You don't even need to set up a local IP, you'll get an IPv6 address for free. Combined with Avahi/Bonjour/mDNS (preinstalled on most computers these days), accessing devices through `hostname.local` should just work out of the box.

The only challenge I can think of is "what is the other computer's hostname" and configuring the firewall to treat the TB link as a trusted network.

Interesting to contrast this with the attitude many photographers have to Topaz Labs. That thing makes out of whole cloth 90% of image data, and the model doing it is trained on who knows what, yet the result is "I sharpened my photos in post using topaz".

Similar with using gen AI inpainting for object removal. It's all "post" for many photographers.

Yet for artists using gen ai for background, detailing or something similar is a dark side.
> Not exactly a single point of failure.

It is a safe-life part, so yes, it is a single point of failure part for that engine. And, if something fails unexpectedly, it could significantly damage the wing too, as has happened in the past with deadly consequences.

The problem being encountered on two other test planes, makes it a lot more problematic, as the probability of the second engine shearing off then becomes a lot, lot higher.
Corporations are legal fictions. The large owners of megacorporations are the problem, along with corporate personhood.
These people are so sure they occupy the moral high ground, but they do not. If the trend continues it will be possible for anyone to materialize their artistic vision with great fidelity. I’m sure there are countless people who would have contributed culturally significant works in the past but for a lack of time or money or peculiar talents requisite for the physical production of such works.

At the core of most objections to generative art is some combination of mercantile fear, distress at sunk costs, or the loss of one’s specialness. While all are understandable, a righteous person would weigh their own loss against society’s gain, and finding the balance so lopsidedly in favor of society, make of themselves a sacrifice.

Yes, which is also what Milton Friedman said. I am not sure anyone notable in capitalistic thought actually professed full unbridled capitalism.

That sums up the arguments as:

1. Iterable weakmaps would be very usable to - among other things - foreign runtimes in JavaScript

2. People who don't know what they are doing can do dumb things with weak references.

Both are of course valid, but in this case I do think that linters telling people that they have to know what they are doing are the better option.
It's an interesting layout. I found that it helps me keep track of what line I'm on, resulting in fewer skipped or repeated lines.
I only skimmed this, have not yet read in great detail, but it made me think about backlists in indie publishing.

This is a thing for self-published authors as well, only we tend to take a more optimistic view on the backlist: a large backlist is more of a benefit than a challenge. It is necessary to keep putting out new books of course to get new visibility, but income stability comes not from readers buying your shiny new book - it comes from them buying _all of your other books_ after they read and enjoy the shiny new book. The backlist is generally considered king for a sustainable self-publishing career.

It does come with maintenance, however. As the post mentions, my early books are just not very good. Heck my new books are not very good either, but they're better than my early books. Likewise, covers and blurbs go out of date and need to be refreshed once in a while. It is work - but a large backlist is in the end what keeps you afloat.
For general networking, sure Ethernet is a better solution, but I also don't imagine you're going to get 18Gbit/s+ from regular desktop/laptops over ethernet, regardless of how much gold plating it has.
The docker-compose.yaml file is where you specify the ports you want to expose. It looks like by default it's 5000:5000 (5000 outside and inside the container). You will need to change it and then run docker-compose up -d.

You can change it to something like 5133:5000 and access the instance through localhost:5133
You cannot redefine words because they don't fit with your personal definition. Open source has meant in accordance with the OSI, for quite a while.
I hit some sound issues in the Linux version, for anyone else with the same problem telling Steam to use Proton to run the Windows version instead is a workaround.

My only minor peeve with the sequel so far is that the logistics of moving stuff back to the central platform is pretty fiddly and time-consuming compared to the first one. I think there's an unlockable upgrade I'm nowhere near getting which might fix that though.
So I have countless vintage motherboards, many of which lack documentation. You know what I do when I can't tell what a jumper does? I get the DMM, the flashlight, and the microscope. Pre-Pentium systems are really easy to troubleshoot and reverse engineer because they're so simple. I just think the author lacks confidence, tools, resources, or curiosity.

PS: I'm working on a "braindead" 25 MHz 286 with an 287XLT custom motherboard where the chipset is implemented largely by a single FPGA.
AI support agent rickrolls customer
> fairly standard, and easy to follow--like the manual for putting together a piece of furniture.

And people still have problems following that instructions. We gave a lot of instructions, but some people just don't read them. Or can't understand and follow them. Example from this week:

Yeah, main support guy for our client is on holidays this week and only a girl from sales is available and she doesn't know why our device doesn't work, she tried resetting her phone wifi but still can't pair our zigbee smart hub connected with usb modem stick (problem: no one told her she needs to message us to actually activate sim card before installing device for end client).

Yes, you can solve this one problem, but there are many more we didn't see yet. Consumer support does not scale and you can't write tests for something you don't know will be a problem.
pgtune can generate config for 256MB server automatically, probably a good starting point: https://pgtune.leopard.in.ua/
Which novels? Did you compare them to novels created by handcrafted algorithms? I guarantee you, what you have read wasn't bad, it was fantastically good, compared to anything a software could have come up with without machine learning. So it seems likely that traditional procedural level generation could also be far outperformed by AI systems.
Kinda weird because they have already relicensed the entire repo recently. I wonder what problem they are trying to solve with a private repo.

If I had not learned about PDA(Pathological Demand Avoidance) and that I appear to be suffering from milder version of it, I would have no idea how strong the drive for autonomy can be. And in moderation, it's very healthy part of human character. You should value it. You really don't want to readily subject yourself to all the demands both from outside AND inside. Just because they sound reasonable. Anything can be made to sound reasonable.
I really don't want connected cars. It introduces way too much remote attack surface where there was zero before.

The first example of a good refactor is a meh refactor at best, and possibly a bad refactor. Array methods such as map or filter are not "more conventional" in javascript; they are "as conventional" as for-loops, and arguably less "conventional", given how for-loops have been around since the introduction of the language. They are also inevitably more expensive than for-loops (every cycle creates an anonymous function; a map followed by a filter means another iteration of the array). The original example was fine; there was no need to "refactor" it.

Apparently (and not too surprisingly) it’s much more complicated than that. In Washington, police are explicitly forbidden from enforcing immigration laws (“Keep Washington Working” act) and nationally, police could perhaps arrest you for weed but the feds are apparently not allowed to spend any money prosecuting you if you didn’t break state law, according to the Rohrerbacher-Farr amendment https://scholarship.law.uc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1...
It bans having them in the first place. Not just looking at them.
As an extension writer...

Writing extensions in Lua is huge. (Same as OBS) Looks very simple and productive.

It's one of the main reasons I've stuck to Sublime... extending with Python is very easy and works everywhere.

Even if both Zed and VSCode are strong in other areas.. Rust extensions makes me cringe (a build toolchain? ugh..) VSCode's inconsistent undocumented Javascript API is a pain in the butt (paste & pray driven development).

Will be keeping an eye on this.

I really like their H618 offerings with Zero form factor and 4GB of RAM.

There is a bit of a misunderstanding here.

The minuteman missiles are solid fueled. There are no liquids and no hypergolics involved in the stages which loft it towards the enemy. Structurally it is more similar to a candle than a fuel tank. There are no spills or defueling with this system. This is a fact. In this system you won’t find a separate oxidiser/fuel. The two components are mixed together and they form a kind of rubber like cylinder with a hole in the middle. The hole is shaped appropriately so the rocket engine burns at the right rates.

There are hypergolic fuels at the very end of the rocket in the payload. They are used for deorbiting and to control the return vehicles. But it is a much smaller part of the whole missile. (Both by mass, and by encapsulated energy.)
> In my experience, if you don't pre load the user with this garbage, and then wait for them to have an actual _need_ that depends on the feature, they're FAR more compliant with following even lengthy instructions to get it done.

Nope, they want to have it working out of the box like with any other manufacturer out there. If you enable functions only after user wants it, they will comment "this sh*t doesn't work" on your app store page. Then you have to respons to each comment with "what doesn't work, could you specify please?" and then after several days that user has enabled the functionality, but in the mean time several another gave such comments.
IP over Thunderbolt has been a thing on Macs since Mavericks, over a decade ago.
I've seen this multiple times with companies. Another example which went fully closed in an instant is ForgeRock (OpenAM, etc.). Usually it happens when management caves in to complaints from sales. Who will complain being open makes selling the product hard. In the end they will probably find out it's just the sales people's "excuse du-jour" and even after closing the source they still don't hit their targets.
LLMs are really, really bad at proofs so far in my experience. Especially proofs in proof assistant since those are machine checked and unable to be faked.
Workarounds are often forever (unless you work to make them otherwise)
You're the one that added all those conditions about exactness, about needing to replay every step (even this is a problem because steps are fractal), or not being able to change the plan. I can think imperatively and still do those :)

I also hate WD-40 as a product because it's marginally useless as a lubricant or as a penetrating oil when there are far better products for each use.
Freedom is the ability to use the open source code without any restrictions. Copyleft licences restrict the freedom. These licences sound good in theory (let's prevent from unpaid use of the code in proprietary products!), but they work not so good in practice (why bothering with legal headache related to copyleft-licensed code if it is easier to use BSD-licensed code?). This prevents from wide adoption of copyleft-licensed products.

Getting into the app's running process is an effective way to exfiltrate everything, and likely they'd have a lot more to worry about there. I don't however think that piggybacking on a live app does not give you the size of these leaks. I mean, does every user of a service access the service in these periods?

More likely they steal the app's credentials (db, cloud provider, etc) and then go to town on data at rest.

You're right on logs and things like fullstory, but no one on any team should assume things are sanitized. You do your job independently. If you're an infra, devops, sre, does it make sense to say I thought they had it handled? Was that what you marketed on your resume?

Not saying there aren't complexities involved, but in many of these cases I see a lot of low hanging fruit, likely due to moving too quickly. We really need to own up to the fact that we've grown too comfortable with not giving any thought to other people's data. Why is it that there are the PCI audits when you handle card data, but not when you handle PII? Because card fraud hits the banks and they don't want to pay for any of that. So an entire industry was spawned, it's not perfect, but it helps a lot. You do not see a lot of credit card leaks.
This article introduces a DolphinDB solution to access market streams (with Binance Exchange as an example) through both WebSocket and REST APIs. Performance test shows that this integrated approach enhances continuous data access and comprehensive coverage and improves data quality by providing more timely and frequent market updates. By implementing higher frequency data refreshes within shorter intervals, traders can achieve superior market responsiveness and make more informed decisions.
We already have safety rules, but those are ignored!

What about a pure function that can take anything that has an age as input? Well obviously that wouldn't work for a cat but it's just an example. It requires typescript and I'm not sure how to name the file it would go in, but I think it's interesting to consider this duck-typing style.

function isAdult({age}: {age: int}) {
return age >= 18
}

ps: I replaced const by function because I don't like the IDE saying I can't use something before it is defined. It's not a bug it's an early feature of javascript to be able to use a function before it is defined. Code is just easier to read when putting the caller above the callee.

This looks like a cognitive dissonance and they are addressed by revisiting your assumptions.

No flood-gates have been opened. ChatGPT definitely found uses in a few areas but the number is very far from what many people claimed. A few things are really good and people are using them successfully.

...But that's it. Absolutely nothing even resembling the beginnings of AGI is on the horizon and your assumption that the rate of progress will remain the same -- or even accelerate -- is a very classic mistake of the people who are enthusiasts in their fields.

This is not clear at all. If you know something that nobody else does, please let us know as well.
The number of negative comments here seems odd to me.

If you actually want practical and safe self driving cars widely deployed it seems obvious that instrumenting roads and making them a better platform for self-driving vehicles is an important part of this process.

To me this work seems like a part of the process of evolving roads from a Ad-Hoc and poorly documented system involving a lot of human guess work into a more robust and reliable platform for self-driving and human driven cars.
An interesting concept... load an OS from an OS image file over the network...

If that's the case, then OS'es which do not use any local storage devices, and instead mount remote filesystems over the network -- can't be far behind...

And, if that's the case, then the only thing that the local PC is doing is using its CPU and RAM to run the OS, and network port to read/write data to the filesystem...

But the local PC could also simply run a Remote Desktop or VMWare Client or VNC or equivalent to another remote computer somewhere else on the Internet -- in which case it really doesn't even need to run its own Operating System proper, it only needs to run the software which allows network connectivity to the running instance of the remote Operating System somewhere else on the Internet...

Maybe it would be simpler to build a future "computer" which is basically the glorified equivalent of a long-distance KVM switch over the Internet with local video output...

Hey, such a device would never need its own hardware upgrades... just upgrade whatever remote machine it connects to on the other end, and you've effectively upgraded the local one...

Anyway, an interesting concept!

Regarding openings, there's a trade-off between chess training and chess results. Rote memorization can improve your results (if you already have good skills), but it won't improve your skills.

Learning endgames is not about blindly memorizing moves in specific positions. You learn tricks that can be used in a large number of positions. Even the seemingly very specific positions can be mirrored left-right (not to mention black-white).
