It's not insane in the least. I try to always make a point of observing the ecliptic when I travel, it creates a wonderful interconnectedness to places all over the planet. There are going to be some lovely conjunctions in the next few months that will provide a great opportunity to share this with people. It's actually pretty intuitive when there are 3 or 4 visible planets in a row once someone points it out.

It's a server feature and might be unique to Ergo. It's a per-user setting (with a global default) and when it's on the user always appears to be online so you can type at them any time like you would with other DM systems. The v3 chathistory support ensures that they don't miss messages. For clients that don't support chathistory the server can replay any unseen messages.

It's a lot like what bouncers provide but integrated and very easy to enable for everybody so no extra steps required for my users.
To be fair, one would use more than 6 steps with the original Hunyuan model, so perhaps that’s why they’re so blurry. But that’s even slower.
Which brings me to a question: I'm not entirely clear on the relationship between and capabilities of Sam and Acme.

Is the ability of Vis to select all instances of a regex and edit them all at once afterwards interactively (see e.g. https://asciinema.org/a/41361) Vis's own idea, or was it part of Acme? Is it part of Ad?
Maybe it should be different based on the type of the creative work. Movies will be fine with 3 years, music albums maybe 5-10, books maybe yes, even 30, and software (including games) let's say 10 years after release or 5 years after that particular version was last offered for sale, whichever comes first. My idea with this is that it should strike the balance between fairly compensating the author for their work and preventing the gross abuse of copyright we're currently seeing from major entertainment companies. For software, the goal is also to eliminate that whole "abandonware" grey zone that currently exists.
Hell, I went straight for 20k/mo (average) with my SaaS.

The key is providing a good value proposition. My software would save my customers more than they would spend on it yearly, while outsourcing $50-300k/year in salary worth of work that previously had to be done in internally (usually incorrectly).

You always need to solve an actual business problem that people are willing to pay to fix.
I'm guessing this is for service providers and not identity providers. Just a suggestion, but that could be more clear in the description.
Some of this is quite revisionist. Intel didn't learn from 8086 mistakes when they designed the 386. They had an order of magnitude more transistors to play with which allowed them to implement features that weren't achievable in the 8086 time frame (1976).

If they learned from mistakes it was from the iAPX432.

At some point if I transition to FAANG/something closer to my ideal, I'd definitely like to grind so I doubt I would have time for much outside of work.

If you want to make that transition, you're gonna be competing with people who work hard from day 1, and not just when it's time to make the jump to FAANG. It's really hard to beat people who put in the time for their craft, in the long-run

How does WLB change over time for most people?

I think for a lot of people, they tend to have the fewest commitments immediately out of college. Life responsibilities tend to pile up as you get older, which makes it nice to have "banked" a bunch of good will, hard work, and connections from earlier in your career
Blocking JavaScript in Chromium-based browsers using HTTP response headers (2014)
The motivation there is money and time, not an aversion to labor.

Imagine any job paid as much as software. What would you do? For many of us the answer would be far more labor intensive - I prefer construction a million iin times over software, but software pays a million times better.

So our economic system coerces us into these sort of broadly sedentary behaviors, because that's where the money is.
> but calling it -- with bash ./dline -a on MacOS X -- I get plenty of syntax errors.

Is that the ancient system version of bash? I'd try with a current version and see if that works.
It's somewhat fair though. If there's a case that would cause errors for the system and it's a case that you're not supposed to handle, then a 400 error sounds perfect for that case. For example, if you have a service and it panics/returns 500 when you pass in an empty user id, then you could instead return a 400 before you hit the panic and all is good.
> Is the goal to be able to change a design token and see that change reflected across all your various UIs?

That's exactly it! (with various degrees of immediacy: depending on the tooling it can be in real time, or deferred via a PR for example)

> How do you ensure people remember to use the design token instead of hardcoding the value?

A combination of great docs, education (onboarding, training), autocomplete, and linting. In design tools, it's baked in to the UI so adoption is less of a problem.

> Won’t you still have to check every nook and cranny of the UI to make sure the change doesn’t break anything?

Yes, and that's where visual regression testing comes in and proves valuable to not just developers, but also designers.
Possibly. I'm not sure why it should require switching to an entirely different protocol though; my point is that making an API that only uses POST and always returns 200 is something that already works in HTTP though, and I have trouble understanding why that isn't enough for pretty much everything.

OS/2 looked more modern than Win3.1 because, well, it was newer, but also because of the increased use of "gray 3D slab" style which meant modern at the time (see OSF/Motif).

But the design language was less uniform in OS/2 despite that it was based on Presentation Manager standard like Win3.1. The generous use of colors in OS/2 made it look like a kindergarten scrapbook, rather than a serious desktop OS. Maybe, they thought people would find it friendlier that way, and it might have even looked friendlier.

Yet, Win95 looked way more professional than OS/2 because the design language (fonts, conservative color use in UI elements and more incorporation of gray 3D style in the UI) was simply more elegant. That was mostly because of the influence of NeXTSTEP in the design of Win95 though, so thanks, Steve Jobs, I guess? :)

Not to mention completely innovative paradigms in Win95 like "Start" menu and taskbar which made it to 2024 and became the de-facto standard of desktop UX.

Problem:

Chromebook owner prefers ChromeOS in "guest mode" and does not sync personal data to Google servers. There is no longer a way to globally disable Javascript from within Chrome. (For the guest, the filesystem from which Chrome runs is read-only.) Further, "site settings" cannot be exported from or imported into Chrome.

Solution:

Forward proxy configuration with global or site-specific CSP response header inclusion, can be easily saved on read/write filesystem and transferred from one Chrome install or Chromebook to the next.
I recently used Premagic at a small networking dinner, and honestly, it was surprisingly effective. The real-time photo-sharing feature helped break the ice and made it easier to remember who I’d met. What stood out, though, was the visual networking aspect—being able to tap into attendee details afterward was super handy. For a casual dinner, where connections are more personal and less transactional, it really added a layer of value I didn’t expect.

This is coming into my work life with web accessibility: The DoJ published a rulemaking in April that filled the many, many gaps in the existing law that determines if the government is violating the ADA when creating websites, etc.

What came before this was at least 15 years of tort action, a patchwork of civil rulings across a wide variety of jurisdictions, and generally, confusion and ambiguity. Not the stuff of efficient government.

From my perspective, this rulemaking is pretty close to ideal. I did not dream of getting such a clear, detailed direction from a federal agency. I think my jaw may have literally dropped as I read through it. I think the web accessibility is an interesting example, because it's not a bloated bureaucracy harassing some fishermen, it's an agency trying to prevent the government from violating your civil rights.

So, is the idea that Congress would have accomplished this instead? I just can't imagine that happening.
I literally just copied and pasted that exact part into my notes. Something about "versus doing nothing" really hits hard. I can do more than nothing! And also, sometimes, I need grace and time.
Yes I periodically try to get scanned images of Medieval Latin and Hebrew books ocr’d and translated by Gemini and ChatGPT… sometimes the results are amazing, but you have to proofread it all because they occasionally go off the rails. They will either skip sentences, or start regurgitating sentences from another similar text that they must have been trained on. Sometimes, after helping me with several pages, Gemini will suddenly decide to announce “I’m just an LLM, and I can’t process images”, and I have to encourage it to try anyway. It’s strange. Still overall a time saver.

As for segmenting the images (header/footer/table/main text) I’ve been using Abbyy and it’s generally pretty good at it. It unfortunately often fails at footnotes in much the same way as described in the post, so it won’t get you past that hurdle.
I have a feeling with tailwind and a component library like shadcn or an equivalent, it’s very do-able for an LLM

Isn't this the argument for releasing the source code? Looking at the code would be as bad as disassembling it.

You can release source code under a license that gives customers the right to modify it and distribute patches to your other customers who have the license that came with their hardware without giving competitors the right to ship it on their own hardware without paying you.

This idea came to me after my first on-call, when I had to quickly figure out what is going on in a distributed system of 200+ micro-services. That's why I focused on embedding documentation into a diagram and being able to zoom into the parts of a complex system as much as you can. So that you stay focused on the entire picture. The alternative is to jump between multiple Google Docs/Wiki/Readmes for multiple services and read tones of text.
I imagine that it is for either insurance or regulatory reasons. Someone upstream is nervous about the bank relying on a startup for its core infrastructure, and is only placated by knowing that the code is in escrow. They're not themselves programmers and don't know how useless the code would be without the institutional knowledge of the startup.

> Just because the OSI doesn’t like Open RAIL doesn’t make it not open source unless you’re strictly talking about the OSD.

If you aren’t talking about the OSD, you end up reducing “open source” to a semantically-null buzzword. But, in any case, I intentionally didn’t mention “open source”. The weights are under a use-restrictive license, not an open license, even leaving out the debates over what “source” is. And tha’s just SD1.x, SD2.x, and SDXL, which have the CreativeML OpenRAIL-M license (SD1.x) or CreativeML OpenRAIL++M licenses (SD2.x/SDXL). SD3.x has a far more restrictive license, as does Flux Dev.

> Flux Schnell is Apache.

Huh. It’s almost like I should have explicitly except Flux Schnell from the other Stable Diffusion and Flux models when I said they didn’t have open licenses.

Oh, I did.

> LTX-1 is Apache.

Yes, it is. LTX-1 is “neither Flux (except the distilled Flux Schnell model) nor Stable Diffusion”. AuraFlow (an image model) is also Apache, and while its behind Flux – Dev or Schnell – or SDXL in current mindshare, it got picked – largely for licensing reasons – as the basis for the next version of Pony Diffusion, a popular (largely, though not exclusively, for NSFW capabilities) community model series whose previous versions were based on SD1.5 and SDXL, which gives it a good chance of becoming a major player.

It's closer to a counter-flow heat exchanger, but you could still have air only go in one direction at a time. Say your indoor temperature is 20 degrees and the 3 heat exchangers are at 25, 30, and 35 degrees, and outside is 40 degrees (I'm thinking in Celsius, though 40 is a bit extreme). You blow air out until they cool to 20, 25, and 30 degrees. Then you blow air the other way until they heat back up to 25, 30, and 35 degrees, with the air coming in being somewhere in the 20-25 degree range instead of 40 degrees that the outside air is at.

This assumes that the heat exchanger has just enough thermal capacity so that raising/lowering its temperature by 5 degrees would get the air to the same temperature. In fact, it might be easier to imagine if the air doesn't blow continuously. Each chamber could fill up with air and wait for the heat exchanger and the air to get to the same temperature, before moving the air to the next chamber.

> No timers, no human interaction.

Is there something in the proposed rule that actually says this? And if so, what happens to the small business that does cancellations over email/phone and therefore requires human interaction?

> And if the process takes time (there are times I think confirmations are warranted) once that's been done the cancellation takes place at the time of your original request. (Which you can screenshot.)

The issue isn't that you care if the cancellation happens at 9AM or 9PM, it's that if you have to wait twelve hours to speak to a representative you give up before reaching the point you can make the request.
This isn't the only extortion problem really? When users can pressure the network to censor or delete someone because they don't agree with their opinions that's a slippery slope to start.

>I've seen discussions about the similarity between Liszt's Consolation 3 (s.172) and Chopin's Nocturne no 2 op 27.

>Liszt Consolation 2 s.172 approx. measure 52-54 sounds similar to Chopin Etude no 1 op 25 measure 28-29? not the same key but they sound reminiscent of one another, at least to me. Anyone else notice this? Or am I way off?

Looks like Liszt and Chaupin can be quite similar

We do not, and they don’t.

Almost every employee starts out believing the spiel about mission, team, and caring for workers (to some degree) and personally invest care in the endeavor.

Up until they are fired for the first time seemingly in contradiction to what was promised.

Companies and employers do not and have never cared for employees personally. They can not.

Eventually, most workers gain a much more pragmatic understanding of how the world works.
At that point, they are at best equal.
Even ChatGPT 3.5 had "wisdom", so you're definitely wrong.
Normally you should attempt to find all the corner cases and present the errors to the user -- before processing the request. If you can't do this, it's time to rethink how your api works. A good api is simple to use and simple to write.

It also simplifies your business logic in that all the possible user defined idiocies are caught before your business logic actually processes the request.

Some frameworks do this better than others. And rather than documentation, I tend to prefer comprehensive error messages.
Feels like OP is basically implementing exceptions and exception handling at the application level. If this is what you want, then why not just switch to one of the many other languages that has exceptions built in at the language level?
You'd need that fetch_sub operation to saturate at zero instead of wrapping to 0xFFFF, and I'm not aware of a processor that provides saturating atomic arithmetic operations.
