It's not _just_ memory safety. In my experience, Rust is also liberating in the sense of mutation safety. With memory safe languages such as Java or Python or JavaScript, I must paranoidly clone stuff when passing stuff to various functions whose behaviour I don't intimately know of, and that is a source of constant stress for me.
I doubt it'd tell them any more than they already know. These drivers tend to have been given citations already.

The real money would be in giving civilians whose footage leads to a successful prosecution for moving violations a percentage of the fine. NYC already has something like this for people who catch too-long idling trucks and photograph/video record it.
There are far less hit and runs than speeders or road ragers.
It would indeed make a lot of sense for Google to untie drivers from Linux, as it could mean drivers that work on both Linux and Fuchsia.
This is surprising news. I was surprised Tumblr was still around.
VC Mike Maples of Floodgate recently wrote a new book on a tangential topic. The founders of the best companies he's invested in (Twitch, Lyft, Twitter) don't mind being perceived as outsiders. They're confidently living in some future state that the rest of the world hasn't caught up to yet. He calls this quality "disagreeableness", but it could also be described as a comfort with being unique. If a desire for that quality is decreasing, does it make it harder or easier to bring innovative new ideas to market?

But overall he is one of the only European leaders which speaks with all relevant parties and tries to stop the conflict in Ukraine.

They may not be making visits to Moscow to kiss Putin's hand, like Orban did. But the governments of all the major European countries are continually in contact with the relevant parties, and they all want to "stop the conflict in Ukraine". It's just a question of under which terms.
It's a Mastodon post
The first Google hacking* was done not much after Google introduced image search. For a while (maybe even still?) it was a popular pastime on for example on reddit ("write xxx in the comment to make this image show up as first" etc).

*or whatever it is called, when you spam an image with some specific keywords to show up first on google for those terms
Safe Rust prevents data races, but not race conditions in general.
Mastodon was dead from the start, it isn’t in the running.

Threads has too big of an image problem to overcome. No one wants Instagram for Twitter.

Bluesky is the only platform currently that has a chance, but it’s an under funded, tiny team who can’t ship on time. Bluesky will see a surge in registrations but no change in DAU as they still haven’t supported video, so no one will stay on the site.
Hackaday is a bit lax in their presentation: Feymans original ratchet ( or any machine like it ) cannot extract work as soon as it’s in thermal equilibrium with its surroundings.

The “surrounding chaos” mentioned is not thermal motion, rather the machine presented in the article extracts work from non equilibrium wave patterns.

> Reddit still has a lot of adult content, but AFAIK you can't find it unless you know where it is.

When Reddit made its infamous API changes over a year ago that caused many third-party apps to shut down, a less-publicized part of the change was that NSFW content would no longer be available in the API at all, even for apps that paid for the API access.

There was a analysis done a while back which showed the impact that this had on overall posting behavior, because of how Reddit's algorithm works (a drop in visibility across the board will effectively downrank large NSFW subreddits more than small NSFW subreddits, because Reddit artificially boosts lower-volume subreddits in your frontpage so they don't get drowned out). You can also compare total vote counts from August 2023 to June 2023 to gauge the difference too.
You can’t be so naive that you think this has anything to do with the reasons you listed.

The government in Brazil does not like X because users are critizing the government.

Unfortunately Brazil is barely a democracy and it’s infested with little potentates.
No, that's not what I'm suggesting at all.

I'm saying all this is built into your platform of choice, both IAP frameworks available on your platform of choice, and browsers available through that platform's distribution of choice, therefore let publishers register with the platforms (or post keys and coordinates in DNS, or whatever), and the platforms distribute that to the publishers.

Google shouldn't even care if they lose a percentage of ad revenue if they get the same percentage of direct subscription. Meanwhile, Apple gets the benefit of pennies per traffic (not a cash flow they are in today) without the tarnish of being for the advertisers instead of the users and creators.

Brave (with BAT) and others have toyed with such models, but they're from the wrong vantage, and the marketplace needs too many legs of the stool built to bootstrap. Leveraging legs that are already there could make this plausible.
DLNA is okay if the receiver supported the codecs well enough to avoid playback stalling. Though it lacks search and dashboard features.

I prefer having an app that can save progress and remember what I've already watched. (As a younger person I could recognize a show or movie from a glimpse while surfing. Nowadays I find myself rewatching for several minutes before recognizing the program.)
> If drivers were worried about their rates going up, they would not do the very activities that put them in that risk in the first place.

Not if they're underestimating the risk. For instance, if they think speed limits are instituted by clueless bureaucrats, or they think they're better than the average driver and therefore can drive more aggressively.
Who gave Tesla and their drivers the right to set up video surveillance cameras in public?
> I would rather have some 3 terror attacks more per year, than having privacy of millions invaded and our way of living destroyed, just to prevent those 3 cases.

End to end encrypted chat for the general public has only been available for ~15 years. On the web, SSL is ~30 years old. PGP is ~35 years old.

As far as I can tell people's way of living now is largely the same as it was back before any of those were around, so I don't see how it would destroy our way of living if much of that went away.
We've seen this type of thing happen with Ring, where the police want video from people's private cameras. Do police have the legal right to access/take people's private property like this? I thought the 4th amendment of the constitution protected against unreasonable searches and seizures?
Insurers may not be the best recipients given most of those things are criminal matters.

In my country, most police forces accept dashcam evidence from other road users, and will prosecute on it. It’s seen be the police as a great road safety tool.
You've totally missed the point of the article - the failure is not idiosyncratic to any one CEO or to an individual manager's failure, it's the result of incentives that put these kinds of CEOs in charge, who then single-mindedly work towards a particular goal - please short-term shareholders. It is very much a theme.
Surely you don't live in a city.
That's because Twitter, in a weird twist of "that... makes sense?" doesn't algorithmically push sexual content out to the masses. It's a rare case of a feed algorithm actually keeping the right content away from you.
It’s probably more correct if I say that data types themselves are thread safe or not.

https://doc.rust-lang.org/nomicon/send-and-sync.html

So therefore a function can’t do things that invalidate that type level contract.
Before it was bought by Macromedia ColdFusion was produced by Allaire (the Allaire brothers): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allaire_Corporation

I want to say Macromedia mostly bought ColdFusion for it's editor. The language seemed to be a bit of afterthought.
Tumblr is one website. Not 500,000. Even though 500,000 people have a blog there, it is still tumblr.com. Even if you do set up a subdomain such as my-blog.tumblr.com it still just redirects to tumblr.com/my-blog. Counting tumblr as 500,000 websites is like counting everyone’s Facebook profile as its own website.
Shouldn’t they just use a static site generator? /s
There are tons of underdocumented Rust libraries, where I've had to pore over it for very long periods of time because the author probably thought the code would speak for itself and not bother writing any documentation strings on any of the functions.

No, Rust doesn't solve the problem of incomplete API docs. Developers being diligent enough to document the APIs solves the problems, and that solution is entirely language-independent.

>Do police have the legal right to access/take people's private property like this? I thought the 4th amendment of the constitution protected against unreasonable searches and seizures?

Search warrants specifically exist to give police the "legal right to access/take people's private property", and are widely accepted to be constitutional.
AT Protocol aggregators (“relays”) can choose their own content moderation policies. It’s possible that if there are multiple relays, and one of them doesn’t block violent / hate speech, the government would ban that relay and corresponding domain, and others could continue to thrive.
The RELB Project
This is a project to bring back the game LawBreakers, it's done by creating 'fake' servers that the original game client uses. You can join by downloading the launcher, patching your game and playing like normal. This is achieved by a lot of reverse engineering and fully creating our own servers which is insanely time consuming.
It seems like an interesting project as well! I'd love to see it one day
How do all of those factors compare with say the sodium ion or sodium sulfur battery?
Thanks for that correction. I misunderstood a forum post that was probably someone being snarky/cynical.
In this case, I believe he thought the law won't be enforced. His gamble didn't work out.

Putin visiting Mongolia when there is an ICC arrest warrant for him is the same type of gamble.
It’s different depending on the municipality. Your initial statement is not exclusively true of every inch of land in the US. Furthermore any illegality is limited to what any small police department can actually do about it.
Ehh, I’m an ML scientist with a PhD in category theory and I really don’t see it going anywhere. The comparison to geometric deep learning is especially misplaced, because I think you’ll find that Bronstein’s school sets things us as a group action, etc, but then does a lot of really hard math to actually tease out properties of how information flows through a gnn. Here they just do the Applied Category Thing and say they’ve drawn a picture so QED.

> If you ever wonder why everything made with Stable Diffusion looks the same

Everything you know is made with Stable Diffusion looks the same because if it doesn't look the same you probably don't know it was made with Stable Diffusion.

> The "AI artists" using this tool lack the technical and artistic competency to realize this.

No, they don't. It's been a frequent comment in the AI art community and a thing for which the community has sought and produced both in-generation and auxiliary-tooling solutions for from very early on.

> They didn't write the algorithm, draw the dataset, or train the model.

Perhaps not for the base model, people int he AI art community have done all three of those for improvements to and tools built around the base models and the original code implementation of them.

> I do believe AI can be used in the process to create art as it's just an image generator like fractal art, but the problem is most people are going to use AI not as a means to create art, but as an end.

Most of the people who are using any tool that can be used artistically are going to use it at the most superficial level. Is that true of AI image generators? Sure. But no moreso than it is true of, say, pencils.

> You could fix the problem above by simply importing the image into GIMP and changing the brightness, but nobody does that because they aren't interesting into creating an art piece with a set goal in mind, they're just being entertained by generating dozens or hundreds of images with this technology.

People are using AI image generation with a set goal in mind, and people absolurely do import generated images into to traditional image editors for adjustments. Though a lot of the people that really know what they are doing have that built into their workflows, reducing the need to do manual spot correction in a separate editor.

> Amusingly, you could also just type text in GIMP. Instead there is now something called "flux" that can do text literals.

Image generation models have been able to do text to a certain extent for a while, and improvements in text generation have been a major trumpeted feature of many recent model releases. Flux isn't interesting because "it can do text literals", it is interesting because the community has discovered that it can be finetuned (specifically, that LoRA can be trained for it) that will allow control of text style, similar to fonts.

I wasn't aware that GIMP could comform typed text to the implicit 3d shape of the surfaces it is being placed on in a 2D image, though.

> When everything is AI, and anyone can generate an image with a prompt, the whole market will be so saturated with this (perhaps it already is at the rate these are generated) that all the novelty will be gone.

Probably. So what? Novelty isn't the point in every image people produce. Lowering the cost and effort to produce basically "looks good" images for lots of casual uses isn't, itself, an advance in fine art, sure. But it is, in itself, useful.
Wordpress is huge, but practically invisible to most of us.
Leave Something for Tomorrow
I hear you, however, firms that took ad sales back in house instead of auction, and went back to pairing ads with content instead of profiling each visitor, found they increased both ad revenue and user satisfaction. They were able to cover costs again. Separately, many who took time to build, say, substacks, found they could cover costs if audience and content were a match.

Most folks never look up from the adwords grind to consider that the whole existing ecosystem is misguided, and something from before might be better.

Excessive rent extraction, and content that targets ad revenue instead of sustained interest, seem to be where most sustainability gets lost. An auction engine at the heart of both these broken models accelerates the enrichment of the rent extractors and the decline of sustainability.
Not to nitpick your nitpick, but “more” has more than one definition.
I mean, that already kinda happens today? Everyone carries a camera in their pocket, and public freakouts are recorded and posted on the internet, leading to social consequences for the person in question.
I think it might have gotten them a few more sales initially, then more people would figure C64-with-gfx-and-sound sufficed and not moved on to learning ASM on it, and in turn not produce the awesome music, graphics effects and games that in turn helped sales later on. I think it would end up equal or even worse.
In my circle, tumblr is pretty much around. It had a bit of a renaissance after musk bought twitter and reddit broke 3rd party apps, when both userbases fled to tumblr
Inconsistent naming is one of a million things that will drive you crazy about WordPress if you are a detail-oriented person. It's a living demonstration of "Worse is better."
Great question.

There is nothing stopping them.

Which is why a privacy amendment must be passed and enforced with ruthless abandon if we don't want to pave the way for – and eventually become – an Orwellian panopticon in the service of authoritarians.
> You can change the name of the role but the associated task don't disappear.

Which he does admit but then says that just gets spread around.

But that doesn't mean people do it well, especially if it's not their primary role.

>Finally, a team of managers of one likely means few of them are good (not even great) at managing. How is that a good thing for the mentees? How is adding responsiblity to so many mentors a win?

Right, managing is a lot more than just a bunch of tasks you spread around. You need to have someone focusing on it, providing direction, identifying issues before they become too bad (which he also admits is a problem), among other things.

And managers can be IC's too! They don't have to be 100% managers.

Feels like he's saying "well some managers are bad so we'll just stop having them!"

The other thing is, for those that want to get into management, they will have to leave to advance. It's never good to have good employees leave because you don't have a position for them, especially when you arbitrarily remove it.

I'm not saying he's going to fail because of this, but they aren't going to be as good as they could be otherwise.

I like DHH, but he's way off on this.
What do you mean that they can patch all crate versions given a name? Sometimes the same patch might be trivially applied to many different versions of a library, but in the general case, this is not true: the amount of work is in direct proportion with the number of library versions you have to patch, even if you know exactly which versions those are. So the difference between maintaining, say, 3 versions of a library, and 30, is going to be ~10× the work, even with tools that instantly identify the exact versions that need to be patched.
I was definitely on a group chat of ML/category theory people roasting this paper when it came out, I’m sure I wasn’t the only one.

Ah missed that bit of history I guess. It’s still a bad idea, just the amount of effort it takes to translate from one system to another. I’m currently doing this at my company but we’re leaving Wordpress and it’s an astronomical effort.
>But the end result of all this is that you CAN, in fact, just look a the Rust API and know how to use it correctly for the most part.

For this I have to bring up that there are indeed rust API's that I have to Google around a bit because I have no way of knowing just by looking at the function signature how to create the type that it expects. Because some types you can't just make from scratch and have to use a combination of other functions to create.
Very much this. Towing by the police should only be something done when the car is in violation of something. I did not see anything about the expense of retrieving the car. You took the person's car so there is definite expense of getting there. Did you force the person to miss a flight, a meeting, a date? WTF do these people think they are so above and beyond rational thought is ridiculous.

A good senior developer should be able to go out to lunch with a candidate and determine if they are a good fit. No need for coding tests. No need to sit in a small room and work out problems on a whiteboard or chat about your most difficult problem at your last job. Just get lunch. Any good developer can evaluate another developer after a few minutes of conversation, and you can tell if it's a reasonable cultural fit. Just lunch. That's all you need.

To get to that point (mixed criticality, some processes and drivers can be critical and others not be), you need to be able to reason about time.

That's exclusively seL4 right now, and the very state of the art.

(incidentally, we really should be putting our weight behind seL4, it really is good)
I don't see how towing a car is any different

Before modern FISA courts, we generally had faith that a search warrant was warranted, based upon other investigation. From what the article said, this sounds more like a "fishing expedition".
TSMC doesn't have to pay ARM licensing costs or design chips for Apple. Their relationship is markedly different from what people are suggesting here, and is profitable because they more or less require Apple to make upfront investments to reserve upcoming nodes.

Intel's margins made sense when they were selling pre-designed x86 CPUs for use in Macs. It expressly does not make sense when a company notorious for loving low margins asks you to design and manufacture a chip you won't be legally allowed to use anywhere else. Again - Intel was absolutely correct to recognize Apple's attempt to cuck them here.
They should know how bad of an idea it is then. There is going to be so much broken from this migration.
How many of these half a billion blogs are zombie blogs that haven’t been updated in years?
You pretend this is some obvious fact, but obtaining a search warrant against a person or property that were uninvolved in the crime but may have only been 'witness' to it is not obvious or clear to me.
The selector issue is very visible in your video still: you can see black pixels at the top of the selected number where it shows the selector background, but none at the bottom because it's misaligned and the selection bubble is slightly outside its box.

Edit: zooming in closer it's maybe not outside the box at all, but there's some odd aliasing artifacts or something making the space above the highlight look bigger than the space below.

Honestly I don't think it makes it any better if the Unicode text is theoretically centered; the fact that there's zero separation between the options, and such poor spacing that it's difficult to tell and feels awkward either way is still terrible design.
Iron Will (2007)
I'm fairly confident that's not how WP.com does it. On WP.com - via WP multisite - each site has it's own instance of WP and therefore each counts as a site running WP.

Tumblr's injection would result in a significant increase in the number of websites running WP.
How does it patch all versions automatically? If the library has been refactored, you still need to modify the patch for the pre-refactor and the post-refractor versions, for example. The closest you might get is a ChatGPT-based tool, but that is nowhere near safe enough for security patches.
