> If that party can win elections by doing that, that’s what should happen. “Expertise” carries zero weight in a democracy other than its ability to persuade voters.

That's a pretty idealized view: The vast majority of voters just want competent governance, with guard rails to make sure the governors don't go too far, because they (the voters) have lives to live and other things on their minds.

As to persuading voters, we should remember the joke about Islamist parties' agitation for "democracy": One man, one vote — once.
> You have to care about this for every final commit that lands in the project

Same as having a standard coding style, you should have a standard commit message style that you do care about for every commit in the project. A mish-mash of variable quality and variable formatted commits more than subjectively looks bad - it reduces the signal-to-noise of the commit messages.

As for the `feat(scope):` in the subject line, it's a very succinct way to communicate the type of the change. Don't make me the read the whole commit to figure out if this was a feature or bug fix, or only affected the build.

> Just serve a changelog

Sure. But I want the changelog to list features first, then bug fixes, etc. How do I do that automatically with only the git log w/o some sort of standardized tagging of the commits?
who look like they could sleep anywhere else.

What does someone look like that could sleep anywhere else ? That seems like we should judge how a person looks and presents, which certainly means our judgement will be dead wrong at times.

I don't like this ruling because I think it will be used to harass people for appearing poor or homeless.
Since contents of certificates contents sadly often diff there was a ballot to streamline the contents to lessen the burden on implementations to interpret the differences.

Entrust missed/ignored the updates to how certificates were supposed to be formed and when caught declined to revoke the incorrectly issued ones (because it's probably a more or less manual process for many admins working in a pre-Let's Encrypt style of fashion) and they didn't want to inconvenience their customers and assumed that they themselves were the important party in the equation (CA's was that historically compared to site-admins).

The certificate industry has always been quite ad-hoc with CA's being entitled middlemen, we have Let's Encrypt and almost ubiquitous encryption now because browser makers and other internet actors saw security as more important than protecting the CA's business and now that LE is established Google,etc aren't the slightest interested in pampering CAs if they aren't interested in cleaning up the system.
Yes, it's quite simple. Whatever ruling helps the powerful is the one they make. It's incredibly blatant regardless of recent (post 1980s) manufactured from whole cloth "originalism", which is in sharp contrast with the actual views of the founders who expected the constitution to be rapidly and frequently amended to account for new factors.
It's weird, because there are (at least in the Rust "galaxy") several tiny, extremely distant constellations. I thought they were background decoration until I zoomed way in on them. Hard to image why they would be so distant if they're relevant.
My thought was to serve a 307 (or some other redirect HTTP code, clearly I am not a web developer) instead of a 404, not to serve the found content “as” the url that didn’t exist.

But agreed this would not be good general practice. It was mostly a thought experiment.
I understand that one reason for the continuing of Chevron deference is that Congress has been writing laws for the past 4 decades assuming that the agencies can iron out the ambiguities.

I wonder if going forward congress can just try to have those agencies iron out the ambiguities before passing the law? Or is the idea that its impossible to anticipate all possible edge cases and congress wants to let the agency iron out future issue?

I must make a confession: I've honestly never understood why JSX is considered hackier than, say, template literal based HTM (or especially the bespoke pseudo-HTML you find in frameworks like Vue, which has always felt to me like the worst of all worlds).

LLMs aren't "trained to pick a url from a database of known urls". Or at least, we have not collectively seen this yet, perhaps I am wrong. We explicitly wire things so we can use LLMs to generate data useful to index with existing search databases....

acting like LLMs are responsible for the reliability of identifying the source document is disingenuous when a large part of the value of an LLM as an asset is its role laundering other peoples' intellectual property without attribution.

When I used it with ollama in the terminal (first try prompt: "create a snake game in HTML canvas", nothing else) it went forever rambling. It started with the right answer in HTML code, but then it started explaining, and started repeating itself, and then it started to put things like random code snippets and random explanations that were nonsense like:

```python
def solve_quadratic_equation(a, b, c):
"""Solves a quadratic equation of the form ax^2 + bx + c = 0."""

discriminant = (b ** 2) - (4 * a * a)
if discriminant >= 0:
root = (-b + math.sqrt(b ** 2 - 4 * a * a ** b**

0.5 #

# Return None if the quadratic equation has no real roots
if (b ** 2) < (4 * c):
return None

# Calculate the roots using the quadratic formula
b = -b

# Handle the case of a complex discriminant

# Print the solution to the equation

Entrust has BIMI certs which use a different root (CN = Entrust Verified Mark Root Certification Authority - VMCR1) and for which your choices of a BIMI certificate are: Entrust or Digicert. I doubt it makes as much money as their web certs (BIMI certs are not super common, and they are expensive to issue since there's an actual validation process that typically involves a public notary validating the ID of a corporate officer).
If you believe https://bimiradar.com/glob

it looks like Entrust is selling on the order of a few dozen certs a week to maybe upwards of 100-200.

EDIT: I've asked Google if Gmail will be discontinuing support for Entrusts VMC certificate (and thus BIMI logos), I would guess not since BIMI has some actual requirements, but assumptions are not the best way to make decisions about risk (like our BIMI logo not working later this fall).
This allows you to calculate the Earth's orbital velocity per second, as the orbital diameter in millions, divided by 10.

So if you think the radius is 93m miles, you get 18.6 mile/sec,
but if you are not American, you think the radius is 150m km, so 30 km/s.

The English language evolves over time. In the context of AI, the word "hallucinating" is used to mean "presenting false information in a way that clearly indicates it _thinks_ the information is true".

i have been thinking about this too… wondering whether an office + 1br apt is better than a 2br apt with one of the br used as office?
Yeah - it was pretty chaotic when I was there too. We had to use the internal purchase order system to buy certificates from a CA. It was cumbersome as it required several levels of approval. I have long since quit IBM thankfully and had forgotten all about it until I saw this post today :-)
Yeah, I believe many charges get added on to work towards plea deals, at least in the U.S. “disturbing the peace” is pretty common here and can be applied to anything.

Intent is a critical piece of prosecution, though. Hard to argue that you were storing passwords for any good faith purpose, so I’d expect that charge to stick.

I think the ability for them to be reprogrammed makes them way more valuable than an ASIC. There is a performance penalty though, something like a 10x silicon area penalty, and 10x frequency penalty. But for some applications it's worth it.

It's the tragedy of the commons. Driving is very convenient, however it is also VERY space inefficient and congested streets with drivers slows down busses and makes public transit worse. Furthermore, the price of driving is not born fully by drivers. The noise and particulate pollution, increased danger to the public, and space taken by cars is not paid for by drivers in any meaningful way.
Yeah that's what I figured too.

It looks like the commits are lightly processed (scanning “type”, removing it, moving it to the correct section/heading), put in bullet points, adding a hyperlink to the commit hash, using section breaks for something (maybe per PR or something).

It looks nice. And verbose. Like a lot of refactoring bullet points.

The “squashed” commits don’t look good but that’s the fault of squash commits (as usual).

In the end this is a very light shim on top of git log. (Light in terms of data, not light in terms of the discipline and visual overhead the so-called Conventional Commits standard demands).
You are confusing Heritage and Federalist Society. Federalist put together the list of judges that was used for nominations in Trump’s first term.
> Do we really not record turbulence sensor data off the airplanes and download it when they’re on the ground?

No, accelerometer data is only recorded to the FDR. Which has a limited storage window (1-24 hours depending on the aircraft) and is slow to download requiring moderately specialized equipment and a technician to carry out the task. Aircraft downtime and technician hours are both expensive and in short supply.

> I’m also surprised that these airplanes have on demand satellite TV streaming to these airplanes but airlines claim that it costs 100k to add that to existing planes. There’s just no way it’s 100k per plane - there must be a cheap way to retrofit the data without having it be reliable since it’s opportunistic. And heck, France is doing it every 4 minutes for their planes so why can’t Americans figure out how to do it.

Everything on airplanes is expensive. Even cabin amenities. You have to prove it won't start a fire, was installed correctly, won't interfere with other equipment, won't interfere with the aircrafts structure, and again requires technician hours and aircraft downtime.

Positron isn't supposed to be a replacement for RStudio for all use cases (especially not this early in its lifecycle!).

How are the students quantified? How are knowledge and skills tested? Online cheating on tests is rampant.

Therein lies the issue: Regulators have gone beyond their authority, not only into what is unreasonable, but what is not backed by statute. Chevron said the courts should give deference, unfortunately that deference has gone too far.

Taking your point however, I think congress will eventually be forced to act on this. We do need some deference to regulators, but that deference has been turned into legislative abdication. This decisions sets that right.

When congress is ready to write a law that gives greater deference to regulators they will. Until then, in my opinion, this was a proper decision of government restraint.

I was confused at first because I immediately recognized Dorkly as a YouTube channel that was very popular on YouTube around 2010, they produced comedy animations based on video games though I'm sure the humor isn't as funny as I thought it was when I was 13.

I interned at a Lockheed facility (which is now a nice strip mall). The classified things are behind closed doors or in your computers. The labs where you'd work on classified equipment were behind coded doors, so they just wouldn't take anybody there. They really checked too. One time I was waiting for my friend to finish something in a non-classified lab that still had the code on the door. I was literally falling asleep for a couple of hours doing nothing so I decided not to charge those hours. A few weeks later my manager invited me into his office to reprimand me for not charging the hours because they audited the doors and knew where I was for how long. I got overtime because they tracked what was going on so well.
I agree on the "effective and efficient" point. I'd say the deception mainly arises out of ignoring that corporations have formed de facto government. That's the fundamental contradiction that causes the banner of "individual liberty" be transmuted into "corporate liberty", still ultimately denying freedom to individuals.

So I do not agree with the "useful idiots" blanket characterization. It seems needlessly divisive, when what people who've become myopically focused on the nominal government need is to see the larger picture whereby corporations that capture markets, collude, and create externalities also independently destroy individual liberty. Not solely by regulatory capture, or otherwise enabled by the nominal government, but rather entirely on their own due to the fact that markets are not entirely efficient (P != NP).

Factual info specifically looking for a link of something obscure where lots of similar (but incorrect) links exist.

E.g. "what is the IMDb link for the film Ghost Fever?"

Throwing that in Chatbot Arena will usually result in a random link back or the model will say it can't do it. GPT-4o gave a random link, Claude said it couldn't do it, oddly geneini-advanced-0514 got it right, so hard to tell if they are using Google in the background or if they do better.

But yeah usually IMDb links come back right for big films but tend to be hallucinated for smaller ones. That's just an example.

I think it's having to extend the syntax so dramatically and bring new semantics to the language (actually a new language) and necessicating an extra complilation step for dubious payoff.

It makes the language substantially more complicated, with additional corner cases (e.g. className and htmlFor). For what I see as solely matter of (bad) taste (being used to XML syntax for defining elements, and abhorring extra backticks?).

The directly-heated cathode (meaning that the heater is the cathode) tubes have another advantage: they are nearly instant turn-on, no warm-up needed. Same as vacuum fluorescent displays.

Reminds me: there are new tubes based on VFD:

https://www.korgnutube.com/en (only 12mW heater power)

Very old 1920s tubes also used direct cathodes (but used a huge amount of heater power). If you look at the circuits, they had to jump through hoops to have the desired grid to cathode bias while at the same time providing the heater current. I think this would be easier for logic gates: set all of them to ground.
