It's good at taking code of large, complex libraries and finding the most optimal way to glue them together. Also, I gave it the code of several open source MudBlazor components and got great examples of how they should be used together to build what I want. Sure, Grok 3 and Sonnet 3.7 can do that, but the GPT 4.5 answer was slightly better.
Brave lets you add custom filter lists and write your own filters. The blocker can also do eg. CNAME uncloaking, which even full-fat uBO can't do on Chromium.
What’s bad is the example Trump is setting for future presidents of United States. Also another worse thing is he is installing all yes man/woman who seem clueless in their posts
Oh wow, makes sense that the video was clipped. The first video I clicked had the entire segment so I guess I got lucky.

I can understand his frustration as well. But, he's a leader at war and lives of his men depend on his actions. The moment is much much bigger than him.
Mozilla has been around for 25 years at this point, they'd be as thrilled as anyone if this were the case. What they have is the structure that their legal counsel recommended. Anyone can play fast and loose with tax law up until the point that the IRS comes knocking.

Russia's opinions on Ukraine's alliances do not give them the right to invade a sovereign nation.
The problem is, Fico and his alikes are popular in Slovakia. They are not anomaly, they truly represent what majority finds appealing.

Many if not most Slovakians want to be like Fico, earn money like him and be like him.

It can be beaten, but it is not an anomaly. Not even historically, slovakia was quick to collaborate with nazi and communists.
Quora has never, in my memory, provided any value to the internet. The answers it seems to provide to google are seemingly inaccurate and also seem completely unmoderated. Furthermore you seemingly have to pay to even ask answers to get updated.
Kofman among others. He has been saying for a while that "the war is on a negative trajectory for Ukraine", i.e. they are currently losing, no?
Oh give me a break.

There's not going to be a coup against a President who is keeping us OUT of a foreign war.

I was very convinced at that time that 3dfx didn't have a good roadmap and Nvidia would prevail based on their professionalism and superior ability to design silicon.

Do you mean that the Trump administration is not an "industry friendly" government? I don't know if Trump and his agency heads care about industries so much as specific companies.

Also, in regard to broadband, Trump and FCC chair Brendan Carr are quite industry friendly. Carr wrote a Project 2025 chapter in which he favored decreasing the FCC's regulations even further, and prioritizing subsidies toward satellite internet from Starlink and Kuiper [1]. (Let's not forget Ajit Pai, but Pai had a filter compared to Carr. I don't think Pai would've written a Project 2025 chapter.)

@marvin Do you want to leave next to a nuclear power plant when you know that Russian bombs or ISIS or other enemies could blow it? I don't.
Are you under the impression that at some point Russia will simply say “well it was worth a try”, and retreat home?
I wouldn’t put it in as strong a terms but directionally, I think we agree that Brave isn’t the strongest possible alternative to Google Chrome. I don’t think it is invalid to include it in a conversation about alternative browsers to Google Chrome that aren’t Firefox, nor is the use of Chromium sufficient criteria to disqualify alternatives.

That said, I do have a general preference for browsers that aren’t Chromium-based as well.

It's an interesting exercise in basic math and knowing your tax code. My bet is under 5 bucks for the whole last 3 years.
I'm my mind, gene expression is at least as important as the coding genome.

AFAIU, the later mostly encodes the structure of proteins, which naively are the factory machines of or cells (enzymes, that is) and some of its building blocks. The gene expression tells the factory what to produce (a tail or an ear, say), when to produce it, and how much. More relevant to the topic of this article, the gene expression would determine which structures and pathways of the brains (or adrenal glands, or any other organs) to suppress, and which to reinforce and build up in a new generation of humans.

The building blocks are important, but once they are good enough, it matters more what you choose to build with them.
> The risk of China taking Taiwan by force, unprovoked, in the near future is vastly overblown, in my opinion.

I don't share this view. China needs only a couple more (2-3) carriers and to arm enough H-6K's with anti-ship missiles to keep US capital ships at bay and they'll have all the tools they need to blockade and conquer Taiwan, perhaps without firing a shot. All of that will be in place in only a couple years; probably before Trump's term ends.
The news is that skype wasn’t already dead
Countries all over the world should want to help stop an aggressor before it expands and becomes powerful enough to attack them. It's a no brainer, and you have plenty of examples throughout history.

As things stand now, 5 years from now USA could become overrun with russian mobs and oligarch running rampant, and EU faces the real possibility of another continental conflict. I don't think many people around the world are going to enjoy that scenario.
In the Expanse though The Drive is always on, which means the ship is tossing propellant mass (efficiently) out the back of it - which means it can dissipate most of it's heat that way.

It’s not a horrible idea but adding useful preconditions in the face of data races is quite hard in general. This is just one of the ways the tree can break.
This argument doesn’t make sense now that Ukraine lost the war, now it’s empirically proven that Ukrainians don’t in fact get to choose and this line of thinking is what led to the war in the first place.
Provided you even have the weapons and donekys to outfit them in the first place.

Is there a replacement for my use case? Essentially I have two Skype numbers in different countries, and use Skype to receive/forward calls and also to dial out from them to those countries.

It never worked great to be honest, and I don't care about losing the numbers, but I'd like the functionality.
The one in progress from Trump et al.?
Sounds like it was handled better than the authors last article where the Arc browser company initially didn't offer any bounty for a similar RCE, then awarded a paltry $2k after getting roasted, and finally bumped it up to $20k after getting roasted even more.
The moderate left (I.e almost all of the left in positions of power) don’t have answers. But, the rest of the left does. The thing is they’re wildly unpopular.

For example, we all know, left and right, that the healthcare system in the US is broken. End of, no debate. It’s broken. But, even the slightest hint of a reasonable single payer system like the rest of the west is met with immediate and severe backlash.

We’re at a place where we’re not even willing to humor, let alone try, any solutions. The conservative approach is “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of ideas”, but the left is really not far off from that either.
LLMs were never the road to AGI.

Another problem with measuring effectiveness that you are relying on patient (or caregiver) reported outcomes. There are no “objective” measurable criteria for depression, such as a biomarker on some lab test or survival at 5 years. Depression is assessed by asking people questions about how they feel, which is prone to all kinds of noise and bias.

A lot of the problem with studying psychiatric disorders is that you can’t just go around biopsying people’s brains; so we don’t have much of any idea what is going on at a molecular or cellular level. We just kind of know the behavioral tics that doctors can observe and what patients can tell us.
During covid I asked if I could switch my monthly Skype number to annual and they said the only way is to cancel and resubscribe, with a new phone number. It was clear they didn't care even back then.
I am trying to express in good faith, I have found the Left to be generally less effective in dealing with grassroots criticism (it's seen as too populist). Trump will flip on an issue due to pressure from the frog guys. The Left are more dogmatic from top intellectuals, don't really listen to the base. Huge issue in the last elxn. Fixable though imo.

Tesseract is multilingual.

Tesseract extracts all text from doc, without trying to fix reading order.

Tesseract runs in many more places, as it doesn't require a GPU.

Tesseract's pure text output tends to have a lot of extra bits, e.g. bits of text that appear in diagrams. Good as a starting point and fine for most downstream tasks.

It helped that the ww1 western front wasn't inside Germany http://www.greatwar.co.uk/places/ww1-western-front.htm
> As someone who has experience with antidepressants that goes beyond looking at numbers I can assure you that effect has been established very clearly. And it has nothing to do with placebo, only the second medication was the one that worked - it did more in three days than the first one after months on the highest dose.

I think this would still be consistent with it being a placebo. (Not saying it neccesarily is, just saying we would still expect to hear these types ancedotes even if it was a placebo)
I did this with a project that was worked on by a large team (50+ devs, many, many, many kloc) when we first added linting to the project (this was very early 2000s) - we automatically tracked the number of errors and warnings at each build, persisted them, and then failed the build if the numbers went up. So it automatically adjusted the threshold.

It worked really well to incrementally improve things without forcing people to deal with them all the time. People would from time to time make sure they cleaned up a number of issues in the files they happened to be working on, but they didn't have to do them all (which can be a problem with strategies that for example lint only the changed files, but require 0 errors). We threw a small line chart up one one of our dashboards to provide some sense of overall progress. I think we got it down to zero or thereabouts within a year or so.
Bump! AI is important.

Bump! Old enterprise company by the way.
US never wanted to fight Russia directly as it would mean nuclear escalation.

US needs somewhat strong Russia as a scarecrow for Europe and everyone else in the world, so that people would join NATO and pay 4% of GDP to the American military industrial complex: Lockheed Raytheon and friends.

The goal is to scare people and force them to shell out dough for overpriced US weapons.

If Russia becomes too weak, there are two risks:

1. Nuclear/Biowarfare proliferation due to instability inside RU
2. Europe won't spend a dime procuring US weapons because Russia would not be a threat anymore
3. China can increase influence in Russia

so American goal is to keep somewhat stable Russia and force EU to shell dough on US weapons. Thats the racket, everything else is a distraction
> MS has enough of b2c products. Windows is. Office is. Not enough?

You really think Windows (11, since anything older is gone) is a b2c product? It's free. It has advertisements. It has a data mining AI. You are not the customer. Windows is a b2b product.

You really think Office (365, since anything older is gone) is a b2c product? It's "free". It has advertisements. It has data mining AI. You are not the customer. Office is a b2b product.
Ukraine just recently got at parity in artillery with russia, which is why they are pushing this ceasefire and this is why Zelenskyy is walking away from it just like that.

I don't think the US voting public is ready to see geopolitics from the realpolitik lens instead of the lens of idealism that has been instilled on them from elementary school onwards. Every major US geopolitical intervention has been sold to the voters through ideals like spreading democracy. It'll take a complete rethink of civics education before USians are actually ready to decide the government of the hegemon, both to claim what is theirs by might and to ensure that it's distributed fairly amongst them. I'm also not confident that I want the next generation to become realpolitik bastards before they graduate high school.
How do you feed them large code bases usually?
> I am anti-war. I truly want peace.

That's cool. Go convince the aggressor to stand down and never attack anyone again so there can be peace.
There are benchmarks, but they can be gamed.
Slovaks also elected Fico, but they are also protesting like hell.

A democratic leader is a leader to all, not only to his voter base.

Where are your protests?
Once again you're wrong. Only non-citizens had to show proof of vaccination to enter the US.

The OSHA rule never went into effect. The NY Post is not a good representation of "people". OSHA has certain powers to regulate work safety. The Supreme Court said vaccination requirements for workplaces should be handled at the State and Local level. Limiting travel is much more fraught, plus it's limited and intermittent exposure.

You were talking about Biden, not State level decisions about how to weigh risks and handle an unprecedented health emergency.

Look we're all grateful for the Americans that do care about The Alliance but we've seen the political trends in America and it looks bad. You can't elect Trump twice and say it doesn't represent America. Trump's politics isn't going away. The Democrats allowed 'radical' social change to dictate the party platform and didn't implement enough reforms to please the average citizen. Until they do or Trump makes massive blunders we don't have a hope that the old America is coming back.

"If you want to think military, suppose somebody's been shelling my assets, so I return fire and try to knock out their guns. Is that defense or offense"

I get that this is a metaphor, and what I say might be obvious. But there's several actual wars in which Russia is actively involved in right now. It is both tactless and confusing to talk about weapons as a metaphor for cybersecurity.

I know that we software devs like to think of cyber as a battlefield, we are attacked all the time, and yes there are real consequences.

But cyber attacks are not powder attacks. And there is no necessity that whatever happens in the cyber field occurs in the same directions and magnitudes as it does on the actual battlefields.

Would you be concerned if the state of russia considers mcdonalds not to be a threat to russia? Would you be concerned if they decided it was? Or would petty quarrels in the business domain have no bearing on the war domain?

Nvidia did have a very ambitious abstraction which encompassed audio as well. As a low level rendering engineer at the time, I found their documentation to be quite challenging as I didn't jibe with their mindset and nomenclature.
>Russia defeated both Napoleon and Hitler.

In Russia. In fact it was Russia's winter the one who did most of the work. The Russian army was always very bad.

Now Putin is Napoleon or Hitler invading other countries.
> different principles

Yes, risk aversion.

Of course there are highly innovative and successful companies in Europe, but they are usually highly specialized or an exception to the rule.

It wasn’t always the case of course, but the last ~15 years or so have been a disaster.

> verifiable made up claims

Well yes, it’s rather easily verifiable. The biggest “tech” company in the EU is SAP after all.

It’s a but confusing is your comment supposed to be sarcasm? Otherwise how exactly are my claims “made up”?

> would go to EU, which is not true, it went to Nokia owners who aren't in any meaning 'EU

It’s very obvious that they didn’t mean that especially if you read what they said next. Not sure how one can misinterpret it.
Agreed. These are potentially historic moments worthy of discussion amongst rational and educated folks.

Hopefully, however, these are not historic moments...
Thanks for that, you made my day.
Can we really put Orban in the category of "European leaders"?

Seems more like "Putin followers"
I really don't understand this take, any other European country could fund the Ukraine war to continue.

The US no longer wanting to fund someone else's war is about as far from 'forcing' as you can get. Plus it doesn't even sound like we're withdrawing all funding, instead we're attaching a few conditions in hopes to end the killing.
Nearly every decision made since the late seventies has been with the intention of making the most money in the shortest amount of time. Not just in government. In everyday people’s lives, in companies.

And it always fails long term. We lose so, so much and then we just ignore it and do it again. We’re getting to a point where we don’t even remember where we started.

This has been a long time coming, IMO. You can only be selfish for so long before you implode. If everyone is selfish, you’re living on borrowed time.
async/await, for example.
Fully agree. Ukraine should be given the means to defend itself on equal footing. No nation, regardless of size or power, should operate under the assumption that it can violate another country's sovereignty without consequences.
I think a way that you can think about it is from a risk perspective. One rule passed down among traders is to not risk more than 2% you account size in any single trade. For a $50k account that would be $1k. Now let’s say that your system gives you 2 times your risk (2R) with a 60% win rate, and let’s say that in average you make 10 trades a month… you can run those numbers and see if they make sense for you.

There’s usually an inverse correlation between win-rate and accuracy. If you increase your risk you can be right more often but your rewards are smaller. Alternatively you can be more “selective” with tighter stops and thus lower risk and is likely that you’ll be wrong more often but that the winner will be bigger…

I believe that you can have the skills to build a system that can detect patterns from historical data, but notice how, for example, from the previous calculations the problem of trading is less of a “technical” problem and more of a market, risk management, money management, statistical kind of problem.

Then there’s the emotional part of, you still have the power to stop your system… if it has had 4 or 6 losses in a row… are you still keeping it up? Loosing is inevitable in trading, but how much loosing can you handle? Have the market conditions changed? How do you measure that?

Good luck!
It's as a prop to make him look hard af. Is he IN combat regularly? No.
It appears Zelenskyy left without doing any deal and skipping the usual press conference, so I think the prediction has already been falsified.
My point is that the Russian people have a capacity for self-sacrifice that shouldn't be underestimated, especially when their (perceived) sovereignty is threatened.

During WW2, for example, the Soviets lost a total of 20-27 million dead. Only China, a country almost three times as populous, came close at 15-20 million.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_casualties#Total_...

The British Empire lost less than 500,000.
Zelenskyy: A lot of questions. Let's start from the beginning. First of all, during the war, everybody has problems, even you, but you have a nice ocean and but don't feel now, but you will feel it in the future.

Trump: You don't know that.

Zelenskyy: God bless, you will not have a war...

So, it is what it is, and you need to be careful of what you say when dealing with people like Trump, especially in front of the cameras.
He was obviously not going to do anything about inflation despite what he said during his rallies. Actions speak more than words, especially when those words are inconsistent ramblings. We all saw what he did in his first term, and not a single policy decision was made out of concern for ordinary people. It's always about going after people or enriching the super-rich even further.
Traditionally the US turned from ally to bully in a predictable manner though. Ally with the Soviet Union, expect hostility, even if your previous right-leaning government had been their best buddies. Invade another country the US also regarded as a regional ally and oil supplier and you might not last long.

The switch to verbally attacking Ukraine and the rest of Europe whilst fellating Putin is an altogether different one, and one much more damaging to US soft power than its past belligerence.
Careful. The way things are evolving, this could soon be seen as financing of a "terrorist state".

Make sure you cover your traces.
True! I've been following STM and HTM research work for a while, and it all seems quite niche unless all side effects are captured (which is something purely functional languages can do). There isn't a real path to scalability I think, which there was with affine types.

Optimistic concurrency in general is a useful design pattern in many cases, though.
We have powerful weapons now. Manpower is not the (most) limiting factor. If the Ukraine had 10 times its current long range drone production, the Russians would start whining about peace deals.
Wow. The Mathpix mobile app has support for reading two column PDFs as a single column.

"There isn't some absolute line between defense and offense."

Not an expert on this, but I'm pretty sure there is and there's geneva conventions and stuff, not comfortable at all with the implication, borders on incitation to violence.
> the US shouldn't be spending so much money helping Ukraine in the war

Russia has been a principal threat for the past 75 years.

Donating equipment is a cheap way to wear them down. Dirty cheap.

It's absolutely in US interest, as it would allow US to focus on other players.
