Initially, I was taking the side of WP.org and Automattic; however, I changed my mind completely once they took over the “Advanced Custom Fields” plugin, and replaced it with another plugin that broke people's websites. So Matt weaponized the WP package repository, and stole the users of a well-maintained package, making WP site admins work over the weekend to fix the breakage.

This isn't opinionated, this is theft.

If the project had been run like this since the beginning, it wouldn't be where it is today. Automattic is a rich company partially due to the community around WordPress, and the trust that community has had in the governance of the project.
It's definitely not "a decade". I have the 2013 Kindle Paper white and it doesn't have that feature without JB, the oldest device supported is Kindle Paperwhite 7th Gen which is released in 2019.

It's likely you are just lucky to buy a KPW with that feature just rolled out.
The offer is setup as a dichotomy but at least in countries with reasonable workplace laws (which perhaps the US isn't) it's a false dichotomy.

There's nothing stopping an employee from simply continuing to disagree with the company direction and also not accepting the offer. In this case, employment goes along as usual and you can continue to disagree with the direction. With proper workplace laws, a company couldn't fire you in this instance, even if you vocally disagree with what is happening.

When an unreasonable choice is attempted to be forced onto you, sometimes the best approach is to ignore it and continue on as usual.
This has gone on for far too long... while I don't use a paid/managed WP on my personal blog, I'm seriously considering dumping WP entirely and writing my own CMS for my personal blog.
Just based on your comment, I can promise you I have payed attention to the conflict less than you and have less of a 'dog in the fight' in terms of supporting a side. I just noticed your comment begging the question regarding mortalities that reflect makeup of a civilian population being the null case in urban warfare that needs no explanation.

It's a positive claim that requires empirical support, which you aren't providing.

A quick squiz would suggest this women+children death toll is the greatest in some time by some margin, despite some quite bloody and urbanised conflicts in recent years [1]. Perhaps you have justified knowledge that this case is different than any other or just better-documented, and the deaths are unavoidable insofar as urban warfare is to be conducted.

But even if it is the case that urban warfare should be expected to be conducted quite inefficiently (to the point that combatants are successfully targeted at a rate barely greater than random members of the population), you are also taking it as a given that conducting it at all is justified and shouldn't be alarming.

That doesn't appear to be a given by military standards of developed countries:

> Destroying an urban area to save it is not an option for commanders. The density of civilian populations in urban areas and the multidimensional nature of the environment make it more likely that even accurate attacks with precision weapons will injure noncombatants.…If collateral damage is likely to be of sufficient magnitude, it may justify avoiding urban operations, which though tactically successful, would run counter to national and strategic objectives.

A FIDO2 credential can be used for passwordless authentication, so long as the authenticator performs user verification (e.g. requires a PIN). This counts as 2FA because it's something you have (the authenticator) plus something you know/are (PIN/biometric).

It can also be used as an second factor for traditional username/password auth (with or without user verification).

Losing a passkey is no different to losing any other credential: you need another method to authenticate or recover your account.

Neutrinos could be distinguished by energy, and also from antineutrinos. There would be an upper bound to the energy that could be detected because at some energy the Sun becomes opaque to neutrinos.

Yes, they are hard to detect, so this is a massive project, not practical right now.

The last point is why there's a caustic. The focal length diverges to infinity as you get to the center; there's a radius where it's at a minimum. This radius will be well within the sun, since the center of the Sun is so much denser than outside the Sun.

The neutrino gravitational focus should be somewhere between the orbits of Uranus and Pluto: https://www.nasa.gov/general/cube-sat-space-flight-test-of-a...
The post as it is now sounds really decent and a step in the right direction. Let's not air all the dirty laundry happening here, it looks like Matt is trying to do the "right" thing here.

Here is the current iteration of that post from Matt:

"I’ve taken this post down. I’ve been attacked so much the past few days; the most vicious, personal, hateful words poisoned my brain, and the original version of this post was mean. I am so sorry. I shouldn’t let this stuff get to me, but it clearly did, and I took it out on DHH, who, while I disagree with him on several points, isn’t the actual villain in this story: it’s WP Engine and Silver Lake."
I can't do that, given that I run an e-shop with a card payment system etc. on Wordpress/WooCommerce. The ecosystem of plugins is just too damn useful.
What a bunch of absolute losers. If it's taught me anything though, it's that you can't underestimate the pathologies of people you encounter 'in the real world'.

Favourite example I heard of this is a manager who would always pay vendors upfront for the whole year, even though there was no discount versus monthly or breaking it into milestones. The money's already paid so higher ups can't stomach canceling his project.
Reading code and documentation with an eink screen is tantalising. I have no interest in lugging around tomes and tomes of manuals anymore. When I was in uni and school I'd regularly lug around 15kg+ of textbooks. I love buying physical books but the freedom and flexibility of having ink-like screens is still a bonus.

Especially for things like reading contracts which I find miserable on a screen

I agree that their is no lack of demand for chips. But the cost of building a brand new fan, or even upgrading one is massive.

Were talking a small market of countries or super massive corporations that could possibly afford to build a fab.

The revenue is that eventually hardware needs to be replaced, and existing fans have to either upgrade or scale horizontally if they want to keep up with market and demands.

Or, future tokens start bundling a bit of flash storage and make this a non-issue. Considering how cheap it is, that ought to be possible even for low-cost tokens.
> Stronger gravity around massive objects causes slow down of the part of a light wave closer to object, compared to outer part.

That only matters in areas with _really_ high fields, this effect is negligible for areas far away from a singularity of a black hole.

Instead, it's really the space that curves. The light does not slow down, it always moves at the speed of light. In the general relativity there is no "gravity field", gravity is a fictitious force.

Edit: also, gravitational lensing applies to massive point-like particles as well. For slow-moving particles and weak fields, it's negligible compared to regular Newtonian orbits, but if a particle moves at a speed that is close to lightspeed, it'll be lensed just like the light.

I doubt Automattic is going to tank any time soon. I’d still bet at least a few employees are pondering certain money in hand today vs being the last one to turn off the lights on the way out. If you thought Matt’s decisions and behavior were disastrous, maybe it’d be better to leave now and get one of the other good jobs while they’re still available.

Defeating Israel is moral imperative. There was no Hamas on 1948 but they massacre people anyway. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deir_Yassin_massacre

> The Deir Yassin massacre took place on April 9, 1948, when Zionist paramilitaries attacked the village of Deir Yassin near Jerusalem, Mandatory Palestine, killing at least 107 Palestinian villagers, including women and children.[1] The attack was conducted primarily by the Irgun and Lehi, who were supported by the Haganah and Palmach.[3] The massacre was carried out despite the village having agreed to a non-aggression pact.

That's because there are not many RISC-V systems out there yet (VisionFive2, MILK-V and Lichee Pi, are there any more?). aarch64, on the other hand, it is hard to pick find one that is does. And as incentives of RISC-V vendors are not going to be different from those of aarch64 vendors, we can assume they will behave similarly.

The author uses Whisper and GPT-4o to get transcriptions into a nicely formatted Markdown file.

Plausibly you can get less cancer by encouraging people to stop smoking, drink less, be less exposured to known carcinogens (either by awareness or regulation). A good healthcare system can also mean you catch cancers early or treat them earlier.

Ah, I see now.

To clarify, while you can enable transcription to see what Ichigo says, Ichigo's design skips directly from audio to speech representations without creating a text transcription of the user’s input. This makes interactions faster but does mean that the user's spoken input isn't transcribed to text.

The flow we use is Speech → Encoder → Speech Representations → LLM → Text → TTS. By skipping the text step, we're able to speed things up and focus on the verbal experience.

Hope this clears things up!

This is an obvious truth around immigration that makes me question the media's motivations.

> There are proper ways to do that, changing the license in a next version

All the projects doing that will soon discover that they were popular mostly because of the Open-Source licensing. Once that changes, the popularity, and goodwill go down, for the simple reason that trust gets breached and forks happen. Open-Source is essentially about the freedom to fork, and that's precisely what happens when governance fails.

Some of them will backtrack on that decision, but it will be too late; like ElasticSearch recently changing again to AGPL, except now the question is why would people choose it over the more trustworthy, open and secure OpenSearch.

There's nothing wrong with building proprietary software, but there is something wrong with pulling a bait-and-switch, betraying your community that invested in your product because of its Open-Source nature.

Matt surely knows that, and also, changing the license of WordPress is probably not possible due to them not having the full copyright. WordPress is not really theirs, despite all their contributions. Which is why this will not end well for Automattic.
It does work, because the companies will realize that gmail no longer delivers their emails and that they need to change their behavior.

Depends on what you mean by "tinkering". I had been on the lookout for a large Ereader from the very early days (i love reading books) and had owned a IRex Iliad and Nexus 10.

I have the Moon Reader Pro+ as my ereader app and with the S Pen you have note-taking capabilities too. Add a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and you have a easy to carry "laptop/tablet/note-taking ereader" for many usecases.
