And maybe it will work. Thanks! But maybe, you know, sometimes I just want to knock it off a notch while driving. I must be so complicated… why would I want to regulate temperature manually. Or change some other obscure setting a genius from California never considered to be useful because “it works in my climate”.

By the way… there’s nothing preventing auto aircon and having a manual dial to change the setting rather than through a touchscreen. It safer. You know, in case if you have to. Which you don’t have to, apparently. That’s cool.

Thanks. I kind of get it. It reads like post-hoc reasoning (by them I hasten to add) but it's a good outcome if you aren't a pacifist. If you are a pacifist, rearmament at scale across Europe is frightening.

I'm not a pacifist. My parents were in the blitz. I'm pretty sure this won't end well for Europe if they stand down. I also appreciate I am very old, and a long way away from the trouble spots so I have left behind immediate consequences of other people incurring risk burdens. But still: Europe needs to rearm, and cannot depend on US strategic inputs for the next 4 years and probably more.

I am unsure repudiating information sharing or NATO is a good idea but I could understand European and British and Canadian and ANZAC and ASEAN partners reassessing information sharing right now.

US complaints about lack of commitment to funding NATO go back decades. It's not a solely Trumpist position.

Those 15% is actually if they know someone who has committed academic misconduct not fraud (although there is an overlap it's not the same), and it is across all levels (I.e. from PI to PhD student). So this will very likely overestimate fraud, as we would be double counting (I.e. Multiple reporters will know the same person). Imporantly the paper also says if people reported the misconduct it had consequences in the majority of cases.

And just again for comparison >30% of elite athlete say that they know someone who doped.

Amazing, this is exactly the kind of thing I happened to be looking around for this week. I'm sure I can reason it out but would you mind adding macOS steps to the readme? I notice you marked an issue about macOS compilation as completed so I assume it works?

Do you think Google is going to let you get away with this? pahahaha. Nope.

The next thing they'll do is to claim that DNS over TLS (probably port 443 mind you) is mandatory.

On a side note, Safari's latest version seems to do this, and there's no way I can figure out how to disable the behavior.

Per usual, they'll claim is "for safety", but the real motive is to kneecap extremely useful tools like PiHole.

Slavery was “abolished” in the UK while that same nation continued to traffic and profit from enslavement for quite a long time it’s “abolition”. Is your point that monarchy is good, or that slavery is associated with all forms of government?
we'll probably see proxies everywhere. What we'd do then for ad-block is beyond me.

Filtering proxies on the other end. A lot of corporate networks already MITM all traffic so they can block, monitor, and rewrite; and ironically that has been much-maligned by those working for Big Browser, ostensibly for "security" reasons. Ditto for the DoH advocates.

I've been running a filtering proxy on my network since the turn of the century. This was somewhat common in the past, then waned as browsers started growing extension functionality (one wonders if growing, and then now heavily restricting, extensions was a way to discourage proxying) but I suspect it'll become more popular in the future too.

The deal with Amazon is you pay a fixed monthly subscription fee to read an umlimited amount of crap on your Kindle (RMS calls that device a Swindle). So if you have some favorite authors or get recommendations from a subreddit or something, you can keep your reading appetite satiated without buying individual titles. Particularly, that lets you DNF (do not finish) a work without incurring expense, if you read a few pages and decide not to continue.

The plan involved is called Kindle Unlimited and its terms for authors are quite onerous imho, but monopolies etc.
To me H3 looked over-engineered and unnecessarily complex. Hexagons don't tile nicely at multiple resolutions, for one! Just overcoming that is decidedly non-trivial.

Implementing Google's S2 is simpler, but it has the same overall benefits as H3 such as a hierarchical data structure.
I know ansible is not sexy or resource efficient, but it would be a handful of lines in a single task.yml and it would work reliably out of the box. Previously the part that was too much effort for me to be reliable was often bootstrapping the python environment on the host, but uv has been a game changer (at least it has been from my team) in terms of being able to efficiently and reliably ensure the exact python environment we want.

In the case of 5G modems, I, for one, welcome and fully support Apple's obsession with replacing the 5G modems with their own for two reasons: Qualcomm 5G modems are power-hungry and run hot to very hot. Ever feel that burning sensation from your smartphone tucked away in a pocket of your jeans? That is right, that is Qualcomm sending you invisible rays of love. A 4G MiFi device I used to have could easily run on a single battery charge for 8 hours, and sometimes it would still have some battery charge left. The battery in my current 5G MiFi device can barely sustain 4 hours of operation, and sometimes even less – because of the power hungry Qualcomm 5G modem.

Every single 5G device (smartphones, tablets, and MiFi devices) I have owned came with a Qualcomm 5G modem, which has always had a detrimental impact on the battery life of the device, and especially so as the data transfers increase. Given the engineering and financial resources at Qualcomm's disposal, it is bewildering that they have not even attempted to address the power consumption of their flagship product that also happens to be a cash cow. It is regrettable that Ericsson is not in the business of making consumer-grade 5G modems/chipsets, focusing on the core network equipment exclusively.

The downside of Apple eventually achieving the feature parity with Qualcomm in the future is, of course, that their 5G modem availability will be constrained to the Apple ecosystem in the embedded form unless they also decide to make their MiFi device, which is not very likely.

Dude! Where are the DJ horn sound effects!?
Campbell was a racist, and I believe bought into the theory that smokers smoked because their bodies were trying to prevent or fight off lung cancer. He also appeared to be a believer in psi. He attracted (and doubtless encouraged) authors who shared those beliefs. If you go back and read the stories from the 50s and 60s, the heroes were invariably heavy smokers, and many of the stories involved telepathy, telekinesis, etc. The role of women in the stories was usually secondary (and the boy got the girl in the end), although that was probably true of most scifi back then. I don't recall any stories in Analog where the hero was other than a white man.
Tech isn't perfected for it yet. They are still blowing up rockets, and need better quality control.
You're trying to present an "instead of" that assumes I should want native apps and should jump through hoops to find a way to get what I want from apps that aren't designed for it. I want web apps, because they already do what I want, and keep getting better.

The right answer to "download our app!" is "no, stay in your browser tab".

> try looking at existing sandbox solutions.

I have, quite extensively; virtualization and sandboxing are things I have a great deal of expertise in. The best available application sandboxing solution that provides useful comprehensive APIs is the web. The next best solutions are mobile platforms, but that doesn't help laptops/desktops (no, iOS apps on macOS don't count), and aren't designed to let the user do things like block ads.

If an application is open, then sure, there are plenty of other options. If an application isn't open, I want it contained in a sandbox not of its own making, that it can't escape, that provides sufficiently comprehensive APIs such that interesting applications get built for it, and that keeps the user in control.

Many years ago, I found a piece of corporate code that stopped working when a specific person ID was not marked active in the Users table in a DB for a specific application. That person was the long-time developer responsible for supporting that application, who finally happily retired.

This took a while to happen, since that DB was not kept updated very well, it was easy to find, and nothing malicious happened. Just some bad debug code that made it into prod.

The biggest advantage of the GPL license is also its biggest disadvantage: you have to give as freely as you have received. Everybody gets the benefit of everybody's work. Or, put a different way, nobody gets a proprietary advantage over somebody else.

The biggest advantage of the MIT license is also its biggest disadvantage: you do not have to give as freely as you receive. Everybody can have a proprietary advantage. Or, put a different way, somebody can take your work, and give you nothing in return, no money, no recognition, nothing.

It is useless to complain about somebody using your product in the manner you licensed it.
Read MS's 10k and come back and seriously tell me they are an ad company. They don't have much ad infrastructure (that's outsourced), and they make very little of their money from ads. Microsoft is a software company, and some of that software is paid for with ads. Google is an advertising company.

Incidentally, this sort of proves the point that Google's ownership of platforms where ads are displayed puts them at an advantage compared to competitors, who have to go to people like MS for space.
Brave makes a profit because they don't pay for developing the browser.
Not anytime soon. Perhaps in the future, Tesla Robots/AI could be sent to build out some comfortable habitable infrastructure first.
The only reason Google is trying to take away cookies is because they make you log into Chrome which gives you all their browsing data anyway and probably anything you type. So maybe not having a browser controlled by Google would be good.
Confirmed. Nice idea but it doesn't really define"run".
I can run some relatively large models compared to their choices. They just happen to be slow.
I think the removal of the drive stalk added cost.

AIUI, it turns out that the ability to select drive vs reverse is considered safety critical, so it has to work even if the infotainment system is not operational. This involves something along the lines of a dual-port touch sensor so that an independent, higher-reliability system can detect the gesture to change direction, and the hardware for that is not free. And the “gear shift” stalk was simple and cheap.

I haven’t tried it in an appropriate model Tesla, but I suspect you can trigger an infotainment reboot using whatever the current button press combination is, and then, before it finishes rebooting, select drive or reverse by swiping the left edge of the screen, and it will work.

Score one for car regulations doing the right thing? Maybe, but this all misses the mark, because how many people will know to do the ridiculous swipe on an invisible target when the need to get out of the way of an emergency vehicle and their infotainment system isn’t working.

(I don’t know about newer Teslas, but infotainment glitches on older models are common.)
I'm giving a talk in June, and it might be fun to do it entirely in the terminal.

Historically, I've done the slides with Markdown and rendered them to Beamer with Pandoc, and that works well enough, though slightly awkward with transitions. I might get more nerd-cred if I live in the terminal.

I'll need to check this one out.
I disagree. Can we characterize the difference in thinking between a chimp and a human? In my opinion the genetic and biological differences are trivial. But evidently humans did evolve some secret sauce—language. Language bootstrapped human consciouness to what we now call self-consciousness; to a higher level than in any other vertebrate over a period of a few million years and without the benefit of teams of world-class thinkers and programmers.

I have optimism with reason. Humans are fancy thinking animals. I admit I think the “hard problem” in consciousness research is bogus.

Show HN: I am getting married Here's my wedding website
Hi HN,
I am getting married soon, and being a software engineer, a wedding website, I thought, was a must. So here it is. I have open-sourced the code: https://github.com/sahilarora535/aishwarya-weds-sahil.

It's a static website built with Astro and Starlight and deployed on Cloudflare Pages. I initially chose Github Pages, but then I thought why not try something new. I use Umami analytics as well for very basic analytics. I am pretty bad at CSS and styling, so I hope whatever is there looks just okay.

Cheers!

Good? I think sucking the air out of the browser ecosystem might be a good thing so they slow their roll. The breakneck speed Chrome adds features and devs adopt them is part of what makes it so damn expensive to keep up.
I find it hard to believe that Google just happens to be the default search engine everywhere. And that the best user experience for Apple’s users is to have a search engine list that you have to pay to be on. And that if you change your default search engine or browser newtab half the browsers out there will nag you to switch it back for “security”. And if you visit the internet’s home page on anything other than Chrome you get bombarded with popups compelling you to install Chrome.

If you’re not aware of the “collusion” you might just be asleep at the wheel. You may be right semantically, though: it might not really be collusion—it’s simply light of day bribery.

> I'm also wondering right now why there is no local cache with p2p self discovery and sync. Should be easier than deploying an extra piece of software.

The whole design space for this type of API is weirdly under-explored, but there are some well-supported mainstream solutions out there.

Fundamentally, Redis ought to be a NuGet library, a Rust crate, or something like it. It's just a distributed hash table, putting it onto its own servers is a bit bizarre if the only need is caching.

Microsoft's Service Fabric platform and the Orleans library both implement distributed hash tables as fundamental building blocks. Both can trivially be used "just" as a cache to replace Redis, and both support a relatively rich set of features if you need more advanced capabilities.

Of course, there's Scala's Akka and the Akka.NET port also.

Nowadays you can have buttons and dials that you can roll freely or step and press (in, and even to sides). All these actions are sufficiently different to me.
