Yes, that's exactly the same as what I do. When I tried new reddit, it looked awful to use and look at, so I always stayed at old reddit. Like you I don't see any of the crazy stuff. Just discussions in the subreddits I follow.
EU+UK has nukes and Aircraft carriers and even though minuscule to US, has the capacity to build more as the US security is no more.

Also, as it was revealed with the war in Ukraine, the Americans spend crazy money on their military but they don't get the best value for it. They failed to provide the Ukraine the necessary ammunition and apparently the costs were multiple times higher with no better outcome compared to the Russian ones.

In addition to that, the warfare changed significantly with the drones and its the Europeans(Ukraine + Turkey) who have the most experience with those - both in use and production.

Mentioning Turkey, it's actually one of the most formidable militaries with very capable military industry complex. Although it has it's differences with EU, it is an EU candidate country and its economy is fully integrated with EU.

Later on when things calm down with Russia, EU-Russia is actually a very fruitful relationship because Russia and EU are perfect match(one has the resources, the other has the technology) and that's why Europeans didn't want to believe that the war is possible.

There are many more reasons not to be pessimistic about Europe too.

When I save things to Google Drive, my data could legally be snooped on in three ways:

1. My national government, by court order or sketchy secret court order.

2. Google, who are in the business of tracking and profiling.

3. The US government, by court order or sketchy secret court order.

A person might hope cloud storage provided by a national government would reduce the snooping by two thirds.

Of course, that analysis ignores risks like the service getting hacked, my account getting hacked, and suchlike - which some would say are much bigger risks.

Let me know what you think, will ya? I'm curious as to how you'd evaluate the quality of that report.

Also note the follow-up prompt I gave it. This thing needs as much detail as you can give it, and small changes to your prompt can hugely influence the end result.
Or, depending on your use case, you do it in one step and ask an LLM to extract data from a PDF.

What you describe is obviously better and more robust by a lot, but the LLM only approach is not "wrong". It’s simple, fast, easy to setup and understand, and it works. With less accuracy but it does work. Depending on the constraints, development budget and load it’s a perfectly acceptable solution.

We did this to handle 2000 documents per month and are satisfied with the results. If we need to upgrade to something better in the future we will, but in the mean time, it’s done.

Fully with you on dropping Windows, and I don’t think cloud really has positive ROI vs building or hosting in a lot of cases. There are a lot of good cases though, scaling, access etc.
Trying to apply the same idea of history to something as abstract as a government, as to an individual is impossible.

The current people and their representatives did not do those things, so acting as if you are doing the right thing by implementing policy that advances one group over another is immoral. It's just inventing a fictional justification, no better than dark skin being a mark of sin.

No technical moat, no money moat. Anybody can get to SOTA AI fastly, with reasonable money (no U$S 500B datacenters, no 5 to 10B cash in the bank required), just like anybody could develop the next TikTok or Instagram.

The most important thing is that new hardware is most probably demonstrated now NOT to be able to add any significant moat for future frontier models. If you own or have access to relatively old GPU datacenter level hardware (like the ones offered in many public clouds and/or private offerings -think old crypto farms pivoting - everywhere), you should be good provided to develop frontier models in a snap (2-3 months), from the scratch.

There's quite new thing, distillitation of models that can be done using R1, and now you could train a relatively week model -not yet frontier - but you could upgrade the thing right to the SOTA level - right now o3 probably - just distilling it with a R1 reasoner. This changes the game because you already have lots of advanced publicly downloadable models, plus whatever you can train, then you can now just begin to distill stuff seriously improving intelligence in those, it is so new that we have yet to see how it develops in the next weeks, months.
You can consider as many dimensions as you want. As I mentioned, for some time we had three papers regularly delivered, for additional perspective.

However typically, a single dimension is a useful first-order approximation[1], and so that's what's done in politics as well. As with all approximations, sometimes it works well and other times it does not.

It's kind of hard to get hold of a PDP-11 these days. Even getting an OS, compiler etc is not that easy.

If you like the PDP-11 then you get the same qualities slightly restricted in the MSP430 and slightly enhanced in the 68000.

But, really, just forget all those relics and learn either RISC-V (the best answer) or else one of the half-dozen Arm variations. I'm partial to ARM7TDMI myself for sentimental reasons doing a lot with it in the mid 2000s. The Thumb mode is probably slightly easier to learn than the original Arm mode, but neither is as satisfactory as RISC-V.
FYI, there is already a type of deployment called "sovereign cloud" where data exports are controlled by the country and already under works by major providers.

Do you live in NYC? I do, and I think what the person you’re responding to is pointing out is that watching social media videos of crimes in NYC gives you a wildly distorted perspective on what it feels like to live here. Yes, crime is a problem, just like in every single city in the world. But basically no one that I know has been victimized or even been a witness to the kinds of crimes you’re talking about. It’s a huge city, and these incidents are statistically rare.

That said, we are all traumatized and have PTSD, but it’s over the ridiculous cost of living :)
Installing a codec pack was one of my first tasks when setting up a new Windows installation in that era. K-Lite was a popular choice.

Then WMP would play ogg, though you'd probably have switched to MPC and Winamp.
I would suggest checking out their Table of Hardware [0]. You can filter it by various fairly detailed criteria.

From my experience, given the local availability constraints, I often only get a handful of practical options to choose from.

For something like a successor to TP-Link Archer C7 with WiFi 6 support, I have chosen TP-Link Archer AX23 [1] and it seems okay to me so far as a cheap wired-to-wireless edge device.

The performance is the point. 8-bit CPUs are so slow assembler could be - often had to be - hand-optimised for speed.

You can't do that on modern CPUs, because the nominal ISA has a very distant relationship to what happens inside the hardware.

The code you write gets optimised for you dynamically, and the machine is better at it than you are.

You may as well write in a high-level language, because the combination of optimising compilers with optimising hardware is probably going to be faster than any hand-written assembler. It's certainly going to be quicker to write.

The 68000 is a very nice, clean machine to code for, but the main point of doing it today is historical curiosity. It's quite distant from modern computing.

Nobody wants less flexibility, rigid plans and higher maintenance costs. I think what you really want is a big house with lots of space away from other people and since you can't have your cake and eat it too you've sacrificed everything else.

by the title, I thought this article was saying that the company increased production efficiency through AI, which led to a surplus of staff.

but:

Very naive. The services are potentially replaceable, the data is not.

Winning elections does not mean they get to do whatever they want. There are laws, rules, and norms. When the Dems won, the Republicans did everything in their power to stop them from implementing their platform (some of that setting up the violation of norms, rules, and laws we see today).
To me, asciidoc is effectively another markdown variant, but one that is less readable and considerably less interoperable than other flavors.

I'd rather pair markdown with an independent template language, if I need programmability. (Or script tags, though that's only useful in contexts where you'll view it rendered and script tags aren't blocked.)
Good job on raising that issue. TIL SSTP.

> Nobody actually cares about security for packages that are not in the default install.

Probably an exaggeration, but it's clear there are some packages that are insecure out-the-box.
In 40 years I have never, outside of documentations about the second world war and fictional movies in that area, seen this salute. It is 100% a Nazi salute, that starts by hitting the heart and then stretching the arm. Nothing else comes even close to this that could explain such a behavior. If you don't see it you are either very ignorant or plain ... .

Also meeting the AFD that is under investigation because of it's Nazi ideologies makes it clear that he has a very good understanding of what that salute means.
> I think projects could improve by moving more of their regular workflow to invite-only mediums-- private repositories, issue trackers, etc. If someone wants to complain about your project then they can do it on their own forum, they don't get to use the projects tools as a platform to crap on the project and deprive the contributors of their freedom to ignore the noise.

Yessss!!! Or, in other words: Stop to make everything social media, stop making 'like' buttons your god, and get real again.

That would be sooooo helpful. For many parts of life.

You won't loose so much imho. It's a lot overhyped. Sure you lose all the people who are basically there for the social media factor. Well... I see no problem with that. Their perceived worth is much much higher than their real one. Social media is all about a big show. Not about actually delivering actual value.

Btw, in some regards, the private mailing list is a lot more 'open' than proprietary cloud services instead (i.e. discord).
I agree that there is no perfect test, but throwing up our hands and using racism seems the exact opposite to how we should respond to that challenge.
The "Updated" seemingly refers to when anything on the page changes, not just something in the news release. In this case, the change was to add a banner to the top of the page indicating that the content is archived/old, which triggered the "Updated" to change.

The most recent change before this one was as recent as November 2024. The change made at that time was to switch a phone number in the footer out for an email address, which also triggered "Updated" to change.

TL;DR: not gaming Google, just made a regular change

This take seems to me to be a classic case of the US tendency to irrational suspicion as first described in the Hofstadter essay The Paranoid Style in American Politics.

I'm not American but I do subscribe to The Atlantic, which seems to be owned by some kind of philanthropic trust with a do-gooding billionaire at the helm. As a European, that's plenty good enough for me. Financial incentives are important but they're not everything. We also sometimes need to trust in the good faith of professionals who take their jobs seriously. In this case journalists. Journalism is itself a corporate body of sorts, i.e. a guild. Its mission is to seek truth, just as the medical guild's mission is to heal. Personally, I choose to take both groups of professionals at their word.

A subscription to The Atlantic is a great deal, by the way. The volume of content is manageably low and the quality is consistently excellent.
I think there is a conjunction of factors at play. Only slower film available means no clear images of action. No digital copies means that most pictures have had LOTS of time to deteriorate before being digitised and reproduced. Most people see images from the 30s as a one copy of a picture the great great grandpa had in a shoebox kept in a moist cellar and no negatives to recover.

I think most people would have had contact with old pictures from newspaper and books that did not prized image quality so you mostly see bad quality pictures with low dynamic range.

The most important pictures of the olden eras, in an artistic setting, would also be experimental photography which is not necessarily concerned with sharpness and traditional qualities, so you see weird stuff.

And, the main culprit, as for most of society misconceptions. Movies and tv shows, you have to age and crap out a picture to look old. I am certainly that the screwed up videotape effect will skew a lot of the expectation of old footage from the 80s-90s.

Put all of that together, there is where I think the expectation comes from.

I have the book Great War, Photographic Narrative. With images from the first world war, the quality of some of the images is outstanding. Those same images would've look terrible on old mass produced books and newspapers.
