thanks!

I did look into CUE in the very early days of Bruin but ended up going with a more YAML-based configuration due to its support. I am not familiar with their flow package specifically, but I'll definitely take a deeper look. From a quick look, it seems like it could have replaced some of the orchestration code in Bruin to a certain extent.

One of the challenges, maybe specific to the data world, is that the userbase is familiar with a certain set of tools and patterns, such as SQL and Python, therefore introducing even a small variance into the mix is often adding friction, this was one of the reasons we didn't go with CUE at the time. I should definitely take another look though. thanks!
The parallels are pretty superficial. The process is similar to theologians arguing scripture or maybe querying a low-grade LLM.

What is your purposed mechanism/leagally authorative/enforcing body to stop two multinational corporations from incorporating in any one of their markets?

Even if they where headquarterd in US and strictly trading on US market, corporations have rights akin to human beings.

Con-agra, unliver, comcast. All these merged in the US just fine under a very stringent FTC. How could they possibly prevent a foreign multinational corp from doing the same?

As a flashlight nerd and reviewer, I know a number of ways to control the brightness of an LED, and linear regulators are a fairly common one. It's important to note that a linear regulator can be designed to target a specific voltage, or a specific current. LEDs should be regulated with current for the reason you mentioned.

One that I think would work well in cars is a fixed-current linear regulator like the AMC7135. There's no need to do anything fancy to control it; put a 7135 in the circuit and the LED gets 350mA. Two in parallel and it gets 700mA, and so on. More fancy is a linear regulator with variable current output.

Linear regulators are a low-end option for flashlights, with switched-mode power supplies being preferred for their superior efficiency. A car has a lot more energy to work with and more mass with which to sink and radiate heat.
That blinking is usually a dealer installed add-on that can be hard to get removed (and usually involves modifying the factory wiring, thanks), generally on the high mount brake light (CHMSL). I personally believe these lights violate the law (and I think this letter supports that position [1], if it's still current?), but dealers gonna deal.

But I think the poster is complaining about the higher frequency flickering that's supposed to be imperceptible... if you don't perceive it, that's better for you. Unfortunately, I regularly see it especially when moving my heads or eyes and find it pretty distracting. There's circuit design techniques to reduce the flickering, but saving pennies here and there adds up, so there you go.

The Full Story of CVE-2024-6386: Remote Code Execution in WPML
Clinical trials started in 2008. Thats decades for something major to appear. There are minor things, but people can simply stop taking it. Given the weight lost causes years of healthy lifespan to be gained, it would take a monumental problem that would have been seen by now to make it not worth it for a lot of people who can't lose weight on their own.
Which user/comment are you referring to? The top-level comment? I'm the person you replied to initially, and that's not what I said, so I'm assuming you're referring to something else.
I think even defining "major" here is going to be hard. E.g. a lot of CVSS are 8 to 10, because of the _impact_ and now the _exploitability_.

So a very annoying bug that does not have any impact is major, or not major? Like my internet radio sometimes has connectivity issues. It resolves itself, but takes maybe 10-15s. After that, it works fine for a couple of hours of even a day. I wouldn't consider that major, because the product is usable in its intented way, it's just annoying.
Isn't a "hot take" supposed to be controversial?
Even worse: Poor mod compatibility. There are numerous games that are pretty lame without some community mods, or are fun for a single playthrough but there is a whole galaxy of mods that give it a new life afterward.

Every institutions #1 priority is to amass power and perpetuate itself. Of course the violence arm of the state engages in extralegal surveillance and extralegal intelligence gathering and extralegal violence to these ends of course it curries favor with the arms of government it seeks to ally itself with by offering to do so on their behalf on a limited basis.

Speaking about the police specifically, or perhaps more generally the executive branch of the state, the only thing that checks this power is the risk of them doing something that so threatens the populace or other institutions that they ally against them. The point at which this check starts becoming a realistic possibility explains the variance in volume and forms this bad behavior takes from country to country, culture to culture, etc.
> Things are also a bit complicated where I live by the fact that 'this weekend' and 'next weekend' follow the same pattern as I described before, but in a way consistent with calendar weeks beginning on Monday rather than Sunday— even though calendars here conventionally start the week on Sunday and usage of 'this <day of week>' and 'next <day of week>' align with that.

My sense is that weekend nomenclature is even more confusing.

If it is Monday, and I say "next weekend", I'd wager there's a greater proportion of English speakers (at least) who would understand that to mean the two day period that starts in roughly another 4 days. That is: "next weekend" referred to at any time before (possibly) Friday means "the next one to occur", not "the one that is a part of the next calendar week". By contrast, on Friday "next weekend" pretty clearly means the two days that will occur in about 7 days, rather than "this weekend" meaning the two days that start in less than 24 hours.
And yet, we as civilians cannot resist just handing that power over to them.

What's the solution? People just don't care about civil liberties, if it means the possibility of preventing every perceivable harm to protected members of society (think of the children).

There is apparently no line.

It's not even that the US has bad optics in our headlights

Dealers are the ones responsible for making sure headlights are properly aligned before being sold so that the cut off is below the regulated height. This is, however, not at all enforced or incentivised. Which means that none does it and many headlights are aimed too high

Many people also replace standard or HID bulbs with cheap LED bulbs which are not designed for the original housing and that results in crazy high lumens spraying everywhere without a proper cutoff.

Police mask have no incentive to ticket for any of this and the end result is being blinded at night constantly by either mis aligned headlights or cheap super bright LED bulbs.

I didn't know about Ray Data before, but just gave a quick look and it seems like a framework for ML workloads specifically?

Bruin is effectively going a layer above individual assets, and instead takes a declarative approach to the full pipeline, which could contain assets that are using Ray internally. In the end, think of Bruin as a full pipeline/orchestrator, which would contain one or more assets using various other technologies.

I hope this makes sense.
> Given that sustainable, side effect free ways to lose weight exist (with many additional benefits)

Just because it exists doesn't mean it's statistically applicable to a population of people. I've yet to see real evidence that on a population scale, sustainable and side effect free ways to lose weight exists at a statistically significant level. If you're 100+ lbs overweight and you lose it all without any medical intervention for over 5 yrs you're basically a statistical freak.

It's not impossible, but of course they're not homegrown.

Putin's apologists always demand he be given the benefit of the doubt. That's akin to convicting a spy beyond a reasonable doubt. That standard is meant to favor false negatives over false positives when incarcerating people. Better to let a thousand criminals go free than to imprison an innocent person.

If we used that for spies, we'd have 1000 of them running around for each convicted one. Not to mention that they have a million ways to avoid detection. They rely on their training, on the resources of the state, and on infiltrators who sabotage detection efforts. The actual ratio would be much higher.

In the case of opinion manipulation, the balance is even more pernicious. That's because the West decided a couple decades ago to use the "it's just a flesh wound" approach to foreign interference.

The problem is that we're not just protecting gullible voters. We're also defending the reputation of democracy. Either democracy works, or it doesn't. If it doesn't, then we're philosophically no better than Russia and China.

But if it was possible to control the outcome of elections by online manipulation alone, that would imply that democracy doesn't really work. Therefore online manipulation "can't work." Officially, it might sway opinion by a few points, but a majority of voters must definitionally be right. If manipulation makes little difference, then there's not much reason to fight it (or too openly anyways.)

Paradoxically, when it comes to detecting Russian voter manipulation, the West and Putin are strange bedfellows. Nothing to see here, move along.
excellent points
This problem is a result of regulation, as it's not legal to have steerable headlights that solve its problem like folks do in Europe.
The bury our heads in the sand part seems to be you projecting.

The research disagrees with you. Whenever new built nuclear power is included in the analysis the results becomes prohibitively expensive.

> Focusing on the case of Denmark, this article investigates a future fully sector-coupled energy system in a carbon-neutral society and compares the operation and costs of renewables and nuclear-based energy systems.

> The study finds that investments in flexibility in the electricity supply are needed in both systems due to the constant production pattern of nuclear and the variability of renewable energy sources.

> However, the scenario with high nuclear implementation is 1.2 billion EUR more expensive annually compared to a scenario only based on renewables, *with all systems completely balancing supply and demand across all energy sectors in every hour*.

> For nuclear power to be cost competitive with renewables an investment cost of 1.55 MEUR/MW must be achieved, which is substantially below any cost projection for nuclear power.

Perhaps removing the informant from the field would be a less productive but legal solution to preserve their life?

I don’t think non-secret police has the right to overpass it’s rights even for any good with honest sentiment. How useful is a legal framework that can be trespassed in case of lives at risk, in a violent context where people get murdered?

The most compelling issue to me came at the end of the piece, but it is much deeper and harder to address: the increasing lack of civility and anti-collectivist tendencies in American life.
From the factory, the high beam cutoff would still be below the bottom of your windows and mirrors, so it still wouldn't be bright to you at all.

Since I did lift my vehicle for offroad use, if your vehicle is unusually low and I pulled right up on your bumper it could still shine bright inside (but still below the rearview mirror level)- but I am quite aware of this, and never pull forward enough that the cutoff rises above the bottom of the car window in front of me. This is also just a good driving technique for me as well, because it leaves me enough room to escape the lane or drive around you if I need to in an emergency, e.g. due to a disabled vehicle, etc.
Can you elaborate (or provide a source that does) on how passkeys prevent a phisher from just MITMing the initial passkey setup with some nonsense claim about your session expiring? I'm probably mistaken here, but my interactions with passkeys always make them seem to be trust-on-first-use, which is a very phishable strategy.
There's a short paragraph on "earthshine" towards the end.
I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make. If it were someone I knew, I would be upset, yes, and would pursue options for justice - which is, as I said, the more important aspect of such a system. Furthermore, even if my position changed if it were one of my loved ones, I wouldn't think my emotionally-charged thinking should be used to craft legislation.

If you're advocating for systems that cannot possibly be abused... good luck. Providing benefits to society often comes with avenues of potential abuse.

I tease non-Texans that Texan English is actually superior to normal American English because it supports second-person plural via "Y'all" exactly as mentioned in this article... "you guys" is, to some ears, sexist, and "youse guys" (a New York-ism) is a little too old-school Italian.

English lost its second person plural when we switched from Thou (second person singular formal + Thee=second person singular informal) and Ye (second person plural) to just "You", but Texans rightly have solved the problem and kept the clarity. (The more-modern "Yo" is delightfully brief but as ambiguous as "you".)

Now... if you want to tease a Texan back about all this, you can ask them whether that implies the proper phrase for when you enter Texas then should be "Abandon hope all y'all (was: ye) who enter here!"

Actually there are 6 types of deployments of Schemio

1. Self-hosted, there is even a docker container available (https://hub.docker.com/r/binshu/schemio/tags). It does not have authorization and user-management, stores all diagrams on a file system. But it allows you to run server in write and read-only mode

2. https://schem.io - a service for collaborative editing and sharing of diagrams. This is obviously a closed-source for now and it uses the open-source frontend of Schemio

3. Schemio as a js library. Although I am not really releasing it to npm, just hadn't the time to work this out. But there is an option to build a js lib that lets you use Schemio as a Vue component. That's actually how I made it work on https://schem.io

4. https://schemio.app - Google Drive based frontend. All your diagrams are stored on Google Drive. Obviously you cannot share your diagrams, as they are only available to you. This is completely open-sourced and you can even build it yourself with npm

5. Static deployment. If you use option 1, you can export all of your diagrams into a static deployment and even host it on Github pages.

6. Standalone player of Schemio that lets you embed a single diagram on your website

I think the court system is generally capable of resolving whether or not a bug makes a product defective. Courts and the legal system are very experienced at dealing with ambiguity.

Absent marketing to the contrary (prior to sale), I would consider a software defined radio that cuts out for 10-15s at a time defective. That out right breaks a lot of use cases. If that's a software (and not instead the result of something like damage to your particular unit) I would expect that to be fixed in a reasonable period of time for a product to be considered supported.

I like "Hi Team". I do use that in certain social circles, but I do get the point of the article.

Survivor, the US TV show, used to say "Come on in guys" until recently where they made a point to discuss the topic on camera with the contestants. There was a variety of opinions, but they ultimately settled on "Come on in." which conveys the point in a neutral tone.
This was addressed in the article:

"This is a serious but very rare side effect. Often, we only learn about this kind of thing after a new drug has been on the market for a few years, as is the case with Ozempic. It should be emphasised that it is neither more serious nor more common than the rare side effects of many other medicines that we continue to use. It is, so to speak, just a new piece of the puzzle of understanding how this drug works, explains Anton Pottegård."
That's a great point - modern drives are actual PCIe devices themselves, not the more restricted SATA protocol.
