That paragraph of the article looks to be ~6 years out of date according to the network manager version number it lists, around the time of the initial iwd release, and the whole article seems to be at least 2-3 years out of date since then iwd is well into version 2.x now.

Distros like Ubuntu have defaulted to iwd as the NM backend for Wi-Fi for a couple years (and now in the LTS version). It really is a quite popular and stable replacement to wpa_supplicant.

If all of this had happened during a time of low demand the company would be facing a far more dire situation, likely with many major airlines canceling orders. But since airplane demand is very high and order books are full, airlines have to keep their orders at Boeing if they want new planes.

And as it stands they've already been losing money for the past 5 years. They could be losing a lot more money.

Granted a lot of those losses are due to their own mismanagement of projects like KC-46, Starliner, AF1, etc.

Actually, it's the same point.

We are currently trying to punish entities (with fines), and it's ineffective.

We should move back to punishing people more, and moving back the responsibility to people, instead of pretending companies are people, and therefore responsible.

No? With WebGL and soon WebGPU, or in this case here with writing to a imagebuffer and just passing that to canvas, you don't have to use the DOM anymore since quite a while.

Interesting devices. One thing that I've noticed with many of the cheaper devices is the lack of regular security updates. The phone claims to offer 2 OS updates and 3 years of security updates, which is good IMHO.

And, of course, the telemetry concerns are always there; though, to be fair it's a question of whose intentions do you fear more.

The insurers make new diagnoses after reviewing medical charts, sometimes using artificial intelligence, and sending nurses to visit patients in their homes. They pay doctors for access to patient records, and reward patients who agree to home visits with gift cards and other financial benefits.

Insurers added diabetic cataract diagnoses to 148 patients treated by Dr. Howard Chen, an ophthalmologist in Goodyear, Ariz. He said he saw at most one or two such cases a year.

He said he charges insurers $40 per patient to cover his costs for providing them with medical charts.

“If they are just making stuff up, then why do they even need or want my charts?” said Chen.

I like this discussion around problems that are hard or unsuited for TDD. I've tried to tackle numerical problems like an iterative root solver (ultimately via a well-known algorithm like Newton's method) and it felt awkward. The tests around the output are either unrealistically constrained like "given this starting point, this function, and this number of iterations, have a floating point result within this precision" where I have to calculate those targets and tolerances by hand or have the completed algorithm I believe is already correct to get them.

The progression of tests you would have are also non-trivial. I found myself spending more brainpower and time figuring out the "right test" than what I could do with confidence and a set of more traditional test cases.

I think where it gets challenging is when you want a specific algorithm which in TDD is an "implementation detail" and against some of the core spirit spirit of the process of letting code naturally evolve. I also don't think that doing TDD should mean "you can't ever write Newton's algorithm". I settled on "write some reasonable tests around some sets of functions, iterations and/or tolerances", wrote some of the algorithm with very low level tests (which could have been made private which rubs me the wrong way too), kept that part of the code small, and wrote what I needed. That's basically been the philosophy I've seen in larger and reliable numerical packages.

That doesn't mean I think TDD has "failed" and it's still my main choice when I'm hacking out something I want to live for more than a few hours. It's a useful tool, still has very broad application, but like anything with coding you need to pull out the tool for the job.
With respect to those laid off, because losing your job sucks, I never understood the point of DevRel. Why would I watch weird YouTube Shorts when I could read docs?

Apple does do a good job of packaging their stuff.

For example, Time Machine, which didn’t really do anything other OSes didn’t, but Apple integrated it into their universal preview system and gave it a nice fun and easy to use interface along with making it easy to setup on install.

In Windows you had to dig into a tab on the rt-click properties menu and the best you could do was find previous versions by date, and I’m still not clear on how you enabled/disabled Previous versions on install.

Of course, Time Machinenis also a great example of how Apple often overemphasizes aesthetics at the cost of actual function, where Time Machine is notorious about being extremely flaky about actually restoring from backup (to be fair, I was among the “lucky” people who’ve only had positive experiences with Time Machine, including a full restore).

I guess it depends how good your search is. Bit of an ongoing battle.

But there is a lot of clickbait dross on youtube also.

Your first question is very strange. I say "I guess X is a thing that happens sometimes" (and went on to say: but I don't see much sign that it's happening in these particular cases, and if you claim it is then I'd like to see some evidence). Your response is: "Can you prove that X doesn't happen?".

If you regard that discussion between NdGT and CJ as showing how dumb a well-respected scientist can be, then it seems to me it would be useful for you to explain what about it shows that.

(So far, my requests for clarification and explanation and explicitness from you have been completely ignored.)

Could you give a few examples to show that atheists and/or scientists (of course those two categories are not at all the same) think their intelligence or rationality is "absolute"? (It would also be nice to know what you mean by that; I don't know what it would mean to call someone "absolutely intelligent" or "absolutely rational", unless what it would mean is that they never make any mistakes, always draw all inferences that would be valid, etc., and if you think anyone believes that about themselves then once again I would like to see some evidence.)
Semantics, but might be important. As far as I am aware what you are describing is identity, while personality is something more robust. You identify with things in a relative manner and you do things in a personal way.
Yeah, but it is slowly getting better.

> Doing math scales to infinity only given an error rate of zero

This is true, I had omitted it for simplicity; It is still the same approach applied to scaled problems. Humans don't execute it perfectly, but computers do.

With humans, and any other fallible but "true" math system, the rate of errors is roughly linear to the size of the problem. (Linear to the # of steps, that is)

With LLMs and likewise systems, this is different. There is an "exponential" dropoff in accuracy after some point. The problem-solving approach simply does not scale.

> you will see that its approach will not be dissimilar to how a human would reason about the question internally.

"Not dissimilar", but nevertheless a mere approximation. It doesn't apply strict logic to the problem, but guesses what steps should be followed.

This looks like reason, but is not reason.
Oh believe me I read the second scenario several times.

For the first one it's "blatantly obvious" that you should just stop overtaking if someone is being hostile against you. Even if you have a rally cross situation behind you, the physics works out to be safer if you abort.

Second one is rather confusing, but it would appear that this driver of D having realized intentions of C decided to brute force the situation with speed, making driver of A to solve everything again with even more speed.

This mentality of speeding just ends up amplifying until something gives.
The "hard" way is often the simple way with these sort of things. What makes it easier is while building out your code, you make little pieces of UI to visualize what you're doing. Think of them like unit tests or test driven development. Then you can take those, clean them up a little and publish them.
Speaking of reasoning, how do you know what is happening inside the mind when it "reasons"?

And while you're at it: what is happening inside the mind when it reasons?

I'm confused about this. Since when can't you enforce a schema on a document you're storing? Did you have no way to change the data before it hit the database?

> wifi disconnects

This is more likely to be a driver issue than management issue.

I think, this was posted to HN before, but I cannot find the article right now, but the gist of it is: both WiFi h/w vendors and Linux driver authors are to blame for the dismal state of events. On the h/w vendor side everything as per usual: no drivers, or broken drivers, incorrect product labeling or self-identification, false or imprecise advertisement of available features. On Linux side: slow inclusion of community-provided drivers for various WiFi modems, no real effort at cataloging and unification / systematization of available drivers.

My experience so far is this: Intel h/w is the one that has best Linux support. So, if you are on Realtec or Mediatec, you are getting the short end of the stick.

Another universal problem: WiFi protocol keeps iterating at a relatively high speed. Which means that you are often in a situation where either your modem or your router don't speak the same protocol at a good level, and the middle-ground that they find is not well-supported or, sometimes will only be found after lengthy unsuccessful attempts by both sides to do the handshake. This is often also exacerbated by the management software which may misidentify these "handshake problems" and "solve" them by restarting something in the network stack, essentially sending you into an infinite loop of trying to connect.

In my unfortunate case with my latest PC build, I had to swap three WiFi modems before I found one that worked satisfactory with the router I have. So, if you have some extra $ to throw at your problem: maybe try getting another WiFi modem?
> I am baffled by this. Not only, because I use the online website (= I am not using the API, like in a terminal)

Why would this baffle you? API's are typically accessed programmatically, so there would be no human to solve the captchas.

To prove that it's a Human accessing the interface and not a robot.
People keep saying this but it borders on conspiracy talk. The Air Force leadership has been pissed off at Boeing for well over a decade. Every project they've been given has turned into a clusterfuck even moreso than average. They fortunately had the foresight to not give them any cost-plus contracts, so at least it's Boeing eating most of the cost overruns rather than the Air Force, but the point remains that Boeing mismanagement has been a headache for the military.

Politicians care about getting elected, which means they don't want layoffs on their watch. Politicians don't care what the military thinks or else they'd stop funding a lot of dumb projects that the military doesn't give a shit about - of which there are many.

There are so many examples of congress putting their hand on the scale that I really don't understand the popular insistence that the military is the problem here.

DevRel were often the ones writing and updating those docs, especially docs that are specifically tailored to integrating with specific frameworks or workflows.

Different developers have different styles. I'm personally inclined to seek out raw API docs, attempt to understand the mental model intended by the developer, then and figure out how to integrate that into my workflow myself. But I've learned from shipping a devtool that a lot of developers really appreciate tutorials that meet them at the libraries/frameworks they already use.
