I missed that the UK extended that law, thanks for the link.

I still see a lot of fray area there left up to a judge's interpretation after the fact.

> 1. send a message;
> 2. conveying information that they know to be false;
> 3. at the time of sending it they intend the message to cause non-trivial psychological or physical harm to a likely audience (i.e. someone who is likely to read it, whether originally or after someone has shared it); and
> 4. they have no reasonable excuse for sending the message

(1) seems totally fine, no gray area there. The last three points are all only known by the person being charged with the crime. It is extremely difficult to prove intent , or what the person knew at the moment of sending a message.

Short of the person confessing, prosecutors would be left with having to find evidence that proves beyond a reasonable doubt what the person knew at the time and the intent behind a message. My argument there is that realistically this will lead to either no convictions or convictions based on circumstantial evidence and a judge's opinion of what the person knew and intended.

The qualifications listed for threats have similar gray area, I won't copy them here for brevity.

To the citizen, this means anything they say related to a topic protected by these laws may be legal or illegal, they will never know unless a judge is asked to decide. Two reasonable judges could interpret a person's message and intent differently, meaning that the law is too unclear to be enforced fairly on the public.
Don't disagree with you, but, so far, the US is the only country to land people on the moon - and they first pulled that feat off 55 years ago!

Of course, it's not clear whether they could pull that feat off right now, today, but they did pull it off and nobody else has. Suddenly nobody remembered the Soviet accomplishments of first satellite in space, first man in space and so forth. All they remember and care about is first man to the moon.

After all, America does a great job of marketing herself! :)

Also it relate to executives who make quick decisions as being the ones who make their way up the ladder faster as it is deemed to be better to make quick decisions (as long as it doesn't completely blow up or you have someone else you can pin it on).

I've also seen businesses fall behind because they were chasing the latest tech fads even though those did nothing for their business.
Because they're neither men nor women. I bet there are physically disabled people who want to compete in no handicap competitions not deemed by the ableist term "special" yet they are forced into that and worse have to accept the obvious that it isn't possible.

Sadly, we live in a cruel and unfair world and coming to acceptance of that is called growing up.

Here's a success story of a non-digital project: https://transportationops.org/case-studies/i-85-bridge-colla...

The reason it was successful is because the right incentives were in place for the people doing the work. Digital or not, the fundamentals are the same.

The public sector, in particular governments, have a long history of creating bad incentives or misaligning the incentives. The root causes of this are severalfold.

Yes, and the frustration is on dealing with all the boxes and unboxing, at the exact correct place, and that won't unify with each other.

There's a sibling comment about porting it to C#. The Rust version will be less frustrating than the C#, but it is the same kind of bad.

There are other forms of punishment besides jail time. But really I'm more concerned that the scam organization is shut down, even if the main scammer isn't put behind bars. If nothing else, it'll slow down and reduce the scams.
How exactly are you going to prove fraud without, you know, the clinical trial data that you've just allowed them not to produce in the first place?

Fraud is one risk -- the much bigger one is well-intentioned people trying to save lives seeing positive outcomes where there aren't any.
Now you have 3 different states that all represent an error:

(null, new DivideByZeroException())
(null, null)
(result, new DivideByZeroException())

One of which does not actually use our custom error type, and one of which contains a value for some reason. Our function is simple division! Are there really 3 different ways division can fail?

This isn't a showstopper, it's just more stuff you have to keep in your head.
Of course I did. If you also did, you would know that they do in fact have 64 megabyte PSRAMs as I stated. So a helpful comment would have been "they're not compatible, though". Your reply as it stands just makes it sound like you maybe assumed that I don't know the difference between megabits and megabytes.
Fully agree. I live with cronic pain and people ask me if I'm in pain, I say yes, then they want to stop whatever we're doing and I say no, if I stop living because of this, I have nothing else left but the pain. So yeah, you get used to doing things with it. Some days it's impossible and I indeed do nothing but most days, meh.. Screw it, I have stuff I actually want to do.
Nobody will probably read this anymore but I had the same problem and used the same solution - starting my browsers as
$ google-chrome --profile-directory=customera (nice dark theme, custom list of extensions and corporate bookmarks)
$ google-chrome --profile-directory=customerb (yeallow-blue theme to stand out)

and a session for my own stuff / firefox with --profile with custom proxy settings to tunnel via a socks around customers corp mitm proxy

That being said, I spent my free computer time working on a server runtime(nodejs) + extension kombo (big thanks to talented folks helping with this project!) which can sync your tabs based on the context you are in - lets say /work/customer-foo/dev/task1234 would index all your tabs for task 1234, but that path is actually linked to bitmap indexes, /work/customer-foo would show you all links for customer foo, if you'd create /work/dev it would show you all tabs that are indexes for work AND dev

There is a totally nonalcoholic kava bar where I live.

Kava is a nonintoxicating plant with alkaloids that improve mood and enhance sociability.

The kava bar a fantastic place to sit by yourself and easily fall into a conversation with other people at the bar or the kava-tender.

I do think kava is illegal in some countries, which is unfortunate, and being that it grows on pacific islands, it's probably rather hard to import for most places. But a wonderful plant and wonderful concept.
Does it make sense to buy Nvidia GPUs as a linux user in 2024 anyway? I thought Nvidia has abysmal linux support, if you don't have Nvidia GPU what's the point of LibreCUDA?
I agree 100%. Unfortunately my company is pretty tied to windows and windows server, which is a pain. Upgrading and sysadmin-type work is still very manual and there's a lot of room for human error.

I wish we would use something like Debian and take advantage of tech like systemd. But alas, we're still using COM and Windows Services and we still need to remote desktop in and click around on random GUIs to get stuff to work.

Luckily, SQL Server itself is very stable and reliable. But even SQL Server runs on Linux.
I actually own a studio that does just this.

I think that for a lot of businesses, they can hire internal developers prematurely before they have a clear vision of the product that they're building or need.

We structured our studio as a group of (very) senior talent, most with over a decade of experience each across Product Design, Software Engineering, and Product Management, where thee entirety of our studio is available on each project.

We focus on documentation, developer experience, and working with companies to get the initial product in a state of both product management and cleanliness to ensure that they're reading to onboard specific team members internally to carry the product forward.

It can be very cost prohibitive to create a new product without having designers, developers, product owners, all that are dedicated to your vision. A developer may miss key user experience interactions, making it difficult to use. A designer may forgot key features from a business perspective. Having access to all of the talent for a new product is hard.

As others have said here, I recommend finding very talented and experienced SENIOR Engineers. If you are intent on them being an internal team, ensure they have excellent project management skills and have built their own side project from scratch, so they know what it takes to build a full product from the ground up.

An engineer that builds their own products has experience that is invaluable when it comes to building functional tools that people want to use.

I think it's plausible. I believe a lot of traffic would disappear if people drove the same speed. I do a lot of highway driving and use cruise control, and I see lots of cars go faster, then slow down, then go faster, then slow down, etc, causing more lane changes and probably annoying other drivers. Lane changes takes up two spaces and causes others to slow down creating a domino effect.

Traffic is one of those things where if everyone else looked out for each other, waited their turn, let people merge, etc, then everyone would get to their destinations sooner.
I feel like if you get 30% of a deal you should be a valid target in a lawsuit about that deal. Scam app steals your bitcoin? Apple is on the hook if they want to get the middle of it like that. They can sue their business partner to recover.

Something smaller, like under 5%, close to the cost of providing the service, would be more like a "finders fee" on the other hand shouldn't have such a duty.

I came to the realization a bit ago that musical stardom is essentially a finishing school for a personal brand. Most of the extremely successful artists seem to use their career as a springboard to some other venture; your time touring and putting out albums is more about networking and showing that you're dynamic, poised, attractive, etc. Basically, that you're qualified to be the "face" of something else. If you don't seize that once-in-a-lifetime marketing opportunity... Well, it's once-in-a-lifetime. You should essentially have some plan ready to go the moment you realize your name is on everyone's lips. Fashion partnership, acting gig, merchandising deal, something.

Apple suggestion: After two to three weeks, offer a checkbox to 'always allow'. This gives time to either accept that it's running and going to be monitoring, or remove it if it's malware.

This would be similar to another case: how Apple handles registering devices manually into an Apple Business Manager account for their MDM Device Enrollment Program. "If the device is given to a user, they have a 30-day provisional period to release the device from Apple Business Manager, supervision, and MDM."

> I want LSD transformed into a transit corridor

How is this not already true? There are scores of Lake Shore Express buses every day on routes like the 134, 135, 136, 143, 146 and 147. The Lakefront Trail has a well-maintained, grade-separated bike path that runs the entire length, alongside a running path the same (and at place the bikes and runners are also grade-separated).

LSD is in need of many improvements, especially car-related ones, but to claim that it is not a transit corridor strikes me as disingenuous. It is more a "transit corridor" than perhaps anywhere else in the city
futo.org has FOSS voice input android app (voiceinput.futo.org) and live captions (https://github.com/abb128/LiveCaptions) for Linux. They specifically developed their own model that does fast real time transcriptions.

Those two languages are popular because they bring some of the benefit of languages like Haskell into an environment that is compatible with an outdated but widely used OOP language.

Haskell will bring you more of the benefits from FP with expressive types; Idris will bring you even more. But you will lose the integration.
PCIe doesn't matter - these accelerators talk to one another, and Gaudi is outstanding in this regard. HBM2e also doesn't matter if you run decent sized batches (which you should, for throughput). In fact, HBM2e, being far less supply constrained, might even be an advantage.

This might even be true but that just means you aren’t the target market. Nobody is stopping you from running a full open source stack but I don’t think it should come as a surprise that 99% of the people using computers pick something easier and safer to use when it’s not your job or hobby. My Linux desktop experience goes back to 1994 and while it’s a lot better now I still have zero trouble understanding that trade off.

> I installed GNU/Linux for my relatives, and they never did that in years.

Again, think mainstream. Where that’s happened historically was most server-side stuff because Linux has much greater share there, but most of the business compromising users is focused on Windows, Android, iOS, and maybe macOS because that’s where almost all of the people they’ll make money from are. If desktop Linux became more popular, attackers would spend time on it and would have comparable success rates – likely even higher due to how far behind the Linux world is compared to macOS on sandboxing and code signing. Free software is a great thing but it doesn’t have magic pixie dust obviating the need to spend time on security like everyone else.
Yeah, that is another issue with the way the media frames things and commonly invokes "100 year flood". In my comment, "on average" is doing a lot of work for those not decently versed in probability.

I agree with your general thoughts. I've been designing+developing+managing ERP/SupplyChain/WMS/Shipping systems+projects for a loooong time and the chance that a person with no background in it will build the right small team to pull this off correctly on the budget any small to medium size company has, while running their business, is generally low.

> You might get around the drudge work of automating some of the toil work by hiring freelancers/consultants.

Finding the right people with the right experience and right aptitude is tough (for any role). Whether internal or external resources, my rule of thumb is that maybe 20% are fully capable, 50% are reasonably valuable to some degree, 20% have limited value and 10% are just not in the right role at all.

Whether trying to find a PM or solution architect or technical lead or dev, these same percentages apply. You have to really have experience to have a reasonable shot at finding that 20% person for your most critical position, the technical lead (whatever you call them in your org or project).

If you look at all of the talent out there today, you will see a zillion candidates with extensive experience moving workloads onto the cloud etc. etc., which is a good and valuable set of skills. But those skills and similar tech skills are not what you need to build your core systems.

You need people with the following:

1-Domain experience (you don't want people that have been designing+building streaming video systems their entire career)

2-Experience extracting business requirements, and organizing and managing that information. This is an art that takes a long time to acquire.

The business will tell you they need an alert when inventory is too low, but the real question is why is the inventory low? You need to follow the chain back to the planning system where they are excluding transactions they should not be excluding.

3-Experience creating solutions (functional and technical) that meet the business requirements and other domain requirements not explicitly stated by the business as well as a reasonably pragmatic design that accounts for the various gotchas that a good designer will account for (otherwise you will play a painful game of whack a mole of small/medium issues for years and years never realizing it's because the design was not good enough)

At least as things stand now, these signals are only used when absolutely necessary, and no real work is done on them directly. Transmitting many bits in parallel was the original way of doing this, and would still be preferred if feasible, but timing issues arise at modern speeds over long distances (10s of cm). So the signals on one board, which are still binary and parallel, are multiplexed into a multi-level serial signal before transmission, transmitted over the serial data lines, and then received and demultiplexed on the other board from multi-level serial back into binary parallel signals. All computation (logic and arithmetic) operates on the binary signals, not the multi-level signals.
