Interestingly this changed somewhat with the clickbait-based model – now, I would disagree that advertisers "want, more generally, to avoid programs with serious complexities and disturbing controversies."

I think this does describe legacy advertisers (and TikTok, for different reasons) – we might remember Tumblr's hyper-specific LGBTQ-friendly (often NSFW) communities being completely liquidated in the transfer of Tumblr to Verizon, arguably killing Tumblr on that date. Verizon's handling of Tumblr validates Chomsky.

But ad-fueled journalism seems to operate from exactly the opposite principle, so long as the controversies that drive engagement do not threaten the sensibility of specific large funders. I've seen a few times in recent memory where an article from the New York Times aired something quite sensational, only to quietly update later that what was initially reported didn't quite occur as depicted. But by that point it is too late, and profit was made.

The overall point still stands – that ad-based always results in a conflict of interest.
Looking at this thread, it is a wonder that any PRs make it through review. I started calling these kinds of debates Holographic Problems.

I tried smoking multiple times and never had any good reaction. It's weird to me why people smoke. Is my chemistry differs from others? I even used to smoke for two years once, just for "community" because people I hanged out at time were smokers. For me cigarettes are just weird thing producing smoke. I learned to swallow it and not blew out my lungs, but I never found any amusement with this thing and dropped it eventually.
IMO embrace low frame rate. Better energy use if its AI based on the first place (cheaper, environment... more cycles for fancier effecs) THEN pair that with e-ink display (also good energy use), I'd go for old school charcoal style but color e-ink is a thing. e-ink with some additional effects could resemble a physical paper moreso then a LCD/LED and so would be less obnoxious in the darkness of night... AND this also could be a low key security camera.

Japan has no particular restrictions on exporting used cars but US does for importing cars younger than 25 years old, famously lobbied by Mercedes to block parallel third party imports of their entry level products from cannibalizing American sales.

Europe do not have that particular import restriction, and if someone wanted to personally import and register a brand new wheeled fuel drum with appropriate paperwork, they can.

The stocks are not down so much today (Thursday the 24th), not beyond the general jitters the market's had of late. But the fact is, this wasn't really the triggering of mutual self-destruction. More likely than not, Qualcomm will be able to negotiate somewhere between their higher and lower rates with the Nuvia chips providing the axis around which the debate will turn.
Ultimately, I thing, the re-negotiated terms will benefit Qualcomm, as I don't see them getting worse. But how long the litigation will take and how hard ARM can negotiate with Qualcomm is anyone's guess.
For something better than a wild guess, we can look at how Qualcomm handled their modem litigation with Apple. Qualcomm couldn't recognize a lot of revenue and therefore profits for many years due to Apple withholding payments
https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/1/18525962/qualcomm-apple-se...
In the end, Qualcommm received a multi-billion dollar lump sum payment AND Apple signed a long-term deal (this was back in 2019, so). Something Apple is still trying to get away from, by the way.
I don't think ARM has the financial firepower to withstand a trial as long as Apple did, which took multiple years - but even that Qualcomm may deem temporary given where they are now.
The negotiations have begun, I'm not sure I would read any further into this move by ARM.
As for the reputational hit against ARM, well, that is hard to measure, for me at least. But it's an interesting thought. I feel like the relationship between ARM and its customers are something like TSMC's foundry business. I can't imagine TSMC even threatening to stop manufacturing the chips of Qualcomm. But TSMC's other customers prob wouldn't blink. And neither might ARM's.
Oddly enough, the most beneficial thing I have is my Twitter account, because I can often DM airlines or companies support (like fedex support) for quicker responses.
Class actions can include people just by describing who makes up the class, that’s why the parties who worked on the proposed settlement came up with the plan. This method (uniquely) allowed settling with (essentially negotiating a deal with) all those unknown parties, a feat impossible otherwise.

The class as I understand it was the copyright holders of every book in a library, and if approved by the court they can all be legally said to have agreed to the settlement’s terms if they didn’t opt out. Now as with anything legal the whole thing depends on someone’s interpretation of whether it’s ok, but this was a plausible reading of Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

One could file a class action suit on behalf of everyone who ordered a strawberry shake at a McDonald’s in 2023, without ever knowing who or exactly how many they are, and if a judge certified it as a class action and McDonalds cut a deal with those representing the class, the terms would bind them all (except those who explicitly excluded themselves).

> Of course all your commits need to compile and pass tests.

> It didn't even occur to me that anybody would permit that in their CI.

How do you enforce it? Are you saying you make your CI compile and run tests for every single commit on a feature branch before allowing it to be merged? That takes a lot of time if you're doing the kind of small commits that make bisection most effective.

> Of course every non-building commit will make bisecting a merge history a pain even more, not sure why you think it to be better with merges than with linear history.

Because with rebase you're much more likely to get a long chain of commits that don't compile. E.g. imagine developer A adds a new feature and starts off by writing some code that calls some function, and meanwhile developer B renames that function in master. Then a while later developer A rebases onto master, fixes their compilation errors, and merges their feature branch in. All of the commits A did in between now don't compile, so you will "git bisect skip" all of them, and if your bisect lands somewhere in that chain of commits you have to do another round of bisection manually or something.

With merge, all of A's commits still compile and you can bisect through to the specific commit that caused the problem. (Maybe one or two isolated commits don't compile because they were never tested on CI, sure, but that's ok - git bisect skip handles them, it's only a problem if you have a long chain of non-compiling commits)
I feel like it's not the RAT you'll notice from inside the plane, it will be the silence from the engines. That combined with at least a momentary flicker of the lighting (I'm not sure if a RAT on a 787 will run cabin lighting but I doubt it), and you'll know.
It's very hard for me to find fault with this. It seems to be extremely well put together, at least at a high level.

But I like to be critical, so I will go outside the stated scope a bit. The national security aspect of AI seems to go hand-in-hand with integration of drones and robotics. Because you won't have useful robots or drones until they are fully integrated with AI.

Assuming that cost-effectiveness and scale are actually concerns in manufacturing of military assets, China seems to have a significant edge as far as small drones and humanoid or animal-like robots.

Stepping back, the best solutions in my mind would involve somehow intellectually and practically reconciling the differing philosophies, cultures, and political systems, without first requiring mass scale destruction and casualties that force one group to capitulate for survival.

I'm not sure if that has historically ever occurred or could occur. But one might hope (probably as a fantasy) that somehow truly intelligent and general purpose AIs would be able to successfully convince their human clients in the military to skip the part where tens or hundreds of millions of humans work in earnest to successfully kill many millions of citizens from the other group.

I'd like to think optimistically that dramatically increasing energy availability could help lower global security tensions. So although I am honestly suspicious of Sam Altman's veracity and methods sometimes, I think his fusion plans are a great idea, and I really want to believe that they will pan out.

This is the sort of failure I've seen, where people think their passwords are synced but because they didn't sign in years ago it's actually not backed up at all. At least on Chrome you get reminded of that all the time on YouTube/Google search, etc.

I know for Safari all the sync is via iCloud meaning if you're not signed in it's locally stored and vulnerable in that way. Especially as many people can't/don't sign in to their own iCloud on work computers, or don't have a Mac.

Has the US asked for a base? They do have Site 512, not a typical base but still a base.

In many ways Israel does the US' dirty work, like crippling Hezbollah which is responsible for numerous attacks against US (and other Western) personnel.

The Houthis are squarely to blame for the disruption of Red Sea shipping; Israel's military operation in a different country isn't a legitimate reason to attack (almost) random ships.

You're not addressing the most difficult point. The UN has failed spectacularly in their one single mission while giving cover to terrorists. You might disagree with Israel's response, but the scandal is with the UN. How is it possible that Hezbollah operated unimpeded for decades (e.g that Hezbollah dug a bunker tunnel mere 100 meters from a UN observation post)?

Frankly, I think Israel's reaction is way overdue. 40 years of Hezbollah firing rockets while the "peace keepers" sit on their thumbs. Facilitate terrorism, get the stick.

As I see it, UN at least is documenting everything as it happens to its members. Hopefully it can be kept unbiased for a long time. If you start kicking left and right, there will be no UN to overlook events.

Using 'n-t' as an insult perpetuates pseudoscientific mental health labels created to used to institutionalize women (particularly women of color) for simply speaking up or challenging authority.

'i--t' is a weaponized clinical term from the eugenics movement of the early 20th century, where IQ tests were used to justify forced sterilization of BIPOC individuals and women with mental health conditions being disproportionately targeted.

I know your goal is to "be mean" to a relative who isn't here(?), but it actually helps your case of not looking like a fascist when you DON'T pick terms coined by actual fascists used to oppress marginalized communities.

I think you’re missing the point here. The only reason the U.S. cares about Hezbollah is because they attack Israel. The only reason Hezbollah exists is because of Israel. The reason the Houthis are attacking shipping is because the U.S. supports Israel. Being an ally to Israel has imposed huge costs on the U.S. and virtually no benefits.

Many in the U.S. feel that protecting Israel is a moral cause, but it is undeniably a strategic albatross for us.

There was a big crisis in the Spring of 43.

The US government realized they needed people to staff munitions factories more than they needed fresh recruits.

So the US government abolished voluntary enlistment, drafted new recruits, and told everyone else to get a job.

It did not go over well. People don’t like being told there is a crisis, but they should “stay home and do nothing.” Even if “do nothing” is building tanks.

So the government wisely fudged. The Coast Guard and Merchant Marine began recruiting. Paramilitary agencies were created. Proganda began pushing the importance of the “common man.”

People in the 1940s didn’t like being told to stay home and “mask up” any more than we do.
> This is about a language construct (&& and ||) that I would argue is terrible and should never be used.

Something tells me you'd hate my five-line implementation of the standard library function fgets in C.

char *fgets(char *buf, size_t n, FILE *fp) {
char *p = buf;
int c = 0;
while (n > 1 && (c = getc(fp)) != EOF && (*p++ = c) != '\n')
n--;
return n > 0 && (c != EOF || feof(fp) && p != buf) ? *p = '\0', buf : 0;
}

I'm joking; I'd never write code this way in earnest.

This is a nice visualizer for the time series data. I am constantly annoyed by the zoom in/out feature because it apparently doesn't allow display of all longitudes from dateline to dateline, left to right. There appears to be a stripe of missing longitudes that one is only able to see if they zoom out one level so that large sections of the globe are repeated. This is not a complaint that is unique to this display, it is very common.

After pointing out that annoyance I hate to mention too that the data could use some cleaning of duplicate entries related to slight differences in focal locations.

One set of triplicates that demonstrates this is located east of Greenland and is visible when parameters are set to display >6.5 magnitude quakes. The event is a 6.8 quake which occurs on 11/8/2018 at 7:49:40 pm UTC for an event at 10 km depth and there are three locations for the same event (one of them has a time stamp two seconds earlier but is unlikely to be a different event of the same magnitude).

I suspect that the display uses information from multiple sources that have not been cleaned for duplicates. I believe it would be difficult to identify all instances of duplication in a dataset like this for quakes of lower magnitudes especially.

Anyway, I like it but I did stumble on or against a couple of things that I thought noteworthy.

Good job overall, the easy part is done and it works and is a useful display.
