I think the author is confused. The previous "basic tier" is actually the "lite" tier. The prices are the same, but the number of "free" MAUs is reduced. The "advanced" and "essentials" tier include what seems to be new or expanded features like fully customizable logins and passwordless login options, so you have to pay more to access these features, but it looks like everything Cognito previously provided is in the "lite" tier.

Kind of. Can you use the interim state fork (original plus changes, not yet committed into a new immutable) as a "readable" type, the union of mutable and immutable variants? That would resolve choice dilemmas like the decision between mutable and immutable builders: keep the mutable where it is only used by the creating thread, materialise into an immutable when it needs to cross thread boundaries, fork where a thread needs to adapt a little and have all consumers typed to the readable version so that they can work with either, without requiring a new immutable.
When I turned in a modem and set-top box to Comcast, they just chucked it into a bin behind the desk and said that was it. No scanning or otherwise recording any of it. I demanded they fish it all back out so they could write me up a receipt, because I don't trust those bastards to claim I never returned that stuff.

To the workers credit, he did do that. Albeit with an incredible eyeroll.

In Guix at least (I assume also nix) you can build things from source with a verified hash. I.e. write a numpy package definition that says download the Numpy source from this URL, and expect its hash to be equal to this string. You could then depend on that package from another package ensuring it uses a numpy built from that bit-for-bit exact source tree. Does that not amount to the same thing as what you want?

Regarding sandboxing - everything WebAssembly is heavily sandboxed already, and requires cross-origin isolation in the browser, so we can use SharedArrayBuffers.

So that's likely no worse than running LibreOffice containerized on a server.

I have driven a number of level 2 cars on the motorway and almost all of them can do extended zero-intervention driving, but that does not make them safe. The failure rate compared to humans is still sky high.

Multiple independent FSD tests have shown that you need to take over several times an hour to avoid dangerous or illegal situations <https://electrek.co/2024/09/26/tesla-full-self-driving-third...>. The number will be lower on a motorway and you will sometimes have time to correct even if you are not looking, but the number of failures is still significant. If you take your eyes off the road, it is only a matter of time before you end up in a ditch.

I stand by my statement. The system is _never_ trustworthy enough to take your eyes off the road.

Lots of ISPs (at least the Bell and Telus rebrands) are now doing remote-managed “home hubs” with integrated wifi that can be remote managed by the ISP. This solves the call-out problem and also fixes user expectations — and they’re leased not sold, so they can actually be good wifi devices.

I don’t personally use them, because “ISP managed wifi” sounds like a bad idea to me, but I can see the value to people who can’t distinguish the above two terms.

Unfortunately it seems their proof already had the Pythagorean Theorem embedded within its implicit assumptions - they define measure of an angle through rotation of a circle. They don't explicitly define circle, but from their diagram they hint at the "understood" definition, namely a set of points equidistance from a central point, while using Euclidean distance as the metric.
The people who “do agile right” are out there. Just, like the agile manifesto says, they’re authoring their own processes. And because of that, they don’t have to call it agile - or really call it anything. They just go into work, figure out what needs doing, and take responsibility and do it.

I’ve worked in plenty of teams that did this sort of thing. All different. And at different scales - startups to big tech to game jams.

Potentially there could no noticable health improvements but potentially far less health degradation over time when you think about things like risk of type-2 diabetes with high sugar and high-UPF diets.

But it's true that we mustn't focus only on UPFs but it is looking more and more like a significant factor (even if the definitions could be improved).
Why on earth do they include the word "ultra" when the definition is "literally any amount of any additive"?

Funny enough, I inherited an MSI notebook that wasn't working to my parents' satisfaction (no idea why they bought it, their use case is pretty basic), installed Linux on it and it's actually a really great laptop (apart from the battery life lol). Great performance , lots of ram, nice screen, nice body, everything works (even touchscreen, stylus and fingerprint sensor). But free is free, for $3k of my own money I'd buy a Lunar Lake or Strix Point laptop and save some $$$.
I'm not sure that it matters. The major video distributors will not agree to distribute your videos if they have a restrictive license attached since they're exactly the players that want to train AI on those videos.

You'd have to create a legally binding license for media and then also build out a distribution network for it.

And even then, I don't think you would prevent AI from being trained on the videos. The players involved are either big enough to violate the law and ask forgiveness after the fact or in countries where US IP law matters very little.
I was just saying that the vehicle is commercially available, not that it was a better option for the US Postal Service. But $83,000 is the retail price. Anyone buying in bulk will get them for significantly cheaper. The $60k for the NGDV is the discounted price for a bulk buy of 50,000, and it's for a mix of ICE and EVs. The ICE vehicles are significantly cheaper to manufacture, so the EV price is probably close to the Rivian's bulk price, and the Rivian has significantly greater capabilities.

> This seems to be what's often called the "flipped classroom" approach.

A flipped classroom falls short of tutorial instruction. Often, it's just recorded lessons presented outside school time to leave more time for using the classroom in other ways.

Homework in conventional primary classrooms is not helpful and may be harmful, and as best as I can tell, this includes flipped lessons and textbook readings. We've got a pretty big mountain of data accumulating on this topic.

I'm trying to flip some topics in AP Microeconomics and it's really hard to do in an effective way.

Actually: I find in AP Micro I am doing things much closer to how you describe, because I'm micro-optimizing for (students doing well on the AP Micro exam) instead of (producing students that I feel understand economics in a generally useful way).

> "quick feedback" features of DI

I think pretty much everyone agrees quick feedback and measurement is valuable. Having one clean expected answer that the class says together is one way to get this, and I guess it's perhaps the one that requires the lowest instructor skill and thus is most repeatable.

But I would say, for example, that Khan Academy does it much better-- pacing things to each student, providing individualized feedback, supporting spacing effects through mastery challenges, and allowing questions whose responses would not be said the same by all students. It's trickier, though: you need to stand in the back of class to tamp down on device misuse. And in the end students do work in exchange for recognition from their instructor in a well-functioning classroom, which is hard to get if they're spending most of their time trying to please a computer.

> If I eat 1000 calories of whole oats, a lot of those calories are passing through my body.

Humans are extremely efficient at extracting energy from food, regardless of the fiber content. We owe our survival as a species to it, as food was much less plentiful in the ancestral environment.

I've heard of fiber meaningfully affecting insulin response to food, satiety, and some other things - perhaps even gut microbiomes - but not metabolic efficiency.
In C/C++ you could argue that's the case too. What's your point? My point is that fixing those bugs still costs time. It's come down in price as tooling has gotten better but the problems of a null reference remain as relevant today in languages that still use them.
Only someone who has the keys can display the cleartext. I don't think any forge has support for that and it don't see the use case for first encrypting and then giving the key to the forge.

I store only secrets in encrypted form, so I never had to merge anything. But I'd assume merging should be unaffected because it happens in the work area, i.e. in decrypted form. That it's a different storage format in the repo should not matter.
Super cool. I would have liked to have seen a similar visualisation for how they solved it on the Sierpinski gasket.

Cool, but what I'd really like to see is a decent feed filter. Maybe something AI/LLM backed, because I already use custom RSS feeds but it doesn't catch all the topics I want, so I end up visiting the main feed anyway.

I found https://www.myhackernews.ai/, but I don't want to pay for it, especially when I've already got OpenAI tokens.

Maybe I should just whip up a simple python script or something that can filter the feed via GPT-o1-mini, maybe pipe it to some self-hosted RSS feed aggregator so that I can read on my phone as well...

It’s impressive but even more interesting, it could still be faster! Java is JIT at #3, so theoretically any of these languages could get there.
I might be misinterpreting Leibniz’s central argument, but doesn’t the idea of the best of all possible worlds not depend on how humans (or any kind of life really) perceive it? This is similar to the idea that an unaligned AI agent could get its own idea of “best world”.

Also, I get the impression that in modern times, people fall away from religion because they can’t explain why God allows evil in a satisfactory way. But in the distant historical past, they were more motivated to reason or figure out why God intentionally causes evil things to happen.
I think the big moat will be AI assistants that can accumulate long term individualized rapport and context with its user(s). Suppliers will need to be able to update their customer's assistants capabilities, without restarting/disrupting that valuable and growing knowledge.

The same relationship familiarity/fluency lock-in advantage of human personal assistants.
This could be easily summed up with a public poll with one question, "Would you switch ISP if you had a better option?"

My thought is somewhere around 98% would say yes, if not 99 and some points.

I had this happen with Verizon, I insisted on a receipt, which they handwrote for me. Then they told me I never returned the device and charged me!

You're speculating that a US president has a relatively average intelligence - why are you assuming that? The top job in a democracy is generally one of the most competitive positions in the world and US presidents are typically exceptional in multiple different ways. It'd be really surprising to have a US president with an IQ below something like 120 and I'd personally be assuming >140 for the average. As far as I can see a 140 IQ is around the 0.1-1% mark, it isn't that rare compared to presidents (<0.01%).

It’s awesome just how fast and accurate they can be, and most devs were of my mindset “wow can I learn to type like that - it woukd solve this problem and that”

Till we found out just how much work is needed to get good. It’s a true skill, and sadly undervalued but something that just has too little pro for the cons - in my opinion as a developer.

I already type at faster than I can code, and slightly slower than I can write English. A better keyboard, or the same keyboard at different workstations and laptops, or some typing tutorials woukd help me - but full on 100wpm is not going to help me debug Kerberos failures
I mean... yes? "we no longer support these" devices were hit with critical vulnerabilities, and that'll never get patched, just like any other device that hit EOL.
