Honestly, I'm surprised that they didn't pay a foreign IT company $100 million to for software less functional than a spreadsheet like our government departments usually do.
Or does it go through the hard solid surface and emerge unscathed on the other side? Probably not or it will fall towards the center of Earth and bounce back and forth, at least until it loses its supersolidity, which I bet will happen pretty quickly.

It's extremely region dependent. Some areas have fb marketplace, some custom services.
Price volatility might be bad for trade because seller and buyer don’t know what they should do at any point. So it slows trade down, which is bad for economy. It makes buying furniture seem like day trading. This happened in Turkey couple years ago
The taxi cab companies were free to innovate and create their own app. And we could continue to have drivers who's credit card machine didn't work until suddenly it does because you don't have any cash. Regulatory capture is anti-capitalism.

Yes, let's throw away the bad laws that are only there to prop up ossified power structures that exist for no good reason, and innovate!

Some laws are good, some laws are bad. we don't have to agree on which ones are which, but it's an oversimplification to frame it as merely that.

I too have read Manufacturing Consent, so now.

We're talking about social media though, which is mostly smaller independent actors trying to make a buck.

And the ads/ranking systems for Meta are really really large and complicated, and to tune them for or against a particular political candidate would be a huge effort which would most likely be done by a bunch of SF based left wing engineers and data scientists, so it seems unlikely that this would have happened without leaks (given that everything leaks for FB/Meta lately).
People watch the wrong kind of fiction.

AI that wants to screw with people won't go for nukes. That's too hard and too obvious. It will crash the stock market. There's a good chance that, with or without a little nudge, humanity will nuke itself over it.
That sounds like the seller doing stupid things though. Beyond some text parsing and suggesting splitting the listings, what can marketplace do here? (or allowing to report incorrect listing)
You have to be willing to entertain evidence from biased sources when you’re considering politically charged questions. By all means, consult evidence from various ideologies, but don’t hold out for unbiased scholarship that will never exist.

If the researchers had written articles and held talks about undocumented HCI commands to gain direct access to the chip, and hammered on the security impact of having such undocumented commands, they could've probably achieved the same thing without resorting to lying.

I don't think the British empire was "uniquely nefarious", but I think most of the indigenous people of the places that they colonised experienced it as being _fairly_ nefarious! I'm not aware of many former colonies celebrating Colonisation Day or bemoaning the withdrawal of the British Army from their territories.

Even one of the most anglo-friendly and prosperous former colonies, the USA, didn't have very nice things to say about the Empire when they were a part of it.

The Japanese company Cyberdyne makes several, e.g.:

But what Cyberdyne makes is, emphatically, not for hiking or for work. That one at the link is a very bulky, very slow, very expensive medical exoskeleton.

When it comes to commercially-available powered devices, the Chinese favor hip exoskeletons and, more rarely, upper-body industrial exoskeletons. Check these out:

There are also passive (unpowered) systems that assist with grounding weight, and these necessarily extend all the way to the foot:

Arcteryx and the US (ex-Google) company Skip are different -- they're working on models that appear to favor the knee rather than the hip. See:

I don't know if this is commercially available yet, though.
Ah well I wish you all the best with it. Sounds like a form of bullying to me :( Might not hurt to set your phone to record mode during some of those meetings. ;) I know what you're saying about making a legal case. Legal stuff is always a pain, not somewhere you wanna go if you can help it. Its bluffing right? They need to think you might consider sue-ing and could win, even if you know you wouldn't. Personally, if I was in your position, I'd be looking at what skills were in demand locally, and ruthlessly up-skilling in that stuff, during work time, ideally by working on stuff they need anyway. But, again, easier said than done...
Yes you can also just put your video on a DVD and bury it in the garden.

But usually the reason they want their videos to be free is that they have a message they want to communicate!

If you want people to watch your video you don't have a choice but to upload it to YouTube and let Google make money off your work :(
This is a fantastic idea. It reminded me of the Dispo app (not sure if people use it anymore) where pictures you take show up only the next day morning. It might be alright to let people pick their preferred 3 hours, and maybe they can change it once a week.

Having said that, apps which have tried to slow people down haven't been too successful. People on HN might like it more than the general population.
Sometimes with big policy stuff I wonder how much is the effect of the policy vs the effect of the overall societal inertias and momentums there are. Like regardless of that policy, would costs have massively increased (inflation, financialization of healthcare)? Would organizational overhead have increased? Has it decreased in other industries? The policy might still have made it worse, of course.
How so? Apparently, the conclusion is that Excel is the wrong tool for such tasks, so it should be used less, not more.
A somewhat related side-note (might be interesting): William Dalrymple recently talked about - "How in India the Irish Transformed from Colonised to Colonisers" - https://nitter.net/DalrympleWill/status/1898036558898585768 - and not quite/always the benevolent/sympathetic ones.

Besides we still call these events "famines"? Interesting. I thought genocide would be the word, isn't it?

> the industry kinda gave up on using powerful RPC frameworks with language integration

The trouble is that ties both ends to the same implementation language. Web-style RPC became popular because its simplicity meant it wasn't tied to any particular features of any particular language.
This argument is tired and frustrating. I have heard it so many times. A new government comes to power promising a whole bunch, fails miserably, then says 'well I inherited this, it isn't my fault' and walks back all the promises (or just ignores them).

If you want to make an argument that the state of the US economy is in peril, feel free, but dragging this common trope into the discussion doesn't help.
Last time I did a deep dive into this, found a few papers suggesting that it can be any salt imbalance (potassium, magnesium or calcium) that triggers cramps.

However, potassium and calcium are a lot more prevalent in standard diets so it's usually lack of magnesium that is the culprit.

Good luck to WG14 (or maybe a faction within it?) as they seem to have decided to go make their own C++ competitor now, it's a weird time to do that, but everybody needs a hobby.
I don't think this is the case here. The English and Scottish curricula (and, I imagine, those of Wales and NI) are different. Most aspects of British colonialism are (were?) simply not taught in England unless you specifically chose that subject late in high school.

Looking back, it's also kind of amazing to think that the Northern Ireland Conflict was largely glossed over in English schools while it was going on, but the news coverage was pretty one-sided also.

Once upon a time someone showed me an amazing demo of streaming over a million rows a second into a table in HTML.

I told him that was cool. I asked him where the screen was that could draw a million rows, and after my confusion was sorted it turned out there wasn't one and I probably should have guessed as much. The screen was a regular screen and could only display 60 or so rows legibly and that is life, so the other million (minus 60) were streaming "invisibly" into the bitbucket that was maybe the user will scroll this into view within the next second before the data is going to change again, but almost certainly won't, because well, a million a second is actually quite a lot.

So I thought for a minute and asked him why he didn't just send 60 and he quickly said well that wouldn't be as fast.

And I still think about that.
I'd learned about the internment camps from a human rights perspective, and the loss of family businesses, but I'm ashamed to admit I'd never learned about the economic impact until now.

I had to check the veracity of this, and it seems to be true. By 1945, Japanese American farms were responsible for 30%+ of the agricultural output of California.
100%. I refuse to have an account, which means I need to use my partners to access marketplace, and a few landcruiser groups (which is mostly buying and selling parts, or advice)

It pains me that car forums and classifieds have succumbed to Facebook. I have no other need for Facebook, but on those fronts, Facebook is king.

IH8MUD is really the king for advice. But for 2nd hand parts, or 2nd hand vehicles, in Australia, it’s Facebook groups.

I suspect this is quite popular behaviour, as I recently saw that groups can enable anonymous posts (obviously still need an account). Which I prefer to catfishing people who are genuinely helping out, and who I feel a sense of community with. I just refuse to consent to Facebook being part of that relationship.
I've head the kinds TV show Bluey is especially good for dogs as it's mostly in their visible colour spectrum - I must say, our dog does seem to watch it when we have children over and it's on.
First party ads aren't evil usually tho. If someone builds their own ad infrastructure they might as well build it properly because they know it's going to be their fault if someone uploads something fishy.

In my experience only the big ad networks let you post anything. Small specialized ad platforms usually have actual moderation.

Edit:// by the way it wasn't that hard to get ads trough ublocks filters by self hosting them either. But that's rarely really evil and I never saw that abused.
What do you mean by glowies? In this context.
There was another brand that went through Kickstarter recently:

I have one of their units. It definitely assists with hiking in the standard modes and the "aqua mode" on the device does increase resistance. As an able-bodied person who hikes for sport, I don't tend to use it much. Though I sometimes throw it on with aqua mode for some added resistance for smaller hikes.

In everything you've listed, my conclusion is the opposite. The spread across multiple managed services is not a bad thing, that's actually better considering that using them reduces operational overhead. That is, the spread is irrelevant if the services are managed.

The ugliness of k8s is that you're bringing your points of failure together into one, mega point of failure and complexity.

Final aside - you absolutely should be using IaC for any serious deployments. If you're using clickops or CLI then the context of the discussion is different and the same critera do not apply.

Complicated doesn't begin to describe him! I think that, by our modern standards, I would be very unhappy to be a citizen of Napoleon's empire.

However, considering the available governments in Europe at the tail end of the 18th century, I think a time-traveller such as myself would be more interested in spending a few years in France than any of her neighbours. I imagine I would think differently if I came from an aristocratic background!
> Researchers Miguel Tarascó Acuña and Antonio Vázquez Blanco of Tarlogic Security, who presented their findings yesterday at RootedCON in Madrid.

I'd like to believe the didn't have ulterior reasons to cry "backdoor" knowing that's not the case. That would be a huge indictment of the researchers' characters.

They wanted the spotlight and calling something a "backdoor in a chip used by a billion devices" does the job.
does google have a good relationship to the current administration?

I am not aware of a google-lobbyist being as close to trump as Zuckerberg and Musk are, and I definitely see the possibility of these two manipulating the administration against google.
The problem is that people (correctly) identify problems in mainstream media, then immediately imprint on a youtuber, talk radio host, or literal enemy propagandist who they decide has the actual truth.
This would require you to have root access to the thing, at that point you might as well write literally any code you like and not bother with the HCI commands.

I have a few thoughts after reading this:

- I started to see LLMs as a kind of search engines. I cannot say they are better than traditional search engines. On one hand, they are better at personalizing the answer, on the other hand, they hallucinate a lot.

- There is a different view on how new scientific knowledge is made. It's all about connecting existing dots. Maybe LLMs can assist with this task by helping scientists discover relevant dots to connect. But as the author suggests, this is only part of the job. To find the correct ways to connect the dots, you need to ask the right questions, examine the space of counterfactuals, etc. LLMs can be useful tool, but they are not autonomous scientists (yet).

- As someone developing software on top of LLMs, I am slowly coming to a conclusion that human-in-the-loop approaches seem to work better than fully autonomous agents.
The affiliate link could be 2x more expensive than other stores. I'd rather see the prices/pick a trusted retailer than just buy from something sketchy like Amazon.

I'm probably out of touch here though, I don't watch YouTubers or streamers in a way that I remember who is who. If I'm watching a video about a product I've likely clicked a few at random to get an overall feeling for it.
Our Grotesque Era
The truth is simple, yet insidiously difficult to manifest:

We are to self-evolve ourselves such that we are completely compassionate.

Our love for our fellow human beings leads us to understand how we sometimes act selfishly with them, causing them unhappiness. Love for them then dictates that we need to be better people, so we turn to our Creator to help us overcome our selfish impulses, that are borne of our animal nature and cultures' pack-mentalities.

By sending love to our Creator (who needs nothing of the sort), the universe resonates that love back into our heart. That reflective compassion gives us the strength to make better choices, which leads us to actually becoming better.

Love is powerfully transformative. First, we must transform ourselves towards greater love, then we must help transform our societies to compassionately care for all our fellow human beings.

That is the ENTIRE purpose of religion: to help us create peace and happiness for ALL human beings.

And this absolutely is kindof selfish on my part, because helping others learn this greatest of all truths is a benefit to my own happiness. But the purity of my purpose here requires this message to have no material benefit for me, only karmic benefit.

Peace be with you all. Compassion is the way, and, as Rumi said, "The Way goes in."

[As to the Vatican, they traded their souls for a small price when they covered up their mass child rape (and are now declaring bankruptcy instead of paying their victims). A Catholic person can connect with God and become consumed by love, but the power organization that is the Catholic Church has damned themselves to hell, because they chose money over truth and compassion. Jesus says precisely what will happen to those who harm children.]

Yet, a significant number of stock investors still suffer heavy losses because the market gets rattled by these exaggerated, attention-grabbing headlines. While the consensus here rightly labels this a non-issue—debug commands, not a backdoor, with no remote exploit possible—the sensationalism still has real-world impact. It’s frustrating to see how security hype, often just for internet clout or CVEs as pointed out, can overshadow Espressif’s solid response and transparency efforts, leaving retail investors to bear the brunt of the volatility.

tl;dr: they promised savings of one billion Euros but it instead cost over 200 million.
I wasn't necessarily saying that FB single handedly manipulated an entire nation into making huge swings on a national election. But it doesn't need to. When an election is decided by some 6-7 swing states with extremely slim margins, targeting ads to those regions can change the result. A few thousand votes swung would barely register in any mass analysis as effective (nor would it be in any other proper ad campaign. It'd in fact be a gross failure of you spent millions to get maybe a few thousand buyers), but still change the result.

I'll admit I haven't researched brexit's margins enough to see if that same theory sticks, so I won't comment much further on that example.

Now even ignoring all that: I feel the intent is the real damming part, not necessarily the success or lack thereof. As a recent example: Musk's campaign in Germany for the afd party failed overall, but it's still very bad taste for an outside party to try an influence a national election that is not representing them.

>I get that it's easier to blame outside actors for political things you don't like, but that's rarely the right answer.

There is very rarely one single issue that affects political things. But I feel it's important to point out all attack vectors and try to at least attempt to make sure policies work as intended.

The ultimate issue in all of this is people ignoring their best interests and falling for lies and misinformation (from all sources), but this chain was focused on media ads, so that's what I discussed.

Yep, an issue with 'old fashioned' comms.

But modern comms will switch bands or 'glide' frequencies in sympathy with the changing ['fading'] MUF, etc. and can do so automatically (using OWF in conjunction with IPS also helps). Combine that with modern encoding/digital modulation and say DRM of the right kind—Digital Radio Mondiale—for audio etc. and it's pretty damn reliable.

Want better? Diversity TX/RX and or multichannel via in-band and or cross-band into comparators etc.
There are at least two problems with this article:

1) If you can hack a current version of macOS to run on non Apple hardware, you can probably also hack a current version of macOS to run on older Apple hardware (see OpenCore Legacy Patcher).
2) Support for macOS on x86 hardware will be discontinued in the not so distant future, putting Hackintoshes into the same category as old x86 Apple hardware.
