It was always going to be something like that. It's unlikely Amazon/Twitch wants to reveal exactly its costs. In general, people complain that egress bandwidth seems to be a high-margin line item for AWS.

The user agent hasn't worked users in quite a while now. They've become optimized to work for the website owner. Scrollbar behaviour is one example of this, but so are user-hostile input fields (e.g. not being able to paste email addresses in email confirmation fields, not being able to paste passwords, autocomplete being disabled for some fields and being unable to override it, etc).

At this point, I would pay good money for an actual user agent that is worthy of the name.

I wrote a rant about this on my blog last month. https://blog.melnib.one/2024/05/19/death-of-the-user-agent/
>> Universe could be itself infinite but locally everything is finite.

> You don't know that.

I think they were saying that it could be that the Universe is infinite with everything still being locally finite. I do not think they were asserting that everything is locally finite, I think it was included in the "it could be" part.

But certainly you're right that we don't know that.

I find a lot of these casual drug use articles to be a bit naive on safety. “It does not cause metabolites or react” well it obviously modifies several biochemical processes in order to have an effect, who knows what long term effects it has on your brains computation. Our understanding of the biochemical interactions of various systems is still exceedingly immature. It’s best to say that from a safety perspective it probably won’t kill you straight away… and it might not screw up your personality straight away.

I was in Japan in 2008 and the cellphones there were from the future! I remember being awed seeing people watching TV on the subway on their phones..

There was a bunch of infrastructure and services provided by the actual phone company NTT DoCoMo (as opposed to generally over the Internet) that let people watch shows, play games, shop, etc.. all on their mobile devices. Stuff that we do now every day, but this was almost 20 years ago.

They also had phones built for this purpose, like ones that had rotating screens that went into landscape mode (imagine holding a "T"-shaped device) for watching TV..

So it certainly felt like they were ahead, but you're right, it was a very different approach with everything coming from the phone company itself, and one that wasn't set up to stay competitive or stay ahead..
For the rare company seriously interested in security, a way to reward it might be occasional audits on the work of some randomly picked employee

The audits would grade the work in comparison to the company's accepted level of security, and for those which fall below measures are taken, while for those above there's an unbounded, significant bonus, higher the better the security practices of the employee.

A company might also set a upper limit for unapproved, revenue-affecting practices, of course

Ultimately it just feels better, over Keynote I’d say better alignment controls, less defaults to unset, collaboration and sharing which keynote lacks, zoom out to see the whole thing and move things about easier.

It's a one-way street with AI companies though, they are against IP protection for training data but support IP protection for the product of that training. Read the TOS/license of nearly any big model and it's clear the creator considers it and its output to be their IP and they will fight to restrict how you can use it for commercial purposes or training competing models, because those being a free-for-all would get in the way of their business model.

In practice it's less "abolishing intellectual property" and more "transmuting everyone else's IP into their own IP so they can be the ultimate IP landlords".

Over-provisioning by 7x might not be extremely practical.

I guess there is a lot of space in Spain that could be filled with solar panels (production only falls by ~50% there in winter so it’s not to bad) but there is certainly not enough grid capacity to transfer all of that north (and building new infrastructure is painfully slow and expensive in Europe so it will take a few decades to solve that)

My point is that solar is only a part of the solution and wind/etc. is probably more practical and more important in much of Europe.
Reimagining the Whistleblower Hotline: Why Whisper Is Better
Kinda related old guy story time: My high school had a small room full of 286es running Novell, which was dated even for its time. I was a self-taught nerd who took intro-to-programming classes to goose my GPA easily (it didn't help, I dropped out anyway, but that's a whole other story). Anyway, I had been exposed to early IRC and BITNet Relay and decided I could clone it easily by just appending a chat log to an ever-growing file on the Novell network, and the 'clients' would just periodically check this file for growth and print the new bytes. Once one important bug was fixed (you couldn't check the file too often or you'd melt the Novell server), the chat program was permanently installed as a plague upon the high-school programming classes. Novell had its own popup messaging in text mode, but they'd already locked it down due to student shenanigans, but this was a group chat that could be made to work wherever there was a world-readable Novell share, and iirc the network wouldn't function properly without at least one (the 'mail' directories? idk it's been awhile).

Gosh I was so proud. I never directly caused any computer problems in high school, but damn if they didn't try to find a way to blame me for every foul wind that blew. They deserved my little group-chat annoyance.
You actually can adjust the settings for this. In settings>simulation, instead of sameRestDensity being 8 make it 0 and make it higher for diffRestDensity. I recommend doing it with low gravity as well (you can get zero g by clicking enable accelerometer on computers without accel)
Keep in mind this was an OOM argument. How much info does one really need to collect from the radar? 1-10kb/s?

Even with 10 cars trying to scan the same region, that's about 5 OOM of headroom compared to wifi.

Also consider what modern military radiation radarss can do. The F-35 can actively track 50 targets, all in one direction. And it can do that while potentially 100s of aircraft all are sending radar beams into the same space, with some even activelly trying to jam the F-35 radar.

Obviously, really old and cheap radars can have interference issues. But any such limitation is not due to the Physics or even engineering, but rather on the cost of a radar sophisticated enough to handle its environment.
> Bandera and his nazis

Bandera was fighting against the Nazis by the end of the war. At any given time, he was doing what was prudent for his country and getting resources to fight the Cheka, because the Soviets were disappearing Ukrainians in the middle of the night and sending them to gulags.

Appreciating Ukrainian cultural traditions is not political. "Slava Ukraini" should not be a political or offensive phrase, unless you are a genocidal maniac supporting Putin's mass murder.

> a liberal attitude like yours.

Lemkos then and now generally had a pretty high opinion of Bandera (they were forcibly resettled by the Soviets). Doing ether is not a particular indicator of a liberal attitude -- it is a traditional practice in Lemko society, and it was so during the time Bandera was alive. Ether is fun and enjoyable, and I like it better than alcohol. I don't think it changes your political designation. It is maybe a Calvinist/Puritan attitude to see the consumption of ether or alcohol as associated with political liberalism, are you perchance of American Protestant stock? This attitude is extremely alien to me.
> Yes, you didn't, but the vibe of your message looks like whataboutism defense.

It is not correct to ascribe the blame for this issue on a social divide between the public and the establishment/aristocrats/elites/etc.

Many of those culpable are pretty ordinary solicitors and technology contractors and not, eg, peers of the realm.
If you have a chance, the sedately paced but brutal TV adaptation of the scandal is well worth the watch. What they did to a demographic of genial middle-aged village shop proprietors to cover up their own administrative and regulatory failings was nothing short of stochastic terrorism.

I've been developing with Deepgram for a while, and this is one of the coolest demos I've seen with it!

Adding the word 'just' doesnt make it any easier. Something I've noticed is that people who have never done something themselves and are telling someone to do an difficult task, will use:

Ironically, I think having a Twitter clone be called Open-X might fly legally, since that's generic enough, but pretty much any other instance where the trademarked name is very specific, like Open-Google or Open-Facebook would be surely easy to be removed by a judge. It's just that it takes a while for this process to happen, and until there's a legal injunction you can still use the name.
Many 'dubious-legal IPTV services' will use stolen or trial AWS, Azure, Cloudflare, etc accounts for their CDN and when the account gets locked they just spring up another account.

So the cloud providers tend to be the one's paying and consequently their legitimate customers pay.
> Marketers necessarily sell something that doesn't exist because part of their job is creating that thing.

Funny. I thought a marketer's job is helping companies sell their product, not selling a nonexistent product based on a vision. The individuals and companies doing the latter are known as grifters, snake oil salesmen and scammers.

The iPhone succeeded because it was a fantastic product released at the right moment in history. Apple saw a major gap in the market, and they filled it brilliantly. No amount of marketing would've made the iPhone a success if it wasn't an outstanding product on its own right. Apple embellished its capabilities with its usual marketing tactics, but the product was real, and people wanted it regardless.

What you're advocating for is exactly what Theranos did. Market the product first even if it doesn't exist yet, and the product will miraculously materialize from that vision. This is known as fraud, and is what rightfully landed its CEO in prison.

Joke or not, you're still demonstrating that you're naive about the scope of brand strategy.

The majority of brand management work is not material that is shown to the public, it is strategic decision making about how to position a brand and control it's reputation across markets. This includes yuppies in NYC and teenagers in Southeast Asia. The cultural positioning of Apple is a function of western hegemony and global memetics. An Eastern European housewife that wants an iPhone doesn't want it because she's done the tech research to understand that it is the most reliable and technically sound product, she wants it because Apple has taken great care to maintain their image through brand strategy. She probably sees iPhones on social media, in the hands of celebrities, the nicest store in her city is the new Apple outpost, they're teaching classes on apps and she wants to have the experience that she sees other iPhone users having.

Your misunderstanding is a larger trend in the tech space of people overvaluing "utility" instead of recognizing that the driving forces of any industry-- not just tech-- cannot be reduced to a spec sheet.
> ‘I was simply not aware of the duties on a prosecutor to make sure an expert witness was fully aware of their duties.’

We cannot have a system where people can be wrongly convicted while being denied a proper defence due to incompetence. Either incompetence cannot be a defence, or convictions must not be permitted to be made where incompetence might lead to an injustice.

Or another way of looking at this: "the prosecution's case would fail if anybody involved on the prosecution's side turns out to be incompetent" should be an absolute defence in any trial and if that situation arises then it must always fail to result in a conviction.
Depends if it's already been done before, in which case "just" would then have been just used quite justly.
I just really can't agree that it's at all comparable.
