I became a better parent from watching the show.

I take role playing with my daughter more seriously now.

I used to feel a little uncomfortable being really silly (hard after a stressful day).

Now I try to embrace how silly she is and try to play along. It takes A LOT more concentration.

What a wonderful show. Contrast this with Cocomelon, which is basically screen crack for kids.

I hate that my daughter watched one second of Cocomelon!
The goal of this change is to break insecure clients that attempt to connect over HTTP, and thus force them to use only HTTPS (instead of relying on the redirect).
How about spice? I don't know anything about the technical details, but it seems to offer most of the advanced features like usb redirect and I think currently gets video support. It's currently really only used in qemu but I don't see a reason why you can't use it as a general open rdp alternative.
I have some Oracle Pro*C code that is infinitely more pleasant to use when I rewrite it in PHP.

I was replying to "It is a six hour drive from Heathrow to Paris."

I live close enough to LHR to notice the replacement of Boeing/Airbus with Cessna/Pipers from local airfields in the sky today. I also regularly drive to and/from Paris.

It is a six hour drive. But ONLY if you have your car ready, have booked a crossing ahead of time (otherwise you might want to slap another half day on those times), make no stops, you don't end up in a queue at UK customs (1 hour+ not infrequent occurrance). Don't happen to have your car sitting at CDG waiting for you? You'll have to hire one, but you'll be unlikely to be able to take that to the UK so you're then finding somewhere to drop that off and somehow cross as a foot passenger which you can't do on Le Shuttle...

Point being, cross-border travel throws up all of these hurdles which you simply don't have in the US example.

> If the EU takes actions specifically designed to hurt the US, do you think the US wouldn't respond in kind?

The US has started the trade war against EU already, with tariffs on steeel/aluminum - assuming they are still active, Trump seemingly lacks cojones to keep tariffs up once others retaliate.

Not to say the active hostility against EU, by threatening to annex Greenland (which is currently a Danish territory), open support for Putin in his aggression against Ukraine (which threatens Europe) and so on.

At this point the US should be seen as a hostile foreign nation by EU. EU is doing well by tightening the screws against US tech giants. Those companies are possibly a threat to essential infrastructure, and should be treated as such too.
Media like TV shows, etc, is easy to exactly work out how much "it'll make" - in merchandising, movie deals, etc. Especially when established.

Adding a runway to an existing airport is relatively low risk and comparatively cheaper than building a new major airport altogether. Anyone considering the latter will surely look at the Berlin Brandenburg Airport [0], which ran roughly €4 billion over budget and opened nine years behind schedule. Given the dire financial situation of the United Kingdom right now, I would wager this is an incredibly hard sell.

what are you saying?
In any other setting, I would agree. However, most of us here in the US are very unhappy with big tech. The lack of regulation is harming me as a consumer, but as a lobbying-based economy, America affords consumers little to no power. The EU might clearly favor their industries, and be overly aggressive in tech where they lack the momentum America has. The lack of any consumer-oriented support in the US makes me root for the other guy. Sometimes, E2E or USBC for the iphone is something I would argue most Americans are in favor for, but big tech refuses to implement to milk the sheep. Famously, lightning was only kept by Apple for so long because of the revenue it generates as a proprietary cable, despite the abundance of usbc cables. That type of monopolistic practices should be shamed, but we need the EU given America refuses to regulate big Tech.

We dealt with some patent trolls back in the 2010-2020 era, for those who have not experienced it, it is absurd. In our case, the patent "troll" was an LLC w/ ~5 members - 2 lawyers, 1 person who owned the original patent, and some spouses. The only "asset" of the LLC was the patent. I think it was around scrollbars or some CSS overflow thing - they sent us a demand/cease-desist letter saying they will sue for $1M and asked for a call. Classic Lawyer call "well, we can make this all go away for $25k." We ended up fighting it a bit because of "principles" by our founder. - in discovery there was something like 1,000 of these exact demand letters they had sent.

The kicker? If you fight back, it costs a ton in legal fees, and even if you win, you can’t recover those fees — because the LLC’s only asset is the patent itself.

Just insane to me we would take a step back like this.
I agree Alexa/Hey Google are generally great at following commands.. but lately I find myself most wanting to use voice primarily for getting quick answers to factual or opinion based questions. There the results are abysmal vs ChatGPT voice.

It also doesn't help that ChatGPT's voice cadence is much closer to sounding like a real human.

Siri meanwhile is still far behind both Alexa and Google Assistant in its basic voice-to-text conversion capabilities -- a pain point I experience everytime I talk into my Apple TV remote to search for content.
People were using alternatives, but you still need to penalize driving because it's a multiagent system. Here's why.

The convenience of driving depends on traffic. If you're the only car on the road then it's very convenient. In gridlock, it's very inconvenient (but also takes the convenience of buses down with it).

So you reach some equilibrium of traffic levels where the marginal person opts for walking / subway rather than driving in all that traffic. But if you could magically reduce traffic, then driving becomes the better option and people take it.

If you want to sustain an equilibrium of lower traffic, you need to add a penalty to driving to stabilize the convenience of being the marginal driver in that equilibrium.

There are knock-on benefits to doing so, including that it makes alternatives to driving such as busses more effective.
Absolutely.

My test for whether something consisting of C keywords, variable names, and symbols expected within the language as per the definition by some publicly agreed standard such as "C17", "C99" or "K&R", abhorring any non-standard extensions, other languages, or practices outside of the provided pre-processor, assembler and linker, and excluding any non-standard keywords that may or may not result in correct output, as pertaining to underlying architectural differences, is "still C" is very simple...

Maybe someone can answer this question for me but I have yet to find a LED bulb that can replicate the 'full spectrum' aka sunlight feeling of a Halogen bulb. I just love the color warmth of Halogen and LED just can't seem to replicate it.

I have have bought a lot of LED bulbs in search of this. Is there something that I am missing or is LED just not capable of producing the same spectrum of color as Halogen? When I look at my items under LED and then look at them under Halogen its like the items become vivid.

The best I could find is this company called "Waveform Lighting" that sells very high CRI bulbs for like ~$20 a bulb (with the second place being Soraa bulbs) both are some of the best LED bulbs I've used but no where near the effect of Halogen. What am I doing wrong?

Nietzsche and Plato were some of the best fiction writers ever produced.

Storytelling, allegory, dramatic dialogue, compelling narratives, and 'myth making' can have different goals - sometimes it's to teach the glory of science. Other times it's about social relationships and how to be a functional human.

Bluey works so well because the combination of kids' entertainment with adult themes and storylines portraying positive role models feels unforced - some folks may not enjoy it, that's fine.
I think the problem is that below 10^-6 there's a pretty broad range of magnitudes that are effectively 'happens to n people every k years (if they try very hard)'. Which makes them rare but not impossible, which is annoying because you can't rule it out but you can't expect to easily reproduce it either.

That does tend to be the best way to think about those probabilities. For any probability you can make it happen If you try enough times or with enough people you can try to force it to happen. Below -6 is a pretty wide range of stuff you can just barely make happen if you have enough people, enough tries and enough time.

It's only once you get to the 'wouldn't happen to 10^10 people in a million years' that you get to the stuff that you can be fairly sure has never happened.
Matt Parker has quite a good video on it [1]. He settles on 10^-19 as something that you can be fairly sure has never happened (deliberately).

As for other stuff in the probability rows, maybe include a couple of well known paradoxes like the birthday paradox. And be clear what you're saying, things like getting dealt a royal flush depends a lot on the type of poker game.

Startups are risky and unionizing won't force them to keep you employed. In fact, it will create an environment of less startups and more large companies with less choices for the employee.

Union heavy countries like Sweden have almost no startup scene and wages are normalized (ie: almost all the same across white collar industries).
Actually, the duality arises from counting (there can be 0 items) and ordering (there is only a 1st item), conceptually. Which is why the year 2000 can and cannot be the start of the 3rd millenium, for instance.

From a GTM perspective, Apple is fine to be behind OpenAI and others. Other than Search and studying, most consumers just aren't finding compelling use cases for a lot of this tech. The news woman herself said it herself that

> I've had iPhone 16 and haven't used any of these features.

Not only did she not use it, she wasn't even sure how she would start to use it. Emoji customization is kinda fun, but hardly a killer offer.

Folks in business are finding a lot of use: Research summation, data structuring, rapid prototyping, copy editing, and all sorts of business-grade use cases are phenomenal. None of them are central to Apple's core business or user experience. Use cases might be found closer to the Macbook/Pro line-up... but most of these are already accessible via a web layer through Chrome/Safari. They're making good use of Apple's performant M-chips. Of course, we all know Siri really should be able to do a helluva lot more than it currently does.

Apple being behind tech-wise is a *huge* risk bc it puts them on the back foot, but short-term not enshittifying their tech with worthless AI use cases may be the right move.

According to the EU's highest court they did and that's all that matters. I think you're trying to say that that if you or the US believes that the EU is wrong regardless of EU decisions the US is justified in attacking.

My original comment is pointing out that the current admin seems willing to bully other countries using international trade.

Why These Mealworms Don't Miss a Meal
When I was a CS undergrad, I used to love to write string libraries.
I agree. I don't know what the solution is either. I've been asking myself this question for some years now.

Last year, after 10 or so years using Node, I concluded that JS in the backend was a mistake and I had mostly wasted those years. I'm currently migrating towards another stack.

It's more difficult for the frontend. Inevitably you end up needing JS unless the project works as static HTML with close to no interactivity. I still haven't properly tested HTML over wire solutions though.
What's crazy is that I doubt the people who live in the area understand why it's so expensive there. It's right next to a pet hospital. Let me tell you, if you're taking you injured pet in and out of a vet clinic, you're going to be willing to pay a lot (as if $5 is "a lot," lol) so the injured pup doesn't have to move very far.

That's exactly the reason why pricing should drive services. The underlying reasoning is so complex, that most of the time you'd never actually be able to understand why things are going for the rates they are.
Ok, so I misread your question.

You're asking why hasn't anyone made something like Docker but with systemd-nspawn as the runtime or "engine".

ACARS is both an application and a (legacy) lower layer suite of protocols supporting it, but modern ACARS versions and CPDLC can use the same underlying digital channel, as far as I understand (i.e. VDL Mode 2).

As a result, many of these tracking sites can capture both, as well as presumably "legacy/analog" ACARS.

One potential problem I see is that if your neighbors are into gardening, they're likely to have had the same type of things do well that particular season. So sure, if your neighbor has some apple variety you don't, you can swap. Or your broccoli for their cauliflower or other Brassica. But it might not mean that much for variety in the end.

But giving food away and getting nothing in return is preferable to having it spoil, obviously. And every situation is different.
Do you have any examples of defamation lawsuits? I've sold two companies, and have plenty of rich and upper-level exec friends, and I have never heard of a defamation lawsuit amongst tech execs.

There is definitely a stupid game where people don't tell it like it is, but in my experience it's because people don't want to deal with HR at all, and so don't do or say anything that might bring a tut-tut from HR. Because people in HR are beyond annoying...

And HR fears a wrongful-termination lawsuit, not a defamation lawsuit.

This is all in the US, though. The UK has quite different libel laws and so maybe lawsuits are more common there.

I don't know, I feel kind of unsafe around drug users. People feel unsafe around people that don't abide by social norms for good reason. For instance, if someone is playing loud music on a subway, that goes against social norms. What other social norms does he refuse to follow? The social norms of personal space perhaps? A pretty high correlation there based on my experience. That's why everyone pretends that nothing is wrong and very few choose the ask this person to be respectful. And when they do, it often leads to violent confrontation.

Also drugs are dangerous. I really don't want to see someone die, pass out, fall or vomit on me.

It's kind of bizarre I have to make this point.
