For non-US people, Whatsapp became the default for people to talk with friends and family. Slowly, Whatsapp started becoming the way to talk to businesses such as ordering something or support. Then businesses started talking to each other on Whatsapp.

Whatsapp cornered the talk outside of your company market. You have all your contacts on Whatsapp.

Geo-niche chat apps such as iMessage in US, Line in Japan, Viber in certain eastern european countries fill the rest of the market.

Next, Teams and Slack integrated calls and video chat directly and cornered the talk inside your company market.
Tom, co-founder of Moropo here, thanks for the mention :-)
It makes sense to correct the title. Currently it says „Mozilla site down…“ but it is not the front page and not „down“, so most people using Mozilla products are not affected.

Better version would be „One of Mozilla sites is in read-only mode…“
Interesting. Thanks for the correction. Maybe I just dropped it then and never picked it back up. I remember the experience worsening and it was probably the time when other alternatives were propping up so I never went back to it.
Of course, my web server supports automatic TLS (through TLS-ALPN-01 challenge), just like Caddy.
> The goggles, imported into Russia as donated humanitarian aid

From what I can tell, that was the description given by the anonymous saboteur-donator.

Is it common for military equipment used by Russia to arrive miscategorized that way, such as to avoid sanctions?
Abstractions are like mutations - most of them kill the host =P
It's not even necessary for iDevices. I have successfully built, signed, and deployed simple apps without Xcode at all, using Bazel. I think CMake has support as well.
You do not need how compiler handles UB parts of the standard; in fact you should NEVER rely on it, as it can change without warning. That's effectively "incorrect code", by definition.
Very sad to see Efabless go. They really did offer something unique with their chipIgnite programme. It provided a simple way to get a chip made at very low cost ($10k) with no barriers. Thanks to the open source toolchain and PDK you just needed your verilog and a credit card and you were good to go. Sure it had a bunch of limitations but it was still a very encouraging development in making chip design more accessible.

Other low-cost (at least low relative to the huge costs of silicon fabrication) services exist but typically they have little public information and will certainly require proprietary tools and PDKs (which are not cheap and require you to persuade the sales people to talk to you to even find out what these costs are).
Maybe the ability to personalize the voice so it is more... robotic or based on a fictional thing like Knight Rider would help to change the attachment to something more... healthy?
The trick to coding with LLMs is not caring if the code is correct.
I think for this web server to compete with caddy/nginx (if the goal is getting other people to use it, if built for fun, please ignore) this needs a good reason to exist.

Memory-safe is nice compared to Nginx, but pretty moot when comparing to Caddy. OTOH, perhaps this could aim for better/comparable performance to Nginx (and better than Caddy) whilst being memory safe? It’s still quite a niche use case though.
I wouldn't. Blazing fast, fearless concurrency, etc. are all super cringe at this point. Just say it's fast, secure and reliable or something like that.
I would be in the metric as well, while detesting the service. However, I'm not the only person in my home and it's not always easy to transition the family onto my local solutions. It's why I have YouTube premium as well, while letting the family know it's easy to grab all of that content and self host. It's like the chance of seeing something to watch you didn't already know about outweighs the cost and quality of service.
All the HPC I've used in the past was always RHEL... I wouldn't have imagined it was a tough sales area for RedHat, at least in the past.
I'm just suggesting that the observed prioritization of DEI objectives at the expense of the admission process not being completely merit-based likely results in some additional deaths. I agree that there are multiple factors involved that will predict physical competency, not just those that the DEI policies adversely affect.
>Humans are extremely well tuned to detect authenticity in communication.

I think the long-standing success of advertising and propaganda suggests that people really aren't all that good at that.
This was my question too so I think it's worth clarifying that on the home page.
It is completely unclear what you think the difference in capability between humans and computers is.

I've tried to follow your reasoning, which AFAICT comes down to a claim that humans possess something connected to incomputability, and computers do not. But now it seems you hold this difference to be irrelevant.

So again: What do you think the difference in capability between humans and computers is?
Thank you! Many other web server written in Rust are memory-safe as well, because of Rust's borrow checker.
I designed Ferron to be a general-purpose, standalone web server, just like NGINX or Caddy. It can even run PHP web applications (through FastCGI).
I am pretty sure

Ok but I'm not asking about "the vast majority of writing" because that's not very meaningful - we do a lot of rote, predictable, functional writing. What's the evidence for the kind of writing I asked about? Why can't I ask ChatGPT to write me an award-winning novel? Or a middling, publishable novel.
Well you don't know how long it has been unpaid for and I think it's good that it's transparent so that at least there is no confusion about why it's in read-only mode
I write Python every day and I would have just write the "normal" loop which is the only one that is really readable in your examples, at least to me.
Looks like we took similar approaches!

Congratulations, you too unlocked the "None of the hundreds that are out there work exactly like I want, so I'll write my own" badge.
Yeah this is straight up creepy, and I also can't stand chatgpt saying "Lmao" and "Yeah". Keep it formal & robotic.
No, they won't. I'm talking about the users of HPC centers, not the maintainers. The supercomputer cluster is at NASA or DoE and running RHEL, but the user is some grad student in Caltech or whatever. The grad student needs the analog environment to run their code before their scheduled time on the big iron.
>So now trying to avoid offensive language

Building a bot to harangue people about pronoun usage seems like a giant waste of time and resources to me. Those sorts of cultural preferences are a feature of only a very very small portion of the US political culture. Maybe nuking the whole department was a bit strong, I don't know, but if I worked at a place that had tools like that I'd quit, and I think a lot of other people would too. Which suggests that the overall culture of 18F was far from the mainstream of America. It should reflect the middle, no?
I totally get the concern—accidentally using the wrong identity in a repo is a nightmare. That’s exactly why I built gguser to be explicit, flexible, and easy to use, without relying on a strict directory structure.

For me, my repos aren’t always neatly grouped by context. I might clone a work repo temporarily somewhere else or have open-source contributions scattered around. Rather than relying on predefined paths, I prefer explicitly linking profiles or switching manually when needed.

That said, if the .gitconfig + core.sshCommand method works perfectly for you, that’s awesome! But I’d still love for you to give gguser a try—it’s super lightweight, doesn’t modify your .gitconfig, and could be a handy tool for times when you need a quick profile switch or override without tweaking configs manually.

Would be curious to hear your thoughts if you try it out!:)
GLP-1s have high quality double blinded placebo controlled RCTs proving them.

> On a more philosophical basis, should performance-enhancing drugs be available more widely anyway, with appropriate safeguards against abuse?

I recently came across this article discussing a study which found that stimulants lower productivity in people without ADHD.

> “Our results suggest that these drugs don’t actually make you ‘smarter’,” said Bossaerts. “Because of the dopamine the drugs induce, we expected to see increased motivation, and they do motivate one to try harder. However, we discovered that this exertion caused more erratic thinking — in ways that we could make precise because the knapsack task had been widely studied in computer science.

> “Our research shows drugs that are expected to improve cognitive performance in patients may actually be leading to healthy users working harder while producing a lower quality of work in a longer amount of time,” said Bowman.

For me TailwindCSS actually was helpful in learning CSS. You still apply the same core CSS fundamentals. If you created a complex layout in Tailwind, you can also do it in normal CSS. I look up the exact rules behind their classes frequently in their docs.

If you just copy classes and don't care to understand them, it's a different story of course.

A few times the CEO of my company randomly joined me for lunch, but each time he forgot to leave behind his persona of "I'm a public speaker right now", making the whole situation feel extremely awkward. This AI gives me exactly the same vibes.
Either you adapt, or you don't. But this is what's coming for all software/web & IT jobs. I am not making up the rules of the game; neither am I sitting here and be bitter about it.
Thanks for pointing that out! That was a major complaint on the first one. Was this paragraph also included in the first email?
Do you live in reality? Because that clearly isn’t happening.
I went through this 2016-2020. This time I'm all in on the "leopards ate my face" stance. Instead of feeling bad, I now laugh at people who voted for this and are getting hurt.

I can't help that people are this stupid. And if they hurt themselves in the process, good. It'll be a cleansing.
I think a few comparable development tools have sprung up, including ours, Construct [1], which is very much web-first.

I think the reason people say nothing replaced Flash is because now there are lots of tools instead of just one, as anyone can target HTML5, so the market has fragmented; and the market has changed, as people develop for app stores and platforms like Steam, so the web isn't as big a focus as it used to be (although it's still important).

A really sad tale, but amazingly depressing that you can work as an ATC for arguably the most difficult forms of civil aviation, with no planning, aids, or procedures -- all without qualifications.
I believe in coincidences. Coincidences happen every day. In a world that operates largely at random, coincidences are to be expected. But I do not trust coincidences.
I went through two Motorola phones in a row before my current phone and they were both good for the money. I just hated how quickly they stopped getting security updates. Have some 1+ model now and it's probably also going to stop getting security updates before I have a problem with the hardware. I do miss the movement sensor way of opening the camera and turning on the flashlight from Motorola models.
Unwanted, very loud verbal attention between strangers (usually men delivered to women), in public. E.g. whistling, shouting something suggestive, etc.

We've been overdue on something like this, but a public notice would have left us moving to a competitor.

It's easy for it to happen if a colleague is away for a month, or has left, and the bill isn't being seen by anyone. Do you read (do you even receive?) out-of-office replies to your invoices?

Of course it shouldn't be on an individual's email, but with annual billing it's easy to overlook.
Russia has broken every ceasefire/treaty so far. Lets assume Ukraine is fine conceding everything they have lost to date, who will then enforce the next treaty? Ukraine, I think correctly, knows any treaty without strong enforcement provisions is simply giving Russia time to rearm.

Finally, if making the war stop is a top priority, who is putting the pressure on Russia? Russia can pack up and go home at literally any time and stop the war. Putting the entirety of this situation from starting the war to blocking peace on Zelensky/Ukraine might as well be direct talkings points from Putin himself.
This is basically the first thing asked by the layman when these types of observations emerge.

The replies will almost certainly be regurgitated into a misleading article, which in turn will kick off a damaging trend.
"Gain-of-function" doesn't refer to adding literally any function to a virus, it refers to making it more virulent or transmissible -- that's why lots of people are so against it, because the cost-benefit ratio seems so obviously lopsided. Adding unrelated functions to viruses and using them as vectors isn't included in that, both in that it has lots more uses (some vaccines are made this way, for instance) and much lower downside risk (viruses used as vectors are often rendered unable to replicate, so the risk of them spreading at all is small).

> Wouldn't that qualify as GoF research? And if so, after millions dead and trillions lost, how prudent is it to conduct this kind of research?

While this isn't the main point, I feel like I should point out that (if I'm understanding you correctly) there seems to be something fundamentally wrong with your reasoning here. Whether or not it's a good idea to conduct this particular research is a matter of the facts of this particular case. How you categorize it doesn't change that. Learning what is or is not considered "gain of function" should have zero effect on your opinion here! Here's a good essay on this topic: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/TyQSMmoJpRG3HBv5S/cleaning-u...
I know someone who had to have her antibodies tested (before working in a lab), and realized vaccines were less effective for her (she had half to a quarter of necessary antibodies) and had to retake a lot of boosters, including 'mmr' (it has another name here) and hepatitis.
I can't see how one can come to such conclusion. We know that there are trillions of stars, and an even greater number of planets, in the universe. We know that life can start relatively easily on some planets, as we know it happened at least once. Out of trillions, there must be at least millions of planets that "look like" ours out there. How can one conclude "we are very very special" given that information? It's illogical to me.
I suspect that people don't like changing web servers, and perhaps that's why it took the industry so long to move away from Apache. Ferron actually looks great — great performance, automatic TLS, easy reverse proxy configuration and more. Congrats on shipping this!
That is true. But why would you replace a simple known to be working filter with this thing that yields worse performance? There are no upsides to this, and that is why the domain expert is baffled. We have been making filters like this for a long time, it is known how they should be evaluated and yet this thing is still touted as state of the art but its creators. If the image quality is lower with this filter and you say that is does not matter then the quality of the stream is to high. This filter is not going to solve that.
The male's Australian accent consisted of throwing a 'fair dinkum' in while keeping it's vague New York accent.

I feel similar for Computer Science as a whole field. It's weird to think that many of its founding fathers were still during a significant portion of my life.

Claude Shannon 2001

Edsger Dijkstra 2012

Even Alan Turing could still have been alive during my lifetime hadn't he been murdered.

Friedrich L. Baur, who died in 2015, still had an office at my university when I studied there and I often passed by, saw his name plate, and wondered if this was all real.

Luckily Donald Knuth is still around.
I'm working on a C++ library at work that lets you define a data model (a tree of objects, arrays and values) and run visitors through it. The data model is both effectively a JSON schema in source code form and a binding to the underlying data/application through callbacks and whatnots.

I can make it ingest or emit whatever data format I want by writing a deserializer or serializer visitor for it (either directly or through a library), I can perform various pipeline-like transformations by chaining visitors together. The core is header-only, templated, constexpr and suitable for usage on resource-constrained systems.

I know that there are equivalents in managed or interpreted languages (like Java's Jackson library), but I haven't managed to find anything quite like it elsewhere on the Internet for compiled, unmanaged languages. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough or I just don't know what to search for, which is too bad because it handily beats writing serialization/deserlialization code by hand.
I've been using Nokia phones for the last 5 years. They're cheap, and come with no bloat. Used to do Motorola though.
I will later update the performance benchmark chart, since the current one features an earlier alpha version of my web server (Project Karpacz 0.3.0).

I wanted to mention it as well but was not 100% sure since I have not used it.
Nope! Slipped me by and I'm a language nerd who literally worked for Nokia (only one trip to the mothership though) and spent my teens deep in the Finnish demoscene and the rest of the 90s knee-deep in Linux.
I figured it was obvious that creating something meant creating something of value.

If someone else is willing to trade for it, then something of value has been created.

P.S. Most people don't know how to make a fire from scratch, and will die of hypothermia in even modest environments. I know how to do it, but have never actually tried it. Doing it without even a knife will be really hard. The TV series "Alone" is instructive about how hard it is to survive, even if you're well-equipped with modern gear.
Many Fins can speak Swedish. Around 10pc? It is an official language.

Individuals should exercise extreme caution in the investment landscape, as numerous fraudulent investment companies and deceptive recovery firms operate globally. The difficulty in withdrawing funds from trading accounts, or the experience of complete financial loss, is unfortunately a common occurrence. These situations often involve sophisticated schemes designed to exploit unsuspecting investors. For example, Ponzi schemes promise exceptionally high returns with minimal risk, attracting investors who subsequently lose their principal investments when the scheme collapses. Another common tactic involves fraudulent brokers who manipulate trading platforms or provide false information to induce losses. Furthermore, many victims fall prey to scam recovery firms that promise to retrieve stolen funds but instead demand upfront fees without delivering on their promises. These firms often operate anonymously and lack any legitimate regulatory oversight. MARS TECH RECOVERY GURUs offers guidance and assistance to individuals who have experienced such financial losses. Our services encompass a comprehensive assessment of the situation, identification of the perpetrators, and the pursuit of legal avenues for fund recovery. This process may involve collaborating with law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, and legal professionals to build a robust case for restitution. It is crucial to remember that recovering stolen funds requires patience, diligence, and a thorough understanding of the legal processes involved. While MARS TECH RECOVERY GURUs strives to provide effective solutions, the success of any recovery effort is dependent on various factors, including the nature of the fraud, the availability of evidence, and the cooperation of relevant authorities. Therefore, prospective clients should approach the process with realistic expectations and a commitment to full transparency and cooperation.

From the main landing page. Possibly the benchmarks are slightly better, but until Nginx is added it’s hard to say how significant that bump is.
