How is this different from vcluster? In fact vcluster has no dependency on Istio which I think is a huge detriment to kardinal.
We use cilium so the istio requirement becomes a non starter for us.

Amy Hoy has a few products that cover launches. Launches are part of a holistic business strategy based on direct marketing concepts. So marketing starts even before product development. You collect marketing materials at the same time you research/build your product (ensures you don't build something no one wants to buy.)

This is a very opinionated way to do marketing that is different from "traditional marketing." I feel it is the most effective, but it also requires more work (mainly research to truly understand the customer).

I would describe the strategy as "precision-marketing." When most people think of "marketing," they think of the more common "brute-force nuclear marketing." (Brute force marketing is fine for products like Coca-Cola: people already know what Coke is, so they just need to be reminded it tastes good.)

- https://30x500.com (They "launch" a new class every few months, but if you email them they let you sign up.)

There are many other good sources on "precision-marketing," but I think Amy Hoy is the most tech-adjacent.

Excerpt from https://stackingthebricks.com/just-fucking-ship:

Here’s how I (almost) always launch:

1. 2-3 blog posts 2-4 weeks before, to build up my list
2. and 3-5 emails starting 2 weeks or so before, to build
anticipation, each one leading to the other
3. announcing the launch date & time 2-3 days ahead
4. reminding the list about the launch a few hours ahead…
5. emailing once more when the lanuch begins

Apparently the author is fresh out of B.Sc. She may not have much practice with writing pieces like this.

(Daniela is a recent B.Sc. graduate from the program of Physiology at McGill. She is very passionate about understanding the human body and how we can all individually adapt our daily lifestyles to improve its functioning.

Part of the OSS mandate is to foster science communication and critical thinking in our students and the public. We hope you enjoy these pieces from our Student Contributors and welcome any feedback you may have!)

Another, more disturbing, possibility is that she could be right to include it for some of today's lay audience. I am seeing staggering levels of ignorance about chemistry in media here. Latest example being a radio anchor who had obviously never encountered the word cadmium in her life and made a very awkward (and failed) attempt to sound her way through it.

In the US, I had a family member's address change zip codes (approx similar to larger area postal codes) and associated city.

It took a surprising amount of time to cascade through systems, as in years.

I think we're at +8 years now, and Google Maps still has the old zip and city. Which means many websites do too.
I hope this happens. I can only dream of the day when my country gets something like this.
AFAIKR you don't need CORS for framing, or making cross origin GET or POST. You only need it to read the response of a cross origin request and setting certain request header and body etc.

For example you can make a cross origin GET with an img tag, and a cross-origin POST with a form tag and some JavaScript.
Insurance is always up to a certain amount. In the Netherlands the government-provided insurance insures up to €100k per account holder.

People would have a problem if they already have €120k tied up in a contract, such as a house purchase.

It would be a big problem if the lost money was intended for their pension.
The entire way those platforms work is literally that. Ironically TV didn't dictate how to engage with content because there was not much. Compared to comment sections algorithmically boosting trolls to make you compulsively comment
> Because the bank was insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the FDIC "absorbed the $47.1 million loss"

> Right now, it's unclear how or when victims will be repaid for losses. Broomes ordered "that restitution be finalized at a separate hearing within the next 90 days," the US Attorney's Office said. Many victims will never fully recoup losses to their life savings and retirement funds

Can someone explain how are these two statements compatible?

> sometime a single building

Fun fact- some postcodes cover only a fraction of a building. There’s buildings where 3 postcodes are used. Same street number, same main entrance, but different post codes.

Edit: A 2-postcode building example is “M3 7GW” and “M3 7GX”, both go to 55 Queen St, Salford.
Yes, it is the wrong word to use. Personal data aggregation (with storage in a personal data vault) would be better.
Do we care about "real" reality if we can, more or less, make sense of some of its manifestations through our senses?

That there is something deeper and unknowable and "informationally huge" seems obvious. We didn't bring quarks or quasars into existence, we "discovered" them as and when we extended our senses far enough using technologies (which are themselves a result of us becoming comfortable enough with our immediate reality, as a sort of positive feedback loop).

There is every reason to suspect that this deeper reality does not stop where our technologically extended abilities peter out. Our imperfect and tentative understanding when reaching the extremes of scales (of time, space, complexity, etc) is perfectly understandable. Why should a finite carbon brain be able to map out a coherent and finite model of something much, much bigger than itself.

On the other hand over millennia of brainstorming (literally) we have collected some interesting datapoints about this deeper reality: it is not "malicious", and somehow it agrees to be mapped by us (mathematically), even if in disconnected parts.

In fact this benevolent aspect of deeper reality has made us unusually cocky. Imagine the existential angst if the universe changed its laws at whim. We'd be back to praying. E.g., that gravity remains stable for a while so that we don't drift into space. This premature self-assuredness explains repeated scientific episodes of proclaiming "we have explained everything". This also feeds the sterile chase of "a theory of everything".

In fact the limits of our understanding are in front of our eyes, everywhere. We haven't really explained a single phenomenon in the so called "complexity science" domain. Deeper reality is all around us and the most dramatic and impactful scientific revolutions are still ahead of us.
I am an American and have lived most of my life in the US, but I have lived overseas for the last 12 years.

My experience is that Americans are very insular and do not know much about other countries because American-owned new media focuses on US stories, most major social media sites are American-owned and overwhelmingly populated with other Americans, etc.

Americans are insulated simply because the information sectors they have access to are dominated by American businesses. Hell, even the Internet itself is American. (This is the same reason that non-American countries are also overwhelmed by American issues/news/culture.)

It is not because Americans think they are superior, and it does not cause Americans to think they are superior. Degree of insulation and sense of superiority are independent variables, and Americans (especially middle-aged and younger) are actually quite low on the sense-of-superiority scale — certainly way, way lower than most Europeans in my experience. (This is not intended as a slight against Europeans; you have very good reasons to prefer Europe to the US.)

Every American I know has serious complaints about the US and is acutely aware that other countries leave the US in the dust in several of areas, including (though certainly not limited to) healthcare. There are of course some nationalist extremists out there who will argue otherwise, and they can be especially noisy on the internet because that is the nature of extremists, but these are not the average people you meet walking down an American street.

Most Americans may not know the ins and outs of other countries' healthcare systems, and therefore may not speak in any detail about those systems on American media sites like this one, but that isn't because they think theirs is the best. They may not ponder the ways that Estonia or Germany has the better healthcare system, but that's because they would be over the moon for anything half as good as either of them.

The USA's political flaws unfortunately run very deep and are in no way the fault of the modern American people. The US Constitution is a very old, very hard-to-change document that was designed primarily to make the US government as stable as possible — at the cost of responsiveness to democratic will.

Basically all of the genuine democracies (I am not talking about dictatorships that larp as democracies) created after American democracy were designed to correct the flaws of the US Constitution: the first-past-the-post voting system, the extreme difficulty of adding amendments, etc. That's why they have nice things.
Thanks for the clarification. I’d forgotten that ernestmarples only offered postcode-to-location lookup: it was a long time ago.

I suppose this is encouraging! It shows that the forces of openness are gaining ground in this battle.

I offer both in https://kidzfun.art. If you're non-technical, you can buy packs of 100 images and it uses my key to access Dall-E, or you can provide your own key and pay nothing to me. The vast majority of users go the simpler way, but it's a nice bonus for technical users to just reuse their own key. The difference with your approach is that I store an encrypted copy server side as I do all the AI generation on the server.
I promise you there are better ways to manipulate people in this situation. Like a keylogger. That way, your hypothetical LGBTQ child can't evade your monitoring by using an incogneto tab or simply pausing recall when they login.

not even close. not going to beat this to a pulp but just to give you an idea, this does not scale well, not at all. are you going to look through 25 gb of photos? what if it's 90% cat pictures.
Probably, but not necessarily.

The article points out that the PAF is kept up to date by virtue of thousands of postmen and postwomen physically visiting the rows in the database on a daily basis, as part of normal business, and logging updates. That level of routine maintenance is what any non-PostOffice PAF alternative would have to also do.

Amazon, and probably Google Maps, are two of the very small number of organisations which _might_ have the resources to build this postcode->GPS mapping, as a sideline to their current business.

They probably do license the PAF, of course, but they illustrate the sort of scale required to assemble that data independently.
The FDIC insures deposit accounts (savings, checking, money market deposit accounts, and certificates of deposit) only and there’s a cap of $250K at any single institution. I’ve no idea what accounts this bank offered, but anything in excess of that cap or held in, for example, mutual funds, stocks, etc are uninsured losses. Those people the article mentioned specifically called out retirement savings, so they very well may not have been in insured deposit accounts.

Given the age of your account my guess is that you're still young with too strong opinions and too little experience. That's ok, we all start there. But I can tell you from experience, that you'll need to outgrow that mindset in order to grow intellectually.

The difference between mutability and immutability is not as clear cut as you think, and might just be the difference between a `& mut` and a `&`.
"Surfer: The World's First Digital Footprint Exporter" is dubious—it's clearly not the first. Kicking off with such a bold claim while only supporting seven major platforms? A scraper like this is only valuable if it has hundreds of integrations; the more niche, the better. The idea is great, but this needs a lot more time in the oven.

I would prefer a cli tool with partial gather support. Something that I could easily setup to run on a cheap instance somewhere and have it scrape all my data continuously at set intervals, and then give me the data in the most readable format possible through an easy access path. I've been thinking of making something like that, but with https://github.com/microsoft/graphrag at the center of it. A continuously rebuilt GraphRAG of all your data.
To have a unique id for each house is neat but I think there are loads of situations you’d have to account for so that there isn’t any ambiguity in the assignment of unique ids. If any ambiguities exist inevitably you will have exceptions in the system which defeats the point.
For example
-Subdivision of a lot.
-Joining of lots.
-You said every house… what about two houses on the same lot?
-What about apartments buildings?
-What happens when one or more houses are demolished and an apartment building goes up?
Etc etc

I work in manufacturing and this sounds a lot like the problem of part numbering, and let me tell you, it’s not a trivial problem and the company I work for thought it was and got it wrong.

Interesting. Just a few weeks back, I was reading about their previous work https://atscaleconference.com/the-evolution-of-aiops-at-meta... -- didn't realise there's more work!

In Finland in similar case, each stair well has own letter and each apartment has different number. So those are used always with the street house number.

Though the later case is bit messy with cross roads. As building can have two different addresses. Or same complex of multiple building have two different addresses for each building. With in my case one having A-C and other D-F stairwells... Oh, and numbers also are not restarted at least sometimes.
Considering Zed introduced AI and it's so much faster than Cursor or VSCode, I think the competition will be much harder than they sold to the investors.

Cursor had the vector indexing going on but it doesn't work very well in my experience. Oftentimes it doesn't find stuff and I have to manually search anyway.
Cursor is still pretty good as an editor, I've been using it for a while and even the free plan is pretty good value. LLMs are still pretty bad at coding (Claude, GPT, it doesn't matter) so even cursor-small is almost always enough for the kind of task you would offload to a LLM.

Zed's approach of building the context manually with files and text and then asking for stuff is way more direct and less "magic". It works consistently.
The US also has 9-digit postcodes which usually map to a single building or smaller: aren't they public too?

For an app that converts text to speech, what would you prefer?
If you would use an app that converts text to speech, would you rather prefer:

A) Good voice quality
B) Robotic voice, but additional features, such as text highlight following audio or synchronized audio timestamps

I have an app that basically converts academic papers to audio using gpt to explain the complicated parts so you can understand them by just listening to the audio. I'm trying to add additional features to my app's listening experience, like highlighting text that follows the audio and so on. But my current tts api sucks (openAi api). It doesn't have word or phrase timestamps, so any synchronization is impossible.

I've been doing research for better tts solutions, but I'm kinda lost: Groq has no options yet, ElevenLabs is too damn expensive, and I already pay a lot of money for gpt explanations, I can't double my costs for tts conversion. Unrealspeech requires a monthly subscription, and because I'm not generating any revenue, 50$/month is not a viable option either. Amazon Polly has the options and the correct price, but the voice is AWFUL. Literal 70 r2d2 robotic voice.

What would you do in this situation?
I have just written an essay about the word water in the sibling post comments.

That sounds incredibly frustrating! It's disappointing when the versions of songs you love are swapped out without your consent, especially when the new versions don't hold up to the originals. Unfortunately, this seems to happen more often with streaming services as artists re-record their music. If you haven't already, it might be worth checking the settings to see if there's an option to prefer original versions or maybe even switch to a service that respects your library choices more. Hopefully, you can get those classic versions back!

Calling it "bad luck" is unfair. leaders don't become leaders out of the blue or without at least a portion of the society's support. Freedom has its price. The French paid the price as they rebelled against the aristocracy, so did the Americans as they fought the British, just as many other peoples did all over the world. The Russians are still very contend to outsource all things political to their masters, a nation of slaves. Even now it's the Ukrainians that are paying the price for freedom, their own and eventually that of Russians. By no means it is an easy thing to do, but now more than ever you do have some options if you carry an ak47, drive a t-72 or pilot a ka-52 or an fpv drone. It really is up to you to decide who do you aim your gun at - your peaceful neighbours or your tyrannical masters.
Awesome, thanks. I guess one just needs benchmarks of the sensitivity of various compatible hardware solutions.
FDIC ensures certain deposits, within limits. If the bank fails, which is my superficial understanding here, FDIC will make you whole if you had a secured deposit within those limits, although not instantly, but it doesn't cover deposits either beyond those limits or which were never guaranteed. A typical high street bank account is always covered, but maybe you've put the $1.5M Grandma left you in there, that's too much, or maybe instead of the normal bank account you obtained some weird investment vehicle that's not technically a bank account but, you know, it's from a bank - well, the paperwork did say "Not FDIC insured" and sure enough it isn't FDIC insured so if the bank fails too bad.

In most bank failures a large fraction of the money is eventually recovered but it takes ages. Maybe you had $1M with a bank, the bank fails on Monday, $250k is FDIC insured, on Monday you can't get your money, this can be very disruptive. Can't make car payment, can't pay tuition, whatever. But hey by first thing Wednesday FDIC gives you access to $250k.

Six months later the people cleaning up the mess maybe give you $607 283 from selling the bulk of the bank's assets, and then six years later, when you've almost forgotten this disaster, you get a letter with a further $114 384.10 as the last bits and pieces were settled, and it turns out one of the hard to unwind bank investments was actually quite profitable, although it was supposed to pay much earlier. Congratulations, the vast majority of your money was "recovered". Not all of it, and not quickly, but bank failures generally do not mean there's an empty vault.
