Generally I agree with what you are saying. I live outside the US and so this stuff from the end 70s / early 80s was very remote. Gladly we had then a well connected university where I got in contact with some of the more interesting stuff mid 80s.

The book I found most useful in the early times as an introduction to Lisp and programming with it was LISP from Winston & Horn. The first edition was from 1981 and the second edition from 1984. I especially liked the third edition.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_(book)

Lisp on microcomputers in the early 80s was mostly not useful - that was my impression. I saw a Lisp for the Apple II, but that was very barebones. Next was Cambridge Lisp (a version of Standard Lisp) on the Atari ST. That was more complete but programming with it was a pain. Still, I found the idea of a very dynamic&expressive programming language and its interactive development style very interesting. The first useful implementations on smaller computers I saw were MacScheme and Coral Lisp, both for the Macintosh, Mid 80s...

There were articles about Lisp in the Byte magazine early on, but having access to the software mentioned was difficult.

The early use cases one heard of were: computer science education, functional programming, generally experimenting with new ideas of writing software, natural language processing, symbolic mathematics, ... This was nothing which would be more attractive to a wider audience. David Betz Xlisp later made Lisp more accessible. Which was then used in AutoCAD as an extension language: AutoLisp.

Luckily I had starting mid 80s access at the university to the incoming stream of new research reports and there were reports about various Lisp related projects, theses, etc.

Unfortunately that pattern negates many benefits of WebAuthN: That recovery code is phishable, can be captured by malware on the client or server etc.
But Microsoft didn't do that. Hardware industry did: ISA PnP, PCI, USB. Those are all hardware standards.

ARM devices are embedded in the SoC. That's basically the definition of a SoC. Intel & co. at that time didn't produce SoCs. A CPU was just a CPU. It didn't have UARTs, GPU, SDHCI, I2c, SPI and other stuff in it.

The only thing x86 (basically Intel, not Microsoft) did good was to standardize I/O addresses like framebuffer, IDE ports, serial I/O and later to make the rest discoverable via ACPI standard (which is a bad standard, btw, and UEFI is far worse).

You may view ACPI as the x86 devicetree. The only difference is that x86 comes with ACPI written in a chip, while ARM firmware is a separate file you add into your bootable image next to the kernel, without the need for a separate EEPROM chip.

You shouldn't be complaining about the ARM device descovery (devicetree), but about the absolute jungle of devices that ARM includes. Just think how many different USB controllers are out there. Each manufacturer designed it's own controller and every ARM chip needs a different driver. On x86 there are/were only 2: Intel (UHCI) and AMD (OHCI), and then they cooperated and made universal EHCI and xHCI.

In this particular case I'm pretty sure the taxi app was completely independent. Nobody actually expected Uber around here (and in fact I've yet to see any), and everyone and their mother added app support for their services. They already had a history of adding new ways of getting a taxi, as and when technology became available. And, and taxis in general are connected to a taxi service central it's easier to come up with such a thing.
Banning new Steam IDs on banned IPs seems too strict to me. Some ISP use CG-NAT or rotate IPs, meaning a single bad actor could harm many innocent players.
I agree that it's hard to get a firm grasp on the "Palestinians" demand. It's hard to get a firm grasp on what "Americans" demand of their government, and as we see every election cycle, there are pretty conflicting demands in a polarized country.

That said, the official representative of the Palestinians did have a chance to negotiate with the Israelis, received a generous offer according to Israelis and many outsider observers, and said no - walked away without a counteroffer.

The standard Israeli feeling is that there simply is no practical way to reach a negotiated peace because of this, especially since Palestinian representatives since that time have less political will and "moral authority" among Palestinians.

(And of course something that Israelis often miss is that Israel has spent 15+ years actively working against peace, so the lack of Palestinian leaders at this stage is at least partially because of Israel!)

I've seen people on Reddit mention QA issues too, but at this stage I'm more suspicious of sock puppets on Reddit than of Boox. Buying from a source where you know you can return and have a guaranteed warrantee period is prudent for any significant purchase. In my country there's a local distributor that offers this.
Cloudflare is a fantastic service with an unmatched value proposition, but it's unfortunately slowly killing web privacy, with 1000s paper cuts.

Another problem is "resist fingerprinting" prevents some canvas processing, and many websites like bluesky, linked in or substack uses canvas to handle image upload, so your images appear to be stripes of pixel.

Then you have mobile apps that just don't run if you don't have a google account, like chatgpt's native app.

I understand why people give up, trying to fight for your privacy is an uphill battle with no end in sight.
> When receiving a credible support of a customer who is in every functional jurisdiction a criminal attacking the public they should act against that customer without a court case.

Do you not realize the level of abuse this opens up? The company has no capacity to do thorough fact finding. They can't subpoena anyone or put them under oath. Trolls will send them complaints with plausible-sounding claims and their only practical options are to execute them without adequately investigating or to ignore them.

The only non-abusive option is to ignore them and leave the law enforcement to law enforcement.

CodeMic demo: beyond screencasts – record and replay inside your IDE
Hi everyone!

I've been working on CodeMic for the past year and put together a demo. I'd love to hear your feedback.

With CodeMic, you can record, replay, and share coding sessions right in your IDE: every click, scroll, selection, and modification synced with guiding video, audio, and image tracks.

I built CodeMic to address a gap: books, blogs, and screencasts fall short when it comes to building projects from scratch or exploring large codebases.

Unlike screencasts, you can pause the session to explore and experiment.

This is as far as I can tell a new concept. It's a more interactive way to learn, document, and share complex projects.

I'd love to know what you think.

Currently its (uranium-235) quite easy to find because the demand isn't really that high, but when the demand for nuclear power gets higher I'm sure we will see more seawater extraction / & breeders that use the much more plentiful uranium-238 or thorium-232

> A single training session will iterate more than the number of generations of all birds.

But that's not the right analogy. Evolution happens at the individual level, and even to some extent at the individual gamete level. So it's actually every single fecundated bird egg that ever existed, and even every single spermatozoon and egg cell every time two birds mated. Not to mention every division of every bacterial cell in every bird gut, since microflora are a key part of the organism too.

And even this is an undercount, since the DNA and gene expression of an individual actually changes during its lifetime, and those changes can be passed down to offspring through various mechanisms. So there is a constant process of evolution that even all cells inside a living organism go through, that we're still trying to fully understand.
> This position aligns with Arabs, who don't want a Jewish state in the Middle East. Hamas says it directly; others are not so direct, but one can infer their position through their actions.

Let's just put things into perspective here - Egypt and Jordan, both Arab countries, have had peaceful relations with Israel for decades. Saudi Arabia was probably very close to signing a deal with Israel as well - an offer that might even still be on the table, if the war ends.

I don't think it's accurate to say that "Arabs don't want a Jewish state in the Middle East". Not anymore.

And I don't think it matters particularly what "supporters of Palestinians" want, it matters what the people in actual power making the decisions want and do.

That's not a hack. Customer support just doesn't want to argue with people who are likely to get belligerent. You can get a lot of stuff for free just by throwing a tantrum, but is that really who you want to be?

Specifically, whitelisting the URL for the bot protection, but not the cache, so that you are still somewhat protected against adversarial use.
iirc even if you're listed as a "good bot" with Cloudflare, high security settings by the CF user can still result in 403s.

No idea if CF already does this, but allowing users to generate access tokens for 3rd party services would be another way of easing access alongside their apparent URL and IP whitelisting.

Paying back a loan is spending but taking a loan is income and taken as individual might award you tax credit.

But yes, if you use a service, you pay for tax. Even a service of renting some capital.

Again, as a poor person you can get tax credits on your income or just because you are alive that offsets that if the government thinks poor people buying things with loans is societally beneficial or not. Today government does this by raising or lowering the rates which affect so many other things in the economy.

Fine grained control is better.

And what's wrong with double taxation? If you earn money today, you pay income tax, and use it to buy fuel then you also pay VAT and excuse tax. That's triple tax on the same money. Spend your money in societally undesired ways and you are getting it taxed multiple times even today. But just with a myriad opaque systems that don't play nice with each other and are full of loopholes.
It was because of the bad things I read about warranty/support that I bought my Note Air 3 on Amazon. I paid a bit more but at least I knew I could return it easily if there was an issue.
Note that purchasing on Amazon and compensating the author are actually separate categories - if you mail the author the RRP in cash, then they get far more than they would have if you'd bought off Amazon.

In fact, if everyone used a shadow library but mailed the author cash, then Amazon would go bankrupt but the authors would be fine (and wouldn't need to use Amazon in the first place).
Heterogeneous SLI vs. Homogeneous SLI
> A two-state solution is a fever dream if the occupier is uninterested in it. We’ve seen that repeatedly for the past 75+ years in actions and literal words.

First, the Palestinian territories have not been under occupation for 75 years.

Second, there was a real effort at arriving at a two state solution made by Israel. It's often debated who is "at fault" for no solution having been reached, but without rehashing it - I think it's simply false to say that "the occupier is uninterested in a two-state solution. Not when Israelis elected politicians multiple times over 15 years to seek such a solution, not when Israeli politicians multiple time reached compromises with the Palestinians.

Btw, I think both sides often claim, falsely, that the other side is incapable of compromise - I think it's important to keep pointing out that this is false and that actual meaningful steps towards peace have been achieved. Especially outsiders should be looking at this broad perspective, and not play up the "one side is inherently unreasonable" argument, which is never true.
It's a swedish thing.
Core Data is tricky to use properly to the point that I avoid it in all new projects and opt for GRDB, sqlite or json files instead. Core Data is one of the few technologies that once I learned it well, I disliked it even more. Putting a half-baked, leaky abstraction on top of it really doesn’t appeal to me. It’s also best to avoid any new developer tech from Apple for about 2-3 versions.

If most of that debt was an investment on energy transition, education, research, we'd be absolutely fine. But from what I gathered it's mostly QE that ends up as extra dividends.
Yeah that sounded like a very bad idea. It was already a bad idea years ago when there were enough IPv4 addresses, because still people were using NAT behind routers. So, it could happen that you just ban a whole family or people that are living together in the same flat, although only one of them cheated. But now, with this whole carrier grade NATting, it seems like not only a bad, but a dysfunctional idea.

There is no objective definition of fairness.

That’s your definition

By your definition if someone works 40 hours, after taxes they should have the same amount as someone who worked 20 hours.

That doesn’t seem fair to me

This says more about the average car buyer in the US than anything else to be honest.
Israel actually didn't do that - Netanyahu literally said "this is not another skirmish, this is a war" and gave explicit goals to the war (bringing back the hostages and dismantling Hamas). Later on an additional goal was added - allowing the return of Israeli internal refugees to their homes in the North.

> Urban conflict in general produces civilian casualties with women, men, and children dying in proportions matching the demographics.

You are begging the question still. Citation needed.

> In the Russia-vs-Ukraine war there are relatively few dead children because the demographics of both counties skews towards adults — not because of the military doctrine of either side. Children make up less than 20% of the population and hence less than 20% of the civilian deaths.

That dog won't hunt. ~58k Ukranian soldiers killed + 12k civilians = 70k total [1]. 633 Ukrainian children killed [2]. 20% of the population is children but they make up < 1% or those directly killed in the conflict. You will probably take issue with the degree of urbanisation etc., but it was your example.

> Fifty percent of civilian deaths are children not because Israel is targeting children (as if they were cartoon villains!)

I suggest you are strawmanning the argument here — I don't think Israel is actively targeting children is an accurate representation of the concerned 'side' overall (I'm sure you can find a tweet making it). But it is plain their actions are pretty indiscriminate wrt the combatant:civilian kill ratio.

> they just a normal amount of evil.

You haven't supported this claim, and its a considerable leap from 'Gaza has a pyramid-shaped age structure'. Yet, there is data available on recent urbanised conflicts and what the 'normal amount' is.

The regulatory universe that banks operate in means that they're not like other companies. They don't share the same overall incentives, and aren't a useful point of comparison.
You're suppose to place dish offset from centre for better heating, imo makes big difference. Of course you're already doing that by stuffing containers off centre, but spinning turntable + right power levels (instead of just nuking 100%) makes big difference for reheating. I have breville 3in1, you can turn off the turntable rotation.

Another comment mentioned commercial microwaves, especially larger ones with multiple magenetrons so need to spin. But they're loud. But easier to clean.

You don't have to personally perpetrate or even succeed to be genocidal right? If your intention is "drive out the natives and eradicate them because they're pests unless enslaved" that's genocidal.
One thing to note is that CSGO can be considered a play-to-earn type game; you play the game, get lootboxes, get lucky, sell the item for... idk, hundreds? thousands? So it's an incentive to cheat and buy new copies of the game if found out. A single item can be a month's income easily.

Mind you I don't know if that's the case on privately hosted servers as well, since those could be manipulated to give players the points needed to get the lootboxes.

Yes, exactly. Resident keys take up storage space. This article that was updated 5 months ago says that the most recent yubikey can support up to 100 discoverable credentials: https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013790319-Ho... That might sound like a lot, but given that we want to achieve a migration to passwordless across the internet, you will quickly run out of storage space if every shop on the internet wants a dedicated keypair on your device.

Non-resident keys are so much better, because you won't need to worry about this limitation.

FYI I disagree that this necessarily means that in Gaza.

Israel has spent 18 years fairly convinced that Hamas isn't a major threat and that Hezbollah is, so most resources were spent on preparing for war with Hezbollah. This is maybe even mostly correct.

That means Israel was far more prepared to attack Hezbollah, and it shows.

If the US were ever attacked by Russia, it has battle plans in place. If it were attacked by Argentina, I don't think it has nearly as many plans/assets/intelligence/etc. So a counterattack on Argentina would have to look very different.

(Though of course this mostly explains the initial response, and as you say, is far less convincing one year in!)
