If all you want is the plaintext logs, there's no need to bother with special products. Just point syslog in the right direction as if it was 1995. Everything can log to syslog already. Things like Splunk, Graylog and Kibana are mostly for visualization and query interfaces.

I think Tenet could be enjoyable in the same way that Primer is enjoyable, but I found it unwatchable at the time I tried to watch it. I'm sure if I watched it at the right time I would like it.
I mostly do indoor, but outdoor has those issues. I usually try to work within code but here the fines are low and people usually just opt to pay the fine. And yes, my own outside door scrapes across the floor now after two winters and I need to fix it, but haven't found the time. But it looks so much better than the aluminium doors most people get.

That is clearly not the case in the US. With their repudiation of Sen. Sanders, the Democratic Party deliberately steered away from "pure" (whatever this ill-defined pejorative term may mean) and lost big. And when I say this, I mean look at what they did when they had power, not what they said--words can't put dinner on the table. Despite an electorate so hungry for change that they won with one of the most uninspiring candidates in recent memory, what they did was...nothing. Nothing to curb the moneyed interests. Nothing to help the working class. To me, the symbolic picture of this attitude was Sen. Sinema's No vote on the minimum wage increase (complete with curtsy, like a big middle finger to the working class). The result? Trump got about the same number of votes as he did in '20, but won this time, because the do-nothing Democrats got 10 million fewer. Voters didn't switch. They didn't turn out. Apathy for their uninspiring program--not "purity"--killed them.

Revisiting Docker Hub Policies: Prioritizing Developer Experience
unlikely: people cost much more (repairing vs automated manufacturing)

second: even if it may make up for it, the manufacturers profits still will be reduced
Absolutely.

If you want to see how charity is done properly, watch the youtube vid (watch?v=490TsUYe5f4) of Pat Morita telling the story about how the legendary comedian Redd Foxx gave him ~$4000 (IIRC) and said that he never wanted to hear about it, but that Morita should pay it forward to someone else some day.

That is the way the world could work, instead of how the wealthy have historically treated it, and are still treating it with even more vehemence here in 2025. The joke's on them, however, for their reaping such unhappiness in their lives is their own doing in the face of how the universe works on its most sublime level. They, of course, conflate pleasure with happiness, which are incomparable.

Joy and happiness require a compassionate input; nothing else will suffice.

And we ALL reap what we sow, for good or ill. It's in the fabric of the human universe.

I wish you all peace and happiness and success, my friend.
I've build all types of JavaScript applications, little, medium and large, vanilla, react, vue, hell even ThreeJS, D3.js and many other libraries and frameworks...

Nothing compares to how nicely integrated Blazor is. I don't have to waste my time "turning on my JavaScript brain" and thinking of all the nuances, I was just doing C# for the back-end logic, and I can continue using C# for the front-end. I can continue with the same mindset and skill set. It's drastically more productive.

I can take any developer who has zero front-end experience but tons of C# experience and have them building very capable web applications, and nobody using them would tell the difference.

WASM was birthed out of trying to make JavaScript even faster.

That's even worse. But honestly fine by me because I doubt they're legally enforceable in most places.
I'm not a lawyer, but the legal claim made appears to me to be on shaky ground. In my understanding, there has to be actual damages arising out of an action. "I could have been hacked, so I had to spend time/money on it" isn't actual damages unless they were _actually_ hacked.

They're kind of an evolutionary branch not taken.

The nearest analog that comes to mind is Slashdot's system of taking submissions but having a small number of editors actually making the posts, which often synthesized different articles, so the discussion was about the story more than a specific link.

That might have eventually popularized the kind of "reverse blog" you're talking about, but Blogger/MovableType made it a lot easier and normal to host your own blog, while vote-driven aggregators like Digg and Reddit took out the editorial aspect.

Then we ground everything up into a slurry of "user-generated content" on centralized platforms...

Why wouldn't an ambulance come? My experience (this is US) is I expect the local emergency phone numbers to work and the ambulance to come.

A bonfire is what I want people doing. they have fun and with some care is safe enough. They can enjoy the power outage instead of complain about how awful life is.
But the point of the feature is to write the words the user dictates, isn't it? So if it correctly recognized the word "racist", why would it replace it with "Trump"? The application must know that's not what the user dictated.

The most likely explanation to me is that Apple probably has a feature which automatically replaces expletives so that users don't accidentally send messages with offensive language that was not intended. It's probably a simple substitution which maps known expletives to suitable replacements. A disgruntled developer probably added this substitution and, for whatever reason, it didn't get caught until it hit production. I don't know if this is true, but it seems like a reasonable explanation to me.
A triage system is essential to determining your archival strategy! We can produce information faster than we can produce information storage systems, so we need to be discerning! Random gibberish is less valuable than a screenshot you took in 2015, and that screenshot from a decade ago is probably less valuable than your tax returns or your treatise on the meaning of life! If it's worth keeping, it's worth putting some time into every few years to make sure it's copied somewhere.
I self-host Cal.com and broadly agree: it works great, has a clean look, and is super customizable.

That said, getting it running was kind of a nightmare. I forget the details, but I had to edit a few different codebases and Docker images. And just the `docker build` required a database running and the frontend build kept OOMing my computer and failing with esoteric errors when I tried Podman.
To the end-developer it doesn't matter that JavaScript is hooked anywhere, the only time it matters is if that code is bugged and completely broken, or insanely low performance, which I really doubt.

I like it because the submissions are easy and I think curated / QC’d. I thought Kagi was going to do more with https://kagi.com/smallweb but it’s kind of like going to https://wiby.me/ and hitting “surprise me”, which everyone should do at least once a day.
I don't see the word "consciousness" in the article. I thought that was the thing to figure out to understand the emergence of the mind.
Definitely some level of human curation... that's what made del.icio.us so good IMHO. You knew the links posted had a level of (probably nerdy) oversight.

I think you're talking about the fact that the gravitational force inside of a symmetric shell of matter is zero. But the potential is not, as can be (and has been, I believe) demonstrated quite easily by just putting a clock in a hole and measuring the time dilation relative to the surface.

Sorry you are at war. Good luck.
I found a recruiter that specializes in freelance/contract work in the tech industry. They negotiated my rate for me (which was 30% hire than what I was asking) and got me a very nice long-term contract (going on 7 years now).

They subcontracted me out for a year (and paid full benefits like health insurance) and after a year I started billing the company directly. I even found out what they were charging the company, reduced it by around 25% and still gave my self a 25% raise.

Money is a fascinating technology. To me, the most fascinating. And like any technology it’s not evil, it’s just a tool that can be used for things, good or evil.

The problem is this modern (very American) idea that having money in someway is a sign of human value.

But saying money is evil is as problematic as saying having money is good. It makes it hard to use the technology to solve hard problems, that it’s good at solving, when the technology itself is attributed with those moral judgements.
That's perfectly fine, that's what Blazor does. I'm looking to see it become adopted by a project like Django. I think the more we see WASM being adopted by key web frameworks, the more innovation we'll see in the WASM space outside of just a new runtime someone made.
I worked with Capricorn [1] for several years, and these topics were always top of mind there.

They have the goal of making money first and foremost, but subject to the investments themselves being good for society, and serving LPs who do the same. E.g. they work closely with Skoll Foundation [2] and Skoll Global Threats Fund [3].

Another fund that we worked closely with was Omidyar Network [4]. They have more of a hybrid model of investing + philanthropy under one org. It meant they could do some projects that we couldn't at Capricorn, but also made it harder to measure concrete outcomes, which LPs tend to want.

This seems unlikely just because the SR-71 never got hit with a missile.

They might have been afraid of the XB-70 getting hit but it likely never would have just because it turned out to be so hard to hit things at 70,000+ feet traveling at Mach 3+.
I blame this on the recent development of "open source as a marketing strategy". I'm getting tired of "open source" products that have restrictive licenses, or that are open source but lock features behind paywalls and subscription plans. It seems open source is just an excuse to ask for "stars" and to get some good will from potential users.

The Open Source world has become what the startup world became: more posers than supporters.

If you're worried that people will steal your code, your idea, or use your product for free, then don't claim it's "open source" and say "source available for auditing purposes" and start paying for contributions.

I'm wondering about the practical implications of integrating web crawling. Could this, in theory, be used solely for reading papers from Sci-Hub and producing valid graduate-level research?

It could be useful for comparing reports built using DeepSeek R1 vs. GPT-4o and other large models. The code being open source might highlight the limitations of different LLMs much faster and help develop better reasoning loops in future prompts for specific needs. Really interesting stuff.
Since you've ignored my direct question, you encourage me to assume you don't care about the data but are cherry-picking citations which affirm your beliefs.

To double check, by "native" you do mean people born in Britain, right? Like, a British woman born in Birmingham whose parents were born in Pakistan is a ethnic minority who is a native, right?

The discrimination in those two articles appears to be on the basis of economics, not specifically ethnicity.

To give an example from Florida, Tarpon Springs has a lot of people with Greek ancestry because over a century ago their ancestors immigrated there to work in the sponge industry. It was cheaper to bring in experienced divers from Greece than to train local people. The local demographics are still very different from the rest of the state.

Your Sun citation does not say why the 700 Brit students were denied a place at medical schools. Was there space and funding for them? The "it will take a decade for extra places at medical school to produce more doctors" suggests there is not space.

Your Telegraph article concerns hiring white people vs. an ethnic minority candidate. It says nothing about prioritizing foreigners over people born in Britain.

Of only white British people are native then the Sun article doesn't say how many of the 700 Brit students denied a place were white or ethnic. It doesn't even say how many are foreigners.

> as an excuse to maintain mass immigration

That's a red herring. Even if they shut down immigration to a trickle, you know they are going to include medical staff as a special exception, right? That demand is already the reason why doctors have relatively mobile world-wide employment.
Are you contending that's what happened here? This is not a leading question, I genuinely do not know and am trying to learn more.

Very succinct and powerful words. In Islam we have something called Zakat which is effectively donating 2.5% of your wealth yearly to the most impoverished people. In that you're not looking for a reward in this life but that it's going to help you fellow man in the struggles that they're in. The reality is any of us could be on the other side, less fortunate than we are. We're truly blessed.

> An Apple spokeswoman blamed the issue on phonetic overlap between the two words, and said the company was working on a fix.

I don't envy the spokeswoman her job, but this is hilariously off base from a linguistics perspective:

* /tɹʌmp/

* /ˈɹeɪ.sɪst/

One word is two syllables, the other is one. One word has a bunch of sibilance and the other has none. One word has close front vowels (including a diphthong!) and the other has a single open back vowel. The only thing they have in common is the /ɹ/, but even that has a slightly different character when in a cluster with /t/.

There's absolutely no way this was an accident of phonetics.
Xilinx has a very highly optimized core for the FFT. You are restricted to power of 2 sizes. Which usually isn't a problem because its fairly common to zero pad an FFT anyway to avoid highly aliased (i.e. hard-edges) binning.

The downside of implementing directly in hardware, the size would be fixed.
I remember hearing about logic to help with deinterleaving the results of the butterfly network after the FFT is done.
Silly comfortable feel-good lies. I hate the situation just like the next guy, but he is a symptom of larger issues in societies currently, not really restricted to US (look at who keeps winning European elections recently).

Addiction to quick dopamine kicks (from social networks aka soul cancer for most, and earlier from reality shows) manifests also like that, people subconsciously seek them and patience and long term focus diminishes. How many people here are properly addicted in same way via ie doom scrolling. US public education still struggles to teach scientific views on world (creationism push in the south), don't expect masses of highly intelligent critically thinking people coming out of them.

I personally think also PC, LBGTQ+ topics etc. were pushed too hard too fast for most people's taste, creating quiet but effective resistance and backslash that only manifests anonymously in ie elections. Some of MeToo headliners were female sexual predators themselves, you really can't come up with more effective way how to destroy it quickly for good.

Elite is what it is because its comparatively small in numbers. And echo chambers can easily make one feel like whole world is like that. At the end this is democracy too, like it or not.

a long while ago i was considering a centrally monitored physical security system for my home. that was long before you could easily host your own security cameras with convenient mobile alerts.

The salesman comes to my home. wife and kids are around. He sits at my dinner table and begins with asking me "is your family important to you?"

to which i replied "please leave now". needless to say i didn't buy anything from him.

I have no time with shady sales tactics and manipulation. i can totally relate to this article.
I have a strong antipathy for money. So far this has worked in keeping it mostly far away from me.
Those are great questions.

For the first, the answer is "Can I do more good with the money than the bad that has been done to make it?" I don't have an answer for that, but I guess the cop-out is to say, "It depends on what good you're gonna do."

That said, I wouldn't get into business with those folks, but that's just my hard line stance on compassion vis a vis what they spend their money on.

For the second, if it is focused on more efficient means of utilizing carbon-based fuel, then it could be, but the problem is that increasing efficiency usually leads to more use, historically. That said, I'd vote "No" on that one, too.

SDL is only a graphics framework in that it gives you a window, input events, and either a putpixel/blit functions or OpenGL. It does not have graphics primitives, like what used to be called "glut" in OpenGL itself (but supporting normal platforms, glut supported SGI Irix, BeOS and OS/2, but felt that Win32 was too niche to care about, and they never voluntarily cared about linux). Like even now it seems to think that this whole IOS and Android kerfuffle will blow over soon, not worth any effort.

SDL is like a (much better) glut that has sane platform support (and audio).

PanGUI gives you graphics primitives, nicely done and executed and seems to have a much saner selection of platforms (and also gives you audio), as well as supporting a great many languages to code in.
in austria/germany the problem is that cultural expectation is that people get paid by seniority, and also based on their experience and qualifications, regardless of the actual requirements for the job. it is also assumed that no one wants to do work that is below their qualifications.

that is, a 50 year old isn't even asked what their salary expectations are, it is simply assumed to be higher than what they want to pay, or rather, they can't bring themselves to pay someone like that less than they think is appropriate for their age. combine that with the perception that older people are less flexible and unwilling/unable to learn new stuff, and you end up with the belief that older people are expensive and useless or overqualified.
