that functionality, from anyone. There is no unfair market segmentation because Nintendo doesn't segregate functionality by-developer.

> What market is Apple dominating?

Have you not been following the DMA? It's software; they refuse to offer any form of competitive software distribution. Because of Apple's first-party advantage, they can explicitly block competitors from ever shipping a viable business, and until recently they even blatantly forbid the distribution of GPL-licensed apps. If Apple wants to play the Nintendo defense, then they can get both barrels that Microsoft dodged. I really have no patience for grown-up developers that want to rely on the benefit of the doubt we give a toy company.

By the same principle, these are exactly the same:

These are the simplifications you'd do. You only need to know that a[x][y] is equivalent to (a[x])[y], and that a[x] is the same as x[a].

arr[i][j]

Yeah. That's actually one of the things that makes this story so interesting: It took place exactly at the dawn of the inter(arap)net, and physically close to BBN (which was the arpanet implementor), so there was lots of sharing between MIT and BBN, in particular, McCarthy put a lisp on BBN's PDP-1, and Bernie Cosell's Lisp ELIZA, which he did from the algorithm in Wiezenbaum's CACM paper, was the one that became public, so everyone thought that ELIZA had originally been implemented in Lisp, which was wrong!
If I understand right, the existing USB ports are only USB-C. I'm not sure of what implementation the Nano has but if it supports USB-PD it may be able to output up to 20V if the "main" connected device asks for it.
500mm isn't low by any means, it's moderate. Almost all Europe has around 500mm annual rainfall. It may seem low compared to let's say Mississippi, but that is because Mississippi is as wet as it gets outside the tropics.

The fields were abandoned because the prices were so low that cultivating them wasn't profitable. This in fact could have caused the drought as well, as much of the rain in such climates is recycled - the water that evaporated rains back down. And, it can't evaporate well without plants to bring it up from the soil, but only the surface dries out. This might have lead to the dried out top layes getting repeatedly blown away, until the fields got successfully overgrown, and the rains returned.
I feel like it would be easy to just mandate stores to have to allow for cash transactions. It seems simple to enforce too, just walk into a store and try and by something with cash. If not, report/fine.

As a Canadian, I also feel like there are so many more pressing issues right now, like housing, employment, inflation, immigration. Does this cash/cashless issue somehow affect one of these things?

I'm not trying to convince you or anyone else to never smoke cigars. I just think that it is fair to make the point that cigars are not necessarily entirely safe, even if the relative risk for lung cancer is less than for cigarettes. I didn't even necessarily even make this point, as with my previous comment, I simply made two separate statements, and you came to a possibly implied conclusion yourself.

Regardless of the safety of cigars, I fail to see the logic behind how the idea that the relative risk of wood smoke compared to cigar smoke is supposed to convince anyone that cigar smoke should seem safe, considering that wood fires are no longer commonly used to heat homes in the developed world. Indoor smoke from heating and cooking has been well-established as a carcinogenic risk, but people not using wood to heat nor using smoke-point inducing temperatures when cooking, do not regularly expose themselves to these risks.

Also, I never claimed that alcohol did not increase carcinogenic risk. I make no position on that. However, given the proposition that alcohol is a carcinogen, then as cigars use is not mutually exclusive to alcohol use, and as smoking cigars incurs some carcinogenic risk, then for users of cigars and alcohol, cigar use would be an additive risk along with the risk incurred by alcohol use.

I find basics of most AMQP systems to be extremely reliable. Message on, one time delivery with message hiding until expiration of TTL.

Similar to this, Typecraft on YouTube has an excellent "Neovim for Newbs" course that is really great. He starts with vanilla Neovim and basically turns it into an IDE. He uses some of the same plugins as this article does, but also goes into depth for "the new hotness" (as this article calls it). What is quite nice is he breaks the different functions up into separate lua scripts rather than putting it all into one big config file.

There is a separate playlist that shows how to smoothly integrate Tmux with Nvim so you can do things like Ctrl H/J/K/L between Neovim splits and Tmux splits seamlessly.
CI pipelines are worse than that. When a CI pipeline flags a vuln in a dependency it typically goes to the dev couched as a "defect" they need to remedy as part of their unrelated PR.

Left entirely out of the consciousness horizon is the realization that the code is almost certainly <<running in production right now>>. Where is the check that it hasn't been exploited, or concerning what the attack surface is in the product (or even if continuing to embrace the dependency is worth the hassle)?

For credit cards, my access can be disabled when the two networks are coerced into blacklisting me. For cash, the imaginary evil powers would have to convince tens of thousands of individual stores to do the same. And even then, it would be impossible to enforce, because with a cash payment, there is no record that could be checked to enforce compliance.

This happens a billion times a month in chatGPT rooms. User comes with a task, maybe gives some references and guidance. The model responds. User gives more guidance. And this iterates for a while. The LLM gets tons of interactive sessions, it can learn how to rank the useful answers higher. This creates a data flywheel where people generate experience and LLMs learn and iteratively improve. LLMs have the tendency to make people bring the world to them, they interact with the real world through us.
