Por que no los dos?

Both are dick moves, verging on fraud if you've made money by ostensibly “selling” something that the customer finds themselves not actually owning, aren't they? Why should either of them be legal?

I believe that the proper term is "vim disciple"
While it's true, it's not always possible to do so. We also have to take this into our scope :)

I also can recommend "Nervenschoner" add-on (for Firefox, idk if other browsers are supported too)

Add-ons like "I don't care about cookies" (which is not maintained anymore) do exactly the opposite of intended: they solely try to find the "accept all" button and click on it. It's in the name hahahha

I just installed the package called `racket` from Termux's upstream, and it seems that they're using racket-minimal for that. Bit of a gotcha, but at least it doesn't seem like there's a bug. Thanks for the tip.
How is that relevant to the comment you're responding to? It's not like the maker added it to Sophos voluntarily.
Your comment reads as a deflection from the fact that human activity IS the cause of the climate changes we see today.

Without that the climate flux would likely be nowhere near as rapid, and we might not be scrambling to adapt.
I'm okay with x, but only x. Naming things can be hard so you get one freebie, but only one, so you better figure out a proper name for everything else after you use x.

Combining Passage, pass-otp, and age into a single Go app has actually been on my personal hobby-project TODO list (but I haven't gotten around to it yet).

Integrating age plugins into this binary is not something I would do, though. Besides the fact that the plugins are separate projects with their own release schedules, they are also in different languages (plugin-yubikey is Rust, plugin-se is Swift, ...), and you would need to fork them anyway for communication. I guess you could bundle the binaries together in a package, and make sure the search path searches for the bundled binaries as a fallback.

By that logic, any product/organization that generates revenue mainly through ads would be an ad company. Search is the product that (probably) carries most of the ads revenues, so that's the main product, and ads are the means for generating revenue around it.

For Americans who've never heard of it, FedNow is seemingly using a 'a bespoke flavor of the ISO 20022 specification' (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36805571). I think that it's a pretty handy format to be familiar with, and is quite simple to work with too.

I like this because it points out the nerd aggrandizing while elbowing hustling. I could never find some person - OpenAI employee #2, Torvalds, or otherwise - going on a Job Tour captivating.

They're all perfectly great and relevant people. I don't mean to dismiss them, just the posturing.

More productively, I just don't see the benefit. Modern intellectual property behavior makes this particularly adversarial. People like to be celebrities and build a brand, so it'd be LinkedIn but louder.

Airplanes can't do this either. The reason you paid 100€ is that your ticket did not include paying for cleaning up the mess the plane has left behind

I'm happy for everyone to fly to and from work if they'd also pay for cleaning up the pollution it causes. We have several options, carbfix and olivine weathering come to mind but there's also at least one company who turns atmospheric CO2 back into fuel, we just need to start doing it after realising that what we're doing is only possible because the climate hasn't caught up with current habits yet
"CrowdStrike questioned why Delta suffered more than its rivals. The security company cited Delta’s “I.T. decisions and response to the outage” and noted that the airline turned down “free onsite help from CrowdStrike professionals.”"

Were I Delta, I wouldn't be quick to take help from CrowdStrike, either, given how incompetent they are. Further, their advice might be biased towards CYA.
I’m fully onboard for net zero but:

> What's sidestepped is the band aid temporary nature (with side effects) of continuously emmitting sulfur and the fundementally not even break even state of CO2 sequestration

That is completely untrue and the usual disingenuous "let’s never talk about capture and geo engineering less it distracts from our goal of reforming the world from morally impure practice" served by the traditional aler-mondialists/ecologists.

The fact is, even if we reach net zero in 2050 - which is unlikely - the amount of GHC in the atmosphere will be quite high and the capacity of the ocean to absorb some which we are relying upon is far from infinite and might be slowing down. We need capture. We won’t fix the issue without. And to do that we need time which geoengineering could give us.

Regarding the emission of capture projects, I am assuming you are using the traditional accounting trick ecologists use when they want to discredit something: you count the full estimation of emission during construction with no amortisation using a broad accounting scope for companies involved, use the average worldwide emission for a watt discounting the actual source of energy used, and associate GHC to water use?
That is why you have rosters.

I used to have a map showing Sikkim, given to me by my grandpa.

In my experience at the frontlines (banks allowing users to submit SEPA XMLs), the situation is a lot messier. I ended up building an exporter from Xero (globally renowned cloud accounting software) to SEPA for both payments and direct debits, and we have several bespoke export templates for a handful of banks that want it this-not-that way.

I wrote a bit about the tool and my experience with SEPA standards at https://evrim.zone/blog/projects/batch2sepa, check it out!
Man this brings back so many memories :-)

Definitely a fun read. Debugging crashes has, in the last decade or so, become something a bit like a "lost art". Noone looks at coredumps in the cloud ...

I don't want to outdo you on Solaris debugging (plenty of old-time Solaris folks at Oxide who are totally capable to show how to get things like open files and their contents from a coredump, or how to configure the system to include those should it not be there ... etc ... etc ... Solaris has the best coredumps for all that's worth ...).

A note on the fix side of things though, while adding pthread_get_attr_np() for stack location/size gives Solaris the Linux interface, it already has its own for those - pthread_attr_getstack{size,addt}(), see https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19455-01/806-5257/6je9h032l/inde... - I happen to remember this because I used this decades ago somewhere in the Solaris name lookup code to choose at runtime between using alloca() and malloc() ... don't ask. Those were different times.

> our long term strategy needs to be adaptation and cooperation, not to engineer the climate to stay as it was in 1700 and selfishly laying claim to temporarily blessed locations.

Honest question, why? If we can, why shouldn’t we?

Also, cooperation with what? These are all complex systems with feedback loops which we have been impacting for centuries. There is nothing to cooperate with. The question remains: how well do we understand them and what can we do?

SF is still a desirable place to live. That doesn't mean residents are willing to make it undesirable by changing the character of the city and make it unlivable. Building housing is like building roads: it doesn't fix the problem. The problem simply expands to fill available supply. People reproduce to fill all available housing, and prices stay sky high again, only now the city is shittier. Habitat control is the only option to preserve livable cities.

Ironically as Paramount+ is unavailable where I live I'll have to pirate this documentary.

Streaming music services are not perfect but at least for the most part I can move service and not lose access to the bands I enjoy listening to, whereas for video media the content is unique to the service. With the massive differences between music & video content financing & production costs, I wonder if there will ever be a consolidation to common video streaming services. E.g. you watch on Netflix or Paramount and the production company gets paid regardless.

I don't know about the US but in most of France and Belgium they are everywhere, they grow like weeds, including on badly maintained brickwork, they seem to be especially suited to urban areas.

All these other plants you mentioned do attract pollinators but they don't propagate as well, they are only where they have been planted at least around here. Even on the warmer Atlantic coast, rosemary and lavender grow well but they don't propagate nearly as much by themselves as butterfly bush (Buddleja) does.
Russia is in fact loosing more than 1000 people per day. It has for many months.

https://www.newsweek.com/russia-highest-monthly-losses-ukrai...

They also loose equipment at a staggering rate. From the start of the invasion 2022 until end of July, they have lost more than 570 000 soldiers, 8000 tanks and 16000 artillery systems.

Oh and also 38 war ships and one submarine - against a country that didn't have a navy at the start of the invasion. Drones is ammunition and is used in air, land and sea.

I think this is where I'm coming from as well. When I got to university, I met tons of people who were just connected to the right resources, be they textbooks, summer camps, math tutors, or college counselors. My lucky break was a smart father and learning about AoPS in 4th grade, but I still wish I knew what else was out there.

It'd be great if people didn't need to get lucky to learn this stuff. There is a whole group of people paid to set standards and make people aware of what is out there. The standards filter down from the board of education to the teachers, and the teachers don't actually have much sway in what they teach (re: r/teachers). So, my ultimate goal for imposing my definition of "high school math" on everyone else is to make it common enough that the standards reflect that, rather than a slow trend of weakening standards that has happened in the past few decades[*].

But... now that I type this all out, it seems pretty far removed, and probably does more harm than good (except in my bubble). It'd be much more effective to send a few emails or get myself elected to one of these seats.

[*]: Note, standards have obviously risen since the early 1900s, but they've actually fallen in the last twenty years.

I'm replying more to the "I fucking love this timeline." part of the comment.

Half the time I see something advertised here (or anywhere else for that matter) the code is more tracking than content by weight, nothing works, and the whole thing is shockingly slow.

How did we get to "this timeline" that not only is this normal, but it's starting to feel weird even commenting about it?

Should I just give up and accept loading spinners on static content?

My recent grumpy old man moment is asynchronous loading of menu items one-at-a-time, something my PC from 1994 could do instantaneously. I've seen desktop applications show me fragments of a UI, slowly expanding with more and more items in random order as the fans of my 5 GHz CPU spin up to handle the enormous load of... a few hundred characters of text per second. The same speed as my first 300 baud modem, something so old and slow that I threw it the trash in 1989.

There's a comment here[1] saying "nice interface". What's nice about it!? It's broken, slow, and tracks you!

This is where we are in 2024: Shipping broken stuff and getting patted on the back for getting an MVP out "fast"... while users wait.

I would love the ease of not having to cook, buy food, to eat healthily
I don't feel tied to train schedules when they go between cities every 15 minutes and between countries every two hours or so. That's the situation near me currently and that's sufficient to not look at a schedule for short trips but just show up, and for the holiday-distanced trips you need to plan it anyway and leaving an hour later is not going to make any difference
yes, truss has been based on / implemented in terms of dtrace since Solaris 10.

(dtrace userland is a library; you can, if you so choose, write your own tooling there. The command is "just a wrapper", a lot of similarities to bpftrace on Linux)
That's a fair point. The thing I'd be more thinking about is: can I get a list of currencies? I get I have type safety, but if I want to present the user with a list of valid currencies, can I do that from the type system? Enums can make that sort of thing very straightforward.

Was it an Indian or Chinese style dish?

In India, chili chicken (probably spelled chilli chicken) is an Indianised-Chinese dry starter or appetizer kind of dish, of small pieces of chicken stir-fried with a tangy dry coating / sauce that includes ginger, garlic and red chillies. You can get vegetarian versions too, like paneer chilli. That coating / sauce is really good. It has tiny solid bits and pieces of ginger and garlic which adds to the taste.

You get it in (Indian) Chinese or multi-cuisine restaurants.
Good for him, seems like OpenAI is moving towards a business model of profitability, and Anthropic seems to be more aligned with the original goals of OpenAI.

Will be interesting to see what happens in the next few years. It strikes me that OpenAI is better funded, though, and that AI (at their scale) is super expensive. How does Anthropic deal with this? How are they funding their operations?

This is very vague. Is this a library you add in the codebase?

https://godview.app/features/rest-api says "Create and modify objects, send data and connect your sources using the powerful RESTful API.". Meaningless
Having used raster MBTiles a lot for offline mapping, I would truly love a generic process that could take vector MBTiles, and then create a fully rendered raster tile from that data with the given stylesheet. If anyone knows of such a cross platform library, I would really like to hear about it. I know of a few projects, but they always have very platform specific code. My use case is multiple platforms, but using the same mapping engine. Something like Skia for rendering and handing back a Skia Canvas/Image with the rendered tile would work very well. We still need "tiles" in other words, but the source would be generated on the fly and cached to reduce overhead,

Raster tiles get huge at level 12 onwards. For generic usage it is hard to take the entire planet and make it available in a way where any user can use the same file at any zoom level in any location. For me, vector would solve this in a much better way, as we have a lot more control over which features to include and what level of detail to have in specific areas to reduce the overall size of the data.
fly-by-fiber used to be very popular. And still is. The systems Russia is getting from North Korea is fly-by-fiber. Though I agree that autonomous drones is probably where we are heading. Ukraina has already shown swarms of autonomous drones working together.

You even have different types of drones providing different function. A mama drone carrying smaller drones to the place of operation for example.
