I forget what it was called and I’m too lazy to look it up, but there was a non Adobe IDE for writing and compiling flash apps using AS3 - it was fine, and it was free, I remember using it for a couple projects, though ultimately I preferred how comprehensive adobe’s software was for publishing .swf

There is excess supply of housing which is intentionally kept empty, hence this is not applicable.

I think it's a matter of perception. There's regurgitation. There's recombination. There's advanced recombination through layers of prestidigitation. And then there's actual human creativity, which you might deny is special, leaving us at an impasse because we can't provide you with a tool to measure it with. It just comes down to a philosophical face off, high noon with hand-waving instead of six-guns.

But anyway the point is that LLMs produce a lot of novel stuff that we feel already tired of because it seems like we've seen it before.
yes yes yes!
I'm sorry, I still don't follow. Both of those just sound incorrect on their face.

> if you don’t react definitely, that means that you may have the weapons but not the discipline to use it, so no credibility

You can react "definitely" with conventional weapons. I don't get it. If for some reason you really think they won't get the message that your threat is credible, you could even run a nuclear test somewhere. I see no reason why you have to perform a nuclear attack here.

> conventional destruction is not a deterrent in this case

Sure it is. Destroying/disabling your enemy's nuclear facilities would jeopardize their security, no matter how it's done -- which is absolutely a deterrent. If anything, doing so with conventional weapons should make your enemy worry more, not less.

> and you will only refrain from using your nukes if your are confident that the response will be more nukes towards you - in which case, your initial military objective is void, because the consequence of your action is that you don’t exist anymore

I don't understand this logic at all.
Sure they were. But this is much more overt; if you can be open about it then you can do so much more.
Doesn't mean you go back all the way up. And I don't know if the resistance wears off if you stop taking it. What I am hoping is to end up in an end state where I can keep the weight within a 5-7kg range and go on the drug for 2-3 months once a year to go back to the bottom of the range.

I think the craving is primarily a function of how much your stomach expects food, ie the more food the more craving, but also you can get it used to a lower regime. And to external factors like stress, tiredness, cold, etc.

You asked 'Where were the complaints about previous governments not growing them fast enough?'

I answered with an example of a previous complaint.

I take it then you did not read the report? It goes into details of why they were understaffed compared to what they were in 2012:

> Beginning in 2013, a series of events led to a hiring backlog at NWS.
Specifically, in response to the 2013 federal budget sequestration, NOAA
implemented an agency-wide hiring freeze.26 Because WFMO generally
could not hire or replace departing employees during the freeze, the
number of vacancies at NWS increased. According to WFMO officials,
when the hiring freeze was lifted in 2014, demand for hiring across NOAA
was high. Simultaneously, WFMO had experienced a high level of attrition
during the freeze—in fiscal years 2013 and 2014, approximately 50
percent of WFMO staff handling hiring left the agency, according to a
WFMO official—and therefore, WFMO could not keep pace with the hiring
demand when the freeze was lifted.27 In fiscal year 2016, attrition at NWS
outpaced WFMO’s hiring abilities. Over the course of the fiscal year, 191
staff left NWS, and WFMO hired 157 external candidates, according to
WFMO data. Therefore, NWS’s hiring backlog increased. ...

> According to NOAA budget officials, an
administrative spending cap has limited WFMO’s ability to increase its
hiring activities to address the hiring demand ...

It also mentions some of the problems which have nothing to do with long-term research:

> However, taking these steps, according to managers and staff, at times
led to their inability to complete other key tasks, such as providing severe
weather information support to state and local emergency managers. ... managers in five operational units said that managers and
staff worked overtime to cover forecasting shifts and ensure forecasts and warnings were issued.
> To me, the main reason is different: You won’t be a master at frontend development if you don’t understand underlying mechanisms of a language.

True for any paradigm, not just frontend.

Coinciding with techie social media outrage over the TOU fiasco, and repeatedly mishandled by corporate, so now the read-only mode means the outrage can't spread to Mozilla forums, where it might reach a wider audience?
As synonym for the smell of cologne, I think.
I agree in my view the modern language models already processes general intelligence: they are better at some tasks and worse than others compared to human, but in principle they can tackle any problem (if given agency like tool access)

this is probably a religious question so people will not be convinced of intelligent machines even if they have an EQ and IQ of 200 because they don't work the same way human cells do I suppose.
> W̶h̶i̶t̶e̶ m̶e̶n̶ DOGE can't be ideologically diverse?

In theory DOGE could be diverse. In practice, at this specific time there's no real indication they're age diverse, gender diverse, or even messiah diverse.

And if you tried any sites that used flash on an Android (early days when you could for a while) you'd understand why.

No keyboard: which broke most games.

No mouse: touch is not the same and hard to fake mouse controls with touch while supporting pan or zoom.

Small screen: flash was designed for bigger screens and everything was too small or needed zoom.

Flash wanted to control its event/animation loop: battery life was drained quickly even for basic content.

Mobile didn't kill Flash.

You see the same UI issues when controlling a Remote Desktop from a phone screen. Just difficult.
That version of SignalR you are referring to is from .NET framework and really bolted on. That version of the framework had async/await in ASP.NET also bolted on, and the threads itself use a synchronisation context and locks.

This is mostly no longer the case in modern .NET. SignalR is a core part of the framework and completely rewritten.

In our case, Blazor Server has been very stable for us, also for multiple users.

The solutions are simple, but the execution requires a radical change in the way we all see each other.

You don't cut off your finger when you get a splinter, or tell your earlobe it needs to fend for itself because it just hangs there and does nothing most of the time.

Pain in our bodies can make us shift our whole being to ease pressure on a stiff muscle or avoid a small burn.

Pain in our society falls on deaf ears and drives us to fight over scraps when there is abundance everywhere.

The solutions are simple. We all need our basic needs met, we should strive to end the suffering of others, and to help each other reach our true potential from where we are right now.
The CMB is uniform, so if you go back far enough that is true (and apply a blueshift). Amospheric disturbances would smear out a lot of it though, so no points like in analogue thermal noise.
My sentiments exactly. The level of despair I’m feeling is palpable. Especially when I think that to counter Trump it will take a unified Democratic Party with consistent messaging … (unlikely)
My favorite is when it hallucinates a library that does exist and ostensibly has a relevant title and methods but upon investigation proves to be for a purpose wholly unrelated to the current task. To make matters worse, this discovery will be greeted, every time, by "Ah, you're right!"
Now here's a little thought experiment. What does the world look like in 5 years when everyone is talking to these things that are indistinguishable from a real person? They will be funnier, more compassionate, less judgemental, smarter, and superficially "better" in every respect.
This might be a game changer for learning English.

I'm from a developing country and it's sad that most English teachers on public schools here can't speak English well. There are good English teachers, but they are expensive and they are not affordable for the average people.

OpenAI realtime models are good, but we can't deploy it to masses since it's very expensive.

This model might be able to solve the issue since it's better or on par with the OpenAI model, yet it's significantly cheaper since it's a fairly small model.

Was used to using pdp11/vax based systems moving to Suns and other workstations, and for a number of reasons the initial launch floppies of linux felt "under cooked" compared to the BSD systems also being released for larger Intel chips with MMU. But, the killer side of this was the linux code ran on smaller Intel boxes, probably a little better than Minix did.

when 386BSD got it's act together, it became less apparent but very quickly impetus got behind the distro "scene" and Linux took off like a rocket.

Those first early days, no real network stack, minimal desktop support, it was line-and-ball. Mainly, I think the BSD lawsuit/licence issues was the negative energy source in BSD occupying the ground.

I had an IBM PC/RT at the time running the 4.3bsd port which was just lovely. But such clunky hardware. PCs were coming into their own and IBM didn't want to keep playing in multiple OS and had AIX coming through and the ROMP chip was getting old. Once graphics display cards on PCI emerged along with decent cheap ethernet cards, and then ethernet on the motherboard I think it was game over. (although for obvious reasons most people's experience of network was modem on serial)
I’m forking Shopify’s polaris-react library for my personal use and some of the components are clearly made to people who don’t know how to use CSS.

Whether it's a franchise or not isn't really the issue.

It's that something like a coffee shop can do a ton of business in a high traffic area, and so can pay a higher rent than a local bookstore. So if you only have enough rental units for one of them, the coffee shop is going to bid higher. Which means if you want to have both, you need enough units to exist for both.

Also, you're not actually trying to lose the coffee shop. You want to have both.
Yeah, those are pretty frustrating. I've learned not to ask the question "Does library X have feature Y?" because if that feature sounds like a good idea it'll often confidently tell me that it exists when it doesn't.

I would bet at least 95% or more, personally. I'd survive okay here (until I got sick or injured) because my local environment is pretty easy to survive in, but I would die quick in a harsher wilderness, I am sure, and I am fine with admitting that!

There's a happy medium between what we have today (rampant consumerism and waste) and what we had a thousand years ago (every tribe for themselves). Perhaps you and I can agree that a lot of what humans do is useful transformations of resources into things that help us (housing, food, much of our tech and manufacturing), and then there is a lot of what we do that is completely wasteful that we could be doing less of (plastic crap, driving to offices to meet on Zoom, perhaps we build houses too large, we build in bad places for humans to survive, etc.).

My previous comment was a bit snarky, but my point via that comment is that not everything we do to transform resources into stuff increases the value of the world, perhaps some wasteful things even harm our world and decrease it's value in the future. You're a smart guy, you understand nuance and that wasting our natural resources, especially the non-renewable ones like oil, in a mostly closed ecosystem is a bad idea.

If even a tiny appreciable amount of user move to librewolf, Mozilla will fix their business model.

They were doing fine as a business under Eich, whatever you think of him. They make over $500M just from their search box - and frankly, that is way more than you need to make a fantastic browser. And Thunderbird.

Baker took home over $7M a year for the past six years, and though she stepped down as CEO, we don't know if they even cut her pay, or what the other top tier salaries are [1]. Mozilla is a "open" company, but they announced that they will "not be disclosing salaries" after Baker stepped down.

Kagi makes a browser with 35 employees and ~200K inn sales. And I know, they are not building from scratch - but neither is FF at this point. It is ridiculous to suggest that Mozilla will go under if they don't become spyware.

That ideology is being masqueraded science. That these individuals are abusing their scientific authority in such a flagrant way. Eliminating taxpayer-funded DEI programs is not "white supremacist ideology".

And even if you believe it is, and that the SCOTUS — which ruled that DEI admission requirements at Ivy League universities discriminated against Asian applicants — is part of this white supremacist conspiracy, you should not be making that case in a scientific journal as if your scientific expertise has anything to do with that opinion.

It reminds me of when 1,000 "medical professionals" wrote an open letter saying that protests against lockdowns were a public health threat, but that protests promoting the BLM narrative were not:

https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/05/health/health-care-open-lette...

“However, as public health advocates, we do not condemn these gatherings as risky for COVID-19 transmission. We support them as vital to the national public health and to the threatened health specifically of Black people in the United States. We can show that support by facilitating safest protesting practices without detracting from demonstrators’ ability to gather and demand change. This should not be confused with a permissive stance on all gatherings, particularly protests against stay-home orders.”

It sounds like right-wing hyperbole until you actually read their own words.

Ya, this is the core of the disagreement that I would run into with the old school lispers.

I see it, I do, my third eye is open. I get the entire flow that the interactive development environment brings to the table and how it is infinitely superior than what existed in every other language for decades.

But I don't like it more than the modern tooling. That's pure personal preference. I don't like this weird stateful thing hanging out in the background of my dev environment. I don't find value in sending random expressions into the weird stateful blob. If I wanted to drop into a debugger, I'll ask, don't hijack my stacktraces.

I write tight test loops, modify my code, run the tests from scratch in the same one-key press the lispers use to evaluate their s-expressions. I don't need to go back and verify my build or application works from scratch, it never breaks, I'm constantly rebuilding.

I would run into situations not infrequently where some post-doc wasn't quite sure how they achieved the state they did in the image, had a bug, but no tests to reproduce the bug or anything else. Maddening. An anti-pattern I never saw accomplished to the same degree with the Python boys (not to say Jupyter Notebooks aren't their own stateful fucking mad house of bad software engineering).

Of course but that’s a too general statement. What developers IMO fail to get is that CSS is so different because it’s a language to express design and they don’t understand the basics of design. Almost all programming languages are about logic and taught at all CS / programming schools. But design mostly isn’t and is much more complex than people think first (check for example grid theory).

There's a pretty easy trick to nested comprehensions.

Just write the loop as normal:

for name, values in map_of_values.items():
for value in values:
yield name, value

Then concatenate everything on one line:

[for name, values in map_of_values.items(): for value in values: yield name, value]

Then move the yield to the very start, wrap it in parentheses (if necessary), and remove colons:

[(name, value) for name, values in map_of_values.items() for value in values]

And that's your comprehension.

Maybe this makes more sense if you're reading it on a wide screen:

[ for name, values in map_of_values.items(): for value in values: yield name, value]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
/------------------------------------------------------------------------------/
vvvvvvvvvvvvv
