That's the main problem with it - it's a framework.

I don't want a framework that takes over an entire project and mandates the use of a given build system, configuration system, source code structure, etc. This tends to break apart when you want to have more complex build steps; eg. matrix builds, subsequent build actions on artifacts, integration with codegen like string interning, multiple target platforms which are likely not an ESP32 (like a simulation target running on the host), integration with linters/checkers, integration with test frameworks, etc.

And the technology choices ESP-IDF made are also... controversial (CMake and Kconfig! Plus a whole bunch of Python glue to actually make it work together).

Just give me libraries that I can build/link against and let me bring my own build system - or pick a build system that is actually extensible and will scale to more complex scenarios.

I'm not sure whether it's listening to more than the wake word, but I've seen Siri wake up quite often when I very definitely haven't said anything approaching "Siri", and see it occasionally on other people's devices too. I remember listening to a BBC podcast in the car once and there was once piece of audio from it that would reliably activate Siri. I was a bit nonplussed by it and rewound it four or five times to check, which it did every time. I think accidental activation is a much more likely explanation, which is still dreadful from a privacy perspective.
> There's nothing special about cars, doing things in public places does not come with a reasonable expectation of privacy.

You're probably talking about pedestrians on the sidewalk (which I also disagree about) but are you going to say the interior of the car is not private? Why would a home be private if a car is not? Spying in the kitchen but not the bedroom? Spying in the bedroom as long as it's audio only? Is my backyard private? Is anything?

> I don't know where you're getting this one. It's definitely not supported by the article you linked.

Dig deeper then. I'd find the reference for you, but when you're confronted with it then you'll just probably just argue it's standard for shrinkwrapped "all rights reserved" kind of legalese and it doesn't matter that we're expected to tolerate this kind of bullshit because we don't have the technology to stick a DNA sequencer under the seat. But that's exactly the point. The abuse is SOP now and for whatever reason, some people will always make excuses for it.
this is an awesome article, I really enjoyed reading it.
New President though, yeah?
I’ve been a .Net developer since it launched, but recently I find myself using it less and less. I’m so much more productive with LLM assistance and they aren’t very good at C#. (Seriously, I thought AI coding was all exaggeration until I switched to Python and realized what the hype was all about, these language models are just so much more optimized for python)

Plus now Microsoft is being a bully when it comes to Cursor and the other VS Code forks, and won’t let the .net extensions work. I jumped through a lot of hoops but they keep finding ways to break it. I don’t want an adversarial relationship with my development stack.

I miss C# and I really don’t like Python as a language, but I don’t see myself doing a lot more C# in the future if these trends continue.

> I can break your safe API by getting the constraints wrong on unsafe code inside that API.

This doesn't make any sense at all as a broader point. Of course you can break the safe API by introducing a bug inside the implementation! I honestly just cannot figure out how you have a misunderstanding of this magnitude, and I'm forced to conclude that we are mis-communicating at some level.

I did read the rest of your comment, and the most significant point I can take away from it is that you're making a claim about scale. I think the dissonance introduced with comments like the one above makes it very hard for me to trust your experience here and the conclusions you've drawn from it. But I will note that whether Rust's safety story scales is from my perspective a different thing entirely from the factual claim that Rust enables safe encapsulation of `unsafe` usage.

You may say that just because Rust enables safe encapsulation doesn't mean programmers using Rust actually follow through with that in practice. And yes, absolutely, it doesn't. You can't derive an is from an ought. But in my experience, it totally does. I do work on lots of "hobby" stuff in Rust (although I try to treat it professionally, I just mean that I am not directly paid for it beyond donations), but I am also paid to write Rust too. I do not have your experience with Rust at scale, so I cannot refute it. But you've said enough questionable things here that I can't trust it either.
ConnectorX: Accelerating Data Loading From Databases to Dataframes
I was thinking more of when a sufficiently advanced device would be able to “decide” the task would be worth using its own capabilities to write some code to tackle the problem rather than brute force.

For small problems it’s not worthwhile, for large problems it is.

It’s similar to choosing to manually do something vs automate it.

"The famed mantra of the liberal left in the early months of the pandemic – trust the science – has faded from view, as hero worship ceases for the bureaucrat scientists (Anthony Fauci) and even for the pharmaceutical behemoths that developed, with federal assistance, the Covid vaccines."

There's a backlash because 'trust the science' actually meant trusting something or someone without question or discussion (If you had the wrong ideas or opinions on Covid or the vaccine during this time, you were fired from your job and cheered on by angry liberal mobs).

This actually sounds...more...like...religion.

The title of the page is Underpants 2.0, but the renderings are nothing like what the title promises.

I guess there is some automatic translation going on. I've said it a thousand times but I can say it again:

There are very few universal truths in life but here's one: Do not use uncalled for automatic translations. Ever. Certainly no type of translation without prooreading.

It is deeply disrespectful of your users. Should they want to read the page in another language than it was published in, there is a perfectly functional button in their web browser.

Your users get by on the rest of the web, and they can surely manage your page. Unless they have to hunt for the existence of your home cooked "language" setting, which may or may not even exist, without which they have to guess which words translate to underpants. It may be fun the first time, but believe me, it gets boring quickly. Any web shop that presents me with a butchered version of my locale gets closed immediately without giving it any further attention.

If anything is different between the two resulting configurations of possibly affected particles, such as the state of the particles of the detector, then interference can't happen. It's not just about whether the individual particle going through one of the slits is in an identical location.

An important thing to realize is that interference is a thing that happens between whole configurations of affected particles, not just between alternate versions of a single particle going through the slit.

Seeing it get rolled into a single IRM is a good thing. That IRM is cloud-only is not.

I do feel that Grafana are slowly becoming more cloud-first, regardless of that a lot of work is done in OSS. Even if I look at the blog, most content there is about Grafana Cloud. The "Grafana LGTM Stack news" section isn't navigable.

With Opsgenie shutting down, and I see that DataDog releasing their on-call feature; maybe migrating away from the LGTM solution might be a whole thing if there's nothing to replace OnCall; not that it would be easy, mind you.
The goal isn't to capture all of the randomness of the water but instead to capture enough noise to produce a seed. All of the changes in the room get averaged into a pixel. The water just makes the room change more.

"They just don't care about privacy, and companies know this."

They don't prioritize privacy over other concerns, largely convenience, because (to date) they haven't been burned by that choice or at least haven't been burned badly enough or aren't aware. I think that, in the coming months and years, this is going to change.

My family has started paying attention to this sort of thing and opting out of things that they see as risks to privacy. A few years ago they were like "yeah, you're right, but..." -- not so much anymore.

Especially if these are people in your own life instead of randoms on the Internet, it's probably worth revisiting this. A great many people I know in my life saying things like this were spinning a very different yarn when it was Obama, the ACA or his executive orders. Or Biden doing... Well anything. In other words it's not good faith. It's a post-facto rationalization to justify whatever Trump is doing.

It's of course harder to do this exercise for a random stranger on the Internet. It's always possible this person was arguing the same for other Presidents. But I'd bet dollars to donuts few were.

Why rents are still rising too fast
Right, you can like public transport and that's fine. But most people don't care and prefer to have cars. This is especially true if you have a family.

Just two examples:

- food shopping is a lot more expensive if you have to buy local and you're restricted to how much you can carry

- it's kind of rude taking a sick or injured child to the doctor on public transportation

This is obvious if you look at behavior. When people get more money, they buy a car or often multiple cars. When they have a family, people tend to move to suburbs where cars are the primary mode of transportation. Even in cities with good public transportation, like New York, wealthy people still often own cars and use them along with private car service.

People might answer some survey stating they like public transportation but their behavior suggests otherwise. And these surveys are frame against an impossible ideal that does not exist. Look at behavior.

Your comment about the ADC is interesting. I just threw a good-quality 10-turn pot on my Pi Pico the other day for a quick test and the readings were far noisier than I expected, even for a 12-bit input. My immediate assumption was that it was either a board layout problem, or the 3.3V supply was noisy.

I figured I'd get around to looking at the supply on a scope at some point, but you're saying that the ADC itself isn't very good?

Maybe you know something I don't but in country we were always MOPP Ready:

MOPP Ready – Protective mask is carried. First set of suit, gloves, and boots are available within two hours, second set within six hours.

My mask was usually in the truck or in my pack. We qualify with our masks on a yearly basis. It could be argued that the chance of chemical deterrents that require MOPP 0 and above is negligible due to the our current landscape but that can honestly change based on the opponent or geography.
I get that whoever made and posted that terrible youtube short is annoyed, but if they had done a basic search online, specifically "how to edit a brush in gimp", the first result would have taken them to this page:

https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-brush-dialog.html

Which says:

It is a general rule that you cannot alter the resources that GIMP pre-installs for you: brushes, patterns, gradients, etc; only ones that you create yourself.

It's okay to be annoyed when something doesn't work the way you want it to, but RTFM before you make a rant about it. It's the bare minimum.

> "Well, to clarify, then, I think that's exactly what the GP was asking: "what's missing from Linear to make it a superset of a project tracker — where there's some particular view you could point your PMs to and tell them to use that view as the project tracker?" "

ok but that would mean creating a complete project tracker view as a subview in linear or recreating linear as a project tracker tool and then adding the features not part of a project tracker back in an non obstrusive way. Both are not feasible for linear to do.

> "and be understood to be a highly opinionated version of a kanban-board tool"

no they are fundamentally different abstractions i think this is part of the misunderstanding. a kanban board maps story state to swimlanes and you pull tickets through lanes/ states with your workflow. a project tracker keeps the relative position of stories for most state transitions eg. stories don't move if they transition from finished to delivered. the lanes in a project tracker are an abstaction level above story state.

Why do you think this? It doesn't matter what the current administration thinks. If it sets the legal precedent that it can undo pardons by prior administrations based on little more than what the president thinks, then that power is also available to be used by future administrations based on their own opinions as well.

Cisco grew through acquisitions. The only example I can think of is Ascend. They made great products for connecting small offices and homes to digital lines.

One thing I never saw discussed is the dotcom bubble was inflated by the price premium investors paid for buying Ascend stock. Cisco than paid a premium to those shareholders to buy Ascend and than finally the premium paid for the future earnings of Cisco. I see that as triple counting future earnings.
It's not at all unreasonable for consumers to demand vendors--especially those with as much market power as Amazon--to take steps to foster trust that, though they may not rise to the level of "proving a negative," still go some ways towards assuring us they are not violating our privacy.

The fact that they don't take any of those steps (and the fact that we are in a thread about they're disabling this privacy feature in the first place!) goes to show that consumers have every right to be skeptical and indeed to refuse to bring these products into our lives.

I think it's inane to complain that consumers are placing an impossibly high standard on Amazon when Amazon themselves choose not to meet even the lowest of standards.
