This is not unique to US in any way I can see. Also, doing by far the biggest financial decision of a lifetime should expect some serious financial analysis beforehand, and plenty of extra buffer for 'what if' situations. Quadruple that for US due to healthcare (and education for potential children) costs.

But what I see sounds mostly as FOMO and emotional decisions. Having home ain't some basic human right but a luxury, where I come from (central Europe) it was like that for hundreds of years. All generations living in 1 tiny basic house was the default, inheritance with many kids was very tricky and thus often cousins were forced to marry. Maybe there was some period in US where things were significantly cheaper, but what were the reasons? Maybe US wasn't so full of people. Maybe poor blue collar construction workers were squeezed much more harshly so that things were done cheaper. Also, construction got (at least in Europe) massively more complex and thus expensive due to regulations, materials etc. There can be 10,000 other reasons. But it seems otherwise smart folks here are mostly looking for first target to blame.

Cheap housing is a pipe dream in strongly capitalistic society like US. I know everybody not having it wishes for it dearly, at least until the moment they cross the fence to home ownership and then suddenly want to see their biggest investment appreciate sky high. Seems like human nature, me first and then the rest (I am not an exception, but then again stuff above doesn't make me lose sleep, life has way more important qualities than hoarding wealth at other's expense).
Looks like not a particularly good one at that (I would hope for a higher than average ability to get along with people).
Exactly. This is something we've discussed internally a LOT and this is basically my take as to why not to distribute the money elsewhere, with the added #4 of "people who donated to us, donated to us - is it really right to take their money and give it to other projects, even if we think it is?".
Don't have anything to add to the others. Just sharing a way of thinking for deciding between RAG and fine-tuning:

(A) RAG is for changing content

(B) fine-tuning is for changing behaviour

(C) see if few shot-learning or prompt engineering is enough before going to (A) or (B)

It's a bit simplistic but I found it helpful so far.

The main issue I have with existing time libraries, in Rust or other ecosystems is poor support for leap seconds. This is mostly caused by using UNIX timestamps instead of TAI internally, and this lib is no different unfortunately. There seems to be some way to support it with tzif files, but it does not have first-class support.

Here is the relevant Jiff issue with more details: https://github.com/BurntSushi/jiff/issues/7

UNIX timestamps don't use the SI second definition (instead it's 1/86000th of the current day, all UNIX seconds don't have the same duration) which breaks all correct duration computations. I understand that the tradeoff was to inherit compat with older time tracking methods and enable faster calendar formatting, I disagree that it was the right trade-off. UNIX timestamps mix representation concerns with data. In my opinion, leap seconds should be treated exactly like the 29th of February or time zones.

Booking.com isn't the market force keeping Ryanair's prices down.
> So your hypothesis is that factory jobs have not indeed dried up, and it's just all the women taking up those factory jobs instead?

No, the hypothesis is that men don't have as much responsibility. If they fail to provide women cover it.

The destruction of the traditional structures has its effects, good and bad. I dont' believe that women participating is a bad thing, on the contrary but new challenges come and taking an absolutist freedom stance without fixing the bugs that arise is a bad outcome.

It seems to me that nowadays social structure and norms are all in the ideal or virtual world, but the world is still physical and does not really care for ideals. As it never did.

People like watching excellence in action, especially if it's in a domain they can relate to in some way. Almost everyone has tried to run as fast as they could at some point, so they're naturally curious to watch others who have spent years training to do it really, really well.
“Out of the box SDKs make integration easy.”
Interesting that The Guardian is leading the way in finally having non-gendered headlines, i.e. not saying "Female physicist recognized 75 years after discovery" or "Rosemary Fowler, 98-year old physicist, recognized 75 years after discovery".

This will hopefully pave the way for truer equality in that the most common reaction reading this headline would probably be "oh no, why has this physicist not gotten the recognition" rather than the latter, which is more polarising -- it leads to either "outrageous, look here is one more neglected woman!" or "here we go, one more feminist complaint".
This is specifically addressed in the post you are replying to
> I believe at least in the UK, after the Tavistock scandal, people started asking questions. I mean, you mention taking do no harm seriously...

I think that's a good reminder/example that you you can't really reason from high-flying principles like "first do no harm" to actual behavior and effect, especially when politics and/or ideology are involved. If my ideology says X is harmful, and yours says X is needed to avoid harm, is harm being done or avoided? That's an political question, not a scientific one, and will ultimately come down to who has the power to impose their view.
Maybe, but he always sort of talked like that, even well before he got into politics. Just a rambling incorrect ding-dong that speaks with a far-too-high confidence-to-understanding ratio.
I'm not sure what the issue is here exactly, but there are surely use cases where a `std::time::SystemTime` (which you can think of as a Unix timestamp) is plenty sufficient. ripgrep, for example, uses `SystemTime`. But it has never used a datetime library. Just because Jiff exists doesn't all of a sudden mean you can't use `SystemTime`.

But there's a whole world above and beyond timestamps.

I'm frequently surprised by how little most software engineers know about IT, infrastructure, or hardware. The floor for basic familiarity outside of support is shockingly low.

I started as a BSD/Linux systems programmer / sysadmin, which required a working knowledge of infrastructure. Lack of ubiquitous resources meant higher stakes for correctness of work for the "whole stack". Now, there are as many abstraction and translation layers between the "code" and the hardware as people can come up with, despite there being excellent native tools (albeit, not sold by a vendor).

It's not worse or wrong, as long as you can afford it, but despite working on PaaS and IaaS up until a few years ago, I still don't understand why so many seem allergic to fundamental auxiliary skill sets like administration.

A high-stress work environment is hard on employees’ mental health. Research shows that frequent massage reduces cortisol, a major stress hormone.

Incorporating corporate massage into your workplace wellness program is an easy way to demonstrate that you care about your employees’ wellbeing and increase employee loyalty. Read on to learn more about why business trip massage should be part of your program!

1. It’s a Relaxing Experience
When your employees travel for business, it’s important to find ways to reduce their stress and improve their mood. Massages are a great way to help them feel more comfortable in new environments, ease their stress and tension, and improve their mental health.

It can also help them sleep better, which can be helpful if they’re traveling for work. In fact, research has shown that massage culjanganma can boost serotonin levels in the brain, which is essential for maintaining healthy moods and reducing depression.

A massage culjanganma is a great way to relieve chronic pain and improve your overall health and well-being. It can relieve headaches, aches and pains, and even general fatigue from sitting for long periods of time.

When selecting a massage service for your 출장, make sure to look for one that offers hour-long sessions and is affordable. They should also offer on-the-go services, so you can schedule your massage whenever it’s most convenient for you.

2. It Relieves Jet Lag
Jet lag is a temporary sleep disorder that occurs when you quickly travel across multiple time zones. It can also affect your mood and energy levels.

The body has a natural circadian rhythm that determines when it’s time to sleep and wake up. Our bodies adjust to daylight, and some researchers believe that the key to resetting our internal clocks is to get exposed to bright light in the morning or afternoon.

Massage can help reduce the symptoms of jet lag by promoting blood flow and reducing stress. It can also promote better sleep and increase levels of oxytocin, which helps to relieve anxiety and improves mood.

Massages can be a great way to relax while traveling, especially on business trips. They can relieve chronic pain from tight muscles and frequent sitting, help you recover faster after a long day of meetings or travel, and improve your immune system to prevent illness while you’re away.

3. It Helps Relieve Chronic Injuries
If you suffer from chronic injuries, getting a massage can be a great way to relieve pain and speed up the healing process. A massage can reduce the formation of scar tissue, improve blood flow to an injured area, and help relax tense muscles so nutrients can be better delivered.
One thing is for sure: voluntary signups of sovereign nations are not comparable to Moscow-level of extortion in any way.
This is a topic near and dear to my heart, because unwanted children leads to enormous suffering (which I have seen up close as a volunteer Guardian ad Litem, a legal advocate for children in the system). A recent thread on the topic of unwanted children at scale [1].

So I bought and operate a domain which points to the r/childfree subreddit wiki list of doctors [2] who will provide permanent birth control to people who want it without onerous conditions such as partner approval, being over 30, or having at least two or three kids first. I run marketing campaigns on socials with this digital property. Next steps are building a site to act as a "store locator" app for this data. My partner and I also contribute in r/sterilization for those seeking permanent birth control, helping folks navigate insurance (bisalps in the US are free under most insurance situations, and vasectomies are covered at 100% in 10 states) and logistics.

High level, we should collectively be robustly supporting parents who want to be parents, but we must aggressively assist though who would rather not. 40% of US domestic pregnancies every year are unintended [3]. ~600k children are in the foster care system [4], very roughly half of which are adoptable but are never adopted. It costs ~$310k to raise a child from 0-18 in the US [5], and this does not include daycare or college costs.

I am sure about Kodi not being able to perform remote viewing with the same compatibility and convenience as any of the popular dedicated media streaming platforms.

I get that you like Kodi, but listen to yourself. Kodi does all of this! Except you might need a plugin that doesn't exist for the one big feature that spurred the existence and popularity of Plex, except that some features work but not reliably, except that you need to actively manage the backend, except that the phone UI sucks.

So, there's your answer?
Hard G is "go". The name of the format if a play on words, in the US there is a brand of Peanut butter called "Jiff". The file format is supposed to be pronounced the same way (soft G). Some people, like the OP, claim that the G is supposed to be pronounced like the G in graphics (hard G). IDK why anyone cares.
Sorry, but neither eBPF nor Rust nor formal verification nor ... is going to solve that problem. Repeat after me: there are no technical solutions to social problems. As long as the result of such an outage is basically a "oh, a software problem! shrug", _nothing_ will change.

I think if you use something like Stripe Elements, rrweb won't have access to what user types anyway (as the actual input fields will be on a Stripe-owned domain in an iframe).

And you still regulate it, just differently.

The implied conclusion that regulation makes things expensive is wrong, and comparing the air travel market over half a century ago with the market today, and crediting a change made in 1978 for the difference doesn’t make sense.

EU air travel is quite regulated with e.g. consumer rights for cash compensation, hotel and food service in case of delay, and yet air travel reached a point some years before covid where some providers played with the thought of having tickets be free - the main source of income for the airlines was in duty-free on either end of the journey anyway, so more travelers meant more revenue even if their tickets were zero.

Disallowing discriminatory and unfair business practices is not the same as having the government set travel prices.
1. How does eBPF solve this? It makes it more difficult, sure, but it'll almost always be possible to cause a crash, if you try hard enough.
2. More importantly, the problem is rarely fixable by changing technology, because typically, problems are caused by people and their connections: social/corporate pressures, profit-seeking, mental health being treated as unimportant, et cetera. eBPF can't fix those, and as long as corporations have social structures that penalize thoroughness and caution, and incentivize getting 'the most stuff' done, this will persist as a problem.
> I find the realtime translation feature quite compelling. Audio translation requires everything being said twice so doubles latency. If two people from two language speakings both used this, it's a massive step towards a universal translator.

I thought keeping a single airpod in one ear would have this solved by now. Growing up listening to things translated by a 'lektor' makes me hopeful that most people can hear 'tone/emotion' from the speaker in one ear and 'message/content' from a translator in the other ear and use their mind to fuse the two back into coherence

I was excited to use this to translate signs / menus, until I saw it has no camera...

The serious science of trolling LLMs
I find this a bit hyperbolic, a program is a tool, code is a means to build that tool, restricting the feature set of a tool is not fascistic it is a design choice that is often for the benefit of the user, although I will concede certainly not always. If the user doesn’t feel your tool gives them the right options they can pick another tool. is making a hammer that hits nails fascistic because the user could have used the raw materials to make a screwdriver? Or maybe we shouldn’t build any more programs, your favorite programing language already can edit your photos! Good luck grandma!
You really shouldn't. You're adding to the stereotype that Rust developers are insufferable and not to be collaborated with. Scaring away good developers from your projects is a bad thing, not a good thing.

Why do you want it? What's your use case? And why doesn't a specialized scientific library like `hifitime` work for your use case?

Whenever people talk about leap seconds, it always seems to be in some abstract notion. But it's very rare to see folks connect them to real world use cases. I get the scientific use case, and I feel like that's well served by specialized libraries. Do we need anything else? I'm not sure that we do.

How to Write for Works in Progress
thanks for explaining! that sounds like, as long as the confined process couldn't mount more devices, it could definitely work, with a whole new set of core utilities that looked at predetermined filenames in the filesystem rather than taking filenames on the command line

This is exactly why.

When I (and the other original folks) decided to fork Emby to make Jellyfin, we had seen exactly what trajectory other projects in this space had been taking:

1. Start off small and FLOSS.
2. Attract a userbase.
3. Start requesting more and more money.
4. Start "paying full-time developers" or similar.
5. Add nagscreens, premium features, and the like to "increase revenue".
6. Go proprietary.

My extremely hardline stance on this has been to nip this trend in the bud right at steps 3 and 4 by taking ALL money out of the development process.

What we use donations for is a very small list, as mentioned on the OpenCollective page:

1. Paying for Infrastructure. Domains, VPSes, etc.
2. Each team member (contributors who are distinguished and invited into the org) gets a single one-time $300 USD credit for buying a client device to help them work on the project.

And that's it.

This is why I made this post, to basically say - in many more words - "hey, we have enough runway for a few years. Donate to individual people or other projects instead".
I've never seen Usain Bolt's speed in terms of mph before this article. A top speed of 27.8 mph is seriously incredible. Granted I'm no professional sprinter, but when I try to go much beyond 14-15 my balance can't keep up with the cadence and I start to trip over myself.

Not really. If this were true, one might expect to see, say, deficit spending temper when Republicans control both houses and the presidency.

Republicans just like to put debt into different things, like tax cuts for the rich.

Plus a good deal of the “wouldn’t it be nice…” is real-world tested and proven and the “yeah, but…” is nonsense.

Why do you go with "must"?

For example I interact with a medical app. When you open a patient card, there's lots of data getting requested. It halts the new context opening for a long time, even though you need only a fragment of this data. I'd love it if it didn't wait and instead opened the basic information with placeholder blocks that get loaded as the data comes in. You really don't need all the old visits loaded in a collapsed tree that you're not going to use. This would save significant amount of time ever day.
