Here, how about this article: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jasmine-mooney-canadian-detaine...

If this is not sufficient (It includes statements from an ICE spokesperson), then please do mention what type of evidence it is that you're looking for.

> For all we know, the US was coordinating extradition or release into their home country.

The evidence that we have does not indicate that, and in fact, indicates that these Jasmine Mooney was unnecessarily held for 6 days across two different locations, then unnecessarily transferred to Arizona for an additional period of time.

It seems like a very faulty thought process to pretend that there exists evidence to contradict what the current evidence suggests, rather than to simply base your judgement on available evidence.

> A person attempting to illegally crossing the border (such as the two in the article) have committed a crime and could be held on that alone

Jasmine Mooney - a Canadian citizen, was crossing the boarder, with the paperwork for a work visa, in order to turn them into the US consulate to apply for the visa. This isn't even required by the way under NAFTA: https://www.uscis.gov/working-in-the-united-states/temporary....

It specifically notes that Canadian citizens need not apply at the U.S. consulate, contrary to the information provided by the customs agent.

How reasonable is it to you, that a person would attempt to follow the correct procedure to apply for a work visa according to the U.S. government's own website, then be detained and transferred several times, one of them being literally to a detention facility 209 miles away simply because her visa was denied at the border of Mexico (Before she even entered the U.S. by the way)

Here's another source for this, which includes statements by an immigration lawyer noting how unusual the handling of this is:
https://globalnews.ca/news/11080371/canadian-woman-detained-...

> Seems like a pretty good ending for them, unless you are advocating they should be charged and imprisoned here for longer?

How is it a good ending to be detained and transferred hundreds of miles because paperwork at the boarder isn't correct? Isn't the whole point that they shouldn't be in the U.S. at all? So why is it then that we waste so many resources to send them all over the U.S. instead of just denying entry?.. How does this make any sense to you?
John Langdon: The Pioneer of the Ambigram
It is important to note that Helen Keller was not born blind and deaf, though. (I am not reducing the struggle she went through. Just commentary on embodied cognition and learning.) There were around 19 months of normal speech and hearing development until then and also 3D object space traversal and object manipulation.
Ah, well, the S95D on the other hand ......... uh.

I got one hoping it works be great but they add bugs to each release.

The video decoding macro blocks around dark objects at certain illuminations.

The TV complains it's running out of space (wth) after I installed only 6 TV streaming apps. 4gb of storage is the cause and when it gets to 1gb it complains, daily.

It makes power on off sounds, "bling", when off, and when on. Surprise!

The apps all have bugs, because Tizen OS is unpopular and difficult to develop well on.
Are there examples of these types of actions in other circles outside of the .NET ecosystem? I knew about the FluentAssertions ordeal, but the Moq thing was news to me. I guess I've just missed it all.
It’s not propaganda, Noam Chomsky wrote a book about how media is used to advance otherwise unpopular government policies decades ago and the NYT is mentioned in it. If anything this post is propaganda.
I honestly don't understand what you're trying to say.
I suppose the closest equivalent would be motherboards with dual BIOS.

There if something goes wrong during an update, you always have a backup BIOS with the previous version (not necessarily factory settings). If the system fails to boot, it automatically switches to the backup BIOS and restores the main BIOS to the last working version.

Google Being Forced to Sell Chrome Is Not Good for the Web
Psychedelics are nice. I personally take LSD anywhere from once every couple weeks to once every few days. One of the reasons I use it is actually for productivity, it works very well for treating my ADHD for some reason. I would never recommend it to anybody for that purpose, but it seems to work that way for me. I wonder why?
It's just a description, not an encoding.
The thing with extensions like Tree Style Tabs and Sidebery is that nice as they may be, they’re awkwardly bolted onto the browser’s UI and the best you as a user can do to try to fix that is to hack on your userchrome and then pray that your hacks won’t be broken in some upcoming browser update.

Personally I think the solution is to treat mainline browsers like Firefox as reference implementations that several highly specialized forks are developed on top of. Only users with the most general/basic of needs would use the “vanilla” version of the browser, while everybody else would have a favorite fork that fits their needs very closely.

Arc and Zen are a decent example of this model in play. They’re very opinionated and not everybody’s cup of tea, but that’s fine, because there’s literally every other browser if something more conducive to general audiences is what you’re looking for. Browsers don’t need to be one size fits all and in fact I think are being held back by trying to be that way.

So what makes you think Strix Halo with such a weak GPU and slow memory bandwidth can handle 50k context with a usable experience for a 32B model?

Let's be realistic here.

The compute, bandwidth, capacity (if 128GB) are completely imbalanced for Strix Halo. M4 Pro with 64GB is much more balanced.

Their comment is vastly more substantiated than your feelings are. We all know that NYT suppressed a story about unlawful mass surveillance, then published it to avoid being scooped.

This is besides the mountains of bullshit they pushed to promote the Iraq war - propaganda they have never, and will never fully admit to.
Agreed. Therefore I use niether webUSB or vendor apps but rather use hardware that works with openocd and open source tooling.
Some people love shooting guns into the air, why is that so bad?
Yeah zombie / sheep grooming - it's a personal term I like to use, being blunt and to the point of what some media areas (including social media) are doing / attempting to do ... and not by accident. Yes there's brain washing, and then there's the same at a subtle level. More often what I see here, the grooming is sophisticated but most importantly constant in regard to the news feed. The sophisticated efforts flies under the radar for most ordinary folk, any irregularity dismissed by rational thinkers as just poorly researched or just biased for whatever reason. Sometimes efforts do not rely on craftiness, and the news source relies on just loudly trumpeting the cheery picked facts that sit well with the agenda - or simply omit facts or entire news items that stomps on or contradicts their most recent campaign.

The folks who have already latched onto a baseless idea which is being contradicted by science or merely a simple thought exercise seem to be most prone to grooming. The end point seem to be shutting down any questioning of the agenda they, by way of the media in their pocket, are pushing.

In Australia this story got quite unimportant once the same grooming areas, found their privates caught up in new reporting on the biggest bomb plot ever that to a critical thinker about ten seconds in seemed just a bit too contrived ... alas it gave them a very good platform and they'd been loudly drumming it up as real big bad and super important ... oops total hoax.

I probably miss some of it, but for a some of the subtle grooming efforts, I have a couple of family members more often on different ends of the political spectrum that are best described as barometers. BTW they're not that whacked -- for instance both happy to acknowledge climate change is happening. [Mind notable climate change in my locale is due more to the very big heat bubble that has recently (last 2 or 3 decades) formed from the mid to eastern edges of the large expanse of open pit coal mines inland - the 100 years plus history of summer inland storms that used to just travel west to east, is now at odds with current local storm movement with most instead diverting north and south to the coast.]
Yes, thinking evolution affects humans is as ridiculous as putting mercury into clothes, and evolution in general has been nothing but dead ends.
AstroNvim was love at first sight for me a couple weeks ago. The AstroCommunity Rust pack gave me a super robust Rust development environment with literally just a couple minutes of setup. But as mentioned, I've only been using it for a couple weeks at this point. https://astronvim.com/
yeah, I normally use that trick for other stuff, but I guess I was just especially gullible at that moment. If it really was just some ploy to get me off the line because they just didn't want to talk to me or something, well that's hilarious honestly, I wouldn't even be mad at them for that.
Care to elaborate? What you’re saying doesn’t match my experience.

I’ve paid pennies a year to store data in s3 for the better part of 5 years. Can’t even buy a hdd with what I’ve spent on s3.
The original .NET (and I think Java?) had an idea in them of basically library level capability permissions.

That sort of idea seems increasingly like what we need because reputation based systems can be gamed too easily: i.e. there's no reason an action like this ever needed network access.
Since they edited old tags here … maybe GitHub should have some kind of security setting a repo owner can make that locks-down things like old tags so after a certain time they can't be changed.
Qualifying laboratory equipment is necessary to perform its intended functions reliably, consistently, and accurately. This is particularly critical in regulated environments such as pharmaceuticals, food testing, and environmental analysis. Here’s why the qualification process is so important:
So much of our fundamental scientific progress has been made by people who were considered crazy and their ideas delusional. Even mundane software engineering is done with layers of code review and automated tests because even the best engineers are still pretty bad at it. At a larger level, humanity itself seems to largely operate more like an ensemble method where many people in parallel solve problems and we empirically find who was "hallucinating".

Which is just to say, it feels to me like there's a danger that the stochastic nature of outputs is fundamental to true creative intelligence and all attempts to stamp it out will result in lower accuracy overall. Rather we should be treating it more like we do actual humans and expect errors and put layers of process around things where it matters to make them safe.
I don't think GP is asserting that the multimodal encoding is "more rich" or "more accurate", I think they are saying that the felt modality is a different thing than the text modality entirely, and that the former isn't contained in the latter.

Couldn't agree more. I read a book (okay, I half read a book...I couldn't finish it, it was so bad) where the author (a marketer!) argued that software engineers are the most skeptical audience, and I was like, "Um, have you ever met an investigative journalist? Or people in the many many other professions that require skepticism and analytical thinking?"

From my life experience, the claimed statement actually does have some truth in it: software engineers experience a lot more bullshit marketing than other professions that require skepticism and analytical thinking, thus they, in my experience, have indeed become more immune to exaggerated marketing claims.

Also it fits my experience that software engineers are much more vocal about calling out bullshit (just consider the "bullshit bingo" game) than other professions that require skepticism and analytical thinking, thus based on the audience reactions alone, any salesman would likely indeed come to the conclusion that software engineers are the most skeptical audience.
I've always felt uncomfortable adding other people's actions to my GitHub workflows, and this is exactly the kind of thing I was worried about.

I tend to stick to the official GitHub ones (actions/setup-python etc) plus the https://github.com/pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish one because I trust the maintainers to have good security habits.
That's true, but at some point, intention and accessibility will start to clash.

Like, there used to be that fad/meme of adding as many diacritics and other Unicode appendages to a text as possible. ("Cursed text" or something I think)

The diacritics will stack and turn the characters into monstrosities that will break the page layout and generally make the text look alien and distorted.

It also makes the text hard to read, which is the entire point.

But a screen reader is kind of at a dilemma here: If it ignores the diacritics and just reads the text normally, then the "weirdness" will be missing and the text will appear out of context. To convey that, the reader would have to intentionally read the text in a distorted voice - but this will make it hard to understand and could lead to unease and confusion if the distortion starts without warning.

There is also the question whether we want unexpected tone shifts at all. Like, it would be semantically correct to read all caps text in a shouting voice, but do we really want screen readers to randomly start shouting?

(Edit: oh right, it was Zalgo, not cursed text)
Based on personal experience my guess is that the unreliability would be in the battery not the drive train.

Or more precisely put, batteries are a sort of black box they ether work or they don't work but either way you are not going to be able to open one up and find out why. that is, they are a high cost unrepairable item on the vehicle and this is a huge liability.
I agree completely.

If I see a useful extension, I want to use is on GitHub. I fork it. Sometimes I make a bookmarklet with the code instead.

I keep most extensions off until I need to use them. Then, I enable them, use them, and turn them off again. I try to even keep Mac apps to a minimum.
Right, my point is to push a more complex psychological truth, obviously they aren’t too hindered by these “defenses” if they can dismantle them and reuse them, instead their value is more symbolic, and if i dare, cultural

The West

In the Americas, United States, and Canada:

Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States and Canada to fuel instability and separatism against neoliberal globalist Western hegemony, such as, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists" to create severe backlash against the rotten political state of affairs in the current present-day system of the United States and Canada. Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social, and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics".

I don't exactly have the highest opinion of the level of intelligence of some retail gun store customer service employees, but the basic 4473 even has a section for putting in your alien number (A#) which is on a permanent resident card.

Was it? I read it as a pretty hyped up version of "old space guy says to old space people that they're not old spacing enough, presents it as rebellion". In particular (and, to be clear, it's been a while) he kept going "why not do it like apollo" when the entire point is that it isn't Apollo anymore.

Though, again, it's been a while since I watched it.

Scuba tank, the filling process takes several minutes I heard, think 15+ for a car.
The tanks in cars are around 800 bar, reinforce carbon fibre with a bladder inside.
To fill it the compressor station has to deliver higher pressure, I recall 1200 bar but not sure about it.
Also hydrogen has the oddity to produce heat when expanding, which means the filling process needs to be actively cooled.

Considering current CCS and future MCS charging ports and their speed I think the hydrogen lost another advantage if it ever had a refuelling time advantage.
What I'd like to know are the demographics of the people using the delivery apps.

Everyone I know refuses to touch them due to the massive extra costs piled on top, but whenever I swing by somewhere in-person to get takeout, I have the same experience as you - there's always at least a few bags on the "Doordash shelf" or equivalent. Who's burning all this money?!
It does if you consider that everyone can act as a relay.

When using NuGet packages I usually won't even consider ones with non-Microsoft dependencies, and I like to avoid third-party dependencies altogether. I used to feel like this made me a weird conspiracy theorist but it's holding up well!

It also has led to some bad but fun choices, like implementing POP3 and IMAP directly in my code, neither of which worked well but taught me a lot?
Well written, well thought out, sobering article. Worth the read.
Yes, I could have been more equitable for sure. Maybe I can do a better Emacs deep-dive someday.

Fonts should probably not do this. This would be better served as the font being what's in negative, and then the backdrop behind it being an unrelated graphical element, perhaps accomplished with css.
Everything is a double-edged sword - even a single-edged sword.
Missed them too. Always was annoyed by FluentAssertions anyway, some contractor added it to a project that we took over couldn't see the value add.
How does SBOM and such account for this? If you’re a package maintainer, do you need to include CI pipeline plugins, their dependencies, going down as far as the pipeline host, in your security-relevant dependencies? Hard problems :/
The per GB price on S3 is higher than on bulk HDDs. This is easily observed. What you are saying is your data storage needs don't even justify a single HDD. This is a scaling issue and not a pricing issue.
Boil your eggs by steaming them for excellent results based purely on timer and no need to use anything to cook with other than water since the temperature of steam is extremely consistent. This works very well for results ranging anywhere from barely soft-boiled to quite hard-boiled. Of course, after removing from steaming basket, you'll still need the normal cold shock techniques for removing the shell.
Arguably, Google divesting Chrome would be great for the web. This piece seems to be looking at Google at large (and I think all of Alphabet would be better scope there).

Certainly this would be unpopular here but I would be all for aggressive trust-busting beyond what the DOJ has done historically, including vertical integrations.

Right now tech is a strange feudal state with hundreds of thousands of small teams anchored to a few hydra-like super-corporations on a consuming destructive rampage. Somehow, with the most advanced computer and technological systems to ever be known by man, we're looking to increase working hours and cut benefits, for "profits" that are not quite realized by the labor class or the end users.

Gonna be interesting to see what happens. I know Wall Street will place their bets for what they want to happen right along side what's obviously going to shake out once the market becomes 'rational.'

> What do you mean cloning boiler plate logic?

As an example, each tool callable by the AI needs its own input JSON schema, and in its execute function needs to send a request to the client, client needs to have a callback that handles that request, etc. it is very boilerplatey, bridges across multiple implementation languages, in completely different parts of the codebase, and Claude knocks it out in like 30 seconds flat so I can focus on the parts of the implementation that it slightly fucked up, but it usually gets the boilerplate bang-on.
But what does the NYT get out of it?
Self updating requires learning to learn, which I'm not sure we know how to do.
The point of the article is that making a service at S3's scale with such a simple API exposed to the end user, without exposing the provisioning and durability and security and performance to make it all work...
