Linux will politically continue to fail to extract needed monetary support from first world countries and mega corps principally dependant on it.

In particular, my libraries and national security concerns.

The US government has its underwear in a bunch over various Chinese sources hardware, but continues to let a bunch of hobbyists maintain the software.

I almost think it is time to hold these massive orgs accountable by merging targeted vulnerabilities and performance bombs unless they start paying up. Microsoft and other monopolized software companies have no issue using whatever tactics are necessary to shale the revenue from software dependent/ addicted orgs.
You can hear some sounds in the stream that I think are one of the presenters weeping during the launch and landing sequences. I think I would be similarly awe struck to witness such a thing
How Can a Major Bank Like Capital One Be Offline for 24 Hours?
I have a small business and run my payroll, vendor payments, etc. with Capital One bank. My accounts have been completely unavailable since yesterday.

Can anyone share what's going on and how a bank of that size can suffer such a prolonged outage?
Did they jump from zero to 1PB in one day? Or is this something like GCS usage only shows up on a Firebase dashboard view once a month?

(I'd look this up myself but replies on Xitter seem to be Muskwalled)
I wonder what makes people believe that the US currently enjoys any kind of a meaningful "military advantage" over e.g. China? After failing to defeat the Taliban and running from the Houthis especially. This seems like a very dangerous belief to have. China has 4x the population and outproduces us 10:1 in widgets (2:1 in dollars). Considering just e.g. steel, China produces about 1 billion metric tons of it per year. We produce 80 million tons. Concrete? 2.4B tons vs 96M tons. 70+% of the world's electronics. Their shipbuilding industry is 230x more productive (not a typo). Etc, etc.

The short term profits US businesses have been enjoying over the past 25 years came at a staggering long term cost. The sanctions won't even slow down the Chinese MIC, and in the long run they will cause them to develop their own high end silicon sector (obviating the need for our own worldwide). They're already at 7nm, at a low yield. That is more than sufficient for their MIC, including the AI chips used there, currently and in the foreseeable future.
Musk's promises never age well, but, really, this particular dialog should be a meme.
yes, apparently on october 18th alone they managed to rack up a single petabyte, which honestly sounds implausible, but who knows what they were doing.
Flagged why?
Speaking of algorithms definitely a far fetched idea if there was a LLM esque tool trained on all digital data produced by humans since computers were a thing and had root level access to all devices on the planet could it alter shuffling algorithms even on self hosted stuff to display items a specific way?
Lit has indeed done important work in standards-first development through web components.

But the issue is that Lit still approaches web development through the lens of components. While these components may be "standard" web components that encourages developers to keep bundling markup, styles, and behavior together rather than maintaining proper separation of concerns.

Nue takes a different approach by removing all the unnecessary layers between the developer and web standards. Where Next.js forces content into JavaScript components and requires complex build pipelines, Nue provides a more direct development experience built directly on HTML (layout), Markdown (content), vanilla CSS, and vanilla JavaScript.

With Nue HMR completes in milliseconds rather than seconds. The HMR spans css, content, data, and HTML-based server and client-compnents. CSS updates instantly through the native cascade instead of rebuilding components. The entire development feedback loop stays under 100ms, maintaining perfect flow while preserving document state.

Most importantly, this sort of standards-first architecture enables true systematic design trough vanilla CSS. Instead of coupling design decisions to components through utility classes or CSS-in-JS, with Nue you can build design systems directly with CSS variables, calc() and other modern goodies.
It was funny to me too talking to execs in the datacenter space for the first time and hearing them talk about computer in MW terms.

"Last quarter the team brought up X MWs in Y Chicago, good job everyone."
No Go. What makes this project impressive is how he avoided nearly all of the most popular mainstream languages in favour of eg COBOL and XSLT(!).

I think the closest thing to what you want is the newsletter I send 2-3 times a week: https://newsletter.newsminimalist.com/

It's available via RSS too: https://rss.beehiiv.com/feeds/4aF2pGVAEN.xml

I attempted to make a weekly version, but quickly dropped the idea. Over the course of the week articles often became outdated (not just old, but plain wrong).

I found that an optimal newsletter schedule is sending it about every 48-72 hours, depending on how eventful that period was. With this frequency, the articles rarely become outdated, and at the same time it's not too frequent to get tired of.
> I personally will never use a platform that can kick me out on a whim, or could screw me the moment Gabe Newell gets hit by a bus.

This is a very strange take for someone arguing for locking into Nintendo's most-recent ecosystem (where you're generously allowed to re-buy some of the games you already own from previous generations) over an open, linux-based hardware platform that connects to steam.
I know of a large international retailer everyone here has heard of that had at least 3 aborted attempts to rewrite their 70's VAX-based warehouse management software stack (an internal attempt, an Indian outsource attempt and an SAP attempt) they spent that much at least with zero to show for it. They had all the issues with "too many sales in one day causing batches to not finish" and "but this warehouse wants to open 24/7..." and still couldn't get it rewritten
We implemented something similar for our Java backend project based on my rant here: https://testdriven.com/testdriven-2-0-8354e8ad73d7 Works great! I only look at generated code if it passes the tests. Now, can we use LLMs to generate tests from requirements? Maybe, but tests are mostly declarative and are easier to write than production code most of the time. This approach also allows us to use cheaper models, because the tool will automatically tell the model about compile error and failed tests. Usually, we give it up to five attempts to fix the code.
Also an example gist: https://gist.github.com/richhickey/fbc1439372b1f5319bb37aa19...

And documentation in the namespace: https://github.com/clojure/core.async/blob/master/src/main/c...
Well LLM generated code doesn't often work for non-trivial code or cases that aren't re-hashed a million times like fizzbuzz.

So I find it almost always requires going through the code to understand it in order to find "oh the LLM's statistical pattern matching made up this bit here".

I've been using Claude lately and it's pretty great for translating code from other languages. But in a few bits it just randomly swapped to variables or plain forgot to do something, etc.
Oh very nice, they just moved the location. Thanks for pointing this out!
I strongly disagree that this is in any way defensible, despite that both Google and AWS do it. You should be able to set a limit, and even if they can't cut off exactly at the limit, they should be able to cut off when you hit (say) 2* your limit, or in the absence of a limit, perhaps issue progressively louder warnings until you hit 10* your usual spend, with the ability for you to give affirmative consent to uncap if you're hoping your app will suddenly take off. Nobody needs to lose their house or their life savings to some teracorp just because "it's hard."
Are you saying that liking loli porn (porn of animated children), to the point of moderating a community based around said porn, is less of a problem than the (very real, I agree) issues highlighted in the Stallman report? Both are super problematic, but being actively into porn that is actually banned in a lot of countries because of its links to pedophilia is even less defensible.
In one of the photos: “Price includes 3-year complementary subscription” with an asterisk and “subject to change”.

I admire their honesty.

I’ll pass though, I prefer my cars to be transportation rather a “place for consuming content”
Probably depends a lot on the team culture. Depending on what part of the product lifecycle you're on (proving a concept, rushing to market, scaling for the next million TPS, moving into new verticals,...) and where the team currently is, it makes a lot of sense to generate more of the codebase by AI. Write some decent tests, commit, move on.

I wish my reports would use more AI tools for parts of our codebase that don't need a high bar of scrutiny, boilerplate at enterprise scale is a major source of friction and - tbh - burnout.

But as a user I appreciate the strictness much more. I don't have to worry about closing background apps or having a bunch of crap running when I'm not actively using it. The OS (mostly) handles that for me, as it should.
The thread said the app was only running for one day, so I think it wrote 1PB during that one day.
That's rather subjective though. I can argue that any popup impairs the useability of the site, a site owner can argue a popup thay takes up half the screen doesn't, because the site is still useable with it.

Ok you were violating the ToS: why? Did you have a legitimate reason to? Were you posting ads or automatically crossposting content?
There are to components, breakeven price for profitability and the price that an or will be paid.

If it costs 10 million dollars to replace a house, the insurance will be out reach for most homeowners.
I remember QBasic was notably different from Applesoft Basic in that QBasic did not require line numbers, and one of the demo programs (remline.bas) removed line numbers for you. Of the variants used by this author, the Commodore Basic variant is distinct in being the only one with line numbers. The others all look very similar.
I don't have. Maybe they were indeed diverted because people got scared? Still seems pointless given the distances involved. Most reports are coming from social media / people watching flightradar24, and news media is just picking those up.
more importantly, if A and C are suburban locations, they probably don't need as much expansion as dogpiling everything in B, which is even more expensive because B is a block of some of the most expensive global real estate in the world.
The insurance thing also seems weird to me, what are you insuring against? It sounds like people are suggesting insurance against... cloud providers just deciding to randomly bill you, but that's not how it works.

Are you buying insurance against having a successful business? No one is going to sell that. Are you buying insurance against being hacked? That makes sense and does exist, but only solves one very specific version of this and isn't really about cloud billing, plus it's likely not accessible to the size of business (or individual use) who get bitten by this sort of thing. Are you buying insurance against incompetence using the services? You can get professional indemnity insurance, and I guess your own LLC could probably sue your own indemnity insurance in this sort of case, but you'd need to defend the decisions as reasonable at the time and not negligent.
I feel like it should be updated. When it was written it wasn't like every Musk could launch high-orbit rockets on sundays. Only actual states did.

Instagram lets me view the video without login (I have to click the 'X' in the top-right of annoying popup, but I can watch it without logging in).
Good for you, it means either your system was sufficiently simple to be fully implemented in 3 months from scratch including all business rules, or you build a new system which left out some amount of rules from the original system without this posing a problem. I don't know much about how central banks work so that might be possible. But not all systems present those characteristics.

States can set whatever rules they like internally. The US can make SpaceX pay them back if they want.
I would love to assist however I can. I sent you an email.
Part of this is that homes are too fancy and large. All of that translates into elevated costs and risks.
Could be. Maybe it happened!

The question here is about whether there is any shred of evidence that it did happen.
It's very likely it exploded on purpose by SpaceX after it wasn't showing good data (aka Flight Termination System). Specifically over water.
I don't oppose these ideas, but it's a matter of priorities. There's just many other features and improvements to implement that seem more valuable.
Directing bicycles on to the sidewalk doesn't even make sense in the first place. It just makes for pedestrian conflicts, difficult maneuvers, and automobile drivers are definitely not looking for cyclists on the sidewalk.
> Meanwhile, we will see more focused efforts to create truly free generative AI systems, perhaps including the creation of one or more foundations to support the creation of the models

I understand this will be free-as-in-beer and free-as-in-freedom... but if it's also free-as-in-"we downloaded a bunch of copyrighted material without paying for it" then I have no interest in using it myself. I am not sure there even is enough free-as-in-ethical stuff to build a useful LLM. (I am aware people are trying, maybe they've had success and I missed it.)
This also works with a normal USB-C 3 cable afaik. No need for actual thunderbolt.
Article title "Brooklyn trio raises $10 million for startup that wants to help open-source developers get paid", probably wouldn't have gotten it flagged.
I think 500ms P75 is good for an app that hits network in a hot path (mobile networks are no joke), but I agree that 200ms is very very bad for hitting the DB on the backend. I've managed apps with tables in the many, many billions of rows in MySQL and would typically expect single digit millisecond responses. If you use EXPLAIN you can quickly learn to index appropriately and adjust queries when necessary.
has anyone tested this working? I get a 301 in my terminal trying to send a request to my site
I used to think this until I tried architecting out how you'd build a billing cap. I recommend it as a design exercise. It's easy to build a bad billing cap that would slow down services and cause outages, but it's basically impossible to build a good billing cap.
The LLM bubble is funny to me because you can see that all of these ideas didn't come from programmers but from people with more money than wit.

Why would you use a LLM in any situation where you need factual accuracy is beyond me.

Like we see in California, when the government sets a price ceiling, insurance companies just leave. Same in Florida. If the free market truly was allowed run normally, the insurance rates in Pacific Palisades or on the Florida coast would be so high that no one could afford to live there. Is that a bad thing? If someone was living in a house near where they tested missiles, we'd call them crazy. At what point can we say the same about people building and rebuilding over and over in these disaster areas.
yeah, you can also find much more easily examples to follow or to get inspiration form. They don't have to be press celebrities anymore, or book authors or characters.

And internet has made figuring out what's possible much easier - so much more is possible than it seemed before.
Hobby mode is using something like Hetzner instead of messing about with "cloud native" nonsense. For the $50/mo they expected, they could get an absolute monster like a Ryzen 5 3600. Cloud native stuff is for when you need to be SOC2 compliant or something and want to minimize access to everything. Clouds charge you worse than enterprise pricing (enterprises negotiate discounts).
Has anyone been able to figure out how to generate RSS feeds for Nextdoor?
I don’t think any economic/parental leave/policy changes can bring a nation’s TFR to replacement rate if women are able to stay single and/or cannot be coerced into having more kids than they want (i.e. have physical security and ability to earn income).

The simplest way to explain is that too few women will have 3 or more kids to offset the number of women that have 0 or 1 child.

Part of it is like that Seinfeld bit about 95% of the population being undate-able. If you have say, 20% of women who don’t pair up because the there is no match available better than them staying single, and another 20% of women who have at most 1 kid, that requires a lot of the remaining women to have 3 or more kids to balance out to 2.1.

And I rarely see someone with 3 or more kids, I didn’t even see it much when I was a kid 30 years ago.
Then I think you may have misread the product line for Sonos and perhaps the core product just isn't for you. Sonos is about wireless speakers that can connect with other speakers in your home and can be controlled over your WiFi network, that is the heart of Sonos. Heck the Play 5 is called "Our most powerful wireless Hi-Fi speaker".

Line in is an additional component of the speaker however the entire ethos is controlling the speaker over WiFi by anyone in the home.
1. These prices seem extremely low.
2. Your calendly links are broken.
The convention does not prevent national law from providing private liability which may come into play between entities subject to the jurisdiction of the same state or between the state who is liable to other states under the convention and entities operating within the state. So, there is no need to update the convention; the states from which private launches operate simply need adequate domestic law to cover both fully-internal liability and private launcher liability for claims against the government under the convention. (And the US generally does, with the basic regulatory regime being adopted and the private space launch industry operating in the 1980s; it is not an issue that arose with Musk/SpaceX.)
there really isn’t a conspiracy. a hard billing cap is at least one of: very difficult (even for faang) to implement without incurring unacceptable performance regressions, impractical as downtime has worse optics than high spend (given that high spend in this case is correlated with traffic, which is good), unnecessary by those customers who represent most revenue.
It sounds like you're confusing the Wii's backwards compatibility with the PS3's. The Wii didn't have a separate "GameCube chip", its core was effectively an overclocked GC.
Or some forms of housing in high-risk areas, like sprawling single-family houses, might get too expensive, and the only way for people to live in those places would be a smaller number of denser, more easily defended structures. Also a good thing.
Most people are stupid and incredibly short-sighted, most of the time. If pre-modern serfs and slaves had access to a fairly reliable, inexpensive means of avoiding contraception, none of us would exist and the human race would be caught between Malthus on the one hand and demographic collapse on other.

It's obvious that future generations are a net gain as far as the advancement of knowledge or our material well-being go, but the immediate cost of having and raising a child is shouldered mostly by their family. Incredibly few people (both now and back then) have children for the greater benefit of society.
Absolutely. All those contingencies are planned out and coded down in software.
My least favorite is when I relent and get on their call, and after 30 minutes of answering their questions, they say "OK, next step is we'll schedule another call with our product specialist, because i'm just a sales guy and i didn't really understand most of that."
Just drop the comments. They are comments, which means they should be ignored when parsing. I just want to be able to parse files with comments instead of getting an error. Same for trailing commas

I walk a lot and support this, even though I am not convinced it makes me more visible when not in front of the headlights. Typically, the danger happens when walking on the sidewalk perpendicular to a road. I can see the car, they cannot see me until I'm a few feet in to the crosswalk when I'm not lit up by a street light.
A great circle line tho
So let me try to put the author's argument in order:

(1) The author tried to get homeowner's insurance, but was denied because their home was a significant hurricane risk

(2) The author (maybe?) got insurance through a state-run FAIR program, but then cites news reports that these programs are close to insolvency (As are a significant amount of non-state-run homeowner insurance programs).

(3) The author is like, "well, if it's so hard to insure my house, maybe I should think about living somewhere else." And then generalizes to "a lot of places should be uninsurable and uninhabited - apocalypse here we come"
Nue is currently mostly just for static sites, but as the article states the development is building towards single-page applications too, keeping the idea of separation of concerns at core.

For reactivity, Nue's client-side library provides the same capabilities as React (components, loops, state updates) in just 2.5kb through HTML-based syntax. But crucially, this interactivity is added to semantic content rather than replacing it.

The critique of React is best explained in this document:

https://nuejs.org/docs/

Coupling content, styling and behavior into JavaScript components can easily turn into hard-to-read code that compounds over time. Nue proves you can build more sophisticated interfaces through web standards while keeping codebases lean and maintainable.
