One token request can produce N tokens. We have it configured where N = 500, so most users will be requesting more tokens fairly infrequently.

Federal Government doesn't intervene because it effectively delegates the decision to the States.

In this case we have the Federal Government simply choosing to ignore the law, period.

The TikTok law was meant to force divesture to a US company. The Supreme Court ruled on the legality of it at the very last minute, so there is broad bipartisan support for more time to find an acquirer, including Biden saying he won't enforce it on the last day in office.

They are trying one last gamble to keep the bubble from popping. Most of the software companies don't make sense unless you can fire half your staff.

Every institution is built of people and therefore inherits their faults. The notion of so called “outsiders” is the intellectual equivalent of shrugging your shoulders and giving up because solving human problems is complicated, and let’s be very clear here: what has been done already and is planned by these outsiders to be done is almost universally terrible. If you want to argue that point, you’re not only arguing with every credible expert in a variety of fields, you’re arguing with the outsiders themselves, who advertise the fact that they want to crash the plane into the river because the pilots have grown too out of touch with regular passengers like you and them, whatever the hell that means. It’s a phrase that means nothing and therefore invites the listener to fill in whatever boogeymen they imagine are causing the problems, and while change will come, I’m highly skeptical that much if any will be good.

It doesn’t help that as I outline elsewhere, such outsiders are the preferred actors by people who feel they won’t have to deal with the fallout. People on private insurance aren’t afraid of the government cratering Medicare, because they don’t need it. Let’s be super clear about something else; if you’re okay with unqualified idiots fucking about with systems neither they or you understand simply because you won’t lose anything, you are not pro-disruption. You’re just selfish.

Greaseweazle + any old standard floppy drive (3.5"/5.25"/8") is the way to go, for having a usb attached floppy drive.

It might be noteworthy if the author had an interesting problem to tackle, previously used a convoluted stack to accomplish it but then stripped it down to basics - but no, this is just “I wrote HTML to make a website”. I’d rather read “I used a hammer to hit a nail”.
PostgreSQL psql SQL injection (FIXED)
Logging in to a search engine weirded me out at first, but after about a week I was so pleased with the results that I’ve been happily paying for almost a year now.

I honestly feel like any major free search engine is probably doing more to try to track you anyway.

And if you’re going to search something you want to be anonymous, you can just like use another search engine. I honestly haven’t run into the situation where I needed to.

I do worry that some day someone will be able to see how often I forget basic syntax for some JavaScript or Python method - or how often I can’t be bothered to type out a full domain and just search to navigate to it - but that’s a price I’m also willing to pay.

It's extortion, pure and simple. Hold the charges over Adams' head and ensure he does exactly what Musk/Trump want. We want these charges to go forward as Adams is corrupt as they come and a simply awful mayor.
Sure. There’s overlap with a lot of things. This developer said that it was (paraphrased) ‘hard for him to take people like mechanics seriously because they lack his superior debugging skills.’ There was no attempt to draw similarities. He was simply saying that developer smarts were the best smarts and they trumped all other smarts.

I can’t tell you how many times developers have tried to explain cooking concepts to me knowing I’m a classically trained and experienced chef. Or explain design to me knowing I have a design degree and years of experience doing it. Some developers just have unending hubris.
I'm all for acknowledging that we are at the bottom of the slippery slope and have been for some time

but I think people should be focusing on what they can do with it, people put their energy into arguing about it or these semantical distinctions

when the reality is that we will have this supreme court, or its rulings, for the next 50 years at least. like, okay, work with that

you don't love all federal agencies, only some. so instead of lamenting the ones you find beneficial, focus on the ones you hate and Chevron the shit out of them. sure, go ahead and start with obscure regulations that moderately inconvenience you, but go further and get their entire charter declared unconstitutional, shoot, get the interstate commerce clause interpretation adjusted if that's what you feel like. we know what this supreme court is going to do, stop worrying about whether you agree and worry about how you can use it, for example

I don't know why people use their energy any other way, this is the most egalitarian Oligarch-level event in history.

ByteDance has made it clear they don't want to sell.

Yea. Why would they be sick? We only discovered _antibodies_ in their blood.

No, I don't think BQ does a lot of caching for you even if you re-run the same query.
I think the idea is that you're reading out the color of the printed word, not the word itself (despite the fact that the word is the name of a different color).

So you might have, in a red font, the word "blue", followed by the word "green" in yellow letters. The correct response is to say out loud "red, yellow". This is hard to do when the words are in your native language. So if the words are in Russian, it's an easier task for someone who doesn't read that language, because they aren't distracted by the meaning of the word and can just see the colors.

As a person who left the US almost 9 years ago (part of my reason was I saw the writing on the wall and knew a big political mess was coming. Part was similar to you with wanting good health care), one thing that's bothering me about a lot of the nü-emigrants from the US is they're bringing the politics with them that they're claiming to escape from. I've been feeling American politics creep more and more into my life here despite thinking I escaped them nearly a decade ago, and it's due to more Americans moving abroad and not really adapting to the mindset of their new home.

There are some good people who leave out there. But it's feeling like the world is becoming more and more uniform with this bizarre political worship and cult of personality all centered on America.

Perfect Pitch Can Be Learned: Study Challenges Long-Held Beliefs
>Learning fast and accurate absolute pitch judgment in adulthood

https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13423-024-02620-2
No, you've misunderstood. What people with perfect pitch are doing is a fast and more fluent version of what the other commenter describes. They may not experience or describe it that way but it's an area of interest for a lot of people and the research is clear.

> can't help but know immediately and automatically what note a sound has

Well, and what note does a sound have? What is "a note?" Is it just a name for a specific frequency? Then why enharmonics. Is that D a little flat, or are you just tuned to A 442? Oh actually we're in 24TET over here, that's simply a quarter tone.

Sound is just a sound, you need other context to make a note. To infer a note from a pitch, someone (with perfect pitch or not) knows already or is assuming a lot of context that makes that work.

But that context isn't universal, and if it has changed they'll need to find out how and adapt to it. The fact that they can adapt is because there's no universal mapping from frequencies to notes, either in their mind or anywhere.

I think that being open to working with others is implicit in deciding to maintain a widely used project like Linux. There's tons of open source tools which are explicit "this is something you are free to use but I created it for my own purposes and don't intend to support it"; however, that isn't how Linux presents itself.

That is to say, if you are building an tool as a collaborative open source project, then that implies that you intend to collaborate.
"universally considered to be one of the worlds' fairest" is not accurate, and "good by Asian standards, but not as good as the North European average" is more like it.

It is not stereotype but simple fact to state that Ghosn was held for questioning for a ridiculously long time by Western standards: 129 days over two periods in the Tokyo Detention House, of which 53 before indictment. Eight hours a day questioning, with no defense lawyer allowed to be present. You might somehow incriminate yourself if that was done to you too.

Ghosn was absolutely a special case: it was extremely plausible that he wouldn't get a fair trial there, as he was the highest-profile (non-Asian) foreigner in Japanese industry, with saturation international media coverage, and moreover there was major protectionism within the two car companies against operationally merging with Renault and actually having plant closings and major layoffs in one of Japan's most sacred industries, which also reportedly incurred high-level opposition from government. (This is not commenting on the specifics of Ghosn's financial case.)

And again, the fact that few high-profile white-collar cases go to trial but end in a plea (which you say is a virtue of the Japanese system) makes it hard to predict what might have happened, both evidence admissibility, verdict and sentence. Certainly unlikely he would have gotten a suspended sentence, if convicted.

UPDATE: Japan’s prosecutor reportedly repeatedly broke the law by leaking details of the case against Ghosn. Which pretty much corroborates both "wouldn't have gotten a fair trial" and "high-level political opposition".

UPDATE 2: RP was one of a handful of Nissan insiders who knew about the planned arrests beforehand: "I was called into Hari Nada's office…and told there was going to be a dramatic arrest. Arranged for maximum publicity... When you lie to someone, to get them back into a particular jurisdiction, so that you can have them arrested in a very public manner, that says a lot about what's going on." [0]

If it wins the war it isn't a waste. Sometimes we can do better sometimes a lot of processing is needed. I refuse to limit the future which makes your question a stupid question. Maybe nothing will come up maybe it will.
nope, but I encounter it a lot. For example, the default cargo template or whatever just gives you a non-copyleft license https://github.com/cargo-generate/cargo-generate . There are a lot of questionable defaults in this space, like the ecosystem encouraging people to use a centralized repository like crates.io which requires github (now owned by microsoft).

I figure it's because the companies and orgs that started working with and investing in the rust ecosystem start by contributing to the compiler, which is non-copyleft and just try to extend that because it works to their advantage. You see this with a lot of languages/ecosystems with corporate sponsors, but also just because it gives you a unique selling point in an area where copyleft software dominates. Like, there will always be some company (like imagine a defense company) that absolutely refuses to publish all of their changes, so that represents a niche that can sustain smaller permissive projects.

I think that for an individual corporation, permissive is better and they won't make a decision to go copyleft unless forced. But for the ecosystem as a whole, GPL is better for business (especially when it comes to something like a kernel) because it forces companies to publicly fork over their drivers and collaborate, and reduces the competitive advantage vs companies that would otherwise not publish their changes if it was permissive.

That was probably too many words. Anyways, it would be nice to see some of this improved, i think it's a great language and will probably replace C++.
I hope all the people working in tech today realize that once you let the executive ignore laws that you dislike, it's a very clear path to them ignoring laws that protect you and your companies. You WILL be a target eventually and nobody is going to protect you.

This is a slow-motion disaster but too many people are complacent because they think it's not going to affect them. No matter your political leanings we cannot allow a constitutional crisis to go unchecked. Things that we take for granted dissolve rapidly if institutions start grabbing power without consequences.

It's insane that Congress isn't stepping-up here.
Apparently weaponizing the government and lawfare is OK if you're Trump, or Musk, but bad otherwise.

My read is that the issue is that the employees were approved to run the SSH daemon as a client. The people approved were being approved to view/access data that perhaps they have no need to, nor the vetting or experience to know what data they're dealing with.

Which is a valid concern. The people approving access and the people with access should have clear knowledge, experience and intent on how they will use the tool and for what purpose.

For verifiable domains, this really is the sweet spot.
