Anyone can RSVP, but only Apple users can fully partake in it.

Also, per sgt's comment below, it seems it works the same way as sharing documents via OneDrive. "Share with anyone, doesn't require sign-in". That is the actual text from the Share dialog in Windows 11. "Doesn't require sign-in". Well, except if you're sharing more than one document under a link - then it forces recipients to sign in with an account. It's even documented in the on-line help for the feature, just not mentioned in the UI. Also, when you share a single document, while sign-in truly isn't required, the link still leads to a login page that urges signing in or creating an account, and just has this tiny, barely noticeable link to access without login, tucked in the corner somewhere.

(I miss Dropbox's "Public" folder from a decade ago. That was the first and last time sharing documents from web drives made sense.)
Nope, they were in control, spent 4 years focusing most of their attention on things the voting public found various degrees of stupid, then put up two successive candidates in ‘24 that were absolute jokes. The voters decided that the Democrats weren’t serious and sent them a message: “Even this obviously-corrupt buffoon is better than the arrogant elitist that you put up. Do better or be prepared for irrelevance.”

Personally I’m no fan of 90% of the GOP agenda, but my fondest wish is complete dissolution of the DNC, and another party taking over as the party of the non-rich to restore some balance.

A Senior / Lead React Front-end Developer, Design Engineer, Software Architect is looking for a part time, fractional job.

I have dual skills: a degree in Computer Science and UI/UX design works featured in online galleries.

In the last 15 years I've been designing and developing websites and applications. From back-end to front-end, from architecture design to UI/UX design, on different stacks. I've built and managed front-end teams, shaped products.

Currently, I specialize in React and TypeScript, offering expertise in:

- Team Leadership: Building and guiding React teams, producing high-quality code even with junior developers.

- Design Engineering: Developing robust design systems, enabling rapid prototyping, shaping product design, and bridging developer-designer communication gaps.

- React Software Architecture: Solving pain points like state management and code architecture, as highlighted in the 2023 State of JS survey: https://2023.stateofjs.com/en-US/usage/#top_js_pain_points.

- AI-Driven Development: Advising on building likely-correct React apps and training AI models for React app generation.

I prefer a part-time or fractional role as I also run a research and development studio focused on correct software: https://www.osequi.com/.
There is a typo in the submission title. Isn't it easier to copy than type the whole title?
Beej, your Guide to Network Programming helped me through my early UNIX career. In fact, your guide was so influential to so many people, it very quickly became recommended reading in my university's network course.

I'm delighted to see that you're still active and still producing guides. Well done!
I think it’s important to clarify that in this case, having a “modicum of power” is in the form of being able to say it doesn’t exist without a riot and a beheading. It’s not in the form of money or command of an army, though those things definitely help.
The one area that'd make kagi thousands of dollars from me and the apps I use would be to lower their APO searches to a sane price.

Currently they charge 2.5c for an API search. This is between 1,000 to 1,000,000 times more than other companies in the space charge.

AI systems need to do dozens of searches for every question to get good results and kagi's results are really good. But not 1,000,000 times better than the competition.
No, that's missing the point. What hotels, casinos and apartments were promised to the Biden administration to flood Israel with money and weapons to flatten the Gaza strip into rubble and kill and maim hundreds of thousands?

It's not important what leverage Israel has used to make yet another US president do exactly what they want, contrary to any idea of justice, international law, basic humanity and common sense. The point is that Israel has that kind of leverage and nobody is able to resist it.
I am also skeptical.

A compiler is a function from source code strings to binary bytes. Writing out instructions to do memory-unsafe things is not in itself a memory-unsafe activity.
Closures are definitely cumbersome in Rust, and Lisp/Haskell/Scala programmers use them all the time. In SICP for example, they translate several math equations to code using higher order functions and closures, and it is wonderful how clean the code is, and how close to the actual mathematics.

That's what i meant it is impossible to do in Rust. From that point of view, Rust is a low level procedural language, but expressing any kind of business logic it is almost as high level as Haskell or Java.

But if we focus on error detection, then Rust is the highest level of any other PL. For example Java or Python are too low level when an error occurs. That high level of error detection is paid of course, and that is by longer compilation times.

If i had a wish though, i would wish Rust had as good closures as Haskell or Lisp.
If you present an argument that you like X in a thing so you picked B, and A exist that's more X than B, it means your argument is partially (you like X and Z) or totally (you like Y) wrong.

In this context of, if you are using Zig for its safety via tooling, there is a much more mature candidate C++.
I don't think it says that. I think it confirms that they are extremely picky and that these apps amplify that, making things worse for everyone except the apps... which is the point, to make money, not hook people up with healthy lasting relationships. This is yet another externality of capitalism.
This is complete crap. There was no warning given. And isn't this illegal?

> we'll buy it from licensed suppliers in the EU for a tenth of the price

Actually is that possible? Are the EU suppliers allowed to resell at the gov negotiated price? Or are the gov negotiated price only for internal market?

(I've been wondering since I don't understand why swiss drug price are so much higher given that EU suppliers are next door)
> Only if "utterly fucked" somehow means you can still pay a bit more to DHL and get packages even faster than USPS.

That probably will work for like a week, considering how fast and reckless the administration moves.
It boils down to responsibility.

We need to trust machines more than humans because machines can't get responsibility. That code that you pushed and broke prd - you can't point at the machine.

It is also predictability/growth in a sense. I can assess certain people and know what they will probably get wrong and develop the person and adjust it. If that person uses LLMs it disguises that exposure of skill and leads to a very hard signal to read as a senior dev, hampering their growth.
Gym memberships are also a thing people think they should have more than they actually desire to use them. So many people want to be healthy and get in shape, but aren't committed to actually doing the work. So when it comes time to think about cancelling plenty of people keep the gym membership because they think theyshould use it but then don't make the time.

Whereas Netflix and other streaming? It's so easy to just stay in and binge watch. The logical thing to do is cancel when you aren't using it to avoid paying year round, but they bank on the combination of laziness (takes effort to cancel) and ease of use - if you watch even just once or twice a month it starts seeming worthwhile.

And I'd bet most users still make them money. There's a huge fixed cost to setting up a giant content streaming service like Netflix, and to acquiring their content catalog, but they've hyper optimized the distribution so I'd expect all but the heaviest users make them money. And with ad supported plans, watching more would mean they get to serve more ads and make even more money.
Building out mostly unused high-speed rail interconnections and being in debt is a well-known sign of a country that thinks short-term. the local government gets paid for building these useless rails out.

I'm saying your premise is so hilariously ahistorical it deserves mocking.
> Zig came up with a way around this: compile directly to LLVM bitcode (LLVM has strong backwards-compatibility on its bitcode but not on its public-facing API) and then upgrades become trivial because we can keep our existing code generation the same.

i'm glad that zig helps offset what i find a rather worrying trend -- replacing protocols with libraries (and as a consequence designing new underlying protocols in view of their only being used through the vendor library).

protocols are traditionally designed to facilitate an independent implementation; in fact, many standards ratification processes require several independent implementations as a prerequisite.

libraries (or worse, frameworks) intermingle the actual api with their own design, and necessitate a single implementation.

just the other day i wanted to display a notification a linux desktop where it wasn't convenient to depend on a library (it was a game, so not a traditional application expected to have many dependencies). the protocol (there is one, wrapped by the library) is very unpleasant, but i got it working out of spite.

and of course, when there is a perfectly nice protocol available (llvm ir, in either the bitcode or text representation) why not choose it? at least on unix, where starting processes and interprocess communication is cheap. (and as an added bonus, you won't crash when llvm does.)
> But, even if you think that anxiety and paranoia is a healthy way to go about things... This still wouldn't teach the correct behavior. Punishing people for mistakes does not teach them how to manage finances correctly, it teaches them fear about recurring subscriptions.

Unfortunately, consequences often are the only guiding factor. I am assuming that we are talking about normal system here where the user has full control to cancel the financial occurrence. We are not talking about some abusive system that is pretending or denying the cancellation. In that case, it is not different that paying your rent.

If people feel anxiety and paranoia for that, that is not normal and they should do something about it. Like having a confidence that they are in control of their own life. It is a basic life skill.

About the power of consequences - that dictates the world. Almost always it is impossible to provide better carrot than the ill actions are producing.

Look no further than the U.S. politics. If there are no consequences for ill actions, those actions will continue as long as it is possible.

Russia will annex new land until it faces the hard stop.

Companies will push boundaries of the law and ethics until there is a financial consequence.

People will trash the park until the fine is large enough and someone is patrolling in the park.

People will drive beyond speed-limit until the fine is correlating their income level. Otherwise only rich people can break the speed-limit.
Slack does, or did, do this. I believe Trello, too.

I found out about this because I noticed our Slack bill was quite a lot lower over some Christmas/January period. It was because so many folks were away, and so they didn't charge us for seats that were inactive for > 30 days.
In the UK, the political party (which is a actually a privately owned company) owned by the guy who drove the initial wave of Brexit is apparently topping the polls now.

The only policy they talk about is getting rid of all the immigrants because that's what caused all the problems, not decades of right wing government culminating in Brexit.

But underdeath that is the usual US-style Turbo capitalism stuff like destroying the NHS and handing it over to American corporations.
When everyone is dating everyone else, this essentially creates a tragedy of the common where no one wants to commit because they see better options always, but ironically, no one person will find their best option and have that best option also find them as the best option too.
if arxiv detects that it's a latex-generated PDF, it will reject it. Though it's probably possible to launder the latex-generated PDF through ghostscript or something to evade detection (I haven't tried...)
Yeah, don't use Proton, they're several types of shady. If you can figure out running Matrix, that's better. Email isn't built for security, don't treat it as if it was. Use PGP on the body if you want, but the metadata will still be very talkative.

tried Kagi for 2 months. It works really nice, but I think it is overpriced. I as a heavy user do notice the difference in milliseconds in comparison with google. Paying $10 and still having that delay felt really bad, so I ended up canceling my subscription.

> As long as your mental model is right, the commands are not a big deal.

A priori, I would have assumed this was one of those "just understand how every layer and every part of Linux works, and using Linux is easy" type arguments people used to make in the 90s - i.e. theoretically true, practically infeasible for most people.

Thankfully, I was lucky enough to come across a video explaining (some of) the git internal model early on, and it really doesn't take that much or that deep a knowledge of the internals for it to make a big difference. I'd say I know maybe 5% of how git works, and that already gave me a much better understanding of what the commands do and how to use them.
Unless I've missed a thread, no one seems to be saying what counts.

Changing duties, taxes, and rules is fine. It's how a society adjusts. Changing them instantly is literally the most anti-consumer, anti-business concept ever.

No 30 days? 90 days? Nope, block it all now! That's sheer stupid on a caliber almost unheard of. It sends a signal "Don't do business with the US, the rules change on a whim". Don't do business IN the US, the same!

Set up a company anywhere else, any other nation, else you'll wake up tomorrow and your entire business model is invalidated, without even a day to adjust.

This is how children behave. How over emotional, non-rational people behave.

Unfortunate.

I personally support this, but not immediately. Nutty.
Which country is poorer: Luxembourg or Kenya? Luxembourg has a lower GDP, after all.
I disagree with the actions of the rogue employee who leaked those instructions, that's clearly wrong and illegal, and it's right to call that out. However, I believe there is some misunderstanding because sharing those answers doesn’t mean the FAA lowered the bar. What happened was akin to someone unethically telling people how to cheat to get an interview referral at google- yet the actual subsequent qualification process, the rigorous training and certification, including the AT-SAT remained unchanged. The FAA still demands the same high standards from all candidates once they enter the pool.
I stopped using Kagi because the results in my native language are terrible. It's a pitty because Google is the only search engine good at it.

The purpose of a protest in general should not be to affect the people in power, it should be for enpowering and bonding the people to further enact post-protest. A moralle boost, a conversation starter, an ignition to call more people to action.
Having sayd that, a very successfull protest does affect the upper ones, only temprorarily and tactically. A policy maker will still want to make X move, but ever so slightly delay it or figure out a differnt narrative to bring it back some time later.

I'm sure voters have more nuanced opinions than just "science" and "foreign aid".

For example, I suspect the public strongly supports taxpayer funding of medical research, but strongly opposes taxpayer funding for social sciences.
Sign up for an API account and connect something like Open WebUI[0] and you can have just that, with a few caveats (mostly around specific UI features).

Bonus is you can query multiple models at once, including local llama.cpp/Ollama models. I use it with the Claude and OpenAI APIs, as well as local Mistral, Qwen, and DeepSeek models.

They probably have enough data to indicate that a negligible number, if not none, of their customers are searching quite a lot. If they had a lot of customers who were using the service at a very low frequency, this policy actually disincentivises them from making that first search. For those people, the cost of their first search is suddenly 5 (or 10) dollars!
It’s short-termism but not the kind you first think of in the West.

Chinese local officials are expected to meet and exceed targets for GDP growth. Investment is GDP growth, so officials are incentivized to build lots of flashy projects to boost growth even if there isn’t a clear need for them.

The central government is so concerned with local government spending that has resulted that it has ordered 12 provinces to halt new projects: https://www.reuters.com/world/china/china-orders-indebted-lo...
