I never said the checks and balances are working well... but the constitutional checks and balances not working well is a lesser problem than the executive branch just deciding that the president is also able to do the judiciary's job

It should be the trigger for country wide protests until the president is overthrown. It won't be of course. But it should.
IIRC the underlying assumption was that you should be reducing inflammation (RICE is almost all about reducing inflammation). Since then, we've learned that inflammation is a good thing, and helps things heal faster.
Yes.

It would be completely paralyzing were the executive largely staffed with those that wanted to paralyze it. Usually that's not the case.

I don't think that'd be case unless the orders were completely outrageous, in which case, yes, we absolutely want them disobeyed until adjudication could happen.
Embedded systems builders prefer non-GPL foundations in order to legally restrict access to their custom source code. Of course, that is a business decision. Tech-savvy buyers often prefer open access to the source code of the stuff they buy.

Apple, for example, uses an old derivative of FreeBSD and has added numerous proprietary extensions. For the majority of buyers that is fine.
Similar experience but I used a Privacy card and just closed it.
The phone is needed for caregivers to get the numbers. The CGM direct to Pump connection is all closed down as well, so features like remote Bolus don't exist in those systems.
Thanks for the feedback! changed that to "Play versus computer".
Good catch, totally missed that, will update
As someone who’s written a ton of PL/pgSQL code recently, I have been saving all my functions and their subsequent revisions in database migration files (Supabase). This feels like such a huge step backwards compared to browsing a well structured codebase with namespaces and modules. I know that Postgres provides schemas, and I am using them to a limited extent, but I am really speaking towards just having a tree oriented set of files on disk like I would with TypeScript, Golang, etc… and a way to refresh this tree against what’s currently active in my database. Had anyone else had a similar issue or better still, resolved it?
Lmsys is not a measure of intelligence. It's a measure of human preference. People prefer correct answers (assuming they are qualified to identify the correct one), but they also prefer answers formatted nicely for reading, for example, which has nothing to do with "intelligence". That is why "reasoning" models, which often do better on benchmarks, do not necessarily do correspondingly well on lmsys.
They can fundamentally break most asymmetric encryption, which is a good thing iff you want to do things that require forging signatures. Things like jailbreaks Apple can't patch, decryption tools that can break all E2E encryption, being able to easily steal your neighbor's Facebook login at the coffee shop...

Come to think of it, maybe we shouldn't invent quantum computers[0].

[0] Yes, even with the upside of permanently jailbreakable iPhones.

if the voters can't keep someone they like in office, there must also be strong restrictions on time served as congressional / governmental aides, or else those people will become even more powerful than they already are. far too many elected officials already appear to be nothing more than fronts for their unelected staff.

I didn't realize anyone still used that term with a straight face.

This is sorta my point, lots of DC folks use Signal under the assumption they're protected from government snooping. Sometimes I feel like it could well have the opposite effect (via the selection bias of Signal users).
Isn't it bundled with chrome?
That sounds a little like what I came up with a little while back. My lib can stream JSON to/from my own compact binary format that is easy to traverse/emit in C:

I find it reasonably useful given these conditions:

1. I know what I want.

2. I don't know off the top of my head how to accomplish it.

3. However, I do know enough to tell whether what the AI generated works right.

So for me it covers cases like "I know databases and I know programming, but I don't know enough Python to do a DB query without looking for docs. Have Copilot generate some working sample code, and then I can pick things up from there".

I'm sure bigger things can be done but I think just that alone is extremely useful. Saves a bunch of time on googling, making it past all the ads, the requests to subscribe, the far too long introductions, etc. Sometimes all I want is 20 lines of sample code and nothing else, and AI seems to do very well at that without leaving the IDE.
To be clear, even if MCAS was strictly necessary during all aspects of normal flight, it is not a defect in flight characteristics to require computerized control of flight control surfaces as long as the aircraft is properly designed for it (as opposed to acting with gross neglect for human life). See any fighter jet, or even a regular Airbus with its highly abstract fly-by-wire system.

On the other hand, maybe management knew the value perfectly well but were powerless and the hiring/firing/etc came from "above".
There are some arguements that were made in this post that don't matter at all.

One of those is: Cold start time

This isn't a big deal in the context of a web app. 8s vs 100ms. If you're scaling up a service. 8s is not a big deal in the scope of fixing a horizontal scaling issue.

Additionally, what it's considers bloat: Yes, you should optmize your app. It depends on the context of your application. Brining up a rest app that needs to stay up..who cares if it takes .5-1gb of ram.

Also, I didn't see it pointed out about the concerns of the lack of 3rd party frameworks. I find this disjointed and sparse frameworks to be more of a concern for a language/ecosystem than what the author pointed out.
Swift is open source, but SwiftUI and UIKit are both closed-source which is what I meant.
Yes please. My new job just provided me with a new phone, but all the models are just too big. I guess I’ll get used to it, but I’d rather have the current features in a Mini body.
It's not totally useless. I have more productive conversations about my aquarium with copilot than I do with aquarium related subreddits, and the results are about as useful. I treat them as interesting anecdotes worthy of further research.
What you want is a parliament with proportional representation. Parliaments don't experience gridlock nearly as often.
On the other hand, the popular power of the GOP is currently concentrated around a single person, someone who is also the oldest person to ever start a presidential term, and who does not lead a particularly healthy lifestyle. There is every chance that "What will Trump do during the 2028 election?" will be a question resolved by time and nature.

There is no one waiting in the wings to take over popularly if this happens. Previous people who have at various times looked like they might, have fallen mightily from grace in the eyes of the party, such as DeSantis.

It all falls apart without Trump. And Trump is an old man, doing a stressful job.
I couldn't get more than a few paragraphs into the article. This is possibly the most egregious example of unusably low information density I've ever seen.
The lower courts can be appealed to the higher courts, so the opinion of the supreme court was effectively that the president is immune if they say so, on a case by case basis.

It was a clever but blatant way to give their side immunity without giving it to Biden
It would be interesting to know the actual economics and legalities of franchising "Farmer McEgg" setups, to rural folks who wanted a side gig. Once someone had (say) 150 chickens set up and going, what would be spread between their weekly operating expenses, and weekly gross sales? How many hours/day would that typically take?

EDIT: Please read the article, especially the Feb. 19th update note at the beginning of it. Bird flu may not be so bad as it's been portrayed. And if the costs for comparatively tiny chicken farms were low enough, then their economics don't need to look good to Wall St. They're may-be-profitable little hobby farms which help local communities, while putting pressure on the greedy Big Egg oligopoly.
What feature(s) are you missing? NextDNS is pretty mature, I haven't ran into anything I needed.
I wish iPhone made smaller phones. At the moment we are also in AAPS for features like remote Bolus, which means only Android, which at least has some options. The Dexcom limitations are worked out using BYOD or similar work arounds.
Supposing you were an investor in either or both, is that the question you waited three months to ask?
Seconded! Also, Adventure Time and its spin-offs are fantastic and deeply weird at times. Over the Garden Wall is another one.
This is not the definition of bikeshedding.
The overlap of the “cares about battery chemistry” and “purchases the lowest tier device” is probably close to 0

The C1 modem gets a line because Wall Street has seen that expense for a decade now, so this is a “win” for them. Battery chemistry is completely 3rd party, so they’ll claim the battery life improvement

Controlled fusion does not require the conditions of the interior of a star, because the nuclear fuels involved are many orders of magnitude more reactive. All the Sun's initial deuterium (and all the lithium in the core) were burned away long ago.

CPUs can be easily developed in an ecosystem where annual updates and the ability to end-of-life hardware older than a decade are the norm. Cellular network opereators share none of those properties with Apple, and so any new modem chip designed to interoperate with carriers would necessarily be an order of magnitude more difficult to implement than an CPU that only needs to interoperate with Xcode would be.
Right so, you don’t need to talk to them. If you guess wrong about their gender identity, there’s no risk you insult them. That’s the difference.
That answer can be found in the question they asked. Care to take a crack at it?
Sounds like the message artists were giving when generative AI started blowing up.
Anecdotally, I ran into a similar solution "by chance".

Long ago, I worked for a dating site. Our CTO at the time was a "guest of honor" who was brought in by a family friend who was working in the marketing at the time. The CTO was a university professor who took on a job as a courtesy (he didn't need the money nor fame, he had enough of both, and actually liked teaching).

But he instituted a lot of experimental practices in the company. S.a. switching roles every now and then (anyone in the company could apply for a different role except administration and try themselves wearing a different hat), or having company-wide discussions of problems where employees would have to prepare a presentation on their current work (that was very unusual at the time, but the practice became more institutional in larger companies afterwards).

Once he announced a contest for the problem he was trying to solve. Since we were building a dating site, the obvious problem was matching. The problem was that the more properties there were to match on, the longer it would take (beside other problems that is). So, the program was punishing site users who took time to fill out the questionnaires as well as they could and favored the "slackers".

I didn't have any bright ideas on how to optimize the matching / search for matches. So, ironically, I asked "what if we just threw away properties beyond certain threshold randomly?" I was surprised that my idea received any traction at all. And the answer was along the lines of "that would definitely work, but I wouldn't know how to explain this behavior to the users". Which, at the time, I took to be yet another eccentricity of the old man... but hey, the idea stuck with me for a long time!
> iPhone 16e has the best battery life ever on a 6.1-inch iPhone
I don't want to be that person but there are hundreds of other similar frameworks doing more or less the same thing. Do you know why? Because writing a framework that orchestrates a number of tools with a model is the easy part. In fact, most of the time you don't even need a framework. All of these framework focus on the trivial and you can tell that simply by browsing the examples section.

This is like 5% of the work. The developer needs to fill the other 95% which involves a lot more things that are strictly outside of scope of the framework.
The improved battery life is BECAUSE there’s no MagSafe lol

You’ll need to answer for yourself: more battery life or MagSafe?
Absolutely disgusting. Everything in this tire fire of a press release is disgusting. I am ashamed to be American. I am ashamed I once worked for the USDA.

And what irony at the very bottom of the page: "USDA is an equal opportunity provider, employer, and lender." While everything above says this is a lie.

Then fork and maintain the project yourself, or maintain it as an extension.

I'd argue the maintainers interests are the only ones that matter and the freedom of open source is that if you as a user don't like what's going on just fork.
Is there someone who thinks that a man impeached for seeking personal benefits from Ukraine in exchange for help isn't going to do it again?
I had very similar sounding issues to the OP and thought it's probably something to do with a suboptimal SD card and/or overheating or memory. I also ended up using NextDNS and tbf really like it. Does a great job at a decent price and the admin is useful. I keep thinking I should just setup another pihole but NextDNS are at a very, very sweet price point that by the time I renew (tbf I think I fit within the free tier but wanted to support it), I just throw them another 20eur.
The SE was always a bad value prop. A used iPhone was always a much better value. The only reason I approve of the SE is that they get very cheap via the prepaid market (regularly <$100)
The energy needed to separate deuterium is many orders of magnitude less than the energy liberated by fusion of the deuterium.

The fuel cost is small compared to fission, but note that even with fission fuel is a small fraction of the total cost, so this doesn't save much.
> This makes that entire goal moot

I agree. Perhaps it's why I find the discussions like nonce-lengths and randomness sources almost insane (in the sense of willfully missing the forrest from the trees). Intelligence agencies have managed to penetrate the most secretive and powerful organizations known to man. Why would one think Signal's supply chain is impervious? I'd assume the opposite.
Come on. First place has gotta be the PowerBook 100.
Hmm I think so, at least initially? I know that Vulkan came to the Linux ports first but I think some of the Windows versions got it too.
Isn't this a bait and switch, that all the c kernel devs were complaining about? That it wouldn't be just drivers but also all new kernel code? The lack of candor over the goal of R4L and downplaying of other potential solutions should give any maintainer (including potential rust ones) pause.

Anyway, why just stop at rust? If we really care about safety, lets drop the act and go make everyone do formal methods. Frama-C is at least C, has a richer contract language, has heavy static analysis tools before having to go to proofs, is much more proven, and the list goes on. Or, why not add Spark to the codebase if we are okay with mixing langs in the codebase? Its very safe.
Article I, Section I states ‘All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives’; it says nothing about delegating those powers to independent agencies or to executive agencies. None of Congress’s enumerated powers state or imply that it may delegate its power to anyone else.

It would be pretty surprising if a law passed by Congress delegating to Charles Windsor its power to write the laws about taxes, borrowing money on the credit of the United States, regulating international and interstate commerce and so forth were constitutional.
Just guess man it’s fine.

A big... what?

Can you tell me what this new lingo is for someone who doesn't use the latest and shittiest marketing lingo?
This post reads like an ad/marketing copy. Even shows the pricing right off the bat.
I've definitely seen many examples of papers where the conclusions went far beyond what the actual results warranted. Scientists are incentivized to claim their discovery generalizes as much as possible.

But yes, it's normally: "science paper says an experiment in mice shows promising results in cancer treatment" then "University PR says a new treatment for cancer is around the corner" and "Media says cure for all cancer"

The only issue I had was minor and had to do with updating and breaking my system. That was easily solved with one command after update so script.
That issue was just fixed.
It is amazing to look back at policy from before the USSR collapsed and see how much more sensible it was. That speech is a good example of how, when the US political class were taking the situation a bit more seriously, they understood that Ukraine was important to Russia's interests and they shouldn't be trying to align it with NATO. Had they maintained that attitude in the intervening period instead of the big push to expand NATO that actually happened then this bloody and tragic land war in Europe would have been avoided.

And saying this is stabilising Russia is ridiculous. I may as well go back to motorest and tell him to relax because at worst a US invasion is only going to stabilise Canada. So far the US is the most responsible party [0] for around a million Russian casualties and there are concerning factoids [1] coming out that we had a nuclear near miss.

[0] We're being treated to the dark comedy where Russia doesn't even need to negotiate with Ukraine to get the war ended, they went straight to the US.

The UK and France also have nukes. I'm not sure about the UK, but France at least would shield NATO and EU with the nuclear umbrella even if the US leaves NATO. Finland, Romania and Poland might want to ask France if it minds sharing.. ideally before the alliance gets so weak that Putin decides to test our resolve.

Been running my PiHole on a ZeroPi[1] for many years without issues. Initially it was unstable, but turned out I had been scammed and the USB "charging cable" I had bought at the local electronics store had 1 Ohm resistance. Replaced it with a proper USB cable and it's been rock solid since. So solid I keep forgetting about it in fact.

Eggs cost too much.
I think the fear theory of economy would have so.ething to say about this. (Not an economis, just a participant).

People like Trump understand that inducing and the capitalizing on fear, praying in the weak, is a tried and true means of turning profits. The 'Fear Machine' seems like an electric power supply for a cell phone, if you have virtually unlimited supply for a very effective tool (like charging a cell phone), maybe you don't even need to measure the electric power you consume. You just keep recharging your phone. One can always fabricate fear and turn more profit, and it that works, why bother 'metering' it?
Sure, but they do protect from a massive swath of real attacks

Don’t guarantee complete safety but do eliminate a massive attack surface
I have considered flip phones as a replacement for a mini but it's just not the same thing at all when it comes to a smartphone.

It makes the phone less durable for a useless screen size, its pocket ability isn't much better because it is just bulkier (easier to enter in small pockets, but bigger deformation and feel) and it's just less convenient because you have to open it anytime you want to use it.

There is no replacement for a small phone, some manufacturer has to do it.
Not my Q but thanks for the interesting history.

Also, (for other readers), I'm a huge fan of Kagi. Highly recommended.
If the only problem in government is that agencies are overstaffed, this move addresses it. But, if it's anything other than that, it doesn't, and at some point a plan will have to be developed on an agency-specific basis to implement real fixes. By firing people and ruining morale, Musk is leaving the remaining people to do more work with fewer resources. Since I don't assume Musk or DOGE is going to spend the time to embed with the agencies and come up with innovative, tactical, agency-specific fixes, who will? The remaining workforce, who is demoralized, and understaffed? I'm not confident that will work.

Twitter seems like a dysfunctional company at this point, and I'm not sure it's a good model for how to fix government.
I donate to the party, and I donate at the individual limit. At that level they still care because people who donate at that level are connected with other people who donate at that level, and those people tend to reach out and coordinate. Periodically I get emails from other donors who ask me to reach out to such and such a person, a candidate or a party rep, and encourage that they take a look at X issue through a particular perspective.

I think more people would benefit from forming Super PACs and using that as leverage in pushing political change with parties.

AWS has a cool general approach to this problem (one badly behaving user effecting others on their shard)

https://aws.amazon.com/builders-library/workload-isolation-u...

The basic idea is to assign each user to multiple shards, decreasing the changes of another user sharing all their shards with the badly behaving user.

Fixing this issue as described in the article makes sense, but if they did shuffle sharding in the first place it would cover any new issues without effecting many other users.
Oh, I didn't realise separate platforms required separate licenses so that makes sense.
