Have VR headset from almost of the original, was not part of the kickstarter, but got the first on (Rift?), and have now Quest 3 and Apple Vision Pro. Also tried PSVR1/2 but returned them.

The only reason I would use Quest 3 only for fitness. I actually very like it, really entertaining, and keeps you motivated.

The only reason I would use AVP just to see new Apple TV Shows (Immersive) which are only 5-6 minutes long, and watch videos/photos in Spatial format, that really give me some emotions. I have tried to use it as external display, hard to compete with setup of 2 5K/6K monitors. Also, it is so easy to get out of the Mac, and come back without putting headset on. Sure, you can walk with the headset, but why would you.

What I really like right now is Meta AI glasses. I can snap a photo of my dogs on the walk, without taking my phone out, I can talk to AI while visiting museum without trying to get through the crowd to the sign. That device really amazed me. And it just a simple sunglasses, with being a bit more annoying, just because they weight a bit more, only after 3-4 hours I start noticing them on my nose.
It's a defense contractor with a track record of delivering things to USGov no one else is capable of (Starlink/Starshield). They're not a public service—but they do work for the US.
Allowing your personal crusade against a person to impact your regulatory duties as a government official should land you in jail. Because what you're doing in your regulatory oversight position should be regulatory oversight of the issue not trying to impend on someone's freedom of speech.

Try and set your ego aside and just do your job. This kind of attitude you have right here where you think the FAA should punish somebody's opinions is what makes the phrase "drain the swamp so popular". Literally unelected bureaucrats should be doing their job and not trying to control the speech of others.
You Seen knowledeble on this topic. What do you think of the numerous Deutsche Bank and Lufthansa aids?
Users don't want sandboxing! It's frustrating enough on iOS and Android. They want to be able to cut and paste, have all their files in one place, open files in multiple applications at the same time, have plugins, etc.

Having compatibility requirements is almost the definition of an operating system.

If you bundle every application with basically the entire OS needed to run them then what exactly have you created?
Yup in most cases striking employees don't want the end consumer to boycott the company, because ultimately it hurts them as well. Picketing is done to (1) raise awareness and (2) discourage non-union/temporary labor from replacing them during the strike.
"Being a total jerk" is his 1st Amendment right.
One thing I also miss is being able to just jump from the regular game on a monitor into VR and back. Star Wars: Squadrons is the only game I can think of that even has VR as an in-game option to toggle. Everything else requires a full restart of the game to switch to VR or even the purchase of a separate VR version of the game.

That's something that should have been handled much smoother, especially given the comfort issue that might force people to not play everything in VR. But alas, VR support in regular monitor games is extremely rare to begin with and that area of VR never really got much support.
Using CSV is an interesting idea! I havent looked at your code yet - does it automaticaly sync when something changes in the file? Do you have an admin panel for end users? In YNS, we provide a dashboard that simplifies managing products and orders (though it’s not yet open-sourced)
Ever driven through rural America? Lots of people raise their own chickens, keep hens for eggs, grow their own veggies and fruit. Their property taxes are low, their income is low, but they're not hungry, and often want for nothing.
I have no idea who this person is, but I found their investment philosophy interesting food for thought. I wonder how much of their disillusionment with tech industry is due to just getting older and jaded versus an actual drop in quality/boldness/etc.
Postgres is not operated by the same people as Neon or Amazon, thats a fundamental difference. I was also not suggesting commercial cannot benefit Open Source (and would in fact quite the opposite).

In general I was not commenting if they're opposed, but suggesting an Open Core project is Open Source is not truthful. "Core" is a meaningless term, and if we suggest any Open Core project is Open Source, I can easily academically argue that the majority of businesses are Open Core, thus Open Source, and we'd all agree that's not true.

This project is Open Core, and thats fine, but Open Core is not inherently Open Source, and if we're going to care about that term in some contexts (e.g. with Fair Source) we need to care about it in all contexts.
oh hey- that's your guide? It's awesome, highly recommend to anyone else wanting to give jujutsu a try! ... I read through it when I didn't know what jujutsu was. It not only convinced me to try jujutsu out, but laid the groundwork for me to get started really quickly and easily.
Libertarian paternalism and tool design (2009)
Unions sometimes hire on third party organizations to help them organize, I don’t think they are specifically specialized against anti-union consulting firms, but I bet that’s part of it.

"Our wells killed us off." "Did you consider accepting help?" "That violates our belief system." I am at a loss, unfortunately. A genuine “good luck” I suppose.
The reasons GPUs are useful is that they allow us to stay closer Moore's curve. Power is the problem, not AI algorithms. AI algorithms are a tensor processing best case right now. It took us decades to develop widely parallel algorithms for graphics rendering. AI will develop new algorithms. And algorithms will be optimized to be more sparse, which will make them less of an ideal case for the widely parallel hardware. But we will likely need both serial and widely parallel cores to handle any future algorithm.
I think at least these days, usage of the term can include customers. For example, this from the University of Maine's Bureau of Labor Education: "Customers may refuse to cross a picket line and picketers have the right to ask customers to honor their picket but should not intimidate, block customer access, disparage a company’s product, or say anything that is untrue or casts the product in a false or misleading light."

Or this, from the Emergency Workplace Organizing Committee: "Lastly, customers also have the right to honor the picket line and arguably have the most important role in influencing employers’ decisions, outside of the workers themselves."

Or this, from NYT writer: "Having walked a picket line before, I try not to cross anyone else’s. The W and its parent company, Marriott, know there are lots of people like me. So why hadn’t they disclosed in advance what would greet me upon arrival?"

Get an overview of the things they want changed and determine if it's something you have time for, or are willing to set aside time for. Can you deliver in a reasonable timeframe, for their definition of reasonable.

Assuming that's a go, then decide how it should be paid for. You have the option of time based (hourly/daily/weekly rates) payment, where you should charge the higher of what's normal for your area or the potential client's.

Or a project-based payment. If you're new to this, and it sounds like you are, I would stay away from this. Done right, you can make far more than time-based billing, but it takes experience to get it right.

Never forget: profitable businesses have money and expect to use it to get what they want. Despite what other comments say, it's exceptionally unlikely that they expect you to do it for free. They expect a bill that's at least a month of a developer's fully burdened salary.

After you've gone through this experience, you may have a better idea if it's something other businesses are likely to ask for. If so, make sure you indicate on the site that customizations are available.
As I understand it, the earliest they could actually strike would be 80 days from today, as per the Taft-Hartley act, putting the strike on November 29 (after the election).

Something seems broken when a group is paid relatively fair wages (https://www.levels.fyi/companies/the-new-york-times-company/...), works 35 hours a week before overtime, and is talking about going on a strike. I don't think that fits with the original purpose of unions.

Yes, we’re working on this - we plan to start by enabling stablecoin-only payments. Would that work for your use case?

Hence, fewer US companies will have significant production in the EU in general, and possibly Ireland in particular. Let's hope it will help native European industries flourish %)
There are a bunch of ancient languages that no one can read yet like Linear A or Cretan and the different documents we have written in them. That represents a whole society whose writing we can't read though, not a (as far as we can tell) one off item.
My hellofresh sife-specific email alias got a similar email.
They've suffered a massive contraction in revenue and already had to cut back hugely; you're ignoring that, and focusing on the bounce-back.
About public healthcare it's pretty similar on Brazil! Many people can't pay for specialists, exams and etc. So, they have to go early morning (when it's dark yet), wait on long queues and many of them when finally is attended the local doesn't have more vacancies and need to go back another day.
> Perhaps the NYT isn't left-wing in a global context, and it is likely centrist in New York City, but it is definitely to the left of the median US voter.

That isn't true at all. You're probably thinking of the NYT 20 years ago, under the Bush administration. Do you read the newspaper, or are you parroting talking points? I used to subscribe until the blatantly conservative bias became overwhelming.

> They're probably anti-union in this case because they're on tenuous financial footing

Didn't they just report a 13.3% increase in YoY profits on their most recent financial quarter? Your chart shows a company with healthy growth for several years running. A billion dollars in profit last year and on track to do it again this year isn't "tenuous".
The "targeting "hard core" game culture with violent games" thing is quite silly. Many of the most mainstream games around, played by average Joes, are very violent games. I am thinking particularly of the Call of Duty and Halo franchises. Meanwhile many "hardcore gamers" making a lifestyle out of it are into games like Mario.
The linked post mentions 60 months instead of days.
Seems like Ireland should have to pay the EU
> The guild, which was formed in 2022, has yet to secure a contract after more than two years of bargaining.

This seems like a pretty reasonable reason to strike. Arguably it’s the most justifiable reason to strike.
Is this what all the writing in the Voynich manuscript is then?

Handling errors from `close`, or the lack thereof
NYTimes games section is more popular than its articles. They're basically a mobile game company that happens to have a news division.
You are literally trying to show an enormous flaw of an otherwise amazing watch as a something positive which makes no sense to me. My Garmin also charges fast but lasts almost 3 weeks and I just plug it in when it tells me it needs to be plugged in and I don't need a "charging routine" for that.
> But the FAA really does take much more time than they should

What does that mean? Don't they take the amount of time they need in order to ensure safety, so that's the perfect amount of time? Or are you saying they're purposefully dragging their feet behind them just to make it slower for no good reason?
> Allowing your personal crusade against a person to impact your regulatory duties as a government official should land you in jail. Because what you're doing in your regulatory oversight position should be regulatory oversight of the issue not trying to impend on someone's freedom of speech.

If you're just 5% slower at answering requests to people you dislike in favor of people you like, imagine how much this weighs down a person in aggregate across all actors and decision makers in the state space. This wouldn't even have to be a conscious bias here, it could be a completely subconscious preference.
Good for them. More workers need to be understanding just how much they are being exploited by their leadership and demand a more equitable piece of the pie.
It is, thank you and I'm glad to hear it!

That is definitely a difficult paper trail. If you make valves in Ireland they at least have to be shipped. Code just moves on the network. As do commands.

But wouldn’t Ireland see their taxes as “working” if Irish coders are being hired to do the work?
> First, I’ve felt for a few years now that the startups I’m seeing don’t seem so much like progress as just shopkeeping. ... it’s just not that interesting. The excitement I had as a 14-year old in 1979 trying to understand everything there was to know about computers, because this was something that could radically improve people’s lives, ... it’s just maintaining the current status quo. It just feels, I don’t know, done.

This definitely felt true to me. All the potential of technology seems spent in computers. It seems like it's just a matter of making the existing commerce 5% faster. If I had to restart as a teenager I'd perhaps be looking into 3D printing. That seems like something that can actually make a difference. It's actually exciting. LLVMs are actually exciting, Docker/K8S, but beyond that don't know that anything really excites me.
Does it mean LTO tape for the win then?

We’re about to start a project to build an LTO-9 based in-house backup system. Any suggestions for DIY Linux based operation doing it “correctly” would be appreciated. Preliminary planning is to have one drive system on in our primary data center and another offsite at an office center where tapes are verified before storage in locked fireproof storage cabinet. Tips on good small business suppliers and gear models would be great help.

Very interesting, where do you see value:

a.) in Kubernetes setups that operate the same software stack, with the ongoing updates and regular releases.

b.) in Kubernetes setups that frequently install new software/diverse software
Not transacting with a business in solidarity with an ongoing strike is a boycott. People can boycott the NYT in support of the strike. But crossing a picket line is a much, much bigger deal than not participating in a boycott. If you skip the NYT Mini Crossword for a week to support the strikers, I respect that, but I'm going to keep pushing for that sweet 15s finish this week and I'm going to sleep fine doing it.
It looks nice, indeed. Upvote for on-premise version.

That might work in a one-party consent state but the passenger who never interacts with the touch screen in a two-party consent state would have a stronger case. Though, even then, gathering the evidence that they're violating such laws would probably be a pretty big hurdle.
It's pretty great for home router/wifi usage or SOHO... not as advanced/flexible as pfsense/opnsense though. I miss Tomato a lot myself, but switched to separate router/ap a few years ago, and haven't had a device that could run tomato in close to a decade now.
I think most people buy a new smart phone because the battery has aged too much. And changing to a new battery never seems to improve things.
I think that the court ruled that it was unfair to other countries, not to Ireland. Ireland gained from the deal, didn't lose anything.

I've wondered about the long-term implications for the Mars goal as Elon keeps burning bridges within politics. Not that he was treated well by the current White House with regard to electric vehicles, so it's understandable that he would be upset. But turning around and endorsing the other candidate all while going on the attack against the current administration probably isn't winning anyone over.

Overall, I just don't understand why Elon has allowed the Twitter political brainrot to take hold. If he's playing strategically, then it's happening at a level which isn't legible to me. I really don't see how engaging so much in divisive political issues is going to help him advance his claimed primary goal of extending human life to Mars.
> Despite a small, but vocal, minority of detractors trying to game the regulatory system to obstruct and delay the development of Starship, SpaceX remains committed to the mission at hand.

Is the "small but vocal minority" the FAA here? They seem to go on the offensive instead of trying to work with the very people who can possibly decide their fate, seems a bit short-sighted.
Notice that door switch middle is a crowbar[1] which is there to prevent the magnetron from powering on when all else fails (and there is a lot of interlocking). My friends parents had a microwave that kept dying so I opened it up and realized one of the three switches was a crowbar and it blew the fuse. I changed the fuse and it powered on again and ran for a few more days until it blew again. They decided it was unsafe and canned it.

You can't just look at results over the last four years when you're analyzing a newspaper that's 172 years old. They've had massive declines in recent years, which caused huge cutbacks. I think it's reasonable for them to try to preserve their options to cut costs in the future.
What's the scenario where you cannot take the old 1990's hard drive and back up its data in multiple cloud service providers cold storage (Azure/AWS/GCP) and have to keep the obsolete physical media on hand?

I'm struggling to understand why these miles of shelves filled with essentially hardware junk haven't been digitized at the time when this media worked and didn't experience read issues.

The article doesn't really provide an explanation for this other than incompetence and the business biting off more than it can reasonably chew. I'd be furious if I paid for a service that promised to archive my data, and 10-15 years later told me 25% of it was unreadable. I mean it's not like it was a surprise either. These workflows became digital 2-3 decades ago. There was plenty of time to prepare and convert this.

That's kind of what I'm paying you for.

As always, seems like the simple folk of /r/datahoarder and other archivist communities are more competent than a legacy industry behemoth.

This sounds very much like an incomplete story. Knowing nothing else, I'd guess that SpaceX pissed off somebody or somebodies, and it doesn't make a lot of sense to evaluate how reasonable or unreasonable their reaction is without knowing what triggered it. It looks like somebody is using whatever tool they have at their disposal, and the question is why.

It could be a result of repeated violations of regulatory action, and this is a smackdown to show that yes, the government can fuck you up if it wants to. But that's pure speculation on my part.

Of course, Musk will try to make this look as bad as possible. If his handy tool Trump wins this fall, Musk will use this to motivate his "let's streamline government by creating a new government oversight committee!" plan, which is probably largely intended to cripple any regulatory oversight that could possibly get in his way.

Editorial Review: Sep 2018

The NYT's slant has shifted post 2020.
Not to mention they probably have plenty working on internal tooling/data analysis that assists their reporting.

I think people are underestimating how much tech it could take to run a company like the NYTimes.
Comparing Apple Watch to Mi Band makes no sense. Apple Watch is more of a microcomputer than a cheap smart band. It would be better to compare it to something like Garmin Fenix 7X that lasts you almost 40 days with 120 hours in GPS mode and does much more than a Mi Band.
