Of course it's easy for you to say, but the rest of us do need some explanation to understand what you believe. I assume you aren't against encryption being widely available despite the elites/activists using it for nefarious purposes though? Like you are just pointing out the far-lefts hypocrisy when they tried to ban it before?
Also the yolks are noticeably bigger and darker on the home flock. More yolk has a big impact on flavor.
It's not the ingress strategy, it's the egress one. How do you migrate 1TB of data OFF of OneDrive?
you don't need microservices to accomplish that - a library with a well designed public api and a language that lets you enforce private functions/methods are good enough,
The experiment is cool, but after this first attempt I wonder if it's not going to be too easy to guess in just one try lots of times.
I think the assumption they're making is that we want to guarantee a certain reliability of food, and that even if we have perfect insurance that pays out when there isn't enough food, we just have money, and no food.

That's a theoretical problem that could occur, but is extremely unlikely. The worst we'll see is what we have now (eggs are spendy) or a certain type of food disappearing for awhile (tomatoes one year were gone from almost all fast food places).

If we have to substitute one food for another for a year or two that's an inconvenience. But preventing famine by trying to guarantee that the price of eggs doesn't go up is likely far, far down the list. Better that money be spent on improving the supply chains and if necessary bulk storage of long-lasting caloric sources (cheese and flour reserves, perhaps).
Today I wasted 1 hour looking in how to use or where to find "Deep Research”.

I could not. I have the business workplace standard, which contains the Gemini advance, not sure whether I need a VPN, pay a separate AI product, or even pay a higher workplace tier or what the heck is going on at all.

There are so many confusing products interrelated and lack of focus everywhere that I really do not know anymore whether it is worth as an AI provider.
Yep, COVID didn't help either.

However, I'll note that hiring != actual ATC controllers because drop/fail rate which for some insane reason is so hard to find.
I think I have that now covered, you can try it out and tell me if it works if you want.
Except on iOS because Apple can't get its sandboxing act together.
Honestly no idea, I followed this rabbit hole many years ago.

Hindustan times seems like a rag, like British Sun.

I guess I would recommend to take some event that happened 2 years ago, find how some papers wrote about it back then, and if you like it, follow them.

My point is there is no reason to stay in toxic relationship. There is no reason to read news if you do not get any rewards. Even monthly AI summaries will be better, and you will stay "informed".

For example all the Trump shit today, he wants legal precedents from constitutional court, 90% of this shit is irrelevant.
Someone I spoke with recently mentioned that it used to be that you could read a newspaper end-to-end and feel like you were informed. Now, it's an endless stream of information. I would posit that our brains weren't intended to consume that much information, but I'll leave that as uninformed speculation.
That's... worse than the US not building any infrastructure?
I fail to see the contradiction, such that I can’t even guess at what you think the contradiction might be. Could you clarify?
>Revered artisans

This may point to the dividing line. Software is required to be functional, not simply "artistic". You can certainly make the argument that there are non-functional considerations in its construction: readability, maintainability, extensibility, etc. And, these absolutely intersect with style, so it's tempting to apply words like "artistry".

But, is there a point where details veer into personal preference and insistence on style for the sake of style? I think so, and many of us have seen this. For those who haven't yet, stick around!
Yes, that is what "replicate" with my own ideas means.
Is that true even right now in the winter? My hens are basically pensioners at this point. I'm planning on refreshing the flock this spring.
Are Golang slices either dynamic arrays or fat pointers?
Backyard chicken eggs for me are much richer and fuller flavor. I also keep Black Copper Marans and those eggs are delicious.
Excited to see this! Congrats on the launch.
Man, if only it were possible to adjust the number of eggs that we eat in order to account for the increased cost of eggs that are farmed humanely and whose purchase benefits the local economy instead of massive corporate conglomerates. But alas, 340 million souls need their daily eggs.
Examples are going to be hard to come by. No company is going to publicly admit that they used to be limiting their hiring pipeline in such a way. Admittedly, this also means that I'm speculating that the number of companies are "vast". Surely many have quietly made the change.

Sample size of one, I worked in the past for a company whose entire staff was white men, 100%. Except for a single role: the receptionist at the front desk. There is no reasonable biological explanation for this extreme distribution.
Was deeply aware of it at the time - was not really a DEI issue even then - it was pure cronyism.
I think the people who like Rust are in a room where they perceive that elephant to be enormous and people who like Zig are in a room where they perceive it to be much smaller.

You can certainly argue whether or not their perceptions are correct, but I generally believe that people are entitled to their priorities.

Either way, you initially stated confusion about why people stated certain opinions about Rust, C++, and C. I tried to explain why people might hold those opinins. You are then arguing that they shouldn't hold those opinions. Whether or not that's true, a prescriptive claim is orthogonal to understanding what's actually in their heads.
I love how British eggs have deep, amber yolks. Are they force-feeding the hens Earl Grey?
I wanted to say that too, but I rather take any wins we can get. I mean, the best part is, if they made their movies public domain THEN put them all on youtube, they would earn so much ad revenue from them being on their YouTube accounts.
Because people are willing to pay that amount

I'm not a fan of checked exceptions because they force you to use a verbose control structure (try-catch) that distracts from the actual logic being expressed. Typically, checked exceptions are also not exceptional, so I prefer working with monadic exceptions, like Rust's Option/Result, because they encourage error recovery code to use normal control flow, keeping it consistent with the rest of the application.

I also find that generally exceptions can't be meaningfully caught until much higher in the call-stack. In which case, a lot of intermediary methods need to be annotated with a checked exception even though it's not something that matters to that particular method. For this reason, I've really come around on the Erlang way of doing things: throwing runtime exceptions in truly exceptional situations and designing top level code so that processes can simply fail then restart if necessary.
For some short time, that worked for me, until facebook noticed that I was spending less time on it. Then, they started to push posts from other politics-related accounts (especially from ones at the side of the spectrum I used to antagonize most with). That was 4 years ago. I left that crap and didn't look back.
Tiny detail: that "something" has to be out of the house and in a populated area.
I think of this as a failed experiment. Like coal powered cars or when we thought maybe transatlantic travel by airship was the Right Thing. It may be hard to know what'll happen without trying.

The growable array type (what you call "vector") is a venerable data type, although it does still have parameters you might reasonable tweak e.g. what's the correct growth factor? Doubling is popular but e.g. Zig chooses new_size = (old_size * 1.5) + 8 and you'll see disagreement about what API should be offered and why - e.g. C++ std::vector has the wrong reservation API

But this thing clearly isn't a mistake, it's intentionally a hybrid, and if it had been a huge success maybe everybody else would scramble to copy it.
Plus one on this it's so stupid, but also mandatory in a way. Sigh
If you have the need to paste long documents, why don't you just upload the file at that point?
What? It definitely is.

Data parallelism, model parallelism, parameter server to workers, MoE itself can be split up, etc.

But even if it wasn’t, you can simply parallelize training runs with slight variations in hyperparameters. That is what the article is describing.
I'm not familiar with this stuff and don't have time to fully read the specs plus the required background reading. Here is my guess based on skimming the spec:

The application may embed the VAPID public key while the VAPID private key is kept secret by the app developer. That way only the app developer can send valid push notifications. This approach doesn't work when the app running on an untrusted device sends push notifications directly though?

I guess the trick is for the app to treat the push notification purely as a hint to go fetch the latest state from the app server. Do not trust anything in the push notification message. Then it doesn't matter whether the messages are spoofed.

You linked to some Android Intents code in the firebase-message code. I guess that is related to preventing Intent spoofing, but I'm not sure?
That’s one way to keep you watching, you’ve at least gotta hear the rest of the sentence! /s
Are the little guys receiving royalties from these movies decades later? I recall instances where actors paid some of the little guys out of their own pocket to keep movies going, Deadpool is an example of this.
It sure is cool that people who joined Google's pixel pass continue to be unable to give them money to access Advanced.
Why do you say there is a coup going on? There was a peaceful transfer of power.

A plurality of the electorate voted for Trump to be the leader of the executive branch of the United States [1] and a majority of the electorate voted for the Republican Party to be in charge of the House of Representatives [2] as well.

It only seems like a coup because the policies of the current administration and current Republican Party are drastically different from preceding administrations but sometimes in a democracy these types of radical changes occur. It doesn't make it a coup.

I'm being quite serious here. I see much alarm over the things going on in the US right now but the stuff going on seems to be a result of democracy rather than a threat to it...

This was already true irrespective of any emerging media.
Kids these days have much less exposure to boredom. Anywhere you are, you can get lost in TikTok or other social media feeds in three seconds.

As a parent I struggle with this a lot, trying to teach some patience to my children who seem conditioned to fiddle with their phones whenever possible. And of course I'm often not much better myself.
DEI is just a loose label for having less discrimination in the workforce. There's nothing that implies exclusion unless you are intentionally bad faithing the meaning.

Imagine the FAA was only attending job fairs in white parts of the country. Then they decide to attend job fairs in more diverse parts of the country. No one would suddenly decide they were prejudiced against white people!

There's a difference between forcing a white person to give up a seat, and letting a black person sit anywhere on the bus. But both of these are being labelled "DEI" in this thread.

Again, nobody is arguing that the FAA didn't shoot themselves in the foot by introducing a dumb assessment that threw out good candidates. But I think there should be nothing scandalous or wrong with the FAA trying to be available to more candidates.

I'd love the fact that NZ went ahead and banned tobacco cigarettes if I lived there (sad they wimped out on it before it went into effect), but there are plenty of people who'd be very upset about that here in the US. And I'd love it if we banned cannabis again here, but again, there are a lot of people who that'd piss off. I can understand where they're coming from even if I think they're idiots for using recreational (sometimes toxic) drugs.
Ask HN: Embedded Rust Programming. What's Happening?
Hello. I've recently picked up learning Rust. I'm especially interested in using Rust in embedded programming. Reading this right now - https://docs.rust-embedded.org/discovery/microbit/

How far has Rust come in embedded programming? Anyone working on something interesting in this area? What's the job market like? Any advice for amateur programmers like me trying to land a job in this?
Even though the article says this initiative is not part of YouTube Movies/Premium, assumedly if one does have YT Premium/Music, then these movies should be ad-free, correct?
Biosafety prevents or delays the farm from being infected. It doesn't lessen the impact once it happens. One bird can infect all the others in hours even when they are in separate buildings just from spreading on clothing. If they are infected they will die.

If a small farm gets an infected bird, they can't just raise the prices of their eggs. Those eggs will just disappear from the stores because all the birds are dead. If they are doing rigorous isolation, like hiring totally separate people taking care of completely isolated flocks, that should increase their prices. Farms that are spending more money on isolation and chosing not to increase prices are still at high risk- they just haven't been unlucky yet.
>Probably not!

The linked article explicitly disagrees with this opinion. In fact it comes to almost literally the opposition conclusions:

>Not only that, it shattered the pipeline the FAA had built with CTI schools, making the process towards becoming an air traffic controller less certain, undercutting many of the most passionate people working to train prospective controllers, and leading to a tense and unclear relationship between the FAA and feeder organizations.

>Did anyone truly unqualified make it all the way through the pipeline? There's no reason to think so. Did average candidate quality decrease? There's every reason to think so. Would that lead to staffing issues? Unambiguously yes.

That's not to say that you are wrong and the article is correct, but in a discussion that is started by an article, and when the article addresses exactly the points you are making, I feel that it is helpful to give explicit reasons why you think the article is mistaken.
It's super early, and a lot of artists have issues with controllability that make the tools hard to incorporate. This is quickly changing.

Here's a really small scoped short film made with the limited tools available half a year ago. It accomplished simple storytelling with limited tooling:

You're going to see more and more ambitious stuff soon. We're beginning to have the ability to control characters, have consistency, block, and steer.
Maybe you should read this quote from McConnell, arguably the person who did more to defeat the Democrat agenda in the past 20 years than anyone else, who, coincidentally, voted not to confirm Hesgeth.

> “Effective management of nearly 3 million military and civilian personnel, an annual budget of nearly $1 trillion, and alliances and partnerships around the world is a daily test with staggering consequences for the security of the American people and our global interests,” McConnell said in the statement. “Mr. Hegseth has failed, as yet, to demonstrate that he will pass this test. But as he assumes office, the consequences of failure are as high as they have ever been.”
Exactly. From the article: "As originally scored, the test was intended to pass 60% of applicants, but predictions suggested only 3% of black applicants would pass"
Individually we don't have significant shares, but aggregate it up to BlackRock / Vanguard level, then there is real influence. What is that influence worth? that influence given to the fund manager should be priced correctly.
I agree, you probably dont want to have to vote on 500 companies, but to start with it should be an "opt out" decision if you don't care. Alternatively you could allocate your votes to a proxy entity that aggregates like minded investors votes.
You are claiming that Israel has “irresistible leverage” over American presidents, so you're gonna need a lot of clarification to who that this isn't an antisemitic dog whistle. What exactly do you think this leverage is?
I have a fun query in AI studio where I pasted a 800,000 token Wuxia martial arts novel and ask it worldbuilding questions.

1.5 pro and the old 2.0 flash experimental generated responses in AI studio but the new 2.0 models respond with blank answers.

I wonder if it's timing out or some sort of newer censorship models is preventing 2.0 from answering my query. The novel is pg-13 at most but references to "bronze skinned southern barbarians" "courtesans" "drugs" "demonic sects" and murder could I guess set it off.
There are over 40K officially donated (excludes soldier/individual purchases) terminals in Ukraine, Poland bought >12K units, USAID ~5K. Poland covers subscription on _all of them_.
Anecdotes aren't data, but I'll chime in to agree - the locally sourced eggs have gone up in the last few years, but only from like $4.99 to $5.59.

The "generic egg" have gone from $0.25 a dozen during some price war 6-7 years ago to $6.99. That price has caused the local eggs to sell out first where they used to always be available.
Why is it even important to stay informed? In virtually all cases, there's very little that I can do about anything, so I'm just wasting energy by looking at the news.
> Playing by those rules

I agree that our system of government makes it extremely difficult to enact large changes. That is by design, however well considered that design might be. Nevertheless, those are the rules. Which means the president can't legally do whatever he wishes to anything "under his purview" upon gaining power.

Or rather, that was the case until the SCOTUS decided there are no laws the president need respect. What they have not pronounced upon is whether the law binds anyone acting under the direction of the president. Does their invention merely protect the president from prosecution or does it abrogate all laws he finds inconvenient? I find it hard to believe they'll take the second step, but we'll probably find out pretty soon. Is Musk a monarch or merely our president?
No - bullshit. It is not defensible to conflate the dismantling of entire agencies and departments with discretionary enforcement.

"But but but Democrats" isn't a response when we are dealing with COMPLETELY unprecedented actions.
That's a pretty cool website! What prompt do you use to determine what is and isn't significant?
The growable array type is an owning container, whereas a slice (in C++ and C# span) is a reference type, it doesn't actually own anything.

This type isn't either of those things, it's a hybrid, and Go tries to get away with that because it's a garbage collected language so people don't need to care as much about ownership.
It's not pointless at all- it's the core idea behind Stoic philosophy aka "the dichotomy of control," and has proven very effective at improving people's mental health through modern therapy methods like CBT and ACT.

One can still do everything in their power to prepare for, and mitigate things outside their control, while still keeping in mind what is in your control and isn't so you don't become emotionally dependent on outcomes outside your control, which is ruinous for mental health.

Having empathy, and caring about doing the right thing actually work better when you stop obsessing over and wasting all of your energy on things you cannot control.

Is 10 million a year a lot for lawyers? I thought a partner at a large law firm might get $ 500k or more per year, so paying a few lawyers and the assistants for all of them can get expensive quickly.
Is anyone building a public domain repository / AI training ground for old newspapers? Anything before 1930 has no restrictions. Newspapers.com has pretty good content but the interface and search is extremely lacking. Google News was abandoned a decade ago. This seems like something where AI could really help, for once. Not in training chatbots or whatever but actually just providing great search for articles in books, newspapers, and magazines.
Just paid $3.59/doz at Kroger here in Ohio about an hour ago (plain store brand). They were stocked pretty well.
That is a very good point. I was all complainy because I was trying to get a modern version of podman on my Pop home server and can't. It's as much podman's fault as Pop's though, and if I really wanted to stop complaining I'd put Fedora or whatever on it.
Why the p[artition?
Ah, but, “pdfs aren’t editable” and “pdfs cost more money to view”. People absolutely do use Word when they want documents to look the same, and will complain when the documents look different.
