Hitman is an example that contradicts your point about gameplay, guards will see you in mirrors and act appropriately. They'll be doing that for gameplay with a non-graphical method, but you need to show it to the player graphically for them to appreciate the senses available
I hate to say it this way but Fox News is 100% the reason for this. They’ve realized some formula for engaging elderly people in an addictive way.

I have an elderly neighbor family friend whose husband watches nothing but Fox News all day every day. It’s a very strange reality to visit. Every so she will ask me some reality check like whispering to me “do you really think we need to be this worried about the communists?”. All I am able to do is reassure her that liberals are generally good people and have a sense of morality and virtue that would rival that of any “Christian right wing” person. I tell her the world is filled with good people and what she sees just isn’t a true reality.
This is an internal tool (which was open sourced) made by the French government digital service to be used by French government employee on French government infra. I do not think it is trying to be a better solution for individuals. It’s trying to be a better solution for gov employees.
The early web was not terminal based but that doesn't automatically mean it was "graphical". HTML was meant to be processed by any number of different user agents. A lot of early HTML tags were semantic in nature in order to convey the intent of the element. Conveying intent allows non-graphical browser, meaning everything from spiders to screen readers to AI agents, to use a page with the same capability.

People abusing HTML for the purpose of styling is the whole reason for CSS existing. A well written HTML document should have a very clean structure. The CSS has the ability to do all the crazy graphical styling. The old CSS Zen Garden was an amazing demonstration of that, an incredibly well structured and mostly semantic HTML document could have any number of crazy styles only by varying the CSS.

Bullshit HTML loaded with bullshit CSS frameworks generated by megabytes of bullshit JavaScript is a complete failure of web devs to master the medium. Unless a web page is absolutely reliant on a graphical interface (Google Maps, a game, etc) there's no reason that it shouldn't render passably in lynx. Even in those cases it should have noscript guardrails to provide at least an explanation as to why it can't work.

I agree. Does anyone know positive sci-fi apart from Star Trek?
How frequently a wave would go through just 1 of the slits. If you threw a baseball at a wall with two baseball sized slits it would basically always go through just one of the slits. You would never see an interference pattern.

This is because a baseball is interacting with other matter on the way to the slit. A photon on the other hand might not interact with any matter and it stays as a wave and you can see an interference pattern on the other side.
In general it may be the latter. Portia spiders in particular, though, will observe a target, observe their surroundings, then navigate a complex path around and through structures that block their vision of the target to reach a destination that will allow them to attack it. Suggesting very much that they form some kind of model of their surroundings, plan a path through it, and remember that path.
why not Rust?

Anders: When you have a product that has been in use for more than a decade, with millions of programmers and, God knows how many millions of lines of code out there, you are going to be faced with the longest tail of incompatibilities you could imagine. So, from the get-go, we knew that the only way this was going to be meaningful was if we ported the existing code base. The existing code base makes certain assumptions -- specifically, it assumes that there is automatic garbage collection -- and that pretty much limited our choices. That heavily ruled out Rust. I mean, in Rust you have memory management, but it's not automatic; you can get reference counting or whatever you could, but then, in addition to that, there's the borrow checker and the rather stringent constraints it puts on you around ownership of data structures. In particular, it effectively outlaws cyclic data structures, and all of our data structures are heavily cyclic.

Of course foreigners are wary of traveling to the US. If Western European tourists and green card holders are getting arrested and deported after being incarcerated for who knows how long, there is no way I’m going to risk losing money and my family’s personal safety on a vacation trip.

If the US doesn’t want to welcome foreign tourists, I can spend my money elsewhere, no problem.
Just a heads up - it looks like the "Path Tracing Off" shots have ray tracing disabled as well. In the shots starting at 1:22 (the car and then the plaza), it looks like they just have the base screenspace reflections enabled. Path tracing makes a difference (sometimes big, sometimes small) for diffuse lighting in the game. The kind of reflection seen in those scenes can be had by enabling "normal" ray tracing in the game, which is playable on more systems.

Much of this is because there is not much of a recorded music industry before 1950.

Miles Davis Kind of Blue was one of the best selling albums of the 50s. The #1 best seller though of the decade is the Elvis Christmas album.

By the 60s, Sinatra and the Rat pack were considered lame. That was your dad's music. The Beatles are the Beatles because of the size of the baby boomer generation and that someone had to be the stars of the new generation. As great as the Beatles are, the marketing of the Beatles albums was just as great.

It does have massive, and all encompassing walls. They aren't built like how we used to build defensive walls in history, those are obsolete. Instead they are lined with chainlink and razor wire, contain radar and other systems for across the horizon detection, have runways for aircraft, silos for ballistic missiles, magazines for gunships, missile carriers, submarines, satellites and other craft in outer space with classified capabilities, entire datacenters. It is one of the most well defended positions in human history.
Fascinating. Last week, I was vibe-coding a project turning the US Constitution into TLA+, but eventually ran out of context window.

There is a sense - engineer's disease - that laws can made better by formal specification, but I've learned that is naive. However, still I believe that laws can be made less prone to abuse by red-teaming them. Even if the laws aren't formally specified, the systems can be and that is valuable in its own way.
I am fairly certain this is satire
There are type system gotchas. My favorites have to do with integers in place of JS's double-only numerics, the treatment of undefined and nulls, especially in arrays.

The LLM's are just fine at AST translation, though they might inject their quirky preferences if you don't watch them carefully. Suggestion: use the LLM's, but interactively, to translate one script at a time, starting with the simpler ones. Tell the LLM to explicitly call out potential issues. Manually review each, and incorporate the issues and preferences you learn into the prompt. If all goes well, the process will quickly converge on a cut and paste job, but don't be tempted to fully automate it if it's a hundred scripts -- different matter if it's thousands.
Macron’s approval ratings must be below 3% by now. If he had any backbone, he’d resign immediately.
Absolutely. I think that's more well known though, he wrote that Poe was his "God of fiction". His influence on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Jules Verne and H G Wells is probably less well know. He was also a big influence on Alfred Hitchcock who wrote "It's because I liked Edgar Allan Poe's stories so much that I began to make suspense films".
If I’m looking for code changes:

git log -S <the-string>

If it’s commit messages I’m interested in:

git log --grep <the-word-or-phrase>

Sometimes I want to know “all the commits that introduced a pattern”:

git blame —- $(git grep -P -l 'the.*regex') | grep -P 'the.*regex'

This last one I use frequently enough that I wrote a little shell script for it, called "git-blep" (for "blame-grep")

If there’s a function name that you’re logging, then you might get mileage from

git log -L :<the-function-name>:<the-file-name>

Though that probably would not have worked in the original author’s case.
isn't "Google Docs" the trademark https://about.google/brand-resource-center/trademark-list/ ?
Maybe you are not building something in the sector but do you have any idea of how shitty collaborative work is for public agents ?

The possibility of data being sifoned back to the US if they use american cloud services has millions of public agents not being able to collaborate online.

Some of them try to provide on premise versions of the software but Microsoft want you so bad to pay for 365 or teams that they are willing to maintain only super old versions.

I spoke with a guy reponsible for 100k public agents who told me his only choice is to host Sharepoint 2011 (in 2025 !)

So maybe Docs is not as innovative as Notion but hey, we need as efficient as we can public servants. And we will do that by providing modern tools they can use online with their colleagues.

+ When we think of Microsoft we think about the Office Suite but in lot of cases they do the authentication with Active Directory. Go luck doing interoperability or SSO accross agencies when all of them rely on closed source code and are locked in by vendors...

We're actually solving with OIDC identity federation called ProConnect.
X86 is still needed for a lot of software. The emulation just isn't there yet.
Here in Hungary sometimes online stores charge you extra if you want to pay with cash.
The file viewer is especially strange. Scrolling is janky on iOS (presumably they are trying to control scroll position and this interferes with Safari's scroll bar). Last time I looked into the file viewer, I believe it was rendered as a web component with its own shadow DOM and a react root inside.

Although off-topic for this thread, one minor annoyance is how the "improved" Issues interface no longer displays pagination controls until several megabytes of JavaScript finish loading. Meanwhile the Pull Request page, one of the oldest parts of the GitHub interface, is capable of displaying pagination controls before JavaScript loads, and it's interactive (i.e. clicking on pagination buttons will work as expected, even without JavaScript).

Want to note that web-based UI doesn't have to be this way. In the case of rendering text with syntax highlighting, VS Code shows that it can be done in a performant manner. As for functionality without JavaScript, embracing standard web APIs, etc., that is exactly what frameworks like React Router (formerly Remix) are designed for.

I think this is satire and 100% intentional.
25 thousand dollars per screen and "an additional software subscription is required". Hypes security by leaning on WireGuard but has remote access and also "gathers some user experience metrics to assess whether the system is well calibrated. This includes metrics like audio input levels, color histograms, the presence of persons in the tonari area, and the performance of automated noise reduction algorithms".

R&D is a sunk cost that is largely paid by their iGPUs. Selling at cost is not a subsidy and that is not relevant here since they should be making money off every sale. I tried estimating their costs a few months ago and found that they had room for up to a 10% margin on these, even after giving retailers a 10% margin. If they are not making money from these, it would be their fault for not building enough to leverage economics of scale.
Maybe focus less on what others are doing and more on backing your own views with actions. For instance, you could just ignore this comment and the thread altogether. No one’s forcing you to read the replies, after all.
Yes, they do make it difficult. Keeping an updated set of {(user, repo, capabilities)} is necessary for correctly implementing "iff you can see it in Github you can see it in Devlog". Polling this REST endpoint user-by-user doesn't really work — both architecturally (are you going to poll this endpoint? how frequently?) and pragmatically (the REST API is both much slower and much less stable than the GraphQL API, and pagination works poorly.)

I ended up using the GraphQL API and making a query like this:

query($cursor0: String, $cursor1: String) {
search(query:"org:peterldowns", type: REPOSITORY, first: 100, after: $cursor0) {
pageInfo {
hasNextPage
endCursor
}
repositories: nodes {
... on Repository {
id
name
collaborators(first: 100, after: $cursor1) {
pageInfo {
hasNextPage
endCursor
}
edges {
permission
node {
login
id
}
}
}
}
}
}
}

Removing permissions that are no longer present in this result set is left as an exercise for the reader.

I stopped working on the product so I never implemented the event stream consumer that would let me listen for "this user was removed as a collaborator" or "this team no longer has admin access to that repo". The entire permissioning model for Github is extremely complex and learning about all of its intricacies was half the battle.
Law doesn’t matter with this administration.

Conted per day it is certainly more productive. Where I live, the progressive tax system makes the financial impact of not working full time less severe.
There's a hosted test instance with pre-existing test account:

https://github.com/suitenumerique/docs?tab=readme-ov-file#te...

Logging in just works. Easy to try it out there.

The official French hosted instance requiring some French-specific stuff seems pretty normal. Likely specific to that instance's authentication system, not the Docs software itself.
What assuming the package is correct? Sure it could be wrong in its implementation, but one could simulate expected results and compare the output of the tool if one doesn't trust that the community of data scientists nerds have somehow missed that the storied louvain package or whatever else is incorrect for years.
“QWERTY wasn't designed to solve type bar jamming” [pdf]
Well, the EM field CAN be quantified. Just look up any textbook on quantum field theory. And the quanta of the EM field is called the photon.

But, to "solve" the wave /particle conundrum, I like to think of it as fields all the way down. A "particle" is then a localized and quantisized interaction of said field with another field.

If you think of particles as small billiard balls flying through space on some ballistic trajectory, you'll soon run into all kinds of trouble and the mental model breaks down.
In Jetbrains you select a line of code and say "show history for selection" and it parses all that for you and just gives you a history of commits affecting that specific line. It's got a built in commit browser and visual diff tool.

You could think of it as an effort to unify the way people speak English in the US. Not a bad idea I think, if it works. Less "otherness". I read somewhere that many people with Brooklyn accents were taking lessons to get rid of their accent.

I had som much fun when I met this girl who spoke like the girl in "My Cousin Vinny". It was so "authentic". The cool thing about US is that there are so many immigrants who speak English but they speak it in their own accent. But I think it is only natural that eventually they will all speak more like each other.
> Many people who first entered senior roles in 2010-2020 are finding current roles a lot less fun.

This resonates with me.

I find that the current crop of new tech (AI) produces a lot of cognitive dissonance for me in my day-to-day work.

Most initiatives/projects/whatever around AI seems to be of the "digging your own grave" variety - making tools to replace software engineers.

Definitely not fun.
For getting potential customers, I believe "Vancouver-based cloud consulting firm, specializing in DevOps, cloud engineering, and AWS/Azure/GCP solutions" should be your primary SEO target over Autimo. Focussing on Autimo might not drive new customers or website visits effectively.
An interesting question is if/when there will be big protests. Ignoring a judge is a breach of constitutional order, and if people don’t speak up for Venezuelan “gang members”, it becomes normalized, and quickly can escalate. I think we’ve all been waiting to see how long it would take to get here (if ever). Now what next???
I did it some time ago. It works at low levels. Doing it in hard cases is non-trivial but possible. It's difficult to monetize that's why nobody is doing it seriously.
Had a similar comment on starting reality mode.

One issue that arrive after a few minutes that's related, is the map arrows to be able to scroll around would often vanish. Going to the zoomed out overview map would eventually have the navigation return, yet kept occasionally happening for some reason.

Fun game, although world got flooded pretty much instantly, so was a bit of a downer. Still not sure if trade routes actually do anything other than explore the map. Did not ever seem to actually connect to nearby structures.

Be nice if there was some way to zoom out one level at least. Really... wanted to be able to zoom out after having 5-10 structures.
We are talking about Homo genus; I expect they had language (do we know?). The issue was communicating with others who speak a different language, and my point is that people manage it all the time.
You say shenanigans don't really happen, I posit they are routine in business and consultants are paid a lot of money to uncover the next shenanigan every day. The law is always lagging the action it is designed to stymie and we certainly don't have a utopia going on outside the window today.
For PR outrage/attention, just like most of the things he does and says.

If you keep trying to apply normal rational expectations to the current administration, you’ll always be ‘surprised’ at what they actually do.
I've been wondering the same thing. Been blogging and posting on Reddit + Freelancer Seeking Freelancer threads on HN but nothing came up so far. Don't know if it's because I'm using an old tech-stack (Python + Django) or if my communication needs improving.

It's definitely tough to get even one client these days.

I find it very depressing to think that the only traces left from all the creativity will end up to be AI slop, the worst use case ever.

I feel like the more people use GenAI, the less intelligent they become. Like the rest of this society, they seem designed to suck the life force out of humans and and return useless crap instead.

I wonder, do you think "hidden" behaviors like this discourage lazier devs from using HTML standards and just use divs for everything and reimplement default functionality with 3rd party UI libs?

People are too economically enslaved to mass protest.
I've always seen A600 more like a budget version of A1200 rather than a new variant of A500: better graphics chip, IDE port, PCMCIA and new look-and-feel of the Workbench 2.04 (at the first sight hardly distinguishable from the Workbench 3.0) gave a taste of something new.
Reframing "Freemium" by charging the marketing department (2013)
Yup, just went with the $3 per GB formula.

GPU should be about $200 at TSMC (400-450mm2).

+ about $150 for the pcb, cooler and other stuff, I didn't consider

Times a 1.6 to 1.75 factor if they like actually being profitable (operations, rnd, sales, marketing, ...).

So about $1.5k, I guess.

Multiply that with a .33 "screw the competition" factor and my initial guess is almost spot on.

.

Real problem:

The largest GDDR7 package money can buy right now is 3GB. That's a 1376bit bus right there. GL fitting that to a sub 500mm2 die.

In the future you could put that amount of vram on a 512bit bus, tho.

Also normal DDR is getting really fast atm. 8 channel can already challenge most vram configurations. Maybe it's time soon to switch back to swappable memory.
