Oh, I was wondering if it was that in the other thread!

But in that case, this really is just how passkeys work. The public key is the passkey, and clientId is a "key handle" (sometimes it's the private key encrypted with some root key stored on the hardware authenticator; sometimes it's just a database ID).

The device UDID should definitely not be available to relying parties though (WebAuthN is privacy-focused; the only allowable identifier is one that's shared across at least 100 000 devices), so it's confusing that Apple lists yours in their data export.

My export is currently pending; I'm curious to see what they're storing for me.
That's why we wanted to try the OSS approach where contributors can help keep up with the optimal strategy. We also plan to build an engine to test each strategy and compare retrieval perf before choosing one at runtime.

It's really bad when standups last for half an hour. A standup must include 5-7 people at most and last no longer than 15 mins. Preferably 5-10. Anything else should be discussed outside of standup between specific team members only.
So amazing! Strongly considering using this for my next purchase. Two quick questions:

a) How do offer + contingencies work (contingent on financing, home inspection etc.), will a human immediately have to get involved when any contingencies are involved?

b) Your service will text the sellers agent, and get me the lockbox number so I can tour a property myself without having to schedule with a buyers agent? Just that service alone would be amazing
Agreed, I used to believe the same until I worked with a good project manager. But in hindsight they went way beyond their responsibilities and actually served as a mix of product/project/engineering manager. So maybe author's point stands in the sense most "project managers" think their job is moving jira tickets from one state to other
My realtor was invaluable when I bought a house. He had a lot of valuable guidance on what to look for and what to avoid, as well as advice on how to make our offer stand out in a seller's market. I'm not saying that there aren't realtors who are just parasites, but some do earn their pay. Mine was one such.
Based on https://github.com/WinampDesktop/winamp/issues/11 it's their own code, just a different service they didn't decide to release the source for.
You can speed that Tcl snippet up considerably by putting braces around the expressions, e.g., `expr {$n - 1}`. On my system it went from ~22 seconds to ~4 seconds.

Without the braces, the expression gets parsed twice, once as Tcl syntax and once as Tcl `expr` syntax. Luajit is still going to be faster, but Tcl will do better than what you're showing there. (Not bracing expressions is the most common reason by why Tcl code runs slowly.)

In terms of tab-completion, you have to roll your own; and if you're trying to do it in the console, you're going to need to write your own REPL: the standard `tclsh` doesn't even have "readline" editing.

Back when I was doing Tcl regularly, I wrote a Tk "terminal" widget, and all my Tcl/Tk apps had a way to pop it up. Made life much easier.
It's been a long journey, but at the same time, still is the beginning.

That wasn't really the point of the article? The linked original blog post goes into that, but the point of this article was more about better representations and better abstractions in general, not about visual programming vs character based programming. For example, projectional editing can still be used to program in code, but what you're manipulating / storing is not the characters but the AST.

My armchair assessment is that both will have their uses. 80/20 is 3-4x the price, but is lighter and more rigid than EMT conduit. EMT conduit is sold everywhere and will be more useful for quick and dirty setups.

For a machine like a 3d printer, I would choose 80/20. For some lightweight shelves, EMT conduit or wood. So I see this product almost as a wood replacement rather than a 80/20 replacement.
Oof. I can understand why Valve wants to push this forward. But bypassing the existing protocol development just doesn't seem right.

Has Valve made every effort to assist in moving the official protocol forward before resorting to this? Reading the MR comments, the concensus seems to be that any remaining delay in publishing an official protocol is just a lack of maintainer/contributor activity. Seems like a perfect place for Valve to invest some man-hours and get it over the finish line.
Radeon RX 7900 XTX is RDNA3 but I wonder if llama.cpp is using the Vulkan matrix instructions wmma and mfma.

hey, thanks! i should have known that and didn't. i've corrected my comment above since you corrected me so quickly that i could still edit it!

i feel like readline and tab-completion is pretty important to a good command language, and plausibly you want to integrate support for tab-completion into the design of the language itself rather than having to write a separate completer for each command

i'm kind of puzzled why tclsh doesn't have any command-line editing. maybe ousterhout's team was only ever using tclsh in emacs shell-mode or something like your tk terminal? as an exercise, i wrote a basic command-line editor in c in bed on my cellphone the other night. it took me an hour and a half and 120 lines of code (with a very narrow line length to fit onto the cellphone screen), and it supports arrow keys, movement by words, word delete, about a dozen keystroke commands in all, which is most of the ones i use. (though i really need to fix the cbreak handling and handling of wide lines to work reliably.)

tcl is about 200'000 lines of c; there's no reason for tclsh to be missing this

There are good realtors and bad realtors. I could imagine an AI chat bot that was better than some of the mouth breathers out there. But I wouldn't use those people anyway. But there are good people in the real estate business. if you want someone that can negotiate a good deal, and answer complex questions specific to the local laws, who knows the local neighborhood, and the local realtors, who can handle last minute changes and help you buy that house when your approved loan suddenly falls through ... you want someone on your side in those cases. Not some damn chatbot. ( my wife is a realtor)

Now ... an AI powered tool to helped realtors and buyers communicate, schedule, track progress, .... that would be a great application.
> [2] 2x3's are crap everywhere, but the quality on anything bigger goes up immensely at a real lumberyard.

This was once the case, but I've not found it to be true in recent history (in NorCal anyway). Lumberyards are getting 2x4/6/8 stock in roughly the same quality as the big box stores, and the only difference appears to be service and turnover rate.

Covid's effects on the lumber supply chain are lasting - many sawyers and mills have closed, and what's left is produced to meet a price point.

What is the other meaning of fork?

When you click "fork this repo" in GitHub, that clones the repository, and re-publishes it under your username.

When you clone a repo to your system privately, that does not involve publishing. If this is their intended meaning of "fork", then this license must explicitly disallow cloning the repo!
Yea, I’d say most people get it right. It’s not a misspelling that I see often.

Yes, and they opt to sell video games from most anyone who opts in to their store. Fundamentally, that is their business. What you're asking of them is beyond unreasonable because it fundamentally goes against what they do and it would immediately kill their business in its entirety if they stopped selling 99% of games. Then we wouldn't even get Proton and Linux would be truly dead for gaming.

What you're asking of them is akin to complaining that Apple sells tech instead of dishwashers when fundamentally that's so far from what they do that it's absurd, not to mention that if they suddenly stopped selling all tech their business would obviously die. I feel a bit foolish for even entertaining this because what you propose is so obviously outlandish to me that I'm about 85% sure you're just messing around to get a rise out of people.
Word for windows was a port from Mac which was earlier.

However my point was that IBM PC had won by 1986 - all business used that. Anything else was hobbyists only except Macs for publishing.
Speaking as a YC-backed startup founder myself, you should have more confidence in your ideas! But not for the reasons you might think.

It's not that your ideas are good or bad. Most of us have mostly bad ideas. Some of us sometimes have good ideas. But there's really no way to tell if your idea is good or bad until you try. No amount of intellectualizing will give you a trustworthy answer.

We started our business with what seemed (to me and my smart friends) like a great idea. It made tons of sense. I had this whole 48-phase plan for how we'd conquer the world. And then ... it turned out that people didn't really want the thing. The idea was actually bad.

By contrast, the business we're working on now has started to work pretty well. I have to admit, the business didn't make much sense to me at first. I could conjure a million reasons we'd struggle to compete. And then ... when we went to market, the thing started to work. Still early days, but there are lots of positive indications.

My biggest lesson in the last year-and-a-half has been that I just don't know that much :)
I disagree. The world is adding a Manhattan’s worth of buildings to the global building stock every 5-6 weeks or so. It’s insane. The vast majority of those buildings are not being designed by boutique architecture firms… there is definitely a need for better integration of analysis methods for the daylighting, energy usage, and embodied carbon impact of design decisions throughout the design-build process, but especially in early stage design, and especially when operating at scale. But that’s just my 2c
Checking out multiple code editors takes time. Optimizing $99 purchases is sub-optimal for many people. Particularly in the context of professional software development.

Prior to the Aug 17 settlement, Keller Williams said ~65% of home buyers in the US used the first buyer agent that they met.

The quality bar is very low to become a realtor (3 months of online coursework).

Realtor reviews are cooked and completely fake online.

So it is not a big jump to say that the average realtor experience is poor as they are usually driven by a single advertisement or a single Zillow link for most people.

We try to mimic the behavior of the best performing top 1% of realtors and give that experience to all.

Are they seriously so radioactive that the military was afraid of them?
Some are valuable, some do a good job at making themselves seem valuable to you. Our goal is to take what the valuable agents do and make it even better. There are so many places where an agent can add value (search, credits, getting you the best interest rate, doing all the research for you, etc.).

See, I have almost the opposite opinion: it costs more interruption and "life stupidity" to have 7 people stand up, assemble, stop talking about sports, go around the room saying "no blockers," go get a pastry, go back to their desks, unlock their workstations, try to remember what the hell they were trying to do before all that dumbness. All of that to just hear the exact same thing any sane person who gave a shit could have read on a report emailed to them that morning, or -- more common in my experience -- that they would have read in the Mattermost/Slack/Teams/Zulip from the past day

If one wants a status report, fine, have one periodically. But don't vaporize 30 minutes a day times 7 people just to go around the room talking. What a 1950s concept holy shit

I have never in my life met a professional who sits on their hands for 23 hours waiting to say "uh, I have a blocker, but wanted to save it for this magic 15 minutes to ask for help." Yes, fine, n00bs do that, and that's what TFA was saying that interns need supervision, who knew.

The Indian government is extremely duplicitous when it comes to AADHAR. On the one hand they claim it is not mandatory (to comply with the supreme court judgement no this) but on the other hand they make it impossible to get by without AADHAR.

Even private institutions use this duplicity to force AADHAR on everyone.

I think this is a great license as it allows you to download the code, make modifications, create "pull requests", etc, but you are not allowed to compete, or distribute it with a virus baked in.

My babysitter in the late 90’s had a stack of mad magazines (and possibly other humor type competitor mags, like Cracked or Nuts) I would explore.

The one that lives permanently in my head is a bit where they show off a full page cutaway of a house (and possibly wider social infrastructure) designed for every single person being so fat they use mobility scooters to get around, the tone framed of course an an optimistic advancement for society.

That said, I’m not sure if it was MAD or one of the other copycat humor mags. I’ve never been able to find it again in the MAD archives I’ve seen.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forced_abortion#United_Kingdom

> On June 21, 2019, the UK Court of Protection ordered a disabled woman to have an abortion against her will.[18] The woman had a moderate mood disorder and learning disability and under the care of an NHS trust, which argued that she was mentally incompetent and that having a child would worsen her mental health. Justice Nathalie Lieven subsequently approved the forced abortion under the Mental Capacity Act 2005 despite the wishes of herself and her mother.
I guess they mean "fork" in the broader Open Source sense when you fork something to create your own version of it and take it on a different path or do things differently like like NeoVim forked Vim. GitHub uses the term "fork" merely to create a copy of the repo for contributions.
I'm skeptical that there is anything of value communicated in just 15 minutes when you have more than one speaker and without a very specific agenda. At most you're going to get a brief status update, but that is pointless information as it already known by way of the commit log.
Unfair competition is, particularly in California, which interprets it's UCL very broadly.

Let's set aside all other claims (there are others), and take a look at "Unlawful, Unfair, and Fraudulent Business Acts" under that.

We'll also throw out unlawful business acts (I don't see anything unlawful so far).

Unfair:
"An “unfair” business act or practice, as defined by the UCL, is typically committed by either a company or a business competitor. ... In the context of a business competitor, it is considered an unfair business act when the company does something that broadly undermines competition in the marketplace."

Additionally, they consider " immoral, unethical, oppressive, and unscrupulous" business acts to be unfair.

Banners on wp engine sites probably not a good thing under this. Threatening your competitors with bad keynotes unless they pay you, also probably not a great practice.

(I do think you'd be fine to say they suck. I just don't think you can get away with basically extorting them)

Fraudulent:
"The UCL also prohibits “fraudulent” business acts or practices, which means any conduct that misleads or deceives consumers."

Note that it does not have to be defamation, or malice, or illegal. Just misleading or deceptive. More exactly, it does not have the elements of common law fraud - Intent is not a requirement, and negligence can be a violation.

So pure opinions without intent or with negligent intent that actually deceive consumers, while not defamation or common law fraud, are quite possibly a fraudulent business practice.

Overall, I think they have a stronger case than you might. Not on defamation, but on other things.

Regardless of the outcome, the approach i see taken by the Automattic CEO here seems remarkably stupid.

Don't mix your roles unless you want a court to mix your roles.

When he threatens to ban them from wordcamp[1] in what capacity is he doing it in?

1. Which, btw, the central website totally avoids mentioning who is in charge or paying overall anywhere i can find. I hope it's not the foundation (or him or automattic) and he's not mixing roles further while threatening his competitors.
