to be clear, my question about debian is not about whether i can install dotnet-core in debian; it's about why it isn't in debian's repositories rather than microsoft's. microsoft, to understate the case somewhat, doesn't provide the stringent protections for users that debian does

debian doesn't require packages to work on all of its architectures. luajit, for example, has not been ported to riscv64, mips64el, or ppc64el https://packages.debian.org/sid/luajit, though lua5.1 is https://packages.debian.org/sid/lua5.1. what the debian policy manual says about architecture-specific packages seems to be https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.ht...:

> Specifying a specific list of architectures indicates that the source will build an architecture-dependent package only on architectures included in the list. Specifying a list of architecture wildcards indicates that the source will build an architecture-dependent package on only those architectures that match any of the specified architecture wildcards. Specifying a list of architectures or architecture wildcards other than any is for the minority of cases where a program is not portable or is not useful on some architectures. Where possible, the program should be made portable instead.

i don't think the license you link to would be a problem in itself, because it only applies to certain files which are not useful for running dotnet-core on debian anyway. debian has lots of packages from which non-free-software files have been removed. i don't know anything about diasymreader?

with respect to esp32 and ch32v003, what i meant to point to was not the risc-v architecture (some esp32s are tensilica!) but the limited memory space; jit compilation is not a good fit for 2 kibibytes of ram or even 520 kilobytes of ram
it's the same thing with fighting games. your controller has to be socd compliant

I’ve been using Triton a lot lately to make sense of heavily obfuscated code. The ability to translate a symbolic “trace” into an LLVM bitcode listing is super useful. You can do a lot of optimizations from there easily to recover the original code:

I suggest reading the posted link, it's quite informative and saves you from having to make assumptions.
I'm surprised they haven't gone down the route of TaaS (Toothbrush as a Service), where they sell a crippled device, and for a monthly fee of a few dollars, it will unlock a premium 'Ultra Fast Brush Speed' a la Tesla.
For underwater acoustic systems there is a well understood and effective marine mammal mitigation process that’s followed. Basically, slowly stepping up in power. Not sure if they’re employing that here but if it involves NATO, I would expect that’s being employed
if you want your package to be in debian, you are going to have to find a debian developer who is willing to take responsibility for maintaining it. microsoft is already providing .deb packages on their website, at least binaries
>that Wine/Proton helps make the Win32 and DirectX APIs a sort of de-facto cross-platform standard when it comes to things like desktop gaming, and that this is a good thing for them.

I'm not sure if it benefits microsoft in the long term, because the "backwards compatibility" features of Wine need to be implemented in Windows already as a part of the system. So in the long run wine/proton/mono will implement windows features on linux in an optional/replaceable/modular way in user-space while keeping backwards compatibility for older windows software, while windows is forced to implement (and distribute these features) with their OS and has to sacrifice backwards compatibility if they want to simply their OS.

I would say that the adoption of wine/proton helps the linux ecosystem a lot more because there wasn't a standard executable format for linux beforehand (static? tarball of program and dynamic libraries? .deb file? AppImage? Flatpak? Higher-level language like java?). How do you reliably link to libraries like mesa or even glibc? Now there is a solution: just distribute a windows program and test it to confirm it works in wine/proton. Perhaps it is better for DirectX adoption, but it seems like Vulkan/OpenGL/WebGPU are still superior in terms of cross-compatibility, regardless if you use wine or not.

Rank on Your Competitor's Keywords
Hey!

I just graduated highschool, going to collage. I got bored during the summer vacation and i was looking for a project to do. Then inspiration came: a friend, paid a guy to copy his competitor’s blog posts, to target the same keywords, topic and audience but change the wording so it won’t be copyrighted.

I told him that i can build a software to do that task even better than the guy he hired and i created Seoheister. Basically it gets a blog post, extracts the important information, then it extracts the keywords that it should rank for, then rewrites the blog is a way that is similar to the initial one but it gives it a better wording, and more exact targeting on those keywords. That way it keeps the informative and human aspect but it ranks better.

I am wondering what you guys think about it.
The answer I hear in lefty circles is ever lower taxation on them. (Since WWII?)

>NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams...will get a ride [back] on board SpaceX's Crew Dragon in February. It's an extremely unfortunate development for Boeing

That's not an unfortunate development at all. The decision to not risk human lives is based on what's already happened, it's not a new happening. If Starliner comes back successfully/safely, that will be a plus, and if it doesn't, that will be a new minus.
It’s because when the US thought it could invade and conquer, they were thoroughly trounced and had their original White House burned down. The strategic calculus never made annexing Canada a viable proposition beyond then, and there are enough cultural differences to prevent a peaceful annexation.

Similarly, Poland once occupied Moscow in the distant past and has managed to persist as a distinct nation, though the Russian calculus sometimes worked out against Poland such as during Russian-Prussian or Soviet-Nazi alliances.

Ukraine and Russia have their own history yet Ukrainians have managed to valiantly persevere as we can witness today. Unfortunately for geographic reasons the strategic calculus there is much tighter than US-Canada or Russia-Poland.
Research is fantastic. Why release the models publicly if they can't be openly used?
My understanding was that this was a firm fixed price contract, not a cost contract. Boeing can't just cancel the contract once they are underwater, it would defeat the purpose of FFP which is to shift risk to the contractor. The government can and will demand specific performance. Usually with FFP the contractor will outline ALL assumptions made which the government will clarify and agree to. The contractor will price all of that out, apply a risk multiplier 1.5x - 2.0x and target a 30% margin on all of that. FFP contracts typically have the highest potential for profit vs. 'cost plus' contracts.
I haven't worked with FX or Swing lately but I could have sworn they delivered hidpi support. Maybe in this JEP? https://openjdk.org/jeps/263
If you're constantly consuming American news, you might think so, but I'm skeptical anything sufficiently significant is so worth a Canadian occupying their mind with.

> what is happening in the US right now will have a dramatic effect

So... what is that and why would it have a dramatic effect? How do you define dramatic effect? We have our own issues that people are surprisingly uninformed about (to be fair, it's just an impression I get, I'm also only as informed as I am, there's only so much one can devote to it compared to the result), and yet deeply affected by. For example, a huge portion of people are affected by being priced out of having a home or even a stable life, yet they most likely couldn't name which level of government has authority over which (high level) facets of policy that might be related to that, or who any of the housing ministers are, and won't get off their ass to vote.

I'm not convinced that for an average Canadian, other than getting something to talk about, it is or has been in recent memory at all useful to pay attention to American news, to such an extent that functionally zero aspect of most people's lives would have even a marginally different outcome having been completely ignorant.

That's not to say that aren't _at_all_ useful things to keep up with depending on who you are, but it's wildly unlikely in my opinion that's going to come general news media.
I really, really hope Boeing doesn't cancel Starliner. Trading a public space monopoly for a private one would be a huge net negative for the country.

The SpaceX leadership has goals that can be opaque and need not align with NASA's. Recently, in the context of X and Tesla, they've bordered on deranged and even anti-American.

If Boeing can get out of the learning phase, even as an imperfect company, it can provide a most valuable service even if its platform is nominally second best.
1-10 sound about right. Though I'd question how relevant the algo/scaling component really was for FB to outcompete MySpace.

I mean, it's not like the CCP isn't doing a superset of the same things...
what about global or static variables of value types? i mean in theory you could stack-allocate whatever you want in your main() method and pass pointers to everything, but that sounds unusably clumsy. but with global variables and/or class variables there would be no problem except for things that inherently require heap allocation by the nature of the problem
We actually work better than RPA tools like UIpath, since all our targets use english rather than computer vision or code selectors. I suspect they will copy this idea in the future. We can show you side-by-side comparisons of automations failing in others or that are impossible
What are some real world apps using CRDTs that have really good experiences?

IIRC Notion was supposed to be one of them but realistically taking notes with two people in Notion is almost unusable compared to Google Docs.
Given the information on the "happenings" of US politics, what is someone to do with that information other than moan and groan?
Could you be more specific? What are you suggesting to do?
That is not supporting evidence for a policy of "fire the worst X%" being anything other than a recipe for internecine warfare.
Are you proposing the federal government invoke The War Powers Act or The Defense Production Act and seize all of Boeing's production assets? During peacetime? Over engineering failures in the civilian sector? Does anybody actually believe that would fly in court?

That's some high-grade fantasy...
This is undoubtedly true. It might be doing nefarious things, but it was definitely not written with efficiency in mind.
I don't know how realistic the approach in general is but "This site only works in ${SpecificBrowser}" or "Your browser does not support ${'Standard'}" banner refusals have yet to result in a business getting sued for not displaying properly in an arbitrary browser that isn't supported.
And it reveals how "hallucinations" are a quite common occurrence also for humans.
so they can raise your premiums if you don't brush as often or as well as they'd like.

Shit's already fucking happening with car insurance. Install their app to reduce your premium! It's only a matter of time before it's the other way around.
That's not what I find insane though, nor is it what I said. The fact that this person is willing to sink in a ton of time iteratively coercing an LLM to spit out something that they themselves admitted had negative side effects, and didn't work that well, and describing it like hounding a personal employee in the name of "productivity" is like 7 layers of insane to me. All to avoid spending, probably less, time learning. Like I'm baffled at what motivates people who are like this. It's gotta be money right?

That does NOT mean interest rates were negative.

Typo. I meant interest rates.

I am not disagree with what you said, but I wanted to point one thing out:

> how is environment separated from heritability?

It isn't. That's why heritable traits are different than genetic traits.

Alcoholism is a heritable disease but is not a genetic disease. One cannot suffer from alcoholism in an environment where alcohol does not exist.
Pseudorandom but you’d have an issue with the fact that certain tall objects get struck all the time and there are better radio noise sources that are probably better at generating entropy.

Maybe the timing rather than the locality might be a better input.

> This also means that on average, a man on campus is more qualified to be there than a woman on campus

You make a lot of assertions, however I think you would be better off finding evidence. For instance, 93% of women graduate, while only 91% of men do. This would seem to indicate that women are more qualified to be there by at least one metric.

The truely sad part, they could be 1GB and no one would care.
It does the same thing re: hooking, but downloads most (if not all?) of the models, only at the end does it fail with "precondition check failed" from the server which aicore just repeats.

I haven't gotten further in it to figure out what it's bailing out on, aside from the request going to google using the trusted dl service and failing. It could be the same model call and they are being oddly protective over gemini nano.

Regardless of sourcing, this is the kind of article that gets people talking, and can be self-fulfilling.

I don't see the value to Boeing, or its traumatized shareholders, in continuing the losses.

Starliner isn't fully reusable, so unlikely to ever be really profitable. It is a very poor start to any wider space ambitions.

If I was Boeing's CEO, I would have confidentially got the conversation rolling too. But this is off the record, deep background. No attribution on those statements, please!
MakeMusic ends development and availability of Finale; partners with Steinberg
Curious about the ACL study... do you have a link handy?
> I hope people treat you with respect and understanding and don’t attack you for stealing if you ever need to discontinue any of your software products or happen to go out of business.

No-one is attacking MakeMusic for discontinuing their product, yet you continue to assert this.

People are attacking MakeMusic for removing a way that you can continue to use their product as long as there are no technical limitations preventing you. No-one is saying "Oh, it needs to support Windows 14 and macOS 18". They are saying "there is nothing wrong with the software I purchased, nor the hardware I wish to run it on. You are just arbitrarily preventing me from doing so".

They don't have to keep activation servers running. Create a patch that disables the online activation requirement. Done.
Previous: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41358160
Previous discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41363231

Article contains a short history of Finale, and some added information compared to yesterday. MakeMusic will remain in business, but still intends to shut down its DRM activation service for Finale after one year, presumably as a result of their agreement with Steinberg.

Edit: New update to the article now has the following statement from MakeMusic: “We’ve heard your concerns. They are valid. We originally announced that it would no longer be possible to reauthorize Finale after August 26th, 2025. But as a result of our community’s feedback, Finale authorization will remain available for the foreseeable future: Please note that future OS changes can still impact your ability to use Finale on new devices.”
> The state has a monopoly on the purchasing of healthcare services, it is illegal in most provinces to buy any healthcare for your family.

Why is it illegal to purchase healthcare privately? When I lived in the UK, I skipped the NHS and used my private insurance all the time to avoid all the issues you listed. Why not make it available to those that can afford the option?
How does it compare to the tightness of comments here in HN?
First, I don't understand why the two astronauts are going to be stranded for months. After the Columbia disaster, NASA adopted a policy where another Shuttle could be scrambled if a rescue mission as required. Shuttles took a lot of processing between missions. Replacing tiles, inspecting engines, that sort of thing. The report after Columbia showed that it might have been possible to scramble another Shuttle but the timeline was super tight. NASA decided not to repeat that mistake.

So here we are where an 8 day mission turns into a 6 month mission because NASA (via SpaceX )doesn't have a backup? How did that happen?

It's also worth noting that Crew Dragon can be configured for 6 passengers. NASA uses a 4 passenger configuration because there's simply no need for a 6 person configuration... except for now.

It may actually end up being cheaper for Boeing to simply return the money (or negotiate a partial return) and throw up the white flag. Boeing is in such a terrible state. It's simply coasting on earlier successes and airlines being locked in to the 737 type rating.
Canadian mainstream news sit left but think they are neutral/unbiased because all other mainstream orgs speak from the same narrative. In the US they admit bias (for some reason cnn tries to pretend to be neutral).

Canadian news is shallow and doesn't allow a diversity of ideas so people ignore it.

> policing isn't about stopping or even responding to crime; [...] But routinely I will see 5 cops standing around talking, with 3 cop cars blocking traffic/bike lanes/lightrail tracks, while one cop is looming over/talking at a homeless person sitting on the sidewalk.

Simpler explanation: "Get home safe at the end of the day" is by very far the priority in US police. By outright policy. This gets translated with EVERYONE showing up when one of their colleagues gets an idea of doing something. All the more so that this probably looks good in the end-of-day paperwork, and counts as having done something. And is perfectly safe. And you get to chat with your colleagues while on the clock.
Does he explain how to do it so that it works better than the last time (1960s and 70s in the US and Western Europe) it was tried?
The current contract charges NASA about $280 million per Crew Dragon mission. The F9 costs SpaceX about $20 million to launch, so as long as refurbishing a Dragon costs less than $260 million dollars, yes, SpaceX is making a profit on these flights.
If I may, I think you both may be talking slightly past one another. From my view:

Ben_wb is pointing out that understanding of concepts is not quite the same as an identical experience of the way they are conveyed. I can use a translation app to to correspond with someone who only knows Mandarin, and they'll understand the concept of vowels, even if they can't tell me how many vowels are in the original sentence I wrote, because that sentence was lost in translation.

KaoD is pointing out that if the system really understands anything nearly as well as it first appears, it should still perform better than it does. My hypothetical Chinese pen-pal would at least be able to recognize and explain why they can't answer me, even if they don't have all the information to solve it.

It's an ad hominem attack a lot of times. Calling RFK an anti vaxxer for example. He's much different than a person that flat out refuses all vaccines. But it's very effective to call him that and shut off all engagement with any aspects of his critique.
Yes, but what will the government do with the money. We could already build Eden on earth if it weren't for wars. Governments keep spending money on wars, so what's the point of taking more in taxes. It will all go to shits anyways.

And by the way, if you think that governments are accountable to the public you are sadly mistaken. They are accountable to that 1%.
